Rico. territory appurtenant, and that the will of Congress over both is su- preme.
 Congress has by the Spooner resolu- tion, passed through pre-knowledge of the ruling of the Supreme Court, handed over the Philippines to the President, who can be as autocratic there in the matter of tariffs or any thing else as the Czar is in Siberia. The empire may not be fully estab- lished in Alabama, but it certainly is by virtue of the Spooner resolution and the Supreme Court decision in the Philippines. All the fears and charges of the Democrats are shown to have been fully justified. The only thing that can now prevent the establish. ment of a colonial system and an ern- pire is a healthy and robust decision at the polls in 1904.

WEAK JEALOUSY.

From the Boston Herald.
 There are certain colored people who are disturbed because of the promi- hence that Prof. Booker T. Washington Is taking among their race. The Phila- delphia conference of the African Meth odist Episcopal church recently passed a resolution by vote of 101 to that Prof. Washington Is not "one of the greatest negroes of the world" There was hardly g. call, we are inclined to think, even in its own race, for this conference to de- clare it's opinion on that subject. It may signify its own standard of greatness, but even this is not important. There is ideal greatness and there is practical greatness. The opinion under which the race which Prof. Washington represents ,exists at present In our land is that he is the most sensible and superior man that has spoken for 1t In this generation, and 1t will be held, irrespective of the declarations of those who are less supe- rior. less sensible and less practical among his race associates.

Purely a State Matter.

From the Fort Payne Journal.
 From somewhere comes the suggestion that the separation of the school fund be- tween the races would be a blunder be- cause 1t would give Congress a pretext for cutting down Southern representation in that body. This Is certainly a novel proposition. There Is no danger that the convention will adopt any measure look ing to the separation of the school fund, but if 1t did, how could Congress make that an excuse for reducing our represen- tation. The disfranchisement of the negro would furnish Congress with pretext for making a change in our representation but how could the apportionment of the school fund do so? That Is entirely To- cal matter with which not single branch of the national government has anything whatever to do. Should the unlikely hap pen and Congress undertake such a meas- ure as is suggested 1t would simply be an act of revenge by the party in power in retaliation of supposed loss of following in the State by the disfranchisement of a great body of its party. Such an act is hot impossible, however, considering what has been done by the same element in the past.

Establishment of an Empire.

The Supreme Court adjourned with out deciding the Fourteen Diamond Rings, or Philadelphia, case, but the reasoning in the Porto Rico case ap- plies equally s.s well to the Philip pines. Porto Rice ;s declared to be "a territory apturtenant and belonging to the United Sta.eg, but not part of the United States." to be governed by Congress w.tsout limit, because none is named in the constitution. True. the court contraoists itself when 1t says Porto Rico :s protected by the consti- tuition against the exercise of powers "asainst freedom and justice" It says in one breath that Congress can govern Porto Rico to the Russian limit or be- yond. and in the next breath it says it cannot. It is difficult task to con strue such a muddle
 But the administration holds no doubt that under it. it has a free hand under the Foraker act in Porto Rico, and under the Spooner resolution in the Philippines. It will hold no doubt that the Philippines are, like Porto

REV. pR. CURRY WRITES.

To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
 An editorial on Presbyterian Revision" in your issue of the 9Oth instant does the Presbyterian church an injustice which. I am sure. must have been uninten- tlonal.
 After giving correctly the action of the late General Assembly on the subject of revision, the editorial says; When the committee of twenty-one report next May in Fifth Avenue Church in New York, it will be found that Presbyterians do move as well as the rest of the world. It will be found that infants who die without baptism are no longer doomed to the hot place."
 The natural and even necessary infer ence from this statement is that the Pres- byterlan church has hitherto held "that h. fants who die without baptism are damned to the hot place." This Is the very opposite of the truth. The damna- tion of unbaptized infants has been for centuries and is today doctrine Of the Church of Rome: 1t has also been held by high churchmen In the Lutheran and Anglican communions, but never by Pres byterlans As historical fact, Presby- terians were among the first to lift their voice against the "horrible" doctrine of the damnation of unbaptized Infants, as a reference to the Westminster confession of faith will show. This doctrine is se- quence of baptismal regeneration, the be- lief in the necessity of water baptism in order to the regeneration of the soul. Presbyterians have always repudlated this sacramentarian view, and have strongly opposed 1t In ther confession and cate chisms, as a single reference to these will show. As every student of the history of Christian doctrine knows. Calvinism has ever been the deadly foe of sacramentar- ianism in every form, ard has the proud honor In history of breaking forever the yoke of sacerdotalism from the neck of the Christian church.
 As to. the salvation of infants Presby- terians hold and teach that it depends in 70 sense upon any ecclesiastical rite or ceremony, but only upon the free, cleo ting and all-embracing love and mercy O. God in Christ Jesus. The faith. of Pres byterians on this subject isfexpressed in the second Scotch copfession framed in 15SQ, which says: we abhor and detest the cruel judgment against infants dying without baptism" They believe, as the Westminster confession expresses it. that such infants ''are regenerated and saved by Christ through the spirit, who work eth when and where and how he pleas eth.' They cannot believe, as some do, that he who said: Suffer the little chill dren to come unto me, and forbid them not, for of such is the Kingdom of heaven" Shuts the kingdom of heaven in the face of the myriads of infants, who through no foult of theirs have faii- cd to receive the sacramental rite of bap- tisn1.
 The Presbyterian church, MT. Editor, has its just burdens to bear, and it is able and willing to bear them, but I beg that you will not increase them by wrong ly imputing to it the unpopular doctrines of other churches. Very respectfully,
 A. B. CURRY,
 Pastor First Pres Church, City.

NEWEST sTLYE IN WEDDINGS.

N Y. Letter in Pittsburg. Dispatch
 Edwin Markham of Man With the Hoe" fame denied in vigorous terms re- gently that he was a guest at the pe- culiar marriage of Prof. George Heron and Miss Carrie Rand. In accounts of the wedding Mir Markham was Featured, - but the poet and his wife indignantly de- ny that they were present. MT. Mark ham is a firm believer in the marriage re- lation as 1t now stands and is radically opposed to Dr. Herron's ideas on the sub ject." said Mrs. Markham. .'IIe could not lend his presence at the merriage for 1t might be inferred that he endorsed Dr.. Herron's views on the subject"
 The Heron Rand marriage has made a great sensation in New York literary and social circles. The novelty of the eere- mony whereby the principals married themselves" has evoked both appreciation and criticism, Some of the society ac- counts of the wedding are interesting. One paper stated soberly that .the guests drank water and ginger ale at the supper that followed the ceremony, although Richard le Gallienne called for whisky

 burned it.:
 With many a ban the fishermen
 Had stumbled OCT and spurned 1t; And there the fsher-girl would stay, Conjecturing with her brother How in their play the poor estray

CHURCH RUNS A WOODWARD,
om the Boston Posi

From the Boston Post
 Out of work, without money, no bread in the house and children going supper less to bed. were the sad facts staring a man in the face.
 He appealed to the Rev. pr. George S. Anderson, pastor of the Highland Avenue Congregational Church in Somerville. The parson heard his story. It touched his heart. Investigation proved the mans tale of woe to be true.
 Then he conceived the idea of establish ing a woodward on small scale. Several cords of wood were purchased and piled up in the big basement of the church. Men out of work and seeking employment were invited to come to the chopping block. t.nfz
 The plan proved success. For every foot of scantling sawed the man with the saw received 200. Two feet. or a quarter of cord, sawed and split, making five sugar barrels full. netttd the worker soc. This was considered fair days work.
 Four of those barrels of kindling are sold for $1. Members of the church buy them This pays the first cost of the scantllngs and the labor besides. No profit is made. The benefit of the deal goes to the man who works.

Cuban Trade and Politics.

The adoptioa by the close vote of 15 to IA of the Platt amendment by the Cuban Constitutional Convention does not of course mean the immediate transfer of the island to the Cubans, or the withdrawal of American troops. Much remains to be done by the Gu bans before they will be allowed to hold and govern Cuba.
 The municipal elections of Cuba will be held today, and the three parties of the island will contend for the control of the chief cities of the island. These three parties are called the National, the Republican and the Union Demo- crat. Universal suffrage is the rule under the new constitution, but today municipal officers will be elected by those who can read and write, or who possess real or personal property to the value of $250 or who possess papers showing that they were soldiers in the insurgent army. The Australian ballot is in use under General Woods military rules.
 Beyond the municipal elections will come the full setting up of civil gov ernment in the provinces as well as iu the island as whole. and treaty em-  bodying the Platt amendment and ceding naval stations must be nego- tiated. An interesting question arises in this connection as to reciprocity treaty covering sugar. tobacco and other products. Heife there will be trouble. as powerful interests will be aroused. and will fight any treaty that attacks their special privileges. And yet without reciprocal trade relations much of the trade of Cuba will be lost to this country. The gratitude of the Cubans does not extend to trade, and the protectorate will not help us in securing it.

FLOWER OF MIR. HILLS RANcoRs
the sprlngfleld Republlcan.

From the Springfield Republican.
 The fact that Justice White, Demo- crat, appointed to the bench by President Cleveland. could have transformed the majority of the court in favor of the im- perialism of the Mckinley administration into majority of the court against the cumstances under which the Louisiana jurist reached the bench of the Supreme Court of the United States.
 In the winter of 1S93-4 President Cleve- land nominated Mir. Hornblower, one of the foremost lawyers of the New York bar. to the bench of the United States Su- preme Court. This nomination was bit terly contested and finally beaten in the Senate by Senator David B. Hill for per- sonal and factional reasons. President Cleveland then nominated Wheeler II. Peckham of New York. another eminent lawyer, and Senator Hill, for the same personal and factional reasons, secured his defeat In both cases MT Hill had no Justification for his course. except in so far as his personal enmitles justified him.
 After the defeat of both MT Hornblow- CT and MT. Peckham. the President de- termined to make no more selections from the State of New York. and he then turned to MT. White of Louisiana and nominated him to the vacant place on the bench because he came from the far south and also was a member of the Sen ate at that time, and therefore likely, through Senatorial courtesy, to be con- firmed at once. This is not saying that Mr. White was not an able lawyer. but of course the country Is full of able law yers, and the facts are that he reached the bench solely because of the personal rancor of D. B. Hill toward the Cleveland wing of the New York Democracy.
 But what has all this to do with the decision of the Supreme Court In the Por- to Rican cases? Just this: If William B. Hornblower had been allowed to take his seat upon the bench of the Supreme Court. there is scarcely A doubt that he would have taken an opposite view from the one taken by Edward D. White. Only a few months ago MT. Hornblower de- livered an address which showed very clearly that, in his opinion, the legal and constitutional theory upon which im- perialism is based was not valid and sound. David B. Hill is responsible for the fact that Justice White is on the bench of the Supreme Court; he is re- sponsible for the fact that MT. Hornblow- CT Is not there, and. consequently, he comes as near as any man living, outside of the court itself. to being responsible for the queer and discordant medley of judicial opinions by which the court has been brought-5 to 4-to buttress the cause of imperialism and declare that millions of people can be held under the American flag without any rights or guarantees which the United States gov ernment is bound to respect.
 It Is a striking outcome of the personal rancors of David Bennett Hill.

Peaches and Lemons.

The peach orchard area in Alabama is being extended steadily, and Shelby and other nearby counties are now be- ginning to attract attention in the peach market" said Col E. L, Higdon, who is successfully cultivating this best of all fruit. The colonel has this year an orchard of five or six thousand bearing trees. and he intends to have 15, GOO trees by 1903.
 Many peaches are falling from the trees-the result of the cold snap a month ago-but a good percentage will remain on the limbs and ripen,' said Col Higdon, "and the crop will be all the better for this thinning out of the green fruit
 Tt is estimat"S mat the Alabama and Georgia~crop will be forty per cent less tt>n last year; but I predict that the peaches will be much larger in size and of finer flavor than they have been in several seasons Dast.'
 Colonel Higdon. who is an accepted au- thority on Hines and lemons. says that limes which are now coming from Hon duras and selling at 1Kc wholesale, will drop to q4o when the Florida crop gets on the market. The lime was commercial ly insignificant few years ago, but it is cultivated and handled on a large scale now, and is a lively rival of the lemon.
 Birmingham consumed about 5000 boxes of lemons last year. and this year the figures will probably reach 60O0. There are usually three hundred and sixty lemons in a box. The summer prices for Birmingham will range from s to s350 wholesale.

PRESIDENTS CIGARS.

From the Chicago Record-Herald.
 President McKiniey's cigars have cost him a small fortune since the time he first became a member of Congress. For fourteen years he has patronized W E. Chandlee, who has known several genera tions of great men. and who for thirty-six years has presided over the cigar stand In tho F street front of the Ebbitt House. MT. Chandee said:
 While he was a member of Congress MT. Mckinley was one of my best custo- mers He always bought one brand of cigars. in boxes of fifty. They had Hay ana filters and Sumatra wrappers, and cost him g hundred He used the same cigar when at Canton, I used to ship them to him In 800 lots. At the rate of fifty week for fourteen years you can see 1t would amount to 36.400, at a cost of S254S."

Should Be In Reason.
From the Selma Times.

From the Selma Times.
 While a poll tax would be fair and just requisite for the privilege of voting at elections, yet the tax so required should be within reason. Ex-Governor Jones has introduced some suffrage resolutions in the convention which, among other ex- travagant requirements, makes it obliga- tory upon every voter to pay $4 on or before the 18th of January in each year as a requisite for the privilege of voting This amount would not only nook out the negro vote but would as effectually of necessity disfranchise one-half the white vote. Tax payers who pay s annual taxes on property are to be exempt from this tax. This s4 is called "a contribution to the school fund" and Is not to be con- sidsred aSpoil tax, and we suppose those subject to a poll tax must also pony up this contribution" If we are correct In our interpretation the man who fails to
