THE pREs1pENr,s MISTAKE.
The Advertiser fully endorses this from The Memphis Commercial-Appeal:

The Advertiser fully endorses this from The Memphis Commercial-Appeal:
 This is a white mans country. It will continue to be such as long as clean blood flows through the veins of white people, The negro will remain in the South. He belongs there. This is his home. He is entitled to his rights under the law and the men who stand for white supremacy are the strongest advocates of granting him these rights. But beyond that they will not gc; from this the power of the whole earth cannot make them recede. The example of President or potentate cannot change their views. Their reasons are good and sufficient. If some coarse fibred men cannot understand them it is no concern of the Southern people. Suf- flcient answer to them is that race su- premacy precludes social equality
 That paragraph expresses a great deal in a few words. It is the sentiment of the Southern people. They see no cause to depart from it, and they will not. | While the President recognized the best negro in the United States as his social guest, he made a grievous mistake be- cause there is not and cannot be any equality on such lines. We do not be- lieve one man in a thousand anywhere | in the North or West, would do such a thing. It is something no other President | ever did. At any rate, the people of this end of the country endorse Abraham Lincolns position. which he stated in these words in his memorable debate with Stephen A. Douglass in 1858:
 am not nor ever have been. in favor of making voters or jurors of negroes, nor of qualifying them to hold office, nor intermarrying them with white people, | and l will say, in addition to this, that there is a physical difference between the white and black race, which. l believe, will forever forbid the two races living | together on terms of social end political equality-and, inasmuch as they can not so live, while they do remain together, there must be a position of superior and inferior, and I. as much as any other man, am in favor of having the superior position assigned to the white race.

GOOD ADVICE FROM OREGON.

On the question of building roads. Gov ernor William P. Lord, in a message to the Oregon Legislature, said:
 All road taxes should be paid In money. and the present system of working out road taxes at extravagant wages under often selected without refer ence to their qualifications. should cease.
 When Governor T. T. Geer was Chief Executive of the State he showed a keen interest in roads and appreciation of the way to get good ones. He said in a mes sage to the Legislature:
 There are many roads in Oregon that have been travelled regularly for more than thirty years through thickiy settled communities and that have never been so nearly impossible as during the last year. While our people are a unit as to the necessity and desirability of bet ter roads, it is not possible to bring about that condition until our present system is wholly revolutionized and our road taxes are collected the same as other taxes, to be disbursed under the intelli- gent supervision of some competent per- son authorized by each county to look after the roads of that county.
 The Southern Railway Company is starting a good roads train through its territory, and those localities which will be visited will have the opportunity of lesrping many valuable lessons in road building. It is scheduled to reach Mont gomery December 5th.

MAKE ANARcHIsTIC TALK UN-
 SAFE.

In a recent communication to The Phil adelphia Saturday Evening Post, MT. Cleveland said that while ordinary crim- inals are under police surveillance all the time. the people of America cannot understand why anarchists, whose oia- bolical character and teachings are or ought to be we'll known, are allowed to plot and conspire until bloody assassina- ton strikes down the embodiment Of ben eicent rule and shakes the foundations of lawful authority"
 Commenting on this statement, The Kansas City Journal. which endorses MT, Cleyeland's position on the subject, says;
 And they never will understand it, be- cause it is illogical, inconsistent ana foolhardy. If it is right and just to de- prive vagrants and disorderly persons or their liberty on account of offenses which they may commit it certainly is doubly right and doubly just to restrict the H. cense of avowed anarchists on account of much greater crimes which they pubhcly incite and secretly plot. The rights ot free thought and free speech were never intended by the framers of the nationa Constitution to give immunity ana pro lection to the Governments protesseo | enemies.
 | We consider it altogether probable, Il not certain, that there will be sucf changes in our laws as will make th' teaching and promulgation of anarchisti' sentiments a very unsafe business in tn
 United States. A Government has tn
 right to suppress dangerous characters.
The Montgomery advertiser., 1901-10-20
WHY IT SHOULD BE RATIFIED.

The following words, which form the
 conclusion of the address of the commit
 tee appointed by the Constitutional Con- of every Alabamian:
 Those who framed the new instrument did not forget that it was the work or the dominant race. and should secure the Just rights of the weaker race as well. They have not concealed from the world the conviction that the welfare of both races is secured and enhanced by keeping the control and direction of the government in the hands of that great race, whose blood and sacrifices founded our repub- lie and gave free institutions to America. Neither have they builded Constitution for a great State along the lines of race hatred or unworthy prejudices The pur- pose of the new instrument Is to protect the weaker as we'll as the stronger race.
 The beneflcent aims of the new instru- ment have far higher inspiration than the fate or fortune of political parties. We appeal to men of every political faith, who set the welfare of the State above partisan considerations. The new instru- ment is born of the yearning of our civil ization to lift itself to higher and better things. The ratification of the new Con- stitution will promote public and private morality, strengthen justice. secure peace restore confidence, give nobler inspiration to our children, and lay stronger founda-
 tions for our happiness and prosperity.
 To refuse to ratify it, is to give ourselves to despair, and plung Alabama back into the darkness from which the people hope
 to escape. It would proclaim to the world | that our people, for the first time in their | history, either do not desire to contend
 against the vicissitudes and trials of their | times, or else are lacking in the intelli-
 gence and manhood which would save | them.

What It Costs Schley.

Baltimore Sun.
 The Baltimore Suns Washington cor correspondence is authority for the state ment that at a conservative estimate the court of inqury can not thus far have cost Admiral Schley less than 20000 and that the expenses to which he has been put will not only swallow up all the prize money which he has received from his connection with the destruction of the Spanish fleet but much of his private hood. Is it not rather a discouraging ing that his private fortune is but meager; that he is, indeed, a poor man. dependent upon his salary for liveli- hood. It is not rather a discouraging commentary upon the gratitude of re- publics' that Admiral Schley should be called upon to pay out this large sum. or any sum whatever, for the vindication of his reputation, which the vast majority of his fellow countrymen are satisfied needs no vindicaton? The best years of his life have been spent in the service of his country. He has filled many im- portant positions and discharged many trusts. always with honor to the navy and credit to himself and his country. And here at the close of his active career, full of years and honors. he is called upon to defend himself against vicious attacks and unworthy charges.
 The naval court of Inquiry Is for the purpose of protecting the reputation or the officer before it. as well as for pro- tecting the governments interests The judge advocate of that court Is nominally the legal adviser of the court, and is supposed to be impartial in the collec- tion and presentation of the facts in the cause at issue; but in the Schley case, as has been apparent from the first, the judge advocate stands in the position of a prosecuting attorney. He is seek ing to convict, rather than to assist in holding the scales of justice evenly. And in this he has had the aid of assistant counsel and a number of clerks. Admiral Schley has neither counsel nor clerks that he doesn't pay for. This being true, has the Navy Departments moral obligation to afford protection to Schley been dis charged? Except for the employment by Schley of special counsel. is there any doubt as to what impression would have been made upon the public mind, if not on the court, but the judge advocates presentation of the case? In view of the circumstances, and in the event of clean vindication of the rear admiral. 1t would seem to be nothing more than an act of justice to a brave, honorable and successful officer for Congress to return to him every dollar that he has been obliged to pay out on account of this court of inquiry.

IN A RAD WAY.

The Geneva Reaper Is about the widest one in the corral. It claims to be Ter ninst'' the new Constitution and strains its diaphragm in its efforts to find some valid argument against it, in which it hope left in this view:
 There is only one and the best consola- tion-the whites can unite after the per- formance, and elect Stallings for Gov ernor and Shelley to the Senate. How about 1t?
 If that Is the only hope or consolation The Reaper has for the future. then is the outlook gloomy indeed. True. 1t is not a hard strain on the imagination to look for the white people of Alabama to get together, but they will be on the side of the new Constitution, let us assure you. Stallings and Shelley stand about as much show for the offices you speak or as they do for crossing the ocean in street-car They have had their day and were both rejected by the people of Ala bama when Democrats were much more divided than they are now. They will not ride into power by defeating ratification and after the election is over those who carry it will not discredit their course by giving high offices to the leaders of the opposition. Keep that fact before you.
 It is no discreiit for a newspaper to be on the weak or losing side if 1t knows itself to be right. but when the weak side is also the wrong side, as in the case of newspapers like The Reaper and very few others in Alabama. their plight is a sad one and the outlook gloomy. That negro convention at Birmingham made The Reaper sick at the stomach ana rave if an excellent excuse for putting itself on the right side, but 1t falieo to take advantage of it, and now it will go down in defeat without the consolation or feeling that its position was correct.

Siberia a Land of Destiny.

National Geographic Magazine.
 From the dawn of creation up to the present time Siberia has been waiting even as North America waited through the ages for the States that were to arise within its boundaries. In 1888 it's real col onization began, when 5000 immigrants crossed its frontiers. Now there are more than 250,O00 annually While excluding un- desirable persons the government adopts generous measures toward worthy immi- grants. To every family, when desired, it advances S25 for the expenses of the journey, assigns gratuitously forty acres to each man on his arrival and further promises to assist with a loan of $50.

Were Rudely Shaken.

MODiIe ReRlster.
 Lord Roseberry advises his countrymen to initiate the "devouring anxiety" of the Americans to accumulate fortunes at the sacrifice of leisure and repose." The ex-Premier's advice is somewhat un- timely. It was due many moons ago. The leisure and repose" of the British manufacturers were some time ago rudely shaken by the "devouring anxiety" of the Americans to capture the markets of the Old World
