oLD-TIME COOKING.

Discoursing on the succulent subject of 'roas'n ears" and other favorite dishes of the olden time, The Richmond Times says:
 The old stager cannot be made to be- lleve that any cooking is so good as that which used to be done by the camp fire or in the spacious open fire-places, when whole log was thrown on at one time. Certainly they were mighty fine for bar becuing meats or fowls, for roasting corn and potathoes and for baking ash cakes. Alas, modern bills of fare-"menus"-. do not include such dishes as those. Moles the pity; more's the dyspepsia. But times change and we change with them, and it may be likewise remarked that the appe- tite of old age is not the appe:'t Of youth. There are yet some of us whose mem- ories hark back to the days when cooking was done in the open fireplace by the cooks of the prestove period. Whether the cooking was done by the negro mammies, or by the white moth CTS of those who grew up during that period, the memory of the food is the same. It is not simply belief that | most of the food thus cooked was bet ter, for it really was, not merely be- cause some of the dishes thus prepared l nave pCtbillo ODSoleIes or that our tastes have changed, though both these causes may have a little to do with it, but not all. There is no reason to doubt that certain kinds of food are better when cooked in the old way than they are when cooked in the mod ern stove or range.
 The Dispatch left out the johnny cake, a kind of corn bread which was popular fifty or sixty years ago. but which few young people of the present day have ever seen. It was as whole some as it was appetizing, and that is saying all that could be said of any thing eatable. And whether tastes change or not, 1t is a certainty that dyspepsia was not a common ailment in those days, and that among the country people, at least man with
 impaired digestion was rarely to be
 found. There must have been some
 thing in the methods of cooking, as
 we'll as in the food cooked.

whites were never able to find 1t. Whether there was any truth In she tale, we do not know, but we have often heard the old residents of the vi- cinity speak of it, and know that many fof them firmly believed that the mine really existed.
 This was a rather indefinite tradition, but We know of one case. at least where there was something more. Nearly thirty years ago James Johnson died about four miles west of Ashland. Clay County. He was one of the earli- est settlers of that region, and being an expert blacksmith and gunsmith, and a worker in all kinds of metal. his shop was a faNorite resort for the In dfans, who came to get their guns re- paired, and to have ornaments made for themselves and their women. "Un- cle Jimmy" as he was always called, has frequently talked with the writer about the Indians. and stated that they often brought him Jumps of pure silver which he manufactured into bracelets ~''' 'e''S' oi NoI one or them would tell where the mine was, further than that it was lover :here" towards the west They declared that the pen- atty for revealing the secret would be death. and none of them could be pre- vailed on to betray it.
 Uncle Jimmy" was a rigid old Bap- tlst. as stern and uncompromising as one of Cromwelrs Puri,ans, and we never had any doubt of the truth of hls statements. Whether or not he was deceived by the Indians, we canno: tell, but that they brought him native sl- yer, and told him they dug it from the earth. We have no doubt. We have heard many stories and traditions of hidden mines in that region, but none so definite and apparently trustworthy as the Clay tor Talladega County, as It was in that day) statements of Mir. Johnson. It is, not beyond the bounds of possibility that some man may yet strike 1t rich in the hills of Clay, Tal- ladega or Randolph

IRRITATING WOMEN AS VOTERS

In the discussion and settlement of the Suffrage Report by the Constitu- tional Convention. 1t refused to allow women the right to vote on an equal footing with men.
 Yesterday afternoon, however, the Convention after an animated discus sion, inserted an amendment in the Municipal Article giving a certain class of women the right to vote to limited extent.
 The amendment permits women who are property holders to vote on ques- tions of issuing municipal bonds or of mourning obligations Only those wo- men who can comply with the male suffrage qualifications, as to age, good character, educational and property requisites, are admitted to the exercise of suffrage, even on these questions.
 A provision of this kind seems to be just and reasonable. In all our towns and cities there are many women who own considerable quantities of real es- tate and other property. They are large tax payers. and are vitally inter ested in the amount of burdens to be laid upon their property and upon the disposition of the taxes they pay. It may be said that they usually nave male relatives, who can voice their views at the ballot box. So they may have in many cities, but not in all. Rut those relatives have their own in-
 cannot CASt but their one vote each. The womans s property, at last, is really Voiceiess in the settlement of burdens to be put upon it, if she is kept from the polls.
 It may be said that few of these women will vote, if permitted. That Is true of many men, and IS not an effective argument. If the female property owner is given voice in tax ing her property, and chooses not to exercise it, that is her affair.
 This provision is similar to one in the new Louisiana Constitution, which is as follows:
 r-ron oil nuestions submitted to the tax navers as such, of any municipal or other poiitical subdivisions of this state the Qualifications of such taxpayers as voters shall be those of age and residence pre- scribed by this article, and women tax S payers shall have the right to vote a' ar, iI such elections. without registration, III III nerson or by their agents. authorized m writing; but all other persons young ss a' smch elections shall be registered voters.
 This permits womens agents to Vo'e for them on tax matters. going farther than the Alabama proposition.
 The matter is to be brought up for reconsideration this morning, but the vote yesterday was decisive-65 to 49. It is not likely that there will be chahse of enough votes to wipe out the amend ment.

THE ELECTION OF SOLICITORS
 nv THE PEOPLE.

Tn the matter of proVlolnS lot Soo"'' Solicitors to be elected by the peopie' in place of Circuit Solicitors elected oS 4ha Legislature, we believe the Consu- .,,4;onal Convention has made serl- ous mistake. ,,,i.
 The majority report of the Commit tee on Judiciary favored the exis'ine svstem of electing Circuit Solcitors pS the Legislature. The minority repoi proposed the radical change. Ana yet this Convention, extremely conserva- tive in most matters. has gone over the heads of the maJol- ity of that able Coiiiiiii and adopted this radical change why tba Convention has done this IS nara to see. All sorts of reasons were lh'i- mated in the discussions, among them the existence O. many candidates for the new positions among the delegates themselves. Surely this can't be the reason, Some delegates may be Work- ing for their friends, but certainly they can't be building nests for them- selves.
 
 against this change. The first is the fundamental error, it seems to uS' ol making court officers, who are 10 ao- minister the law. dependent on the peo- n,a for their positions. They ought to hn entirely independent of the favor of the people, so that they coulu oe nerfectly bold and fearless Tn doihs their duty. For our part, we 'i'ihN that judges should be selected o'liei- | nt,v from the way they have beeh' rha tendency of the system of populal elections is to take the backbone out of those on the bench. Where are many judges in Alabama who dont u's- Charge their full duty under the la"' bacause they are looking either 10 re- election or to promotion to some more attractive office. To extend the syS'ein to the election of Solicitors IS so'he from bad to worse. =
 Another reason is that the change ls goinp to pile up the cost or the "A-
 ,,,t,.r.+ion of the law. It will make soft places for dozens more or oliioei'' There are too many county anu ueP'''' solicitors now in the State. In some ooses like Calhoun and Madison there ara several Solicitors in a county, one for each court. The tendency Of the measure Is to provide easy places' "l'h small work, at good pay. in many ln- stances.
 Many other reasons could be @u- varced against this adoption of the old radical day system, But the foregoing amo su4icient. for they go to the root .ho matter. We believe the Con- vention has made a serious mistaNe II thus creating so many new ohices ahc weakening the vigor of prosecuting or, fcers. It is to be hoped that before Ii finally adopts the new instrument a' a whole, it will undo this mistake'

L1oNIzING CRIMINALS.
In recent exchange we find this ps


 agraph:
 The Younger brothers. lately released from jail in Minnesota, are said to be seriously embarrassed by being made the objects of what Is euphemistically called social attention meaning that they are overwhelmed with invitations to dinners, rides. etc.
 It is possible that these men really object to being made objects of con- spicuous attention and that, if let alone, they would be content to live out the remainder of their lives in quiet obscurity. If so, it is creditable to them; but what shall we say of the people who are thus intent on making social lions of them? There have been few more thorough criminals in the United States than were Cole and Jim Younger. They were robbers and mur- derers without excuse, and their career for many years was such as to put them beyond the pale of law or hu manitN yet. instead of being hanged as they richly deserved, they were inn prlsoned and now, having secured a pardon, they are being made social lions of by the people of Minnesota a. If they have really repented of their crime and are sincere in their desire to live quiet and creditable lives in fu- ture, they should be allowed 10 do so and the cranks who are trying to lion ize them ought to be suppressed

LOST SILVER MINES.
rho Rlrrningham Ledger says:

The Birmingham LeuSer e"SS'
 A Tauadega man who knows he hlLi country between the Coosa and Birmlng ham has become interested in the oIo story of an Indian silver mine Tn those % mountains near where St. Clair and Shel- by join. The Indians got silver near there by the pony load as late as iSS1. but they would not reveal or sell thelr secret.
 These traditions of silver mines in Alabama are not unusual. At the little village of Ilowina, on the Tallapoosa River in Randolph County, there was an Indian town or settlement practi- cally under the control or management of the wife of an Indian chief, She was named Louina, and it was said that when she departed with her tribe for the West, she carried with her a nonv loaded with silver. The Indians declared that there was rich silver mine in that vicinity. but they would never tell where it was, and when they left the country they filled up and hid the mine so effeGtUallx that the

ROdnOke Leader.
 The Leader is dsgusted with a number Of Democratic papers in Alabama in their action towards the Constitutional Con veltion. They have yielded to popular clamor and indulged in impatient criti- Cism of the work of the convention, some times amounting to wholesale denuncia- tion, till they have actually on iangered the prospects for the ratification of the Constitution. It is silly O denoInce every thing the convention has done beca lse it may have made one or two mistakes or because it has taken a little more tlme in doing it than You like. The great ob- iect of the convention Is to eliminate the corrupt voters from our politics and give us honest elections. and this has been ad- mirably. though not perfectly, lone We who love good government ana v'hite supremacy should be willing to waive all minor objections and support the Ccnsti- tuition for the great reform it contains on the suffrage. We believe, moreover. that the new instrument will contain many other improvements-in fact, We Know it will. Let us. as a fair intelligent jury. wait till the work of the convention Is completed. and the rubbish cleared d way, then let us examine carefully it's merits and demerits and pass upon 1t in an hon est, patriotic manner.

Ella Wheeler Wilcox says she believes that children inheric the suppressed rendencies of their parents" That theory not only puts us entirely at sea, but tends to mix up things beyond all hope of amendment. How are we to know what are suppressed tenden- cies?" If they are suppressed. they are certainly not apparent and we can tell nothing about them. Then, aga.n, according to that theory, the children of the most thorough criminals ought to be saints and the children of all our best people should be criminals of the worst type, Ella talks nonsense.
