ALABAMA EDITORS.

From the Clayton Record: Roosevelt will go to Charleston and receive a South Carolina welcome, the Tillmans to the contrary notwithstanding. He Is the President of a great nation and will be honored and treated accordingly.
 From the Blocton Messenger: Ex-Gov- ernor Johnston seems to have a light following in this county. while Cover nor Jelks Is an unknown quantity, as he Is probably less known, either per sonally or by reputation than any man who ever filled the gubernatorial chair of the state. Possibly tnIs. instead of proving detrimental may work to his advantage in the coming campaign.
 From the Carrollton West Alabamian: The Duncan Miller gang seems to dis like the Alabama accommodations. Mill Ter went through the floor. Duncan went through the window and Edwards has gone through the wall. So far no trail of their whereabouts has been struck.
 From the Brewton Pine Belt News: Hobson may know how to sink colliers, but he would fine Bankhead the biggest and most formidable Merrimac he ever brushed up against if he should try to break into Congress from the sixth dis trict.
 From the Scottsboro Citizen: The De- Kalb Times wants to see full fiedged Republican elected Governor of Alabama The esteemed Times will probably wait many years for the realization of it's cherished dream.
 From the Selma Times: Keep your eye on the A. & A. right of way" re- marked an observant citizen to us yester- day. This being the third time we have been asked to do that we will comply.
 From the Bessemer Workman: From political gossip it would seem that Gov ernor Jelks Is in danger of touching a live wire, If he takes any further action as to a settlement of the muddle of the Third regiment. Really he seems to be in the middle of a bad fix. He has al- ready accepted the resignations of all the field officers of the regiment except the
 
 ing to be reinstated. or threatening to call another court martial. And 1t has ai- so been hinted that if Higdon is turned. the T. P. As and all the Birmingham friends of the deposed colonel will fight the governor to a finish.
 Just how Governor Jellzs is going to keep friends with both the Higdon and the Kyle factions is somewhat puzzling and the outcome will be watched with interest.
 From the Demopolis Dispatch: These royal visits do some good. Chicago is to clean up the streets over which Prince Henry is to pass.
 From the Hanesviiie Hustler: It would have greatly amused or greatly worried such men as Benjamin Franklin to know that time would come In the history of the United States when a mans pri- vate income would be discussed as af- fecting his ability to meet the social obli- gations of a cabinet officer.
 From the Opelika Post: It is now pret- ty we'll conceded that the Hon. Joe John ston of Alabama is willing to serve his dear state once more as Governor.-At- lanta Journal
 There has never been any doubt as to his willingness to serve them at any time. If he announces his candidacy 1t will be up to the people of Alabama whether they are willing for him to serve.
 From the Centreville Press: Miss Stone comes higher than either Pat Grove or Frank Duncan.
 From the Columbiana Shelby Chronicle: It has been remarked says the Waterloo Courier, as a curious fact that a picture of a man has never appeared on a United States coin and that a picture of wom- an has never appeared on postage stamp. An editor, observing this, re- marks that that is why we hug the coin and lick the stamp.
 From the Camden Progressive Era: The wonder is J. F. Morgan does not organize a syndicate and buy up all the land in several of the rich agricultural counties of the state. It seems that Chicagoans have a better appreciation of Southern agricultural lands as an investment than the great financiers of New York.
 From the Greenville Living Truth: The next political fight in Alabama will be fought on the dispensary platform and the friends of the dispensary system are going to produce facts and figures in sup port of what they claim is no longer a theory but a practical system.
