No National Holiday,

"The majority of men look surprised when you tell them that this country has no national holiday" said a lawyer yes- terday.
 Good Friday is legal holiday in this state and in a few other states. Christ mas and the Fourth of July are legal hol- idays in all the states and territories ex- cept Mississippi, but by common con- sent those days are observed in that state just as if it's Legislature had made 1t 20. New Years day is legal holiday in all the states except Massachusetts Mississippi and New Hampshire Every Saturday after 12 o'clock noon is a legal holiday in New York, New Jersey, Penn sylvania, Maryland, Virginia, Tennessee in the city of New Orleans and New Castle County, Del, except in St. Georges Hundred
 The World Almanac has this to say about holidays: There is no national hol- idays, not even the Fourth of July. Con- gress has at various times appointed spe- cial holidays In the second session of the Fifty-third Congress 1t passed an act making Labor Day a public holiday in the District of Columbia, and 1t has recog- nized the existence of certain days as hol- idays, for commercial purposes, but with the exceptions named there is no general statute on the subject. The proclama- ton of the President designating a day of thanksgiving only makes 1t legal hol. iday in the District of Columbia and in those states which provide for 1t by Ia

Death of a Learned Precher.

''The Rev. Henry Tupper. D. D., of Richmond, Va, who died on Thursday at the age of "A, was truly consecrated man and a minister of a large variety of gifts said a Baptist layman yester- day.
 There have been few Baptists in the South more widely known or more af- fectionally regarded by his brethren than Dr. Tupper. As corresponding secretary of the foreign mission board for twenty five years, he proved himself to be a man of excellent Judgment and business sense A man of studious habits and high at tainments he was an uncommonly at tractive preacher, although he was at the disadvantage of having a weak, thin voice. The Baptist ministry has developed many great divines, but not many who had a stronger hold upon the regard of the church than Dr. Tupper."

HOW CAN THE DEMOCRATS WIN?

From the New York Evening Journal
 This question interests Democrats and all other unselfsh men.
 It is a very interesting question: one that has been before the people for a long time.
 The question is really this: How can conscience win against selfish interest?
 The American nation Is essentially a business nation, and, like the business in divdual. the American nation Is divided into two parts. which may be called the heart and the pocket.
 Recently the pocket has been much the bigger and abler of these two parts, and is has been almost universally victorious
 There is much to be said fin favor of the pocket, and it Is not to be wondered at that the pocket has been successful. In this world of striving. of uncertainty, the pocket is THE important thing of the day. The heart can wait When mans pocket Is empty his heart is sad. When his pocket Is full his heart usually manages to cheer up some how.
 Those who vote for trusts, for monopo- lies, for the giving away of franchises for the installation in power of arrogant men with no trace of true republicanism about them, are troubled by their con- sciences.
 But their hearts say: "Go ahead; don't take any risks for my sake" and the pocket party is elected. The Democrats can win-that is to say, principle can rule the country again-un- der certain conditions. First men or issues must be found suf- | ficiently big to make the average citizen forget his pocket on voting day. Or, bet ter still. men and issues must be found to reconcile the pocket and the con- | science.
 l At present, in our national enterprise. which Is really a huge grocery store | things are going along pretty smoothly
 There are no great issues, and if there are any great men they are not visible
 The small grocery store clerks, the av- craze citizens, are not satisfied; they nev- CT are. But they are making a living; they feel pretty safe, and their main idea is to keep their jobs.
 The owners of the grocery store-the great capitalists-are getting rich very fest; they are supremely happy they are moderately generous with the clerks
 There does not really seem to be any great demand for a change. The average citizen will reject the greatest improve ment in the world provided 1t hurts HIM a little, TO matter how much 1t may help the majority.
 The Democratic party can win by find irg an isbue big enough really to interest the people; by finding a man big enough to persuade the pockets that they won't suffer If they give the heart a chance for four years.

Steel Mills.

Speaking of the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad Company's steel plant at Ensley. it may be remarked with some in- terest that steel works as rule fall to give satisfaction at first" said a Pitts- burg man at the Morris.
 "I have had good deal to do with steel works, and most of the plants that l call to mind had to be experimented with long time before they were dividend earn CTS. The great Edgar Thompson works near Pittsburg were fully two years get ting into shape. For some time 1t was thought they would never be any account. But after the mistakes had been corrested and the experimental stage passed, they behaved in a model way. And so 1t has been with many others, and so It will be at Ensley.
 Improvements are noted at the Ensley works now and other improvements will steadily follow. It is only question of time, I predict when many additional steel furnaces will be built by the Ten nessee Company"

POSTAL CURRENCY.
the Washington Post.

From the Washington Post
 A measure intended Ito prevent rob ping the mall, to provide a safer and easier method of sending money by mall, and to increase the postal revenues" Is pending in Congress and should receive consideration. It's passage would not en- tirely prevent mail robbery, but 1t would reduce the number of such crimes by re- ducing the profits accruing from their successful perpetration. It would cer- tainly provide safer and more convent ent method of sending money by mail, and unquestionabIy would increase the income of the Postoffice Department.
 To adapt these post-check notes to their purpose 1t Is provided that the words payable to bearer on demand" which appear in the notes for which there are to be substituted, shall be eliminated, and in place thereof shall appear the words, Payable to the payee named hereon; payable to bearer if the spaces are not filed" Every device to insure absolute safety appears to have been incorporated in this bill The fact that more than half of all the postoffices in the United States are not money order offices is a sufficient reason for providing this species of cur rency, Instantly transferable into safe money to send through the mails" It will answer every purpose of money in ordinary business and will be changeable into personal check on the United States government by the simple process of writing a name. The saving that the government would effect by substituting these notes for money orders would. 1t Is estimated, be about $60O,000 a year. As an accommodation to millions of persons, the scheme commends itself to general appreciation. ....
 Possibly the pending bill may require some amending, but the purpose is good. and the carrying of 1t out would greatly enhance the utility of the mails. while reducing expenses and increasing net revenues.

Bar Counter Whisky.

There are many honest saloon keepers, of course, but there are many who are not honest" said a business man who when he drinks wants the best. ''I am about to tell you of a species of swind- ling that has long been in vogue among the lowest grade of liquor vendors but which is now becoming common in some of the so-called first class saloons
 T refer to the fraud of refilling. That Is, emptying bottle labeled with cer- tain fine brand and refilling 1t with cheap stuff The other day I called for a drink at a prominent saloon. The brand of whisky I named cost about s5 gallon. The bottle that was handed me looked all right, the legend on 1t read all right. but the whisky l drank was vile. If 1t cost the bar over s1.5O gallon the pro- prietor was stuck. It was the most poi sonous whisky I ever tasted and I have often drunk mean liquor.
 "If 1t is true that large proportion of prominent saloon men are guilty of this practice of ref1lling then I think drinking men ought to get together. They should take some concerted steps, if necessary, to make the saloon people act honestly. These men should certainly know that honestly Is the best policy, any way.
 My Woman's Christian Temperance Union friends will doubtless say the only way to feel safe from the liquor swindle Is to keep away from stimulants altogeth- CT. But even total abstinence agitators must admit that If man drinks he should endeavor to drink the best"

"Guarantors to the music festival ex- pense fund and the members of the Bir- mingham Choral Society have the priv ilege. very properly, of reserving their seats for the great event, which takes place week after next, In advance of the public and many have availed themselves of it." said MT. John L. Parker, secre- tary and treasurer of the Choral Society.
 But the Audit orium, where the festival is to be held, will seat nearly 1000 people, and there will be room for all who come. The reserving of seats for the general putlic will begin next Monday. Then you will see the pig rush. 1 estimate that the receipts of this festival will run consid- erably ahead of those of last year."

A STATE PRIMARY.

Frcm the Jasper Mountain Eagle
 The anti-primary fellows are very much concerned about the welfare of the peo- pie; they always are about election times. They say a primary will put the people to too much trouble; that they should not lose the time from their work. They, the politicians, will attend to the nomination of oandidates-and the rank and file of the party can rest easy until election day in November. The anti-primary fellows have the same idea on this question as the Czar of Russia-that the people have no time or business troubling themselves about politics or government. That they should work and let their superiors do their thinking and run the government.

State Committee Can Call Primary

The Democratic State Executive Committee need not hesitate over the calling of a State primary. It has power in abundance. It is authorized to call the Democrats together, and when it calls all of them together it is certainly doing better than when it calls a few politicians. Let not the Committee be afraid when it works towards instead of away from the people. Let it not hesitate, for it has been written that whoever hesitates Is lost It may offend some of it's own members and several courthouse rings, but it will not offend the Democratic masses of the State, one hundred thousand strong. It will please every man of the great number except the politicians.
 It is all moonshine to say that every aspirant must be represented at the ballot box of primary. Three honest men will suffice, and the count may be and should be made before all who will attend, the more the better. It should be remembered that when a State primary is called the law at once becomes applicable. Fraud at a primary is punishable by fine or i'm prisonment. The officers at each pri- mary must take the oath that election officers take, and responsibility for the proper conduct of the primary rests upon them, and any violation by them of the primary election law is punish

Somethinu Rotten from Denmark

The Christmas present that Con- gressmen Richardson and Underwood laid before the House on Thursday was not only an international scandal, but home shame Walter Christmas was and is, it seems, a diplomatic agent of Denmark, who, under the Danish min ister, had charge of the negotiations for the sale of the Danish West Indies to the United States. He claims to have been also the agent of the United States in the transaction. He pro- posed to catch ducats a-coming or a-gwine. He submitted a secret and confidential report to the Danish gov ernment, but this report did not re- main secret. It came via the press of Denmark to the ears of Messrs. Rich ardson and Underwood, who are espe- cially charged in the House with the duty of making it warm for the admin istration. It must be conceded that they fully succeeded on Thursday.
 The committee appointed to investi- gate the subject consists of four Re- publicans and three Democrats. The three Democrats are Messrs. Richard son, Densmore and Cowherd, and these three Democrats may be able to un- cover some of the things set forth in | Christmas report. A whitewashing report from the majority of the com mittee is of course in order. A scandal that can be utilized in the fall cleo tions must be averted, and the ma jority of the committee will do their best in that behalf.
 The chief surprise is that Denmark would agree to pay anyone 10 per cent of the price for lobby purposes. Long ago Marcellus exclaimed, Some thing is rotten in the State. of Den mark" and Walter Christmas appears on the stage to show that Denmark is still unsound. But our part of the busile ess does not relate to Denmark except indirectly. We have our own rascals to unearth and punish, but, alas, a Republican majority cannot be trusted to do anything of the sort, although Christmas names the per sons, or some of them, that he dealt with, and furnishes many pointers.
