Hanna on Birmingham.

This district gets a great deal or Tree and helpful advertisement, but nothing said in behalf of this section has been better calculated to advertise Birmlng- ham than the remarks of Senator M' A. Hanna which were printed on the hrst page of the Age-Herald over Lucien Julien Walkers signature this morning, ," said an official of the Sloss-Shenlelo Steel and Iron Company last night.
 "No matter what may be said of Hanna as politician. he is recognized as prac- tical business man. What MT. Jeans, the English expert. said in favor of the Bir- mingham district was far reaching in its effect, and no less valuable are Hanna observations.

HONEST ELECTION LEAGUES.

Selma Correspondent Montgomery Ad-
 vertiser.
 Now that the new constitution has been adopted a move is on foot here in Dal- las among the Democrats to form an Honest Election League. One has been organized in Mobile, and several gentle men here interested in honest elections have talked the matter over and have written to Mobile for a copy of the consti- tuition and bylaws of the organization in that city, with view to forming similar society in this city. For many years past there has been a quiet revolt in the blackbelt against frauds in cleo tions. It was tolerated because it could not be helped. The negro preponderance over whites made it necessary to resort to the manipulation of ballots in order to keep the white man on top. The Dem ocracy of this section felt it to be their duty to manipulate the negro ballot for the good of the white race, and many a man who read his Bible and said his prayers regularly would pray God the night before the election to enable him to go to the polls and do his full duty toward keeping good and pure men in office through the changing of the ballots.
 To keep down two parties some think ing Democrats are of the opinion that now that we have no black hordes to con tend with, that it would be better to do away witm primaries and conventions for county officers altogether, and let the applicants for the different positions fight it out at the polls in the general elections. This idea is gaining a good many adherents, and there is no telling what the idea may lead to in year or two. One thing is certain, however. and that is that no negroes will be registered here in Dallas county who cannot comply fully with the provisions of the new constitution. After two or three negroes have applied in the precinct and been and keep away from the appointments of the registrars.

REFLECTIONS OF A BACHELOR

From the New Iork ress
 Every man invests in experience; few men draw dividends from it.
 Set thief to catch a thief, but not drunkard to catch a dunkard.
 If you wait to laugh last generally you won't have anything to laugh at

THE eRoUND-Hoe AS A PROPHET

From the New York Sun.
 If the groundhog came out in the neigh borhood of Philadelphia yesterday he saw his shadow for there was an hour Jf sum- shine in the afternoon; if he appeared in these parts he cast no shadow.
 If Candlemas day be bright and fair The half O winters to come and mair; If Candlemas day be wet and foul The half O winters gang at Yule."
 The groundhog, by general consent, de- cides this question of foul or fair; so if they go by the old saw in Philadelphia there is bad winter weather ahead and plenty of it; while If New York has faith in the groundhog, we should expect an early spring The fact is, the grounding is always a true prophet-if not in one place, then in another.
