SAYS SILK GOWN IS FOUND.
st. Louis Man Claims to Have Le-
Gated Noted Brood Mare.

st. Louis. Mo, Jan. 1S.-A St Louisan
claims to have discovered Silk Gown,
the long lost dam of Garry Hermann,
the mare sold without name by the
Kentucky Breeders association before
Garry Hermann won fame and rank as
one of the greatest 2-year-olds ever bred
in America.
Scarcely had the unsightly, ilI-favored
dam OF Garry Hermann been lost to
sight than her son began to distinguish
himself. He was considered one of the
best colts in the country until he be-
came a bleeder, and was at one time
valued at $4,000. For three years,
therefore the free lances of the racing
world have been trying to find the dam
of the great racer, realizing that, name
less as she was sold, she would be pur-
chasa BILE for q song and sold for at least
5000. could her identity be proven.

received word from Schlischter in Buff
fal0 that the latter had succeeded in
his mission to bring Frank Erne and
Joe Cans together in a six-round bout
at Philadelphia February 10.
The last meeting between these two
worthless took place before the Broad

IS, 1900 1t was fierce fight, with the
chances favoring Cans until the twelfth
round, when Erne forced Cans to quit
after binding him. Since then Here
ford has been offering all sorts of in
ducements to Erne for another bout,
but was unsuccessful until now.
Cans was delighted when informed

Erne, who now stands as the lightweight

Erne out in six rounds.

No Call for Johnston.

birmingham News.
If the administration of government
in Alabama for the past two years had
been inefficient. or scandalous, there
would have been a necessity for an OPP
position candidate to Governor Jelks, but
that candidate in any event should not
have been a man already twice Gov
ernor of the State There are other
to remedy any abuses which might exist.
However, the record of the Jelks adj
minstration. instead of being OF II char
acter to incite opposition, is entitled to the
hearty commentator of all good citizens.
Ii compares more than favorably with
ton. No criticism has or can be made
of it, 1t is entitled to the endorsement
always awarded to faithful and efficient
service.
Former Governor Johnston's candidacy
therefore. is but a political move. 1t is
mere striving after office, struggle for
the flesh-pot.
The State is in better condition. the
political atmosphere is purer and the
future of Alabama more roseate thar
ever before In its history. If the State
is to have progress instead of retro
gression, if it is to advance instead OF
retreating If it is to move on to granc
destiny instead of relapsng into condi-
tons which hampered and retarded 1t:
onward march, the Democrats OF Ala
bama must eschew personal and tactiona
politics, they must stand by the new
constitution and endorse an adminlstra'
ton which has reflected credit upon the
State.
The question FOR the voter is whether
he shall cast his ballot to satisfy the
polItiacl craving of an overly ambitious
candidate at the expense of the political
peace and general welfare of the common
wealth or vote for peace, prosperity, Sooo
government and better politics.

THE RIGHT PLAN.

. Birmingham has been suffering recently
from one of the most dangerous phases
Of law-breaking that can afflct any
city: we mean the habit of carrying con-
cealed weapons. AS an effective means
Of putting a stop to 1t we note that
Judge Feagin has announced in very de-
rided terms that after the list day of
October next any man convicted of this
pffense will be fined 800 and sentenced
10 six months hard labor. After the date
mentioned there is to be no alternative
sentence, and no opportunity to get out
Of the Imprisonment by a money pay
ment.
; Judge Feagin has struck the right plan
to break up this evil habit and the only
plan, and if he will rigidly adhere to it,
and insist that all classes and grades Of
men shall suffer the same punishment for
#he same offense. he will do more to
istop tho habit than any official has done
yet The failure to stop pistol toting In
Alabama has been caused solely by the
leniency of the courts and by the favorit-
,dsrn which the law allows in Furnishing Of
tenders. When a Judge sentences a man
10 a fine or Imprisonment he can, If he
has money, or has friends who can fur
pish it, pay fine and costs and go free,
If he is not able to raise the money he
goes to prison or to the chain-gang
This is unjust and unfair, but we all
know it to be true. 1t is putting a money
penalty on the rich and Imprisonment on
the poor 1t is teaching the wealthy man
that he can carry his pistol concealed by
paying for the privilege but the poor
man must be degraded and punished be
cause he is poor. 1t isn't right, but we
all know that it is continually done in
all the courts of the country Judge Fea-
gin has adopted the right method and
his example might well be followed in
Montgomery az well as in other cities.
Birmingham is not the only community
where carrying concealed weapons is a
too common practice, and it is h he hoped
that Judge Feagin will he successful and
that his example will extend to all por-
tons of Alabama, 1t is the only plan
that offers any hope of success, and
should have a fair trial. If it succeeds
in Birmingham it will succeed elsewhere
and should be tried wherever the practice
prevails.

A BLooDTHIRsTY COM LESS
MANI

Congressman Hemenway, of the First
Indiana District, is one of the few men
to fully endorse General Smith extreme
war views. He is a candidate for re-
election and declares that he proposes
to wave the bloody shirt all over his dis
trict. War is a horrible thing" he
says, land the only way to carry it on is
to exterminate the enemy"
There has been a time, and not many
centuries ago. when Hemenways ideas
largely prevailed among those who con-
sidered themselves civilized people. Those
ideas yet prevail among savages, both in
the Old World and the New, but we are
slow to believe that they are to be taken
as fairly representing Goth century civil
ization. Whether General Smiths cruel
and brutal orders were the result of a
lack of reflection or were his deliberate
tai and indefensible and If Hemenway
can be elected to Congress on that kind
of platform, he must have a curious con-
stituency. AS The Indianapolis Sentinel
expresses it in a recent editorial, There
ought to be enough old soldiers in the
First District who have taken part In
war conducted on a civilized basis to
resent his insult and retire him to the
obscurity which ought to swallow him up
forever"
The country generally hoped that when
General Smith was retired the last had
been heard of the matter, and that the
discreditable charges and counter-oharges
in connection with our army in the Phil
ippines would not again be aired through
the press. There was doubtless a great
deal of falsehood circulated in connec-
| ton with the army. but there was GER
tainly enough truth to cause a feeling
of humiliatio among the American peo-
pie at the conduct of some of our of
hcers and soldiers in their treatment OF
| the natives. We may not be able to fully
defend the Presidents course in dealing
with General Smith, but We did hops
| that was the end of it. IF the Genera
is going into the courts, rs we hear II
stated then we may expect to have the
whole matter aired again, ad nauseum
| 1t is to be regretted.

DOUBLE GOLDEN SYMBOL.

The American Newspaper Directory uses GER
balm signs to denote the relative standing and
merit Of the whole field of newspaperdom
which comes under its notice, and one Of these
signs Is the mystic symbol lS] denoting

as thus explained:
Advertisers value this paper more for the
class and quality Of its circulation than for the

Such papers are credited with a single sym

this standard authority. which have BOTH
