IMPROVED SAILING VESSELS

There are people yet living who can re-
 member the predictions freely made during the first half of the last century to the effect that sailing vessels would soon be unknown. When the power and possibilities of steam navigation were being developed and men began to realize that ship could go without the assist ance of wind or tide, and could go as well against either, or against the currents as it could before them. it was the gen eral opinion that the use of sails would be abandoned and nothing would be seen but steam propelled vessels.
 How erroneous this bcl!ef was is ap- parent. not only from the number of sail Ing vessels now in use, but from their improved character and cspa~ily. In fact there is probably as much advance going cn in the construction of sailing vessels as there is in steamships and boats. One of the magnificent ships of today offers as great a contrast to the

NO EXCUSE FOR IT.

Grandma is trying to hedge, no telling where she'll be at by the time the state Committee meets. Granny was on the right road at first, but something de- sracted. her attention and she wandered.- Eufaula Times.
 There has never been excuse or Jusu- sication for misunderstanding or misstat- ing The Advertisers position on the aues- tion of a primary. There are few newspapers in Alabama-and for the credit of the profession we are glad there are only a few-which never try to un- aerstand 1t, and would not truthfully state it if they did understand 1t.
 The Advertiser has all the time advo- eated straight Democratic primary or none. If, when the matter was first discussed we failed to always use the word "Demccratic" in referring to the matter it was because we thought any other kind of primary was so absurd that nobody would advocate it except those who were inimical to Democratic success, and for that reason we may at first have been less specific in our language than we should have been. From the moment, however, we learned that good Demo- cratic newspapers were advocating wide-open primary we saw that The Advertisers position might be misunder- stood by those who really had no desire to misrepresent it, and since then We have never failed to express our position so plainly that no one who desires to understand it can fail to do so.
 We have said little about it for some days, because We have felt that about all has been said that is necessary to say, and that the matter now is in the hands of the State Committee. We will add however, that we have not yet read a single valid argument in favor of opening the doors for every grade and class of political belief in Alabama to take part in selecting candidates for Democrats to vote for,
