GENERAL BRAXTON BRAGG
 AND GENERAL SHERMAN

The following story was told recently by Major James H. Trezevant of Hous- ton. Tex, to a crowd Of listeners at the Fifth Avenue Hotel in New York ana appeared in The Tribune of the next morning as follows:
 General Sherman and General Braxton Bragg cordially hated each other during the war and for some time afterward. They were classmates at. West Point, and their two armies clashed on bloody batticiieGs more than once. Another classnaatL was Samuel Bell Maxey, Unit ed States Senator from Texas following the war After Appomattox. Bragg was poor. ana finally drifted to Texas. where he became chief engineer of the Gulf. Colorad, and Santa Fe Railroad. with offine of the company was at Galveston, where General Bragg made his head quarters rGtor Maxey knew that Gen. erals sherman ana Bragg had cordially detrsted each other during the war. One day in Wast ington Senator Maxey and General sherman got to talking over old tIm <. when suddenly General Sherman said:
 By the way, Sam, what is Braxton do.u.g"
 "senator Msxtv told him about his 'thJ Ightful foi minute, then he said:
 Sam. when you go home to Texas to- morrow you go and see Braxton. and tell him that if he'll take the place will have him app".l'ted Inspector Gen Hravton is good disciplinaran. and he will lit into tfat job all right
 ."The pathetic part of 1t all was" add cd Major ,.'!,cI want that General Bragg never knew of ire magnanimity of his former ciassmate. as he died of apopleXy had his conversation with Senator Macy.

his wife and children go without shoes. Most poor men who are owners of dogs will give up almost any other possession rather than part with their canine friends for few men ever had truer or more faithfuh friends than. good dog may be, and for that reason man will keep them even when he knows they are a perfectly useless and unnecessary ex- pense. Whether Tennessee can pass a law to tax them. whether such a law could be enforced, and whether the tax would lessen the number of worthless ones arc questions we should like to sec demonstrated. and if the experiment Is a success Alabama could profit by the ex- ample. We do not noy remember how many dogs there are in the State. but there are several thousands. or several millions, we forget which, and most of them are useless except as incubators for fleas and other nuisances. We shall watch our neighbor States success at dog legislation.

loaUSE OF HElDacNE.
One Very Common Cause, 0snerall,
 Overlooked.

Headache is symptom, an indication of derangement or disease in some organ and the cause of the headache iS difficuL to locate, because so many diseases hay, headache as a prominent symptom; dc. engagement of the stomach and liver heart trouble, kidney disease. lung trouble. eye strain or i'll fitting glasses. all produce headaches, and if we could always locate the organ which is at fault the cure of obstinate headaches would be much simpler matter.
 However. for that form of headache called frontal headache pain back of the eyes and in forehead, the cause is now known to be catarrh of the head and throat: when the headache Is located in back of head and neck 1t is often caused from catarrh of the stomach or liver.
 At any rate catarrh is the most com mon cause of such headaches and the cure Of the catarrh causes a prompt dis- appearance of the headaches.
 There is at present no treatment for ca- tarrh so convenient and effective as Stu arts Catarrh Tablets, new internal remedy in tablet form. composed of an- tieeptics like eucalyptol guaiacol and blood root which act upon the blood and cause the elimination of the catarrhal poison from the system through the na- tural channels

Russia,s Reassurances.
Times

WaSnlnBtOn 1ilneS.
 Russla's reassurances to this govern ment in regard to the Manchuriau ques- ton are particularly gratifying. for they indicate at least postponemnet of the design to so promote the influence of the Czar in Northern China that. the terri tory will naturally come into the domain of his great empire. The answer to Sec retary Hays note likewise indicates the ruling influence of the United States, and perhaps puts a stop tn connivance in the far East that will prevent for time a serious clash between the European powers h no way ean America do d better service to humanity in general than by preventing hostlities Regene- ration makes much more rapid progress in times of amitv artificial 0r otherwise The pOstponement of armed trouble Is of advantage to the world, It is to be hoped that Russia will comprehend that any overt move in the Orient is dangerous | and that ambition will be checked in that direction. At times warfare Is honorable but when the sword is resorted to simply to satisfy ambition for the extension of territory and influence it is decidedly rep rchensble.

THAT CANINE TROUBLE.

The Memphis Commercial-Appeal gives as a cause of the great number of dogs in Tennessee one reason which We had not heretofore heard advanced, though there may be something in it. 1t states that of late years quite d number Of people in that State have gone into the business of raising fine dogs for the profit there is in them. and that thus large addition is made to the canine population It reasons in this way:
 There is some reason to hope that the number of worthless CUTS will be linn tied by law in the near future. Those who raise and own fine dogs are bccom- ing more and more numerous and these are the ones who are the most clamorous for law imposing dog tax sufficiently expensive to prevent its being paid on worthless CUTS The low class and prowl- ing dogs are great enemies of the high bred dogs and infiict great injury on them at times. A tax of g a head would amount to little to an animal worth $4O0 or $J0O. but 1t would prove a prohibitivc tax on dog that is not worth 90 cents.
 It is very true. of course. that a tax which would be but a trifle to the owner of d valuable dog would be comparatively heavy on one who possesses a worthless cur. but as the owners of the really worthless dogs are largely in the ma jority they will probably continue to control legislation as they have always done. In fact, these voters will have an added incentive in the feeling that the tax is levied in the interest of the rich dogs and against the poor ones. This feel ing will make them more determined in their efforts to defeat any dog legisla- ton.
 But even if license or tax law can be enacted We doubt if 1t would have much effect. Ordinarily man who will keep and feed one or more trifiing dogs when he is unable to properly support his family would pay the license and lei

Miss Cora Ainsley. a prominent school teacher in one of our normal schools, speaks of her experience with catarrhal headaches and eulogizes Stuart's Catarrh Tablets as cure for them She says: T suffered daily from severe frontal headache and pain in and back of the eyes. at times so intensely as to inca pacitate me in my daily duties. had suffered from catarrh, more or less for years. but never thought it was the cause of my headaches. but finally became con- vinced that such was the case because the headaches were always worse when- ever had a cold or fresh attack of ca tarrh.
 'Stuart's Catarrh Tablets were highly recommended to me as safe and pleas ant catarrh cure, and after using a few ffty,cent boxes which I procured from my druggists I was surprised and de- light'd to find that both the catarrh and headsches had gone for good'
 Stuirt's Catarrh Tablets are sold by druggists at fifty cents per package, un- der tle guarantee of the proprietors that they contain absolutely no cocaine (found tn so many catarrh cures), no opium (so coRlmtn in cheap cough cures). nor any harfnhl drug They contain simply the wholebme antiseptics necessary to de- stroy and. drive from the system the germs of catarrhal disease

OLD AND NEW WRITERS.

The Birmingham Age-Herald Is some what worried on account of the lack poets and the decadence of poetry. takini the position that this era of the work is lacking in the genuine poesy of former days. If we were disposed to treat th' subject frivoiously we might contend that there is an over-crop of both poets ano poetry. In fact we may say that we have both to burn without at all over- stating the case.
 But to treat the matter seriously, may it not be that tastes and feelings have changed. or that we are inclined'to place those who have passed away on a higher pedestal than we do those who are yet with us? We look back to those poets who illumined the last century with the fires of their genius and decide that there are none like theh left. Perhaps they looked back on Shakspeafe and Ben Jonson and others of their day with the same feeling. Then, asAn. the poets of three or four centuries ago may have thought with envy of Horace and Virgi and Homer and the few who nourished in that day and wondered why there were no such poets. As we get farther iron the writers and the heroes and states. men of the past we view them through the mists of years and surround then with a halo which we are unwilling tt place on those now living.
 It may be, too, that there are now SC many poets and so much poetry that wt feel like the starving man set down tC table covered with everything good and who is so bewildered by the mum Der and variety of dishes that he is unable to tell which is best or if any i' really better than the rest. The worlt abounds with poets and poetry, and. like going back to those who wrote verses on, or two centuries ago and have a feeling that they have no worthy successors Then, poets were comparatively few, ane they were not of the pot-boiler kind They wrote because they must give ex' pressiou to the music within them, and not because there was market for theii wares. Possibly we older men whe learned poetry from Shakespeare and Bryon and Scott and Moore and Poe anc the few like them are not fair judge: of the poets and poetry of the present age There is so much printed nowadays 1T the shape of verse which has no poetr, in 1t that we may possibly be prejudicec in favor of the old writers.
 Something of the same complaint is fire quently made about novels and novelists and the same reasoning applies to then as to the poets. One hunderd years ae; the writers of fiction were eomparativel. few in number. Are there any sucl novel writers in the present day as Scot and Dickens and Cooper and Bulwer an, Itheir contemporaries? Of writers of fic tion there is no lack and to their book there is no limit, and 1t may be that il
 the multiplicity of writers and writing we are so surfeited that we cannot SC | the good that really exists. But W | must admit that we really feel nor
 kindly to the old writers than to tn moderns

The Selma Journal is eminently correct in saying that ''care should be exercised to send only faithful, sensible men to Montgomery" meaning the Represents lives and Senator from Dallas in the next Legislature, for as The Journal further remarks. they will be needed as they have never been needed bfore." Dallas has numbers of Democrats who i'll all the requirements and such only should be nominated and elected.
 What is true of Dallas is true of every county in Alabama. The next session oi the Legislature will be one of the most important ever held in Alabama. It will have the duty and privilege of inaugurat- ing and setting in motion practically new order of things in Alabama. The machinery of government must be made to conform to the new. Constitution and in some respects that will necessitate inn portant changes in our laws. It will require the talents and the courage Of the very best men we have. and only such men should be chosen.

No man should be elected because he has pull or is popular with the voters. unless he can show better qualifications for the wofk to be done. Let the people of Dallas and of all other counties select good men and elect them. So shall Ala bama start off with good laws under which good government will be permanent and the people prosperous and contented

1he Policy of the Democracy.

 There is single course for Democrats to pursue the coming. one two and three years; to bind up the party's wounds; to heal the breaches, to mend the fences; and, when the time to act in 1904 rolls round. to separate the possible from the impossible, and instead of striking out blindly and in the dark to move in solid column. keeping time to the drumbeats of common sense. whilst flying the flag bol of the national safety and glory!

Certainly Hard Up.

DOthan Siftings
 The Opelika News is certainly hard up for something to abuse Governor Jelks about. Its latest tirade is to accuse the Governor (and State press) of wilfully sighting Auburn College because the Governor did not shut up his shop at the capital and go over to Auburn to the burial of the late Dr. Broun. The Siftings never knew before that it was expected of a Governor to run around from town to town over the State to attend the funerals of citizens who die.
