to be good for Alabama, and yet there Is nothing to show that MT. Roosevelt got out his tape measure or his scales before he chopped off the official head of the offending Bingham. fine offense of the now re-appointed Byrne in Dela- ware was fully as fragrant as Bingham's. Under orders from Addicks, Byrne re- signed his office to run TOT congress. the sole and avowed object bsIng so defeat Representative Ball, an anti-Addieks re- publican. This was surely blew to the party, for it sent a democrat to con- gress, as well as an offense against po- litical morality. Yet Byrne Is rewarded, while Bingham was punished. Does the President have to take observation of latitude and longitude, as well as con- slider weight and measure in applying his rule? As a political moraIist he had himself laid down the real rule for treat ing the demand of Addicks TOT recogni- tion. What the public man must do,' said MT. Roosevelt. 'wno would avoid wreckage," is never to assume the at titude defying mere efficiency, mere suc- cess, without regard to the moral quali- ties lying behind it. If ne had applied that to Addieks, the gas man would now be gnashing his teeth, instead of chuck ling over presidential support"

 Speaking of politics, the recent elections in New York ends David B. IIfI as a democratic Presidential quantity. Cor. man of Maryland is today the strongest figure in the democratic national field, but unfortunately for the Marylander, both Hill and Bryan have knives out for him. In the east Bryan has no strength for himself, but he has weight in an ad- visory capacity, so to speak, and dilI yet has sufficient strength in New York to prevent German getting the delegation to the convention from this state. Thus it would seem that the democrats must look for new material In the next Pres- idential election. It is the best opinion here, regardless of political views, that # the democrats select a wise and conser- vative candidate for President he can be elected over Roosevelt who is sure to be the republican nominee.

The Stock Market.

According to my best judgment" said a New York man at the Hillman, who has had years of experience as a broker, the stock market has about reached bot tom. But I do not expect to see much of bull movement for some time. Trad ing will be conservative and will be based on intrinsive values. My advice would be to sell on marked advances
 'eThe condition of business is good and I look for a healthy state of trade for severe1 years to come. I doubt if l will live to see a period of depression such as we used to have in this country. But the boom of the last two years is about at an end"

0O Ew YORK November ib.-(spe-
 IMI cial.)-The slump in the stock
 INI market predicted two weeks S- A@ ago in the event of democrat ic victory in New York and in the con- gressional election throughout the coun- try came regardless of the great repub- lican victory all along the line. No such decline in stocks has been witnessed in any one week in several years But for the aid of the yanderbilts the Goulds and the J. Pierpont Morgan interests the stock market would have gone to the demnition-bow-wows The public has be- come thoroughly alarmed and has gotten out of the market. As a matter of fact everything has gotten too high. The trust companies have underwritten all sorts of industrial deals and have agreed to float bonds. preferred stock and com mon stock greatly in excess of that which the public will absorb. They have overdone the business ten times over. One of the wealthiest members of the New York stock exchange told me tonight that he would be content to have 50 cents on the dollar in cash for all the securities he holds today. He thinks the financial world has watered and increased stocks far in excess of earning capacity in any times except these of the present day. He thinks the general public will absorb no more and that values will decrease further still.
 As a matter of fact change in the national political situation could not have more demoralized the securities market. However, this slump in the stock market only affects the stock gamblers at pres ent It does not interfere with the pros perity of the south. The southern rail- roads and industrial concerns-especially those in the Birmingham district-will continue to prosper because their con- tracts for iron and steel run into the second half of next year. The railroads must handle the great crops and the man. ufacturing concerns are safe in the contracts they have made for their pro- ducts. Thus the Birmingham district concerns are safe regardless of stock slumps. which are greatly the manipula- ton CT overriding of gamblers, who, like Gates and his crowd, are puffed to ab-

 The problem of parents is how to keep girls innocent without letting them suf- fer through ignorance.

''Thousands of people who know and love Bishop Hugh Miller Thompson of Mississippi are pained to 1earn of that good mans fatal iIlness," said church. man yesterday.
 The distinguished ecclesiastic is be- yond the hope of recovery. He has called a meeting of his diocesan council for January to elect a co-adjutor, but I fear he will have passed away before the new year.
 Bishop Thompson is, in my opinion' the greatest theogian and the greatest preacher in the Episcopal church. He is indeed an intellectual giant, and his heart Is as generous and his spiritual life as saintly as his mind is broad and strong. His death will be a terrible blow to the church"

From the Huntsville Mercury.
 If Governor Jelks gets more money for the state convicts than has been paid heretofore and succeeds in providing for a closer state supervision of the con- victs he will accomplish a great deal at one strike. His management of the con- vict department has been good from the very first and he deserves unlimited praise therefor.
