REGENERATION.

The registration books for Montgomery County will be open only a few days aonger. Those who have failed to regis ter and obtain life certificates will bit- feriy regret it if their Indifference goes 10 the extent of not having their names on the books. There are nearly 2.0OO white men in this city and county who have not registered and many of them are men who continually complain of misgovern- ment, rings. etc. How can they expect to help secure a better condition of af- kairs when they put themselves in position where they cannot help those who strive to secure it.
 There are some who have been informed khat they will have to so through long categorical examination and answer a great string of questions before they can register. This is wrong information as all can easily ascertain by calling on the registration officers at the Court House.
 This county has $500 white voters and all of them ought to secure life certif- cates before the books close.
 If there are any subject to poll tax and who failed to pay 1t, they are not for that reason excluded from registration. Payment of poll tax has nothing to do with registration.

The rmpoverishing of Cuba.

brooklyn EaRle.
 Ships are coming from Cuba and are not going to return. There is no ocea- sion. The island raises sugar at a Ioss because our market Is practically closed to 1t; hence it will raise little of 1t. Such of it as in store will be sold for what 1t Will bring, and the goods We might sell to Cuba with the money thus secured will not be sold. Cuba, after a season of prosperity under American rule. now lapses into the poverty that pertains to The promises we made to her have been broken. If one may be believed who has made study of the matter the abolition of reciprocity which occurred eight years ago. cost the merchants of this country, $4s, 900; at least. that figure represents the falling off in our exports to the is- land. The decrease during this present year will add $l5NOO, 900 to this sum. It is significant that three of the ships of the Cuba Mail Steamship Company have been laid off. as there is not business enough to warrant keeping them in commission.
 England, France and Germany will un- doubtedly step in and take the trade that would naturally and cheerfully have been extended to us, had we not broken faith, and we in turn would have profted by cheaper sugar, tobacco and fruit. Less loss in estimation which we suffer through the treaehery of our Congress- men who proved less loyal to the people than to the beet trust This loss of es- timation is not in the Cuban mind alone; 1t must be shared by people of all coun- tries who have followed the course of events, and who will see in the denial of the rightful expectations of an infant re- public a scheme to impoverish the island in order that it may come to us as a sup pliant for annexation. If. as will proba- bly, happen, foreign power gains the hold on the loyalty of the people and es- tablishes strong interests at our doors. the seeds of trouble will be sown that promise an abundant crop for years to come. A company of beet farmers is stronger than the United States. Aston ishing, is it not? And disgraceful.

NEGROES AND STREET CARS.

A recent issue of Youngs Magazine, which purports to be published in New York and New Orleans has an editorial denouncing any law which requires sepa- rate cars for white and colored passen- gers on the street railways. It must have been written by the New York end of the. combination, for 1t is difficult to be- lieve that a sensible Southerner would have written in the way this writer does
 One of the arguments used by the writ CT in opposition to the separation of the races in street cars is that it is not al- ways possible to distinguish between the two races, and he evidently thinks the point a telling one for he rings all the changes on it and devotes most of his long editorial to that phase of the ques- ton. It does not seem to strike minor, if it does, he pays no attention to'it-that while there are many persons of mixed blood who are nice, cleanly and well-be- haved, there are many negroes to be seen on the mixed cars who are unspeakably filthy in their dress, offensive in their persons and exceedingly annoying and disgusting in their language and man. ners. Where mixed ears are allowed ne- groes of this class will crowd themselves in, and some of them seem to take de- light in occupying seats next to ladies in order, we suppose, to show their inde- pendence.
 It is against this class of negroes, and against the habits and manners of this class, that so many Southern cities are guarding by separating the races, and 1t is not likely that the policy will be dis continued. In fact, one of the best de- fences of the plan that we have lately seen is an extract from a sermon recently preached in Mobile by a negro named w. w. Lucas. Among other things he said:
 I have decided that the only way to get rid of the "Jim Crow" car is to get rid of the Jim Crow negro. If l could use 200, 900 bars of soap on the unwashed ne- groes that travel on trains and hang around depots l would solve the negro problem about 20 per cent. Lazy, ragged, barefoot fellows, longing for silver slip pers and long white robes and counting themselves worthy; neglecting to provide home for their families on earth and yet claiming a house not made with their hands in Gods heaven. The white man IS trying to make this earth blossom as a rose and the negro Is getting ready to die! The white man Is organizing busi- meas enterprises and the negro organizing

societies to turn out at their funerals! Now. I object to a s10o funeral for 5o- cent negro. The negro eats up and dresses away all he makes. One square meal on Sunday sweeps away all the wages of the week. He reminds me of the mule which ate the shipping tag from his leg. An old negro exclaimed: Gee. dat mule dun eat up his whar-he' s-gwfne! That's what the negro does. He eats up his living.
 We are informed. that the negroes to whom he was speaking appiauded the sermon, and that they appeared to feel the weight of the speakers remarks. They may we'll have done so. for he was telling them some wholesome truths which they would do well to keep in mind. Whether their making themselves neat and well-behaved will bring back mixed cars is another question, but this writer in Young's will not accomplish that end by his style of argument.

Not According to Marquis of Queens
 berry.

New York Evening Post
 Lovers of fair fighting cannot but de- plore Senator Bailey's failure yesterday to observe the Marquis of Queensberry rules. No member of the United States Senate. which Is now producing so many eminent pugilists, has the slightest eX- cuse for nQt knowing that striking in a clinch is hot allowed, except on the bI eakaway. and that hacking is ahso- lutely never allowed. Evidence is con- flicting as to whether Bailey actually struck in the clinch. and the public will probably remain in ignorance on this point until the sporting editor of The Congressional Record reviews the facts. But all witnesses agree that Bruiser Bai- ley choked Bully Beveridge and was thus clearly guilty of hacking. Unquestion- ably, then the referee must decide that Bailey lost the battle on foul We shall look for better work in the future. The Senate can easily be filled with first-rate fighters, If the people will rise to their duty Only last night Dodge of Harvard, Wenck of Yale. and Gates of the Uni versity of Kansas acquitted themselves with credit in the boxing matches in the National Sporting Club of London. With Dodge, Wenck and Gates in place of Hoar Hawley and Burton. ths Senate may yet regain the prestige it has lost through men who are as clumsy with their fists as Tillman and Bailey.

A SCRAP OF HISTORY.
Interesting Sketch of Confederate
 Torpedo Boat.
Mobile Register.

Mobile Register.
 William A. Alexander of Mobile con- tributes to The New Orleans Picayune of sunday last, the authentic history of the construction. method of operation and achievement, involving it's own destruc- ton, of the only submarine torpedo boats that ever destroyed a vessel in actual combat. The story of the torpedo boat Hunley is not wholly new to the public. The boat was built and designed in Mo bile by Mir. Alexander and others and was tested in Mobile River and Bay, and was then sent to Charleston harbor where she sank three times, carrying her crew to the bottom, drowning them. In these three casualties but three men es- capd. Her fourth adventure was made under the command of Lieut.. George E. Dixon. MT. Alexander was second offi- cer, but just before the final operation was ordered to Mobile. The Hunley went outside of the bar at Charleston one moonlight night, February f7, 1884, and torpedoed and sank the United States sloop-of-war Housatonic. The momentum of the torpedo boat was too great and in- volved her in the wreck of the sleop The brave officers and crew sank with their little destroyer and their bodies were not recovered until after the close of the war. Captain Alexander's story Is told in sim pie language, but is nevertheless a thrill Ing report of most daring and unidue adventure in the great war of 1S61-65 The story Is Illustrated with diagrams of the construction of the boat, and with a good picture of the writer

Fruits as Medicine.

Holbrooks says: There is hardly a disease affiicting humanity that would not be prevented or cured by the use of fruits which are so generally forbidden. During the civil war many of the sick troops cured themselves of dysentery and diarrhoea by stealing from the hospitals into the fields and eating fruits. black berries particularly. Children suffering peach orchards of Delaware with the most gratifying results; typhoid fever
 that dread disease often takes a more favorable course where the use of such fruits as peaches and grapes is allowed. In scarlet fever and diphtheria. native and foreign fruits are most useful. In treating dysentery, I much% prefer ripe. sound fruit. peaches especially, to any drug in the phlrmacopia. For all liver diseases. grapes, apples. plums and other sub-acid fruits are a remedy. while for some kidney diseases there is no medi- cine Eo good as ripe, sound watermelon.

The Proper Issue.

Memphis Commercial Appeal.
 If the Democrats are ever to win an- other victory, they must let the dead past bury its dead and devote themselves to vital issues. The policy pursued toward our colonial possessions and Cuba pre- sents minor issue. The Republican treatment of the Nicaragua Canal may furnish another. But the paramount is sues are the tariff and the trusts. On these two points the people demand re- lief They care hardly fig for the Thil- ippines. They decline to worry about kguinaldo. They are not against the army. though they object to the white washing of particular bla s!Ssheep in it, Rut against the grinding tyranny of the that feeds the trusts they protest.

Snakes and fishes are not the only sub jects of big stories this year, for the vegetable and fruit growers get in an oc- caAonal word in due season. Here, for example, is The Andalusia Gazette telling of a cucumber that is feet 71-2 inches long and something over inches in cir conference. and the editors informant assured him that the succulent vegetable sIs yet green and tender and still grow tng.' There's no telling what it will do before 1t goes out of business. if there's room enough in Covington County to hold it. That there can be no doubt about the accuracy of this story is evil dent, because the man who told The Ga zette about it gave the further informa- ton that he helped to eat a cucumber from the same vine. That ought to settle it in the minds of any who may feel disposed to dispute the story. We expect to hear from that cucumber and it's ef- fects hereafter.

Kansas and Nebraska.

Chicago Chronicle (Dem)
 The country Is called upon once more to witness the immoral and degrading bargaining between the so-called Demo- crats of Kansas and Nebraska and the Populists.
 From the beginning of these trades un- til the present time, the rule followed without variation has been the complete surrender by Democrats of their prin- ciples and the adoption without modifica- tion of the ideas of the Populists.
 For the bare chance, therefore, of electing few Democrats to State offices the party managers in these States have abandoned their own principles and prac- tically disrupted their organization. So de- moralizing have been these practices it Is probable that in a contest between Democracy. Republicanism and Populism in either of the States named, the Demo- crats would not poll 10 per cent of the vote.
 Both States have been carried by the fusion in times past but there is no pros- pect whatever that the alliance will be successful hereafter. Nothing but repeat ed and increasingly emphatic defeats will put an end to a combination which is cor rupt and mischievous in all its aspects.

Letters to the Editor.
Excess Water Rate.

Editor The Advertiser:
 What Is the matter with the Water Company that so many bills should come in with excess charges From the num- Der of complaints that have come to my cars. 1t is reasonable to suppose that oyer one-half the consumers have to pay TOT last quarter from one-third to 2Oo per cent excess over the fixed charge VIII not the Council investigate this matter? The same state of affairs existed at the end of. the January-April quarters. only not quite so heavy. It would be money in the pockets of the people to sell the water works to a private corporation if this sort of business is to continue.

It is Morgan's Work.

Savannah News.
 Whether the canal goes by the Pana- ma or the Nicaragua route, the name of Senator Morgan of Alabama will be per manently identified with the great work In season and out of season, for years and years, he has consistently and per sistently advocated the building of ca nal across the isthmus. The Brooklyn Eagle has referred to the Congressional Record and found that during the prog ress of the debate on the canal bill Sen ator Morgan made eight speeches filling four times the space filled by any other Senator And 1t is pretty safe asser- ton that he knew about four times as much about the subject as the majority of those who spoke,

The Height of Absurdity.

Union Springs Herald.
 It is the height of absurdity for one like Bryan to refer to Cleveland with these words, "a political banquet gwen the Democratic ticket and has never since announced his intention To return to the party" MT. Bryan talks as if he has been a life long Demo ,rat." and was never associated with fusionists, and has never accepted a Fopuiist rC mi nation. His advent into the Democratic party was purely accidental and he las been honored by the party as much as any other person. Although Cleveland has not of late been in line with the party and did support some cardids tes of a bolting faction, Bryan Is not the one to Haunt 1t.

The Montgomery advertiser., 1902-07-04

It is quite pleasant to agree with The Times occasionally. as we do when it declares that in his speech at President Roosevelt did what no other President has done" If we should change the expression any more we would say that he did what no other President would have done.
The Montgomery advertiser., 1902-07-04

It is now in order for MT. Bryan to de- the Georgia Democrats, because in their State Convention last Wednes- day they failed to say anything about the Chicago and Kansas City platforms. He will be the great denouncer of the day if he lambasts all the Democrats who think that it is good time to let dead issues stay dead.
