In his charge to the grand jury of the
fall term Of the criminal branch of the
City Court, at Montgomery, Judge W. H.
Thomas dwelt at some length on impor-
tant homicide statistics which he had
collected from the various States and
Territories. These statistics set forth a
condition of affairs in Alabama which
form a sad commentary on the disregard
for human life in this State. and demon
strate the Importance of enforcing the
laws without fear or favor.
Judge Thomass figures should furnish
food for serious thought in this State.
Why the State of Georgia should make a
far better showing than her sister State,
Alabama, is striking fact. and can be
explained only on the ground of public
sentiment as Judge Thomas suggests.
Until our laws are more rigidly enforced
with impartiality we may expect this
ugly record of Alabama to remain stand
ing. The firm stand taken against the
practice of carrying concealed weapons In
this State. 1t Is believed, will help to I'M
prove things. and a steady growing pub

So far as Cleburne is concerned, The
Advertiser is mistaken or 1t may be that
the error " in the Auditors Office.
On October LIST The Standard-NewsI In
speaking OF the assessment of this and
last year, said in part:
by a comparison of the tax ASSESSOR
books for this and last year we ascertain
that the total assessed value of taxable
property for 1901 was 81, 329'792 and that
the assessment for 1909 amounts to N,SS2,-
els, which is an increase over last year
of So, S2S."
We have again compared the tax as

the above statement showing that the
tax values of this county for 1902 have
increased SIS. S23 over last year, is correct
IL the Auditors office shows what The
Advertiser asserts 1t is an error apd
should be corrected, and II The Adver-
tiser is ia error 1t should correct the mis-
take.
The error complained Of. If there is such
an error, is neither in the Auditors books
nor was it in The Advertisers article on
state tax valuation The abstract from
Cleburne County for 1901 shows an as
sessment for that year OF $1.4649O1. The
last abstract. that for 1902, shows that the
assessment is $l,SS2.6l5. decrease in Gle
burne's tax valuation of $72,2Ss.
The abstracts were carefully compared
yesterday by Judge Cook of the Audi

served to confirm the correctness of The
Advertisers statement.

The Birmingham News says:

From the published list of what the
Indians ask from the Government 1t seems
that civilization develops greed. The red
skins were once satisfied with bogus
beads.
They were satisfied because they knew
no better, and the educated Christian
white man took advantage of that ignor-
ance to obtain possession of the Indians
lands. Great estates were bought and
paid for with a few strands of bogus
beads" and other equally worthless trifles,
with an occasional bottle of New England
rum to make the trade easy. We really
don't think the whites have any reason
to congratulate themselves over the many
good trades made with the Indians.

A strong expression in favor Of Demo

lies in following sound Democratic prin-

ton on currency reform ~ expressed last

the question into the canvass. The DEM

do much to command the support OF the

1t seems extraordinary that the party
now In power after six years control OF
the government in every branch, has
adopted no far-sighted measure to i'm
prove our paper currency.
The Democratic party under Mr.. Cleve-
land and Mr.. Carlisle proposed COM
prehensive measure of bank note re-
form. which, II it had been carried out III
principle, would have enabled our New
York banks to meet the recent pressure
by increasing their note issues under
conditions of perfect safety, without fore
ing the Secretary of the Treasury to
adopt the heroic measures which he has
recently been compelled to take. The
question of a proper bank note currency
is a complicated one, and the Republicans
may be excusable for not taking action
upon 1T during the first Republican Con-
gress under President Mckinley; but the
come and gone. and there has been re-
fusal or neglect to take action In the
face Of the almost unanimous demand OF
trained students of the subject and OF
nearly a dozen Republican State conven-
tions.
THE question of a proper currency sys-
tenn is not primarily one of profit to the
banks-they usually earn more in periods
of stringency than in periods Of easy
money. 1t is question for the borrower,
the merchant who builds up our indus
tries, the farmer who harvests our crops,
the laborer who profits by the free move
ment of capital and products. and the in
weston who furnishes the capital which
has made possible the great development
of the last five years This issue, Il
properly presented, ought to command

Every Democrat in Alabama who Is
qualified as a voter should go to the polls
next Tuesday and vote for Governor
Jelks and the whole State ticket, and
for all other Democratic nominees. They
are entitled to the full vote and it is to
the interest of the State as well as the
Party, that the fullest vote possible be
polled. Our enemiss of the Republican
Party have been seeking to cut down our
representation in Congress. because of the
smallness of our Congressional vote in
recent years, and We should turn out to
the last man and resent this interference
by voting for the Democratic nominees
for Congress. There are now over $50, 900
registered white voters and Of these there
ought to be at least 10000 who can now
vote, leaving 5000 who because of fall
urs to pay poll tax deprived themselves
of the right to vote. In the sixty-six
counties of the State at least 1900 and
possibly 10000 ought to be registered next
FPiday and Saturday. Under any and all
circumstances it is the duty of good cit
liens to go to the polls and aid in secur-
ing good men to administer public af-
fairs. They will do this when they vote

the Decisions of the Supreme Court Of
this State. The twenty-fifth section OF
this code reads as follows:
AN attorney can never represent con-

transaction except by express consent of
all 30 concerned with full knowledge Of
the facts Even then such a position IL

An attorney represents conflicting inter-
ests within the meaning of this rule
when It Is his duty in behalf of one of
his clients to contend for that which duty
to other clients In the transaction requires
him to oppose"
The principle thus enunciated by the
lawyers OF this State has existed for ages
as part Of our law. 1t 10 found In the
Divine saying that mo man can serve
two masters for either he will hate the
one and love the other, or else he will
hold to the one, and despise the other"
Judge Joseph Story, one of the greatest
juristsl our country has ever known, uses

this subject: -
AN attorney should disclose to his

every prior retainer which may affect the

devotkn to the Cause confided to him.
that he has no interest which may be-

ity. II a prior retainer 10 made known

.Statisticfan Of the Department of

Washington Special to N. o. Times-Dem-
John Hyde will be again In danger Of
losing his position az statistician Of the
Agricultural Department when Congress
convenes. Attempts have heretofore been
MADE to remove him; supreme effort in
that direction will be begun during the
coming session.
1t Is proposed to take away from Mr..
HYDE the preparation of the montnly
crop report. The speculative interests of
\ ew York are leading in the demand for
Mr.. Hyde's removal, but there IL also
saiu TO be dissatisfaction with his statis-
teal work in the leading Western cereal
centers. and In the grain, cotton and
stock markets Of the East.
Grain spectators complain that Mr.
Hyde refuses to give out the monthly
crop report. which 10 issued on the 10th
and grain markets AS a result, the fig
ures become available for market uses in
London and Liverpool next morning, be-

70 adopt a different system Of giving out

refused. This offended them, and they

The tight on Mr.. Hyde began in earnest
when the Census Bureau began making
public figures on grain and cotton for
1000. In some instances these figures did
not agree with the figures of the Depart
ment Of Agriculture. In the case of the
production Of wheat in the country dur
ing the year 1900 there was a difference
of some 10000 900 bushels between the
figures of Mr.. Hyde and those of the ag-
ricultural division Of the Census Office.
whose chief Is L. q. Powers. 1t led i'm
mediately to campaign of acrimony
between the Census Once and the office
of the statistcian, which is the Depart
msnt of Agriculture.
After much pickering, the matter be-
came so serious and the reliability of the
Governments crop estimates were
brought, 50 much into question that the
National Beard of Trade, acting for finan-
ciar interests, appointed a committee to
come to Washington and investigate the
relative worth Of the two sets Of figures.

A great many white men in Alabama
failed to register prior to August list,
and were therefore not able to vote in
the late primaries. They were told time
and again of the necessity for register
ing, but put it off with the result of wait
ing too long. 1t should be remembered
that those who are registered this year
are on the permanent life roll, and no
matter what happens in the future, will
not have to register again. This Is a
right they have acquired under the new
Constitution, which no statute can here
after take from them. On Friday and
Saturday, October 31st and November LIST,
an opportunity for registering will again
be afforded. and iall who from sickness.
absence from the State or other unavoid-

who have become of age since August

Under the rules governing the recent
Democratic primary those only who
voted the Democratic ticket at the last
State and Federal elections were allowed
to participate. This will no doubt be the
rule in the next primary or other mode of
selecting candidates, and it would be the
part of wisdom for ali who wish to have
voice in future nominations to vote
the ticket next Tuesday No Democrat
can give valid reason for failing to
take part in elections. There was much
said about exclusion OF former Democrats
from the primary because of their con-
nsotion in recent years with the Populist
Party, but IL they want to vote in DEM
ocratic primaries they can do so in the
future by voting for the party ticket.
