STATE PENSION WARRANTS.
Changes in the Law Needed to Pre- vent Fraud.

Editor The Advertiser:
 The report of Examiner Sedberry rela- tive to the fraudulent disposition of more than a hundred Confederate pension war rants in this county makes 1t clear that the present law governing the allowance and payment of these warrants should be The attention of the Legislature should be called to the matter. so that when 1t meets in September the present law may be amended.
 It will be seen by Examiner Sedberry's s report that even where warrants were in- dorsed by the Probate Judge showing that the pensioner had died and that the pro ceeds were collected for paying burial expenses, etc, and in case the said Pro- bate Judge failed to notify the Auditor, the warrant for next year was sent out 1901. relative to Confederate pensions should be amended. requiring the State Treasurer to keep list of all deaths, as shown by the indorsements on warrants paid by him. and to furnish the Auditor a copy of said list before the 1st of Sep- temper in each year. The Auditor can ceased pensioners from the list even though a Probate Judge has failed to give him the names. He should be required by Further. the State Board, or the Auditor should be required to notify each person to whom pension Is granted. The law should be amainded so as to include this requirement.. Then it would be very diff
 
 sioners by telling them that their names did not appear upon the pension rolls.
 Another needed amendment Is, each County Board should be given. say bien- nially. list of all the pensioners for said county, with postoff1ce addresses of each. and said board should be required to yer fly said list and report to the Auditor. This would make 1t less possible for any noe to obtain a warrant fraudulently To illustrate: In this county, in 1899. N. F. McLeroy applied for a pension and it was rINy TNyrft ten and the Auditor issued the warrant in the name of N. F. McCray; and this warrant for 1899, as we'll as those for 1900 1901 and 1902 came here, and as there was no one to claim them, they fell into Judge Whatley's hands.
 The undersigned had about seven years experience with pension matters as Y. S. Special Pension Examiner and learned that the laws can not be too strict in such matters.
 The Confederate pension fund should be held sacred, and it should be guarded by every safeguard of law.

day. July 21. Then and there intend to advocate the reorganization of the farm CTS. I want them to be honest and open in declaring that they organize for so cial, moral intellectual. charitable, and political purposes. Bankers. lawyers, merchants doctors. preachers. printers officials, fishermen. corporations, lobby ists legislators and all other sorts of people organize and go into politics. The farmer is left out: he is the real political reformer. clear of selfishness. and he is the one to save Texas. Go with me and take others to Wills Point Tuesday"
 MT. Shaw. commenting on Gov. Hogg's letter, said:
 Jim Hogg sees the handwriting on the vaI unless the farmers organize. I am going to try to get him to go to the state grange meeting at Dublin, Tex. on Aug. IS. The grange is the only real farmers organization that meets all his needs in this respect educational, frater- nal and political"
 It has been known for some time that Gov Hogg was going to make some move in politics that would call for action on the part of the democratic farmers of Texas. It is believed that on Tuesday next he will strike out from the shoul- der'' against the reorganizers, as the east ern democracy is called. He is a warm admirer of William J. Bryan and firm believer in Bryanism. Recently Sena- tors Bailey and Culberson of Texas have been talking for German as the demo- cratic nominee for president next year. Gov Hogg is not believed to be in sym pathy with any movement to send Cor man delegates from Texas. The Texas state grange Is composed almost entirely of democratic farmers. The populists be- long to the Farmers alliance.

Trust woman for getting the best of an argument, A man writing to The Chi cago Chronicle scored the women for jumping off street cars with their faces to the rear. and expressed his surprise that they were not all killed or crippled. He Is replied to by a woman who insists that women should face to the rear when getting off the cars. She declares that she always does it and virtually asserts that any woman is fool who gets off in any other way. Then she winds up by stating that she never leaves or attempts to leave a car until it has come to a dead stop. What could a man say to that kind of reasoning? Of course when the car is absolutely still, a person may as we'll get off one way as another but that was not the point the man was arguing.

THE POPE IS DEAD.

When a good man dies, all people mourn for him, for his death is loss to humanity. In the death of a man like Pope Leo XIII. mankind is the loser. for he was the friend of the human race, ir-l respective of creed or nationality That he was especially dear to the Catholics of the world is not be wondered att. for he was the supreme head of their Church on earth. and to him they looked , for counsel and guidance in all matters pertaining toN their faith. While people of other beliefs mourn for a good man gone to his reward. the Catholics grieve that the head of their Church is taken from them.
 But it is not because he was Catholic, or because he was the Pope, that all the people of all creeds can unite in the sor- row that is we'll nigh universal. From the time he was elevated to the Papal chair in 1878, to the day of his death, Leo XIII, has been recognized as a strong man, not only in his church, but in his dealings with the many difficult questions of the age in which he lived, and his con- lummate skill in all public matters affect iag his people has made him one of the remarkable figures of the time
 That the Pope should have looked on tae Catholic Church and the Catholic re- ligion as paramount to all other consid- erations is not to be wondered at, but that has not hindered him from exhibit ing worldwide sympathy for oppressed .l r-,,ff prevented his using his great power and Influence to alleviate the ills of his fellow men throughout the earth. His has been the broad and tolerant spirit which en- ables it's possessor to stoop towards hu- man suffering and to lift up the fallen man or woman of any creed or belief. Such a man cannot go out from this life without leaving behind him an almost universal regret that friend of human ity has been taken from earth.
 And so, while in every country of the earth there are Catholics who mourn that the head of their faith has ceased to live, there are thousands and millions of Protestants and Jews and of all other beliefs who will join in sympathy with them, and will regret that the fullness of time has carried him from among men forever.
 Though Pope Leo had only been the head of the Roman Catholic Church just a little over quarter of a century. hav- ing been elected to the pontifical chair February 20, 1878, he had reached far be- yond the Psalmist's allotted span of life, for he was born on the 2nd day of March. is10. and consequently had passed the p3d year of his life. He was always act i've in the discharge of all the duties of his faith, and even when but a compara- lively young man he held high and re- sponsible positions in his church. What his life has been since he became head of the church is known to all who read and keep pace with the passing events. That he was a good man is the verdict that will be passed on him throughout the civilized world. and it is doubtful if there can be found his equal to succeed him.

UNwIsE AND UNFoUNDED.
MT. Heflin's Assault on Judge Jones
 Condemned.

condemned. Birmingham News.
 The criticism by J. Thomas Hef1in of Judge Jones's conduct in the Turner peonage case is as unwise as 1t Is un- founded. Judge Jones discharged his he has. As citizen, as soldier. as Gov ernor. as judge. Thomas c. Jones has been an exemplar of all the manly virtues and model of devotion to duty. MT. Heflin could study this record with profit for Judge Jones might we'll stand as a pattern for any aspiring young Alabamian to follow.
 It is unfortunate that the Secretary of State of Alabama should assume an atti- tude which might be construed as con- donation of peonage. Judge Jones's vigorous handling of these abuses has been Alabama's vindication, and he had silenced the batteries of Northern criti- cism, which now may be expected to flame forth afresh.
 Mir. Hehin's insinuations that Judge Jones was prompted by desire of promo tion is an unworthy suggestion that he should be quick to withdraw If he thinks that Judge Jones crooks the pregnant hinges of the knee that thrift may follow fawning" he has been a singularly obtuse observer of Alabama events. MT. Hefiin's purported defense of Alabama was a miserable failure. The real defender of the honor of the State is the judge fearlessly dischargng his duty as it is given him to see it, eXtend- ing the protecting arm of the law to the humble and otherwise defenseless, and aaying the perpetrators of abuses through they be rich and powerful.
 The honor of Alabama will always be safe in the hands of her devoted son. Thomas G. Jones, who is the soul of honor.

Tense to The Repubican's aesthetic taste. And yet The Republican. like almost ey- cry other Northern newspaper, has had frequent criticisms of our Jim Crow cars." and of our refusal to allow whites and blacks to sit together. It Is a pity the editor cannot spend some time in the South, especially in the summer season. and ride in mixed street-cars. Then he would get a smell that would cling to him till he returned to the shadow of Ply mouth Rock. negro just from his work on hot day. especially if there Is a strain of Hottentot blood in him, can dif- fuse 'the rankest compound of villainous smell that ever offended Aostrii," as Shakespeare puts 1t. Some of them seem to be totally ignorant of the use of soap and water, they rarely change their clothing. and when they come into a car in very hot weather. the smell of them al- most casts a shadow, and would overpow- CT all the drunken breaths that could be crowded into a warehouse.
 And The Republican which looks on it as grave offense that refined people, la dies especially. must smell the liquor- tainted breath of white men, would have the white people of Montgomery. for ex- ample. delicate women and girls, crowded into the same seats with these oderiferous sons and daughters of Ham. whose scent almost breeds pestilence. Many negroes among us are cleanly. well dressed and not in any way offensive. but there are others who are entirely havond the limit and they must all be treated alike on the cars. The Republican editor ought to come South and take one robust smell, then he would know more than he now does.

Will Be a Help.

Chattanooga Times.
 Judge Uoness order will not interfere with the negro who Is entitled to credit We have some personal knowledge of the gentlemen who sell supplies to negroes in the cotton regions, and, like most gentle they are always willing to sell their goods for profit to those who will pay for them. It would prove a most excellent ruling if the judges decision prevented them from carrying irresponsible negroes upon whom the creditor is forced to practice "peonage" in order to collect his debt. The negro worthy of credit not the opinion of Judge Jones will be help rather than a hindance to him

HE SHOULD COME SOUTH.

The Springfield, (Mass,) Republican is one of the most conservative papers of all New England. Ordinarily 1t Is fair and just in it's editorials and comments, though it must occasionally reach down and tap the Southern brethren on the head for their race sentiments, and es- pecially because we of the South are 50 exclusive in our feelings and habits where the negro is concerned. But even the Republican unintentionally lets out the fact that 1t isn't altogether as Democratic in It's relations with others as it would have us be. Take this paragraph as an example:
 There Is another phase of this question, however, which will appeal to many who the discomfort of being compelled to ride in close proximity to one who, although not sufficiently intoxicated to be drunk. is so loaded as to smell like walking brewery or distillery. This is not an in- frequent occurrence, even right here in Springfield and it is extremely disagree able to women and children.
 There is no complaint that the men re- ferred to were noisy and boisterous. or that their behavior on the cars was such as to give offence. but they didn't smell pretty! That was an unpardonable of-

 possibilities, The Portland oregonian has this to say:
 The National Democracy will do we'll to remember that MT. Bryan is capable of organizing a bolt against their ticket, if 1t should be nominated in contempt, defi- ance or derision of him. that would be fatal to its success. A Bryan bolt would give Missouris electoral vote either to the Bryan or the Republican candidate. of success in Nebraska. Montana, Idaho, Utah, California and New York The De- mocracy have but a slim fighting chance history fbsm a1 to dva Svf wth tbe s9 Party they are certain to be defeated.
 We cannot but wonder at the assump- ton which is quite common in some quar- ters that the Democrats in 1904 will nom- mate a ticket and formulate a platform to humiliate Mir. Bryan, or as a defiance to him. The convention will not, and should not, do anything of the kind and more than that it should suffer him to dictate either the candidate or policy of the Party. MT. Bryan should not be con- sidered, one way or the other, in the sense of trucking to him or trying to gratify his particular financial views. To use a common expression. MT. Bryan will not be 'in it." as a potent factor.
 Neither should the possibility of a bolt on MT. Bryan's part cut any figure in the matter. That he may head a bolt if the ticket Is not satisfactory Is true, but if the Democratic Party Is so afraid of bolt on his part that it will suffer him to name a candidate and platform, 1t is defeated in advance. No reincarnation of 1896 and 1900 stands even a reasonable Democrats know it.
 H We do not believe that a bolt on the part of MT. Bryan would be the dire .po- litical calamity that some consider It. ly satisfactory to him. but such a ticket will have no show of success. If he re- fuses to support the ticket, 1t will be mo- tice to all sound Democrats that 1t is a good one, and they will support it. Of course it will be gratifying to all Demo- crats, if the Party can be united on gen. uine Democratic principles, but if unity can be secured only by sacrificing or ig- noring principle. 1t is not worth secur- ing, for success in that way Is impos- sible. The ticket and platform should be selected without regard to MT. Bryan, MT. Cleveland or anybody else except MT. Democracy, ST. He is the individual to be considered. if we are to succeed.
