AN EXPERIMENT STATION.
Let Montgomery Farmers Come To-
 gether and Get One.
i Montgomery, Ala, June

montgomery, Ala, June 4, 1903.
 The little boy who about forty years ago made the speech Whip Jack spur Tom. blow the bellows a good old man" made good speech to the farmers then when we had field filled with slaves that he could control and make Jack and Tom fat by feeding them on corn and fodder, but now that the negro is fast becoming worthless to our farms we must resort to some other means to raise rood and make money. The first step is to have an experiment station so we can find out what to plant how to plant and when to plant, what seed does best on sandy land what does best on lime land, which the best for damp lands etc
 l saw in a newspaper the other day an article headed something like this: 'Wul make the North blossom like a flower garden when the negroes come" It went on to say that so many thou sands would be sent up there. I would have been glad to have seen in the next column an article headed will make our country flowing with milk and honey when the negroes go North" Now, I would not have you think that I want to see our negroes that are on our farm lands leave, though we could we'll spare few thousand "crap shooters" and banjo pickers from the South, but I would like to show why our country will flow with milk and honey when they do leave. It will force us to look for a better way of farming. That way has already pre- sented itself to me. It is to plant on our hills Alfalfa. on our wet lands red top grass, on our flat lands Johnson grass seed, on our lime lands burr clover and bermuda grass and on our worn out lands COW peas. One man with improved implements can make as much as five can on cotton. But in order to make success quick we must have an experiment station right here in Montgomery, the heart and center of the agricultural dis trict, so that our farmers will not have to lose the time making experiments themselves, but come to the fountain head and see and hear. going home know ing what to do. Then 1t will be that our country will be one literally flowing with milk and honey.
 There is no truer saying than "Necessi- ty is the mother of invention, then nothing will force us better than to see our labor lost. Let us who see what some think is an approaching calamity prepare for it and make 1t a blessing. Let us beg the Governor and others in authority to come to the farmers rescue. to the mother of all industries rescue to the Moses of all enterprises and hold up his hands. then let every farmer in this country come to the Industrial rooms next Saturday and lend his help,

WHAT DO THEY MEANp

Isn't 1t little singular that some of our prominent Democrats should be so skittish about MT. Cleveland? They back and fill In way that is amusing, and really seem afraid of him. Congressman Bankhead admits that he Is a strong man, and would make a strong race and good President, yet Mir. Bankhead announces a preference for MT. German. Congress- man Richardson, of Alabama, recently declared that he was greatly pleased at the demonstration for MT. Cleveland at St. Louis ,and spoke of 1t as showing "a decided popular leaning again to Democratic doctrine" But MT. Richard son appears to favor Judge Parker as candidate And Congressman Livingston, of Georgia, says the Democrats can win with a man as a platform, and declares that MT. Cleveland has been a winning platform himself"-and yet Mir. Living ston prefers German as a candidate.
 What means this backing and filling. this 'T would an would nt' business? {? Are politicians afraid ofCleveland because Of his unmanageability. his absolute firm ness and fearlessness of purpose? Do they think they can get man who will be more open to influence, and who will be more amenable to Party claims? Or do they, while admitting his qualities and his fitness, really doubt his availability and hope to find a candidate who will have more popular strength?
 If the latter is the reason it Is a credita- ble Sne, although people will differ as to the soundness of the opinion. We sup pose no man will claim that he really and absolutely knows who Is the strongest man the Democrats can nominate, and we have no complaint to make of those who are casting about in their minds for the man who will stand the best chance to win, always provided they do not look outside the list of good Democrats to find the man. That is all right enough, but we don't exactly understand how they can say that Cleveland Is the best man, but they are for some other That's where we fail to connect.

The tin dipper snacks of cheapness, vul- garity. It is tawdry and leaky. The cut glass goblet suggests cracked Ice and a dark brown taste the next morning. The gourd has the flavor of home and shade trees and the hint of sunbonnets and calico. The water bottle gives thought of dinner parties and dress suits and de- collete dresses and other evidences of progress and poverty of ideas. The gourd reminds of the outdoors and red cheeks and redder lips; the. simple life of yes- terday when we had time to be friendly and understanding enough to be real Alas, that the gourd has disappeared be- fore the coming of the tin dipper and the glass goblet. No one has tasted genuine happiness who has not quaffed spring water from an old-fashioned gourd."

TT WAS A EAGER

We have all heard of the man who caught Tartar, and we have heard something of the individual who went out to shear and came back shorn. We can safely class MT. Bryan with either of these persons. when we read of his expe- rience with ex-Governor Lon. V. Stephens of Missouri. When the former went to Jefferson City recently, he refused to rec ognize or be recognized by the ex-Gover- nor because the latter has to some ex- tent been booming David R. Francis as a suitable candidate for the Presidency. MT. Bryan virtually reads Stephens out of the Democratic party for his advocacy of sound money man, whereupon Ste- phens hands back this one:
 You read me out of the party and gage oyer to the reorganizers because of my endorsement of D. R. Francis. I have the same right to claim that you. liam J. Stone for the Presldentiai nomi- nation, haze gone bag and baggage over to the traitors, schemers and trust lob Presidency just at this time, when he fig ures so conspicuously in the poodle de- velopments in St. Louis and Jefferson the Rn hane of fase se nocfss crats of Missouri. Nobody thinks you are trust lobbyist and unclean man, but they regret your lamentable igno- rance and poor judgment as well as your bad associates.
 Now, we are not claiming to be very inextricably stuck on Stephens, but we must say that this is about as complete a knockout of the Nebraskan as any one has received within our knowledge. The very idea of MT. Bryan's impugning the Democracy of any man is grotesque in the extreme, for we do not recognize him as a competent judge of what constitutes Democracy, nor do we for a moment ad- init his right to pass on the standing of any Democrat, or to read Democrat out of the party for any cause whatever. The honor. the integrity and the safety of the party have not been confided to him, nor has he been selected as an um- pire or referee of Democracy.
 Aside from all this, any man of MT. Bryan's intelligence and information who undertakes to boost William J. Stone in to prominence as a suitable man for the Democracy to choose as a leader very heavily discounts his own judgment and deprives himself of the privilege of crit icislng others. Mir. Bryan has of late developed a real mania for suggesting candidates. and for informing Democrats who must not be nominated, and. to tell the truth, this mania has about reached the point where 1t becomes impertinence. A little more modesty would well become a man who occupies the position he does at present.

The esteemed Chattanooga Times is somewhat puzzled to know why the pen- sion of Corporal Tanner should have been raised from $2 to $1OO a month. He lost both legs in the war, and of course is fairly entitled to a pension, but The Times fails to see why he should be entitled to raise of nearly 80 per cent. But The Times should remember that a young man can get along without some attachments which an old one stands badly in need of. Legs are handy to old people

Teachers Are Elected for the Next
 Session,

Hefiin. June 4.-(Special. .)-The school board of the Ross Collegiate Institute held a meeting yesterday morning and elected teachers for another year, the principal Prof. O. E. Bynum, having al- ready been reelected at a previous meet ing. Prof. A. H. Glasgow, County Su- perintendent of Education, was elected to fill the chair in the intermediate de- partment, and Miss Bessie Adams, his assistant, and Miss Anpie Lou Jenkins will have charge of the primary depart ment, and Miss Glenn Adams, music teacher Of these, the Misses Adams were reelected. but Miss Jenkins Is elected to fill the place of Miss Mclean, who has had charge of the primary de- partment for the past two years, but was not an applicant for the place again.
 Professor Glasgow was added to the list of teachers for the reason that the school has so increased in numbers that 1t will require at least four teachers in the future
 The school will be practically free to all children, an incidental fee of only $s being charged for the entire term of ten months. The City Council will appropri- ate $500 to s1,O0O from the city treasury of the funds derived from the dispen- sary.

LET THEM GO.

Boston is threatening a movement to transport the Southern negroes to the farms of New England. Good idea; the only negroes who will probably agree to go will be those with whom it would be aegro erSa tSs the 0h .oE to tps psrcSattanoogs Times.
 We suppose t1 in a waste of time and gray matter so feel surprised at any thing Boston ioes. where negroes are concerned. Since the mulato. Crispus At tucks led the phlegmatic Bostonians in their revolt against the British troops, dark skins have been popular up there. In the abolition days Massachusetts, gen eEally, and Boston. especially, were fore most in the work of despoiling slaveholdv CTS. and the spirit yet prevails among them to coddle the colored man. especial ly away from Boston, for we do not un- derstand that this movement is designed to add any more negroes to the popula- tion of that city. The design, as we take it, Is to have the negroes take the place of the YanKees who can no longer make & Ewing on the farm. and thus two i'm port:.eo objects will be accomplished. The abandoned farms will be occupied and mora Republican voters will be at hand when needed. A Bostonian can be trust ed to keep an eye on the main chance.
 But we agree with the intimation con- veyed in the above extract that such movement might be good one for the Sou:a It would probably rid our section of good many negroes who are worse than usssss here. The best class of ne- groes in Alabama, to take our own State as an example, who are most useful and contented. are not likely to be caught by any of these schemes. The idle and the dissolute, and the spestiferou; pdiitlcfans may bite at this Dait, and a good rid dance it will be. Our State can well spare part of its colored population and b. much benefited by the operation.
 And, as The Times says, 1t would be a mercy to the good negroes in the South if quite a number of the dissatisfied and worse than useless colpred people would leave and if we were going to pick out destination for them we should select Massachusetts. We are not vindictive, and have no disposition to wish harm to our fellow creatures, but If a certain ele- ment of our colored population would go to New England, and a goodly propor- tion of it stop in Boston. we should feel that we have been compensated for much that we have endured. It would give those far-sighted philanthropists a chance to learn by actual contact and experience. something of the race problem about which they prate so much. Let Boston sound the bazoo for negro immigration and get what she wants and deserves After all, as The Columbus Enquirer-Sun thinks. the movement will not amount to anything till the watermelon season is over.
