WE ARE NOT CONVINCED.

The Bessemer Weekly Is not at all willing to agree with The Advertisers reasoning on the subject of a general pension law. It is surprised that jour nal of the high standing of The Mont gom.ry Advertiser should indulge in such puerile argument" and adds:
 At it's present rate of progress In this direction in a year or so more, it will be demanding pensions for ex-Confeder- ates and national monuments to com memorate the cause for which they fought. The position of The Advertiser on the subject cannot fail to be a sur prise to it's intelligent and conservative readers.
 Well, if any of our readers have been surprised. we have not heard of it, and The Weekly gives us the first informa- ton of the kind. The reasoning we used may have been puerile, but we decline to admit the fact. All the wars for which soldiers have been pensioned previous to the war between the States were national and not sectional. They were wars of the entire Union against common en- emy The pensions were paid by all the people and all sections of the Union were benefited. Certainly, The Weekly will not say that the same reasoning would apply in favor of law to pension all soldiers of the Union army, regardless of need or disability. And, finally, will The Weekly advance some tenable reason. based or moral justice and fairness why the Northern people had not as well be taxed to pension Confederate soldiers as for Southern people to be taxed to pen sion all Union soldiers?

A R1prcuLoUs FA1Luas.

We doubt if there has ever been en- acted in any State of the Union a law which fell as absolutely and hopeiessly dead as did the Pennypacker libel law in Pennsylvania. Sometimes a bad law Is passed and an honest effort made to enforce 1t, but if public sentiment is against it, and if it is shown to be against public policy and not for the pub lie good it soon dies for lack of enforce ment.
 The Pennypacker law had a different fate, as all laws must have when they undertake to stife the press. It had no sooner been signed than it became the object of the most severe and almost unanimous denunciation. Republican and Democratic newspapers. the friends and the foes of the Governor, joined in de- nouncing the law and its object, and il never had even a semblance of vitality. No attempt has been made to enforce 1t because 1t was seen that such an attempt would be without results. The great newspapers of the State defied the law and dared the Governor to enforce it. They gave him numerous opportunities to go into the courts and put the law in force, but he has refused to take up the gage of battle and has thus placed him. self in the attitude of securing the pass age of a law which he has been abso- lutely powerless to enforce. The result will probably be a lesson to all officials who imagine they can suppress the press of this country.

PREPARING FOR TROUBLE.

In the opinion of The Kansas City Journal, the Secretary of the Kansas Commission for the Worlds Fair is put ting himself in the position of one who "heaps up wrath against the day of wrath" He has sent a circular letter to the Mayors of all the towns in that State asking them to send him photo- graphs "of all women whose beauty, in- teiligence or other distinguishing feature entitle their pictures to a place in an album of representative Kansas women"
 There is the groundwork of aSgenuine sea of troubles for the Mayors of Kansas If they undertake to comply with the re- quest. Suppose. for example, the Mayor of Tonganoxie inserts notice in the local paper directed to all the women who fill the above requirements-what would be the result? Would he not be flooded. deluNed, overwhelmed and buried be- meath an avalanche of pictures? Yea. verify. and any attempt on his part to select between the specimens sent him would be the signal for such a rebellion as Kansas has not seen. Every woman will believe that she possesses at least one of the requirements named and she will have her picture sent or know the reason why. There will be more May ors scooting for tall timber than the world ever saw.
 And the idea of putting all the pie lures in "an album" is proposterous It would require a stack of albums as big as the Alexandrian Library. and then some would be left scattered around. If the Mayors are either wise or prudent, they will turn down that proposition sharp and quick.

Historic Titles on Point of Extinction

No fewer than fifty-seven Brltisn peers have no heirs to succeed them. That number of titles is therefore likely to be- come extinct on the death Of their pres ent holders.
 Curously enough. nearly all these titles are of modern creation. The ancient historic nobility is well proVioeo "ith heirs to carry the family name do"h 10 future generations.
 The leading exceptions to this rule are the twenty-second Baron de Clinord, whose titles date back to 1299 and would die with him if he expired tomorrow and the thirteenth Baron Borthwick, whose title was conferred on his ancestor In 1452

SUMMER SCHOOL.

The summer schools for teachers that have been held in recent years in num- Der of States have been largely attended by Alabama teachers. Naturally. the question arises, why not have one in our own State?
 At the request of the Board of Trus- tees. a bill raising a 5000 appropriation for the establishment and maintenance at the University of summer school for teachers will be introduced in the Legislature. Some arguments in its fa- vor are as follows:
 1. Alabama has over six thousand white teachers, ninety per cent of V aom have receIved no special trainGug for their work. The specially traIneo teacher Is the best teacher.
 low grade certificates. Under the law, they must take higher grade certificates in a limited time or qu.t the work. Ev- cry opportunity for advancement should be given.
 8. At the season when most teachers are employed and could continue their work of preparati ton, the summer months the colleges are not open. Hence the inn perative need Of summer school for teachers.
 I. It is estimated that such a school located at the University would enroll an- nually from three to six hundred Ala bama teachers. Over two hundred Of them attended summer schools this year at the Universities of Georgia and Ten nessee. They should not be forced to leave the State to secure such advant- ages.
 0. The proposed summer school has been endorsed by the Alabama Educa- tional Association and by the South Ala oama Educational Association.

Clay. sand. asphalt and granite do not make good roads until mixed with a proper amount of gray brain mater. It is this last named ingredient that the country most sadly lacks.
