provinces will be used to bore arte- sian wells, some to erect electric light plants, and some to build bridges. The entire sum Is to be expended in start ing the young republic in an enlight- ened and progressive manner, and the work on tne canal strip will add to the desire to bring the little common wealth up to modern standards.
 The American spirit and example is spreading. and it is especially need ed in Panama, with which country we will soon be in constant eommunica- ton. Several thousand Americans will go there to live during the con struction of the canal, and if the country becomes fully Americanized no doubt many of them will stay there after the waterway is completed. The gulf states are particularly interested In the welfare of Panama, and 1t is a pleasure to hear that Panama does not propose to retain South American methods.

State of Maryland.

Maryland's eight electoral votes will be needed by the democratic party in November, and 1t seems probable that they will be forthcoming. MT. Davis nomination seems to assure that re- Bult, but still there is an element of doubt in Maryland on account of the heavy$snegro vote. The negro vote must, however, be content with sin gle ballot. Repeating has been elimi- hated.
 McIinley's plurality in 1896 was B2,224, when Baltimore cast republi- can plurality of twenty-one thousand. In 1900 Baltimore's republican plurali- Ky fell to 1000, and Mckinley carried the state by 13,941. It is estimated that fully 10000 democrats did not go to the polls in 1900. This is shown by the uniform democratic victories since that time, and especially in Gov ernor Warfield's majority last fall.
 Maryland is undoubtedly democrat ic. but 1t is state that will need much attention during the campaign. The lugging into the campaign by the republicans of Crumpackerism will not be without effect in Maryland.f It will bring out full democratic vote, and a full vote is all that is needed in order to carry the state for Parker and Davis. The German democrats and the Jewish vote in Baltimore will be recalled to the democratic party, and this will give victory.

NATIONAL POLITICS.
Judue Parker Resigns.

From the New York World.
 The democratic candidate for president resigned yesterday the high office Of chief Justice of the court of appeals. This action was taken after the court in spec iaI session had disposed of the cases left for decission at the last adjournment.
 This course of procedure was dictated by Judge Parkers ideas of proprlety, of courtesy to his fellow judges and of due regard to the interests of litigants before the court. It will be accepted by the people as a happy solution of the difficult ties created by his nomination to a higher office.
 The voters of the state will now have the opportunity of electing Judge Park CTS successor for the remainder of his term, instead of seeing the vacancy filled for nearly a year and a half on the ap- pointment of republican machine gov ernor now acting as the campaign man. ager of his party.
 In taking this action Judge Parker has recognized the fact that the people at large and the democratic party in par ticular have a legitimate interest In the choice of his successor. By resigning now, furthermore, Judge Parker relieves himself of the hlndering dignities of his judicial office. and he will be free to be- come in fact the leader and the spokes- man of his party-the first and most in dispensable condition of q hopeful cam- paign

That Mexican Contract.

The Mexican Central railroad needs 100000 tons of cal year, delivered at Tampeco, and the Louisville & Nashville railroad held the contract. But all at once our great railroad was underbid by some Baltimore people. The Pensacola Journal thus states the sequel:
 A According to what can be learned the Baltimore parties who secured the con- tract some weeks ago from the Mexican Central for the delivery of a certain pmount' of coal find that they are unable so compete with Pensacola and the Louis Nille and Nashville, and while they are making the delivery, it is at great cost, the rail shipments of the fuel being over s50 miles further than necessary for the Louisville and Nashville to handle, and the sea difference in time is about eight days. For these reasons, it is stated, il as more than likely that the contractors will turn the big contract over to the Louisville and Nashville, or that they may have already done so.''
 There are otncr lessons of this sort that should be impressed upon the managers of distant coal mines, and Rs soon as the Warrior is opened those lessons will be well rubbed in, espec- dally at New Orelans. This district proposes to monopolize the New Or leans market when 1t can command an Open Warrior and an open inland wa terway all the way to New Orleans. In the meanwhile the railroads will do their best to drive out the inferior rcals of distant states.

DR. DEDM AN HERE.
He Made Record Time Coming from
 Decatur in a Heavy Rainstorm.

From the Huntsville Mercury.
 the Birmingham Motor club. accompanied by his wife and child arrived in this city Thursday night from Decatur hav- ing made the trip from Birmingham III an automobile. They came over from Decatur in the binding rain of Thursday night and even with that disadvantage made the trip from the Decatur Terry on this side of the river, a distance or t"eh- ty-four miles, in two hours and ten mn utes.
 Dr. Dedman and family made leisure ly trip. the doctors object being to make a close inspection of the roads for the benefit of his fellow members of the club. They got in Cullman Monday night and then lost the next day at Layton where there was a swollen stream. The roads are in terrible condition.
 The Birmingham papers have printed sensational stories in the last two or three days concerning Dr. Dedman, re- porting him as lost and broken down in the mountains of northen Alabama He out having anything done to his machine except washing the mud off, he went to the top of Monte Sano in it yesterday This is pretty good test of the condi- tion of an auto. pr. Dedman will return home today, leaving this city at half past o'clock He will seek new route to Birmingham. going by way of Triana. Summerville and Blountsville. This is a

REPUBLIC IRON 6 STEEL

From the Wall Street Journal.
 The fiscal year of Republic Iron and Steel ended June 3O and it is admitted the earnings for the year were poor The annual report will be probably issued this month. It Is expected to show, besides large falling off in earrings an insuffi- cient working capital. The lack of ample working capital has been one of the com pany's weak points ever since its ncep- tion. The suspension of the preferred dividend has enabled the company to use all profits in the business
 While 1t Is admitted that the company could use more working capital 1t Is denied that it has a large floating debt, as rumored. This rumor was current about two months ago. President Thomp- son then said that the company was able to get all the money that it required from it's bankers in Chicago. One of the companys directors Is also a director in three Chicago banking institutions, and practically all of the companys financing is done by these three banks.
 There has been a good deal said lately about the companys oil operations in In- diana. The latest advices from the com pany on this point are that the output of oil for January amounted to 27,OOO bar rels. Indiana crude oil is selling for O. cents at the well. therefore 1t Is obvious that the company's oil business IS as yet rather insignificant. The outlook, how ever. for considerable growth in the oil business is promising and the develop ment of this department Is receiving th attention of the management

pr. smlth,s Great Work.

Several years ago, Blrminghams dis tingushed fnancier, the venerable Dr. Joseph R. Smith. built a school hou1e costing several thousand dollars, in Smthheld, a suburb of Birmingham, and has snce at an annual cost to him of from $500 to s10o0 supplemented the pub lie school fund in order for them to have a regular nine-month school term" said MT. Hinton E. Carr yesterday. "The doc tors advanced age prohibits him from visiting the school as often as he would like, so 1t is rare that he avails himself of this pleasure.
 'There is quite a colony of Italians liv- ing in Smithfeld, prominent among them have large families.
 MT Phillip Rietta. one of the thriftiest Italians living in Smithfield unwittingly amused a crowd by relating to me, his friend, the following:
 '"'Gooda morning, MT. Carr l wants telIa you a thinga.

TENNESSEE GOAL G lRoN.

From the Wall Street Journal
 The strength of Tennessee Coal and Iron stock has beeen surprise to those who are closest to the company.
 The company has not only suffered for many months from the depression in the iron and steel business, but since July l it's coal mines have been practically at a standstill, owing to strike, brought about by the fact that the company and the officials of the United Mine Workers union could not agree on a scale of wages for the ensuing year.
 Under these circumstances it has been impossible to make good show of earn ings At present the iron and steel busi- ness shows no definite tendency toward improvement and the coal strike Is in such shape that the management Is trying to operate some of the mines with non-union labor. Just how successful this attempt will be cannot be foretold. but the proba- bllity is that it will be a rather difficult task.
 So far as the rise in the stock Is con- cerned 1t is believed that it has been brought about principally through manip- ulation by prominent traders.

Judge Parker,s Reslnnation.

From the Montgomery Journal
 Judge Parker made no mistake in re- signing his Judgeshlp and in advance or the time in which he could have done so free from criticism If he had failed to tender his resignation by August 8, as was predicted by republicans the vacancy could not have been filled at the coming election, and consequently temporary appointment of his successor would have to be made. thus giving the judge a chance of reelection to the office next year when an election under that law, to fill the vacancy would have to be held.
 The Journal is glad Judge Parker acted In such manly and straightforward way giving the republican press no opportun- ity to assail his action or his motives, and we hope a good democrat will be elected this year to succeed him on the bench.

The Negro and the Bicycle.


 "The quiet and peace of Sunday morn- ing was broken in a rather unusual man ner on Fifth avenue this morning." said a resident on that thoroughfare last night. Tt seemed that a little negro had got ten too familiar with a bicycle which was the property of another of his race, and the coon and the wheel went off to- gether, without the knowledge or consent of the owner. The party in whom the ownership was vested, made strenuous objection when the loss was discovered. and with the assistance of the police. gave chase. The little negro was pursued into the alley south of Fifth avenue, where the bicycle was forsaken and he alluded his pursuers.
 "The people who reside on that portion of the avenue were surprised and mys- tlfled to see the privacy of their rear yards invaded by the police and the crowd of small boys who are ever to be found on such occasions They became more mystified when the officers began to peer under their houses and search through the weeds in the yard as # they were hunting rabbits or a chicken, pry Into the coal houses and punch under the back steps. Quite a little crowd gath cred and the interest soon became intense The little coon was not found however. and the pursuing forces finally withdrew in good order and the usual Sabbath quiet settled over the street"

 IR JAMES SAWYER, an English @1 physician. has been promulgat- O ing some rules for prolonging life to one hundred years. He is not the first man who has done this. If any one were to. follow all the rules that have been published for becoming centenar- elf-contradietory and destructive. One persons Manual of the Perfect Cen the next mans cautions you to eschew all milk as if it were a poison. One tells you that more than six hours sleep ossi- fes your nerve centers, makes you pre- maturely old and drops you into a senie grave at 50. The next one says you must sleep nine hours of the twenty-four if you want to live long. The centenarians bill of fare, taking all these advices to- gether includes everything and bars everything. If you refused to eat every thing upon which some eminent authority has put his band, you would have noth- ing at all to eat.
 We cannot mention all of Sir James Sawyer's rules, but some of the most egregious of them enforce attention.

Cotton Figures.

What will cotton do this year?' was asked one who watches the markets closely, and who is a large planter of the "black belt"
 'If I only knew I could get rich" was the answer, but my guess is that the crop will be record breaker, and the price lower than that estimated by planters who put in increased acreage. In 1902-3 the commercial crop of this country was 10,- 725,422 bales. In 19O1-2 it was 1O662, 995, in 1900-1 i0.4O1, 453; Tn 1s99-19OO 9,142,s ,s3s; in 1s9s-9 11,1s9,2O5; in 1s97-s, 1o,s97s57 bales. The general estimate of the present grow ing crop is 100000 bales. If these figures are reached it may, l think, be safely pre- dicted that the crop will bring to the south s70O.ooOOOO, of which amount Ala bama will get liberal share.

Proqress in Panama.

Panama seems to be using the ten millions it got from this country for canal rights wisely and advantageous ly. Seven millions of the amount has been invested in good property in this country, so that it will bring to the little republic an income of a thousand dollars day, and the other three millions has been apportioned among the seven provinces of the re- public, according to population, to be expended in the erection of schools, police stations, court houses, prisons, hospitals, and the like.
 The province of Panama is to re- ceive one million of Uncle Sam, with which it expects to build a capitol, municipal palace, palace of justice, H. brary and museum, university for the sciences, school of arts, offices and commerce, theatre, police station, pub lie jail, and a normal college for young men. This will be making a million dollars go a good ways, but the Pana- manans have not our desire to do things on a grand scale. Their build ings will be suited to their needs, and they will be of moderate cost.

Hot Fiqht in California.

Although California gave Mckinley plurality of 39,77O four years ago, yet two years ago the republican can didate for governor was glad to slip into office on a plurality of 1850. It is a state prolific in isms and schisms, and new-party movements. There are populists, socialists and prohibition ists in 1t, and all and all of these will be to select an electoral ticket this fall that meets their views. The socialists and prohibitionlsts each poll about six thousand votes, and the populists about a like number.
 In 1892 and 1896 the state was un- comfortably close, the democrats car rying it in 1892, and the republicans in 1896, but the plurality in the latter year was but 2797. The state has been tied to neither of the great par ties in the past. and it plainly affords Judge Parker a fighting chance.
 The jingo republican party expects to carry it by talking Panama ca nal" Pacific trade" and "empire, :" hut the voters of Calornia read and write, and such chaff will not be apt to be accepted by them. The public schools of California are excellent, and they have been in operation long enough to fill the state with body of intelligent voters, and in this intel ligence rests the hopes of the demo- crats. They expect to carry the state for Parker and Davis, but they appre- clate the fact that victory will only come after a severe contest.
