A PERTURBED CONTEMPORARY.

The Portsmouth Star Is worried over Philadelphia. the city where all brands of brotherly love are popularly supposed to have their abiding place. The cause of it-or one of the latest causes of the wor- riment--is connected with the case of Gib- son, the light-hued West Indian negro who was assistant janitor at the Uniyer- sity of Pennsylvania. Deceived, no doubt by the broad philanthropy professed by people about him, and the absurd fallacy that all men are equal, Gibson palmed himself off on an unsuspecting white girl as white student and married her.
 Gibson is represented as of very light hue, and could easily pass himself off as spaniard from the West Indies. The girl was doubtless ignorant of the fact that he had negro blood in him, or she may not have cared, but the faculty of the University knew 1t and when 1t was learned that he had taken to himself a white wife he was promptly fired. Then he went back and murdered the night watchman, whom he accused of exposing him. These are the facts about which The Star is moved to say:
 Race prejudice ought not to show it's hateful uncharitable. unjust aspect in Philadelphia. What difference should the color of mans skin make to the noble and sympathetic citizens of the City of

Senator Lodge. through the Massachu- setts Republican platform, eulogizes the President for interfering in "an impend. sylvania. So Isoon is history forgotten. The complaint of the operators was that the President used his office to dominate and control their business at stage of a strike already on, when they believed they had the strikers beaten. or in a fair way to be beaten. Roosevelt undoubtedly by bis action saved Northern consumers of coal much suffering. Just as certainly. though, he will have to reckon with the hostility his interference in a private busi- ness aroused.

 If 1t Is not incapacity. then the Mayor and the City Engineer have clearly abused the perogatives of their power, and have stopped to unfair means. We prefer failure to success, when accom- panied by such methods.
 Graded streets constitute the true theory of government, the greatest good to the greatest number. The Mayor and the City Engineer improve the streets with greatest good to the fewest number giving everybody what everybody wants, sacrificing the convenience of many to the wishes of few.
 We have endeavored to discuss grade upon high plane, as of general in- terest. The grading or not of Adams Street Is a small matter, merely incl dental to the general policy that streets should first be graded to utility and beauty before vast sums are expended for their permanent improvement MT Hartley, former chairman of the Street Committee, will bSNr witness, that for the last ten years, we have advocated graded thoroughfares throughout the city.

DALE COUNTY.
There Was No Ticket for Delegates
 to State Convention.

A gentleman from Dale County writes to The Advertiser that the dispatch to The Advertiser from Ozark. dated April takes. For instance it said: TWO sets of delegates. Cleveland, and anti-Cleve- land. were in the field for the State Con vention." There was but one list of del egates, all names on the regular ticket. n contained about a dozen names. and from it each voter selected the six he de- sired. There was TO issue of Cleveland or anti-Cleveland, and as a matter of fact, the ones defeated. were aVowedly for Judge Parker. How the six who were elected stand I do not know, but they would never be chosen by the Dem- ocrats of Dale if they were to announce that they favored the candidacy of the preposterous Hearst"

THE STATE CONSTITUTION

EdItOr The Advertiser:
 The claim of the Walker County Dem ocrats for greater representation is well founded and can be granted without do- ing violence to any precedent or ,he Constitutional Convention recognized that Walker County's increase in popu- lation since 1890 warranted the addition of member to it's representation in the House of Representatives. Certainly the State Committee should recognize this a declaration in favor of increase for Walker everywhere else when population is considered or concerned.

An Error Corrected.


 Editor The Advertiser:
 In your issue of yesterday (Monday) in the graphic delineation of Bishop Cand- leP's sermon at the Court Street Church. in Montgomery Sunday morning, there crept in an error such as is very likely to occur if one is not well acquainted with all the names used. The report spoke paragraph six. column twol of Methodtsts in Alabama, which would mislead a good many. The Bishop was evidently speaking there, not of all the Alatama Methodists, but those of the statistics, very carefully revised each year, showed that in the Alabama Con- ference last year there were 5S,1S9 mem- bers, which number has since been much increased, while the North Alabama Con- ference showed last year 1885 members likewise since increased. That, as you will observe, would make more than l25.- 0uO members of the two conference in all. These figures of course do not include the Methodist Protestants, who have gou3ly number. nor do they include the M. E.. Church (North) which likewise has an annual conference in this State,
 Again, in the next paragraph the ac- count mentioned says: He said that the two Conference Colleges of Alabama must be endowed" What was meant was evidently, The two colleges of the Alabama Conference,' for the Methodists of Alabama, have Tn the North Alabama Conference two colleges, also the North Alabama Conference College" at Owen ton, and the Athens Female College at the latter place. The Alabama Confer ence" has only two colleges, the South ern University at Greensboro and the Alabama Conference Female College at Tuskegee. but the Methodists Of Ala bama'' have four.
 As no one in today's paper had cor rected the error. I give the above facts. as the. statements mentioned would be misleading las NJ. Glenn

Every achievement of Roosevelt upon which he is relying for his election, ex- cept the merger decision. was done out side of and in defiance of law. There is proof he had arranged to back up the Panama Revolutionists weeks before the blow was struck. His interference in the coal strike was confessedly an act in do- ing which he stepped outside his office and the law governing 1t. His numerous sus- pensions of the rules to be enforced in the civil service are in the same class, while his pension order assumed legisla- tive power in the most fragrant way. Ills mind is not powerful, but 1t is lawless. His untrained lawlessness is the cause of the dread he excites on every hand when 1t is considered he may be given four years more of untrammelled power.

Judge Parker's candidacy is getting such a momentum that Bryan must begin to feel sorry he spoke. If he succeeds in winning place on the Nebraska delega- ton, it now seems likely he will go to St. Louis with only one ardent thick and thin supporter. namely, William Jen- hlngs Bryan.

Buffalo Bills New Game.

The genial Colonel W. F. Cody, whose
creative ability in new entertainments has
already added so much to the joy 81 TIT
crowned heads and nobility Of Europe,
has conceived another delightful amuse-
ment in offering n man hunt to the noble
English and millionaire New Workers,
who are visiting him at his home in
Wyoming.
In this day of seeming excitement and
novelty are commodities whose marked
value depends solely on the skill with
which their inventor offers them for
sale. Having dined with King Edward
VII, who was then Prince of Wales and
hunted with the Quorn pack arrayed in
the conventional regalla Of tho dime
novel scout, and attended Dy an escort
OF Indians and cowboys, Colonel Cod,
returned to America leaving behind him
the belief that In Wyoming alone could
the laden youth of London and Paris find
real life. This belief has sent many a
young sprig Of nobility hurry1ng across
sea and land to sit at the feet of the
greatest teller OF Western scout stories
in the world Also there could be easily
found and killed large numbers Of peace
full elk. all of which tended TO
strengthen the opinion Of the amateur
nimrods that they were mighty hunters.
But, as Mr., Kipllng says: The best
is the hunting Of man. and n gang OF
dcsperadoes having considerably under
taken to loot a bank and kill the cashier
Buffalo Bill has been enabled to offer
his guests the rare novelty of man hunt.
It is noteworthy that all the guests did
not accept, for not even the protecting
algis Of Colonel Cody's fame would stop
an outlaw from shooting some obstruct-
Ing pursuer who had come out merely
ito see how they catch dcsperadoes in
wyoming. don't you know"
If perchance the bank robbers do get
caught. there will be stories Of valor told
in New York and London clubs this win
ter beside which the heroism Of Port
Arthur or Lao Yang will be as nothing.
And Buffalo Bill Will have still further
endeared himself to the hearts OF the
pleasure seekers OF two great capitals.
