 Regarding the speaking campaign, 1t is yet too early to make extended comments. William J. Bryan will make several speeches in Indiana and Missouri in September. Speaker Can non is under the exclusive Jurisdiction of the Congressional Campaign Com mittee. He will open the Republican campaign in Indiana at Richmond on September 1. He will then go East to give aid in the Vermont and Maine campaign.
 Senator Fairbanks will make awo speeches in Chicago, one under the aus pices of the Marquette Club, October 8. He will make one speech at St. Louis, four in Indiana. three in Ohio and at least one in Wisconsin during Septem- Der and the first week in October. In the West he will be assigned to duobt full Congressional districts. He opens the campaign at Kansas City, Septem- Der 2.
 Secretary Shaw is to address the Ma tional League of Republican Clubs in Indianapolis October 6. Lawrence B. Stringer. Democratic candidate for Gov ernor. will stump every county in Illinois as will Charles B. Deneen, Re- publican standard bearer.
 George D. Knight, of California, and probably Senator Foraker, will sound the first battle cry in Chicago Septem- Hamilton Club Clarence S. Darrow, who seconded the nomination of Hearst for President at St. Louis, will tour the Middle West for Eugene V. Debs.
 Active Campaign for Debs. Socialists promise to make large gains in Illinois, Colorado and Wiscon- sin and in several of the Western populous centres. Nineteen labor unions, according to reports to the Re- publican National headquarters, have already affiliated themselves actively with the Debs movement. Debs will make countrywide campaign. Republicans argue that most of the recruits to Debs will come from the Democracy-from the radical element which formerly supported Bryan for President and was for Hearst for the Presidential nomination. Democratic State managers in Illinois are as ready as the Republicans in asserting the in- crease in Debs's strength will be at the expense of the other fellow" Most of the miners in Southern Illi- nois," said Denis J. Hogan, chairman of the Democratic State Committed have been voting the Republican ticket for several years and that is the circumstance likely to swell the socialist column The Republican situation in Wisconsin Is as complica- ted as ever. with the National Commit tee utterly at a loss what to do to pro- mote party harmony Supreme ef- forts will be made to save Roosevelt but speakers of national influence are likely to avoid any reference to the State strife between the La FoIlete and Spooner factions. Apparently there is no remedy for this.

cRITICIsING OFFICIALS.

The New Orleans Picayune thinks that a public journal which is always knocking the city and the people whom 1t professes to represent is about the worst enemy that city and those people can have" The Mobile Register virtually agrees with The Picayune and argues:
 The wiser plan for the newspaper is to discover if possible with what dificul- ties the patriotic officials have to con tend, and thus learn where and how to help them give good government. To credit a man with honorable intention is often to inspire him with a desire to do what is right. On the contrary, to wrongfully charge him with lack os public spirit or dishonesty of purpose is to raise in him such a spirit of resent ment as to incline him to refuse to ac- cept any part of the really good ad vice the critic has to offer him.

all the while The Constitution was so positively asserting that Diogenes with his lantern couldn't find . gambler or uncover a gamblers nest in all the city. It is several times too bad.
 But if The Constitution has lost some credit for knowledgeability. the author ities have gained as much by their dras- tic methods of abating the evil. We have all along expressed doubts that a city of the size of Atlanta could be clear of the gambling fraternity and the only satisfaction we derive from finding that we were correct Is in learning that the city has guardians who know how to get hold of the law breakers and do not hesitate to punish them. Such examples will tend to make the city what The Constitution has claimed that 1t is, and this paper will congratulate the city and those who free 1t from the curse of gambling.

 Governor Cunningham has pardoned one of the Case boys who, with his cousin. made the brutal assault upon Philip Cosminsky, and who was sent has only served a little over one month of his time. Two doctors certified to the Governor that Case was suffering from tuberculosis. The Times has very great respect for one of those physi- clans. Dr. E. D.

We have no harsh criticism to pass on Governor Cunningham for issuing the parole. except to say that we think he made a mistake. It is bet ter for some characters to die of con- sumption in jail, rather than have them roaming at large. beating and kicking men who are infinitely their superior in all respects.

 The city of Jackson Is directly inter ested in the deepening of the outer bar of Mobile harbor. When the bar is deepened to thirty-five feet 1t will make e the harbor a great coallng station. It will open up trade with numerous ports that are not now in touch with Mobile, It will make the Tombigbee River and the towns located at the head of tide water very prosperous through the in creased shipping.
 We predict that the old Tombigbee will he a yeritable artery of commerce when the outer bar is deepened. A de- mand will be made for Alabama coal that will cause the locks to be com. pleted and the shipping of coal and cement as well as other minerals down tha Tombigbee will begun

 Jerry Simpsons purpose of returning to political life by entering Congress as delegate from New Mexico has been disarranged by an overwhelming defeat for the nomination.
