Isolation of Russia,

Count Cassini, the Russian ambassa- dor, endeavors in talk to a corre- spondent of the Associated Press to dissaude Americans from their anti Russian Jennings. The truth is, Amer ica is not bit exceptional. All races other than Russians look at the situa- ton through similar spectacles. Rus sia stands morally isolated, without people friendly to her.
 All consider her guilty of both greed and duplicity. She compelled Japan to release territory that the latter had conquered in war in order that she could herself seize it and bring it with in her rules of trade monopoly. She has gone to the Far East to secure both territory and trade. She is the aggressor, and her aggressions threaten the peace and independence of Japan She never fails to resort to duplicity tO 6diu dn CuN, anu lhO plCuBCb pnc broke in relation to withdrawal from Manchuria surprised no one.
 Under such circumstances she is not entitled to the sympathy of any intel ligent and well-meaning people, least of all Americans. That traditional friendship which Count Cassini pleads will fall on deaf ears in the south at any rate. It had nothing to rest upon. There is nothing in common between autocratic Russia and freedom-loving America, not thing, not even Tolstoi, who has been outlawed in his native land, but who remains there because Russia does not expel him.
 Count Cassini pleads in vain. The isolation of his country is complete. simply because it stands for greed and duplcity. This country will remain neutral, but distrustful. We distrust Russia's intentions towards China and the open door, and we admire Japan csc pluck, and wish her complete sue cess in the present war

Unpledqed Delegations.

Wilcox has selected, it is said, Cleve- land delegates, and Dallas may send to Montgomery a Hearsts delegation. The war goes merrily on, and the free and independent voter is enjoying political picnic.
 But the voters usually act wisely when they go up to the ballot box, and no doubt they will when they cast bal lots in the all-decisive primary to be held next month. The froth of the campaign will then be forgotten, and the voter will remember his country and his state and his party and he will act wisely. He always does. No power is so trust worthy in this coun- try as the power of the people. This is the judgment of all experience in this country, and this is why 1t will after while supplant all conventions, even those of the national sort. The people should for their own good and for the sake of popular expressions confirm this view on April II.
 All in all it is doubtful whether it is best to select county delegations pledged to any particular aspirant Un- instructed and unpledged delegations made up of representative men would seem to offer the best prospect of a state delegation to St Louis that will satisfy the political desires of Alabama democrats. The friends of Mir. Cleve- land and MT Hearst are particularly aggressive, but aggressiveness at this stage of the problem is scarcely ad- visable. Alabama will be best served by a delegation that goes to St. Louis that goes there to listen and to confer "a delegation that will act on the spot in the manner that best promises the success of the old party and of it's un- dying principles. An unpledged, un- committed state delegation, made up of twenty-two representative men, IS what this state should have, and i. is what will best represent Alabama dem- ocrats at St. Louis in their present frame of mind.

Lona Service in Compress.

The Washington Post recently re- viewed the house of representatives, and the conclusions reached were that few or no men become influential in that body until they have served four terms. As a rule they are not well placed on committees until their serv- ice extends to eight years. Speaker Cannon is serving his sixteenth term. The extreme northeastern state, Maine, has, says the Post, exerted more in- fiuence on national legislation and politics than any dozen of western states, and It's old delegation scored an average service of twenty-two and one-third years. designations, deaths and insanity have brought new men into the Maine delegation, and it is not at present very influential, but that state still clings to the policy of long service in the house of representatives.
 In some states political control is not stable, and it is difficult in many in- stances to secure terms of long service, but there are many long-service men from all the states. MT. Payne, chair; man of the ways and means commit tee, is in his thirteenth term, as is General Bingham of Pennsylvania, the father of the house, and MT. Richard son of Tennessee, formerly the leader of the minority. MT. Hit of Illinois, chairman of the foreign relations com mittee, has had twelve terms. It is unnecessary to extend the list.
 Alabama has as a rule adopted the long-servie policy and MT. Bankhead, who is well-placed on the rivers and harbors and public buildings and grounds committees, is serving a ninth term. Mir Underwood of the appropria. tions committee comes next with five terms to his credit. MT. Clayton of the judiciary committee is a four-term member, and so is Mir Taylor of the appropriations committee. By main taining the plan oI long tenure in the house Alabama can immeasurably add to her influence in congress, and this seems to be the policy that the state has adopted We need four-term members at least all round, and as much longer service as circumstances will admit of, even reaching up to Speaker Cannon's service of thirty-two years.

HOW kouRoPArkIN GOT THERE

From the Chicago Record Herald
 It is reported on good authority that General Kouropatkn is an Irishman, who went to Russia for the purpose of prac- ticing medicine. curious story comes from St. Petersburg concerning the man ner In which the general got his Russian name. It was during the reign of the present czar.s father. The old czar had been in poor health for several months. He had been treated by the court physi- eians without obtaining relief. German and English specialists had been called in, but they were unable to help the au- tocrat. Finally one of his majesty's advis- CTS went to him one day with remark able story concerning cures that had been made by an Irish doctor, who had hung out his shingle in St.. Petersburg. The czar was not inclined to put much faith In the Irishman, but the minister urged that the foreign doctor be given trial anyway, saying:
 'I am confident your majesty, that if anybody on earth can Kouropatkin." Pat was called; he fixed the czar up in short order. and at once became a court fa- yorite, having taken his name from the remark of the monarchs confidential ad- wiser.

chinano,s Public Spirit.

"Chicagos musical atmosphere IS no better than that of other cities, said music lover "but the people of Chicago have more public spirit than is found in any other city in this country, 1 thlhA' as evidenced by the fact that they nave raised ss5O,OOO for the purpose ot plaeins the Chicago orchestra of which Theodore Thomas is conductor, on permanent basis. The fund will be brought up soon to $75O 0OO-the amount needed.
 Thomas organized the Chicago orches- tra ten years ago and the deficit made up by the guarantors At the end or eacn season has been quite large, amounting Tn one season alone to $e5,0OO. In view of the deficit money paid out in ten years past the raising of s75OO00 will be the result or uncommon pluck and public spirit.
 Music lovers of New York have tried from time to time to raise fund With which to endow an orchestra in that city but no headway was ever made. The Boston Symphony orchestra owes It's ex- istenee to the liberality of one man. MT. Higginson, who made good the annual de- ficits through a long series Of years ana until the orchestra became self support ing. Had the Boston public been called on to endow the orchestra. the required amount never would have been subscribed perhaps.
 "Out of the Chicago fund of $75OOOO, music hall is to be built at cost of about s250. GOO The balance will be invested so as to yield sufficient revenue to meet the ordinary deficits If the Chicago orches- tra is ever self supporting at the present prices of admission to the concerts, the tickets will either be reduced or extra performances will be given.
 The Thomas orchestra is great adver- tisement for Chicago and many of the subscribers to the endowment fund took only that view of the matter

The New Baltimore.

"The first pictures of the buildings that are to make the new Baltimore are be- ginning to appear in Baltimore papers, V said a resident of the stricken city yes- terday. "To judge from these drawings the new city will be even more handsome than the old. A number of great office buildings are alerady projected and it is only a matter of time before architects will have plans completed for others. The determination and resourcefulness dis played by Baltimoreans since the fire have been a source of much pride to the town, and people are just little bit in cIined to boast, but such desire can readily be excused under the circum- stances.
 ''The Baltimore papers have kept up with the fire news most creditably and have given us an opportunity to note the interest taken in our city by people in all parts of the United States"

Sittinu Before Hotels.

"I notice that guests are alredy be- ginning to sit out on the sidewalk before the Birmingham hotels, said travel ing man yesterday. "This seems to be a distinctive southern custom, for it is practiced in all towns from the Potomac to the Gulf that l have ever visited. While hotel chairs on the sidewalks are some times in the way, and when occu- pied by dozen or more curious drum mers are decidedly annoying to ladies who have to pass, the custom Is too firmly established to be abolished, and hotel proprietors wisely refrain from issuing a decree that will be apt to dis please their guests.
 "The average man sits on the sidewalk for several reasons. He is hot and he wants to be in. a position to see the peo- pie passing by. especially if the ladies are out in numbers Unfortunately for the hotels all the men one sees in front are not guests, for many are simple loaf CTS The loafers are especially numerous in small towns

Interest In Vulcan.

While we will not have state exhibit. the Vulcan will serve as an ex- cellent substitute and in fact, l believe 1t will be even more effective than any regular exhibit we could get together.
 "I am astonished at tn Birming- hams Vulcan is creating all over the country. All the papers are talking about 1t and in several large dailies l have seen illustrated articles describing the great figure that is to be such prominent fea- ture of the fair at St. Louis. I under stand that almost enough money Is all ready on hand to pay for the statue and I am very glad to hear it.

Suez and Panama.

Admiral Walker, president of the Panama canal commission, says there is a great amount of preliminary work to be done, and it may be two years before the work ot digging is "on" in earnest.
 The story of Panama is not unlike that of Suez De Lesseps became in terested in the Suez work as long ago as 1926, but it was not until 1854 that he secured the needful concession from the khedive, Mohammed Said, and the sultan's ratification of it was long de layed While awaiting the action of ized to build the canal. Its capi- tai being put at 40000000, or 100000 shares of $100 each. French investors took over half of the shares, and Eng land none at all.
 At length all preliminaries were con cluded, and the first spadeful of dirt 
 was thrown out on April 25 1859, and on March II, 1869 the waters of the Mediterranean were for the first time mingled with those of the sea that the Israelites crossed. The celebration of the opening of the great work did not take place until November IT, 1869, or more than ten years and half after the beginning of the construction work No one really anticipates a speedier building of the Panama canal, which must be cut in good part through a very hard rock. And if two years must be spent, as Admiral Walker says, in preliminaries, it may well be that twelve years will be consumed in the piercing of the isthmus at Panama.
 England at first tried to prevent the sultan from ratifying the concession 10 the French company, and Englishmen extended no financial aid to that com pany, but Premier Disraeli saw the mistake England had made, and when the khediye, Ismael Pasha, desired to sell the 176,6 shares that Egypt held England bought them over night at s113.6O share. Those shares are now worth $700 each. The purchase prac- tically gave England control of the canal. and | practically annexed Egypt
