Japanese Buddhist Proverbs.

From Lafcadio Hearns Tn Ghostly Japan"
 There is no miracle in true doctrine. There Is no shore to the bitter sea of Birth and Death.
 Only by reason of having died does one enter Into life.
 Human life is like the dew of the morn ing.
 One confession effaces the sins of even three years.
 The fallen blossoms never return to the branch.
 With one hair of woman you can tether even a great elephant.
 Never let go the reins of the wild colt of the heart.
 Even the touching of sleeves In passing is caused by some relation In a former life

Prize Fighters and Presidents.

Now that the heavyweight champion ship matter has been disposed of for an indefinite time, we suppose there will be nothing else to detract from interest in the presidential campaign. It is well for the national campaign, though, that the prize fight is over thus early, otherwise there would have been complaint of apathy in politics. We may observe here that a law ought to be passed providing that heavy weight championship fights should be pulled off not oftener than every four years and they should be made to take place in off years so that the attention of the people might not be drawn away from governmental affairs.
 The absorbing interest manifested in the prize fight is perhaps the strong est argument against it. We suppose that last night more people were won dering who would win than there will be on the eve or the presi- dential election wondering whether it will be Roosevelt or Parker.
 A nation in which a curiosity of this sort prevails regarding the outcome of g. prize fight, has not quite reached the acme of civilization, nor fully quail flied itself for the sending of missiona- ries abroad.

ing as representatives of Russian sen tinent and as depcsitaries for special information on Russian internal af- fairs. Three-fourths of the letters written under the date of St. Peters burg are the work of nihilists in Lon don, Paris and Switzerland, who pre- tend to secure by secret message the only reliable news from the Russian capital. These men, animated by an implacable spirit of hatred, have thus become the disseminators of misinfor- nation intended to weaken the Rus sian government and to prejudice the reading public against Russia.
 Every incident is seized upon and tortured into shape to serve the pur- pose of the agitators. Stories of Rus sian brutality and corruption are en- Iarged upon and published as coming from those who know at first hands what they are talking about, and the public is supposed to accept the most extravagant fiction as unvarnished fact.
 The truth is that this propaganda has abused its privileges, has failed in the essentials of news gathering, and has aroused the distrust of the reading public. To say that a story comes from revolutionist3 or nihilists in Paris or London is to put it under suspicion or to mark it as false.

COURTLAND MEN
HAVE UNIQUE PLAN
OFFER TO DO THEIR PART IN DE-
STRoYING ENOUGH COTTON TO
REDUCE THE CROP ONE MIL
LION BALES.

CORTLAND December s. (SpecaD The
people of Lawrence county, and partic
ularly that section adjacent to Court
land are as patriotic as any people on
earth. They are willing to contribute
, their full share to the general pros
perity of the south. The government re-
port on the cotton crop found a great
many of them with hundreds of bales of
cotton on hand and not all of their debts
paid When the report came out, as is
now a matter of history, the price of the
staple, on which the south relied for a
livelihood, dropped below the cost of pro-
duction. Our people did not believe that
the report was correct, when made and
still do not believe it, but the damage
is done and poverty stares the south in
the face. With the view of discussing
WHY'S and means of reducing the ruin,
few of the representative men of this
community met this morning and pro-
mulgated the plans and resolutions set
out below The originators of these
suggestion do not know that they will
accomplish the desired end. but they are
one and all willing to sacrifice their hold
ings to large extent to alleviate the
common misfortune.
The address issued by the meeting is
as follows:
To Newspapers Cotton Exchanges, Mer-
chants and Cotton Growers:
We believe that the government esti-
mate of the cotton crop is too large by
10000 bales, but should we be mistaken
what plan is best to dispose of the sur
plus? With the cooperation of the cot
ton growers. merchants and cotton ex-
changes of the cotton belt. by all in
terested be formed, to voluntarily con-
tribute, from each cotton growing state,
a sufficient number of bales of cotton,
based on the production of each state.
to make 100000 bales, this 100000 bales
to be burned or otherwise destroyed, I'M
der the supervision of the cotton ex-
change, board of trade or corporate au-
tforities of the town or community, in
which 1t is grown. If this plan is FEAST
Bile. We the undersigned citizens OF
CORTLAND. Lawrence county, Alabama,
obligate ourselves to contribute our pro
rata share of cotton, be it fifty bales
or more, as a starter to reduce this sur
plus and obtain a fair price for the bal
ance of the crop.

above are of the representative business
