whrcomb High School Football.

Whitcomb High school began the
season Saturday by defeating Woodstock
High school at Woodstock, p to II.
Bethel scored their points in the first half,
their goal never being in danger. In the
second half, Woodstock gained steadily,
both through the line aud around the end.
The obvious criticism is that Bethel's
players are not hardened down sufficiently
for good work.
Shaw made the first touchdown on the
second play after Woodstock kicked to
Bethel. Goal by Huber. In three minutes
more, Topper had carried the ball across
the line again. BY carelessness the ball
was allowed to touch the ground after
being brought out for the try-at goal,
and Woodstock blocked the kick. After
few plays, Shaw secured the ball on
tumble 10y Woodstock and again scored.
Goal by Huber. After number Of plays
in which small gains were made, Dinsmore
scored. No goal. Shaw repeated his play
OF scoring on Woodstock's tumble. No
goal.
On the second half Woodstock received
the ball and advanced steadily into
Bethels territory. Laid made a touch
down In seven minutes OF play, by run
around right end. No goal. During the
next 1--WE minutes, Bethel held the bail
once or twice, but could not make dis
lance Thomas made the second touch
down for Woodstock by plum ye through
the line. Shaw was put out OF the game
by the referee for disputing q decision.
Goal 10y Laid. The game ended with the
ball i'm Bethels territory

WILL THEY BE TRTEDs

We are told on what seems B0od du- thority that the long fight which Gay nor and Green have been making against their extradition from Canada has practically ended, and lawyers believe that they have reached the end of their tether. It has been a somewhat remarkable case and most people have probably forgotten the details.
 Gaynor, Greene and Captain oberiin M. Carter were indicted in Savannah six years ago on charges of fraud and embezzlement in connection with harbor improvement contracts at that port. Carter was convicted and sent to prison at Fort Leavenworth, but the other two forfeited their bonds after arrest and escaped to Canada where they have been fighting extra dition ever since. We do not not call to mind the exact amount of their stealage but 1t is believed to have been in the neighborhood of s2.ooo,o00.
 For considerably more than five years these two criminals have been fighting all efforts to have them re- turned to Georgia. Had they been without money there would have been little difficulty about having them brought back to Savannah, and no doubt they would now be doing time as Carter did, for they were evidently equally guilty, if not more so. Fortu- nately for their liberty they had plen- ty of means and have thus been able to employ the finest legal talent and to take advantage of every technical ity and every obstructiyeI measure that the law affords, so that they have remained free while their asso- teiate was paying his part of the pen alty.
 Their case affordsa another instance of the power wielded by wealth and influence in shielding criminals. Equal and exact justice only applies to those who are equal in money and influence The laws of this and other countries have many loop holes through which good lawyers can pull a client if they are paid for it, and we suppose nc once will deny that real criminals sometimes escape for no other reason than that they can afford the cost oi fighting their cases through the vari' ous courts Gaynor and Greene may have reached the end of their rope but we are not sure of 1t.

PHENoMENAL GROWTH.

Everywhere in Alabama the cause of Education seems 10 be progressing. It is the same story from the public schools, from private schools and from the colleges. Increased attendance and greater than ever known. It Is well for parents and guardians to read the news in The Advertiser this morn ing from Auburn. The number al- ready enrolled for the Polytechnic In- stitute is 541 and prospect of others.
 This institution has enjoyed steady growth until the limit has almost been reached.
 If the State of Alabama desires the institution to progress still further and to give young men the scientific and technical training that will fit them for developing the resources of the State, the law-making powers must give her more funds. More laborato- ries, more shops. more machinery and more equipment are needed. all of which will mean more of our young men of Alabama addressing them selves to the development of the well nigh untouched resources of this great State The simple question is as to whether Auburn will be permitted to continue this natural growth.
 There ought to be no hesitation in this matter. If equipment is provided the number of students at Auburn will soon be double the present large figures

Cotton Manufacturing in the south.

Washington Post
 In the last three years 4sS cotton mills have been erected and an6stttsS or this south of Mason and Dixon's line This has had much to do with the marked changes in the conditions connected a change which was the chief topic of discussion at the recent meeting Of the New England Cotton Manufacturers Association at Atlantic City. Members of the association discussed at great length the necessity of action looking to the enlargement of the market for the product of the American cotton mills. and frankly exchanged figures and experiences showing that the mills of manufacturing in the last few years and have made it necessary TOT the New England mills to look to the foreign sion is a remarkable tribute to the spirit of the new South, which is no longer content to plant and pick cotton but now raises, markets, and manu- ners for many years had all they could do to supply the demands of the home market. but now the South, with It's materials at the door of the mills; With n!fcent streams, furnishing a cheap and never-failing supply Of fuel, water, and power; with its cheaper laDor' oW-
 ing to the cheaper cost or llVlng; Win all the natural and artificial advanta- ges that may be proftably employed in the manufacture of the home grown crop, is finding a welcome In the home markets and forcing the New EngIand mills to scan foreign fields for an out let for their surplus. That they have been successful in this search is shown by the fact that exports ot cotton June were in excess of $5o.0o0.ooo, an increase of 800 per cent in ten years The resources of the South are just De- ed Her inevitable prosperity can hardly be exaggerated by pred1cha1A

The old Family Bible.

Itopened the family Bible And turned the worn pages OCT Till came to an old fashioned rose
 there pressed,
 Given me by one had loved and ca
 ressed--
 Twas the rose my old sweetheart had
 worn in her breast
 And it brought back the days of yore. I opened It's faded petals;
 In my hand it crumbled away: And I thought of a time when tt wa
 fragrant and sweet.
 Of the evening she wore 1t, while I
 at her feet Vowed there was nowhere a maid half
 so sweet,
 An. it's Ian there for many a day. I thought of the joys and heartaches. That old family Bible had known, As turned the leaves with a tear and One by one while the scenes rolled Yet a form so childish and sweet and stood out from the rest alone. Yes, the face of my old time sweetheart In mem'ry can never die Though she played me false I can neer The Sweet long ago when first we And her old sweet smile can see even As it comes from the days gone by.

suner.titgon of Nevroe.

'The negro voodoo doctor still four ishes in Lowndes," said Hon. Robert L.. Goldsmith. Representative in the Leg tslature from that county. If any one doubts the ignorance and superstition Of the negro he should go among them on some of our black belt plantations. I have in mind one negro in my county. who reaps a harvest with his cures for ailments by a 'conjure bag He bricks the gums of his victims and requires them to deposit bloody saliva in an. oak leaf: he then takes an axe and chops a piece of bark from q tree depositing the leaf in the receptacle The bark Is nailed on the tree and be- hold, the toothache has disappeared and a fee Is collected.
 There Is another negro who prac- tices form of hypnotism. know one negro who is so completely under his control that he Is wasting his life away and will ultimately die of the spell. This Is nothing more nor less than the effect of the mind over matter. The victim cannot talk about anything but the fact that he has been 'contured by the doctor; and he Is unfit for work of any sort

nonGING THE ISSUE.

The St. Louis obe-Demoerat has posed under a false name so long that nobody Is deceived by 1t, but 1t is real ly among the leading Republican pa pers of the great Middle West. It's prominence and position, however, do not prevent it from resorting to real- ly disreputable methods in order to soften the disgTaceful disclosures which have been made public in con- nection with the New York Life. It tries to make it appear that 1t is the Democrats who are discredited by these disclosures, and tells us that these campaign contributions show in a striking way the discredit into which the Democratic party has fal- len among the business interests of the country
 This attempt to befog the issue and to throw the discredit on the Demo- crats may be The Globe-Democrat's idea of politics, but 1t is not that of any fair-minded man or newspaper There has been so much said on this matter that we think a little more will not be out of place, and some of 1t from the records It must be borne in mind as we go along that MT. Cortelyou, now a member of the Cab inet and one of the Presidents con | fidential advisers, was at that time Chairman of the Republican campaign committee, and to him the money of the policyholders of the New York [ Fa nat A. paid and we have no reason to doubt that he knew that the money should not have been used in such a way.
 So much for the conditions. On Oc- | tober 25, Judge Parker made this charge against the Republican party:
 Political contributions by corpora tions or trusts mean corruption. They concerns are moved by merely busi- ness considerations. A corpora ton will make a political contribution to poration expects that party through it's | control of public officers, executive or legislative. to do something for the | fuse to do somethin to it's injury. No other motive can be imagined In the nature of things, no other motive
 Let the defenders of the practice. if it has defenders, answer this question : Why do corporations ana trusts sub scribe to political campaigns? If the public welfare and the trusts should conflict which would likely to be pro- | tected?
 These corporations have decided to attempt to continue the present ad- ministration in power. Their repre- sentatives scolded about the President | for some months and thus contributed to the effort which was made to sat isfy the country that the trusts were | opposed to the present administration
 Now. on the contrary, it is com mined to furnish such a sum of money ] to the Republican national committee as. it is hoped, will secure the fiosts CTS in the doubtful States for tho Re- l publican ticket. Such an attempt con l stitutes both a menace and "a chai- ienee to every patriotic and law hid- : ing person in the country. and a cbal- lenge which ought to be accepted.
 These charges were direct and to the point. and MT. Roosevelt, then took it on himself to reply to them.
The Montgomery advertiser., 1905-09-27

After alIuding to the cnarges them-
 selves. and to the Democratic candi-
 date who made them. he uses this Ian
 guage:
 There is not one particle of truth i in the statement as regards anytning | that has gone on in the management
 MI Parker's accusations against MT. l Cortelyou and myself are monstrous. | If true, they would brand us both for-
 they are false, heavy must be the con-
 denination of the man making them
 I chose MT. Cortelyou Wtth ,ii extreme rene him in the cabinet. but felt that. he possessed the high integrity which I demanded in the man who was to man. age gTbs ms Assertion th that Mir. cortelyou had any knowledge gained while if any Died to Secure and did secure any con falseheod': faiseblSaI The The statements msde bg MT. Parker are unqualifiediy and atrociousiy false.
 This language Is certainly as plain as English can be written. and in 1t he more than once brands Judge Par ker as a liar. That the effect was unfavorable to Judge Parker and to Democratic chances is beyond doubt. The country, at least at that time. be- lieved that Roosevelt would not speak so plainly unless he were sure of his facts. Therefore they believed him, believed that Judge Parker had ut- tered a islander and this caused him to lose confidence and support when he most needed 1t. In short. they held that 6 candidate for President who would deliberately islander and mis- represent the opposite party was not worthy of confidence and they with held 1t.
 Now it is shown that Parker was correct, and that the Republicans were guilty of all he had charged them with. So far as he is concerned he has been fully vindicated. but in what condition does 1t leave the President7 The evidence shows beyond doubt that he slandered Judge Parker when he accused him of lying. If any false statements were made they were made by the man who was afterwards elec- ted President If the man who is now President is as honest in his declar- ations for a square deal for every body, as he claims, he ought to apolo- gize to Judge Parker for the injus- tiee he did that gentleman.
 But this is not all. To use the lan- guage of The Omaha World-Heraid the President lis impaled on the horns of a dilemma. Either MT. Cortelyou, as chairman, accepted that money with the knowledge and consent of the President or without 1t. If the for mer, then the President Is estopped, by that very fact. from denouncing the action merely because 1t has been made public. If the latter. then Cor telyou deceived and misrepresented his chief in accepting the money and using 1t to promote the candidacy of Theodore Roosevelt. In that event Cortelyou cannot, with consistency. be retained inc the cabinet as one of the Presidents closest and most trusted advisers" And so, if he retains Cor telyou he condemns himself, and if he dismisses him he doesn't help matters much. It Is a sure enough dilemma and either horn is a sharp one.

Life Insurance and the soutb.

Let us hope" said business man. that the suggestion which ], believe into practice. That is, that Southern men organize a strong mutual life in- surance company so as to keep our money money Tn our section and stop paying East, which. according to the state ments or their officers. have grossly mismanaged the business and used our money Tor their own selfish purposes.
 One or two big mutual companies in the South, with the proper men at their heads. would begin as successes and we would keep our money at home, the of ficers would draw appropriate salaries and the business would be managed on a safe basis. rather like the idea and l hope Southern insurance men will take 1t up."
