OUR aUARANrrNE LAWS.


 The Advertiser is in thorough ac- cord with the precautions taken by the proper authorities to guard Alabama against yellow fever. We are no ad- vocate of shotgun quarantines and other forms of violence, firmly believ- ing that there are lawful methods of keeping out epidemics and that those methods are sufficient if faithfully carried out. The State is clear of the fever now and no reasonable trouble or expense should be spared to keep 1t out. {
 It Is because we believe in timely precautions that we uphold striot quarantine regulations against infected points, The city of Montgomery would not be safe one day if its doors were thrown wide open to all the travelling public. Communication between this city and New Orleans Is easy and con- tinuous. If passengers from that city or from any other infected point were allowed to stop here at pleasure we would soon have an epidemic and it would spread to other sections of the State where conditions are favorable. The State tias not prevented passengers even from New Orleans travelling across the State, but it does prevent them from stopping inside the State at points not immune against the disease. That is right which the State au- thorities possess and they are exercis- ing it intelligently and firmly.
 The claims and contentious of the man Witherspoon have not a leg to stand on. He has apparently gotten an Idea into his head that interstate law is superior to all State laws and police regulations. and that he has a right to pass through or stop in Ala bama at will. Our quarantine system would be entirely worthless if a man direct from New Orleans could be al- lowed to pass through this city to Att lanta and at once return through Ala bama to New Orleans. To allow this would not be much better than to allow the New Orleans refugees to come d. rect to this city and stop. No such slipping around will be allowed. as Mir. Witherspoon OF any other man will be made to understand if he persists in attempting 1t. Refugees are given all privileges of going away from New Or leans and passing through Alabama.
 His attempt to create friction be- tween Louisiana and Alabama, or be- tween the Federal and our State au- thorities will come to nothing We give Governor Blanchard credit for bet ter judgment than that he should at tempt to interfere with the operations of our moderate quarantine. Neither do we believe that any Federal court will set aside the State laws and regulations on this subject. MT. with- erspoon has too high an estimate of his own importance.
The Montgomery advertiser., 1905-08-26
A MATTER OF GREAT MOMENT.

This apparently solid old earth of ours has cut many capers in it's time, if we may believe the deductions of geologists and other scientists. In fact, if we eliminate the question of time entirely we may say that the earth Is not solid, but is liable at any time to make a break that will confuse things very much. Evidently it has al- ways been thus. It is apparently be- yond doubt that large portions of what Is now high land was once entirely be- meath the ocean. It is equally true that much of what is now the bed of ocean was once part of the earth's sur face.
 It is not claimed that all these changes were the result of some vio- lent and sudden disturbance. Probably some of them were. There are indi- cations that at some time in the far distant past there have been cataclysms which changed the entire face of nature over large areas, changing sea to land and land to sea, but in other places the indications are that in one place the land was gradually submerged and in another it slowly rose from the bed of old ocean and became part of the habitable earth.
 Have we any reason to believe that such changes are at an end? On the contrary, Is it not fact that they are still going on? We have been accus- toned to the statements of geographers and geologists that there is very slow but gradual sinking of some of the coast of Great Britain. But we are now assured that something of the kind Is going on much nearer home and at a rate that makes it a really serious proposition. This from The Portland oregonian tells what Is hap pening, and what may reasonably be expected to happen if there is not a

NOT HOPING FOR MUCH.

Hon Andrew D. White. who probably knows more of Russia and the Russian people than any other American, says the so-ealled concessions of the Czar "fall considerably short of what was hoped for. but may have value as be- ginning" Then he remarks:
 There is no guarantee for the carry ing out what there is of good in the system. save the Czar's word, and that. 1t must be confessed, has not proved to who have received 1t can rely very firmly. He violated his oath to Ftp- land and he has, according to all the accounts which reach us. made promise as they have been made. If he would stand by his best men, such, for exam ple, as M Witte in financial affairs and Martens in international affairs. we might hope for very great improve ment. Unfortunately, there Is no cer- tainty that the same influences which haze been so fatal to Russia thus far in the keeping these men in the back ground. will not be equally powerful in the future.
 It Is plain that the veteran observer is not at all optimistic In the premises. Obviously the possibility of good re- suits from the movement depends on two things: one Is the manner in which the Russian people will take the con- 6ession, and the other Is whether the Czar himself will carry out even the guarded and limited reforms he has promised. and on neither of these points can there be any certainty. There has been so much unrest and dissatisfaction among the people of late that no one need be surprised if they refuse to be satisfied with the quarter loaf that has been offered them. On the other hand. the Czar is notoriously uncertain and untrust- worthy. Whether this results from a naturally timid or vacilating disposi- ton, or whether he is held in subjec- ton by the radicals of the nobility. does not matter. so far as actual re- suits go. If real good comes of the present movement 1t will be a gratify- ing surprise.

THEY WILL. ANYHOW.

Up in wisconsin & school board Is worrying over the question: Should a public school teacher have a beau? If we were disposed to answer one ques- ton with another we might retort: Rhauld duck swim? One Wisconsin lady teacher writes:
 Why shouldn't she2 She is accus- toned to settle other weighty problems for herself-why not this one1 If she feels the need of the spice and reerea- tion which bagging game of this Kind is supposed to bring, surely the privi-- 1ege ls hers to enter the game of chance and later draw from the matri- It is hardly worth while for the outside world to trouble itself, for she will settle this thing for herself
 or course she will settle the question for herself. That's just what she should do. and she'll do 1t anyhow. whether she ought or not. Any school board or other organization which att tempts to interfere with inalienable right of a pretty teacher to have beau of her own will be up against an im- possible proposition. A competent young lady teacher who attends to her 0uhAob nhS n ldAu ShOu5h tAhhS eAI pSSN' No one except those who have had the job of managing and looking after a crowd of rollicking, rule-breaking and patience ce-destroying young 'uns can form any conception of the trials and troubles through which they have to pass. Many parents with two or three children Of their own to look after think they have an exceedingly hard time, and if they had score or two e other folks kids to manage and control they would give up the job.
 Is 1t fair to say that one of these young ladies whose life is daily and hourly worry and torment shall not have e beau if she wants one2 Such a prohibition on the part of any board would be the veriest tyranny and would be useless besides. If an at- tractive young lady wants beau she will have him, and ought to have him.
