suppres ssInn the Mob snlrIt.

The Montgomery city council acted wisely when 1t took steps to prevent the performance of "The Clansman" in it's playhouses. If Atlanta had adopted similar policy In relation to news paper headlines 1t would have escaped riot that has done 1t, and through 1t, all the rest of the south, great harm. The stirring up of race hatred in states that contain vast numbers of the two races is always to be deprecated and if possible avoided. There Is too much racial strife anyway, and any addition to 1t by public means is regrettable. The Montgomery city council acted promptly and properly in "The Clans man" matter.
 Race strife points to mob action, and mob law settles nothing All the riot ing in Atlanta probably did not bring to punishment any one of the crimi- nals who recently committed heinous and atroclous crimes in or near that city, while not a few and inoffenslve and innocent negroes were butchered. Passion was aroused, but none of the evils of the community were settled. The mobs in Atlanta unsettled and aggravated conditions, besides damag- ing the entire south in the eyes of the outside world
 If there is one thing all good men should do in the cotton states 1t is this-strive to keep down racial hatred, and strive above all else to secure re. spect for the law and it's courts and processes. The madness of mobs should never supplant the orderly methods of justice. When the Mont gomery city council declared against the production in its city of "The Clansman," it simply declared that race strife Is not desirable in the south, and that is the bottom truth of the situation.

American Citizenshin.

The rush which has been made by aliens to secure certificates of citizen. ship is a proof of the high value which foreigners set upon the rights and lib critics which man enjoys in the United States. Not many native-born Ameri- cans know what it means to renounce allegiance to the land of ones birth and ancestry. According to the oath which the naturalized citizen takes, he is obliged, if the occasion arises, to bear arms against his native land and, perhaps, his kinsmen.
 To the Irishman that oath presents no difficulties since his love for Amer ica has ever been greater than his love for the English crown but 1t is differ ent with the German or Englishman or Frenchman, and the renunciation means an admission that the new country is dearer to him than the one he left.
 Everyone is familiar with the lines of Sir Walter Scott:
 ''Breathes there a man with soul so dead Who never to himself had said
 '' This is my own, my native land"
 The returning naturalized American citizen may say, This is indeed my native land, but it is no longer my own land. Her progress, her greatness or her glory reflect no honor on me. I have foresworn it forever, and, more than that, have sworn to destroy 1t If it ever comes in conflict with the land of my adoption" When a man makes that oath and means to abide by it, the hand of friendship should be offered him and his residence made welcome.

Keen to the Right.

Birmingham is metropolitan in all out one respect" said a traveller last night. Her people waste q great deal of en- ergy In lodging each other on the streets One may stand on any corner and see an amusing comedy free of charge.
 There Is no left or right side of the walk. Every man takes a zig-zag course, and must watch closely for approaching persons in order that he may sheer off on the 'starboard tack. When the cor ners are turned there is nearly always a collision.
 "Then there Is also a habit of the loafers and people waiting for cars to block the passengers to such an extent that it takes all of the policemen's time to keep them open. The entrances to the office buildings have separate doors for entrance and exit yet these places are always scenes of confusion and disorder.
 How easily all this trouble could be prevented by following the simple rule to keep to the right"
The Birmingham age-herald., 1906-09-27
Richard il. Clarke.

One of the most gifted sons of Ala bama was taken from earthly scenes when Richard H. Clarke died. He was born in Marengo county, and his en- tire life was spent in this state. He was a lieuteneI4 in the First battalion of Alabama artillery, and he served .n it in the civil war. He was gradu- ated from the University of Alabama just as the war came on, and after the war was ended he began the practice of law in his native county. He was elected to the Fifty-frst Congress, and he served in the national legislature six years, securing to his state many valuable appropriations and winning for himself high reputation. He re- ceiyed in the recent race for alternate senators a handsome vote.
 In Mobile he readily secured a place in the first rank among lawyers and among the leaders of public sentiment The loss to the state is great, and MT Clarkes record and works will be car ried in Alabamas political history among those who have striven early and late for her good.

GOOD ARGUMENT.

From the Washington Post.
 The old darky was whipping the mule unmercifully. There was something in the mules attitude that plainly showed he was thoroughly willing to play the hit me-all-you-want game to a standstill. He wouldn't budge. The negro driver plead ed in vain for Messenger Boy to get busy and move on, but Messenger Boy" wasn't In busy humor, and simply wagged his ears complacently.
 Look a-here you mule," charged the darky. "Ah'm a-gettin' tired ob all yer foolin'. Amt yer got no sense at all? Here yer am a-standin while dere's corn an hay a-waitin' fer yer at home. Yer am de craziest mule!'
 MT. Heber J. May happened along at this time and suggested that the negro use persuasive powers other than the whip. The dusky one took kindly to his sug- gestion and then "cussed" the stubborn animal in true plantation fashion
 MT. May again proposed that language of less forcible character be used, in view of the fact that women were within two blocks of the scene.
 Uncle" said the gentleman in mock seriousness. don't you know you'll never get to heaven if you use such language ?'
 True boss agreed the darky, but Ah'n neber git ter Georgetown eff An don't"

Weddina Presents.

"It was Patrick Henry who said, Give me liberty or give me death,' but I say give me anything but the task of buying a wedding present." said a worried look Ing man as he leaned against a trash box.
 'I know young lady who Is engaged to be married soon and although no an- nouncement has been made yet, the mat ter Is all settled and l have been taken into the secret. I will have to send her a wedding present, but what to send pug zles me beyond solution. Clocks, lamps, have had my attention, but feel sure she will receive several such presents.
 "The purpose of the wedding present, as I understand it, is to assist the young couple at the start of their career, but what earthly good is some of the presents l have seen people send surpasses my comprehension.
 'It is no disgrace for young people to admit that they have more love than lucre, that their purses are as light as their hearts. and that a little ready money will float the frail craft In which they have embarked far better than manicure sets or cut glass finger bowls. If thought my young friend would see matters in that light I would send her a check right now for S25 out of a desire to benefit her and to rid myself of this horrible uncertainty

AFTER-THEATRE SUPPER.
m the Philadelphia Record

From the Philadelphia Record
 The after-theatre supper strikes differ. ent people In different ways according to the point of view. To the person who partakes of it 1t is rather small, if costly, repast for himself and few friends. but there are other aspects of 1t. ''The first week of the theatre openings always brings a rush for after-theatre suppers," said the proprietor of a large and fashionable restaurant in this city. Such suppers become more and more fashionable every year and business in them is good all through the winter. but for next week. at least, we will do twice as much as a month or so later. I expect to provide for 400 guests at after-theatre suppers every night the next week Such business Is lightest during the Christmas holidays. It recovers again by the middle of January, but the period before Christ mas, taken as a whole, Is better than that which comes after. The only reason why lobster is so much more in demand for such occasions than any other one thing is because it is always talked of and written about as being the proper thing. There are really plenty of other things just as suitable and somewhat cheaper"
The Birmingham age-herald., 1906-09-27
Birmingham Good.

q have never seen town of Birming hams size so nearly free of gambling, ' said a man about town yesterday after noon. Time was when if I cared to in- dulge in game of chance I could easily be accommodated; in fact. I could find my own way. unguided, to more thRn a dozen places Now, however, If I cared to find a game in which to while Away an idle hour, I must confess that I would not know where to look for 1t. Within the last twelve months Birmingham has shown marvellous energy in the restric- ton of gambling houses. I have never seen the like.
 "Furthermore, there are few towns of Birminghams size which are morally bet ter; that Is, which are closed tighter. The police. with Mayor Ward and Chef Wier behind them, have prevented the violation of the Sunday law. The action of the police in beginning a campaign against indecent pictures and literature is another excellent move. Those in au- thority here deserve great credit

Cuha and America.

The Teller resolution pledging the United States at the close of the war with Spain to waive all rights as vic tor is under discussion again. Some are inclined to excuse it on the ground of hysteria, but it is indeed doubtful whether its handspring was hysteria or beet sugar. At that time Colorado thought it could supply the country witt sus5r, snd the chances are that it wanted no free cane sugar from Cuba.
 But whatever may have been the power behind the Teller resolution the wisdom of it is now generally ques- toned. All see now that an independ ent Cuba is impracticable, and the cry of Cuba for the Cubans is a declara- lion that negroes, mulattoes, adven- turers, tramps and outcasts shall be given control of the island, regardless of what the merchants and planters desire. Says the Chicago Tribune: "Cuba for Cubans means no more un- der existing conditions than South Carolina for the South Carolinians, or Mississippi for the Mississippians, or Alabama for the Alabamlans. Theo- retically, the formula is good. but we would not turn over South Carolina, or Mississippi, or Alabama, to the dom- ination of the negro race, and we can not afford to let Cuba go in that way. Moreover, we will not do 1t. We. do not believe in Cuba for Cuban negroes and half-breeds, but we do believe in Cuba for Spanish Cubans and Ameri. can white men,"
 Secretary Taft finds that President Palma and the moderates will not ac- cept terms at the hands of the liberals.

cHARlvARI IS ABOLISHED.
Couples In Sabetha, kans., Can Here-
 after Marry In Peace.
.,,o 1,-,.,,,.a Daa.a

From the Wichita Beacon.
 There Is a very rigid charivari ordinance in effect In Sabetha. Under the provisions of this ordinance any one caught out after p. m. carrying dishpan, gun. revolver or any other instrument of torture during a period of seven days after there has been marriage in or near Sabetha; and any patty or parties being seen singly or doubly, or in gangs, in any number what soever, then and there being, having then and there in their hands any of the said dishpans, guns. revolvers or any instru- ment of torture whatsoever, shall be deemed guilty of conspiracy to commit a charivari, and shall be fined in the sum of not less than s5 nor more than $500. It will be a wise political party that first adopts an anti-charivari plank in its plat form.
