Greenbacks for Brass In
Burial Ceremony.

Unconverted Chinese who have
lived in America long enough to be
touched by the undermining influence
of the new west, have given peculiar
twist to their already peculiar burial
service. 1t was according to this mod
ernized rite, reports the Philadelphia
Record, that many crisp United States
dollar bills were buried, together with
food, In the coffin Of Chin Ying, whose
funeral took place on a recent Sunday
In this city. The original Chinese
ceremony callss for much burning of
incense In the room where the body
lies In state and at the burial that
food and cash" be Inferred with the
corpse. The cash." or Chinese money
Is to pay the guide who shows the de-
parted soul across the Confucian Styx,
and the food prevents him from faint
Ing along the way from hunger. But
the Americana Chinese is no longer
particular that Chinese money accom-
panies the spirit. He reasons that
American dollars are as good, and
certainly more easily obtained here
and that the wanderer can surely md
. bank Of exchange in the land of
spirits where he can convert the
sound money of one Of the most pros
porous nations on earth into any cur
rency the other world requires.

The Democratic Candidate

For many years past Alabama de- mocracy has been model of unity, and in no county in the state has the Iarty been more loyal or cohesive than lere in Jefferson. Democrats of this county have been quick to appreciate the value of party alignment, and the necessity for such alignment is as great today as ever.
 A test of this party loyalty is now about to be made. Judge J. P. Stiles is the democratic partys nominee for sheriff He was duly declared the nominee by the Jefferson county dem- ocratic executive committee after con test proceedings conducted according tc the primary election law.
 Col F. L. Higdon. who ran the race for sheriff with Judge Stiles, and who had been declared the nominee by majority of three votes on the face of the returns, but who withdrew from the contest before it was under way, is the nominee of mass meeting of partisans styling themselves the demo cratic and conservative party" Colonel Higdon's supporters harp on what they call unfair treatment at the hands of the Jefferson county democratic eX- ecgtiye committee, but all thoughtful people who followed the proceedings, Irrespective of party, must see that there was no unfair treatment; that if the committee went out of it's way to favor either candidate it was on the side of Higdon, the contestee.
 Stiles being the democratic candi- date for sheriff, should receive the full democratic vote of the county. There should be no question of his election.

Presentations Also.

The pure food law goes into effect on January 1, and it will be in effect a revolution in more places than one. In striking at patent medicines the labelling clause was made broad and comprehensive. It is so broad and comprehensive that it affects prescrip- tions as much as it does patent medi- cines against which it was specially drawn. An effort was made to exempt prescriptions from the scope of the law, but the effort was not successful. The law is drastic, and its terms are to be enforced to the letter.
 Any prescription that contains alco- hol, opium, morphine, cocaine, heroin, cannabis indica, chloroform chloral hydrate, acetahilde and encaine must bear on the label statement of the fact. The percentage and quality of the content must be stated.
 But there is this relief in the case. The pure food law does not and can not apply to anything that is not of an interstate nature. Prescriptions put up in a state to be consumed within that same state are not affected by the new law. It Is the prescription or patent medicine that is sent from one state to another that will feel the pressure and the stringent provisions of the pure food law. In many localities it will be seriously felt, but the drug stores that do not send prescriptions out of a state will not know the differ ence. Cities on state lines, like New York and Philadelphia and Columbus, Ga, and Chattanooga and Bristol and Memphis and St. Louis, will feel the new law. and they may be compelled in self.defense to put pure food labels on all the prescriptions they send out

How the cost of a capitol building could be increased to $13000,000 when the only specific and definite appro- priation for it voted by the legislature was s4,0O0,000, is being told, and the story puts not only the Penrose gang in a bad light but it effectually ban ishes the famous anti-cartoon Penny packer from public favor forever. His term expires in January, and he will lapse at once into obscurity to stay there.
 The legislature seems to have au- thorized payments flor furnishing and equipping the new capitol' from moneys in the treasury mot otherwise appropriated" Under this scheme of the ring, begun in 1904 and operating without time limit, all that became needful was to find moneys .'not other wise appropriated, and to keep what was going on a profound secret.

Esteemed Southern Girl.

Birmn gham sec etv is much interested in Miss Charlotte Walker, who plays the principal femp.ln rol,, that of Constance Pinckney, in Louis Evan Shipman's war time play, 'On Parole, Nhich Edward A.

 Miss Walker says that her father was named for MNj Robert Anderson, U. s.

able doubt 5,000,000 bales this year. The mills elsewhere have taken in the last six years 6,SS9,0OO bales a year. This has been their average taking. In 1904-05 they took S.733,000 bales. They will buy not less than 7000.000 bales this year. Here, then, is a de mand for 12,000,000 bales. la the last cotton year 42 per cent of the crop was spun at home and 5S per cent abroad. These percentages will hold good this year, and we may safely set 1t down as a fact that the home mills will want 5O00.000 and foreign mills 7,000,O00 bales-total 12,000,O0O bales.
 This estima; does not take Into consideration the increase in mills both in this country and abroad. Eng land has built seyenty.elght cotton mills this year, and forty-six of them containing 3,701 ,000 spindles are de- signed to spin yarn from American cotton. A million of spindles has been installed in this country this year. It is therefore plain that a crop exceed ing 12,00G,O00 bales is needed, and that it will bring 10 cents pound even if 1t should prove to be crop aggregat- ing 12,500,0 ,000 bales.

 'I am going to try what can be done with girls. They can attend to the calls and collect messages, and by that means the delivery will be confined to the boys alone. This action of m'ne is not the re- suit of any trouble with the boys. It is purely an attempt to solve the problem which confronts me every day in the of- flee.
 "The girls will be employed only in the daytime, and n the business parts of the city. If necessary, ! will employ men to work at nisnt and delv yer messages in the outskirts of the city. Telegraph messages must be deliver ed promptly, that's why people send telegrams instead of a letter, and it is my duty 10 deliver them as promptly as possible

Politics and nunqeonS.

In our latest political dependency, Cuba we have been holding In don ions vile and dark and dank a thous- and political prisoners, more or less, some of whom have not breathed the air of freedom in a years time. But Provisional Governor Taft is about to depart from the island, and he con cluded to celebrate, so to speak rather, to emphasize and make his toric-his departure by issuing an amnesty proclamation running to all persons charged with political offenses. Rarely are political opponents thrown into prison here as such. Some other charge is brought against them when a be- or sub-boss in this country de- sires to imprison hi, opponents. Not so in Cuba or other Latin American countries. In all those countries the prison is necessarily party of all politics, and the ''ins" rarely fail to jug the "outs." This clarifies and simplities the situation, and all know what ij coming. President Palma was no exception to the rule. His prisons were full to repletion. He shut up every political opponent he had req son to dislike or to fear, and it Is these people that Uncle Sam took over when military occupation of Cuba became fact.
 No one seems to know why amnesty was delayed a moment-why the doors of the prisons filled with political of lenders were not thrown open as soon as Uncle Sam took charge of the island They were not, however, and the excellent Mir. Taft seems to have reserved the piece of business as his personal fireworks to be fired off just before his departure from the island.
 Let us be glad that we have at last no prisons filled with political oppo- nents-that we have departed from the Russian basis and are once more on American rock-bottom where men can be voted down, but cannot be put under lock and key in donjon keeps.
