tactics of The News as it squirms uns der the mention of the Avondale mfllzs lis latest expression along that line ia a statement that 1t has been informedl that Mir. Conner has served legal no- tice on a number of newspapers that child labor law is being violated at Avondafe or that sanitary conditions are bad or that the employees are being improperly treated This Is something of a departure Tn Alabama politics. Oe
 course, we recognize the fact that 9 mans private character should not be assailed without facts to sustainl charges, but it Is a new thing for a candidate for governor to call in the libel law in order to stop q discus- sion of his business career. If these charges were made--as the charges against CunninEham have been made
 without single fact or particle ! of evidence being brought forward to sustain them, there might be some ex- when reputable man, such as pr. Mc-l
 Kelway must surely be granted to besl makes the charges in writing, thera can certainly be no crime or disregard for character on the part Of news-i paper which publishes them: It regard evfnced for character and for prt vates business dealings by The News when an effort is made to measure some t of the environment" which has been and this doubtless will continue to op-
 crate on the mind of It's candidate. pr. Cunningham's former connection with corporation was lugged forward on alL occasions and made the basis of alp sorts of charges against him. MT. Co., mer's present connection with a corr poration must not be touched upon ae all under penalty of the libel law.

 The idea of curing criminals or pre- venting crime by surgery is not alto gether new, but lately it has received a fresh impetus. Removing or raising a portion of the skull which was exert ing undue pressure on some portion of the brain has frequently been done with good results. but in Philadelphia there is Society to Protect Children from Cruelty" and a number of emi- nent physicians and surgeons are em- ployed. The theory Is that if certain portions of the brain have not room for proper development the child will grow up possessing criminal tendencies and may eventually commit crime. By a proper surgical operation 1t is claim ed that this fault may be corrected in the child. It is a nice theory and If It works well in practice 1t will tend to discourage the solomonic idea that only the liberal use of the rod can make children good. So many new dls- coveries and inventions are made these days that one never knows what to expect next.

rHE REeTsrRATIoN or vorEns.

Tn calling the attention of voters who have never registered to the impor- tance and necessity of registering and urging them to meet the registrars when the latter visit the several pre- cincts in an article In Thursdays issue. we used this language:
 "The only opportunity voters will have to register will be when the board visits their precincts pursuant to this requirement" that is, the requirement that the registrars visit the several precincts.
 A voter may be registered either at the county site, or the precinct In which he resides. We should have said that the voters will have no other op- portunity to register except when tao board visits their precincts or is sitting at the county site. Every voter who Is entitled to registration. should regis tor at the first opportunity unless he is already registered.

Fanning Your Girl in Church.

Tanning Your GirI in Church. How. the warm precipitation doth roll
 down your face, When you're flaming your girl in How your eye wanders sleepishly all when you're flaming your girl in Backward and forward your hand nev- And you look and you fan and your And you wonder and wonder if really When you're flaming your girl in

 She sits self-composed in her peek-a- When you're flaming your girl in And around it how easily your arms
 could be placed When you're flaming your girl in
 church.
 She outsings the choir. while you just Perspire and Edfnire and admire and And you know that your heart Is for when you're flaming Your girl in
 church.
 The long sermon tires you, your new When you're flaming your girl in But there's nothing so sweet as the
 perfume she's got ., :. Oh. here's to the days of your puppy When you went with" the sweetest of
 sweet village misses. while you sat through the sermon on
 thoughts of sweet kisses, When flaming your girl In church!

fered such splendid opportunities for pastors to SOW the seeds of good gov ernment in the minds of the people being asked ibv thousands of good men. Ne need for the preacher to call names or take sides publicly But he can speak of the God side of the ballot. Righteousness exalteth q nation. but sin is a reproach to any people, The ungodly iiquor power is going to make itself felt. They are saying nothing, but they are working like beavers. The saloon men are for those who are least likely to hurt their. business. Men who have record agafnst liquor in any way they are not for. They are the very men Christians ought to support Will they do it?"
 Lynching Is Debnsing.
 The press of the South should take concerted action. not only in denounc- ing lynching, but in upholding the au- thorities in enforcing the law by the use of troops or otherwise and by build- ing up a healthy sentiment to the end that when lynching occurs cer- tainty may be felt that the slynehers will be punished.

Tuscaloosa Times Gazette.
 Bruce Kennedy. the City Editor of The Montgomery Advertiser, in a re- cent article quotes some of Gadsden's s enthusiastic citizens as claiming fourth place for their city in postoffice re- ceipts.
 We do not wish to cast a damper on their enthusiasm. but facts are facts, and the latest edition of the United States postal guide puts Gadsden in the eighth place.
 The Alabama cities ranking in the following order are: Birmingham, Mobile, Montgomery. Selma, Anniston, Huntsville. Tuscaloosa. Gadsden.
 It will be noted that Tuscaloosa still brooches the Coosa Valley city.
 We do not like to rub it In but as the Gadsden people claim a yearly mercantile business of ss.000.000 for their business houses we must again remind them that Tuscaloosa's annual business Is s3.S1S.0oo.
 We note in a Gadsden paper that the total postal receipts at the Gads- den postoffiee during July were $i,- 362.T5; the receipts for last month at the Tuscaloosa postofflce amounted to SI443.6f.
 We will award Gadsden a place at the very top of the list, however, if the list Is made up according to enter prise and public spirit

THE ALABAMA LAW.

The Montgomery Advertiser says the negroes are not disfranchised in Ala bama How's tnat?--Columbus Enquir- CT.
 If our Columbus neighbor will read the constitution of the State of Ala bama 1t will find since January 1st, 1903, the same qualifications for ali persons, applying for registration as voters. If the negroes can come up to them, then they can register-other- wise not. The same rule governs as to whites.--Montgomery Advertiser.
 Do the restrictions have special ref erence to negroes. Do they contain the grandfather clause" or something similar? If so when does the grand father or other clause expire by limf- tation or otherwise? Are the restric- tions based upon education.-Coiunbus Enquirer.
 Since January 1st. 1903, there are no restrictions as to qualifying for sufr- rage that do not apply to blacks and whites alike. The grandfather clause under which Confederate sold iers and their descendants registered expired on the 1st of January. 1903. and has not been in operation one moment since that time. Restrictions are as to character, as well as education. The latter is not prerequisite if other re- quired qualifications can be compiled with.

AN EMTERPRIsE RANCHER.

D.'A. Minett formerly resident of this place but now the chief rancher of the Enterprise country, arrived here Thursday evening for a brief visit with friends. The most not ccable thing about Mr Mufett just now is his countenance which is mostly hair. Enterprise has not yet attained a pop ulation sufficiently large to support a first class barber and consequently he has been obliged to depend solely upon the services of a Taqui in his employ. whose experience in tousorial matters
 $ rather limited. but who, at the same time has original ideas and a peculiar style of h's own. The result is that Mir. Millett now wears the very latest thing iu whiskers, "Yaqui Van Dyke" which gives him distinguish ed appearance and bids fair to become popular style in these parts.
