GOING roo FAR.


 Discussing the pure food law of Con- gress The Kansas City Journal de- ciares that few poor people now living ''have ever tasted real coffee. molasses. sugar or even flour. Nest of the cheaper grades of coffee never saw a coffee bush. and it Is notorious fact that the much-vaunted maple syrup is mostly made of chemicals, while the New Orleans molasses Is at least half glucose, mixed in by the thrifty whole sale dealers as soon as 1t comes from the plantations. The genuine article of molasses. as 1t Is made on the Louisiana sugar plantation. has a dis tinctive name in the South. and can only be had as a favor or present from some planter friend. Its taste and flavor are as far superior to the aduI- terated stuff that figures in commerce as pure New Orleans molasses as young loves first kiss is to a mother in-law's acidulous salute. And So 1t goes with nearly all the food and drink now on the market"
 DGyUnu d QUuDI tHGTc lH duul- teration in the food and drink we con- sume. but we hardly think it as bad as The Journal makes it appear. We cannot speak for Kansas City, of course, and 1t may be that conditions are as our contemporary describes them. but 1t Is not so here. It Is pos sihle for even poor people in Mont gomery to get genuine coffee. sugar. syrup. flour and some other articles of food and drink. tn pinch one might find a drink of pure whiskey, but we are not betting on that.
 The adulterations of food and drink and consequent trifling with human life are fearful ana criminal While not all of them are hurtful or danger ous, 1t is no less a fact that they are dishonest, for the buyer pays the price of a genuine article and gets a substitute which may or may not be safe. All the genuine maple syrup and sugar made In any one year would not supply one-tentt of the demand, and because there is a large demand for it, there will be substitutes. some of which may be merely in the nature of impositions, while others are actual menaees to the users. And so 1t may be of various other articles that we eat and drink. Much of our supply is not what 1t purports to be. but for all that 1t Is still possible to get some thing to eat and drink that is really as represented.

ANoTuEn 0nANx

Some recent references and sugses- tions carry the mind back some four score years to the almost forgotten theory put forth by John Gloves symmes about the interior of our globe. symmes was at one time an ensign in the United States Army and fought in the War of 1872. He resigned soon after the war closed and spent the re- mainder of his life studying and lec- turing on scientific subjects. dying in 1929, before he was fifty years old.
 symmes's greatest fame, or notority, resulted from his book setting forth his somewhat fantastic theory of a hole through the center of the earth where the Poles are supposed to be. and ''svmmes's Hole" has been something of by-word since the publication of his book. He held. and his work was designed to show, that the earth Is < hollow globe. and that through It's en- tire length from north to south ex- tends vast circular opening. We do not now call to mind all the details of his theory. but that 1t the nature of it.
 We have lately been reminded of Svmmes and his theories by the an- neuncement that one Professor Will fam Reed has written a book on "The Phantom of the Poles." in which he maintains that there is no North Pole, but in its place is a holc reaching to the hollow center of the earth. We have not seen his book and do not know if he claims that the hole goes all the way through and comes out at the South Pole, or the place where 1t ought to be. but in one respect he goes further than his predecessor does. for he attempts to show that tue interior of the earth is inhabited.
 For various reasons this Reed theory is disquieting. The idea that there Is c North Pole has been universally &C., cepted for so many generations, and 50 many efforts have been made to illusion dispelled. We have become so accustomed to the belief that the earth must have something to revolve an that we hesitate to believe that there is vacancy where the Pole is supposed to be. Then, too, it would be awfully disappointing to Walter Wellman if. instead of lighting on solid ground and finding a Pole wait ing for him, he should fall into a vast hole and have no idea where he is go- ing or how he will get back. It would be a shock to him. no doubt
 And then we are not pleased with that suggestion about intarmundane people if that is the title for them. We dislike to believe that there are human beings that we can't reach or communicate with. It is bad enough to be told that Mars is inhabited. but 1t is worse to be informed that some where on or in the earth there are people that we have no means of be- coming acquainted with. or even send ing messages to. If such people ex- ist, and way should be found Of read lily reaching the hole. perhaps human ingenuity might find a way to get down to those inside people, hut the prospect is remote. On the whole, we prefer not to believe either Symmes or Reed.

It Is given out by a physician that Stanford White had about reached the end of his life, even without the sud den ending that came to him The life of continued and excessive disipation he had been leading had so seriously affected his liver, kidneys and lungs that he could only have lived a year or two, according to the opinion of the doctor. If that is true, his remain ing days would have been few and full of trouble. but that does not miti- gate Thaw's crime, or render any less dark the part played by the woman in the affair.

A Correction.

Charlotte (N. @ Observer.
 In regard to a recent editorial In The Observer on the type of canal to be built across Panama. The Mont gomery, Ala, Advertiser says that It must boldly dissent from the senti- ment plainly expressed by The Ob- server It gives us to understand The Advertiser goes on to say, that the people and the country only want a canal in the shortest possible time, and the plain, inference is that tne type or quality Is matter of no importance It Is added that this Is bad doctrine" and In thls conclus- ion we agree with our Montgomery contemporary. It's inference Is doubtless accurately drawn from our language, but that is not what we ine tended to convey. We meant to say that the public was growing. weary of delay and wanted canal in the this canal should be Such as to am swer all requirements when complet- ed and so constructed as to be en- larged if need be, just as other ca- nals have been.

 Andalusia, Ala. June 80, 1906. Editor The Advertisers: In a special from Andalusia on June the 2Sth your correspondent says A county official declared to day that every county officer except one was for Cunningham. and this he pointed out showed which way the wind was blowing in CoyinRton. l challenge the truth of this statement and on receipt of The Advertiser to day went in person 10 the Probate Judge, Cireuit Clerk.
