SUNDAY, JULY 21, 1907.

William Randolph Hearst, who has been trying to get the seat adjudged to MT Mcclellan as Mayor of New York, was handed a lemon by the Ap- pellate Division of the Supreme Court. Failing in all his other efforts to dis place Mayor Mcclellan he procured through the assistance or Governor Hughes, the enactment of a law pro- viding for a recount of the vote of the city. The court has just rendered 2 decision declaring the law unconstitu- tional. Now the case will go to the full Court of Appeals and from there may probably be carried to the Su- preme Court of the United States. So 1t appears that Willie may continue to pose as a martyr and will probably have opportunity to prolong the role till long after McClellan's term has expired Poor Willie is having a hard time of it. It reminds us of the old mother whose son came whimpering to her after having received his usual thrashing from his dad Well. Will lie" said she in a sympathetic tone "they does give you the devil!"

Calhoun and Modification.

Charleston, s. C. July IS. 1907 Editor Montgomery Advertiser:
 I note in the afternoon paper here 3 clipping from your columns referring to the proposed statue of Calhoun.
 It seems to me 1t is possible to give too much dignity to the criticisms and abuse so common in many quarters, whenever Calhoun's name is under con Sideration.
 The more appropriate attitude and disposition, 1t seems to me, towards ut- terances of this nature, is to rejoice that Calhoun so uniformly draws the fire of prejudice and unworthy senti- ment. Truth seems to be a tOuchstone which instantly develops and makes manifest unkind and evil feeling. and all the black brood of prejudice.
 One other point; You say it Is easy to admit that Calhoun's plan of nulli- flying was wholly untenable." It seems to me that Calhoun without null lification Is somewhat like Hamlet with the Prince of Denmark omitted For my part. I think if it be admitted that argument should be ruled by reason, that it may be proved to demonstration that nullification Is the rtghtful con servative principle of the American Union, as first constituted. It seems plain to me that the rejection of Null lification. now so common, IS to De eX- plained by the fact that 1t Is not un- derstood, and that opportunity at pres ent is denied for fair argument or the subject.
 am inclined to think in free fo- rum with fair play nullifcation would be triumphantlv vindicated
 However that may be. there can be little argument whether Calhoun was identified with nullification. If nullihcation was a very bad thing it would seem questionable wisdom to place Calhoun statues In prominent po' sitions where they will be apt to in I tect with this taint the public mind. Very respectfully. | Gustavus M. Finckney.

FOR THE HONOR or ALABAMA.

The passage of Senate bill No. ls7. last February. appropriating s3.z6o to memorial work in Ohio. was . distinct credit to that body and an honor to the State. That the Governor is in sympathy with this measure is in e line with his ap- proval of all similar causes. If economy must be encouraged in mat ters relative to such objects, let it not extend to one so pathetic in its nature.-so sacred to us alias the memory of our martyred dead in northern prison yards That some 500 of the flower of Alabama are buried in Camp Chase and on Johnson's Is- lanl Is well known. Their ashes is to us a deathless trust. and let 1t not be said that Alabama forgets her own. The sum prayed for by the Robert Patton Chapter of Cincinnati. ohio. Is insignificant for 90 rich a state as ours. and 1t is hoped that the bill will pass the House with as much en- thusiasm as 1t did the Senate. Ten nessee has appropriated most gener- ously to this cause. Georgia intends doing so during its present session and Virginia, has signified her desire to do her duty in the same line. Let it not be said that Alabama prov ed forgetful of the memory of her gallant dead. The advisory board of the chapter thus asking for aid. in work it has carried on so far as to buy and pay for the cemetery on Johnson's Island. is composed of distinguished men of the south--General Basil w. Duke. of Kentucky; General w A. Wright. Colonel R. E. Park aAd w. H. Harrison. of Georgia; Generaf T. H. Van Zandt. Texas; Captain J. M. Nor ton, Tennessee; Colonel Joseph Bryc-.. and Dr. J.

Reserve
 Force" that's the word for :'Grape-Nuts \ FOOD .

T want to tell you about Grape Nuts food, and my experience with it.
 T had for year or two. felt gen. eral debility creeping on me, and also suffered from fatulency, piles. etc, |, which I began to think was due to advancing age, now being 65 years old. when. in the providence of God, as l believe, GrapeNuts was brought to my notice. and tried as an experiment.
 Tn a week I found d decided im- provement in myself. and have kept improving ever since. and am now be- Ing congratulated on the great change in my appearance by all ucQuaintances. Not only so. but l feel l have reserve force so that I do not feel wearied at night although 1 have worked contin- uously from 7:30 a. m. until g p. m. recommend Grape Nuts to my friends and acouaintances. and all of my family use the food. and it Is on the table at every meal whatever else is omitted. l write this being desirous of giving vent to the grateful feeling
 I entertain for the benefits received from the use of this incomparable food.
 The particular element which pro duces the feeling of strength is the delicate particles of Phosphate of Pot ash, not the phosphate of the drug store, but that which Is prepared by | Nature and furnished in the nelo | grains. This delicate element. not ob- | served by the taste. is used by Nature
 in connection with the albumen Of l food. to rebuild the gray matter in the | nerve centres throughout the body and | in the brain and solar plexus. so thai
 one thus nourished and rebuilt is very
 sure to feel the effects of this rebuild
 ing within a week or ten days. and thi | feeling grows and becomes fixed as on' | becomes a steady, every day user O Grape Nuts "There's a Reason" Read

ABOUT PALIMSESTS.

If the question should be asked, What Is a palimsest?" probably many readers would promptly pass but those who know what 1t is will not lose much time while we state briefly the origin and meaning of the word It is from the Greek and literally means rubbed the second time" The an cients it should be borne in mind. were not as liberally supplied with writing materials as we are They princtply made use of parchment and papyrus, and the supply of these was limited So.. when writing was to be done if the writer had no clean material to write on he would often take an old record of some kind. If the original writing had not already faded he would scrape 1t of as well as possible and put his new record over it. Mod has succeeded in restoring the first writing on many of these old sheets so that the original could be decipher- ed. and in this way many of the most valuable records of ancient times have been preserved.
 Such. in brief. are palimsests. and we have been led to speak of the sub ject by reading that an eminent Dan ish Professor. while making researches in an old convent in Constantinople has brought to light and deciphered palimsests containing hitherto un- known writings of the great Greek

The Marion County Democrat says:

If the reports tha- eome from Tus- caloosa of the management of the in sane hospital are half true there should be a change in the control Of that institution at once.
 It is best to wait and see the result of the investigation. There are two sides to every question and only one of this matter has been presented. The management of the Insane Hospital has reflected great credit on the State and we feel sure that every facility so far as ascertaining the truth or falsi- ty of recent charges will be afforded, Until the report is made we hope pa pers and public will suspend judg ment.

A LIFE's LESSON.

That is strange news coming from Europe to the effect that "Ouida." tho once famous and popular fiction writ CT. is now living in abject poverty. if not in actual want. It has been but few years at most since she was one of the most prolific novelists in two worlds. Her works were not of a character to live like those of Scott, Cooper and others of like genius, but they were popular with the young. and. what is important, they were profi- table. Few now think of buying and reading her books but they had a wide popularity in their day. At one time she was accounted a very wealthy person. She lived in almost regal splendor and luxury and enjoyed every- thing that money could provide. Now she is in the clutches of cruel poverty, if we are to believe the reports.
 Ouida Is not yet an old woman. She lacks some three years of having reached the Psalmist's limit of human life, having been born in 1s4o. Many famous scholars and writers have done their best work at a more ad- vanced age than hers. Yet we are told that she is now "dulleared. dim sighted. slow of speech and thought" and that she cares for nothing but her dogs, and is represented as stolidly awaiting the end without either care or hope.
 What a contrast her life and condi- tion affords. and what a lesson they teach. But yesterday, as we might say. the popular authoress, petted well comed and feted. enjoying the best that life could afford. living in the luxury and enjoyment of the present and taking no thought of the morrow. today enduring the bangs of grinding, pinching poverty. forgotten and un- cared for by those who once almost l idolized her. she presents a graphic picture of the changes and vicissi- tudes of human life; not withc4t paral- Tel. but none the less to be pitied. Madame de la Rance, to give her her proper title. furnishes one more example of unthoughtednes and i'm providence that so often marks the career of those who are so fortunate as to ride on the topmost wave of popularity and prosperity. Even a score of years ago she would have laughed if any one had told her that her latter days would be spent in want and misery. Instead of following the advice of Longfellow to trust no fu- ture. however pleasant" her motto seems to have been. Let us live while we may. and let the future take care of itself" Does not her life furnish a good lesson for those who will heed it?

 priatiOn.

Tint Fifty Thousand Dollar Appro-
 priatiOn.
 Editor Advertiser.
 The interview of the Attorney Gen eral with reference to the above sup ject sheds an entirely new light on the matter In a few words he tells us that the general act provides for spe- present act 'is to provide for court costs and other expenses of this litiga- tion in the fight for the peoples rights against over charges in freight and passenger rates" In this statement he is confirmed by Governor Conner. If this is correct then this bill Is not only unnecessary t"t absurd It pre- supposes in the first place that the State will lose for only in that event can the State be mulcted for costs. for if the State wins then everyone knows that the railroads will have to pay the cost. and the same statute which enacts to by the Attorney General also enacts. and places. not only the costs of the suit but enormously heavy penalties upon the railroads in event they fail in this contest. Then If the attorreY'e fees and costs are already provided for. why give the Governor special fund of fifty thousand dollars to expend at his will in this matter. It seems to tho average citizen that there is a "nigger in the wood pile" and the public wants more light on the subject. If the State wins, no appropriation is needed, If the State loses the laws already enacted law then Is unnecessary in either event Why place a heavy and useless burden on the people.

TARIFF MUST WAIT.
No Attempt ut Revision Until After
 1908 Election.

Oyster Bay Dispatch.
 President Roosevelt. Senator Hopkins of Illinois. and H F. Miles, represent ing the Wisconsin Tariff Revision League discussed the subject or tarin revision at the luncheon at Sagamore Hill today. Senator Hopkins, on leav- ing Oyster Bay. said the conclusion reached was that no tarff revision should be undertaken until after the next presidential election.
 Tt would be suicidal to the Republi- can party" the Senator added, ito un- dertak- revision of the tariff during g the next Congress. After the presi- dental election l believe it will be the duty of the Republican party to revise the tariff, and that it will be done.
 of course. if President Roosevelt were a candidate there would be not the slightest opposition in the conven- tion to his nomination But l am thor oughlY convinced that MT. Roosevelt will not consider the nomination: that he is entirely sincere in declaring him self not to be a candidate under any circumstances.
 Speaker Cannon will have the entire Illinois delegation solidlY behind him. and I thoroughly believe that if nomi- mated he would make the best race oi any man the Republican party >couie put forward"
