Alabama wants an intrin- sic value to her monument. which can be given only by a sculptor whose name is significant in art and history. We want to speak. or write, or hear or read of our monument with that same confidence with which is, mentioned Saint Gauden's "Farragut," Mac Mon- nie's Nathan Hale" Wards Horace CreeIy,' or Rauch's Frederic the Great and Rauch's Queen Louise" and Frederic wm.

And when we hear of these. we know the greatest or the kind have been spoken of.
 We cannot hope to have our rnonu- ment made. by any of these masters, but more fortunate are we that within our own Southland lives the man who can make a memorial of Pettus ana Morgan that will in every way show the best ideals of sculpturai art and who can combine with his artistic achievement the purest expression of Southern sentiment. Need we call the name of Valentine, the author of the imatchless recumbent statue Of Lee May Aiabamians not hope that this great artist, this Southern gentleman, who still lives and works in the capital of the Confederacy. be the maker or the monument to our immortal senti- ment7

RY sayOYARD.

On the 18th day of December, 1875. the House of Representatives or the Forty-fourth Congress voted, 233 yeas, IS nays. on the following resolution, offered by William NJ. springer, then q member from the State of Illinois.
 "Rasolved, That in the opinion Of this House the precedent established by Washington and other Presidents or the United States in retiring from the Presidential office after their second term. has become, by universal concur renee, d part of our republican system of government, and that any departure from this ime-honored custom would be unwise, unpatriotic and fraugnt with peril to our institutions"
 No Democrat is recorded in the neg ative Garfield, Hoar, Hale, Kasson and Kelley voted in sthe affirmative. Blaine and Cannon did not vote at all, The most distinguished names recorded in the negative were Jay Hubbell and Page of California, re-enforced by the colored members from the Southern States yet under the bayonet.
 General Grant was then President, but his administration was not success fuf or popular. Scandal attended It's every step and corruption lurked in ev- cry department. 1t was the day of credit mobilier. of Sanborn. of Leet and stocking, of the whiskey ring, of the Mnlligan letters, of the Belknap inn peachment The active candidates for the succession were Blaine Morton. Conkliug and Bristow. Hayes was receptive candidate. It was Blaine against the field, with Conkling the fla vorite ot the administration, which would have been more than content with Morton. In some quarters 1t was feared that Blaine would get the nomi- nation despite all opposition, and then it was that a third-term movement was set on foot. But fate, ordered it other wise. The Mulligan letters were ex- plotted a few weeks before the conven- ton, and Blaine had sunstroke after the convention assembled and before the baIloting. The opposition gathered around Hayes and he got the nomina- ton.
 TiFden was elected and deprived of fsie office by means of perjury, forgery, arih@rv and theft. General Grant went abroad, circumnavigated the globe, and was accorded honors, by Christian and pagan peoples alike. such. as no other American ever received. Though about the best administration of our history, the Hayes regime was not only unpop- ular, but odious, due to the fraud and corruption of which 1t was the spawn.

P. pro claimed the blasphemy that it was in partnership with Almighty God and the American farmer who would have good crop must vote the Republican ticket.
 Not one intelligent man of a hum

THE THIRD TERM

the Republican party. turned to Gen. eral Grant and set on foot third term movement that was apparently ire sistible. Conkling, Cameron. Logan and Carpenter were the leaders of it.. New York Pennsylvania and Illinois were behind them. Gossip said that many of the Southern Democratic lead- CTS contemplated joining In the move ment.
 It failed by the narrowest accidents. Grant got back from abroad two months too soon. The Republican convention droves a coach and four through the unit rule. Mat Carpenter was on his deathbed. Elihu Washburn deserted Grant. There was treason In the New York and Pennsylvania dele gations. Hoar, chairman of the conven- ton, was for anybody to beat Grant. for Grants election meant Ben But ler's boss-ship in Massachusetts. It was the greatest of our political con- ventions. with the possible exception of that at Charleston in 1860. Conk- ling could have had the nomination at any stage, and he would have been the nominee had he been made of the clay of which Garfield was made. Sher- man would have been the nominee if Blaine had not realized that sherman was his own master. If Don Came TOH. EH6fTIIldn OI tHe INdltOHdi SVAH- mittee, had practiced half the czarfsm Tom Reed visited on the Fifty-first Congress, Grant would have been nom mated, and there was gossip for it that if Cameron had complimented wfndom on the earlier ballots. with a score of votes from the ranks of the so6. Grant would have been nomin- ated.
 N1,.A n1As RaI nn~Aa1A anA Conkiing elected hIm--the Democrats having accomplished the impossible and penetrated the unspeakable in re- jecting the old ticket. No sooner was the election over than Blaine kidnap- ped Garfield. and kept him In Oriental ward. The political destruction of Conkllng was plotted and achieved. To do this the administration presented iitle Mahone's head to Ben Hill on a charger The administration was go- ing straight to destruction when the assassin's bullet did it's awful work.
 When the Republican National Con- vention of 1880 adjourned 1t was sup posed that this country would not again be agitated by the. third term spectre for a century; but in 1907 the most popular suggestion in American politics is third term for Theodore Roosevelt. and if the Sixtieth Con- gress should vote on the Springer res olution next December, it will be beaten overwhelmingly.
 As in 1878 and 1880. there are nurner. ous candidates for the Republican nom ination in 190S--Taft, Knox, Cannon Fairbanks, all active candidates. Tn |. receptives include Foraker, Hughes T4aFolIette, Shaw. 1Coftelyou, Cummins | Root, and perhaps others; but if Roose welt should give the wink all oomneti | ton would vanish. His would be tn only name presented, and his nomina ] tion would be by exclamation. Tn chief concern of the convention woul
 be to find out his wishes as to secon

He even attemped modification of the initiative and referendum, and failed to get away from that also. He can not run away from Roosevelt. if Roose- welt is the nominee. He is boss of the Democratic party all right, but he is not boss enough to take the nom- ination if there is chance and reject 1t If there is no chance. That would be carpet knight
 Would Roosevelt be invincibIe? Quite likely-against Bryan. But whenever a political party nominates a candi- date for a third term In the White House, 1t will be tantamount to a dec laration that It's membership contains but one man fit for the Presidency. and whenever the country elects a man to a third term in the White House it will be tantamount to a declaration that our entire citizenship can fur nish but one man fit for President.
 Nobody knows how deep-seated is that conviction in the public mind. Presidents. The ber-thinking, se- date, sagacious. silent folk make Amer ican Presidents. That there is in- veterate prejudice against third term we all know. and there will new CT be a third term except as a choice of evils. Thousands of thoughtless men would like a third term President for the novelty of it--these are noisy gents. Tens of thousands of thinking men look upon third term with dread, and these are of the voters, who make Presidents.
 MT. Roosevelt is far into his second term. He has sailed with the current every moment. He is the most pop ular man of our history but a third term would mean a walking of tight rope. as high from the earth as the moon, for four years. It would be sending the pitcher to the we'll unnec' essarily. John L. Sullivan can tell him about 1t. Hannibal went to Ca pua- Napoleon to Waterloo.

When the committee in charge of the Pettus-M Morgan Memorial Fund begins its work. the attention of the people of Alabama will again be turned to the glory of our statesmen. Now that the first anguish of grief is passed and the fervor of exultant pride, when our great dead lay in state before the world. Is calmed. let us look steadily at the way in which we man consecrate the memory of these men. To have a working idea" will stimulate the people and aid the committee.
 Pettus and Morgan need no further eulogies. Our love for these Alabam- ians has shown itself in words of ten- dernsss and grief flung far over the world at the time of their passing away and in the tears and the pageants that followed them to their resting place under our spreading oaks. More than these, our love has shown itself in the confidence and support given them dur ing the long years in which they guard ed the interests of our State In the Ma tional Assembly and in the reliance with which we leaned on their strength

Women Who Wear Well. /.

1t is astonishing how great a change q
few years of married life often make in
the appearance and disposition of many
women. The freshness, the charm, the
brilllance vanish like the bloom from q
peach which is rudely handled. The
matron is only dim shadow, a faint echo
OF the charming maiden. There are two
reasons for this change, ignorance and
neglect. Few young women appreciate
tho shock to the system through the
change which comes with marriage and
motherhood. Many neglect to deal with
the unpleasant pelvic drains and weak
1esses which too often come with mar
tiage and motherhood, not understanding
that this secret drain is robbing the cheek
Of its freshness and the form of its
fairness.
