 Judge Jones of the Fedora! court has been the victim of unjust abuse. He is one of Alabama's foremost citizens and one of the ablest men or the South a lawyer of ability and integ- rity and sublime character. For over twenty years in Alabama the higher type of statesman has been supplant- ed by political schemers of question able motives who have successfully appealed to the prejudice of the mass, arraying class against class rid tculing and falsely assalling character where truth reason and logic would not answer their purpose. dignined speech of patriotism Is rarely heard | now adays, the demagOgueS reallzlnB the force of ridicule, slander and | falsehood, more especially when used against wealth and higher ohhcials.

A DISTURBING ASSERTION.

A brief sentence in The Boston Globe is calculated to make cold chills course up and down ones spinal column. even during the hot weather. It reads thus: Daniels comet is approaching the earth at a speed of 5o,0o0 miles sec- ond." Not being an expert cornetolo- gist, and not being personally ac- quainted with the large tribe of star gazers, we must confess that we don't know who Mir. Daniel is, nor where his comet started from, or how or why he let it get away from him. We don't know why the thing is headed for the earth. We have done nothing to it that we know of. and cannot under stand why it should want to make target of us just at this time when we are having trouble enough of our own.
 As we said. we don't know where Daniels comet was located before it started this way. It is sufficient to know that it is headed in our direc- tion, and if the arithmetic we studied at school is not at fault 1t is coming at the rate of 1SO.OOO, 900 miles an hour. Unless somebody can put the brakes on, or give the rudder twist and shoot it off in another direction, it is liable to give us a jolt >most any old day now. Cne consoling thought is that this old earth of ours is travelling at pretty good gait it. 1 self and the comet may miss us, pro- vlded 1t has no special enmity to- wards us and is determined to hit us a clip anyhow. Another source of hope lies in the fact that we have no idea of its size. It may be a small thing, and may bust the ocean open. or hit some place that isn't of much con- sequence, like the Philippines, for ex- ample On the other hand it may be large enough to knock our earth clear off it's course and send us sHy-rooting into some region of space that we nev- CT heard of, and where none of us would know what to do or how to con duct ourselves.
 Cannot somebody get out an injunc- tion against MT. Daniel and his sky rocket and head 'em in another direc- ton? As before remarked, we have troubles enough of our own just now We want to elect a Democratic Pres ident next year, and we are badly enough worried right here in Ala bama without having a measly stray comet come along and muss things This is a great day for injunctions' They can even enjoin a big railroad and it does seem that some power could be found to scotch comet.

SUNDAY, AUGUST IS, 1907.
TT IS TIME FOR REASON AND NOT
 PASSION.

we do not believe that many citi- gems of Alabama will follow the exam pie of Mir. Henry B. Gray of Birm- ingham, and rush into print in abuse of a Federal Judge. It Is quite easy to abuse a Judge. It should be remembered that there are men of far more intellect and greater grasp of legal matters than Mir. Gray, who believe that there has been no invasion of the rights of the State in any steps taken by the railroads or Judge Jones, in connection with the recent State legislation about railroads. They are men, too, who love our state just as much as he does, and who would not willingly see the State ,deprived of any of its rights.
 The situation is one to be regretted and all good citizens hope that there may be a speedy and satisfactory con clusion. Pyrotechnical displays are out of place at a juncture like this. It is a time for cool, calm, conservatism, and there has been no occasion so far for anything else. The railroads that are involved have able attorneys. and are not likely to advise a course that cannot be defended. They may be mistaken as to final conclusion, but if the State and Federal Constitution gave them the right to enter the Fed eraI Court wherein is the State wrong ed. True, the State courts were also open, but in the exercise of their best Judgment the Federal Court was chos- en. Ample provision was made for payment of any damage that might accrue between commencement and ter imitation of suits in case the railroads lost before the United States Supreme Court.
 The careful attention of all the peo- pla of Alabama is invited to the very able opinion of Judge Jones, published in today's Advertiser. Nothing coulc be clearer than his statement of req sons for granting the injunction prayed for as to stay of State prosecutions against officials or agents of the rail roads. He has given the whole matter careful and patriotic consideration. ant if we mistake not those who read Il will come to the conclusion that his critics cannot answer 1t.

Railroad commissioner i,

Railroad Commissioner in Ala bama is at least quasi judge. 9fe has to hear complaints against rail- roads and decide upon cases after hearings. His mind, therefore, should be free of prejudice so as to be capa- ble of doing equal and exact justice. In view of this state of facts Com- missioner Nesbit is not justified in his criticism of one railroad corporation. at least. and it would seem that the company. if there was any law to that effect, would have the right to ask that he be excluded from hearing cases in which its interests were involved. His utterances certainly would indi- cate mind filled with prejudice.

RULE OF THE WICKED.

One of the almost inevitable penal ties that city--and especially a Northern one-pays for being great is bad municipal government. New York. Philadelphia. Pittsburg. Chicago. San Francisco. even Boston. grow in mu- nicipal rottenness as they grow in population. Whether opportunity for graft causes good men to become cor- rupt or whether the possibility--or certainty--that there is opportunity causes corrupt men to get the offices matters little. for the result Is the same. The money is there and the looters get it.
 Not every good man Is able to re- main honest when temptation is in his way and the opportunity to enrich himself is before him. It would be mistake to suppose that every man who has grown rich by crooked methods in ofice was a sconndrel at heart before he got into power. for we believe that many a man who would have remain ed upright and honest if he had re- mained in private life has yielded to temptation when it came to him. "The woman tempted me. and fell" plead ed Adam. trying to shield himself by accusing his wife. ''The money tempt ed me and fell" moans the man who has violated the confidence re- posed in him and robbed those who trusted him. Better had he remained in private life and in poverty than to know himself a felon. even if he es- capes conviction.
 On the other hand. there can be no doubt of the fact that men who are dishonest at heart and intent get into office solely for what they can make out of it. Political pull is wonder full power in large cities for those who know how to take advantage of it. We have often wondered why it is that the people, who are generally disposed to be honest and do right, will elect men whom they know to be dishonest to important municipal offices. It is easy enough to get at the motives of the small politicians who are on the make They want something in the future and will boost the man who may be able to help thems no matter how great rascal they may know him to be. In other words. they will boost a rascal into position in the hope that he will pull them at least little way upward. you push me and I'll pull you" is the theory they act on.
 No doubt that principle is responsible for much of the corruption that is go- ing on in many of the large cities of the North. The weak men fall after they get into office and the strong and dishonest ones work their way into power for their own benefit. In either ease the wicked triumph and grow rich at the expense of those who must pay the cost. It is almost continu- ous story that is told by the news papers of the large cities of misrule embezzlement and general official cor ruption. Sometimes one is caught ana punished for his misdeeds, and some
 times one makes good his escape witt the profits of his jraseality, but som'
 manage to get the money and escape detection. Any way it turns out sont must suffer because of the evil deedi of others It Is a wicked world--il some places.

A staunch Republican contemporary. The Indianapolis Star. discussing the proposition looking to the nomination of Southern Democrat for the pres idency. says:
 No doubt, intelligent Southern men are growing weary of voting in tnG air, and now that they are confronted with . practical certainty that any pos sible Northern candidate will be well comed with bloody hands to a. hospit- able grave. by large faction of hfs own party, it is not surprising that far-sighted leaders are casting about for some means of escape from the di- lemma. It may possibly have occur red to them that sectional prejudice is largely a bogy which has been util ised by shrewd Northerners to control nominations as they des red. But it is doubtful if they can ever impress such views on the rank and file of the party, even in the South.
 In politics, as in war, it is not al- ways a bad policy to learn from the enemy, and what The Star says is worth considering. Southern Demo- crats are growing weary of voting in the air." as they have mostly done for more than forty years. Many of them are coming to the conclusion that If nothing but defeat is to be expected it might as we'll come under one of our own strong men as any other way. That sectional bogy is not frightening Southern Democrats much these days.
