waters of Hampton Roads, near tbs
cities of Northfolk, Portsmouth and
Newport News, Va, April &c to No
vember 50, 1907, is to be the most
unique, and in originality and novelty
will completely eclipse all previous ex-
positions.
The celebration commentaries the
most important event in history-the
founding Of the first English-speakins
settlement in America at jamestown,
Va. in 1907. Where Captain John Smith
and a small party of colonists estab-
lished a village from which has grown
America, with nearly one hundred mil
lion population. The celebration wit
show the remarkable position attained
by the United States In history and ed
ucation. together with the marvellous
industrial development and CONNER
cial expansion during three hundred
years. Contemporaneous with the ex-
position will be held on the waters of
Hampton Roads the greatest naval
pageant ever witnessed in the world,
i'll which every type of war vessel from
the navies of all foreign nations will
participate. Another attractive feat.

A VISIT TO IRELAND.
History, Relies Of Antiquity and Beau
tiful Scenery

The ordinary tourist has hurried
past Ireland in quest of unsatisfactory
impressions of the continent which
he gains by seeing d ruin here, bit
OF art there. and a confusion OF
tongues, railway schedules and ideas
everywhere. says the Wilkesbarre, Pa,
Leader.
But in passing Ireland the traveller
misses a. portion of the globe where,
within comparatively narrow confines,
more relics of antiquity exist, more
history abounds, and more beauty of
scenery is found than anywhere the
transportation companies slunt him in
order to hurry westward for another
human cargo.

Col. Lewellen Johns, after siege of fever, Is up and out again, much to the delight of his numerous friends He was in the Florence lobby yesterday evening and was surrounded by many who ad- mire the man. Said he:
 T am up and out again, and feel bet ter than I did before taking a real bed rest, You know it is very seldom that am held down. but this time I was simply overcome by extraordinary exertion. have now come to the conclusion that work too hard, but I am going to quit it. I don't have to do It. and would not have worked as hard as I have ex- cept to show the people of this district what splendid possibilities they possess. For years 1 have worked to this end. l have not only worked at home but abroad; have let the world know what We here possess. and if I were to die tomor- row, l know I will find my reward

Cotton as a Cash Crop

Richard H. Edmonds says MT. liar riman's optimistic views in relation to southern agricultural productions fall short of actuallty. The latter bases his estimate on a bale-value of s45, when. in fact, cotton is selling at $60 a bale. and when the value of the seed is added the bale value Is fully $70. This means to the south about $900,- 000. 900 in cold cash before March 1, as against $500, 100000 received from last years crop.
 The aggregates from this magnif- cent cash crop are so great the mind refuses to grasp them. It is, however, S51 per head for every man, woman and child in the cotton belt, black or white, for, excluding Virgiania and in cluding Florida, there were in the cot ton belt but 17,50O,O0O people in the last census year. The south has, it is true, more population than it had in the census year, but to the present population the present crop will bring in fully $45 per capita. This sum at least can be mentally grasped.
 To this state the present crop will bring a handy sum. The state crop will probably be just about 1,200,000 bales. At $70 a bale this means $84,000,000, or just about $45 a head including the smallest pickaninny in the common wealth
 No wonder the south is getting rich at the rate of $7,3O0,oOo day. The world reeds every year more and more cotton. The staple is supplanting all other flores, and in all probability cot ton will never again sell below 10 cents The south is today the most in vitlng section of this country. the one to which young men should turn, for it Is the one that produces the best and most satisfactory cash crop on a large scale in the world.

IN HOTEL LOBBIES
Lonq of Walker.

Tom Long of Walker was in the city yesterday. Long of Walker is a strong proposition. The family developed the county, primarily. It has always been a divided family in politics. but never q disrupted one. Said MT. Long yester- day. who, by the way, is democratic member of the household:
 We are all right in Walker, and are building Jasper into a great big city. We have there a dispensary. It works well, and you Birmingham people ought to have one here Yes, about ten; they would pay your public debt, support your schools and make you rich indeed. You would never again talk of the liquor ques- ton If you would only put in the dispen- saries.
 Walker county has made good crops this year. and is moving forward more rapidly than ever before since it was es- tablshed. The Longs still live there and they are long way off from being an nihiliated" :"

-----7--7--1l---77--l1 77777---7-77l----- Iwo-cent Passenuer Rates

The legislature of Pennsylvania passed almost unanimously a 2-cent passenger law, to go into effect Octo Der 1. What did the Pennsylvania rail road do? Instead of rushing into the federal courts to get an injunction 1t began a suit In a Philadelphia local court. and 1t has just gained a victory in that court. The new rate has been adiudged unreasonable and even con- fiscatory. The court, too, declares that the new rate law in Pennsylvania vio- lates a contract between the railroad and the state made in 1S46. The case will be appealed to the state supreme court, and it will undoubtedly become a test in Pennsylvania of 2-cent laws. The entire issue may, In fact, be set tied in Pennsylvania without resort to any federal court. State laws are best tested in state courts with re- served right In either party to them to ask for final arbitration in the United States supreme court.
 The Pennsylvania case has some bearing upon similar cases in other states, but in each state each case must come up on It's merits. No case should be prejudiced, and let us hope no case will be misjudged.
 The Pennsylvania railroad deserves praise for proceeding in an orderly manner to judgment in the state courts. In some way the policy of blocking state laws by orders issued in inferior federal courts must be done away with, for 1t has tendency to destroy the sovereignty of the states and to centralize power In the federal government. No one should desire to do this, and it is some comfort to know that the best-goverend railroad in the country has no intention of doing any thing to impair the rights of the states.

 While I realize that sentiment almost entirely governs prohibition contests, con- munities being literally swept off their feet by the united efforts of able speak CTS, still l believe the people of Birming- ham are yet open to reason, and are will ing to read the experience of other cities with prohibition and to make up their minds only after careful investigation.

Justice After Many Years

Hannis Taylor calls attention to the fact that Pelatiah Webster, a native of Connecticut, an adopted son of Penn sylvania and graduate of Yale, originated, or at least first published the plan of creating federal govern ment that should not be dependent on the state, but that should operate di. rectly on the citizen. He published in 1783 a pamphlet setting forth in full his plan for a federal government linn ited in powers, but possessing the full right to enforce its powers without seeking permission from or action on the part of the states.
 Keep in mind the fact that Pelatiah

Schnnl k'nneYs in Alabama

Exclusive of poll taxes the school tund for the fiscal year beginning Oc- tober aggregates s1,553,636. This Is the sum the state has appropriated to the children who go to school but under the present plan of distribution some children in school get twice, per haps thrice, as much as other children in school.
 There are about 100000 children in the state who should share equally in this states largess. As plain matter of fact, however, only 275,000 get any benefit from the school fund and 425,- 900 Alabama children derive no benefit whatever from the fund. Their allow ances are absorbed by the 275 900. And this is aggravated by means of padded enumerations, so that a consclenceless county gets more than it's share of the fund After getting more than It's share 1t proceeds to rob one-half of It's own children in order to give the other half a rich proportion in the shape of long terms and fine teachers.
 When MT. Noel becomes governor of Mississippi he says he will urge the legislature of his state to base appor- tionments on school enrolment and attendance. This would put his state In line with other progressive states, and perhaps after while Alabama will see that money appropriated to pupils in school shall not be appropri- ated to those who refuse to attend school-that is to say, 1t shall not ap- parently go to them. Where it does really go cannot be accurately deter mined

ARBITRATION TREATY.
Italian and Argentine Convention Is to
 Be Used as a Model.

The Hague. September 12.-Special care was taken In drafting the general arbitration treaty just concluded, in behalf of their respective govern ments by the Italian and Argentine delegates to the peace conference, in order that it may serve as model for other treaties of a like nature, which Italy and Argentine expect to conclude with other countries. By the terms of this treaty the two countries interested agree to submit to arbitra tion all differences which may arise between them, with the exception of those affecting provision of the con stitution or questions of nationality. In case of a conflict of views each country will appoint an arbitrator who will appoint third. In the event of the arbitrators of the two countries being able to agree on the appoint ment of a third, the appointment will be made by the Queen of the Neither lands.
