birmingham Ledger.
Rev. DIR. Long declares President
Roosevelt doesn't know anything about
wolves and caribou. From what the
President has publicly stated about
Mr. Hartman and other bulls and
bears, however. he seems to have given
some study to those branches OF the
animal kingdom.
AH From One Shop.
Roanoke Leader.
Last week The Leader quoted from
and commented upon the extravaganza
resolution of the Republicans of the
Fifth District commendatory of Presi-
dent Roosevelt. This week we quote
in full on the first page of this paper
the superlative resolutions of the
district. These resolutions are
on par with the ones first
referred to. They make refreshing
reading-a trifle worrlsome: to be sure
but an exhibition of the bombastic and
elastic qualities of the English Ian
guage.
Tax Raising.
Northport Breeze
The State Tax Commissioners are go
ting from county to county everywhere
saying the assessments are too low and
demanding that they be raised. We
do not need TO take more money from
the people. Surplus public money
ing too little tax on account of their
low assessment raise them. But every
time one is raised because he is too
low. lower another because he Is too
high. In this way the amount of tax
will remain the same and each will pay
his fair share

Prophet WateFson.
Fort Payne Journal
Mr.. Bryan doesn't think much of
Colonel Watterson as a prophet. In
reply to the Colonefs prediction that
Hughes would be nominated and elect
ed next President the Colonel is cour-
teously reminded that he predicted the
defeat of Grover Cleveland and the cleo
tion OF Judge Parker. The mere re-
calling OF these predit lions seems to
leave the ColoneIs reputation as a
prophet without leg to stand upon.
