SATURDAY. JANUARY 4, 1908.
EFFECT AND CAUSE.

In an item copied into The Advertiser yesterday morning, Mir. Edgar Boehm states that automobiles run with more power at night than in the day time, and gives as an explanation that veg citation gives out certain gases at night which assist the motive power of the autos. This may. for anything we know to the contrary, be correct theory. but there is another fact along the same line that cannot thus be ex- plained or accounted for. All who have had anything to do with water mills. or with other machinery driven by water power. will testify that such machinery, with the same expenditure of water, runs with more power at night than in the day. This has been gen. orally observed. and the only explana- ton we have seen was that the water IS heavier at night than in the day. time.
 Whether this is a correct and phiio- sophical explanation of a generally known fact we are not able to decide, but we do know the truth of the claim that the grist mill. for example, would show a noticeable acceleration of speed and power during the night. as any old miller will remember and perhaps the theory as to water having increas- cd weight after the sun went down was proper one. MT. Boehm may be right in his explanation of the cause of autos running with more speed at night than in the day. Doubtless many apparently queer things can be easily explained if we know how to set about it.

TEACHING UPWARD.

The esteemed Portland oregonian is somewhat inclined to be old-fashioned in it's ideas and ideals of education. In a recent issue it sets forth in some detail the advantages of good primary teaching and shows how education should begin at the bottom, as it were, and go upward. Thus" 1t says, "ed- ucation would cleave to life afrom be- ginning to end and we should see rer suits that would make a new era in human history. As things are now conducted. the primary schools take their orders from the high schools, the high schools take theirs from the CO., leges, and the colleges take theirs from a world long dead and gone. The result Is an education which has lost it's touch with life and which fails more and more to command the respect of the young. Of course 1t will be answered that there were never so many young people in college as now; but this is not very relevant. It has become socially desirable to be a col- lege graduate. Degrees are sought with something of the same ardor as automobiles, and from similar motives. Young people who have the economic motive in mind go to technical schools, not to college. To this ob- servation the colleges always answer that they dwell in a realm far, far above the sordid economic motive. and so they do; but the great body of man. kind cannot afford to inhabit that rar- fled region; and therefore we say it is wrong for the colleges to seek to impose their educational ideals upon the schools below them, where men who must work for a living ought to begin to learn how to do their work

MAKING A MISTAKE.

The Charleston Post remarks that Taft is not himself yet" No, nor will he be as long as he acts as sort of megaphohe for Roosevelt. We are free to confess that we are both sur prised and disappointed at Taft. He Is a genuinely big man, physically and mentally. He is man of big brain. of extensive information and of strong and vigorous intellect. He is not a man who needs to be coached, gov erned or led, for he is amply able to mark out and follow a course for him. self, politically or otherwise.
 Taft is making a big mistake in our a member of the Presidents oficial family he feels that 1t would seem ungracious to oppose the views of his chief. or whe he lacks the moral courage to throw off the Roosevelt col lar and act and speak for himself, we cannot say, but either is a mistake for him. The fact that he is a member of the Presidents Cabinet does not give the latter any right to control his conscience or dictate his line of po- litical conduct. If on the other hand. he is afraid to oppose Roosevelts for fear of the effect 1t might have on his political future he Is not a fit man to be President. If he will suffer him. self throttled now we might reason ably expect the same of him if he should be elected to the Presidency: It is not merely a man of strong will, like Roosevelt, who Is needed now at the head of the Government. but a man whose strong will is backed by sound judgment-unlike Roosevelt.
 But in another view of the matter the Secretary is making a mistake by allowing himself to be made an echo of Rooseveltism and a supporter of whatever the President believes in and wants carried out. Mir. Taft will find that he is pursuing a bad policy for his future, leaving out all questions of manhood and independence. He will find that subserviency to Roosevelt is not the way to strengthen himself with the people of the United States, or even with the best and most powerful sentiment in his own party. To be re- garded as Roosevelts lieutenant or speaking-tube is not the road to the confidence of even the Republicans as a whole. Possibly he will be able to see this a little later. but it may be too late for him to get any benefit from it.

gro in all his relations. The Judge. The Times says. has tried 12.oeo ne- groes. and for every crime that can be committed. and he is assurediy bet ter judge of them in all their relations than any one in New England can 1e. Senator Johnson has also a lifelong acquaintance with the negroes. He has seen them in every possible phase of character and knows them thorough ly.
 And yet, despite the fact that these two intelligent and well-informed men speak of what they know and testify of that which they have seen they can not be accepted as competent witness- es by a newspaper published in Con- necticut, and whose editor probably knows nothing whatever of the South except what he has read. The Judge and the Senator spoke from personal it is possible that they were somewhat drastic. we insist that the conclusions arrived at by them cannot be refuted by New England newspaper. however fair it may think itself. The fact that such men as NorKood and Johnson cannot convince 1t shows how diffi- cult 1t is for our friends up North to treat the subject fairly and impar- tlally.

THEY WILL NOT SEE.
This is from The Hartford (conn.) Times:

This is from The Hartford (conn.) Times:
 Addresses which were made on plotting the Southern view of the Southern negroes, are likely to chal- lenge a good deal of attention. One of the speeches was made by Judge Thomas M. Norwood,. who formerly represented Georgia in the United States Senate and who on Tuesday re- tired from the judgeship of the City livered in Boston by Senator John ston of Alabama.
 Judge Norwood. who has tried 12,- bench expresses his conclusion con- corning the tendencies of the colored race in the United States. His views are extreme, bitter and pessimistic, blacker than the skin of the people whom he portrays.
 Senator Johnston's address is con- ceived in a kindlier spirit than that of Judge Norwood, but the view which the Alabama statesman takes of the negro's capacity is the reverse of hope full.
 The main feature of these two strik- ing addresses are printed elsewhere in The Times. It is needless to say that from some of the conclusions drawn sents and that even if the dark picture is measurably true of the negroes of the South, 1t is measurably untrue of the negroes of the North.
 We are free to admit that Judge Norwood was severe and bitter, as the following extract from his address will show:
 He (the negro) acts under the law of his phylogeny of millions of years. which is brutality md force. while liv- Ing under a civilized Government by whose laws he must be tried and pun imposed upon him by his Creator to make a weapon better than a club, he here avails himself of the white mans inventions; refuses to accept the hoe and plough, and arms himself with razors pistols and guns. and prowls through the woods to murder the white man, to assault white women, rob dwellings, burn barns and steal, know ing that he will be harbored and pro tected by his own race. and. if caught. will be protected by military force and tried by the most humane laws.
 It will be noted that The Times strictly adheres to the habit so com mon in much of the North, of assum- ing a knowledge of the negroes and their characters and characteristics which it cannot possibly possess. The two speakers whom 1t criticises are exceptionally well qualified to speak on the subject in question. Judge Nor woods long services as the judge of Georgia courts qualities him peculiar ly for forming an estimate of the ne-

AND AGENTS.

With a recent evidence of renewed devotion of our employees and assoct- ates before us The Advertiser begins the new year with full realization of it's responsibility and its pledge to carry all the news to the people of Alabama.
 The men and women who are in daily touch with us in the making of The Advertiser know what is in our hearts. To them, we need not voice publicly our appreciation. But we are especially grateful to our corps of news corre- spondents and business agents scat tered throughout Alabama and else where. The continued spirit of loyalty shown by these agents and correspond ents contributes largely to the success of our undertaking.
 It is more evident every day that The Advertiser is the one newspaper in Alabama that may Je relied upon to furnish all of the news of this State. Yesterday morning. for example. we published the news of exactly thirty towns and cities of Alabama. In addi- tion to this we published special news items from our own correspondents in Washington, Jacksonville. Fla. San An tonic, Texas. Pensacola and Milton. Fla, and Columbus, Ga. From many of the thirty towns and cities Of Alabama we have published several different items of news. Many of these items came to us by telegraph or telephone over our own speci l wires.
 And of course we published all of the news of Montgomery. gathered by a corps of live. intelligent and hard working reporters.
 It is to the correspondents and agents of The Advertiser. however, that we turn especially at this season. We feel that they are helping us in our chief ambition--to publish all of the news in Alabama fit to print and to disseminate 1t after 1t Is published. To each of them we send hearty wish for a prosperous year.

The country believed, with Van Buren, that he would be the nom inee of the Democratic convention in 1890. yet comparatively obscure man, Polk, was selected.

 year before the convention of 1880 Seward and Douglas were singling out each other for attack, as Taft and Bryan have been recently and for the pirants of nearly half century ago were assailed by the opposite party far more vigorously than Taft or Bryan is now, under the belief that they would fought at the polls. Lincoln beat Sew ard in the convention and Douglas fail ed to get the nomination of a united party, the South repudating him and putting up a candidate of its own, Breckenridge.
 Blaine was confident just before the convention of 1876. and Grants friends were equally sanguine about their fa- vorite in 1880, but in each case the convention chose somebody elsc-Hayes in 1876 and Garfield in 1880. After Blaines withdrawal from the race early in 1888 Sherman thought that the prize was his. just as Bland believed. at the opening of the Democratic Convention in 1896, that the dominant silver issue would make him the candidate. yet Harrison carried off the prize in the convention in. the former year and Bryan in the latter.
