WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER IS. 1908.
A PROSPERITY EDITION.

The Walker County News was out last week in notable Prosperity Edi- tion." This edition. was probably the best advertisement that Walker county has received since it started to grow ing. Walker is one of the older coun- ties of Alabama, yet it's greatest devel- opment is 6 product of recent years. As late as the development was in starting, It now seems that the county is making up for all lost time. It has already become in industries and in mining one of the leading counties of the State.
 The edition of The Walker County News. Is Issued at an opportune time, for it was designed to catch the eye of progress, as the county Is recovering from the unfortunate effects of last years financial depression. Existing conditions in Walker its remarkable advance in the past twenty-five years and the bright future which opens for it are exoellently presented. The News has done a good part for it's county. The town of. Jasper. as we'll as the county of Walker should be grateful to The News for one of the best. and most striking editions published in AL abama in recent years.

PreclOu. Metals from Alabama.

Geological Survey.
 Alabama produced in 1907 gold and silver to the value of $26.272, an in. crease of $1,268 over the States pro- duction of these metals in 1906. The gold yield was 1,256.SS fine ounces. valued at S35,9S2. an. increase of 51.33 ounces in quantity and of $1,061 in value. The silver yield, always small, was 439 fine ounces, valued at $290.
 Some copper, also, was produced in Alabama, in the form of cement re- covered from treatment in acid works of the cupriferous pyrite ores of Pyri- ton. Clay County,
 The gold belt of the Appalachian portion of Alabama, and includes parts or all of Cleburne, Randolph, Clay, Talladega, Tallapoosa. Goosa, Chiffon and Elmore counties.
 In a report on the mine production of gold silver. copper. lead and zinc by the United States Geological Sur vey as an advance chapter from Min eral Resources of the United States Calendar Year 19O7," H. D. McCaskey, one of the geologists of the survey says: The year 1907 was marked by the continuation of active development, of experiments with metallurgical methods best adapted to the ores, and of steady production at the Hog Noun tain mines; by renewed interest in the old Silver Hill mines and in the Tal- lapoosa mine, with slight production from the latter during the early part of the year: by operations at Clear Creek and Gold Ridge; and by the con- tinued output of cupriferous pyrite ore at the Pyriton mtneS.

FIFE COLLEGE SPIRIT.
University ot AIabnma Paper Tells
 What It Means.

Crimson and White.
 The recent discussion of college spir- 1t has revealed the component parts oi that rather vague yet potent factor oi college life. Certainly chief among these may be reckoned class spirit. for as a college entire is what it's differ ent classes make II, so in a great de- gree. college spirit is the aggregate of the enthusiasm that Is displayed by each of the collegiate classes. We hear 1t sometimes said that the class spirit does not seem to operate as &C., lively now as it did in the "olden days. " and doubtless there is some truth in the statement.
 The life of the student of today is no longer one entirely of books. reei- tations and lectures. With the in- creasing development of athletic, lit- erary, dramatic and religious organiza- tions together with the various social clubs. his life has become appreclably more. complex, his time and attention more and more divided. and conse- quentlY his. loyalty and enthusiasm for each, in a degree. lessened.
 And yet It means sofnethjnE to stu dents to go through the four college years as class mates. To tread the hu- initiating valley of freshman life to- gsther, to mount, the higher plane of sophomore importance in unison, to climb the heights of junior reserve and dignity, and. hand in hand to stand up- on the summit with the poise and as- suranee of a senior. All this journey counts for something in the life of each individual. and makes for. true friendship and love among the stu dents. Thus a common interest is welded that binds classmates even in the life beyond the college walls.
 Wen may twe take care to attend to the development of class spirit, and see that other interests and other de- nands for enthusiasm do not encroach upon the domain Of class loyalty.
 The recent. happy election of senior class officers is manifestation that class spirit is. awakening with us here at Alabama, for all admit that it has been In a somewhat dormant state; And now that 1t Is awake, would 1t not be well that sve ssS to 1t that class spirit at Alabanaa is' kept awake? Or, in the words of the Reniors' president, In his inaugural remarks last week,
 Let all of us strive unitedly to make our class count for something in the college life at Alabama"

SLAVE GrnI. AND EMPRESS.

From slave girl to Empress autocrat- ically ruling 270.o0o.00o of people--the Arabian Nights contains no story as wonderful as the life history of that old woman who died Saturday in pal ace in Pekins. Her remarkable life would have been possible in no other country than China-that country which has ever remained weird mys- tery to occidental minds
 It is only known that for more tban half a century this woman who was brought to the palace a slave girl to amuse an Emperor, has sat firmly in the seat of authority and as firmly held the reins of government. Puppet Em- perors. one after the other arose had their day. such as it was and passed on. The slave girl Empress was the true ruler and none knew it so we'll as the unfortunates who wore the empty title of Emperor. The outer world knows but little of her beyond that she lived. reigned and ruled.
 Of Tartar blood she had not even the right to claim that she was a na- tive of China. slave though she was. She was nothing but a low born out cast whose parents were so poor that they sold her in slavery. The millions she afterwards had at her call, could have bought RockefeIler's fortune over
 Ia, l;n1A n.rxr alan fenced with Hohenzollern and Roman off, the descendants of a hundred Kings
 The palace life of China is hidden from the world and the veil Is not to be lifted. But whatever the game of intrigue was. that slave girl when she was brought there as prcpitiary of- ferIng to the Emperor. becomes it's mis- tress. She found in the balance the reins of authority and her hands loos- ened them only at the cold touch of death.
 Three Emperors bore the title while she ruled that huge nation of mystery, DuL Anc lllIG1 WOAC HO AES5 AiOA authority than the humblest subject. Nor did she rule wisely. China suf- fered more in her reign than it did in all the previous centaFies.s She knew the palace but she did not know the outer world. She entered the outer worlds. diplomacy only at the cost of china's territory and prestige. Per, haps her interior policy was no more successful than her foreign policy, She violated china's constitution and trampied upon It's traditions and laws but she ruled and ruled to the last.
 It might have been better for China had she never lived. but her name will be written high among the women who made history. And like most women who made history. she was not a good woman. even according to China's standard.

PasslnE of the afarine,.

New York World.
 President RooseveTt's order to withdraw the marines from the warships might as well be an order abolishing the force A bill to the latter effect was buried when the gallant record of the marine corps was presented eloduently to the House.
 Naval officers have long objected to the presence of marines on board their shipx The. antipathy of the sailors to seaKoing soi- diers runs still further back and is trace- able to one of the original offices of the marines-that of doing police duty on the ships and of preventing the organization of mutineers, ''co tell it to the marines!" is an expression of common usage, had its or- igin in the contempt of the sallorman for the ships infantry.
 In the British navy the marine corps was times abolished and restored, The insti- tuition of the corps in the United stator service dates from June, 1776. and there has never been disestablishment. though the marines practically disappeared for tho period following the Revolution when the navy also faded away.
 Our marines have fought gaiiantiy in China, Japan, Cpreas the Bahamas, TTipoiL Egypt Sumatra. Peru and Hawaii. Some of them were at New Orleans with Jackson They distinguished themselves at ChRpulte- pee in the Mexican war, and later hoisted their colors in the City of Mexico. They kept the peace at Panama in 1885 and were the bodyguard of the present republic of Panama at it's birth Tn the Spanish war they did yeoman's service Nineteen times they have received the thanks of Congress

srTok To rRE PRpsENr PLAN,

Some weeks ago The Advertiser printed portions of an article prepared by Hon. Eminet o'Neal in opposition to the proposition to elect United States Senators by direct vote of the people. i Recently thera appeared in The NoSth American Review a splendid article on the same subject by Mir. o'Neal, which deserves to be circulated and read wherever this wrong policy is advocat- ed. -.-. Of late there has been no little agi- tation and discussion of the question and it is reGretahle to notice that the plan has gained considerable strength among those who appear to think that we are not living under a popular form of government because all officials are not elected by popular vote, and they hold that Senators should be chosen in the same way. Of course the Consti- tuition would have to be amended, be- cause that provides the method of eleeting Senators and they cannot be elected in another way without a change in the fundamental law. The idea is to have Congress submit to the people an amendment carrying out the plan desired. As one example of the argument used we submit the main portion of resolution which has been agreed on in Kansas, and which Is to be presented to Congress at the next session. The resolution reads:
 The Senate of the United States shall be composed of ntnety-two Senators chosen by popular vote. The Senators shall be apportioned as follows:
 New York, one Senator to every B.
 Nevada. one Senator to every 21,OOO people.
 Pennsylvania, one Senator to every 3O00.000 people.
 Wyoming one Senator to every S5.. 900 people.
 illinois, one Senator to every 2.4OV.- 900 people.
 Idaho. one Senator to every SO.OOO people
 It will be noted that the Senate is to be composed of the same number of members as at present, but they are to be chosen differently. The Senator's are to be apportioned according to | population. and we suppose there would have to be a new apportionment after each census. as population is continu, ally changing and what would be l fair apportionment now might be va fair ten years hence. Tn fact. the ilea I that Senators shall be apportioned ac- cording to population is impracticable, it occurs to us. and would be subvers- i've of one of the main objects sought by those wise patriots who formed our |, Constitution, as a little reflection will 1 show.
 It win be remembered by those who have read the history of ohr Federal 1 Constitution that one of the dlficulties the framers had to contend with was the delicate problem of eIualizing and regulating the powers of the States in Congress. Some of the delegates from the smaller States hesitated because, as they rationally argued, if Senators | anu ANSPl"SS4'N@tlNSS f.tit dppoFtlohNA according to population or area of l States the Congress would he dominat, ed by few of the large states and the l smaller ones would practically have no voice in the law mdking body.
 That this objectioB vas sound is be- yond doubt. as any one can see who will take note of thu area and popOla- | tion of the various Colonies at that

Concerning wOman's Beauty.

Harper's Bazaar.
 Man in Africa likes his women large and round, and fattens them in dark. ened huts. like Hamburg geese. Man in England likes them strong and brave Man in India likes them soft and submissive. Man in America likes them almost any way, 1t would ap. pear.
 But his changefui standards of taste have played hob with beauty. There are few women who even know the right proportions of the human figure or would care to have them. if they did. Feeble little feet, futfle little hands. fragile little bodies he has de. manded and produced. Woman s weakness Is her charm" says the ar- bitter in one of his moods.
 Women are growing stronger now but man will find the charm Is still there.
