The political habit is so firmly fixed
upon some of the newspapers that al

candidates for the next democratic
nomination for president. 1t would
be better for the party and particular
ly better for the South if we would
forget politics and politicians until
1912 and put in four good years for

Up in Birmingham, Ala, there is a
strong and concerted movement in
that direction and a booklet has been
issued giving instructions and sugges-
lions on the improvement Of lawns
and premises. Here is an extract
from it that should be helpful to our
local league:
In the fall, anywhere from October
18th to December LIST. Bermuda sod
should be supplemented by sowing
seeds of other grasses for a winter
lawn This replanting should be done
with Kentucky blue grass or white
clover and a little red top. and with
reference to shaded situations. The
English rye grass can and should be
sown without regard to the shade, as
81 does well In either the shade or
the open The mixture should be
planted at the rate of from one to
three mounds tn 400 snuare feet or a
space 10x30, or 15x20. etc, according
to the kind of seed. You can also OBJ
tain from seed merchants regularly
mixed lawn seed containing the above
varieties of grasses, together with
other winter grasses mixed in the
proper proportions. This will give a
beautiful green all winter. which only
dies down in spring when the Bermu-
da starts into growth.

The Hon. Luke Wright, twice sue

1t may be interesting to note what

McWade, in the Woman's National
Daily, says:
Il nave read the public declaration
of Secretary Wright" says Lawyer
English, that the president of the
United States is not the servant but
the ruler of the people, Secretary
Wright is wrong. The president un-
der our form OF government is not
only servant, but he is u servant of
limited power and of no prerogative
that cannot be checked by congress.
He can be charged and tried for any
act That congress may see fit to call
an offense.
Congress could declare the using
of officeholders to force a nomination
for president an offense unbecoming
the office of president.
1t could declare that abusive let

congress and elsewhere to be an Of
Tense degrading the office.
1T could declare the issuing OF
political speeches, the denunciation Of
congressman, senators and judges to
be offenses that lower and degrade the
office of president.
For these and other acts congress
could impeach a president and de-
clare the Office vacant. Congress
could even declare the office vacant
without Impeachment, as was done by
parliament when James III was king.
THE power of congress under our
form of government is supreme and
congress represents what Mr.. Wright
calls the 'groundlings'that il, the
masses. Mr.. Wright as secretary OF
