HOT FIGHT FOR COUNCIL ON ISLAND

Although there was a big fight on

votes cast on the island than at the

year there were 220 votes polled. at
Wildwood 265, and at Holly Beach
476, making a total of 961, as against
$3.50 polled last year at the primary.
The greatest interest was manifested in
the contest between the two Republic
can candidates for the nomination for
state senator from the fact that M of
them was a citizen of Holly Beach.
The fight waxed warm between ex-
Sheriff w. IL. Bright and Senator

AbOlIshins the Right of Bail.
A.Ac


If the construction put upon the Ian
guage of the Governors call for a spe-
cial Legislature is correct, he has a
strange card up his sleeve. 1t Is said
that he wants to repeal the law per-
hitting bail in misdemeanor cases :.
And the smirky comment is made that
lit is believed this would help the
cause of prohibition" We cannot be-
lieve, even If the Governor should GO
stark mad over the subject of playing
topsy turvy with the laws of Alabama,
a single member of the Legislature
would be fool enough to vote for such
a measure much less have the gall to
Introduce It, The idea of compelling
person to remain in jail six months
or year without an opportunity to
give bail is beyond the widest vaga-
ries that have hitherto entered into
the minds of any of our modern stat
ute makers. Moreover, the Constitu-
ton of the State declares "all persons
SHALL before conviction. be bailable by
sufficient securities, except for capital
offenses.' The Constitution of the
United states also remarks, excessive
bail shall not be required. nor excess
i've fines imposed, nor cruel and un-
usual punishments inflicted" The
Governor would, in order to do this
most remarkable thing, be forced to
repeal both the Constitution of the
State of Alabama and the Constitution
of the United States, and by jings we
don't believe he can do it.

An old Mans Lesson !.

is dependent on his relatives, and they
don't like the enforced task of taking
care of him. HAD I saved 10 cents a
day during my younger years" he said,
1T would have been Independent
might have saved a dollar day during
all my working career and not stinted
myself In the least" This old mans
experience Is worth thinking about.
The trouble with American men Is that
they waste dimes while looking for a
million dollars. At the end of life
they have neither the dime nor the
million dollars. More than half the
men who die are buried by charity.

TAKING QUA TARIFF PRINCIPLES

According to his statement on the
tariff bill Republican President show
himself sounder on the tariff from the
Democratic viewpoint than some men in
Congress who were sent there by DEM
ocratic votes. The hired beneficiaries
of the protected interests in Massachu-
sets are appalled, at the free trade
sentiments Of the President" AS a
matter of fact the President does not
go as far as the old historic position
of the Democratic party on the tariff
question but he goes great deal far
Their than some of the Democratic Rep
resentatives and Senators.
President Taft In his tariff statement
referred to American energy and en-
terprise' and to the effectiveness OF
American labor" s
The President intimates that these
characteristics. coupled with the splen-
did natural resources of the country.
will bring prosperity, regardless of a
high protective tariff. In fact, whom
properly directed, he intimates that

tainly sounds like heresy. coming from
q Republican President 1t is good
American doctrine; 1t is good Demo-
cratic doctrine.
Democratic leaders a few years ago
were foolish enough to let the Repub-
lican party. a party which had been ia
nous for standing for cheap money,
steal its historic principle of sound
money 1t would be double misfor-
tune for Democratic leaders, through
weakness and carelessness, to permit
the Republicans to steal the principle
of a tariff for revenue, which has come
down with the party through all its
years history and service.
Let US firmly keep what we have.
