l MORNING THOUGHT
Beyond the Tide
DY '. AGAnvFN NICH0Ls.

Beyond One of the most reiiev- the Tide. ing inspirations that
 eyer came over me was while Ssnn., standing md o on the beach looking on the reaches of the Pacific. And the thought came to mel Beyond the sea of Time--beyond life's Golden Gate-- there E somewhere 2 land of light and CTS no tears shall ever come. Sin and sorrow shall not disturb It's per. feet bliss. In that ,and the eye is fire ss the nss,snt hssst is san sams Oh suffering one tide shall bear us on its crest. And You'll see your Pilot face to face
 When you have crossed the bar. On .thss tomb Of Joseph H.. of Aus tria. in the royal cehnetery at Vienna. Is this pitiful epitaph prepared by the K:rg himself: Here lies a monarch who. with the best intentions, never truth were known today, a great many epitaphs would be scratched out and this one put in their place.
 overtoppink the hills of conscious self-abassment lies the summer land of life. ..s
 Oliver Cromwell Is said to have ob- served: Tt is good thing to strike thing to make the iron hot by strik- ing" The successful man is he who to great extent creates his own oc- easions. Instead of waiting for things to turn up, he turns things up while he waits. That's the sort of genius this rapid age calls for.
 On sun-dial which stands on the pier at Brighton these words are in- scrfbed: Iris always morning sonle- where in the world" Why should we grow so weary of life when clouds hang low and the sun will not shine? away @ There will come breezes G frelrbt- .S ed with the breath of flowers Then we will forget the chill and damp of the low lands. Hurry across the valley --the hill lies beyond.

 The Montgomery Advertiser cee- brated it's eightieth anniversary Janu- ary 1st by the employees giving an annual dinner to the employers. It was also the fftieth anniversary' of Major W. w. Screws connection with the paper. It was a gala day In the history of The Advertiser
 For many years The Advertiser has been recognized as one of the greatest newspapers in this country. It furn- ishes the people of Alabama the news in readable form and its news ser vice covers the state almost like the dew. The Advertiser Is as far from yellow journalism and sensationalism as the East is from the West The editorial policy of the paper has at all times been able and fearless.
 Although eighty years old there are no evidences of senility about The Advertiser. Here Is wishing that "Grandma" may enjoy many more happy anniversaries.

senator owen, of Oklahoma think

Senator owen, of Oklahoma thinks he has discovered a way to suppress the trust evil, viz: by having a law to prevent a trust from realizing more chan ten per cent profit on its capital. If the Senator can discover a way to learn how much profit great cor poration makes, and then find a way to regulate it, he will deserve to take rank among the great discovers of the age.

 Alabama iR demoaratio and voted democratic in the November election. The Democrats of Alabama have no apologies for the big vote they gave MT. Bryan and the little vote they gave Mir. Taft. It the election were held again tomorrow the result would be the same.
 We do not agree with Editor Rufus N. Rhodes. of The Birmingham News, when he said in his speech inviting MT Taft to visit Birmingham that the men of tbe South regard the result of the last election as A benediction from God Almighty Himself to the people of the South Over their own protest" We demur this indictment of the judgment and common -sense Of the democracy of the South.
 The Democrats of Alabama will treat MT. Taft with the utmost eourte- sy when he becomes the guest within the gates of her greatest city. but they will not regard him in the light of a benediction. The South can only hope for its just deserts from a Democratic president.

 The letter of President Forbes of the Montgomery Commercial Club, to Pres- ldent Russel, of the Mobile and Ohio Railroad, regarding the new passenger service out of Montgomery to Tusca- ioosa, was both timely and cordial. It is indicative of the relations which are going to exist all over the South In ths near future. There is no. reason why the railroads should be fought and con- stantly dogged simply because they are railroads. They should by all means be made to conform to the law to the very letter like all other corporations and individuals, but it is folly and suicidal to wage a war on them because they are railroads. Without corporations there can be very little business and the time is fast approaching when the railroads and the public will 20 hand in hand in the great work of building up our country and developing those magnificent and untold resources with which God hath so bountifully supplied us.

He Is Charged wfth Taxes New In Cen- tTcveFsy. fs Lafayette. Ala. Jan. q, 1909. Editor The Advertiser: 8is note from The Daily, Advertiser of this date wherein it gives q summary of the State Examiners reports for the year 1908, that am charged with an amount due the State of e20s .33.
 Without an explanation it would seem that this amount indicates shortage in the accounts of my administration. but on the contrary. this amount iA for certain lees that the Attorney General, after deliberation, has decided were due by certain corporations doing business in this county, which amounts have been and am still epdeavoring to collect and remit to the State. As the corres- pondence In the premises and on file in, this office will show. these corporations have employed counsel, who advise they are not liable for the amount in uues- ton; thus you note this seeming short age is but an amount in controversy that will likely necessitate litigation to settle, and Is at this time in contro- yersy between these particular corpora tiops and this office and the payment resistedy by them.
