NEVER SHAKE HANDS.

Prof. Frank IL. Thompson, who &C.
cupies the Chair OF Education in the
University OF Colorado. has joined issue
with Herr Knopf as to the relative
danger of kissing and shaking hands
in the spread of disease. sometime
ago Knopf warned the people of this
country that there was death in KISS
ing, and now comes Prof. Thompson
with this declarations: "There is moth
ing nnhygienic in kissing compared
with ~handshaking. Nearly every hand
enc1oses within the recesses of the
nails or tissues millions of germs
which are communicated by the act OF
shaking hands
We do not know anything about
Knopf, but we extend to Prof. Thomp-
son the assurances of our distinguished
consideration. He has struck Il popu-
lar chord. There is too much hand
shaking anyhow In his country.

JAMES ]. VANCE.

In the return of DR.. James !. Vance
to Nashville, where seventeen years
ago he was pastor OF the First
Presbyterian church, the position
which he re-assumes. the South has
gained a notable acquisition. For
some years DR.. Vance has been pastor
of a large church at Newark, New Jcr-
sey, where he has achieved remarkable
success, and the love and admira-
ton of his flock. His books on
religious subjects are known all over
the country. He is n preacher of sur
passing power, still a young nan full
of vigor and strength. 1t was only
last Sunday that DR.. Vance was in
stalled in his Nashville charge and
when the congregation there was
called upon to say whether or not it
would be loyal to the new leader, the
unanimous response brought tears to
the eyes of many of those present.
Southern preachers who go North
rarely come back, but tho exception

rIAr ExrRA SESSION.

The fault appears to be not in the
law, hut in the enforcement of the
law; at least, such is the conclusion
one would reach after reading Gov
crnor Mann's letter to Mr.. Tucker in
reply to his request for al eNtraordi-
nary session of the Legislature for the
purpose of amending the primary efec-
tion law. The law as it stands pro-
vides for the punishment of those who
shall engage in any Irregular or cor
rupt practices at party primaries in
the same manner and 20 the same eN-
tent as such irregular practices would
he punished at general and local cleo
lions. The supreme Court of the
state, in the case of Jackson Wise,
practically decided that such is the law,
and would doubtless confirm that de-
cision II the recent Irregularities in
the Norfolk District should be brought
before it in such way that a direct
decision could be made. 1t ought to
be practicable for Mr.. Tucker and those
in that district who appear to be very
much aroused on the subject to have
the ease presented SO that the Court
could get a fair chance at it. This
would cost far less than an extra ses-
sion Of the Legislature, and, if it
should fail, the Legislature at Its reg
ular session in January, 1912, could
deal with the subject as necessity
might REQUIRE.

A POOR

Norris Brown. WHO q few people
recollect is Senator from Nebraska, is
very anxious to have three-fourths of
the States ratity the constitutional
amendment permitting the laying OF a
Federal income tax. So far hut eight
States have ratified this proposition,
and five have refused to ratiry 1t. Sem
ator Brown is optimistic, nevertheless,
and is of opinion that four or the five
states that have rejected the amend
ment will reverse themselves when the
next sessions OF their legislatures take
place. The five States in question are:
New York. Rhode Island, Virginia.
Louisiana, and Massachusetts.
New York is unlikely to change It's
action, for the tax Will strike New
York a harder blow, by far, than any
other State. Massachusetts will hardly
reverse Its action, though Governor.
Elect Foss Is In favor OF the proposed
amendment. Virginia, we feel sure,
VIII not record itself in favor OF the
change. Louisiana VIII also remain as
IL Is on this question. Alabama, MIS-
sissippi, Georgia, South Carolina, Ken
turky and Maryland have ratified the
amendment, but the eNa1nple of these
States will have little, If any, intlu.
ence on other Southern States, 1t Is
said that the amendment has no chance

The nAcKsLIp1NG OF BIRMINGHAM

Birmingham promised to be the model
prohibition city after Alabama passed
n Statewide prohibition law. Its rep
utation for obedience to the mandates
of the law was unexcelled for a time.
Intense efforts were made at first to
enforce the law. The semblance of
prohibition deceived many for some
time. There was a wide-awake law
and order league; the city authorities
were in sympathy with the strict adj
ministration of the law. Raids We're
made. Offenders were punished.
Yet the reaction, the inevitable reac-
ton that follows in the wake of pro-
hibition laws, came. Hundreds of
places blossomed under the name OF
literary" clubs, where membership was
a mere matter of Introduction and the
possession of a card, for which the
holder paid nothing. In the hotels GER
tain %bellboys, known BY numbers. were
always ready, day or night. to serve
any sort of liquor to the inmates OF
! the hotel rooms. No one had to inquire
to ind a bar.
Prohibition has proved itself a farce
in Birmingham. Mere boys who could
not have bought liquor at the old-timc
bars revelcd in their cups under the
liberal reign OF Statewide prohibition.
Recently a citizens committee, called
into existence by rumors of fragrant
violations of the law. employed detec-
tives to investigate the situation. These
detectives lately reported that "blind
tigsrs have given way to full-tiedged
open saloons They charge that the
men who sell liquor know when to es-
pect the city sleuths.' Gambling
houses, they report, run openly.
Statistics may be brought out and
paraded about the Alabama city, but
they cannot rebut the plain truth. 1t
is a condition. not a theory. that must
be faced.
