A GREAT DEMOCRAT.

Montgomery AdvertlSer)
 In the passing of Roger O. Mills of Texas, a great Democrat was removed from among his fellow men, MT. Mills place in history is secure. His name is indissolubly associated with one of the greatest chapters in the long history of the Democratic party. He was a party leader when the Democratic party had the confidence of the people of the country and when it was winning victories. He was a party leader when the Democratic par ty was revising and reducing the tar if. He belonged to that strong com pany of Democratic statesmen, who in Congress stood forth and, fought for the true principles of tariff reductions and for the direct relief of the people.
 MT. Mills was a Democrat without a prefix or a suffix. He was Demo- crat and that one word defined his political faith. He did his work in the days before the party went off after fads and fancies, 8 boot1ess chase from which it is now returning. He and his fellow Democrats did not find it necessary to pick up every SUD- posedly popular fad and hyphenate it with the Democratic party. Democ racy. to him, was political faith which embraced every remedy for governmental ills, not a policy to be trimmed and changed to fit popular fad.
 He was a man of ability, of char acter and of unquestioned integrity. It was such men as he who have made the story of Democracy glorious.

factor in building up the outlying territory is not fully appreciated to- day. Nor is it realized that the pro- norlnced trend toward the country has caused a sharp reaction in the cities. In New York for instance the building of fine private residences which five Or six years ago reached tremendous proportions, has all but ceased because the people of wealth aro exchan ging their town residences for country places. Such functions as dances, par ties and entertainments are no long, CT held in the cities but take place in the country residences where there is more room and eqIally pleasant sur roundings.
 In about the same proportion the leasing of fine apartments in the city has increased, the apartment occupying a secondary position in the home life of the people of wealth before the an- tomObile transferred preference from the city house to the country house before the long and tedious journey by train was reduced to an dnvigorating spin by automobile in the open.

AzMMA n tomorrow the Democratic majority will be face
4w M Y to face with the responsibility OF initiating
NAW 4 and controlling legislation so far as the House
4 Y YIN v N is concerned. That fact in itself gives TO the
n VIM nm session a peculiar interest. The country waits
to see how the issues will be met. and with what
fidelity the victors of the last election will keep their pledges.
It il not expected the session will be long. The President asks
nothing moro Of it than the passage Of the Canadian reciprocity
msaures. Many members Of Congress will be eager to get away from
Washington before the coming Of the heat Of summer. The big in
tusHs that profit by protection will wish the session to pass without
any alteration Of the tariff.
Thus the Democratic leaders will be tempted from various points
= make no effort at this time to repeal the taxes imposed by the tariff
on the necessities Of life, or to inquire into the activity Of the army
on the Mexican border. They will make a mistake, however, II they
yield either point. However short the session may be, Democracy
should not let It pass without demonstrating n vigorous policy in
the interest Of the people.

much longer time will be required to restore its fertility.
These are some Of the bad effects Of being such q strenuous
people. We cannot play with moderation any more than we can do
business in that way. British youth in their damper climate can
play cricket or football on a green without killing the grass. but
American ball games appear to be destructive Of everything in the
neishborhood. The result is we must set our Fairgrounds a long wy
from our parks, or find some way to compel both PLAYERS and snec.
fat0r' to respect the turf and have a care for the shrubs and trees.
