One who labors eight hours per
jday with the minds of the young
American, can do little else but
ask questions. And questions are
not news. This our excuse for the
dullness of tnis weeks paper.
The New York Sun says: “The
secret execution of criminals is a
horror to every sane and intelli
gent mind,” The Sun is eminent
ly correct. The execution of crim
inals in secret is the encourage
ment of brutality in the execution
ers, and a temptation to brutal
prison wardens. Let the execution
be public, or at least partially so,
find a sense of decency compels
the executioners to avoid such bru
tality as lhat of last Tuesday in
New York. In public executions
they at least assume an outward
semblance of humanity and decen
cy.—News.
Yes, and there is, we think, an
other good reason why executions
should be public. Criminals are
excuted for an example and if it
is for an example to the public, the
whole public should have an oppor
tunity of seeing the execution.
The Sub-Alliance at Piedmont,
Calhoun county Ala., has passed
resolutions condemning the sub
treasury scheme as wild and vis
ionary and not calculated to bring
the relief to the farmers which
they have so long sought.
Just noiv there is considerable
activity on the part of the Alliance
leaders in this section of the state,
their sole object being apparently
to elevate to office certain dema
gogues who have no qualifications
for office other than a member
ship in the Alliance and the fact
that they advocate all of its wild
cat schemes. The alliance in Cal
houn county, however, is not wil
ling toJ|accept as Gospel truth
every word uttered by an Alliance
man, but investigate these ques
tions for itself and then approves
or condemns any or all proposi
tions. The members do not jump
every time the “bosses” crack the
whip, nor do they bow in humble
ness before them. —Timeg.

in Talladega county, near this city
had a narrow escape, as did also
his daughter a few days ago. He
hadniade’a lot of blackberry wine
and put it in a whiskey barrel,
which he bought from a saloon
keeper for that purpose. His
daughter got sick and ihe physi
cian advised him to give her some
wine, which he did. After drink
ing the wine the girl grew rapidly
worse and in order to see if it was
the wine which caused it Brown
took a small drink of it. He was
similarly affected. A physician
was at once summoned, and by tne
use of emetics saved their lives,
though had he been a few minutes
later he could not have done it.
The barrel containing the wine was
burated open and about two pounds
of tobacco, together with a lot of
other narcotics and poisuous stuff,
was found in it. —Chattanooga
Times,
No doubt but what 100 proof
whiskey has been sold from the
above barrel. Ed.

Judge J. A. Warder, cf Chatta
nooga Tenn., took his own life on

night by deliberately placing the
muzzle of a revolver directly in
his ear and pulling the trigger.
'I he readers of this well remember
