customed to our charming staff that there is no feeling of strangeness about girl tellers where ordinarily expects to find men. The feminine organization has developed gradually and has proved em- inentiy satisfactory Our innovation really began with the employment of Miss Page. She applied to President Will bur for n position and brought a letter of introduction that highly praised her ability as a bookkeeper. At that time the savings and commercial departments were operated together. We happened to have a place open, and MT. Wilbur de- cided to give the young lady a trial as a bookkeeper.
 "She was so quiet, neat, conscientious and accurate that she won the respect and good will of the bank officials from the start. and when another bookkeeper was needed we concluded to try another
 woman. Shortly afterward we need cd some one to look after our advertis- Ing. I advertised for young man for the position, explaining in the notice what the work was. We received answers from about 150 men and one from young woman Perhaps it was because my cur iosity was pioued, perhaps 1t was because of our satisfactory experience with girl boolkeeprs. at any rate, I had her call and quizzed her.
 How did you come to answer an ad- vertisement that called for a man?' I asked.
 Why, saw no reason why couldn't do the work as well as a man. was the answer.
 "On further questioning was so favor ably impressed with Miss Weidinger that I concluded to give her a trial. She has filled the place admirably. and there has been no reason to think of a change. A third young woman as bookkeeper fol- lowed naturally, and another girl was put on an adding machine.
 "When it was decided about year ago to separate the savings department from the commercial department and run it separately, the question arose, Whom shall we put in as teller?' Among the depositors having our little steel savings | banks, now nearly 2l,000, are many women and children, and that may have suggested the thought of putting one of our girls in the teller's cage. At any rate, 1 WlleI lnc SuSBcSltOi was iiduc, VII | not try Miss Pager little time was wasted in further discussion. So our first girl bookheeper was promoted to the ] position of teller. It was not long before a second teller was needed, and so satls- factory had the first young lady proved that another girl bookkeeper was pro- noted Others have been added since, and by a process of natural selection all the employees in the savings department are women. There has been only one loss during the ten months, one of our tellers recently having been taken from us by the high salary offered by a commercial house. The banks pay the girls practi- cally the same salaries as would be given men in their positions in the saw 1 ings department, and there is an increase l from time to time.
 We find the young ladies as capable | as men, and In some respects they are l preferable. They are especially adapted to handling the thousands of women and 1 children who have business with the sav- ings department

BRUNSWICK AND BIRMINGHAM,

From the Eufaula Times.
 It is rumored that more encouraging reports have been received in the city concerning the Brunswick and Birming- ham Railroad, that there Is no doubt but that our city Is on the line of the route and it will be sure to come to us, but 1t will be some time before the route Is de- termined although work Is going mer- rily on at the terminal. The people are anxiously waiting for some material evil dence then all will be satisfied.

Legislation and a Pure EIecturate.

In this campaign there is no need of aerimony or bitterness of any sort. The Democratic party did not make the New instrument a party question, although circumstances incline in that direction. The inclination is not, how ever, so controlling that man ceases to be Democrat simply because he does not like the work of the conven- tion. All are free to say "Yes" or "No" to it, and no one should be de- nounced for his action in the premises. No one should be considered the less Democrat on that account, however he vote. The ratifcationists and the nti-ratiAcationists in the party are and should remain alike Democrats. We cannot afford to split the white Democratic vote. for we are in the stream of trouble, corruption and racial dangers.
 The Age.TIerald prefers the New to the Old, because it offers possible escape from the ballot box corruption that all fear and that is bringing into the Legislature and all other official circles corruption in all it's hideous forms. When traced to it's source 1t will be found that distrust of the Leg islature is due to ballot box corrup- tion.
 When we remember that the good people of the State are bound at pres ent hand and foot by race dangers and can not rise up and throw the corruptionists out, we see at glance where we are at. Forty-five per cent of the present voters are black men. Tn the Black Belt the black majority Is heavy. Honest men cannot combine against dishonesty at the polls or In office simply because they are in the Lions Mouth. Black supremacy would be worse even. than corruption. It 
 would destroy all interests. It would be deatn.
 The New instrument offers a chance of escape If the registrations 1t pro vides for do not give the State and every county-or almost every county -afl intelligent and worthy electorate -as We believe it will-then let 1t be amended, for amendment under it will be comparatively easy. once let a white electorate be established In the State, then indeed the corruptionfsts can be driven out, ballot box deviltry stopped, and all things restored to a normal condition. The New holds out this promise. All know the Old does not All know what has been done in the Black Belt, and really at times in all other sections of the State.
 Let the reader, the voter, carefully read and reread the registration plans of the New, and then let him ask him self, "Do these plans call for a trust worthy electorate?" If they do, then the question must be considered set tied in his mind, for all know that present practices are demoralizing in the extreme. and disgraceful to us as a political community.

AN UPHOLDER.

From the Chicago Chronicle.
 Senator Cullom managed to keep the record of being first on the scene after change of Presidents. He welcomed Mir Mckinley to the White House, and MT. Roosevelt found him sitting on the doorstep. The great Illinois dispenser of pie will uphold a President as long as the President will uphold him.
