lie said again he thought it would be very un7ortunate for the Birmingham district, and particularly for Birmingham should the combination ever get control of the local companies, for the reason that when zard times come, as they sure ly will at some time in the future, and when ti1e prices of iron and steel prod ucts suffer a material reduction-though It might be but temporary-the great con cern might economze by suddenly clos ing up everything In the Birmingham dis trict.
 If they had to close down any large DOT Iion of their plants or mines the Bir- mingham district, being farthest away, would probably be first to suffer a shut down. Birmingham would naturally suf- fer materially from complete stagnation of iron and coal production.
 He, however, was confident that the new coordination did not desire the Bir- n.--gilam companies and that there would be no effort whatever to take them in He believed the new concern had just as much as it wanted.

 the County Convention

 tionaI conventlon-The Plan ',
 of the Primary.

Interest in the approaching Democratic primary election is growing and every indication Is that a large vote will be boiled in Jefferson County next satur- day. The announcement of number of candidates for delegate from this county to the constitutional convention probably has caused the eincreased interest that is now manifesting itself.
 Prior to this week only three or four men had announced that they would be in the race to represent the greatest county in the State in the forthcoming constitutional convention. and the gen eral apathy that existed most probably for delegates to the constitutional con vention from this county are Charles W. Ferguson, Circuit Court solicitor for this district; James Weatherly lawyer; Frank P. O'Brien, former sheriff and present representative in the Legisla lature; John W. ONeill, president of the Board of Trade; James H. Leath, repre- sentative in the Legislature; T. ]. Corn wall of Bessemer banker; J. B. Aaird of Pratt City, lawyer.
 The name of Dr. R. M. Cunningham Is mentioned as a probable candidate to represent the Senatorial district of Jef- ferson.
 Judge A. c. Howze is announced as a candidate to represent the ninth Con gressional district in the constitutional convention.
 Capt Frank S. White, chairman of the Morgan campaign committee last spring. and Robert J. Lowe, chairman of the State Democratic Executive Committee, are announced as candidates to represent the state at large in the convention.
 Chairman Robert H. Thach of the Jeff ferson County Democratic EXecu- tive Committee has had circu lars printed giving instructions regarding the plan of the primary to be held next Saturday. These he will send to every beat in order that every Democratic voter may thoroughly understand the methods Wy which delegates to the county conven- tim are to be selected This circular also contains a list of the beats and the num- Der 'of delegates in the county conven- tion 10 which each beat will be entitled.
 TheName and numbers of the beats and the delegates they are entitled to are as follows:

NO CHARGE
In Miners Wages for March-Price of
 Iron.

There will be no change in the coal min CTS wages in this district until after Ap- Til at least. It was believed the ad- vance in the price of iron in February would result in an advance in wages of the coal miners but an investigation of the sales books of the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad Company shows that the average selling price of iron in Feb ruary was less than S10 per ton, and therefore does not entitle the miners to any advance for this month.
 The wages they receive now Is 50 cents a ton.
