Is to their interest to elect new officers officers who will more efficiently care for their interests. When a municipality gets behind in its obligations and it's affairs are badly managed, as is the case in Bir- mingham, 1t is the business of the voters to elect new men to office to have charse of the administration of It's affairs The tax rate within the last six years has been doubled. the valuation of property largely enhanced, yet with the immensely increased revenue the city is running be- hind as much or more since the increased tax rate and the increased valuation. will the machine explain this to the peo- pie?
 Does any right-minded, conservative citizen who thinks for himself believe that the affairs of the city of Birmingham have been handled to the best advantage for the past seven years2 Does he not be- lieve that the city in it's preesnt pros porous condition should be ACCUMULATE ING A FUND INSTEAD OF GETTING BEHIND AT THE RATE OF FROM TWENTY TO TWENTY-FIVE THOU SAND DOLLARS EVERY YEAR?
 Is the strong desire of the machine for a continuation in power due to any con sideration for the best interests of the people? Is it not rather due to desire to continue its own selfish course-TO CON TINUE TO WAX FAT AT THE PUBLIC CRIB?
 Civic pride may be at a low ebb and the puplic conscience may be blunted by reason of the long reign of rings and clidues but when aroused 1t vii become a mighty tide. sweeping selfishness, greed and corruption out of the places of au- thority.
 Those voters who would, through careless promise or for some light perso- nal reason, cast their ballots for candi- date who has no chance of election, should pause and think what might be the consequence. No one can afford to run the risk of allowing a man to be elee- ted to the office of mayor who has the support of this machine. Votes thrown away merely as c compliment to some candidate, whose defeat is foregone conclusion, might result in defeating the wishes of the very men who would act in this careless way.
 Men who are to vote In this primary I call upon you to think seriously of what you are about to do. Stand up and speak out against conditions under which the affairs of the city are becoming more hopelessly involved. Stand and vote for a better order of things; for clean govern ment; for the application of business principles in the conduct of municipal affairs Vote for George B. Ward and thus help bring about conditions under which our city may prosper and the pest interest of its people be jealously guard ed
 am prompted to make this address to the voters of Birmingham to show my reasons for supporting MT. Ward My convictions on this subject are profound and based on a sincere purpose to prlnS our public affairs on higher and proaa- ed level. I honestly, candidly and sin cerely believe MT Ward is the man to help us in this effort.

Communicated APPEAL BY
 WARDS MANAGER Demand of the Hour is Reform in Municipal Affairs GOING DEEPER IN DEBT In Debt From Every Year, It Is Time for People to sestir Themselves
 and See That Abuses
 Are Abolished.
To inc Voters of Birmingham

To the Voters of Birmingham;
 If there ever was a time in the history of Birmingham when the affairs of the citv deserved the careful attention of all who have it's best interests at heart that time is now. While the season of pros perfty which Birmingham, in common with other cities, has enjoyed durlng the past few years, has witnessed graulylns industrial and commercial progress on all sides. and while private interests have developed and expanded, we have wit messed the affairs of our city go from bad to worse Heavy debts have become heavier and thinking men. in the face or ever increasing expenditures, must pause and ask themselves, "To what are we coming?" There is but one answer. h. deed there can be but one answer Tn every case where expenditures steadiy exceed receipts, and this answer is bank ruptcy."
 Then is 1t not time that the principles of business, the principles upon which every successful enterprise is conducted are applied to the management or mu- nicipal affairs? If the time is to come when the receipts shall be made to pay the expenses of the city and allow some thing for the reduction of the heavy  wise and conservative management management that shall be free from the elements of jobbery and favoritism.
 It is with you to say whether or not we shall have a change in the manage ment of our municipality. In the primary of November 21, the question of good government will be in your hands. It will be with you to declare in favor of change or to signify by your ballot that you are satisfied to see the debts of your city steadily increased under a careless, inefficient and unsatisfactory system. MA CHINE GOVERNMENT HAS WRECK ED MANY CITIES. IT NEVER IM- PROVED THE CONDITION OF ONE. The machine, which has long grown fat while the affairs of the city were neg lected, is behind Mr. Simmons in his race for mayor. This same machine is work ing night and day in a desperate effort to defeat MT. Ward To the intelligent man the solution of this condition is found in the fact THAT THE MACHINE BELIEVES IF CAN HANDLE MIR. SIMMONS and IT KNOWS IT CANNOT HANDLE MIR. WARD.
 The organization of a corporation be- gins with the stockholders, who adopt by laws for the conduct of the enterprise and elect a board of directors, who in turn elect as officers president, secretary and treasurer, and such others as are necessary to manage the business. In municipality the people are the stock holders and they elect directors, whom they call aldermen. and president. whom they call mayor, and choose such other officials as are necessary for the manage ment of their affairs. When the onicers of corporation such as this become ois- loyal or negligent and mismanage the ai- fairs of the corporation, 1t becomes tne duty of the stockholders (the peopie) anu

MANY CANE ILLS SOLD.
Industry In Columbus, Ga, Is Con-
 stantIy on t,.e Increase.

Columbus, Ga., November 10.-(Special.) The two local iron works, the Columbus Iron Works company and Goldens Foun- dry and Machine company, have sold larger number of cane mills this season than for any previous year in the his- tory of these companies.
 This shows the great development of cane culture in this section of Georgia and Alabama. Several years ago the establishment of a syrup refining plant lere by the Williams Manufacturing company did a great deal to encourage the growing of cane in this section and later the Cargill- Wight company has also erected a plant here thus making the local market for Georgia ane Ala bama syrup still better
 The Columbus Iron Works company and Goldens Foundry and Machine com rany report that the cane mills sold are much larger than those formerly bought ny their customers. Formerly nearly all the mills in use were small ones, operated by one or two horses. These small mills are now in the minority.
