FINE SHOWING.
FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF EMS
LEY SHOWS A BIG INCREASE IN
DEPOSITS.

Times may be dull, but the statement
to the comptroller of the currency of the
First National bank of Ensley does not
show It, This bank is one of the solid
financial institutions of the district and
is growing stronger every day. The peo-
pie of Ensley appreciate the conservative
business methods of this bank and take
pride in its upbuilding. The statement
shows an increase in deposits of over
$1,000 since the last call, three months ago.
This is a remarkable showing, when the
dull summer months Sre taken into con-
sideraton.
Gordon DuBose. president of the bank
Is a young business man of fine ability
and has fully demonstrated his fitness Tor
the responsible position he holds.
j. w. Minor, vice president, is widely
known throughout the district. He is a
man of large means and is connected with
many industries, all of which are pros
porous.
Peyton Eubank cashier is very popular
and Is considered one of the best bank
men in the country,
II. j. Cummings. the assistant cashier.
is one of the rising young men of this
district. His strict attention to business
and affable manner has made him alike
popular with the officials of the bank
and its customers.
Ensley has just reason to feel proud
of the First National bank of that city.

citizens of a city in a municipal cleo
ton than in any other. The government
of a city comes nearer home and more
directly affects life, health and property
than either the fe 4eral or state govern
ments
The administra ton of city affairs In
the matter of sanitation reaches every
freside home and individual in the mu-
nicipaity
The health conditions of Birmingham
have greatly improved in late years And
this is attributable almost exclusively
to the fact of the attention given to san
itary measures by our city auth9rities.
1t is needless to speak of how important
a wise administration is to the financial
credit of the city.
Property rights are largely dependent
too, on what is done by the municipal au-
thorities towards advancing the best in
terests of the tax payers. We are nearing
a primary for me selection of men to
fill important city Offices A nomination
is equivalent to an election and this be-
ing so the primary for the selection OF
nominees is really as important If not
more so, than the election itself
If there are only two candidates in
primary there is no difference between
plurality and a majority. consequently
If there be man. candidates there now
are. no man should be declared the nom
inee who is favored with less than a
majority of votes of those participating
in the election. Minorities should never
rule, yet they can 40 so very easily under
the plurality plan, ant the danger IS
greater in proportion to the increased
numJer of the candidates. 1t is better to
have two primaries than to stifie the
voice of the majority of the voter. Every
tax payer should interest himself In this
matter and prevail on our city executive
committee to give us two primaries.
