 Senator Morgan predicted that the years to come would find Alabama unified as 1t never can be otherwise by the digging of a canal uniting the Tennessee and Ala bama rivers. He prophesied that cement would be loaded at Selma and transported by water to Knoxville, and that 1t might come in his own day but certainly within the lives of many who listened to him.
 There was present at the same time with Senator Morgan an expert, one easily accorded among the best Informed men on cement subjects in the united States He declared that cement could be made in Alabama and at the beds near Eppes for 10 cents per barrel less than at the big works in the Lehigh valley of Pennsylvania He declared that the bed in question would operate plant turning out only 1900 barrels per day Tor OO0 years, and that one acre dug only 10 the depth of 35 feet would furnish material to supply such plant for year Those who heard both Senator Morgan and the expert were deeply impressed and 1t Is likely that the company will be organ ized at early date

They Are Paying Up.


 Several days ago mention was made in these columns that many merchants and others in the state were violating the in- surance laws, no doubt because of ignor- ance. As a result of the publicity there have been many to meet the regulations The violation consisted in placing fire business in companies not licensed in the state and failing to report 1t to the in- surance commissioner. The law allows risks to be placed this way, but 1t must be reported and a tax of one-halt or per cent paid the state on premiums IT there are losses the state is to get Tn addition ner cent on all amounts paid. It having been brought to the attention of Commissioner McDavid and Deputy Commissioner Harry R. Shorter, more publicity was given the statute As re- suit there have been a number of checks received within the last ten days, one for S21 coming in today.

Labor Very Scarce.

Local lumber dealers are in the ''hole" so to speak about labor. It has become almost impossible to get men to take care of the mills and there are orders enough on every mill mans books in the territo- ry to keep him running full tilt for sew eral weeks. What Is to be done is a question The mills at Maplesville have put in Italians. and they are giving sat isfaction Ii Is very likely that others will do the same thing. The officers of the Florida Lumber Co.,. with headquarters in Chicago, have de- cided to make a try for some kind of imported labor, probably Italian, for the reason that it can not get men to do the work. This company is known as the hardwood combination and has big mills all over the south. having acquired re- gently a tract of immense proportions in Louisiana.
 An instance of the trouble about labor is found in the case of a cooperage plant here. It has the machinery for 100 men and can not keep over forty. Another showing is the demand for .convicts. Every day the state department has ap- plications for men, and they know that they will have to pay far more than S1 a day if they get them.

Montgomery. October 19.-(Special. 1.-The Governor today granted a parole to Will Scott, now serving a sentence in the Ala bama penitentiary, that he might go to his home in Livingston and testify at the trial of his brother. Robert Scott. to come off next week. The order of the Gov ernor reads:
 This man is hereby paroled i'll order to allow him to be present and testify as a witness in the case against his brother now pending in the circuit court of Sumter county, said parole to begin Saturday, October 21. 1905, and end Mon day, October 30, 1905'
