Want More Parks.

q heartily concur in the statement made by George Cooke, the landscape artist who recently visited Birmingham, when ie said that this city naturally is one of the most beautiful anywhere" said resident of the South Highlands yesterday
 ''Mr. Cookes idea is that Birmingham is extremely fortunate in having high hills at the northern and southern ends of the city. The business portion of the city is located in valley with level ground and few hills. The residence sections on the north and south are ele- vated above the city. making healthful and beautiful sites for homes.
 If, as MT. Cooke points out, more res- idence parks, such as Glenn Iris. were made it would add greatly to the beauty and variety of our residence districts. MT. Cooke came to Birmingham with a view of forming several residence parks on the South Highlands.
 Tt is to be hoped that he will succeed in providing for many parks, as nothing adds as much to the beauty of city as residence parks. Birmingham needs the work of landscape artists now to give that touch of artificial beauty, which owing to our rapid development, has been more or less neglected"

REPUBLIC IRON AND STEEL.
Company Is Planning to Pay of Back
 Dividends.

From the Wall Street Journal.
 While no action in respect to the pay ment of back dividend on the preferred stock of Republic Iron and Steel Is ex- pected until next year, it can be said that one plan is under consideration. In a convertible bond issue bearing interest at the rate of per cent, the bonds to Le converted into preferred stock on basis of par. It Is said that this plan has been suggested by John W. Gates and his associates.
 To pay off the back dividends on the preferred, which aggregate l2A per cent would require bond issue of about $2, 2,500000, and in the event of the plan going through would increase the fixed charges of the company about $12b,00O a year. Whether or not such a plan would meet with general approval on the part of the directors Is questioned.
 Stockholders claim they should receive the back dividends next year if iron and steel continue prosperous. Next year will be a prosperous one for the Repub- lie. and it Is believed the company will pay off part of the accumulated dividenas even if the bond plan agreed upon is not carried through.
 It Is claimed that the quick assets of the company are larger than ever before, and that earnings are now at the rate of s4.Oo0000 a year. while dividend re- qurements on the preferred are less than $1, 1,500.000 a year. Also that the company has $4000. GOO cash which 1t does not need at present loaned out at per cent.

Presidential Gossip.

The talent" at Washington say that MT. Roosevelt hopes to secure a third term after an interregnum of four years, and in order to do this he will name successor who will aid his ann bition in 1912. Whom the President desires to become his successor is a problem, the talent having at various times selected Taft, or Root, or Cortel- you.
 One thing, however, is certain, name ly, the disclosures in the life insurance investigations relate to campaign con tributions in last years campaign have utterly knocked MT. Cortelyou out. He is no longer in the running, for he con ducted the Roosevelt campaign, and all the testimony in the world can not convince the average voter that he was not party to unlawful campaign con tributions. He should no longer be considered an aspirant, for he and his fund stand discredited in the popular mind.
 Then, too, MT. Taft will be content if he can reach the chief justiceship. Melville w. Fuller was born in 1893. and was appointed chief justice by President Cleveland in 1888. He 's therefore 72 years old, and he may decide to go on the retired list before 1909. when he will be 76 years old.
 This would leave but MT. Root as a favorite in the running, and as things stand the talent" have named him as the winner in 1908, and MT. Roosevelt as the winner in 1912. But in all that time where will the democratic nag be? Will Dingleyism and the trusts be left in power throughout all that stretch of time, extending in fact to March 4, 1917? Surely not.
