IN HOTEL LOBBIES
Regarding Mir. Hearst.

Whatever one may think of William Randolph Hearst's special brand of jour nalism, he should not commit the error of imagining that he is not a man cf infinite resources and of an ability of no mean order said politician last night. T know Hearst fairly well. having been associated with him for some time no: many years ago. and in many respects he l is boy wonder He is only 43 years l old, and while he has been looked upon in New York and elsewhere as a political joke and a journalistic freak ever since his advent into the newspaper world in the east, he has certainly made the poll tielans, as well as the people sit up and take notice
 He has never attracted any attention in Congress for the simple reason that he has had no chance, and he knows it. He is looked upon in that body as a man without party, a political pariah, even if he desired to be heard
 Hearst is today the most popular dem ocrat among the rank and file of the party in the state of New York, and the indications are now that he will be the next governor of the state. do not be- lieve that he will ever be president, or will ever be even the nominee of any consid- rable party for the office, but he is a man to be reekoned with just the same. ]
 s''When Hearst wants anything" con- tinued the politician, "he goes after it. and we must give him credit for the fact that If he doesn't bring it back with him the people who do get it know that some one else has been after 1t.
 "As an example: Several weeks before the blowing up of the Maine, which led to declaration of war against Spain, Hearst who had for months been advo- eating in his papers an intervention in behalf of Cuba, decided to have the war whether the United States was willing or not. As one of his preparations to get the news he sent Frederick Remington, the artist, to Havana to be ready to fur nish the pictures Remington loafed around Havana for weeks and no sign of war Finally he cabled Hearst that there would be no war, and asked permission to return to New York. Hearst immediately cabled back: You stay and furnish the pictures. I will furnish the war And he did
 ''As soon as war was declared he cabled his London correspondent, MT. James Creelman, to arrange to purchase Brit lsh steamer, authorizing him to pay as much as s50OOO0 for it. and in case the Spanish fleet attempted to pass through the suez canal to hurry the vessel to the canal and blow it up to obstruct the pas sage of the fleet. And the arrangements were actually made, although subsequent l circumstances made It unnecessary to carry out the plan. But he would have done it, and then explained it afterward.
 Any man who is willing to fight a. nation alone in a real war cannot safely be eliminated from mere political cam paign after he has set his heart on a cer- tain thing"

ADRIFT WITH THE TIMES.

1 HE wanderlust is a strange com N plaint. It is becoming more pre-

You may see it's victims elinglng to the trucks of freight cars or lettering in the Hobbies Of continental hotels. working a passage across seas in cattle steamers or lolling in the saloons of ocean liners.

The changing seasons find him still on the go, ever looking for something new and finding nothing to appease his already jaded ap- petite. The years roll on, but to increase his restlessness. He can not stop for there Is always a strange desire to see the old places again, to note what changes have occurred, to compare the present with the past-to hurry back again before 1t Is too late. This desire to return to the spots which he has once visited is almost as strong in the wan derer as his craving for new scenes. It Is not satisfactory life and 1t cultivates eynieism. The end may be in London, Tn Rome, in Berlin in New York or in Bonn bay

Farmers Wanted.

Land Agent M. V. Richards of the Southern railway Is right when he says Birmingham should make an effort to attract small farmers to Shades valley and to other unoccupied lands within twenty-five miles of the city hall. We should strive to grow near this city the vegetables, fruits, poultry and dairy products that we now buy in other states, some of them far away.
 Our landJ are good, cheap and avail able. They will respond to careful cul- tivation. and the markets and trans portation facilities are we'll established. There is nothing of tentative nature in the proposition.
 The only question relates to the source from which the small farmer is to be drawn. Some think we should look to the northwest, while others think sunny italy Is the better place from which to draw new home seekers. But why not try both? Why not in duce, if possible. a steady influx of both natives and foreigners. We sure iy cannot have too many whites in the south. We need all that will come, for only one third of Alabama is cultivated and all our industries feel the labor famine. Let us try to get newcomers from any and all possible sources.

reelection of Congressman Allen in the Portland district is in doubt.
 The Maine election will encourage democrats in all the close and con tested congressional districts of other states to fight determinedly with a view to a control of the next House of Representatives. The state is a great one, for a democratic House would be widely regarded as a turn in the tide. and Mr. Bryan would every where be considered the next occupant of the White House.

ORIGIN OF ICE CREAM.
the London Chronicle.

From the London Chronicle.
 Though the ancient Greeks and Ro- mans used ice for table purposes to get through even hotter weather than we have been having lately, they know noth- ing of ices" These were introduced Into France from Italy about 166O and known at first as "fromages glaces.' iced cheeses, although they were made of strawberries, apricots, and so forth, and contained not drop of cream. From 1762 the use of "glaces. in the plural was sanctioned by the Academy, but not before 1925 did tune glace force its way into recognized ac- ceptance. Ice" are referred to from time to time in the eighteenth century in Eng fish peoples letters from abroad. Iced creams" however, were known as early as the year when William of Orange came over and by the middle of the eighteenth century 'Ice cream figured in cookery books.

HOW THE PRESS STANDS.

From the Mobile Register.
 We have yet to find a single southern paper outside of Virginia which reflects the attitude said to be held by Sen ator Bailey, John sharp Williams and some other southern members of Con ess.-Springield Republican.
 That shows lack of due diligence. There is no southern newspaper, save one, that has expressed approval of government ownership, and that one thinks that we need not bother about 1t because it can not be had for many years to come.
