HEED FOR BLAckMAIL.
Justice of the Peace and Detective Got
 Money From Priest.

Chicago, January 31.-Isaac Hartman, justice of the peace in the village of Harvey, twenty miles from this city, Mike J. Maloney an attorney and Harry Nye, a private detective were today found guilty of blackmail and sentenced to indefinite terms in the penitentiary. It was shown during the trial that the men had extorted 5000 from the Rev. Lawrence Erhard, a Roman Catholic priest Tn charge of the Epiphany church in this city.
 Nye carrying a warrant issued by Jus tce Hartman called on the priest and threatened him with publicity in con nection with serious charges unless he paid them 5000. The Rev. Erhard de- nounced the charges as utterly false, but dreading the trouble that would follow a refusal, paid over the money. Later when an effort was made to secure 5000 additional from him, the priest mention ed the matter to some of his friends and the arrest of the men followed.

It Is Their Duty.

Before she can become truly great the south must build great cities.
 The old idea that the city was depend- ent upon the country has been exploded. The country Is just as dependent upon the city. The relations of the two are reciprocal. Neither can attain 10 the fullest measure of its development with out the assistance of the other.
 Let us make the idea a little clearer Think of the west and you think of Chicago, you cannot separate them in your mind if you would, for they are in- divisible. The magnificent city would have been impoEsible without the grand country behind 1t, and the country would have been scores of years behind in its growth but for the creation of the city
 In a word, the city Is to the country what the nerve center is to the body. It attracts surplus energy and holds it in readiness to be sent back again when ever needed.
 There may be a question as to the num- Der of great cities which the south will

be able to produce, but there is no doubt that Birmingham will be one of them Location and natural advantages make that sure, but the growth of Birming- ham Is largely in the hands of the peo- pie of Alabama.
 There is a distinct obligation upon the people of the agricultural districts to as- sist in the development of Birmingham. It Is a duty which they owe to their section, their state and their children Birmingham with half a million popula- ton will mean that Alabama has become one of the most important common wealths in the union. Birmingham with a million people will mean that the south is again a mighty influence in national affairs.
 Therefore all considerations of patriot ism and state pride urge the people of Alabama to aid in the up-building of Birmingham by investing their money in
The Birmingham age-herald., 1906-02-01

Birmingham real estate or in tae com mereial or industrial enterprises of this city, or by depositing it in Birmingham banks But there are also purely selfish reasons which should have their infiu- ence. Money invested in Birmingham will yield large returns. Without ex-ae- geration, it is the place Of all places in the south where the danger of losses is reduced to the minimum and where the margins of profit are widest and most assured.
 The people of Alabama will make no mistake in fostering Birmingham in the manner which we have Indicated but they will commit sin against the south, the state and their own interest if they do not participate in making Birmingham what this city should be the metropolis of the heart of the great cotton fields oi the world.
