THE WASHING
TON POST.
NOT AT ALL SATISFIED WITH THE
DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM.

The Washington Post is not enam-
ored of the platform adopted last week
by the Democratic convention. Com
menting editorially, the well known
publication says:
IF the democratic party throughout
the country shall follow the example
set by the democratic state conven-
ton of Tennessee there would be no
contest at the polls this year. The
democratic platform is not exactly a
surrender; it is a refusal to fight.
The democratic party has but a
single issue, the tariff, and the breth-
rem in Tennessee are either ashamed
of it, or afraid of it; at least they will
have nothing to do with it, leaving
the party at liberty to be a protect
ionist around the furnaces at Chatta
nooga, or a free-trader in the blue
grass of Sumner county.
The Rate Bill.
"The Tennessee democrats boast of
the rate bill and they want it for an
issue. They would as well put in their
platform a plank demanding the an
nexation of the moon for a cabbage
patch. 1t is true that the demand for
the rate bill was first made in demo
cratic platform, but is was inert, in
nocuous, until the republican president
vitalized it in message to congress,
and the bill is the legislation of a
congress overwhelmingly republican
in both houses and will be signed by
as stalwart republican president as
we ever had. However, it is in this
fix:
THE G. o. P. has this advantage,
heads I win, tails you lose. If the
thing shall prove beneficent the re-
publicans will get the credit as the
architects of it. If it shall be disas-
trous the democrats will have the re-
sponsibility as the original discover
ers of it.
TIC ' dIidIIld SdHdts
"The canal is in the Tennessee plat
form as though anybody was opposed
to that They might as well have said
that to be happy one must be good or
that it is the duty of the mercury to
the thermometer to rise higher in
July than it does in January or that
it is better for the summer solstice
to occur in June than in February.
There is not a vote in 1t. Nor are
there any votes in the planks denounc-
ing trusts, for whenever a democrat |
abuses a trust until they are blue and |
black two republicans will take the
stump and revile them until they are
blue, black and mulatto. The tariff |
is the only peg the democrats have to
stand on. If they ever gain another
victory it will be on that issue. The
republicans know this, and that is
why they have advanced to the front,
the elite of their forces. Hepburn,
Grosvenor, Dalzell, Lands, stand-pat-
tiers ALL and from them the Tennes-
see democracy has ingloriously fled.
That is not the way to make the six
tieth congress democratic. That is
not the way to win the presidency
in 1908. We doubt If that is the way
to carry Tennessee in 1906"

WHERE PAPER
FOR THE GREEN
BACK IS MADE.

The national flag flies over the
Government Mint" owned by the
Crane family at Dalton, Mass. because
all the paper for the United States
"greenbacks" is made there. 1t is
one of a group of mills in which the
Cranes have made paper for more
than a century. The founder was
Zenas Crane. Before he could get the
first mill started, he had to have a
large quantity of rags. But rags were
scarcer in those days than now. The
Italian had not then arrived, the junk
shop was unknown; and although the
rag buyer passed through the streets
of Boston once a week, he had not
yet appeared in the western part of
the State. This resulted in an appeal
to the people based on high economic
and patriotic grounds. Handbills APP
peared, with the headlines, in large
type:

has the good of her country and the

save her rags, and send them to the

paid" When the mill was ready the
rags was in abundance, and opera
ton at once, commenced. The work
ing force consisted of four men, two
girls and a small boy, with Zenas
Crane as Superintendent and chief
proprietor. The paper was made in
hand-moulds, and the output was 100
pounds a day Today there are 400
employees and the output is many tons
of the finest banknote paper.

A Beautiful Calendar.

We have received a beautiful calendar 134 x20 inches, showing a lovely girl with dark wavy hair, dressed in a fashionable lavendar dress, standing under q large tree, filled with apple blossoms. In the background there is very large, old O. lonia1 mansion, which reminds us of ante bellum days. Between the tree and the house there is a green lawn with flowers and other growing shrubbery. A driveway winds through the lawn up to the mansion. The calendar has at the bottom pad with the months thereon, and each month has timely suggestions to farmers.
 Any of our readers may obtain a copy of this calendar by sending cents in stamps, to pay the cost of tubing and postage, to the Virginia Carolina Chemical Co.,. at any one of the following cities where their Sales Ofnces are located: Atlanta, Savannah, Ga., Montgomery.

large accessions of population in these years to come, the great growth of homes will be in the present limits of the city, for the simple reason that the necessity for proximity to ones work is growing more insistent as competition becomes keener. Hence. the well-known residence sections of the city of this day will have become filled up long before the expira- tion of the five years, and the areas now given over to shacks and rookeries will have been utilized to meet the demand for homes.
 The Number One Man.
 These two men are of equal intelligence. Each has the capacity to grasp the facts which we have outlined in the foregoing paragraph. One of them bought a lot in the city in this good year of 1906 and made the arrangements to build home upon it. The end of the five years sees that home paid for and surrounded by

himself to believe that an exceptionally good bargain would turn up in the course of time-that fortune would hand him the lot on a silver platter to speak All the same, the months revolved and prices of residence property steadily advanced, until at the end of five years he finds that home in the city Is utterly beyond his reach although his income may have increased. Then you hear him say: Sec that lot? It is worth $2O0 a front foot, a cool $12,000 I could have bought it away back in 1906 for 5000" There may ba pleasure in such "reminiscences, but 1t must be of melancholy kind, especially on rent day.
 This picture is not out of drawing It is really not graphic enough In 1911 there will be hundreds and hundreds of these two classes of men in Birmingham. The important question is, to which will YOU belong?
