Alleys Here and Elsewhere.

Washington is afflicted with resi-
Dental alleys as well as Birmingham,
but in Washington they have taken
hold of the evil with a view to finding
comprehensive remedy. The law
now forbids the erection of any more
habitations in alleys in that city, and
the commissioners of the district are
trying to induce abutting property
owners TO turn alleys into minor
streets by making them forty feet
wide
All told, Washington has 600 alleys.
Three hundred of them have been
listed, and in them over 10000 people
live, including of course a vast num-
Der of unfortunate children. The cur
rent issue of Charities" is devoted to
an exposition of the shacks and tene-
ments of Washington's alleys. 1t pre-
sents many picture that is duplicated
in the alleys of Birmingham.
The widening of alleys in our best
business district is impossible, but
there is no reason in the world why
the building of more shacks in our
alleys should not be forbidden; and II
every citizen would get Charities" for
March 3, he would be apt to become
a supporter of the Washington remedy.
Habitations in alleys forbid good
sanitation, because they are meanfy
built and are poorly supplied with
water and drainage. The alleys them
selves are unpaved, funkempt and dis
tressful. Birmingham is afflicted with
alleys beyond any other American city
except possibly Washington, and the
latter is endeayoring to overcome the
drawback, and its first step consists
in forbidding the erection of additional
habitations in them. 1t is now a ques-
tion of time when the existing shacks
can be pulled down. Washington fully
appreciates the fact that it can be
neither beautiful nor healthful until its
alleys are reofganized, and the author
tiles in the capital are wrestling with
the problem in good earnest.

Mills Here and in ENGLAND.

In Alabama there are about fifty
cotton mills, containing about 100000
spindles. We are in the habit of con,
sidering this result great achieve
ment. So. perhaps, it is, all things
considered.
But comparatively it is not, for in
England which already held over 40,
100000 spindles, there were built last
year sixty-one new mills, and those
new mills hold 100000 spindles and
10000 looms.
If England, which is 1000 miles
away from the cotton fields, can see
money in the building of cotton mills
there must be big earnings in sight
for mills built in the south. And YET
last year not a single new mill was
built in Alabama. Sixty-one in Eng
land and not one in Alabama
There is plenty of money in this
country, and it is seeking profitable
investment, and fifty new mills could
be built in Alabama if we had fifty
men in fifty counties who could wake
up capitalists to the opportunities pre-
scented in Alabama, where fuel is
cheap and water powers numerous
and unfailing. Steam coal is availa-
BILE at bottom prices, and it is strange
indeed that new mills are not going
