A sound banking institution such

our city, and directly affects the pro-

Of this kind Is therefore one of the
best friends Of labor, and as this bank
has always maintained a most friend

Plain Facts

Those men who are not in the drink ing class, but who are opposed to prohibition for the reason that it does not prohibit, but, on the contrary, adds to the evil of ihtemperance hypocrisy and lawlessness, have been told by leaders on the other side that prohibit tion does check the liquor traffic and in certain places is strictly enforced. Let's try 1t here, anyway" the prohi- bitionists say.
 In small communities where sub stantial majorities vote for prohibition 1t should be possible to make prohibition law effective-for a while >at least. In "dry" cities, however, prohibition is a farce. If any man doubts this let him read the liquor and criminal statistics of prohibition Maine, prohibition Kansas and of pro hfbition sections in other states. We'll informed men have known all along about the utter failure of prohibition in Maine, but for the benefit of those persons who have not given the mat ter attention, two widely known and respected citizens of Jefferson county one of them a former chief of police Of Birmingham, are now in Maine and are sending to The Age-Herald the results of their Investigations and ob- servations. They report plain facts and their letters make interesting read ing.
 What is happening In Portland and other cities in the leading prohibi tion state would happen in the Bir- mingham district. under prohibition, only conditions here would concur to make the illicit business in alcohol far worse. Of course there are many honest, sincere prohibitionists, but in the light of truth, it is difficult to un- derstand how even the most ardent advocate of temperance or of total ab- stinence could vote for prohibition in Jefferson county.

Bessemer Vs. Open Hearth

This is the year In which the pro- duction of open-hearth ingots is ex- pected to overtake the output of Besse- mer ingots, and possibly to exceed it. The stronghold of the 3essemer prod uct has long been the steel trust, but it fully appreciates the rise and com ing victory of the open-hearth process In five years it has built but one Besse- mer converter, while it now has 1S0 open-hearth furnaces. At the close of the year 1906 it had 1S0 open-hearth furnaces and 37 Bessemer converters It's Duquesne plant has been trans formed into an open-hearth plant, and at Gary none but open-hearth furnaces are being installed. The truth is, .Bessemer ores are becoming scarcer, and steel production looks away from the Bessemer process to the process that makes a better grade of steel. 1 prefer open-hearth steel.
 Fortunately. for this district, there are no Bessemer ores here. No Besse- mer converters are here to be dis carded at great expense in order to make room for the all-conquering open baarth furnaces. Ressemer steel will continue to be made, perhaps, ten years longer, for by that time it's best friend, the steel trust, will have be- come the greatest open-hearth pro- ducer in the world.
 This country made last year 12,275,- 253 tons of Bessemer, and 1o,970,9 ,99S tons of open-hearth ingots, and this year the race will be close, with the odds In favor of the newer process.

THE AWAKENING OF INDIA.

From Harper's Weekly
 When one of the administrative officers of the Bombay presidency was about to take charge of his office. various meth ods were adopted of expressing a vel come by the Indian population. A great arch was erected, and on one side appro- prate words of welcome were inscribed in English On the other side in the native language. was this remarkable dec laration. God deliver us from the rule of our countrymen!' Such frank state ment Is surrey the very best evidence of approval of English methods of govern ment.
 India is awakening to a sense of Fier responsibilities, and to the advantages that have been offered her by the British government. It is gradually becoming a Homogeneous nation in thought and ac- tion on broad plane, and autonomy will be the outcome. and independence of out side interference will be guaranteed by England Her position will eventually be relatively the same toward the British crown as Australia, South Africa, and the other colonies. India will he a nation, though a composite part of the British empire, free from internal strifes tha beset her for centuries before and up to the time of British occupancy.

Governor Corners Proclamation

'lf the Alabama legislature" says the New Orleans Times-Democrat Approaches it's task in temperate and judicial spirit, with the determination to correct the defects inherent in some of it's present statutes, and succeeds in re-enacting those laws that are just and reasonable in some form less vul- nerable to the attack of the corpora ton lawyer and the federal judges, the causeAof the state will be immeasur- ably strengthened and we may learn whether the abuse of the injunction process has any limit as the lower federal courts are at present consti- tuted. The lesson will be valuable enough to amply justify the expense of the special session"
 This very fairly presents the view taken by the greater number of newspapers In other states. All recog- nize that the line between state and federal action should be definitely drawn somewhere, and the meeting of attorneys general at St. Louis showed that the republicans are as desirous of curbing the injunctiye process as are the democrats.
 It is not a matter that should be treated from any partisan point of view and the fear is that Congress meeting amid the preliminary efforts of a presidential campaign will not treat it in a judicial spirit. It is a question that threatens the independ- ence of the states. One view of it would by development and construc ton even threaten the existence of the states. Unfortunately the Rooseveltian spirit looks almost with a single eye to the centrallzation of all political power in the federal govern ment. Let us hope, however, that the supreme court is not afflicted with the centralization fever.
 Wise and thoughtful action on the part of the legislature in this state next month will be helpful, while ex- treme and inconsiderate laws would be extremely hurtful at this critical pe- Is wholly sound, and The Age-Herald hopes it will be read by every member Of tlv legislature and that he will be guided by it when he goes up to Mont gomery to assist in making laws that may readily become historic and Tar reaching.

CHEERFUL JUNGLE JoE.r
,om the Chicago Record-HeraldA

From the CnlcaRO RecOrd-f1 erald..
 Uncle Joe" Cannon is full of the milk of human kindness-fuller of that than of anything else. It is for this reason, of course, that he thinks we should deal gently with the rare specimens of rich people who "get cranky" just as every body else is apt to. It is fine thing to have man in public life so willing to turn the other cheek, and. indeed, to let the whole people turn the other cheek and keep on turning their cheeks, first one and then the other, indifinitely. It is really stimulating.
 But for genuine dyed-in-the-wool sun shiny optimism Uncle Joe' reaches the topmost point when he rejoices over that 2-cent fare between Danville and Chicago, which makes the trip cost him only $2 40 each way more than it used to cost him when he had a pass. The 2-cent fare is one of those facts which, he is sure, prove that the railroads of the United States are much more efficiently admin istered in the public intereF than any other railroads in the world. and especial ly than any owned and operated by for eign governments
 If Uncle Joe" ever runs for President it ought to be at the head of a party all his own, with the one plank platform Sunshine, all the sunshine, nothing but sunshine--and then some.''

CoaIinq the Pacific Fleet

The proposed course of the battle enough opposition among republican members of Congress to make certain that the subject will be freely dis cussed in Congress before the fleet steams southward toward the Horn. Obstacles are presenting themselves, and it is now pretty certain that the fleet cannot be prepared for the long trip in December. It may get away in January or February, and in the meanwhile Congress will nave met, and it will be asked to vote an addi- tional sum for naval purposes.
 Int inefficiency of Russia Is dupli- cated in our fleet to our shame and confusion We have no colliers, and our own merchant marine is not equal to the task of carrying coal for the use of the fleet We are treading, so to speak. In Rojestvensky's footsteps. We are as destitute of merchant marine as Russia was when she sent her fleet to the hospitable embraces of Togo. The needed coal for the pro- posed cruise to the Pacific Is to be carried, friends and fellow citizens, in foreign vessels, and let us be glad it is not to be foreign coal.
 The truth is, we build~for glory's sake battleships and we neglect all known auxiliaries, and when war or a great cruise appears we are as un- prepared as Russia was in the days of her war with Japan. We have no col Hers, no merchant marine, and per haps the only good that will come from the mysterious Pacific cruise is 2
