BOOST YOUR OWN TOWN.

The following is taken from
one OF our exchanges which
speaks for itself:
"Get interested in your town
and stand by it. If a rich man
starts project encourage him;
ii a poor man, help him. Ii you
have means, invest in something
that will give employment to
people. Do not be afraid to stick
your hand in your pocket. Do
not kick on every proposed i'm
provement simply because it is
not at your own door. Do all
you can to beautify your town
and your property. Be friendly
to everyone and courteous to
strangers, and never forget that
you are a part of the town and
that our own department does
it's share in giving to the town
it's character. Stand by all en-
terprising citizens, and be ready
to do something yourself, and
don't grumble or spend your
time in prophesying failures"
The foregoing paragraph il
quoted because it can be made to
apply to the farming communi
ty just as much as to town OF
city. Each farmer should feel il
his bounden duty to boost the
community in which he lives, fol
it is by SO doing that he is able
to make the returns for himsel
greater. There should be more
cooperation and working to
gether toward the same enc
among the farmers. When thu
residents OF the rural communi;
ties realize this they will fine
themselves making greater pro.
gress and filing their pocket
books with more money thar
when they work SO much individ

Young lady's Voice.

Young Lady's Voice.
One evening a physician in Buff
falo was persuaded by his wife to at

knowledge of or interest in music.
A number of fine musicians gave
evidence of their skill, but the doc
tor was extremely listless. How
ever, when a certain lady came for
ward to sing the physician seemed
to brighten up.
"Who is that contralto?" asked
he.
"Contraltop repeated his wife,
surprised. "Why, she hasn't con-
tralto voice. II is high soprano"
The doctor made no reply.
Don't you like her voice ?" in
quired the wife.

SENATOR PETTUs's FIRMNEss.

The recent death of Senator Pettus of his courage and candor. Some three years ago. as is known. Leslie M. Shaw. then Secretary of the Uni ted States Treasury, made an ineffect- ual effort to have the President re- move Judge H. M. Somerville from his position as member of the Board of United States General Appraisers, for the reason that this officer refused to take orders from Shaw in making decisions in customs cases. Shaw sent for Senators Morgan and Pettus, and, no doubt experimenting a senatorial action. observing rather jocularly, You fellows had better look after your friend Judge Somerville." and thereupon proceeded to lay before the Senators his side of the controversy to which they both listened with pa tience. When Shaw was through Gen eral Rettus in his quaint manner. cool ly remarked. well, MT. Secretary, we don't see any necessity for this, for after you have gotten through with the judge you will discover that he is amply able to take care of himself and needs no guardian"
 The courts ultimately sustained Judge Somervile in maintaining the in- dependence of the Board of Customs as a judicial body, and there the matter ended. Judge somerville is an Ala bamian. of whom the whole State feels proud. While duties require his pres ence elsewhere, Alabama is his home and voting place.

 If this mans statement that the Southern people cannot endure criti- cism were strictly true. instead of be- ing palpably false. such as he would be responsible for the condition. The Southern people are just as patient under just and truthful criticism as any people~op earth. but they would be a pitiful lot of worms If they would silently submit to such venomous statements as he has made all through his series of articles. If there is one thing a Southerner is noted for 1t Is his willingness to give and take fair ly. and if there is one other thing prominent in his character 1t is that he will resent abuse and insult when ever given. Rutherford may think himself extremely fortunate that noth- ing worse has befallen him than criti- cism.

Senator Foraker is plainly getting his dander up, especially since big Bill Taft sat down on him. He comes out in very positive terms in defiance of the Presidential big stick. declaring that no self respecting American is going to be influenced by it. and adds that it won't do any good to put sugar jobs. We don't take much stock in Foraker, but in a scrap between him and Roosevelt we can gladly sit quiet ly down and wish both success in lamming each other.

The Walker County News, published at Jasper, says:

i'S '"AAhoA sS @>S"S' PNoA'S'i~N at Jasper, says:
 The Legislature has passed bill requiring that all local laws be pub lished in the local papers. This is right. It's true that the laws or mo- tice of bills had to be published be- fore the bill could be passed, but there are nearly always some changes made to the original bills before they are passed. and the people are entitled to know what these bills are just as they are enacted into law.
 The News is mistaken in supposing that this Legislature with it's anti newspaper feeling would pass such a law as is above indicated. The bill was introduced, but it has not passed either house and if it had in all prob ability would have met executive veto. The people of the counties are inter- ested in the laws that apply in their counties and the publication law Is a good one Of course there was no in tention of publishing laws of a per sonal nature, but those which relate to a whole county or portion thereof, ought to be published in a county paper.
