FOR JUNGLE REMUS''
A MONUMENT FOR HIM IS SUGGEST
 ED.
Mrs. Green thinks Great Writer of ChfIsRen's Stories Should be Honored by Those He De-
 lighted.

A monument to honor Uncle Remus'' has heen suggested. The suggestion comes from Mrs. Kate F. Green who writes feelingiy of the great hearted writer who gave so much pleasure to children.
 Io every child whose heart had been delighted by the stories of Uncle Re- mts". should contribute, no matter, if thJ contribution should be no more than a nickel the monument would be qgiclxly built.
 JThe suggestion for a monument to the honor of Joel Chandler Harris was qhade as soon as the news of his Heath reached the city.
 In the form of a letter the suggestion is made. The letter reads: To-day, by cable and telegraph, the great world hears of the death of Joel Chandler Harris, Uncle Remus," and back to the unostentatious bier around which mourns his loved ones tn ere is borne the wireless message of univer- stt grief, of love, of tender sympathy. He was in life the intimate companion tie sympathetic friend, of thousands Upon thousands of children, as also of Iayriads of "grown-up children" and none will stand aloof at his funeral otsequies for each and everyone has a rght to share in the sorrow there. flWhat the world owes Uncle Remus," can never De computed, VIII never De computed, until the outermost shores Sf time are touched by the widening Circles of his immortal stories and their influence is imprinted in tho hearts of the latest generation.
 this greatest of story-tellers there should be erected a monument that will carry to the coming ages his features and form engraved in stone. and every state, and every land, should send ltone to be embeddedin it's base; and the khildren of the human race should take kharge of the arrangement in every detail and raise the heart-tribute wherewith to defray whatever expense necessary. They will do this. 1 Beneath the statue Itself there might ! be, fin massive bronze, basso- relieve figures of Uncle Remus," of sthe Iit- the boy and of many of the charming s'animal friends' which hIs wizard pen childish heart.

have charged him with having given the higher institutions more than their share of the States money to the neg lect of the country schools. He talked triumphantly of the raises in tax val uation and the good of the intangible taxes but between these rather calm periods the speaker would launch out in frenzy again and again on the cor- porations. the railroad corporations es- pecially, and the trusts.
 His collar molted about his neck ear Iy in the address. He spoke from an improvised booth on rollers which was pulled up facing the grandstand. The governor humorously remonstarted with the manager of the fair for hav- ing set his audience behind the wire netting. He said that his words were unlike foul tips and not to be dreaded as they would see later.
 Many who heard the address of the Governor today were speculating on what he meant exactly by his constant allusion to the white man as distin- guished from the negro. Ordinarily he omits all references to the negro as he has not concerned himself with the negro problem since his administra- ton began.
 Appeals to Prejudice.
 Some frankly guessed that it was a desperate resort of the governor to recapture the order and fellowship of those who supported him in this sec- ton during his campaigns
 An appeal was made to the Anglo Saxon make up and he seemed to try to invoke the inherited love of liberty and identify that with his pursuit of the railroads.
 Once he declared that whenever one hears another deny that he is an ad- ministration man that one may put down the other as party to trust or close to a trust Another time he with the administration methods as railroad agents or attorneys. This was a broad statement and 1t Is due him to say that he did vince when he made it. It was nothing like his applela- tions of towards and CUTS which pre- ceded and followed such declarations
 Every time he spoke the word 're- act" he anRrily asked: react. To what react? To the hands of the rail- roads and have their agents sit in the capitol and dictate the laws of the State?
 Once the speaker went into an eulogy of Jefferson Davis and told of the resentment which arose in his soul when he daily crosses the metal star at the threshold of the capitol and thinks of the present day efforts to de- stroy state. sovereignty
 He went so far as declare that Thomas Jefferson a hundred years ago predicted that the worst menace to the nation would be the federal courts. The speaker said that this has come 10 be true. He said that Jefferson pre-

1t may be that the needs of the paper might demand that the entirc building should be built of steel and concrete and that the present build ing as strong and complete as 1t now Is be torn away to make the entire structure modern. If 1t should be nec- essary. the new building is being preparing way by which the entire structure could extend to the cornev and be one harmonious whole.
 But for the present. the old four story building of brick and stone which has housed The Advertiser for nearly six years. will sufiice and 1t will remain untouched except for the necessary openings and connections t~ join the two buildings
 The New Presa.
 The new press when it is installed will attract general and widespread attention. The press Is the latest made and there are only three others in the world They are located in The Cin7 cfnati Times-Star office. The press is the High Speed Goss Straight-Line. The press is four cylinders wide. The best idea of It's capacity Is given In the statement that 1t will print SO,oo0 s-page papers. an hour. It will also print in an hour 30.000 l2-paGe. I4- page or 16-page papers. For a ca- pfcity' of 15.000 an hour it will priAt papers from 1e to 32 pages.
 Attached to the new press are two folders and two deliveries. It has several new features to 1t which cor- tribute to speed and convenience.
 A new feature of the mechanical equipment worthy of special notice is the fact that there will be no beltinT Motors will be attached directly to the shafting of all machinery. The new equipment will be in keeping with the highest ideals of efficiency and conver- fence.
 The new building will be completed come time during the fall When 1t ss finished the home of The Advertiser will be one of the largest in the South and one of the best ednilpped in the entire country.

tiser went into 1t with the expecta- ton of keeping it untouched for many years. 5
 But the development of the paper was remarkable. In short while its quarters became cramped. The cement and concrete basement was enlarged Then an additional story was put upon the building. This afforded consider able room and relieved for time the congested situation in the. of1ce.
 The New Lot.
 The growth continued and became faster. Then the lot next to 1t on the east was purchased at e high figure. Like all Dexter Avenue property this lot on which there was an old fashion ed two story building had trebled in value. The price was high but 1t was paid and The Advertiser had secured . place for it's certain and natural growth.
 The chief embarrassment under the old conditions grew out of the publi- cation of The Sunday Advertiser. The limit of the capacity of the office so far as it related to the Sunday paper was reached year ago. There was neither room in the typesetting, the ad, or the circulation departments. The Advertiser building had to be expanded before The Sunday Advertiser could.
 The embarrassment was felt as we'll in the preparation. printing and distri- button of the daily. but 1t becam acute in the publication of the Sunday pa- per.
 The press capacity was inadequate for the growth of the paper. And yet The Advertiser press today ia one of the most modern in Alabama. By that is meant the old press Established less than Pao O erA veA fsw n, ,f.sr. .s ditional deck was added. This old press. soon to be discarded is as mod ern as any in Alabama, but its capaci- ty is not sufficient for Tho Advertiser and the new press has been bought.
 The work on the new building will be in charge of Hugger Brothers. ths well known contractors of Montgom.

With the completion of the new building there will be installed re- markable press, the latest achievement of the art of building presses This press is the latest and fastest made. It is the Goss High Speed Straightline and paper rushes through 1t at the rate of twenty-two miles an hour. It has the wonderful capacity of e0,000 eight page papers an hour. The new press win be established in special fy prepared press room of concrete and steel AS part of it's equipment an electric chute will be put in to bring the plates from the stereotype depart ment on the third floor and an elevator will be established to bring the heavy paper rolls from the sidewalk to the press room.
 The New Building.
 The new building will be three stories and basement in height. The front will be pressed brick. cut stone and plate glass. It will be the same width Of t&e present Advertiser building. twenty five feet. In appear nnce the fronts will be dissimilar. al- though the two buildings will be merg- ed into one and both will be used by the large force of Advertiser employees. The two buildings will be thrown into one and with arches on the first and third floors and connecting doors on the second the daily work of preparing. printing and distributing The Adver- tiser will be carried on.
 The Advertiser moved into it's pres ent home little less than six years ago. The building is situated on the corner Of Dexter Avenue and Lawrence Street. It was three stories in height. twenty-five feet broad and no feet long. IL was expected that the build ing would furnish a home for the pa per for at least q dozen years.
