Bessemer, December 8.-(Special.) )-In the center of the richest mineral deposits in the state, in close proximity to vast farming country, amid pleasing mountain scenery and matchless natural resources, stands the city of Bessemer A little over 20 years old, its magnificent industrial plants, it's broad streets lined with sub stantial buildings of brick and stone, it's splendid citizenship and city government caused 1t to be designated the Marvel City,"
 The appellation is particularly appro- priate. as marvellous indeed was it's early growth; in 20 years industries represent ing nearly s1O, 600, with a monthly pay roll of $3O0,OO0, have been located within her borders
 The Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad company owns and operates five large blast furnaces, which produce thousands of tons of pig iron monthly. The furnace plants have been enlarged and improved recently and are up to date. They have established many records in the past in the production of pig iron, both as to quality and quantity.
 The mammoth pipe plants, cast iron and soil, whose products are carried into every market in the world, are equipped with the best and most modern machinery in the world. Electric cranes have been in- stalled to handle the immense cast iron pipe manufactured by them. The Ten nessee sompanys large rolling mill and a number of minor industries which give employment to many men, help materially in keeping up the large monthly pay rolls.
 Within two miles the Woodward Iron company operates it's mines and its three blast furnaces. It's people trade, and many of it's employees live here.

plants of miscellaneous nature, including tho great steel plant of the Tennessee company.
 These railroads, built at enormous ex- pense, are centered here-for what? They did not come tentatively or to please their millionaire promoters or capitalists. In Yerd tonnage did it-a tonnage that out ranks as $ to 1 the combined weight of all the surplus crops of the south-cot- ton sugar, rice, tobacco, peaches, water melons and early vegetables Instead of searching 10 broad states for tonnage the railroads founds they could get much greater tonnage here in Birmingham, and so they came here.
 The railroads west of the Mississippi are yet to come. The Rock IslandFrisco is here, and the Gould system will come here and so will every other big system west of the river and south of St. Louis.
 Birmingham is today the chief railroad center of the southeast and 1t will soon become the center of all southern lines.
 The Union Pacific and the Southern Pa eifc may perhaps be said to be here now, because MT. Hartman, who controls both of them, controls the Illinois Central and the Central of Georgia It is difficult to see how those roads could better serve this district than they do now. So it will be in the case of all other southwestern systems. All will come here because the tonnage originates here.
 Where the tonnage is the railroads will come and where the railroads are trade and population surely follow. The city is 37 years old. Long before 57 more years have elapsed the development of this dis trict will be carried to a maximum, and that simply means that million people will fill Jones valley from hilltop to hill tcp This will be Greater Birmingham in the fullest sense of the words.
