committee must be accepted as prima facie correct, and that no question as to it's accuracy could be considered until reported on by the committee on cre- dentials, and that there can be no perma- nent organization or declaration of party principles until the membership of the convention is first settled.
 At Kansas City no question as to the unit rule or any other rule was contested, the proceedings being conducted through out with apparent unanimity.
 At St. Louis in 1904 it was ruled by both the temporary and the permanent chair man that where the unit rule prevails 0 poll of the delegation Is only allowed in case of a bona fide challenge of the cor rectness of the result as announced by its chairman or spokesman.
 A more difficult question arose at this convention in the case of the delegation from Ohio, where the delegates, except ing the delegates at large, are chosen by district conventions. The point was made by MT. Moore that the district delegates, having received their credentials at the district conventions held at separate times by delegates separately chosen, and in nowise holding their credentials from the state convention, the state convention had no power to impose the unit rule upon them. The presiding officer, MT. Bailey, held that these delegates are of, and represent the state, and not the in- dividual districts. no matter how chosen, and that the state convention, having di- rected the vote to be cast as majority of the delegates should determine, it must be so recorded. No appeal was taken from this decision.

 MT, Shaw, as Secretary of the Treasury, put out $50, 900 900 in Panama bonds, chief ly to provide securities to add to the circulation of the banks. Since then the demands of railroads, Industrial corpora tions, states and cities for loans nave strained credit, have forced resort 10 rotes for a year or two in lieu or ionS bonds. and thus exposed the necessitles of rich as well as poor enterprises Ihose demands, like the ghost of Banquo, rise not in one place, but in many, to com1ort ambitious promoters. single railroad last month authorized a new Issue or S300. 000. .0O0 in bonds.

In this country, with the strong habit of relying on the treasury to bridge ever gorges and streams of business, as a ,, sure help in every time of need, the rela- ton of national income to outgo is a vital factor in every branch of monetary af-

 It is fair to note that even the severe

The Next Largest Thing for Birmingham.

Birmingham people do not and can not realize what tremendous advertisement we received from the Confederate Vet erans' Reunion
 q have called on a certain man in Mis- sissippi for years and have never sold him a dollars worth of goods; in fact he very seldom looked at my samples He bought a Memphis line and would not change. This year he greeted me warmly He had come to the Reunion, he saw we conquer ed. He talked Birmingham to me, talked steel plants, talked Highland Avenue, talked sidewalks, streets and a hundred other things which attracted his atten- tion when he came to the Reunion. Finally I managed to get him away from Bir- mingham to talk Birmingham goods. I had easy sailing, and sold him car load of goods to be delivered in August and one in October. That is what the Reunion has done for mer'
 That in brief, is the statement of a travelling man out of Birmingham. His experience is similar to many others this summer. We are feeling the good effects of the Reunion every day We can each and every one of see the good results of accomplishing omething-RIGHT.
 Now comes the Alabama State Fair, the next greatest thing that Birmingham will have this year. If we received such great results from handling the Reunion right we should get greater, more immediate and more lasting results from giving the Alabama State Fair right. We should all "heave' together just we did in the Reunion and we will be surprised at the direct results that every merchant and business man will get from the fair.
 Last year the fair was a success. This year the people back of the fair mean to make it a far greater success Last year there were many farm exhibits. This year there will be more. Last year there were many great attractions. This year there will be more and better amusements and sports. Last year there were good races. This year the races will exceed any ever held in Birmingham before. Last year the
The Birmingham age-herald., 1908-07-05

crowds were large This year the promise is of even larger crowds. Last year some few industries were well represented This year a greater number will be bet ter represented.
 In other words the Reunion has set pace for Birmingham and the State Fair Association intends living up to that rec- ord. The only way it can be done is for everyone to pull together to advertise the fair to work for the general good that the individual may benefit.
 This company expects to make money out of the fair if the fair is a success So does every merchant and business man in Birmingham. The greater the success of the fair, the more money we will make So will every merchant in Birmingham. But outside of this, the company Is doing everything possible to make the fair a success for the general good. We believe that the people of Birmingham will give us the credit for being public spirited in this matter.
 Our time and our money are both given liberally to the Fair. We want every citizen of Birmingham to do the same. If you haven't the time to give, send money. If you haven't the money, lend a little of your time. If you haven't either. lend your good will, talk the fair and help ad- vertise it. If you have both, give the money and lend the time.
 By everybody pulling together now to make the fair a success, thousands of strangers will be brought to the city, the merchants and business man will sell the visitors goods and Birmingham will pros- per as she did from the Reunion. And the people who will come to the fair will be your neighbors of Alabama the people you come in contact with, the people you do business with year in and year out, the people you want to cultivate and the peo- pie who want to cultivate you.
 And the effects of the fair this year will be more far-reaching than ever be- fore. Remember that and do your share of the boosting.

I was debating whether or not to sign the con- tract which he offered me, when sud denly my eat arose from her seat under nearby table and advanced a few steps toward him with wavering motion, as If a little undecided in her course of action. My visitor was occupied in setting forth his side of the business project and did not notice her. but I watched intently for the outcome of her peculiar behavior. Suddenly she paused in her advance and peered backward over her shoulder. Her eyes were fixed intently upon space, but she saw, or appeared to see, there some thing that reassured her, for she now ad- vanced steadily to the arm chair in which my visitor was sitting. and once more glanced back over her shoulder.
 Was she looking for encouragement and advice from some ghostly presence? Her next movement convinced me that she had received it. Rising abruptly to her hind feet, she placed one paw upon the arm of my visitors chair, and then, as he suddenly turned his head, the other paw ascended and a soft but emphatic slap fell upon the cheek presented. Then, as if satisfied that she had expressed the disapproval of her adviser she turned with much dignity and left the room.
