votes were counted and il was seen his
party had obtained control. Sharon con-
graduated him and said:
- The glory of victory is all you have
been fighting for, of course. Mr. Mackay.
You don't know anything about man
we are willing to take all the care and
responsibility off your hands and keep
right ahead with the work, as We have
been doing.
- Thank you. Mr. Sharon answered
Mackay. If we don't know how TO man.
age mine we can learn; and If we have
no mills we can get them. Well not ask
YOU TO make any sacrifice for us.
The first thing the new management
did was TO rescind the assessment. and
as there were plenty of custom mills
there was no difficulty in getting ore

dividends were being paid.
The Hale & Norcross bonanza was not
one of the great ones. producing from

BANQUET IN MOBILE
OPENING OF THE NEW RATTLE
 HOUSE.
Cffinens Congratulated on the e1 600 900 Enserprfse--COIonel Russell Pre- sides--Mr. Dave is Among
 the AneAkera.

Mobile. Nov. 2i.-Ths New Battle House. Mobiles S1.0o0,000 hotel. was opened tonight with . subscription banquet at which 200 guests were one and was interspersed with c mu- sical and vaudeville program.
 The toastmaster of the banquet was Col. E. l.. Russell. Vice President of the Mobile and ohio Railroad. Hotel men from Cincinnati. Louisville, New Orleans and other cities were present.
 Among the numerous speakers was cial Club of Montgomery, who dweit happily on the future of Mobile and its importance to the State.
 Concluding. MT. Dave said:
 "Murmers reach us north of here that Mobile feels hurt over things that have happened in legislative way in the last two years. Rumors come part Of the men of Mobile that their interest in the State of Alabama is slight.
 Tt is true that there have been leg islative occurrences during the past two years which have failed to please all; in fact the whole State has had difficulties thrust upon It. But Is this the moment for men of red blood to sit down and repine? Is 1t not rath- CT the moment to declare that the day of small men shall have its end and that every thinking man in Alabama should day by day be preaching tho gospel Of Alabama's tremendous des- tiny and by that very means slough on from public life every petty soul.
 Men of Mobile, Alabama needs you. You need Alabama. Your future great ness will aid AIabama's future great ness and be based upon 1t.
 "I wish for you wisdom as you move forward towards your next great epoch as you unite forces here and through out the State to make that epoch in- terpret it's full possibilities to you"
 The New Battle House stands on the site of the famous old hostelry of that name, which was completed In Nos vember, 1sse, and destroyed by nre February, 1905. The construction of the new house was started in Decem- Der, 1908, and at the opening today 1t was practically complete.
 It is an eight-story structure or re- iuforced concrete. containing 800 rooms. The building. site and furnish tnes aggregate a cost of xl.l0o,0OO, and if fs a matter of local pride that the entire amount was subscribed by Mobile capitalists.
