Growing Cities.

Atlanta is solid. progressive city and will continue to grow, but Birmingham 2 resources are far greater than Atlanta's and it is only a question of few years when this city will outstrip the Georgia metropolis in population and wealth." said a Pittsburg man, who visits this section frequently.
 T was in Atlanta recently and found business conditions there entirely satis- factory. But conditions here are just as favorable and during the next three years there will be many more millions ex- pended here in Improvements than will be expended in Atlanta or any other southern city. Birmingham may not have quite the population in 1910 that Atlanta has, but in 1920 this city will probably be in the 3oo.oo0 class and It's Georgia neighbor will do we'll to reach 100000
 Atlanta beats all of tho southern cities in the matter of public spirit. But Bir- mingham Is making a good start in that direction and should soon become noted for it's pull together energy

Good Speakers.

Many of the high -ailroad officials in this country who have risen from small positions and whose lives have been exceptionally siren lous. turn out to be masters of a good English style and excellent speakers said profess sional man. Hardly a day passes but what our attention is called to cap ital speech delivered by railroad of ficial. At the Christmas entertainment of the St. Louis Railway club held a few nights ago Vice President Gray of the Frisco made trenchant talk. say ing In part
 The railroad lobbyist (using the term in it's offensive sense) is thing or the past. The designation. once a term Of reproach, will in the future be proudly borne by thousands of men who VIII represent sturdily the rights of their properties before the assemblies Of the peoples elect and who VIII. am sim cerely confident, command respect ana attention in the degree that they respect themselves.
 Wears of right dealing in this re- spect alone can rehabilitate the railroad in the public estimation, but there can be no doubt that this will be done- far-sighted railroad official today desires nothing more earnestly than a square accounting with his vast cienteie-ths publfc-and the honest and efficient ad' ministration of laws which protect a' well as punish. Measured by correct DO litical standards, the railroad man ol the past has not risen to his eppor' tunities, but we must live in the pres ent and should face hopefully tewere tho future.

Conditions have been i'm proving steadily for months past: but many wage workers who ran in debt during the depression that followed the panic of 1907 are only now getting on their feet so to speak.
 With the beginning of another year prosperity in and around Birmingham will start out for new high records. There will be an influx of capital and an influx of population. There will be an increasing demand for labor and every branch of trade will feel the benefit of increasing payrolls."

LAID AT REST.

The funeral Of Mrs. Berton E. Lee,
of whose death in Colorado we made
mention last week, was held from the
Lutheran church Thursday afternoon
at one-thirty, in charge of the pastor,
Rev J. NJ. Green, and the remains were
carried to their last resting place in
the Lutheran cemetery.
Mrs. Lee, whose maiden name was
Rhoda Marie Johnson, was born in
Oak Lake township. Brookings county,
October %, 1881, and died October 1S,
1909, lacking five days of being twen-
ty-eight years old. In 1889 her father.
c. A. Johnson, moved his family to
Brookings. Mrs. Lee started in the
primary department of the Brookings
schools, graduated from the high school
and afterwards the State college, after
which she taught two years in the
public schools of Brookings. She was
married to Berton Emmett Lee June
20, 1904. They lived at Arlington two
years, going from there to Toronto,
and a year ago last summer they
moved to Colorado in the hope Of ben
efitting Mrs. Lees health.
Mrs. Lee is survived by her husband
and little three year old daughter and
father, brother and four sisters. Mrs.
Lee was a young woman Of many no.
BILE traits Of character, beloved by all
who knew her and the sorrowing hus-
band and family are deserving Of
sincere sympathy.
