Oscar UnderVood'S Grip

A service of eight terms has lifted Bir- mingham's representative in Congress up to unauestioned leadership and great pros pective power Tn the political history of the state no other case can be found Alabanlians have been promoted in Wash ington, but it is not possible to name one whom every democrat was eager to recognize as floor leader and chairman of the greatest committee as soon as the democrats had regained power.
 There has been keen contest for the Il places below the craftsmanship of the ways and mean committee, but no one appeared to contest the chairmanship. MT. Underwood will be selected in the caucus of January 1s without dissent. inE voice, and it is said the prospective speaker will himself place in nomina- tion MT. Underwood for the headship of the tentative ways and means committee. This great honor comes to Mir. Underwood spontaneously and unanimously and no Alaban,an in our previous political his tory was ever so honored.
 It comes, too, at & time when the com mittee on ways and means may be desig- mated to name all the other committees. The caucus of January 1s will determine this. It is already determined that the great policy of downward revision of the tariff to a revenue basis decreed by the people at the polls is to be entrusted by the ways and means committee, to be headed by MT. Underwood, to be se- lected on January 19. Alabama Is honored when MT. Underwood is honored in this striking manner. With these honors goes a great task, but MT. Underwood is master of tariff details and his knowledge of such measures extends far beyond that of Mir. Taft's famous commission that exists for delay purposes only Precious little need has our representative of any help on their part and they will no doubt have to fire their expensive stock of facts and figures off at random or else put them in cold storage pending the uH- certain return of the republicans to power.

Tennessee Valley Cities

No little unrest exists in the cities Of The Tennessee valley. Huntsville became 30 dissatisfied with Director Durand's Figures that 1t proceeded to do its own counting. The census of the Business Mems clubs found. 1t is reported, over 1o.0OO people in Huntsville. Director Du- rand found but 7611. The difference of nearly, if not quite, 40 per cent is a diff ference that should be considered off, cjaIly. but Congressman Richardson will, Indeed, be fortunate if he secure an off, cial revision of the city's population. The matter is pending, and until 1t is de- trrmined Bessemer and Gadsden will not know what their rank in the state is.
 And by the way the proposed Muscle Shoals city will have to swallow Flor ence, Sheffield and Tuscumbia whole if H is to get credit immediately for a com bined population. Should this be done Selma and Anniston's noses may be put cut of joint, for Selma has 13.6t9 and An niston 12,794 population. Whether Muscle Shoals city can overlap these figures at mce remains to be seen. Muscle Shoals city in Muscle Shoals county would, how and Anniston. The rivalry of the three throughout the state is that all three will pt growth and prosperity.

regrettable that the work has fallen
 into the hands of incompetent con- tractors. Congressman George W. Tay- Tor Is, however. looking into the mat ter. and the chief of engineers Is giv- ing it attention. Major Flagler, who is now in charge of the work in the Warrior. recently called the contractors to Mobile, and it is believed the in competency and endless delays of the present year will perhaps be weeded out The foundations of these locks were laid four years ago and work on them has dragged along in an in- excusable manner. Instead of taking four years more in which to com plete them one year should suffice and two years would surely tax the pa tience of the people along the Tom bigbee and Warrior as well as of the people in Mobile and In this district.

Senator Johnston's Successor
power.

The term of Alabamas junior senator does not expire until March 4. 1915, and his successor will not be elected until January of that year. And yet candidates are multiplying already for the coveted seat. There are, perhaps, more candidates at present than there will be in Jan uary. 1915.
 The people of Alabama will ascertain before 1915 that they have in Senator Johnston himself an efficient and infiu- ential senator. His sense of humor and picturesqueness of expression are caus- ing him to be regarded as one of the wits of the Senate, and his personal pop ularity Is unquestioned. Alabama has long followed the policy of retaining in office capable legislators. Senator .Bankhead will for that reason be reelected this winter. and there is small room to doubt Senator Johnston's reelection in 1915 in view of his increasing influence and prom thence in the Senate.
 However. announcements in 1910 for an office to be filled in 1915 are harmless, and if the game pleases the players at 1t no one else will be apt to object. Be- yond reasonable doubt Senator Johnston will be his own successor.

Railroad Construction In 1910

All told 204s miles of new railroad were laid this year. compared with 2o21 miles laid last year and 176i miles laid in 1908. The uphill progress is slow, but a small gain in mileage is better than none at all.
 Alabama did we'll this year, for she se- cured 121 miles of new line as against 55 rliles last year. On the Alabama, Florida and Southern railroad 1eh miles were laid near Marwil. The Alabama, Ten nessee and Northern laid 9 miles. The Atlanta, Birmingham and Atlantic put down 40 miles and came into Birmingham over It's own rails. The Birmingham Southern laid 15. 40 miles in many connec- fsons The Central of Georgia laid three miles. The Cullman Coal and Coke com pany laid six and one-half miles, The Illi- nos Central and other roads laid the bal ance, about five miles. The contemplated construction in this state in 1911 is 1895 miles. These figures represent new main line track, second tracks and sidings hay 3ng no part therein.
 The interurban electric lines are begin <,tn0 to secnra a footbold in tho sorth The amount built this year was 122 miles, and there is promise next year of 37p additional miles. The outlook of such construction Is promising. It includes the Underwater, extending from Gadsden to Tuscaloosa.

HOW MIR. PEPYs SPENT A DAY

From Pepys Diary, January $. 1659.
 This morning MT. Sheply and I did eat our breakfast at Mrs. Harper's, my brother John being with me. upon cold turkey pie and a goose From thence l went to my office. where we paid money to the soldiers till o'clock, at which time we made an end. and I went home and took my wife and went to my cosen, Thomas Pepys. and found them just sat down to dinner, which was very good; only the venison pasty was palpable beef, which was not hand some. After dinner I took my leave, leaving my wife with my Cosen Strad- wick, and went to Westminster to MT. Vines, where George and I fddled a good while, Dick and his wife and her sister being there but MT. Hudson not coming according to his promise, went away, and calling at my house on the girl, I took her and the lanthorn with me to my Cosen Stradwick, where. after good supper, there being there my father, mother, brothers and sister, my Cosen Scott and his wife. Dr. Draw water and his wife, and her brother, MT Stradwck, we had a brave cake brought us and in the choosing Pall was queen and MT. stradwick was king. After that my wife and I bid adleu and came home, it being still a great frost.

TQmhIQheH Lock Work

"Complaint is heard" says the De- mopolis Times. Ion every side in De- mopolis these days regarding the meth ods employed by the contractors in charge of the construction work of Lock No. at Griffln's Landing. It is claimed by those in a positoin to know that the work is almost at a standstill, and that the opening of the river is four or five years distant if the gov ernment allows present conditions to be maintained. Inasmuch as Demopolis citizens. as well as those to be ben- efted by the improvement of the War rior and Tombigbee. have been led to believe that this lock would be com pleted within a year. this announce ment comes as a great disappointment. The commercial bodies of Mobile al- ready have raised a voice of protest against this condition. It Is probable that the same thing will be done in Tuscaloosa in the near future. It were high time that the Business League of Demopolis should fall into line on this question

SING SINGS STAR REPORTER

From the New York Times.
 The Star of Hope. Sing Sing prisons bi-monthly newspaper, which chronicles events of importance in that little walled city with its 17Oo convict population. has star reporter. Just what his name is even the majority of the inmates don't t knew. Nor do they know what was the vocation of the writer before he went to dwell in Sing Sing.
 He is known there as Convict 52,43o, and as such he signs the stories he writes for the Star of Hope. He has gained quite reputation among the prison read CTS and is usually chosen by the editor of the prison newspaper to "cover" the big stories as they occur in Sing Sing.
 Ono of the last assignments of Convict 52,4s0 was to report the visit of Mrs. Maud Ballington Booth to Sing Sing on Sunday, December Il, and In the current issue of the Star of Hope appears his story. under the caption. Mrs. Booth at Sing Sing

HOUSE OF LORDS IN HISTORY

second chamber appears to have been that it should consist of a small nu- cleus of hereditary peers and a larger number of peers for life. In his open ing address he spoke of the import ance of the veto of the protector and of the necessity of an upper house as safeguard against nasty legislation.
 On the Restoration in 1860, and again at the revolution in 16S8-16S9, there were splendid opportunities for the reformation of the house of lords; but although suggestions in that direction were plethorically forthcoming, noth- ing was done then or since. That Is why 1t has remained to our own time to see the house of lords taking on the task of reforming itself. Whether 1t will be allowed to do so, or whether the at- tempt has come too late, is the out
 standing problem in present-day Brit ish politics

England Advancing Nfusically

England has been great In literature, and it has done good deal in architec- ture and sculpture, but 1t has been nota- bly, backward in music when compared with the continental countries said a professional man. Some excellent hymn tunes have been composed by English men, and Sullivan struck out in a new line well worth while when he wrote the music for Gilberts satrcal librettos But not until recent years have com posers of the first rank risen up in Eng land. Elgar, who had his first notable success when he wrote a musical setting for Newman's Dream of Gerontius,' has composed other beautiful works in large form Sir villiers Stanford known as England's symphonic composer, is really an Irishman; but he is doing fine edu- cative work in England and a generation of musicians is now coming forward that may yet make Great Britain a musical nation. One of the latest large works by an English composer-the Rev. Father Anthony Pollen-is mass in honor of St. Cecilia. It was sung for the first time in the Westminster Cathedral on the feast of that saint. The London Tablet pro- nounces it great achievement. It is rich in melody, and contrapuntal science is said to have been used with singular charm. Mir Terry, a well-lnown London critic of liturgical music, declares un- equivocally that 1t is the first and only complete and consistent masterpiece of the polyphonic style produced In England since the sixteenth century. After quot ing MT. Terry the Tablet goes on to say:
 The praise is not exaggerated. Shoals of motets have been composed of high merit but this is the only example of mass complete in every detail. and strict lv conformable to the canons and spirit of polyphonic art, and instinct in every phrase with the spirit of the liturgy. It is a product of Pope Plus Ks "Motu Proprio." The mass is written in four parts for mixed voices, save the "Agnus," which is in five parts, with canon for two trebles. The offertory is the proper of St Cecilia The 'Kyrie" is fugal, and all the other movements are in initiative polyphonic style. The "Benedictus" de- velops counter theme inverted at varied intervals ofs the octave, the twelfth and the eleventh. There is not grabbed phrase from end to end, but 1t moves smoothly, rich, harmonious, sincere. and vet in all it's wealth of resource. simple and straightforward. The choir sang it con amore, and the composer, who was present, could not have had finer expo sition of his work

WHISTLER AND VERIFY

Haldane MacFall, in the Forum.
 It was exactly in his confusing Art with Beauty that Whistler fell short of the vastnesses. There are far greater, far more profound emotions than such as are aroused by mere beauty; and it was just in these very majestic qualities. in the sense of the sublime and of the im- mensities, before which his exquisite and subtle genius stood mute. But at least one of the greater senses was given to him in abundance-the sense of mystery. His splendid instinct told him that sug- geston was the soul of craftsmanship, and kept him from the blunder of mim- icry He never overstated the details of life Out of the mystic twilight he caught the haunting sense of its half revelations and its elusiveness, and was granted an exquisite emotional use of color to Nter these subtleties and in the seeing he caught glimpse of the hem of the garment of the great designer.

IN HOTEL LoBBIEs
Beer satisfies Many

Statewide prohibition in Alabama would have met with far less opposition at the polls and at the bar of public sentl- ment had the framers of the measure been long sighted enough to have made an ex- ception in favor of beer and of domestic wines," said business man.
 'I am not much of a beer drinker. The little drinking I 4ndulge In is wine at din- Der; but I believe the majority of men who drink at all like beer, and had they been allowed to indulge in that mild beverage many of them, at least, would have demanded nothing stronger. We have a practical example of sane tenn perance policy in the case of Atlanta, where beer is served by law under the name of near-beer.
 Atlanta. is now a famous beer town, and whisky drinking there has been re- duced to a minimum. The drastic laws we have in Alabama today are hurtful in many ways, and they certainly do not promote real temperance as a general proposition. Some of those who are ask ing that the laws be not changed are doubtless sincere in thinking the more severe the enactments the better; but thousands of men who were for prohibi- ton are not for 1t today in the shape we have it.
