An Active Campaign For
 Developing Ala. Resources

What such campaign means TOT and owners nnd the people of the state generally. More business and less poli- ties the demand of the hour. -f
 Alabama is the richest state in the union in undeveloped resources. An ac- tive. campaign properly directed for the development of those resources would bring more in practical benefits to all classes and every portion of the state than can be estimated in money value. Here is evidence that will demonstrate the truth of this statement:f Alabama possesses 20000,000 acres of available farming lands, the average price of which is $50 an acre under the price of less productive lands in the north and west. A properly sustained agricultural cam paign would close up that difference and bring in its train a round billion of dol lars in added wealth, to the land owners of the state. 40
 An intelligent campaign for diversified industries by the leading cities of Alabama would be successful and such result would more than double the population of each and greatly enhance all property values and every line of legitimate busi- ness These cities would then become great industrial and consuming centers for the products of Alabama soil, sus- taining and protecting agricultural prog ress Can any one figure out what such results would be in dollars and cents?
 As yet there has been no aspirant for political leadership in Alabama who has any conception of these possibilities for his state that has in any way sought to secure their materialization.
 These would be-leaders'' are busily en- gagged in fostering personal ambitions, prescribing their betters, creating antag- onisms and seeking to inaugurate de- structive policies in government that prevent development and bar progress
 Tie politicians appear to own the news papers. as they have their views ex- plotted without cost and without linl. while we have to pay for the privilege in this narrow space of getting these vital facts before the public.
 In a modest way the Eden Development Company is engaged in campaign out lined above. It is combining agricultural with urban development It is selling 6 per cent preferred stock and giving with each share, free. choice between three acres of ground and lot in Eden all sustained by guaranty that one-half of all sales shall go into industries on the property. This Is the only proposi- tion of this kind in Alabama and in which ones own money goes to protect and enhance the investment and not into the pockets of promoters.

The scarcity of common labor has long been serious proposition for the Ten nessee Coal, Iron and Railroad com pany, which at an enormous expense has imported into this district many thou sands of laborers. An equally serious condition is the fact that number of labor agents infest Ensley and vicinity and entice the 1aborers away on prom ises of various kinds.
 So persistent have these decoys been that a number of them have been ar rested and fined by Judge Sugg of the recorders court of Ensley.
 These men not only decoy the labor away but breed dissatisfaction among those who remain. The Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad company is using thou sands of laborers not only in it's plapts that are in operation but also in the Vast developments that are under way in the vicinity The labor situation is a seri- ous one in Ensley and it is stated the company Is preparing to prosecute those who unlawfully entice the laborers away.

Social se-.ion of Elks


 The social session given last night by the Ensey lodge of Elks was most enjoyable affair and was attended by large crowd of the antlerd tribe.
 The programme was unique in many respects and included a number of new and original stunts The luncheon was excellent, the viands choice and tooth some.
 2 Exalted Ruler c. IT. Wood presided with dignity and ease and carried out the lengthy programme in full Patrick Lothario Day, the orator and racounteur of the lodge. gave a most amusing ac- count of the adventures of a trio of recent Mardi Gras festivities at New Or leans. Kenneth White, the Statesman from Tennessee" who leaves next week for Chicago. sang the popular ballad q Don't :lnow Where I'm Going, But I'm on My Way" Much to the relief ond verse and was excused from further effort.
 John Bernard Lyons, the Sage of Corinth,' spoke on astronomy and proved to his own satisfaction that the Sun do move" Some of his audience were lit tie skeptical, but as John weighs 1sO pounds and has foot like ham his theory was generally accepted. Thomas Jefferson Roe gave a learned discourse on Darwin's evolution. He made great hit until, to prove the theory that man descended from monkeys he pointed out several members of the audience; nothing but the diplomacy of the exalted ruler prevented an open rupture. Charles Bruce Ramsey convulsed the crowd with his exemplification of the latest methods of spelling Mase Mellon. w T. Palmer, Dad Harrison and others contributed to the fun of the evening. At Il o'clock the absent brothers were remembered and with clasped hands the assemblage sang the tender words Should Auld Ac- quaintance- Be Forgot" and the social session became a pleasant memory.
