BRITISH BALLOTS
SOON To Be CAST
In Just a Week the Political
Campaign VIII End
LIBERALS, ARE CONFIDENT
Great Surprises Are ProphesIed In
Coming Election and UnIonlst
Leaders Perdict Victory But
With Small Chance.

London, January 8.-One week from to-
day the balloting will begin In the most
bitter and weightiest political battle since
Gladstone's home rule policy split up the
old parties In the eighties. Twelve Lon
don and Sc provincial constituencies go
to the polls next Saturday, large num-
bers on Monday and Tuesday, and the
voting will drag out through fortnight
The issue is in no wise open to a conf
dent prophesy. The present tendency
seems to foreshadow a new liberal gov
eminent with a small working majority.
On the other hand, it is within the pos
sibilities that the conservatives may win
enough followers to capture control They
are most likely to suffer through apathy,
but such campaign as Is being carried
on must bring out the most hardened
stay-at-homes. That there will be many
returns to former unionist allegiance of
seats which the radicals won four years
ago is not doubted
The long list of seeding liberals who
have been won over to tariff reform, pub
lished during the week, indicates that
there may be great surprises in the COM
ing elections. Many Of these are manu-
their workers.
The unionist leaders proclaim their con-
fidence in the result, and they undoubt-
eddy have hope, but a unionist victory
would require such an enormous turn
over that 1t Is questionable whether, even
with the tide in favor of that party, more
can be done than reduce the government
majority to such a small margin that it
would have to depend upon the Irish vote
for legislation. This might result In
speedy dissolution and another appeal to
the country, in which the unionists would
have better prospects of success.
Mr.. Balfour, Lord Landsdowne, Lord
Miner, Lord Curzon, Lord Rothschilds
and Austin Chamberlain, the ex-chan-
cellor of the exchequer. have been the op-
POSITIONS heavy guns In the last week.
Premier Asquith, Chancellor Lloyd
George, st. Edward Grey. Reginald Nc
Kenna, first lord Of the admiralty, and
Winston Spencer Churchill. president of
the board of trade. have been pitted
against them.
With tariff reform and the German
menace" for ammunition, the opposition g
speakers have compelled the budget and
the holdup Of the budget by the house Of
lords to take back seat. Mr.. Balfour' s
plain speaking about Germany provided
the sensation OF the week. He is the
strange bedfellow Of the socialist Blatch-
ford, whose clamorous demands for q
great navy and CONSUMPTION have made
him one Of the figures Of the day
Joseph Chamberlain puts forth daily
letters in behalf of the protectionist can
didates.

utterly Inadequate 1t should be the duty
of the legislature to adopt such laws
as will place Alabama alongside other
states where greater progress has been
made N this important matter. No state
has such abundant and cheap material for
road building, and no public expenditure
will bring more munificent returns.
There are other questions of Importance,
the discussion of which would unduly
lergthen this paper, but which will re-
ceive proper attention during the cam
paign.
THE executive may recommend legis-
lation but the duty of making law rests
with the legislature. Our state consti-
tuition forbids in expressed terms one de-
partment from encroaching upon the du-
dependence of each, the integrity and in
dependence of each. within its proper
sphere, being safeguards to our repub-
lican government
1.-THE result of the recent election meant
more than the defeat of the amendment.
1t was protest against extreme, intern
perate and radical legislation, against
extravaganza, and waste In public ex-
penditures and against the political tur-
moil and agitation into which the state
has been plunged by the ambition and
schemes of selfish politicians. 1t was a
vote of want of confidence in the present
administration and demand for re-
turn to that spirit of conservatism which
while wisely progressive refuses to en-
bark the state upon every half con-
sidered legislative experiment or danger
Gus innovation, but which with justice.
moderation and impartiality as its guide
secures to every legitimate Interest the
equal protection of the law. 1t was
protest against legislative encroachment
and trespass upon those reserved rights
of the people which in the language of
the constitution shall forever remain in
violate. The verdict OF the people so
clearly expressed should be accepted in
good faith.

offers such generous opportunities to en-
terprises and labor as Alabama. Power

Strikers Attack Police.

Sydney, New South Wales, January
S.-The police on duty protecting the
men working in No. 6 colliery of the
Dominion Coal company were attacked
today by number of the strikers, who

officers. The police finally succeeded
in quieting the strikers and arrested

were found upon the prisoners. The

to capital invested by our own people,
no more and no less.
IT believe that the next democratic
platform to be adopted in this state
would correctly express the sentiments
of our people should 1t pledge not only
to citizens Of this state, but to citizens
of all other states, that all capital in
vested in legitimate enterprises in Ala
bama, whether foreign or domestic,
corporate or private, shall have the
equal protection of the laws and the
equal friendly consideration of those
who administer the laws.
Economy In Public Expenditures.
"rhe present legislature at its vari-
Gus sessions, has made appropriations
which have exceeded the current rev.
enues Of tho state. and the treasury
will again be confronted with de-
ficit next fall. The revenues of the
state are restricted by constitutional
provision fixing a maximum rate for
state taxation, but in many cases the
burdens of taxation have been in
creased by means Of larger assessed
valuations.
1--WE should not exceed our income.
and should use every possible effort
to avoid increasing the burdens of tax
alton. We should pursue such policy
as would attract OUTSIDE capital anu
convert idle property into productive
property. The immediate result Of this
policy would be a large population,
more employment for labor. and a ma
tural increase in taxable values, which
would augment the revenues Of the
state to an extent which would wipe
out the annual defioit in the course Of
two or three years. Meanwhile the
strictest economy. compatible with the
public welfare is Imperative.
Public Education.
1.-THE state has already made notable
advances In the cause OF public educa-
tion. There should be no backward
step. Every means within our power
should be used to increase our educa-
tional facilities, and to advance our
public school system, 30 that Alabama

Confederate Soldiers.
Taking as she did first rank in war
it is my earnest hope that Alabama. now
in her days of peace and prosperity,
should take precedence of her sister states
of the south in the munihcence and
liberality of her appropriations for tho
support and comfort of the Confederate
soldier, whose glory is the richest herit-
age of a great people.
Agricultural interests.
with a soil capable of producing ev-
cry variety of product known to the tenn
perate zone, Notwithstanding our marvel
GUS Industrial and manufacturing devel-
opment, agriculture constitutes the chief
occupation of majority of our people,
and 1t is upon the industry and inielll-
gence of our farmers that rests our
chief sources of wealth and power. We
should not forget that Alabama in com
mon with her sister states of the south
possesses a monopoly of product upon
which largely rests the commercial su-
premacy Of the nation. The completion
Of the Panama canal saving the long
haul from the cotton fields of the south
across the Atlantic ocean and via the
Suez canal to the teeming millions of
the Orient, will enormously increase the
consumption and demand for cotton and
cotton goods, and enhance the value of
this important product. 1t Is the impera-
tive duty of the state to foster and in
crease the power and usefulness of the
department of agriculture and give great
err encouragement to industrial education
and improved methods Of farming.
