NEW BROWN ORE
 DEPOSITS FOUND
J. J. Walker and Associates Open a Rich New Field in Clay Coun-
 ty-High-Grade Ore

It has long been known that Clay coun- ty, Alabama, is rich in undevelopei mineral wealth. Lack of transportation facilities has prevented its earlier devel- opment
 It Is a well-known fact that the first iron manufactured in Alabama was iron, brown ore hauled by wagon from de- posits in Clay county to a small water mill furnace in Talladega county. More than 30 years ago an expert brown ore prospector from England spent some time In Clay county tracing the brown ore deposits. It is said that he satisfied him. self with the richness of the ore, but lack of transportation and other condi- tions prevented it's immediate develop ment.
 For some months past John J. Walker of Ensley and his associates have been quietly prospecting the field and acqur- ing property near Ashland in the heart of these brown ore deposits They have something over 2O00 acres and expert iron men say that the ore is the richest in metallic properties in the entire Birming- ham district.
 Samples of the ore displayed in Bir- ningham are pronounced by experts to be exceptionally fine and indicate a most valuable field for immediate development in a material that is In demand in this district for the manufacture of high grade iron.
 : The many tests that have been made in the field have proven that the ore exists in almost inexhaustible quantity and that the high grace is maintained throughout. The deposits are in easy reach of the Atlanta, Birmingham and Atlantic railroad and in easy reach of Birmingham. This section is also rich in graphite and other valuable minerals.
 MT. Walker and his associates have had an expert in the field making tests for several months.
 The Manufacturers Record and other high-class publications of this nature have from time to time referred to the rich ore and other mineral deposits in Clay county and experts in this district have for a long time known something of the indicated wealth.
 The men interested in the development will spend considerable money and labor fin further developments in this field and announcement was made yesterday that a party of iron men and others inter ested would be taken to Clay county on a tour of inspection in the near future.

 The fruit growers in this vicinity are still optimistic despite the fact that the weather passed the freezing point nearly every night last week. Indications are that large percentage of the plum crop is killed and part of the peaches. but enough of the latter product will be saved to gather a large crop. At the worst this section has fared well as compared to others.

AN IMPROPER APPEAL

DURING the past week the
Hon. Blair Lee has been sending
a personal letter to hundreds OF
Republicans in this county, solicit
ing their support in next Tues
days primary and asking them for
any assistance they can render
him. This strikes us as a strange
and highly improper request to
make o; Republican voters. AS a
matter of fact Republican voters
are not entitled to take any part
whatever in Tuesdays primary.
The Republicans have no primary
contest on hand and there will be
no Republican ticket to be voted
at Tuesdays election. There will,
therefore, be no excuse for the
presence of Republican voters at
the polls and their presence should
awaken suspicion. This personal
letter OF Mr.. Lees, to Republi-
cans, looks as if he had been TAX
ing lessons from Governor Croth-
ers, whose favorite trick (when his
Democratic opponents have him
cornered is to ask Republican
voters to help him out. As a mat
ter OF fact, Senator Lee would
have come ont of this primary
contest with a much better stand
ing amongst the citizens of both
parties, if he had have had less of
Crothers. Warheld and Marbury
in his campaign. Blair Lee, go
ing it alone, would have gone fur
ther and Jared better.
The Cecil Whig., 1911-08-26

chester Mr.. Goldsborough's own
county and were it not that Mr..
Goldsborough is being charged
with having engineered this ar
rangement in the interest of his
own gubernatorial candidacy.
From this standpoint it is the duty
of every Republican to speak
plainly and emphatically, if he is
interested in his party's good
standing and influence in this
State. The tail is not meant to
wag the dog. The party is, and
should be, larger and more inn
portant than any one mans in
tluence or candidacy. If Mr..
Goldsborough expects the loyal
support of his fellow Republicans
in this State, he must give them
no excuse or complaining that he
is more interested in his personal
success than in the party's stand
ing at every point. The time to
say this is NOW-on the very
threshold Of the campaign. With
all respect to Mr.. Goldsborough,
as the gubernatorial candidate, let
it be understood that this is to be
no game of Knights and Kings,
with local interests for the pawns.
If we are not to hang together,
then forsooth, we shall hang sep
arately. The head of the ticket
should never counsel his party in
his own county to attempt only a
bob b-tailed ticket. We want a
better note OF leadership than that
and one which will ring all the
way down the line to the nerve
centres of the last man on every
local ticket. We are going to elect
our local ticket in this county and
going to elect it because the people
recognize that it ought to be elect
ed-that it is high time to end the
very things that have been going
here under the over-lordship oi
the present Democratic machine
While we are doing it, we want no
"bob-tailed' note of leadership in
the State fight. We want a call to
charge along the whole line. Men
who are counselling any less in
spring course need a speedy
change of heart. We think Mr.
Goldsborough has made a mis-.
take, we think he ought to rectify
it at once, and set himself right.
