CHEAPER NOVELS

From the New York Times
 An unnamed eastern publisher is quoted in dispatch from Chicago as say ing that the day of the novel in cloth, or even pasteboard, binding Is almost over, and that soon we shall be buying all our fiction in paper covers for 25 cents.
 That is news of the important if true variety, and anybody who wants to de- clare it false can confidently expect to get many combinations of his denial, as soon as the other publishers, in the east and elsewhere, have a chance to speak little pieces about their erring brother. Not only will they contradict him, put they will open the history of the DOCK business in this country and prove by the records that the paper-cover experiment. has been tried several times, and that never since the close of the piratical era, and the compulsory requirement. or copy right morals, has the experiment '"oved a success for anybody financially con oerned.
 Just the same, not few paper-coVered novels, by authors who do not write, ana issued by publishers who do not print, Tor purely hygenic reasons. are now on sale In every town in the United States. They are still more numerous, and of much higher quality, up in Canada, while over in France practically no novels, and very few books of any kind, make their orig inal appearance between stiff covers. Ihe Frenchman buys his unbound books-not for 25 cents, but for much less than our s2. 1,5O and $1.25 net" and for con siderable less than the department stores cut rates. After he reads the book, if he considers it worth the trouble and ex- pense, he takes 1t to the binder himseh and has it bound according to his own taste and means. Usually he does noth- ing of the kind for the same excellent reason that most of us lose all interest On the majority of novels as soon as we have read them, and are quite indifferent as to how they look thereafter, or as to how long they last.
 Why the Frenchman's privilege should be denied to us is known to our pub fishers, no doubt, but they have as yet chosen to keep the knowledge trade secret, and suspicious members of the reading public are uncharitable enough to think that it is all matter of compara- tive profits Probably the assertion that the royalties of authors would be reduced if their books were sold unbound is true, since the alternative of that would be a reduction of the publishers gain, but in the end there might be increases for both on account of enlarged sales at the lower prices.

A.. Addre.x on Advertising

INT. s. c. Dobbs of Atlanta, sales man aper of the Coca-Cola company and pres ident of the Associated Advertising clubs of America, who will address the chan- Ter of Commerce Friday night on Ihe Creative Value of Advertising,' will treat the subject from a different point of view than is usual with most speakers, sald Secretary Joseph B. Babb of the Cham Der of Commerce. MT. Dobbs Is not an advertising agent, but has had the super vision of the expenditure of hundreds or thousands of dollars for the Coca-Cola company, and advertising has made Coca Cola a household word in the south.
 "Mr. Dobbs, however, has not restricted his attention solely to individual adver- Using. but has had an opportunity to study community advertising and his re- marks will prove of the very greatest in- terest to our people. He Is pleasing and snappy talker Mr. Dobbs began his business career with his uncle, Asa Can dler. in the Coca-Cola business, and not a little credit for the brilliant success made by this company can be accredited to the genius and energy of this young man. His talents were given national recognition by his election to the presi- oencv of the Associated Advertising clubs of America. He was invited by the Cham her of Commerce because he was consid- cred the very best equipped man to talk upon a subject which is of such lively in terest to Birmingham"

 Lake Crescent Dispatch to the New York
 Tribune.
 Tucked snugly in the heart of the Olympic mountains in northwest Wash ington is Lake Crescent. The chief at traction at present is the author, Jack London. Just why London chose this re- zion for an outing when the rugged mountains, the Sierra range, are near the authors California home is because of a desire of his sporting blood to respond to a new call of the wild
 In Lake Crescent abound the renowned Beardslee trout. found nowhere else in the world. To feel the tug of one on the end of a casting line and to caress it's spotted sides brought London here to spend five weeks.
 He came here with the avowed inten- ton of remaining until he had captured a Beardsee trout. For four days he went cut in the morning and rowed back at night, ate his meals and retired to his tent. Not a word was said. Guests saw him bring in strings of fine speckled and Dolly Warden trout, but not a Beardslee.
 Among the guests is Alexander Pan tages, who learned of London's great de- sire and planned to play little trick on the author. One morning he approached London at breakfast and offered to bet sr95 against all the money London had in his pockets that he would not catch a good Beardslee trout during his stay.
 London found S3, and they left the money with the nnkeeper. In the flat bottomed boat assigned to each guest London rowed across the lake, fully five miles. and fished all day. His boat was fairly swamped with various species of trout and some nice landocked salmon. But in spite of fl changes of flies and | three hours of trolling not Beardslee l trout even made a strike at the hooks and spoons.
 Suddenly the author was seized with an inspiration. Selecting a wondrously well-made trolling spoon, London took his diamond stud and tied 1t to the gut leader. an inch above the cluster of hooks, and then bent to the task of troll ing the placid waters of the cove. Hard ly had the hook touched the water when strike and a tug of the line assured the author that a fish was hooked. Fish and man fought a battle for 15 minutes. In the end the man won. Soon in the stern of the boat lay beautifully spotted trout, 2l inches long and weighing about nine pounds.
 About dinner time London carried the prize to the veranda, where guests had assembled, and displayed it, remarking what a fine mounted specimen it would make. Then he walked to the clerk S counter and pocketed the s19S. It cost Pantages another $50 to learn how the trout was caught, as the author told of the diamond display on his trolling spoon.
 And it's no nature fake,'' said London, for there is the trovt and here is the diamond stud''

A TEXAS PATRIOT

From the Houston Post.
 In the death of Alfonso Steele, which occurred at the home of his grandson near Kosse Friday night, there passed away the last actual participant In the battle of San Jacinto. At the ripe age oi 94 years he peacefully lay down the bur den of life and crossed over the river that separates the burdened existence from the unburdened and entered into peaceful rest. He wrought well While among us. Without ostentation he dis charged his duty during all the trying scenes of his existence in way that it's most precious inheritances of unselfish citizenship. Like Sam Houston, whom in following he was shot down on the battle field, that brought independence to his country, he fought the passions that utimated in disunion but when his coun- gel was overruled he gave five sons to uphold the cause that went down at Ap- pomatox He loved his fellow men and his dearest thought was to contribute in every possible way to their emancipation in the broadest meaning of the term. Mental slavery was no less abhorrent to him than political or chattel slavery lie thought man and he lived as a man. He knew not how to truckle to either power or custom. With him the mind was the standard of the man. He was as pronounced a type of the true American as was Abraham Lincoln. May it please God to inspire during the present and coming generations others with as pure and unselfish a patriotism.

Mobiles Wharf Accommodations

From Mobile comes news that "notice has been served upon the Montgomery barge line that hereaft- CT barges cannot load and unload freight either in or outbound at the Mallory line wharf. The Mallory line leases its wharves from the Gulf Terminal company, subsidiary cor poration to the Mobile and Ohio and Southern railways, and the action of the Mallory line is believed to have been dictated by these companies in an effort to fight river competition to and from interior points,"
 This is matter that concerns Mo- bile as port deeply, and scarcely less does it concern all of this state that has rivers flowing into Mobile bay. About three-fourths of this state is anxious to know what the wharf facilities will be at Mobile when the Coosa and the Alabama and the Tom bigbee and the Warrior are improved until each and all afford to shippers slackwater navigation the year round.
 There is little to be gained in open ing the states magnificent rivers if wharf facilities are to be lacking in the states only, seaport. This is a matter that Mobile should clear up and alse~kAown to all the rest of the state It is a matter that concerns the United States~a also, for the gen. eral government is expending mil lions in Mobile bay and in the rivers that flow into it. A clear explana- ton of the harbor situation at Mobile is greatly needed.

Thrift in Winston

Winston county used to be considered one of the poorer counties of Alabama, but now it is one of the most pros porous. Everyone who visits Double Springs, the county seat, comes away full of enthusiastic talk about what in dustry and progressive horticulture and agriculture will do in an upbuilding way. In a recent issue of the Walker Coun- ty News, Frank V. Evans, assistant ex- aminerl of public accounts, and also edi- tor of the News, writes most interesting iy of recent trip he made to Winston. In his concluding paragraph he says:
 "There had been wonderful revolution in Winston the past few years. In drive of 20 miles from Haleyville this writer came through succession or farms rich in cultivation. Corn and cot ton is vigorous The little houses of the people looked clean and cozy Orchards and flower gardens presented indications of enlightenment and refinement. Horses ana mules are fat and sleek, and white nen-all white men-were at work in the fields I am told these are not tenants but land owners, and they are practically out of debt and prosperous Most or these fields are new ground, much Of 1t Tn us [ SC cond and third year, which shows pro gross and devclopmcnt The hills and valleys are rich in soil. and this climate all. that could be desired in the way ol salubrity."

Government of Cities

In recent speech before the Sen ate Senator Owen of Oklahoma un- qualifiedly advocated the commission form of government for municipali- ties, especially if it includes the initia- tive, referendum and recall. All three of these reforms are needed, he thinks, in order to establish direct popular government and to disestab- fish machine rule and corruption.
 As nearly 50 per cent of the coun- Atry's population lives in cities and will lagss it becomes plain that if corrup- tion can be terminated in those con- munities it can and will be ended in the nation. Senator Owen welcomes the movement more particularly be- cause it promises to lead to reform in all. parts of the country, even in the federal government.
 When the business of a city is con- ducted in as business-like manper as the business of bank new era has arrived in this country An era of straightforward honesty is to sup plant an era of graft that was per haps never equaled in any other coun- try. The latter had become the re- proach of this country, and the com mission form of government is quickly uprooting it. More than 200 cities have already adopted it, and the num- Der will be largely increased every year hereafter. Aldermanic govern ment will never be restored in this country. It stands condemned. In many sections of the country it was a disgrace and soon the country will feel like celebrating its overthrow.

National Aid for Roads

America is first among the nations in some respects, although she is last in the respect of public roads. The roads of this country are abso- lutely the poorest among the pro- gressive nations of the world. As poor roads may perhaps be found in South America or in Africa or in some parts of Asia. In Europe, how ever, no roads like those of this coun- try would be tolerated. Even back ward Russia has better roads.
 Senator Swanson of Virginia thinks the time has fully come for a change in this respect. He asks Congress to appropriate S20,000,000 a year for five years to be expended in states that will appropriate an equal sum in the improvement of the postroads and rural delivery routes. The Swanson bill would create a great and benefi- cent national policy. In some form there is promise of the adoption of such a policy, for the people will not endure bad roads much longer.
 The Alabama senators will surely support any measure that offers bet ter roads to the people. The Swan son bill would appropriate to Alabama about $5OO,OO0 a year for five years, and the state would have to do as much, thus enabling the engineers to plan the building each year of about 25O miles of hard road in this state year. In five years about 1900 miles would be constructed, and the entire problem would be in course of solution.
 Public sentiment will assuredly de- mand Swanson bill O. .ysome sort. This country cannot afford to be taxed and held back by mud roads, and the subje;tsmay soon become a dominant natfonal issue.

PROHIBITION IN NORWAY

From the London Globe.
 Prohibition sentiment has led to a cu- rious development in Norwegian politics. Three years ago the Storthing increased the internal revenue on alcohol to such an extent as practically to ruin the in- dustry, causing heavy losses to many manufacturers and farmers. Later a treaty with France made impossible an increase in the customs duty on alcohol. The cabinet recently secured an amend ment to the treaty by which an increased duty was allowed on all alcoholic spirits except cognac and brandy. The Storth- ing. however, rejected the increase of duties on raw spirits, and therefore the heavy impotra tion of alcohol and the ab- sence of dohestic production will con- tinue. The majority of the Storthing pro- hibitionists believe that by stopping the manufacture of spirits completely in Nor way it will be easier later to prohibit the impotrations of liquor.

Baltimore as Convention City

baltimore will probably get the next democratic national convention" said Henry F. Forsyth of Philadelphia. T was in the big Maryland city few days ago and everybody I met there was enthusiastic over the prospects of capturing the convention.
 An immense fund has been sub scribed by the people of Baltimore ana the delegates and visitors would be well cared for. While Chicago or St. Louis would be more popular With the western people as convention city because of proximity, it is safe to say that Baltimore would draw bigger crowd on account of the denser popu- ltqion in the east.
 "It is my purpose to attend the dem ocratic convention of 1912, no matter where it is held. I am not a poll tican. although I never fail to vote the democratic ticket; but l am one of the many who will be on hand to participate in the enthusiasm. owing to the number of presidential candi- dates in the democratic party, the 1n- tarest in the convention will be great CT than it has been for several years. do not recall time since l was old enough to vote when we had so much frst-cIass presidential timber as now Among Pennsylvania democrats wood row Wilson is in the lead, but GOV error Harmon and other democratic statesmen mentioned for the presidency have many ardent admirers in my state"

A NEW SHELL GAME

trom the New York Telegraph.
 A new shell game is being played at the sun-drenched beaches. Let there be three or four girls gathered together under a striped awning or parasols and a young man appears displaying three shells. Says he:
 Girls, how many shells do you seer"
 Three. say the girls.
 T say there are four.' says the young man, and he shuts his hand and opens it again. Now how many are there?'
 Three" say the girls stoutly. Three"
 But I say four" he declares, "Will you each give a,dollar to the Children $ Outing fund if I'm wrong?'
 Yes" they all agree.
 '"rhen give it," says the suave young man. flor wrong l am-there are only three. I've caught six persons with the same dodge this morning.
