INV of Clerks Support Washington

an atmosphere Of hustling prosperity
to a town. but when the warm
months come around they leave town
with nlled purses and spend their
bulky sum at the seashore and moun.
lain resorts. The busy clerks stick to
their posts in all kinds Of weather
a all through the year and when the
gloom settles down after the big guns
are gone the government clerk ID the
only hope Of the merchant and the
amusement managers. It may seem
strange. but when closely figured out
the humble government clerk IL the
mainstay Of our capital city.
During the long months when the
congressman and senators are enjoy
ing the luxuries Of vacation the clerk
must sweat for his daily bread. Those
humid summer months Of Washington
are hard ON q mans nerves and dis
position and hence the physician and
lawyer are kept from the door Of pow.
erty. Food, dress and amusement
must be had and this necessity pro-
vides for the well being Of still an
other class. In this way the 10000
clerks keep things moving during the
dead season. II the clerks were to
follow the example Of the Legislators
and 60 to summer resorts to rest up
for two or three months the capital
city would take on the appearance Of
q deserted village, the MERCHANTS
would be compelled to close up shop
and grass would begin to appear be-
tween the cracks of the sidewalk.

The forms of old age insurance now
In operation In the European countries
are classified by the commissioner Of
labor as voluntary insurance not sub
sidized by the government, voluntary
insurance receiving government subst
dies, compulsory insurance. and non
contributory insurance. The invest.
cation revealed that in q number Of
European countries funds are found
which provide old age pensions for en-,
ployees on the basis Of contributions
from both employers and workmen.
Usually the employer requires the
workman to Join the fund, SO that az
far "a the employe Is concerned the
system may be regarded as compul.
sorry.
The three European countries having
a national system of compulsory old
age insurance are Austria. Fran , and
Germany. In each case the law emu
merates the classes Of persons subject
to the law. In Austria, the law in.
cludes salaried persons only. though
the government is now engaged in
formulating q plan for q national sys.
tenn of insurance for workmen. In
France and Germany the law covers
nearly all the population painfully EN-.
ployed who are receiving wages or sal.
aries. though many Independent per-
sons Of small means are included. The
expense Of the pension in each Of the
three countries is met by payments
from the insured persons and from the
employers.

now in conspiracy with the bear spec
 ulator to reduce the price of cotton below
 the cost of production.
 The New England spinner and all the other spinners having paid about 15 cents per pound for the last two crops, have based their contracts for goods to be
 made from this crop on 141ac and 15c cot ton.
 In tariff bulletin presented to the low CT house of Congress in june this year by the association of which MT. Hobbs Is a member, is statement which was intended to lead Congress to believe that
 the cotton spinner would have to pay 15c
 per pound for this crop, and I believe that they expect to pay that price.
 Cotton is selling much lower than
 the manufacturer ever expected to see
 it this season and noobdy Is more sur
 prised than he at the way our people
 have sold and when we quit selling and demand 15 cents per pound for
 the remainder of this crop it will be
 no more than he expected us as in telligent men to do. Our failure to pleasing surprise that has come to the spinner this season. For the first time in five years our people have sold on a declining market. Four years ago when the price would break our people would quit selling and the price would immediately go up again. This was the case up to and including last year. If the same course had been pursued by our farmers this year cotton would now bring 14 and 15 cents per pound If our people will quit selling now cotton will go to 15 cents. Never in the history of the production of cot ton have so many bold and reckless statements been made as those made by bear speculators about the pro- 1,,, nf orr hax- never believed that this crop would be more than 13,000.000 bales and the de- partment of commerce and labor said that the American crop of 1910 should be 13,00O,000 bales fin order to keep the mills operating and prevent a fur ther reduction in the already low sup ply of raw cotton" That was last year and we lacked nearly million and a half bales producing what the depart ment of commerce and labor said that we should produce. The department of commerce and labor, speaking of the short crop of 1900, said: Tt brought the cotton manufacturing industry of the world into the most acute situation in which 1t has been since the period inn mediately following the civil war" Now, when the worlds supply of old cotton is the smallest that 1t has been in 40 years, and the flax crop of the world is short, inadequate to supply the linen industry, which will increase the demand for our cotton and when tho cotton crop of India is short and when New England cotton goods are selling at prices that warrant 35 cents per pound and moro for raw cotton, l cannot believe that MT Hobbs regards a 13500.0 900 or 14.500,000 bale crop as constituting "a large supply of raw cotton" Nor do l believe that he really regards 15 cents per pound as an un- reasonable price.

A Reasonable Plea

tAae Not with drugs, but with reinforce- Hment of digestive agents, such as are naturally at work in the stomach? Scientific analysis shows that digestion requires pepsin. nitrogenous fermentst and the secretion of hydrochloric acid- When your food falls to digest. it is seproof positive that some of these agents are lacking in your digestive -sapparatus.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets contain nothing but these natural elements necessary to digestion and when placed Ht. work in the weak stomach and small intestNnes supply what these or gans need.

 MIR. UNDERWOOD Cullman Citizen Believes He Will Be Nominated THE OUTLOOK BRIGHT Number of Prominent Cullman Citi- zens Going to Birmingham Next
 Thursday to Attend Coun-
 try Club Banquet
THE OUTLOOK BRIGHT

Cullman, November 21-(Special )-Sey- eral of the Cullman politicians. among whom will be Hons. J. R. Rosson editor oi the Cullman Democrat; A. A. Griffith, representative from Cullman county in the last legislature, and County Solicitor s. J. Griffin. will go to Birmingham Thursday morning to attend the banquet given at the Country club in honor of Hon. Oscar w. Underwood by the peo- pie of Birmingham. Invitations have been received by several other prominent men who are close personal friends of MT. Underwood who may also be in attend ance on the occasion. MT. Underwood has many admirers among the peoIle of Gull man and north Alabama, who feel that the state has had distinguished honor because of the prominence given the name of MT. Underwood in connection with the nomination for the presidency of the United States. Hon. s. J. Griffin, one of the most prominent men of the town, and close political observer, in speak ing of MT. Underwood, said
 q have had several letters from diff ferent newspapers over the state and prominent pOutlclanS, aSklng me would I have a second choice should MT. Un- derwood be defeated for the nomination. To these I have replied in the negative. 1 am for MT. Underwood first, last and all the time. The same would apply to any other man whose cause l feel dis posed to espouse. l am for MT. Under wood because I believe the democratic party has the best chance to win with him of any man in the party; and be- cause he has proved himself a man of great ability. I know that Underwood has a better chance to be elected than MT. Bryan has ever had, and l have always been staunch supporter of MT. Bryan. It has been suggested that Ala bama take Woodrow Wilson as a second choice in case MT. Underwood is defeat ed, but so far as I am personally con- cerned, I have no second choice. Ala bama will furnish my first and only choice and that in the person of Oscar w. Underwood"
 Mr. Griffin said further, in speaking of Woodrow Wilson: T have come to the conclusion, after a close observance of Mr. Wilson, that there is absolutely no comparison between the two men. Will son is a theoriest, a man with impracti- cable ideas, and, like MT. Bryan, has policies that are utterly impossible to carry out'
