DEMOPOLIS IS SHOWING HOW
 COOPERATION GETS RESULTS
BY WALTER HARPER

than willing for the interest he had in the town. A better selection could not have been made.
 When such men as A. R. Smith and Jesse Hearin showed willingness to de- vote their time and energies to the free work of helping to promote the interests of the community others became inter ested and fell in line. Now there are more than 100 members who pay monthly dues into the organization and many more who respond readily to any worthy cause that is espoused by the league.
 The officers have no trouble in raising all the money they need for any public enterprise that is worth while. A call for a special meeting always brings out a big and enthusiastic crowd of the busiest men in Denopolis.
 I attended one of these special meet ings few days ago. It was to com plete arrangements for the automobile trip to the good roads convention at Bir- mingham. It was composed of bankers, merchants, manufacturers and planters with plenty of money, enthusiasm and the necessary automobiles. One of these lat ter had an automobile already, but he wanted a new one for the occasion and has ordered it. It would be delivered in due tme but this young fellow Is keeping the wires warm with impatient orders and reminders.
 On a recent visit to this section the edi- tor of the National Magazine said: De mopolis is the biggest town for it's popu- lation in the country" Brother Chapelle Is correct.
 With the new era of development that is coming to that wonderful agricultural section in Marengo and adjoining coun- ties, and that very soon Demopolis is certain to be one of the most important trading centers in the state, and is bound to grow along other lines as well. Being on navigable river, open the year round to the gulf, and being in the midst and In easy reach of what deposits of raw ma terial it is bound to become important as a manufacturing center.
 The early builders of Demopois had a great city in their minds and planned ac- cordingly. They laid out wide streets and avenues and planted ample shades everywhere. There is not a better laid out town in the state.
 The Business league and the people have a splendid foundation upon which to build. It's everlasting resources in agri- culture, timber, mineral and other raw materials form a mass of opportunity that spells success and prosperity in capital letters
 If the Business league had done no other work than compelling and inspiring the spirit of cooperation among the people of the town It's efforts would have been

HELM COMMITTEE MAKES ITS REPORT Says LOrimer Election Due
 to Bribery PETIT IS CRITICIZED Report Says Judge Petit's Ruling Was Unwarranted and Unlawful Interference With the leg
 islative Body
PETIT IS CRITICIZED

Springfield. Ill, May 1S.-The report of the Helm senatorial committee, appoint ed to investigate circumstances surround ing the election of William Lorimer to the United States Senate, was returned to ,he senate today. The two most vital points are -
 Criticism of Judge Petit of Chicago for his ruling in the heabeas corpus case, in volving Tilden, Cummings and Benedict and this expression:
 Your committee has reached the con clusion that the election of William Lori- mer before the last general assembly would not have occurred had It not been for bribery and corruption
 The report says the committee went over all the testimony in the Lee O'Neill Brown, Pemberton, Clarke and Broderick trials and also sets forth the summoning of H. H. Kohlsaat publisher of the Chi cago Record-Herald, and MT. Kohlsaat's disclosure of the fact that it was Clarence F. Funk, secretary of the International Harvester company, who had told him Of a conversation which he (Funk) had with Edward Hines, in which he is alleged to have informed Funk that he had suc- ceeded in electing Mir. Lorimer to the United States Senate at cost to him and other unnamed persons of about s1O0,0O0.
 Regarding the habeas corpus decision of Judge Petit in the cases of Tideu, Cummings and Benedict, the committee says:
 Such action was an unwarranted and unlawful interference on the part of member of the judiciary with a legisla- tive branch of the government" inability to make a searching investigation resulted when documents alleged to be in the hands of Tilden, Cummings and Benedict could not be presented, reported the com mittee.
 The committee also touches on the so- called jackpot" episode, but declares that so long as no pei son publicly con nected with that matter is any longer a member of the Senate no recommendation is made.

.................s...s...s complished through this organization in one year can hardly be estimated. It's activities have been varied and far reaching. But perhaps it's most valuable work has been the cementing of public sentiment in the cooperative upbuilding of the town and the community The unanimity o. interests as compared to the disorganized singleness of effort that prevailed more than year ago amounts to an innovation.
 The people have really surprised them selves The activities of the Business league have been extended to almost every phase of public enterprise, and does not stop with the building of the town of Demopolis alone. As an organization the Business league has undertaken to help solve the problem that Is now facing the farmers and planters of the black belt. The scope of its labors is broad and unselfish, though realizing that the true development of the entire black belt in Alabama will result ultimately in the greater prosperity of the town of Demop- oiis.
 The officers and members of the league are partial to no section of the great dis trict within their territory. This broad spirit of liberality is partly accountable for the wonderful success of the league.
 The organization of the Business league year ago developed a school of boosters
 in Demopolis. The lonesomest men in the town are less than half dozen knockers. They are practically ostracised and must some day join the great majority or petrify.
 The league was conceived and organized near the end of a period of intense po- ltical and personal feeling in the town. Only an optimistic few believed that such an organization could be successfully formed. Several attempts in years gone by had been made. but with very poor success Fractional interests defeated any good that might have been accomplished and prevented even respectable attend ance at any of the meetings.
 little more than one year ago Jesse B. Hearin was elected mayor of the town. He soon formed the habit of doing a great deal of work for the people and the town without pay. He was interested in the growth and prosperity of his town and community and suggested business or ganization. He was advised against it, but he grew the more determined.
 Jesse has legal training and experience and loves a fight. He Is also a good mixer and a peacemaker. He Is one of the best .harmonizers in the state and does | It with the most positive autocracy you ever saw.
 | He called meeting and few of the leading men he had seen beforehand met. | When the question. or rather evident im- possibility, of paying secretary came up MT Hearin offered his services free for one year.
 The league was organized and has been | growing in strength and power ever since. A. R. smith. one of the strongest business men of the town. was elected pre1idept' l He was too busy with his varied tptereStl ' to undertake the work. but he wee saosS
