Hinton J. Hopkins, Insurance Man,
 Getting Some Information Regard , ing Water Power Developments

Hinton J. Hopkins of Liverpool, Eng land. representing the Royal Insurance company of that city was a visitor to Birmingham yesterday. being the guest of Robert A. Brown. He is vice presi- dent of the Royal Insurance company and one of the most prominent insurance men visiting Birmingham.
 In discussing the business situation yesterday MT. Hopkins said that he was very much interested in the reports that Englishmen were looking over water pow CT projects in Alabama and believed something very big would be done for this state and other southern states by the syndicates Mir Hopkins went on to say that his company was not interested in the water power developments. except that he was getting a little information from the ground for his directors in Eng land.
 Mr Hopkins visits Birmingham every few years, but said yest.erday no visit of recent times had disclosed such phenom- iral business outlook as the present one. He said that indications were that Bir- mngham was growing even faster than the most enthusiastic could believe and that the future would disclose a greater increase than the recent census gave to Birmingham. MT Hopkins was shown over the district yesterday by Mir Brown and c. w. Fonville.

Report Accepted

This report was accepted by the city commission. It is generally agreed that the subcommittee of engineers should be small enough to secure promptness and reasonable quick action.
 This subcommittee will go diligently to work and get matters in such shape as to tentatively make a recommendation to the city commissioners; and to the representa- tives of the various railroads, and it is further expected that the outcome will be some definite plan, so that the import ant work will be begun at an early date. It Is recognized by all that it is a work of great magnitude, and it will take several months to perfect the plans and several years before those plans shall have been put into operation and consummated. Ev- cry one present at the conference mani fested a proper and liberal spirit, and it is hoped that plans will be perfected which will be acceptable both to the city com missioners and to the railroads.

Not One Reactionary.

For encouraging the creation of
combinations to restrain trade, and
refusing to enforce the law, for a
like consideration, they should be
destroyed.
For the lavish waste of the pub
lie funds, for the fraudulent DISPOSE
ton of the peoples domain, and for
their contribution toward the divis-
ion of the people into classes, they
should be destroyed.
"For the efforts to seize for the
executive department of the Federal
government powers ri%ghtfully belong
ing to the State, they should be des-
troyed.
"All destruction will be theirs this
very year, If We do our duty.
What is our duty? To think alike
as to men and measures? Impos-
sible, ven for u great party, There
is not a reactionary among us. All
Democrats are progressives. But 1t
is inevitably human that we shall
not all agree that in a single high
way is found the only road to
progress, or each make the same man
of all our worthy candidates his first
choice.
1T is possible, however. and 1t is
our duty to put aside all ~selfshness,
to consent cheerfully that the ma
jority shall speak for each of us, and
to march out of this convention
shoulder to shoulder, intoning the
praises of our chosen leader. and that
will be his due, whichever of the hon
orable and able men now claiming

SPOKANE PAPER QUITS
TAFT FOR ROOSEVELT

SPOKANE, Wash, June 26.-The
only Pacific Northwest newspaper,
long a supporter of President Taft,
to flop to Roosevelt and the new
party is the Spokesman-Review,
which yesterday, under the heading
"a New Party with Colonel Roose-
welt as It's Leader" says ~editorially:
THE Taft Republican machine ac-
complished its purpose. Colonel
Roosevelt was robbed Of the Republi-
can nomination for President and the
wishes of the rank and file of Re-
publicans scoffed at.
"Standpatism throws down the
gauntlet, and the progressive party.
instantly organized, takes 1t up.
Colonel Roosevelt today stands be-
fore the people of the United States
their first nominee for President.
1.-THE fight for the square deal Is on,
and, as Colonel Roosevelt aptly puts
1t, its cardinal principle is Thou shalt
not steal
1.-THE bosses have raised the issue:
Is the Republican party to be an or
~ganization for manipulation by the
few or the representative organiza-
ton for the many?
THE clarion call to arms has beer
sounded, and the Spokesman-Review
enlists itself under the Roosevelt ban
nef."
