New Albany Ruling Rates Applicable
for Mississippi River Tswns
Special to Times-Republican.
Des Moines. July 37-Assistant At
torney General Robbins has received a
copy Of a decision by the Interstate
commerce commission that gives him
great encouragement In regard TO the
Mississippi river rate cases now sub
mitted to that body. This decision Is
in what was known as the New AL
bany case. In which the commission
declares that the railroads must not
discriminate against New Albany. as
an Ohio river town, in shipments from
the south, but make the same rate as
to other points on the north side OF
the river. 1t seems that in some places
the railroads absorbed the bridge tolls
but did not do so ut New Albany. The
case IL much like the cases involving
the Mississippi river points. The rail-
roads make the same rate to Daven-
port as to Rock Island. absorbing the
bridge tolls from tho east. But at
Keokuk ard Burlington the bridge
tolls are added and also an additional
sum- The Mississippi river cities de-
mand to be placed on an equality.
The commission ordered just such
equality along the Ohio river and 1t Is
believed will do the same as to Mis-
sissippi river towns.

 "The Sand mountain country Is wonder fully fertile said w. w. Shortrldge, formerly resident of Birmingham. but now making his home at Boaz in Marshall county. T went to Marshall for my health and although I had heard much of the fertility of that section I am now greatly impressed with it from personal observation.
 ''The Birmingham and Chattanooga Railroad company, recently organized to build an electric line connecting the two cities named, would pay we'll and it would be a good thing for both cities and for the country in between. It is the most extensive interurban project in Alabama. The line has been surveyed and engineers are now busy on the estimates of the cost of the work. J. M. Spradin is presi- dent and treasurer of the company and l am vice president and secretary. MT. Spradin is well known as business man. The people of Alabama will not be asked to put up any money. All we want Is the backing of public sentiment and reason- able terminal concessions
 The distance between Birmingham and Chattanooga by our route Is only 147 miles. Between s400o00 and s5,00o,000 will be needed to build and equip the line and President Spradlin is in position to do the 1nanciering."

FATHER ISN'T CULTURED

From the Kansas City Star.

 upon playing only classical stuff. When he comes home tired and asks for a little
 tune he gets nothing but musical gym
 nastics The whole feminine part of the to uplift him, and he doesn't want to be uplifted Tt is just like father to make a complaint like that" says the Beacon. @Father never did take kindly to culture He sits disconsolate in the draughty Kitchen, while daughters Browning Circle meets in the front room It is mothers idea entirely that he put on an uncom- fortable collar in the evening and hear missionary lecture on Borneo. Fathers taste for music stops short at Suwanee
 about the minor poets and the pre-
 Raphaelites. His art ideas are derived from the illustrated supplement- He
 cares not a whit for the pottery of the
 ancient Chaldeans, Shirtsleeves and car pet slippers are his conception of cor rect evening dress for gentlemen. There is little hope that anything permanent
 can ever be done for father. When the

Argentina. The success which has at tended the solicitation of traffic for these lines has been such as to encourage the hope that similar service may be estab- lished from other ports served by the companys lines"
 Vice President and General Manager E. H. Coapman submits tabulated report of the operation of the company in which it is seen that the Southern was operat- ing at the end of the fiscal year, June 90, 1912, 7.0s9. S5 miles; an increase of mile- age during the year of 51.21.
 The Southern is the successor of the old Richmond and Danville Railroad com- pany. It has been the means of develop ing southern resources extensively. There are many who can remember when its trains ran through thinly populated terri tory. Large towns were far apart. Today villages and towns are close together.

Discussing the Export Trade

The Atlanta Chamber of Commerce has called a conference on export trade and the Panama canal to be held in that city on November 26 and 27. It proposes to ship gins and cot ton mill machinery, shoes and furni- ture and the like to the countries south of us.
 This is all very well and only good will result from the Atlanta confer ence, but if any one expects that the products of this district will have due consideration in that conference, he will be disappointed. The coal and coke, iron and steel and manufactured products of this district will be given small consideration at Atlanta.
 These outrun in tonnage all other exports that the south has to offer, and if Birmingham, which will soon have slackwater navigation to the sea, would invite Pensacola, Mobile and New Orleans to send delegates to a conference to consider the exports of this district alone, much good might come from it. The four cities inter- ested are New Orleans, Mobile, Pen sacola and Birmingham, and if each would select 50 delegates, a confer ence of 200 interested men would be- come possible and valuable results might be the outcome.
 Let the Atlanta conference pro- ceed, and then, say about December b, let there be held here a confer ence to consider the export of coal, coke, pig iron and steel and whatever else springs out of the meeting of Atlanta fuel and Alabama ores.
 This may at first sight seem to have selfish aspect, but it has not, for Alabama fuel and Alabama ores have no rivals in the gulf states. New Orleans, Mobile and Pensacola each desires to handle these products, and if the Chamber of Commerce would arrange to hold a conference devoted to the south's natural resources much of an eminently practical nature might be accomplished.

eral forces. He expects them to join him alike on land and in the gun boats. He claims to be without polit- ical ambition. He says he will call an election and that he will not be a candidate for president. The present week will be pretty apt to determine the extent of this new danger to the Madero government. Were Madero free to work out his plans, it is be- lieved that he would rid Mexico of the evils of the Porfirio Diaz rule while he would build school houses and protect the peons from the op- pression of bailiffs and local of ficials.

Another Diaz in Mexico

Senor Madero drove Porfirio Diaz out of the presidency of Mexico, and now Felix Diaz, a nephew of Don Porfirio, repeats the rising in Vera Cruz that his uncle inaugurated a generation ago. The name is at pres ent a name to conjure with in Mex ico, and some think all the anti-gov- ernment factions will rally around Felix Diaz.
 Vera Cruz is the chief port of en- try of Mexico, and Diaz has seized and is holding it against the Madero government. Oppressed as that gov ernment is by rowing bands on the Texas border and by the Zapatists ir the south it may find it difficult tc force Diaz entrenched at Vera Cruz to surrender. Three thousand men of the regular army have been sent tc Vera Cruz, and the scope and strength of the Diaz uprising will soon bs made known.
 It is regrettable that Mexico is harassed by revolutions. The Dia1 rebellion is regarded as formidable because he seeks the aid of the fed

WHO OR WHOM.

Thomas R. Lounsbury, in Harper's Mag

 The truth is that the employment of the nominative who for.the accusative in cer- tain forms of interrogation has become 90 imbedded in common usage that resort. even now, to the strictly orthodox prac- tice frequently requires. on the part of educated men, positive effort or prolonged training. It somehow does not seem nat ural. In the past, assuredly this nomina- tive form, where precise grammar would require the accusative, turns up with al- most invariable regularity in works which set out to represent colloquial speech. "Who is it from?" says the mother, in Jane Rusten's Pride and Prejudice" to her daughter. who has just received a letter. "Who is it like?" says the hero inc of Jane Eyre to St. John Rivers, as she shows him the picture of Rosamund Oliver. Such examples could be multi piled by hundreds. There are cases, in- deed, when the use of whom would strike upon the ears of most of us as painfully pedantic Who the devil is he talking top says Sir Luciu O'Trigger, in Sheri- dams '"Rivals," as he notices Captain Absolute soliloquizing. To tolerate whom in place of who in such a sentence as the last would require the speaker to be so thoroughly steeped in grammar that the sense of traditional usage, which has been hardening into idom, has at last been completely overcome.

YOUNGEST OF EURopE's CITIES

YOUNGEST OF Et tHOPE'S CITIES Sydney Adamson, in Harpers Magazine
 for November.
 Odessa is one of the youngest of Eu- ropean cities-only 120 years ago Hdjl Bey, a little Turkish settlement, nestled on the cliffs that overlook the harbor and dozed under the Sultan across the Black sea. The long arm of Russia reached out and took it. and planted there, upon the plateau overlooking the bay, the beginners of a commercial city that now holds between 500.000 and GOO, coo The revolution in France soon sent refu- gees scattering over the world, and noble names came to odessa, and one may read them still on street corners-Daribas, Riehelleu and Langeron. Later, English men came and brought ships to carry away Russian grain; and then the cri- mean war swept across this friendly re- lation But the English stayed when the war was passed, and then Germans came, and afterward Americans, with reapers and blows and steam traction engines, to help the Russians to grow more richly the grain that the English and the Ger man ships carried out 10 the world. Last of all came the Jews, and they cut the business so fine that the English starved and gave up; so the business of export ing today Is mainly in the hands of the Jews. A few hardy Germans and English are left

National Prohibition Party

T have often wondered why more
 men who earnestly espouse the cause of statewide prohibition do not vote the national prohibition ticket" said
 an old citizen. "If there has ever been any explanation of this question, that l is to say, any reason given why state wide prohibitionists do not vote the national prohibition ticket it has es-
 caped my eye.
 q believe in temperance in the sense of moderation and in many cases total abstinence, but I also believe in the democratic doctrine of local option In
 this state we have county option, but lit would be better If we had smaller units-citites or townships. If I be- llieved that 1t was wrong to allow the sale of liquor under any conditions, I would certainly be a national prohi- bitionist The only prohibition that could ever succeed would be prohibit tion that made 1t unlawful for any ture or import whisky or other strong drink. l have an idea that If the na- tional prohibitionists would make an exception in favor of beer and light wines it's presidential ticket would get
 an immense popular vote This seems to be year of new alignpents in poll itics-a breaking up of old party ties. It would have been a good year for the national prohibition ticket to strike
 out on new lines-anti- whisky and
 pro-beer and pro- wine.
 MT. Joshua Lowering of Baltimore, who is now registered at the Hotel Hillman. was the prohibition candidate for President in 1S96 He is still an
 ardent prohibitionist and if we are ever to have a prohibition President he is my type of a man for the White House. He is a splendid gentleman and from what l have known of him in other years he has some fine traits of statesmanship When MT. Lever ing ran for President he got much larger vote than Neal Dow. the great prohibitionist of Maine. who headed the prohibition ticket in 1880. MT. Dow s popular vote was only 1e.8O5. MT. Lev ering's popular vote was 132,207. In 1908 the prohibition vote was 253,S4O; so it is seen that national prohibition does gain. l would not be surprised to see the vote this year reach 400, 900.
 But that would be long way from the
 normal republican or democratic popu- lar vote"

The Trip to Montgomery

Prom all can hear, there will be a full turnout of the Chamber of Commerce committee appointed to go to Montgom- cry Wednesday to attend the meeting of the general committee appointed by the governor to consider the celebration of Alabamas centennial in 1919" said John l.. Parker. President Sibley of the Cham Der of Commerce has appointed a thor oughly representative committee. A trip to Montgomery is always pleasant and ori the civic excursions Birmingham people have better opportunity of getting well acquainted with each other than is of forded in any other way.
 Tt Is pretty generally agreed that there should be centennial exposition on a large scale. Huntsville. Mobile and Montgomery are all after the exposition but if it is to be an affair of considerable magnitude Birmingham is naturally the place for it."
