Business District Expanding

"When the Jefferson County Savings bank builds it's skyscraper building on the corner of Second avenue and Twen- ty-frst street, the business district of Birmingham will be materially benefited, for 1t will mean an important step in expansion," said prominent member of the chapber of Commerce, 'rhe Ro- den Hotel company took a good step by utilizing an Eighteenth street corner, which broadens the business district in that direction. Now the Jefferson Coun- ty bank building will have the same eff feet east of Twentieth street.
 When the Jefferson County bank builds majority of Birmingham banks will be elegantly house. The American Trust, the First National, the Birmingham Trust, the Jefferson County, and the Steiners all own their own buildings.

A Wonderful child

"In my 27 years experience In the amusement business I have never seen a more talented child than the one who played at the Forsyth in Atlanta recent ly. and who is the star of Rutan's Song Birds" said Hugh Cardoza, the general agent of the Wells Interests in Atlanta, In a letter to Manager Semon. "The act was one of the most successful that has ever appeared at the Forsyth. and the child was by all means the best juve- nile that I have seens

 At least two considerations combined to interfere with resumption of activity on the stock exchange. These were the so-called money trust investigation and the approaching presidential convention at Chicago Both of these affairs natu- rally exerted very diverting, If not un- settling influence. As for the money trust hunt. that came at a peculiarly inoppor- tune time and served to create unrea- soning prejudice rather than solve serious problems In a calm and rational manner Fortunately the inquiry has been prac- tically postponed until after election, when there will be less temptation to use the proceedings as political capital So far as the Chicago convention Is con- cerned Wall street shows much less un- easiness than at any time during the last few months. Political possibilities, however, are notoriously uncertain; hence the restraint upon trading is likely to continue until the outcome can be rea- sonably foreseen.
 ''There are other influences of import ance which also contribute to inertia. Chief of these is the crop situation. The season is late. especially in the south. In some sections conditions are very fa- vorable, notably in the north Atlantic states. in the far western and north western states. In other sections the outlook on June 1 was not as satisfac- tory as might have been desired
 "All things considered, the outlook financially and commercially is reason- ably satisfactory Some temporary hes itation may be caused by the drawbacks referred to above, also by the approach of summer quiet. but the general tend ency of affairs is progressive. Much re- lief to the business community would be afforded by an early adjournment of Con- gress. but 1t now looks as if the session might last well into August. affordng opportunities for all sorts of harmful po- Iitical, demonstrations.

BEN JOHNSON FOR PRESIDENT.

NThe Herald is in receipt of the
following communication:
McHenry, KY, March 1, 1912.
EditorsHartford Herald:-I arise
to place in nomination for President
of the United States the. Hon. Ben
Johnson, of Kentucky. l hope you
can see the matter as / do. | be-
lieve he is most excellent material
and also n of, If not the one most
likely to carry our party to victory.
Some may object because he is a
Catholic, but such objection is mar
row and silly. If his religious views
are aired, it would only strengthen
him before the nation. l hope your
paper will come out strong for him.
Yours very truly,
]. p. AUSTIN.
The Herald thoroughly appre-
ciates the deep ~earnestness and
worthy sentiment of Mr.. Austin in
thus proposing the name of our
able and efficient Congressman, Mr..
Johnson, in connection with the
highest Office within the gift of the
people of this great country. Here
in the old Fourth District, where
the people know him, it is consider
ed that there is nothing too good
for or beyond the talents of the
Hon. Ben Johnson. His splendid rec
ord in Congress has brought him
prominently before the people and
won for him a distinction at the
same time enviable and lasting. He
is a man of the people and for the
people. He considers no personal
too great for the good of
his constituents. His time and his
he considers as simply be-
longing to them. He has no supe-
riors and few equals, in point of in
ability and fine sense, in the
halls of Congress.
The people of the Fourth District
could i'll afford to spare his splendid
personality as their representative
in Congress, but the nomination of
Austin will meet with their in
and hearty approval. Mr..
Johnson would make an ideal Pres
.dent-able, unselfsh, worthy. His
experience and his talents eminent
Iy fit him for the place. 1t has been
demonstrated that the people care
title about the particular religious
of their Chief Executive, just
he is honest and capable. We
heartily second" Mr.. Austin's plea

regulation by the Government than
that embodied in the different ex-

VIGOROUSLY high for the service

stockholders, evidently upon a ba-
sis of "watered" stock, as they have
only a small portion of tangible as
