state.manliks Document

The letter of Governor O'Neal, declining to send a delegation to Washington to lobby for the Kenyon bill is statesman like document,' said an old citizen. He tells those who had asked him to do so that Alabama is we'll and ably represented by two senators and nine congressman and her people fully trust in their judgment. He further points out that the Kenyon bill is unconstitutional or at least that there is great doubt of its validity.
 ITO me it is remarkable that in the late election MT. Chain, the prohibition can didate for President, obtained only 160,0o0 votes out of about 100000, while in Ala bama alone there are about 40,000 prohibit tionists, who claim to be democrats and keep the state in a constant broil about their pet scheme of state wide prohibi- tion.
 If they are really democrats, they must be in favor of local option, becausce the democratic party has always been in favor of that solution of the liquor question. More than that, nearly every man of them in this stato voted for Wilson, well know ing that his opinion on the subject was and is exactly that of Governor O'Neal
 
 and of the party.
 ''Why, then, if it is a moral question, as they say it is, do they vote for a local optionst to be President against a can didate who was in favor of nation wide prohibition? Why do they retain their membership in a party that is now and has always been in favor of local option and fight against the only party that has ever advocated complete prohibition? Il confess that I cannot see the morality of such contradictory actions. It may bel good politics from a certain point of view, but it is not candid or sincere.
 q do not object to their efforts to bring about state wide prohibition. but surely they should make their fight under their own flag and not under that of the de- moeracy."

The Great yalae of Cotton Seed

sThe general public has little idea per- haps, of the wonderful advance in the quality of cotton seed oil, and the various foods into which cotton seed enters," said c. w Ashcraft of Florence. president of the Interstate Cotton Seed Crushers' as- sociation, who is spending 6 few days in Birmingham.
 'The oil is now so refined that all trace Of unpleasant odor is absolutely gone; and not only is cotton seed oil as it is refined today wholesome, but the butter made from 1t, when properly colored with vegetable compounds, is. particularly appe- tizing. The old oeomargarine was healthy enough, but 1t was not appetizing, and many people would not touch it. But the butter made now of 80 per cent cotton seed oil and 20 per cent of animal fat is a very superior quality. It not only looks like butter, but 1t tastes like butter, and is much better than a great deal of the high priced butter.
 Creamery butter is so high nowadays that it can be used only by the rich. The butter made of cotton seed will enable people of moderate means and the poor to indulge in first class article at little cost.
 There are many by-products of cotton, but the product which will be most gen. orally used Is this fine butter of which speak. Cotton seed brings about 40 cents a pound. but with all it's high class by-products it will eventually bring s1 pound"

The Iron Market

Every furnace in the country is rushed to fill it's orders and most of them are unable to keep all their customers eatis- fed" says Matthew. Addy & Co.'S Cincin- natl report. This is the real feature of the iron market today, consumption of iron that is taxing the resources of the country to supply. No iron is being piled in foundry yards, it is being melted as fast as received.
 Current sales of pig iron have been of large volume. The steel making irons are in heavy demand and there seems no limit to the necessities of the mills. Foundry irons have been sold in smaller lots, prin- cipally here and there, to fill in where con sumers had underestimated their needs
 'As for the coke situation. it is the same old, unhappy story. There is growing shortage of labor and a shortage of cars. dozen furnaces of which we have knowledge have been obliged to shut down for as much as 24 hours at a time, owing to a lack of coke. We anticipate that the first great storm of the winter will tie up the coke fields and make the situation worse"

many negroes. A married sister who iises in Chicago and has lived there TOT many years has eoiored servants. Some yeais ago she had Swedish servants, oot sne says now that she prefers colored eooA and colored house maid.
 T was born in the south, and nave lived in the south all my life, and nave always appreciated the negro as a laporer and a house servant. but on my trips l have been impressed with the fact that the negro in the north is much more in- cIined to be impudent than the southern negro. That is easy to explain Many or the northern people, because of their over wrought sociological notions, have put themselves on a social equality with the negro. The southern negroes like. the southern whites as rule, and vice versa And the white people and the colored peo- pie will get along together because they understand each other. When northern .ers' relations to the negro are similar to those in evidence in the south there will be a minimum of friction in that section and it will be well for all"

Packages By Parcels Post

The parcels post sytem is but a month away, and it is really revolu- tion in package transportation. All packages are to be delivered at post offices or sub-postoffices, and then the government will deliver them to consignees.
 Then, too, Postmaster General Hitchcock wants every postoffice located with reference to the railroad station. This city has two railroad stations, and the spirit and moral inn port of MT. Hitchcock's instructions cannot be readily discerned. The post office in this city is in state of flux and it may be relocated more with reference to the railroads.
 The fact that four express com panies have dominated package deliv- cry in this great country to this late
 " is reflection on our methods of ping business. The four express com- anies have heretofore been bigger
 the governments eye than 90,000,- 100 of people. True, the four express ompanies were backed up by the ailroads, but even then 90,000,000 of jeople should have been able to se- iure parcels post law long before New Years day of 1913. The people nave waited patiently and all the stumbling blocks that can be put in their way cannot repeal the Bourne law. It will be changed from time to time, but it will not be repealed while rass grows and water runs.

THE PERFECT BRIDE

Tokyo Cor. London Telegraph. Mir Ichiba is a well known Japanese author, better known, however, for his than for his literary ability. His first wife died in April last, after ID years patient endurance of the literary temperament, and the mourning spouse immediately set about finding another partner.
 s H commissioned all his friends to keep their eyes open for him, and gave a stand ing order to the various matrimonial agen- cies in the capital to report immediately any likely candidate for the honor of be- ing the second Mrs. Ichiba.
 He laid down six primary conditions which the successful candidate would have to fulfill. They were:
 1. The lady must have passed through all the various conditions of life and the various phases of society. from A to z, as only by ripe experience can perfection be attained.
 ?. Except the clothes she should stand up in she should have no worldly posses sions whatsoever.
 8. She must be severed from her family entirely.
 1. She must contract to keep the kitchen and bathroom absolutely spick and span and ready for instant use.
 5. Her style of hairdressing must be a la mode Japonaise-no foreign fri1ls, pads, switches or toupets to pc permitted.
 6. She must stand feet high in her tabi, and her limbs and body be 'of a proper plumpness" to face, features and other points, these were not to mat ter.
 As might be expected, Mir. rchiba had considerable difficulty in finding his Juliet, and looked over 47 candidates be- fore being satisfied with a young lady 2S years of age.
 Priests, middlemen and registrars were all barred from the marriage ceremony, as were wedding guests and everybody else who might be presumed to have had the right of entree. The bridegroom stole out and bought two pints of sake, with which the wedding cups were filled and the ceremony celebrated. Thereafter the bridegroom appeared at the door of his house and announced to those waiting that they were married, and there was no need to wait further, as he did not propose to spoil his wedding day by reception.

Twelve Hundred Foot Piers

New York's prestige as seaport Is endangered because it has no piers at which ships 1000 feet long, more or less, can dock. But the big town is to have them, and Dock Commissioner Tomkins has already submitted plans for six whole and two half piers, be- tween West Forty-fourth and West Fifty-seventh street, 1900 feet long, 130 feet wide, and with slips $50 feet wide between them. The dredging, the commissioner thinks, should be done to the 45 foot plane. The cost would be $32, 2,756,146.
 This is business, and it meets May or Gaynor's idea that the proposed new piers should be longer than any boats that have been built or that may be built in the near future.
 The railroads were not particularly considered in this proposed uptown location of the landing places of the biggest and best ships. They are left to get to the waterfront as best they can. No doubt they will find a way to get to the spot where rich ton mage awaits them. At any rate the river is open to them. New York must have long piers, and pretty soon it may feel the need of channel down to the 45 foot plane also.
