Cbampion of State Sovereignty

The doctrine of states rights, which has ever been a matter of vital concern to the south, has no more stanch advocate in the United States Senate than John Sharp Williams of Mississippi. He has been rather quiet of late in the halls of national legis- lation, but whenever he does express himself his words are fraught with the sentiments of a statesman and command the consideration which they deserve.
 In discussing the question of female suffrage recently the Mississippi sen ator opposed a federal constitutional amendment in the premises and ap- preached his subject upon the broad principle of local self government, and he made his ideas known in no mistakeable terms.
 MT. Williams declared: But do not want you to take Mississippi, pry her mouth open, and drench her with med icine of your own preparation. Even if it is good medicine, even if it is going to cure her-granting that she is sick-she has a right to take her own medicine, to send for her own doctor, and trust her doctors who are her chosen state representatives, to prescribe for her." Then, rising to a higher plane of expression, he con- tinued: q tell you you are too much losing sight of local self government and it's value, and the right of com munities to regulate themselves. You to put the American people into dull, to put the American people into dull uniform caste. There are parts of this union which differ from each other just as much in traditions, ideals, daily life, thought, sympathies and sentiment as Alsace-Lorraine does from country in Norway, and there is no reason why they should be gov erned in the same manner, except in federal affairs and internal rela- tions."
 Thus did MT. Williams express the matter tersely and sounded a virile note of warning against the dangers, so dominant in recent legislation and trend of policy, of destroying state governments by merging them into national autonomy and destroying their sovereignty in transfer of their powers to federal dispensation.

Interesting Efficiency Tests

"Efficiency reports on the Pennsylvania railroad in 1913 covered the work of off cers as we'll as the rank and file," said a local statistician A compilation just completed shows that during the year more than 2000,000 efficiency tests were made to ascertain the observance of train safety rules. Out of this enormous num- Der of tests 99.9 per cent showed employees living up to the strict letter of the rules.
 This record accounts, probably. more year the Pennsylvania carried III 00o,000 passengers without single one of them being killed in a train accident.
 Records for the last year show that exactly 56929 tests were made in the ese of signals, and 99.4 per cent of them in- dicated perfect observance by employees. Out of 2705 signals set at caution, all but eight of the cases observed were duly obeyed. Sixteen thousand and more tests were made of observance by enginemen of fragments signals and in only Il cases did employees fail in their duty. One hundred and thirty-three thousand observations were made on rules for handling explo- sives and inflammables, and 152 infrac- tions were found. Observation was made in 137,175 cases to ascertain whether trains were leaving or arriving at stations ahead of time, and only Is derelictions were found.

WHY WILSON IS LIKED
From Leslie's Weekly.

From Leslies Weekly.
 The people like a President who does things. They like a spectacular admins tration. That is why they liked Roose- velt That is why they tired of Taft so quickly. Roosevelt was a 'smasher" and "buster." He made the wheels go round and the sparks fly. The people enjoyed him. Taft, with his judicial tempera- along quietly and to accomplish results In the old-fashioned way without thunder, lightning or pyrotechnics His work was effective, but noiseless, but the crowd President Wilson appreciates that the crowd likes the spectacular and he en- joys smashing precedents He likes to walk into Congress and read his own mes- sages. He enjoys giving the legislative branch of the government little rope for free pasture and then pulling it up with restrictions that he himself i'm. poses. All this pleases the people. They may do unless he does it to them.
 But every administration is finally judged from the long distance view. Iire- works may please the crowd but the fai reaching results of presidential policies will have to stand the test of the book keepers pen and pencil In the workshop and in the accounting room.

Ground for Optimism

Although March is not half gone, business men are turning their minds to crop prospects and discussing the probability of large harvests next summer. The recent snows through out the greater part of the country were just what the farm lands needed. In the northwest winter wheat is in fine condition, and in the south the ground is mellow and ready for planting.
 Last year we had bumper crops, and the money value of those crops was much greater than the money value of the crops in previous years. If moderately good crops are pro- duced this year business activity will result. Should we have bumper crops again there will be genuine boom throughout the United States.
 Between now and June prosperity will be distinctly in evidence not only in the south, but elsewhere; and If the June crop reports are favorable, record breaking prosperity will be due.
 Here in the Birmingham district every day witnesses substantial inn provement in industrial conditions. There is far more briskness than there was the first of the year. The com pletion of the big wire mill has naturally caused much elation in busi- ness circles, and the fact that the wire company will soon be ready to ship it's products in large quantities can but have the effect of enhancing property values in this city.
 As 1913 was Birmingham's banner year in the erection of handsome buildings, 1914 should witness new high record in general progress.

Weather North and south

"As St. Patrick's day approaches, recall the extremely cold weather that we mad often in Cineinanti on the 17th of March when I lived there many years ago. said John B. Burke, one of Bir- minghams long time and most esteemed citizens.
 "All through that part of the coun- try We had much wintry weather lil March, but it seemed to be particularly rough on St. Patrick's day. We Irishmen had monster parades in those days. and I remember one St. Patrick's day in par ticular when We all but froze.

Among the visitors to Birmingham are E. w. Abrams of Louisville, and John Grenville Mott of Chicago. They were guests of Henry Hiden at luncheon at the Southern club yesterday.
 MT. Mott and built an industrial plant
 here in the 90's,' said MT. Abrams. T
 came here frequently to look after our
 business, but we disposed of the property
 several years ago and I had not been
 here recently.
 "Birmingham's progress has been amaz-
 ing within the past five years It was about five years ago that I was last here. could see when I first visited this city that it had a large future, but it has grown to be such big and handsome city, far ahead of what I thought it would be in this decade, that I am struck with wonder. Birmingham will undoubtedly
 become the leading city of the south. In
 my opinion it will outstrip both Atlanta
 and New Orleans. Atlanta is great
 city, and will continue to grow rapidly.
 hut Birmingham is phenomenal and will
 be in the lead before many years. "As to Louisville. it is prospering end growing. Trade there is quite active, and I believe trade activity will be the rule throughout the country the rest of the year"
 | MT. Mott joined MT. Abrams in his en- | thusiastic observations on Birmingham and the Birmingham district. 'I had been l thinking that Birmingham would be the souths greatest city in the course ot | time, and now that have seen it after q 1 few years absence, I am sure it will be, | said Mir. Mott. '"The American Steel and Wire company's up-to-date mill which is just beginning operations here is an as set of far reaching importance for this l manufacturing center. Birmingham is
 discussed favoraby in Chicago, and as ] far as I know, all over the country; but
 it will be even more discussed in the next year or two. It is indeed the Pittsburs of the south and opportunities for profit l able investment here will now more thai l ever attract large outside capital"

merely one shape in which this tenden- cy to malformation manifests itself.
 The human body, in it's ideal condition, lis a symmetrical product. It consists of a multitude of parts, each developing
 not only with reference to itself, but in perfect harmony with the rest of the
 organism. A subtle influence, known as the power of organization, regulates this
 highly important matter. An arm. aileG a nose, d chin-any organ or member
 which one cares to name-does not de- velop independently, but preserves tm- portant relations with the rest of the
 body.1 Our four fingers and thumbs have constantly in mind the rights of one another; when one reaches a cer-
 tain size it does not keep on growing,
 but stops; if it still went on single finger would reach a length of several
 feet in lifetime.
 Any observant person. however. is aware that this law is constantly violated On al most any part of the body little inde- pendent growths start into existence.
 These are composed of minute groups of
 rebellous cells; small colonies which, for some reason ignore this law of de- velopement and start on an independ
 ent existence of their own. They serve
 ne physiological purpose; when harm less, as they frequently are. they are merely in convenient blemishes when dangerous, they end by destroying life.
 Mild manifestations of this lawless ten dency are the queer formations com
 monly known as warts and moles. There

 such as "wens.' that grow inexplicab1y,
 frequently upon the scalp, reach certain
 size then stop. This latter growth be-
 longs to the general class of tumors
 known as benign" They are benign simply because, after developing slug ishy to a certain point, their growth is mysteriously arrested. Between benign tumors and the most malignant cancer there is only this difference, that the latter have the power of unlimited
 growth. The true cancer once started upon it's riotous career, keeps on and digs deep into healthy surrounding tissue and
 destroys it, until finally, for a variety of reasons, it kills the patient In some | cases a benign growth, which has re- mained quiescent for years, develops a new vitality and becomes malignant There are those who maintain, though | this occurrence is certainly rare, that a harmless wart may sometimes develop l into genuine cancer. The point to be | brought out in mind is that all these | abnormal growths are related; that the only thing that makes one malignant and ! another not is this tendency to keep F stages, has another developement; it no longer confines it's activity to the orig inal seat, but starts new cancers ir other parts of the body. Certain groups
 of cancer cells break away from the pri-
 mary headquarters, escape into the blood stream, and start new growths elswhere.

It commences to look as if scientists are mere guessers at last, and that all which the present generation learned at school concerning seismology and astronomy must now be unlearned. The nebuar hy- pothesis of the formation of the sun and this earth has been set aside and solar systems are declared to have been formed by the contact oe two suns, the planets and their satellites being constructed out of old material The earth is neither molten mass nor compressed gas, but is 1 as solid as steel. The moon was never a portion of our earth, but was simply cap- tured by the latter and the holows which form our ocean beds were formed by hard bumps from other celestial bodies. Maybe so, but verify when doctors disagree who shall decide?

loss may be obviated may be assigned for a prevalence of the practice.
 Among these losses may be men, toned benzine, which has a decidedly distinctive value and upon the ex- pensiveness of which it is unnecessary to dwell. Nickname is another by-prod- uet which is wasted; and it is one of the chief constituents of Illuminating gas, a commodity which is always in demand Carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide are likewise lost in great quantities. They are the elements which contribute to soda water it's ef- fervescent character and the number of soda fountains in this community sufficiently attest the value of these wasted by-products.
 It is to be hoped that the day is not far distant when the genius of man will come to the assistance of the housekeeper and convert every stove, every range, every hearth and every chimney into a miniature by-product factory in order that the channels of wasted fortunes may be diverted from the air and directed into our pockets.

Thrift in Alabama and Georgia

T visited many towns in Alabama and Georgia several weeks ago and met with very good success in selling choice, stand ard books, and l have recently recan- vassed with success some of the same territory, said Octavius Coke. repre- senting a prominent New Orleans book agency.
 "on this recent trip found business in Montgomery remarkably active. In Doth an and in some of the smaller cities ev- erybody was buoyant and optimistic. Co., lumbus, Ga, is another city where pros perty is in full swing.
 Tt may be asserted without fear of contradiction that the farmers of Ala bama are better off now than they have ever been. The strides in the rural re- gions within the past few years have been simply wonderful"

reserve banks will be established. Birmingham's chances seem extremely bright.
 The district proposed for this inn mediate section, embracing Kentucky, Tennessee, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, Florida and that part of Louisiana east of the Mississippi river, is so logical from every point of view that it is hard to imagine that the organization committee would change it. Birmingham, being practically the hub of such a district and being at the same time great railroad center, is distinctly entitled to be a reserve bank city.

Wanted-A Genius

Almost daily scientists are making the announcement that every com munity of at least hundred thou sand population wastes in the homes of it's citizens a sufficient quantity of by-products of coal to pay for the amount of coal consumed, and leave w neat little profit in addition. f The statement is one of interesting portent to the citizens of Birmingham where coal is lavishly abundant, and it's value is enhanced by the fact of the installation here of large by, product factory.
 It is almost astounding what for tunes are hourly passing up our chim- neys and being dissipated in the air and naught but ignorance of the lact itself or of the manner in which the
