TWO EVENTS MEAN
 MUCH FOR SOUTH
Col. Thompson on Effects of War and Meeting of the
 Steel Institute Here

In discussing yesterday the effects of the meeting of the American Iron and Steel institute together with the Euro pean war on the future of Birmingham and the south, Col. N. F. Thompson said:
 "The European war has brought very forcibly to the entire south the necessity of providing larger markets for cotton. It should not be difficult now to show to the farmers of the south and those interested in the cotton trade here, the unwisdom of producing a crop four times larger than we can provide stable mar ket for. market that would not depend on foreign countries for its maintenance.
 .'As l see It the remedy lies in build ing more cotton mills in the south and manufacturing the raw material here at home. have always been an advocate

PARTY LEADERS
 ARE CONFIDENT Both Sides Expect to Carry Tenth North Carolina
 District

Asheville, N. C., October s1.-(Speciai) ) Bringing to a close tonight what has developed into one of the warmest con- eressional battles in the history of this, the Tenth North Carolina district lead era of both parties expressed themselves as being confident over the outcome of the general election next Tuesday James M. Gudger, Jr., incumbent seeks re-elec- tion as member of Congress, and the progressives and republicans have united upon Col. J. J. Britt, who was third assistant postmaster general under the Taft administration. Congressman Gud- ger has been in the district for several weeks and both he and his republican, stumped the Tenth district, which is com posed of the mountain counties.
 The democrats aroused the interest of Secretary of State William Jennings Bry- GIT in behalf of the candidacy of Con- gressman Gudger and the Commoner made an address here before an audience of several thousand at which time he urged the North Carolina democrats to stand together for Mir Gudger and thus also indorse the policies of President Will son.
 record breaking vote is expected to tc cast Tuesday. There is considerab bie feeling developing and the election will not pass off as quietly as has been the rule heretofore. In Asheville township alone 200 young men have just quaii- fed to vote and the democrats claim their ballots will go solidly for Congress- nan Gudger. On the other hand the supporters of the republican-progressiv candidate contend that many dissatisfied democrats-independe and the so-called silent vote"-will line up for their man ct the polls Tuesday,

UNCLE SAM SAVES
 BY COTTON CORD.
How Bids Were Submitted for Supplying the Post-
 office Department

Washington, October 21.-(Special) Quite dent will be made in the raw cotton surplus through the award of . contract for between 100000 and 100000 pounds of wrapping twine by the post office department to the Beaumont Man ufacturing company of Spartanburg, s. C., the accepted twine being a high-srade cotton cord, instead of the old jute twine. And not only is wider market opened for cotton, but also tho postoffice depart ment will save about sT0.oo0 by the substt tution of cotton for jute
 The change to cotton results from the departments decision to advertise a sec ond time for bids to supply twine during the contract period of 12 months begin ming November 1. Only two bidders an- swered the first advertisement. The Lud- low Manufacturing associates of Boston offered 2.60o,o00 pounds of jute twine at 0.12 per pound. The second bidder. the Henry c. Kelley company of New York, offered b00,O00 pounds of cotton cord far less than the department would need, at from .215 to 20 per pound
 It was the Judgment of the department that manufacturers of cotton cord were
 
 them. So the second advertisement was authorized and the returns from 1t fully Justified the departments view A second firm bid jute twine and IS offered cotton. Upon accepted samples the cotton bids which sought the department full order ranged from 0.175. by the Glencoe Cotton mills of Columbia, s. C., to the bid of the Beaumont company.
 The other principal bidders were the Bsbb Manufacturing companv of Macon Ga at from s.1565 to 0.1444; William E Hooper & Sons of Baltimore, 0.1Se to 0.l254: the Locke Cotton Mills company of Concord, s. C.. 0.17 to s.155o; the Juliette Milling company of Macon, Ga., 0.1499. The I,ud- low Manufacturing associates of Boston, IS in the first instance, bid for 25OOOOO pounds of jute twine at 0.112 a pound The Dolphin Jute mills of Paterson, N. J., offered 100000 pounds of jute at 10 a pound.
 Because of the greater yardage per pound Of cotton the bid of the Beau mont Manufacturing company, figured upon the basis of the departments entire supply. Is about s20,Oo0 below the bid of the Dolphin Jute mills The latter. however, offered less by half than the full quantity which will be needed The saving of $70,000 is based upon the cost Of the jute twine used by the department during the last two years by comparison with the total cost of this years con- tract. Of 100000 pounds of cotton cord the departments expenditure under the new contract will be somewhat more than $1So.Ooo. For jute twine the department spent in excess of $220,00O during the fiscal year which ended June 30 last
 Cotton cord of the quality purchased runs about nine yards to the pound, while jute runs only six yards to the pound.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1914-11-01

Of this policy, believing that the south should distribute the finished products of cotton in the markets of the world instead of the raw material and I be- lieve that this can be just as easily &C., complished and of far more benefit to the south Under that policy the law of supply and demand can be more readily regulated and now Is the golden oppor- tunity for the south to inaugurate a new era of cotton mill building throughout this section.
 Should the European war end tomor- row the first matter that will demand the energies and capital of those nations that are now in conflict, will be the re- building of their wrecked towns and cities as well as the rehabilitation of their deso- lated homes and lands. These matters must necessarily call forth the time and energies of the survivors for many years to come, while thousands of others who have been despoiled of their all by the war will become emigrants and these classes can be secured for the cotton mill labor and vacant farms of the south Here then is an opportunity for this sec ton to practically supply the markets or the world with cotton mill products and other products of her mills and fac tories, and 1t should not require more than ordinary foresight now to solve the cotton problem of the south for all time to come.
 ''As to the effect of the meeting of the American Iron and Steel institute on the future of Birmingham. I can see in it the hand of that destiny which have ever felt was hers by decree of natuce Birmingham will become tho iron and steel exporting center of these United States, and nothing can stay the sYeedy fulfillment of that destiny, since the'lead- CTS in those trades have now seen with their own eyes its matchless advantages in that field. Pittsburg has our domestis markets and these belong to heD by right of large invested capital, fortified by years of experience and established trade connections that cannot and should pet be disturbed, while Birmingham ,stI,ds at the threshhold of the distri5utibsi waters that extend to the nations oi the world. ready to take her producf Dmore econ omicalls than can be bslsewhere on this continent. I am prdld of the fact that l have lived to seq many of the predictions that I made years ago as to Birmingham's greatness more than full filled. while I believe a greater destiny
 lies open before her now than any Of tho old pioneers of this city ever dreamed of"

WALLACE ISSUES
 FOURTH REPORT Game Commissioner Sub- mits Statement Showing Conduct of Department

Montgomery, October H.-(Special.)-Ir ~'e fourth biennial report of the state cepa ftment of game and fish. John H. Wallace, Jr., commissioner, has surpas sed all previous endeavors and has given to the people of the state volume not only valuable as household guide and bool. of Information but a production of rare literary merit and execution.
 The states moral obligation to the peo- pie to conserve their natural resources is the underlying theme of Commissioner Wallace's recent report. just from the press, the author following the theory that all natural resources, when not reduced to possession, belong to the people in their sovereign capacity and can only be con verted to private ownership in comformi- ty with ,--e terms of the law.
 "The birds and game of Alabama are valuable" says MT. Wallace in his report ''They furnish to our people an elegant article of food. In the pursuit of the wild denizens much healthful recreation is af- forded. The insectivorous birds, designed by Wise Providence to hold in check certain natural forces that have de- teriorating effect upon the growing crops annually do labor for the farmers aggrre- gating millions of dollars
 'Let us consider the actual value of the quail alone to Alabama. In the 67 coun- ties of the state there are at least 100 hunters that each day during the open season of 120 days, bag not less than 10 quail. The total number killed, therefore during the season is S,04o,000 At 10 cents each, which is a ridiculously low price for the actual food value of quail, the an- nual quail crop is worth the enormous sum of sS0s, LOGO"
 Commissioner Wallace declares that since 1907 game and birds have increased in Alabama at least two-fold.
 The report shows that the balance to the credit of the game and fish depart ment fund on October l. 1914, was s35 la0. .64. which amount represents d clear protlt to the taxpayers of Alabama. Hinder the law creating the department of game and fish not one single dollar was appro- priated for it's maintenance, nor has tnere ever been one dollar expended from any other source except that arising under the provisions of the law creating the game and fish protection fund, for it's sup- port"

ROMANCE OF MEXICAN WAR
Soldier of Fortune Weds Red Cross
 Nurse Who Attended Him

The records of the Hollenbeck show that on a recent morning William Stansel of El Centro was assigned to room 228 and Miss Anna I.e Fevre of Tacoma to room 2l0 and that later in the day Mir. and Mrs. William Stansel were given room 104, says the Los Angeles special to the New York Sun
 MT. Stansel. who is cement contractor and the young woman met in El Centro three years ago and became friends Then they said goodbye and the young woman went to Mexico City to visit her brother, who Is a dentist.
 MT. Stansel also went to Mexico City to engage in the cement contracting busi- ness, but there was too much war going on for people to think about laying side walks. In the absence of anything else to do the young man joined the Madero army
 In battle near the capital the Ameri- can was wounded and was taken to a hospital in the city, unconscious and ap- parently near death. When he regained consciousness there was Red Cross nurse by the cot whom he recognized as the friend he had known in Fl Centro.
 Perhaps MT. Stansel would have re- covered from the wound under the care of any other nurse. but he thinks that the sympathetic care he received from this particular one saved his life.
 When the soldier of fortune had re- covered and was leaving the hospital he asked the nurse an important question. She said that she would have to ask her rarents In Tacoma before she could give him definite answer
 I'll tell you what let's do." MT. Stansel said to her. You think about this for one year. Tn the meantime we will not com lnunicate with each other. When the time is up I will telegraph you and you may answer with yes or mo-
 A few weeks ago MT. Stanse tele- gfaphed the young woman fin Tacoma and received in reply the one word. "Yes." They met here and were married. They have gone to Fl Centro to establish their new home

New District Created

Sheffield, October 31.-(SpecialD Announcement was made today that F. H. Craig, commercial agent of the Southern railway for the Chattanooga Memphis district, will restrict his op- erations in the future to the Tri-Cities, thus virtually creating a new district with headquarters in Sheffield. This step becomes necessary because of the growing importance of the traffic cen |. tcring in the three towns, and is an official recognition on the part of Southern railway officials of the pro- gress which Is being made in this vi- cinity. This change is regarded as a distinct promotion for MT. Craig, as 1t carries an increase of salary, although his title remains unchanged. J. L. Har- ris. formerly chief clerk to Mir.

The Last Wild Pigeon

from the New fOrk Tribune.
 Accordingto the Audubon Society, the last wild pigeon in this country died in the Geological Gardens at Cincinnati Septem- her l. Within the memory of men now living vast flocks of these birds actually darkened the sk.es during their migratory flights. Unrestricted killing by guns. snares. traps. wiped them out.
 This should carryits own warning to those who are fighting the enforcement of the federal law for the protection of migratory birds What happened 70 the wild pigeon might we'll happen to the quail the partridgs. the wild duck and other game birds already growing fewer, and the countless song birds and insect eaters. This would be poor country if that were permitted to happen.
