true that despite tine fact that Tubb can smile, that he is eonsiderate of the man who stumbled sometimes, that he openly admits that it is quite possible for man to differ rom him and be. at the same time, right he Is a prohibitionist Were all prohibitonists of the Tubb na- ture the opprobous title of hypocrite would no longer apply to the prohibition flock
 Air Tuhb, again returning to the truth that he is a republican, sits very quietly in his seat and casts his vote when asked to do so. He has made no spectacular fights on the floor. He has induged in no outlandsh oratory As a matter, un- like the average prohibtionist, he does not believe that he Is Demosthenes or even William l.. Yancey or d William Jennings Bryan. Unlike other prohibi- tionists, he does not believe that he Is a Diogenes, an Aristotle or a Solomon. As a matter of fact, the gentleman from Winston would introduce himself to a stranger as a young lawyer from a re- publican though honest county, who would serve his people were he able. Tubb formerly lived in Bessemer and Oakman, in Walker county After nov ing into Winston he was elected city at torney of Haleyville. AS indicated above at the present time he is a member of the legislature, a fact which in after years he will probably regret. At the present moment he is preparing to re- store to railroads the rights to exchange passes for newspaper advertising. And hs is neither a newspaper man nor a rail- road attorney. And he is not speaking in behalf of the daily newspapers. He would, however. help the railroads a bit and the rural press.
 Tubb is all right, according to the con "ensls of opinion, despite the fact that he is getting into trouble on the ground which involved in serious difficulty good

devise method of overcoming perma- nently this trouble. The common opinion here Is that as the canal has already cost the United States, directly or indirectly in excess of $iO0,O00.0O0, it is in the high est degree economical that a sufficient amount of money be appropriated to make the mastery of. this danger certain. New York state appropriated s10l 600 coo for the purpose of constructing a barge canal from Lake Erie to tidewater on the Hudson. Now it is discovered that this amount is not enough and in order to Save sl01, ,OO0.0O0 it may be necessary to eX- pend $30,000.000 more. There should be re- liance upon the judgment of Colonel Goethals and the other engineers, it is felt in this city, that science will be suf- ficient to master this difficulty and that the time is not distant when the canal will be safely and readily navigated probably to its full capacity.

E PLURIBUS UNUM
 IS MIR. CHESTER TUBE
Winston County Has Only Republican In State House of Representatives, But
 Tubb Doesn't Mind
By HUGH W. ROBERTS

Montgomery. February 2-tSpeeial) Some legislative wag. having read that historic rhyme pinned to the door of a certain King of England
 Here lies our sovereign lord, the King, Whose word no man relies on:
 He never said a foolish thing
 And never did wise"-
 think of something very bright to apply to members or the two houses.
 After a long while he decided that Ches- ter Tubb of Winston county was the man he should make famous. And. as a re- suit, when the representative of Winston entered the chamber on the morning fol- lowing, he was startled to find attached to his desk a plaeard bearing this in scription:
 "E Pluribus Unum."
 After worrying over the problem for long time. he finally smiled. He knew the cause of the placard For among all the so-called statesmen who sit in the lower house, he is the sole represen- tative of the grand old party
 It is said that despite his many good parts, he could not have gained his pres ent position of high rank and author ity had he hurrahed for any other two years ago than William Howard Taft For Winston county is strong on two scenery and republic. ans.
 Very fortunately, however MT. Tubl smiles a great deal Therefore, it i. without trouble that he stands on hi. own bottom. For had he come with grouch in that democrats acquired tn. great mapority of seats, or had he com, with a determination to battle agains everything that resembled in any respec democratic doctrine, he would have, O course, been dumped over into a ditch or carried out on the mountain top ant fed to the wolves.
 In view of the fact that Tubb is a re publican while everybody else is a demo crat. that "E Pluribus Unum' joke ma, have been apropos or pertinent. But whei 1t is considered that there are very few simon pure democrats in either brancl or the legislature, and in view of tn, the fact that Tubb is a member of tn, dominant. rampant and thoughtless pro hibition majority, the joke of the afore mentioned wag falls short. For it f

Pacific Coast Points Have Been Counting on Enormous Traffic by Way of the Canal to
 Eastern Seaboard
By HOLLAND

New York February 2.-(SpeciaL) )-Pres- adent Wilson is thought here to have been
 well advised when he began to contem- plate the postponement of the ceremonial and formal opening of the Panama canal until July 1. For it was stated that among the reasons which have persuaded him that it might be the better part to
The Birmingham age-herald., 1915-02-03

ing of measures which would prevent the slides in the Culebra cut.
 From the far west there come express sions of disappointment that any delay in the opening of the canal may seem advisable. Upon the eastern coast of the United States there is now only im- perfect knowledge of the great activity and development which are in progress in Alaska. Seattle is the gateway to Alaska and its rapid growth in popula- tion is in part due to it's advantageous situation with respect to Alaska It was expected that crude material in great amounts would be brought from Alaska to Seattle, and then transported by way of the Panama canal to the Atlantic coast. So. also. the Canadian lumber mer were counting upon heavy export of lumber from Vancouver by way of the Panama canal to the Atlantic ports, be- ing persuaded that they could in that way market some kinds of lumber even as far west from the Atlantic coast as Ohio at less prices than the American lumbermen would be compelled to charge.
 There have been in contemplation heavy shipments of wheat from the Canadian northwest by way of the Panama canal direct to Europe. Hawaii is prepared to ship Its sugar by the Panama canal to the United States, and it has been the expectation that great quantities of mag nestle mined in the only considerable mine of that kind in the United States would be constantly shipped from Cali fornia to Atlantic ports by way of the Panama canal.
 So. also Charles NJ. Schwab has pur- posed constant shipments of iron ore from Chile. in a fleet of steamers es- pecially built for that purpose. to Phila- delphia William R. Grace X Co. have large steamships which are to be added to their South American fleet and which will utilize the Panama canal.
 The railway managers of the United States ho longer apprehend that the Pan- anna canal may seriously impair the earn ing capacity of their roads. For the canal will float steamers whose cargoes are in many instances of a kind which would not be offered for railroad transporta- tion across the continent. The railroad managers learned a lesson after the na- tional Sault Ste. Marie canal was opened for navigation. For through this cana passes a tonnage greater in bulk than that which passes through the Suez cana which could not afford to pay railroad transportation rates. This crude ma terial however, has so greatly quick ened the steel industry that the railroads are receiving. or will receive in norma times a fair proportion of the prosperity 1t makes possible. That is likely to prove the case with respect to the Panams canal
