 SOUTH COMING HERE
All Government ReQuire- ments Have Been Met by
 Fair Officials

When the bureau of animal industry of the United States department of az riculture lifted the quarantine on cat Fair numerous requirements for the protection of the cattle from the tick were demanded by the government in spectors. Among other things all the stables, barns and grounds of the fair association had to be thoroughly dis infected under the supervision of gov ernment inspector, special chute for provided, and arrangements had to be made to guarantee that the cattle free from ticks did not come in contact with any cattle which might be infected.
 The government required that all straw and hay used for bedding for the cattle had to come from a territory which was not under quarantine and visions made regarding the source of the feed which was to be given the cat tle
 All these requirements have been met land the governments guarantee that this Is the case. has enabled the officers ol the fair to secure the finest cattle in the south for exhibition here. It was learned today that the largest single shipment of cattle ever received at ar

 Attractions

The unstinted praise bestowed on the Kennedy Shows by the newspapers of
 Nashville, Louisville. Toronto. Canada and other large cities where these attrac- tions have appeared at fairs this year
 has been highly gratifying to the off cers of the fair association here. Every one of the 30 shows of the Kennedy att fractions has come in for its full share of praise. Among the best of these is the royal hippodrome and horse show. This is said to be one of the most complete at- fractions of it's kind on the road and ap-
 peals to adults and children alike.
 Miss Clarice Fillis and her brothers, Henry and James present in this act their five high school horses perfectly trained, who perform many feats con sidered almost impossible for dumb an
 imal. Prince Henry. the horse holding the worlds record for standing high jump, and Mike the dancing horse, are included in this number.
 Probably the best feature of the hippo drome is the act of Tiny May & Co., Tiny May is a baby elephant and has the dictinction of being the only elephant in
 the world belonging to a Rotary club This honor conferred on Tiny May
 recently at Quincy, Ill.,, when she was decorated with beautiful blanket, em blaZoned with the letters. Tiny May Member Quincy Rotary club"

PA|PRY CASE GOES
 ID THE JURY TODAY
Verdict Expected This Aft ernOOn-GibsOn Asks for
 Death Penalty

Assistant Solicitor Walter S. Brewer will make the closing argument for the pros ecution in the trial of Henry Paipry this morning in the first division of the crim- inal court before Judge William E. Fort. verdict is expected in the afternoon.
 The trial of Paipry progressed rapidly yesterday. The defendant, who is &C., cused of having killed Nick Gulas. a business man of Ensey, last spring, watched the proceedings calmly and fre- quently coached his lawyers on aues- tions to ask the witnesses.
 In the morning session the state pre- sented its case. It consisted of the testi- irony of several eyewitnesses. who swore that Nick Gulas was shot in the back of the head while unarmeo. Medical tes- timony was to the effect that Gulas was shot in the back of the head. Other testi- mony for the state also was to the ef- fecr that Paipry, after shooting Gulas and hearing bystanders yelling for the police,
 eaped on a horse and attempted to es- cape
 IT. refutation of this the defense placed witnesses on the stand attacking the char acter of the dead man and also testifying that threats had been made by Gulas that he would kill Paipry. A small pocket knife was also placed in evidence. and it was testified that Gulas with the knife In his hand had entered the place of
 business of Papry and threatened the de- fer dent and the killing followed. Paipry himself took the stand late in the after noon and told of the killing. which he sts ted was in defense of his life. | Under cross examination by Assstan l Solicitor Walter Brewer the defendant ad | mitted that In the habeas corpus pro ceedings in which he attempted to secure | bond that the knife of Gulas was not mentioned. The prosecution also brought out the fact that the knife had never ap. peared before in any of the proceedings. | The prosecution also placed some of thu | leading business men and bankers o l Ehsey on the stand who testified to tn, I excellent reputation of the cead man. | White Gibson of the firm of Gibson & Davis opened the argument for the stat,
 after the closing of testimony last night. | Attorney Gibson talked for upward O.
 an hour and was followed by James Han
 by of the defense. After MT. Hanby's ar
 gument court adjourned until o'clocl this morning.

 I predict for him long and brilliant career in Congress-
 While l am receiving numerous sug- gestions from friends in every section of the state. l have reached no decision as to my future course, and shall not do so until I have had time to consider the situation from every angle. As all are aware. I am now in politics acci- dentally Soon after my withdrawal from the presidency of the university the of fee of cougresslnan-at-large was created. Friends suggested that I enter that race. I did so and was elected. Now that the office has been abolished, am as much at sea as before.
 For the present my chief ambition is to cooperate helpfully with President Woodrow Wilson during the remainder of
 my term in Congress. Many important
 measures will come up for consideration,
 among them being those relating to ship purchase, farm credits military prepared
 ness the raising of revenues to meet the deficit caused by the European war, na-
 tjonal aid for vocational education and
 others of almost equal importance.
 "But for the fact that six or seven
 democratic senators deserted President
 Wilson and joined the republicans in their opposition to the ship purchase bill.
 that measure would have become a law
 at the last session of Congress. I pre-
 dict that the shipping trust will not be
 able to defeat that measure during the
 next session of Congress"

 NEW UTILITY LAW Senator From Greene and Hale Spends Day in
 Birmingham

That the public 1itility commission having Jurisdiction oyer all public util- ity corporations of the state. would serve 8 good purpose and become a popular fixture in Alabama, was a statement yesterday of J. T. Denson state senator representing Greene and Hale counties who was a Birmingham visitor. Senator Denson is the author of the bill which is now law.
 At the present time. he added, "ev- erybody, happy in that the legislature has adjourned. is apparently prone to criticize the legislature. Everything that was accomplished Is criticized and among the accomplishments the pub- lie utility bill.
 However. in the long run the work of the legislature as whole will prove to be beneficent and will be indorsed I predict that the utility commission having jurisdiction over all public utility corporations. will become pop ular fixture in Alabama and that in tht years to come no one would thinl of it's abolition"

Is Really Half District

"The constitution and laws of the United States provide specifically that congress sional districts shall be based upon pop ulation, and that as nearly as possible the districts shall embrace the same pop ulation. The last census gave Alabama a population of 213S.O93. Therefore, each of the 10 districts should have been given a population of approximately 213,S09. The new district has population of only 145,- 522, which is about half that of the Sec ond district. Six of the nine districts with their very unequal populations were untouched.
 Certainly the constitutional require ment relative to population was flagrantly violated in the creation of the new half district In other words. 1t was a plain piece of political legislative manipulation so plain that its accomplishment. even in the rush, excitement, confusion and turmoil of the closing hours of the ses- sion, was amazing

out specialists in every line of en- deavor
 Successful automobile manufactur- ing is founded on specialization. Spc- cialiists are just as necessary to the motor car industry as they are Ito the treatment of human ills. Without these specialists the motor car industry could not have attain ed the great success which has been the wonder of the industrial world.
 In a factory such as our Toledo rlant where the output this year will greatly exceed the fifty thousand cars built last year, specialists are continually sought. We need and must have specialists in every branch of our work, from the sales man. aSer who is an expert in the most approved and modern methods of marketing our product down to the drill press operator whose sole duty is to clamp a piece of metal in q carefully prepared jig and exert . slight pressure on a foot pedal tO force through q rapidly revolving drill.
