Wants Suburbs Representetl

To the Editor of The Age-Herald
 The recent city election has thoroughly demonstrated the fact that, what is termed old Birmingham proper, has no idea of allowing the suburbs to have any voice in the affairs of tho city, only in so far as we stand together and get it over their loud protests and walls. Since Birmingham has been under commission form of government, we have had no say whatever. the only thing that we are supposed to know or do. is to vote an- other bond issue when the city's finances are getting to a very low ebb, or are ex- hausted entirely.
 We have danced so long to this kind of music until they feel that all they have to do is to pull the string and see the monkey dance," and when we rebel and rise up in our wrath, as it were, and SUD- port man from the suburbs, as we have done in the last few days, they are loud in their protests and denunciatons of our candidate and our methods, and claim that our man was a republican. Whether he Is or not, do not know, but do know that their candidate and their idol, has, to my certain knowledge, advocated and dsheu the democrats Of JenerSon county to bolt the regular democratic nominee in a public speech, within the last dozen years, and vote for one, who proved to be the lemon of the age, as against one who was and is without a blemsh political or otherwise. am and always have been a democrat, and will always cast my vote for the democrat when things are equal or anywheres near equal. However tine time has passed for me to just vote for any kind of a man. whether he possesses any qualifications whatever, for the posi- tion. except that he bears the democratic trade mark as construed by a coterie of politicians. There was a time when of necessity this kind of politics had to work and win. but not at this day and time, and there are thousands of democratic

One of the recognized necessities, in work of all kinds today is cooperation. Every field of industry clamors for it, large industries are making concessions to their employees to solicit cooperation. The club spirit is used to engender CO., operation.
 Its value is apparent on all sides and no successful undertaking can thrive without it. That it is necessary in the work of social agencies cannot be denied. livery social agent in this or any other big city should be regarded as member of a big family, working for the interest and alleviation of a larger family. All dependent upon each other, and without this spirit the whole social work is lost.
 Birmingham is fortunate in having many social agencies abroad, but on all sides has come the complaint that these agencies are not working with the proper cooperation
 1t is necessary that each worker recog- nize the proper place to cooperate and that each institution strengthen the chain with desire to aid every other institu- tion.
 Through the Social Workers associa- tion. the greatest good can be attained. Here is the logical place to solicit for your work and from your co-workers, to advance ideas for the betterment of all work, to introduce your problem and by discussing it assist all others. This healthy discussion of the things that trouble you may break down the timidity in others. This winter the Social Work | CTS association is planning to do great things for the betterment of social agen- cies, for more cooperation, and toward a survey of conditions in general and in dividual work.
 An attractive programme has been planned and is herewith given in letter sent to all the members of the associa- tion.
 A big constructive programme is to occupy the attention of the Birmingham Association of Social Workers for the next several months.
 The association means to discuss the concrete problems which await solution in our community. Our aim is to prepare for recommendations to the city and county officials and others interested, a comprehensive system of social service. one that will embody all phases of social work and the necessary machinery, both goernmental and voluntary.
 To make such thing possible, much information must be gathered and there must be frank and open discussion of all sides of every question by people who hold different points of view. In order to facilitate work, all members new and old, are to be divided into five or more groups or committees, each group being held responsible for the programme and recommendation on one topic.
 A partial programme has been ar ranged. These topics, all of which are meant to be very comprehensive, are listed on the enclosed card. Please indi- cate by figures, one and two. in which topics you are most interested, sign your name and mail to the secretary.
 Meetings will probably be held on the

ANNIsTON
bartOn Case to go to Jury In Afternoon. Congressman HuddlestOn Addresses odd Fellows

Anniston, October 22-The case of William Barton, former United States revenue officer, charged with the mur- der of Jack Holland, patrolman, will probably go to the jury this afternoon. The case. has been one of the hardest fought legal battles in recent years in Calhoun county. and considerable interest has been shown as to the out come.
 Barton and J. c. Ivans, also a deputy United States revenue officer, went to the restricted district to find law vio- latcns on the night of December 23. 1915. Some trouble arose in one of the houses ever money matters and the police were called. Patrolman Holland came to the house and arrested Ivans.
 After he had taken I~1ns from tn. house, shooting scrape occurred which resulted in the death oe Holland and the serious injury of Ivans. The state showed that Barton had followed Hol- land and Iyans from the house and had rullcd out his gun whe.. he got onto the Porch. Witnesses a,so testified that the gun found in Batrcn's valise the next day had been recently fred
 The defense yesterday afternoon in- troduced more than q dozen character witnesses from Cleburne county the home of Barton, who testified to his good character. These witnesses were substantial farmers, professional men and county officials.
 When 1vans was put On the stand he testified that as soon as he was arr rested, lie gave up his gun to Holland. Holland then led him from the house and when he asked the policeman to give him a chance to make bond and told him that he was a revenue officer, the policeman refused and kicked and abused him. He said that Barton came up at this time and told the officer not to treat his prisoner that way. Hol- land, according to Ivans, then told Bar ton to attend to his business and at the same time pulled out his gun. Ivans said Barton started back few steps and the shooting started. Ivans swore that Holland fired the first shot.

Davis conferred while here with Judge D. c.

building could probably be constructed
+, for something like $4,000. The neces-
sary equipment would probably cost
not more than $1,000. II is not neces-
sary, however to invest this much
money in a cheese factory, as frame
building of smaller size than given
above could be built for considerably
less.
"The price a cheese factory must
pay for milk is governed by the price
received for cheese, by the skill of the
cheesemaker, by the local demand for
whole milk and sweet and sour cream.
1t is quite likely that cheese factory
in Oklahoma would have to pay at
least $3.50 per hundred for milk.
Cheese is usually kept in the cur
ing room at least four weeks before
being sent to market, so that by the
time it reaches the customer II is
probably six or eight weeks old The
average price of cheese on the prin-
cipal markets is now about IA cents.
At the present time 1t is quite likely
that if cheese were sold locally as
much as IS cents per ponud could be
expected
"The question is asked as to the
advisability of trying to ship milk ia
from other towns. Since milk of the
highest quality is required to make
first class cheese, it is quite likely
that cheese factory would be unable
to ship in milk. 1t may be said In gen.
eral that unless the community can
assure a prospective owner OF cheese
factory the milk from at least 200
cows, and also assure him that the
milk will be of the highest quality,
there is no use of considering the To-
cation of a cheese factory in that
neighborhood"

OFFICER MURDERED

A. T. Hopkins was murdered by
robbers early Sunday in his office at
Lawton. He was a large horse deal
er and always had money about his
person, and had drawn large sum
late Saturday for use early Monday
morning. Said Col. Hornaday OF this
city, an old time friend
"Al Hopkins was a pioneer in Ok.
lahoma and a co-worker with Heck
Thomas and Chris AIadsen and well
known in Guthrie. He was neryy
officer, hard fighter, but an honorable
enemy, respected alike by friend and
foe. His later career was varied with
several accusations of violations of
prohibitory and gambling laws, but
he had big heart in his big body.
With some faults he was an energetic
town builder and public spirited cit
izen, free hearted to fault, never
turning down an appeal for personal
or financial aid to friend or foe when
he heard an honest, candid appeal
He was quite wealthy, and leaves a
