WARD IS LOOKING
FOR OLIVE TREE
Wants to Have the Branches
Handy for Meetings of
Commissioners

The Barber-Truss controversy regard
ing the clemency granted by the com
missioner of public safety to certain
criminals seems to have silenced the en-
tire commission.
II have nothing to say about the mat
ter" was the comment of the majority of
the board.
1.-THE whole thing is disgusting to me"
says Mr.. Barber.
IT have had my say and meant every
word of it," says Mr.. Truss.
1t is understood that Mr.. Ward will
place an order with a local florist some
time today for an olive tree In view
of the recent developments between GER
tain members of the commission on the
line of revolving against the time worn
and frazzled phrase, peace at any price
numerous citizens have volunteered to
place several branches of the OLIVE tree
at Mr.. Wards disposal to use as he sees
fit at commission meetings.
There was a stream of citizens pour
ing into the offices of commissioners
Truss and Barber throughout the day.
Some smiled, some laughed, but all of
them had something to say on the sub
ject which they come to discuss.

MEET THEIR OBLIGATIONS

"But quite the reverse was true. AL
most without exception they are more
than ever determined to wipe out their
losses. The manner in which they have
arranged their obligations has been sur
prising and gratifying. IN fact, our bank
has shown a handsome increase in de-
posits during the past 60 days.
The farmers are studying as never be-
fore the best methods of farming. Di-
versided crops of many kinds have
helped most of them. They are prepar-
ing to come out of their losses the VIC
tors and to make even more money in
the future than they had made in the
past even under favorable conditions.
1.-THE same thing is true of the bust
ness men. They have realized the situaz
Non and have adjusted themselves to
meet conditions. They have learned many
was largely wasted and when bumper
crops do come they will be more prosper
Gus than ever before
Our industries have helped wonder
fully to keep the business men in good
shape. The plants throughout the county
and the pipe works and furnace at Holt
have had good pay rolls.
Tuscaloosa is not on the high tide of
prosperity at this time and she can never
be when the farmers are suffering heavy
losses, but she has rallied splendidly
under the blow and is progressing eau
tiously but surely. The proha bility of
large industrial developments being an
nounced for our city and district within
a short time makes every man in our city
an optimist. In fact, the present situa-
ton at Tuscaloosa goes to show that
you can keep good city down"
