HObsOn Looms On Political Horizon.
 May Oppose BdnRhedd For Congress
Electric Rdilzvdy Will Make
 Birminghdn q River Point
No River Freight Unoaded Tuscaloosa City Limits States Prominent Attorney-Few Miles Make Little
 Difference in Switching Charges

If the city of Birmingham had ade- quate connections with the Warrior river, the benefits to the city and dis trict would be almost if not as great as if the stream actually touched some part of the city. No matter where the river runs, the great majority of the industries, the wholesalers and other large shippers, would have to pay a switching charge to get their freight to and frcm the river. The construc- tion of @ highway to the river and the addition of an electric railway with req sonable rates for switching cars to and from the stream, would make Birming ham in every sense of the word, a river point.
 These are the ideas advanced by Adlai $. Grove, a prominent attorney of Tus- day, and they are based upon the exper- fence of Tuscaloosa shippers who have used the river. Tuscaloosa is today mak- ing considerable use of the river, yet none of the traffic is loaded or unloaded in the city limits. The freight is han died at Riverview, several miles above the city and is hauled to and from Tuscaloosa by the electric street railway company.
 In discussing this matter, MT. Grove said While it is, of course better for city to be located on the banks of the river, the fact that the stream is some miles distant should not prevent it from getting most of the benefits of water transportation. Tuscaloosa las not yet provided facilities along the river 1 in the city limits for the handling of freight, yet many shippers there are

 ing campaign, despite the fact that it has not been so very long since he was severely attacking the President They profess to have information showing that Hobson has decided to uphold the administration during the coming cam paign, but will lay his plans for be- coming a national leader of the party in 1920. It is claimed that Hobson expects that within the next four years the causes of prohibition, woman suf- frage, and national preparedness will have grown to such an extent that he will be the logical man for the pres- idency.
 In this connection, it is claimed that Hobson and Bryan are working toward the same end, except for the peace at any price, ideas of Bryan, which are diametrically opposed to those of Hob son. Each, however, is said to have designs on the presidential nomination four years hence, relying upon the changes in sentiment of the people and the growth of the respective ideas ad- vocated by each to place him in the leead for the nomination.

HouU Tluo Men
 Cured LaG Grippe

'Last winter I suffered with ter- rible cold and a case of la grippe" writes E. C. Rhodes of Middleton, Ga. 'When getting we'll of la grippe I still had a hacking cough and for several months could get no relief. Finally I began taking Foley's Honey and Tar and soon I was well of both cough and cold and it never re- turned"
 F. G. Prevo, Bedford. Ind, writes: "After having an attack of Ia grippe it left me with g. severe cough and I tried everything. I lost in weight and got, so thin it looked, as though Foley's Honey and Tar. Compound and two bottles cured me. I am now well and back to normal weight"
 Foley's Honey and Tar Compound is n healing family remedy and seldom fails to relieve coughs, colds, croup, whooping cough, raw and inflamed throat, tight and sore chest, irritat- ed tickling throat and bronchial coughs.

day last week. about 900 tons of mer-
 chandise were received by Tuscaloosa.
 firms via the Warrior river A few days
 before that, another boat brought ovJ
 tons. All of this traffic was handled at Riverview, several miles up the river
 from Tuscaloosa.
 NO wharves or adequate fa ao''ities for
 handling the freight have yet been built
 at Riverview, but the shipments are be-
 ing made and the people of Tuscaloosa
 and the business men are getting the
 desired results. The freight is loaded
 from the barges and placed in freight
 cars on the tracks of the Tuscaloosa Rail-
 way and Utilities company which oper-
 ates the street railway system. These cars are then switched to the stores
 or the plants to which the freight is
 consigned The same plan is used when
 freight is shipped from Tuscaloosa down the river.
 No matter where the river runs, it would be necessary for the great ma- jority of the firms and industries of Birmingham to have the cars switched from their plants to and from the river. Since the loading and unloading is one of the chief items of expense, the diff ference of few miles in the distance the car is hauled does not materially add to the switching charge. It seems to me that with the highway to the river, and the electric railway, connecting with all
 the stores and industries of the Brming ham district, practically every benefit which would come from actually being on the banks of the river would come to Birmingham.
 ."Tusoaloosa, of course, is on the banks of the river but due to the lack of
 wharves Tn the city, and the steep bluff which will make it necessary for low l grade road to be built Rivervew has been made the terminal point for the present Tuscaloosa is now working on plans for the construction of municipal wharves right ill the city, and the com- pletion of a good road with very low grade to these wharves.'

'MASTERFUL SERMON BY DR. JOHNSON OF
 HIGHLANDS CHURCH
Christ Has Bridged the Diff ferences Between the Oc- cident and the Orient,
 States Preacher,

Rev. Albert Sidney Johnson, D. D..f the new pastor of the South Highland Hres- byterian church, preached two masterful sermons yesterday at Il a. m. and at 80 p. m. Both services were atte4ded by large congregations.
 At the morning service pr. Johnson took for hfs text: 'The Master is come and calleth for thee.' John xxi, 2S.
 Dr. Johnson said in part:
 The title here is universal and ab- solute. He is not the Master of a day or a generation, of a family, or a ,na- ton. He is the Master absolute of the universe and the world has not outgrown His authority. Truth has been named the daughter of Time, and He has suffered nothing from the onslaught of time. Be- ginning with Celsius, down throughout the present time. destructive criticism has analysed every claim He has made and His claims have held. Some have put Him not above a local rabbi; some have put him as the ethical teacher, with Buddha and others; some have tried to steal the glory of His redemp- tive work, but He stands. the same yes terday, today and forever He has bridged the difference between the Oc- cident and the Orient and men of all nations have crowned Him Lord of All He is omnipotent, He is the unchange- able, sympathetic Christ. This is the Master that 'calleth for thee It is the call to action. It is clear and decisive. No man can misunderstood it's terrible import. It comprehends the throwing in of life, ambition, money. personality and everything that we possess
 Tt is a call to prayer. Prayer is dyna- mic, it is making competitor with forces that are superhuman and divine. It is using the latent powers that God is will ing to unloose to the man who seeks It is a call to repentance-to a realiza- tion that there is but one name,' and that repentance toward God and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ as the Redeemer of the World, is the only avenue of ap- proach for wayfaring men.
 "I1e is the Master universal because of what He is.
 ''Who is the image of the invisible God the first born of every creature: For by Him were all things created that are in heaven, and that are in the earth, wis., ible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or pow CTS; all things were created by Him and for Him.'-Col. 1:15-16.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1916-02-07
MASTER UNIVERSAL

He is the Master universal for what He has done.
 And, having made peace, through the blood of His cross. He bare our sins in His own body on the tree We are His, by right of purchase. Again, He is the Master universal because of what He will do. Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither hath it entered into the heart of man. what God hath laid up for those who love Him. This is the Master that 'calleth for $hee"

EnoIand's Mysterious bitches.

The discovery of a covered way
across Wilmington hill, near Eastborne,
has recently been made by Fl. S. Toms
Of Brighton. A covered way" con-
sists of ditch with bank on either
side which runs across exposed 5rows
of the downs, generally connecting the
head of one valley with that on the
other side of the hill.
1t is thought that these "ways" were
used in ancient times to enable persons
to cross over the downland ridges with
out being seen. They were formerly
taken to be defensive lines, but against
this theory is the fact that the ditch
is banked on both sides. 1t has been
proved that the covered ways" of the
South Downs are decidedly older than
the Roman occupation.-Londcn Times.

VIEWS OF THE WAR
; AS CLEANED FROM
OFFICIAL REPORTS

For the first time in weeks no
change Of Importance was reported
in any theatre Thursday. The most
violent fighting took place on the
western end of the British salient, on
the Somme. Six times the Germans
advanced in force in desperate effort
to bend back the British lines north
west Of Pozieres. London reports
that all of these assaults were re-
pulsed with heavy losses, and that the
British in turn captured about 6OO
yards Of trenches northwest or Bazen
tin.
An interesting feature OF the stu
alton on the western front is that the
Germans, contrary to their usual prac'
tice. have so far made no attempt 10

where the French and British claim to
have captured nearly three miles OF
trenches on Wednesday. The French
are busilv consolidating their gains,
and report no action of Importance on
any section of their front. including
the Verdun region.
Some mystery exists as to the Situa'
ton on the eastern front. For two
consecutive days the Russians have
confined themselves to brief state,
meuts that nothing Of Importance had
occurred. The Austrian and German
war offices have been almost equally
communicative Tho only fighting
mentioned by Vienna was the repulse
