LA TOILETTE MAY BOLT
Zeal To Swing Wisconsin To Wilson
On fGOt, 1t Is Said.

A sensation has been caused in State
political circles by the announcement
e. an effort, backed by the closest as
sociates of Senator La Toilette, to make
4 deal with tie various county Demo-
cr2tS for support by Democrats and
progressive Republicans Of merged
ticket with Wilson for President, La
Toilette for Senator and Burt Will
ans, Democrat, for Governor.
In view of the fact that La Follette's
speeches so far have been a defense of
his voting for the Adamson bill and the
Democratic tariff, it is regarded as evil
dent that he Will Try to swing the
State to President Wilson.
The Democrats, however, have de-
clared, wherever the arrangemnt has
become known, that they will stand by
their party candidate, W. F. Wolfe for
Senator and will make it a straight
party campaign with no deals involv-
ing treachery to the Democratic candi-
Dispatch to the
Washington Post.

Activity in the Building Trades

In nearly all cities last year was one of the lean ones in the building trades, but 1916 will be one of the best
 With the advance of spring the building contractors of Birmingham find their business increasing and the outlook for summer work decidedly bright.
 A $2,000,000 bond issue proposition for erecting new school buildings in this city and repairing old school buildings will be ratified by the peo- pie; likewise an auditorium bond issue.
 Many large buildings are now in course of construction, and when the city's building activities begin and ground is broken for the government $ $1,0O0,OO0 edifice, Birmingham will witness it's greatest building boom.
 Will the real estate market re- spond? Assuredly, yes. The prudent investor is now looking out for bar gains, knowing as he does that local values will be greatly enhanced when all the builders are busy.

MUNITIONS PLANTS

American people. are thinking about this phase of preparedness, as the re- cent vote of the Senate on the armor plate bill indicated. If they are wise they will not place themselves at the mercy, to any degree whatever, of am- bilious American Krupps, even for the sake of business efficiency. The Du Fonts and Schwabs have their place, no doubt. but, in order to guard against the evils of war besotted capitalism it is a place that the government should always be able to dominate.
 As the munitions industry grows in size in the United States and its fi- nancial power is more strongly felt, especially in Congress, it will become corresponding1y essential to make gov ernment in all of it's depar rtments tho more independent of war making in- fluences. No private munitions plant need be put out of business by estab- fishing government monopolies in the manufacture of war material, yet at least a potential government competi- tion will be required, in the future as in the century gone by. in order that the question in it's broadest aspect may be handled with supreme regard for adequate national defense and sound public policy

Finds East Optimistic

CT find trade conditions in the east constantly improving with each month, . said H. A. Sorsby, who returned from a business trip to New York yesterday. 'The merchants of the east are all optim- istic in the extreme and predict that even should the war be brought to a sudden end there would be no collapse of the eco- homie situation in the United States A feature of my trip east that I was pleased to note was the ease of the money mar ket The banks are even anxious to make loans now, whereas during the early days of the war it was difficult to get money at any price.
 "I find the conviction in. New York to be that there will be no sudden end in the European struggles but that it will be at least year before any of the bellig- erents are prepared to discuss peace terms. I was informed, too, that the results of the recent allied conference at Paris would not be long in making them selves felt and that the actions of Hol- land might be directly traced to this meeting"
