they are aroused by leader like Villa, whose picturesque personality had far more influence over class of MeXl- cans than strictly patriotic sentiments would ever have.
 There is every reason to believe that Villa is dead. Something definite would most certainly have been heard from him if he were still alive. With Villa removed and no other bandit chieftaln who seems capable of filling his shoes, the Mexican situation should remain fairly quiescent, pending the outcome of negotiations between the American government and General Carranza. Re- gardless of the criticisms aimed at President Wilson's policy in dealing with Mexico, it has been perhaps the best that could be devised under the circumstances, although it seems like ly that Uncle Sam will have to do the job of cleaning up" sooner or later.

BROADCAsTING A SANDER

l From the Mobile Register.
 The liquor men make a grave mis- take when they circulate false news about cities that are under prohibition. for they might know that those cities are not going to stand for such misrepre- sentation. Local option papers, the Bir- mingham Age-Herald and the Mobile Register, have recently had occasion to point out the inaccuracy of evil reports about Birmingham and Mobile In our
 own case the misrepresentation came
 from State Senator Alfred M Cohen of Cincinnati, who gave the Enquirer an in terview in which he told how prohibition
 had ruined Mobile" This interview has now been sent broadcast by the liuuor dealers association of Cincinnati, and over it placed the following headline in big type: Mobile Is in Awful Shape" This city does not relish such adver. Using. It resents the publication throughout the land that it's 'pubic
 finances are in bad shape" Mayor Lyons said, when his attention was first called to the Cohen interview He's talking through his hat. Why, we are even anticipating our bonds and retiring them'
 Among other things derogatory to Mo.
 bile in the Cohen interview was the
 statement that opposite the Battle
 House on the leading street, a half dozen stores are vacant. They contained res taurants where liquor was sold, and sa-
 loons." This, of course, is not and never was true. The man who ran the restau- rant and saloon on Royal street that was
 empty failed before prohibition came and
 went out of business. There was only
 one empty store, and it is now being remodeled for restaurant, soon to open. In the opinion of not few thoughtful
 persons a status of regulated saloons is
 better for Mobile than the reign of blind
 tigers and attendant lawlessness; but all of us protest against the effort of saloon
 men to help their cause by misrepresent- ing the effect here of prohibition There is recklessness in this pulling down the city in order to make their cause appear the better.

Demand for Packing Houses

As the raising of hogs and cattle | is an important factor in the crop diversification movement in Alabama there comes a demand for modern
 packing houses in sections of the state where the corn yield is large and the
 animal industry flourishes.
 All food crops pay, for when the farmers of the south no longer have
 to buy grain produced in the west or north, they have made great headway
 toward independence. But corn pays best when it is used to fatten hogs
 and cattle. It is then that the farmer
 makes his corn worth double or more
 the price it would bring in the grain
 market. And to get the most eco- homie results from his hogs he must
 be near enough to a packing house to sell his porkers at the top of the market.
 The most valuable industry in Cov- ington county is the large, modern packing house just completed at An dalusia. This plant was built at a cost of $10O,00O and the money was subscribed by the business men of An dalusia and the progressive farmers whereabouts. In addition to the ex- penditure for construction $25, 1000 was subscribed for working capital-a total investment of $125,OOO. This speaks we'll for the pluck and public spirit of the people of Covington county, and Andalusia's example should be fol- lowed, and doubtless will be, by other communities where hogs and cattle are raised on a large scale.
 The packing house began operations this weeg and the event was hailed as a signal achievement. The busi- ness will be light during the summer, but next fall the plant will go on full time. That it will be good dividend payer goes without saying.
 Plans are on foot in several coun- ties to build and operate packing houses. There is room for a dozen or more such industries in Alabama at the present time. The packing house certainly solves the problem of and markets so far as corn and live stock are concerned.

New Tennis Courts open

"The opening of six new tennis courts Thursday afternoon by the Gen. tra1 r. M C. A. at Tenth avenue and Twenty fourth street was hailed with great delight by all enthusiasts of the game" remarked J. A. Randy.
 Some 20 or 30 fellows were on hand to take part in the sport on the new grounds and everyone apparently spent a highly enjoyable afternoon. Twenty four players may participate in games in progress on the new courts and in downtown next door to the central as- sociation buildings. s.e. <. "The grounds were in surprisingly good condition for an opening event and only needed a little packing to become ideal in every respect Drain- age and location are highly satisfac- tory and there is a high enclosure to prevent loss of balls.
 Among those in attendance at the opening yesterday was MT. Howell, who is a great favorite among the players. It was under his supervision that the new courts have been planned and con- structed Howell has certainly made a good job of it. For the past few weeks he has been much in the open and is so we'll tanned from exposure to the sun that his best friends would hardly know him. at first glance.
 There will indeed be great sport among members of the " this sum- mer who play tennis"

THE BASS SEASON
he Youngstown Telegranc

From the youngstown Telegram.
 Lovers of good fishing have taken down their tackle, polished up their reels test ed their lines, laid in supply of bait and are whipping the creeks and lakes for the game fish that abound therein. Probably the thoughts of the fisherman here in northeastern Ohio turn almost entirely to the bass The salmon and the pugnacious trout are not to be found and the pickerel and mighty muskel- lunge are not often numbered among our game fish. The bass abounds in Ohio waters wherever given an opportunity to propagate and thanks to the work of the state fish commission and local fishing organizations he is beginning to reappea: in good numbers in streams that were about fished out Many ardent bass fish, ermen believe that their favorite is the equal of the trout as a fighter. He gives all the thrills, they say, of another fish several times his size and weight and adds the best to fishing that real fisher men love. Certainly the bass is an oppo- net of the first order. He may not be the king of fishes, but he is the king so far as Ohio waters are concerned and he makes the man who lands him realize that he has had a fight on his hands.

RooseYeIt a Cnnservatire

In my opinion Theodore Roosevelt is decidedly the strongest man who could be nominated by the republicans" said Col Jesse F. Stallings, for a number of years member of Congress from the Sec ond district. T was more or less inti- mately associated with Roosevelt about zo years or more ago, when he was con- nected with the civil service board at Washington, and I know his real ability and power He has a peculiar power with the people of the country and whatever ones political views may be-, it must be admitted that the colonel is one of the great men this country has produced in the last quarter of a cen- tury.
 Due to the peculiar forcefulness with which he speaks and expresses himself, Roosevelt has rather acquired the repu- tation in many quarters of being radi- cal. But as a matter of fact he is strictly conservative in all his actions. When he talks, 1t seems that he is talking with his entire body, and his whole energy is put into his every expression when he becomes aroused. But he is by no means radical in his actions. When we recall what he did while President, it must be admitted that he is a conservative in every way.'
