 Too much stress cannot be laid on the fact that every young man or woman , who enters the campaign has equal chances to win. This was emphasized in the conversation that occurred yester- day at campaign headquarters.
 A young lady who was candidate in former Birmingham campaign brought friend to this department in order to acquire full understanding of every thing that would enable her to start The reason why I brought her up," ex- plained this former candidate lis that l happen to know what diligent hustle will do. A few years ago won a beau- tiful car, and now that I look back I realize what fun it was! I know that only the candidate herself can decide whether she will be winner
 T remember I felt at one time I sim ply couldn't win. But I took hold of myself, argued it out with my subcon- sctous self, and just bucked up. Now l am riding around in my own car

NEW ORLEANS AND
 MOBILE AGAIN RIVALS

Washington, June 5.-(Special) )-Edward N. Hurley, chairman of the shipping board, confirmed to Alabamians in Con- gress today his statement of last night that New Orleans or Mobile would be connected by units of the merchants ma rine with Valparaiso and other cities on the western coast Of South America.
 The chairman made it plain in the first place, that it had not been determined whether Mobile or New Orleans would be made the gulf terminus, and in the second place, that both cities, one by connecting feeders, would share in the benefits.
 It is understood that Mobile on account of Birmingham coal and iron has an excellent chance to win, despite New Or leans greater advantage in other respects as a port. The Mississippi, draining the grain belt, and the Warrior the iron and coal region, are again rivals in a commercial struggle and the respective advantages are so nearly on par that the authorities are in doubt as how to act to the best interest of the govern ment The establishment of this service from Mobile would give Birmingham the connection with South America, on reg ular schedules, it has long considered necessary and fought for.

Washington, June 5.-tSpeclal.)-There Is report current that the President will take action towards the abandonment of wartime prohibition immediately after his return should Congress not previously act on his recommendation.
 It is understood that he will be actuated Ly belief that wartime prohibition is not popular with the great mass of American people
 Representative Gallavan of Massachu- setts, who has introduced bill which would put into effect the Presidents rec onmendation, declares that II out of every 12 soldiers returning from France are against prohibition. He states that statistics bearing out this statement will be published
 Labor representatives in Washington and neighboring states will demonstrate in Washington June IA. just as they dem- onstrated in Baltimore this week. In the Baltimore parade were 25,000 persons. many of them women. Other thousands lined the streets.
 It is stated that the Washington demon stration will be featured by a parade of 5o0O0 to be formed in front of the capitol and marched down Pennsylvania avenue. Every chapter of every organization in Washington has already promised to be represented.

ORG AIMED CAMPAIGN ON NLEACUE OF NATIONS

Washington, June 5.-(Special.) )-There is
 an organized campaign against the pro-
 posed League of Nations. It is well financed. Whether it is oficered and
 financed by the republican party, is not
 certain. But there is no question but
 that the organization exists and is at
 work
 The fact became known when the post
 office department learned that unprece-
 tented quantities of mail were congesting
 the local postoffice. It developed that A.
 GOO, GOO speeches of Senator Read were en
 route south.
 The special speech was that delivered against the League of Nations in which the contention was made that the colored
 races would predominate the league if it be formed with the countries the Presi- dent outlined-the negro race, the Jap anese, Chinese, the Moroccans. the Ma lays, the innumerable others. You lily whites of the south!' shouted Read in delivering that speech, what sf all you do about it?"
 It is said that Senator Overman of North Carolina and Senator Williams of Mississippi squirmed uneasily in their seats but made no comment. This might
 have given the tip.
 At any rate, the speeches are going south-4,O 900 of them. There is no ques-
 tion but that the opposition to the league is well organized and well financed

WILSON SURE TO BE

Washington, June 5.-(Special. )-Repre- sentative Steagall of the Third Alabama believes that President Wilson, possibly against his wishes, will be nominated for third term. will make the race and be elected.
 Wilson can win.' said MT. Steagall yesterday. He has everybody except a few biased republicans, behind him. In the first place, he has the solid south. In the second place, he has organized labor as no other man has ever had it. In the third place he has the women, and the women will vote for the next President.
 He has always had all races of people except the Germans and the Italians, the latter having been alienated through the Plume affair. He has always had the support of Frenchmen and Englishmen Canadians, Austrans. Greeks and Rus sians in the United States.
 And now he has won over the Ger mans, by advocating beer, and the Ital- ians by advocating light wines. And furthermore, by advocating beer and wines he has appealed to the discontented ma sses of the United States, liberals of New York. New Jersey, Delaware. Rhode Island, Connecticut, Maryland, Indiana Illinois and Ohio.

Meeting of farmers that pretty we'll

held at the court house last Saturday
as part of the great movement whose
purpose is to cut down the acreage to
De planted to cotton the coming season.
The meeting was called to order bv
Mayor c. W. Crawford WHO introduced
j. l. Highshaw of Memphis, the prin-
cipal speaker of the occasion. The
speaker dwelt at length on the present
world wide situation and the cotton
market present and prospective, and
urged the importance of cutting the
crop next year to ten million bales, in
order that the cotton growers may get
price that will pay them to grow the
staple, and to guarantee market that
farmers can control instead of the pre-
sent situation when the great CONNER
clal centers and the spinners control the
markets for cotton. The farmer is the
only person in the world who lets some
one else fix the price of his products. He
carries his cotton to the buyer and asks
what the buyer will give for it, but
when be buys his shoes, his clothing.
bis groceries his medicines, he finds
the prices Of them all are nxrd by the
manufacturer and the seller.
Again. when the manufacturers Of
cotton goods or other goods find the
markets glutted so that prices begin
to fiuctuate in response to the larger
supply they at once cut down the out
put by shortening the hours of running
their mills or shut down altogether for
time until the demand catches up
with the supply. In urging cotton far
mers to cut the acreage in cotton this
Season. this very thing is being prac-
ticed, cut the supply of cotton down
until the demand reachea the point
that 1t equal the supply and a just price
can be demanded for it,

Hold the Cotton You Now Have on Hand

Every we'll posted cotton man knows
that cotton costs more to produce than
the pr sent market quotation. Some
authorities state that the 1918 cotton
crop would be cheap at 35c, However
this may be. the holders OF spot cotton
should hold their cotton until the de-
mand will enable them to get back at
least the greater part of the production
cost. England has just lifted the EN-
barge on cotton. France and Italy are
expected 10 do so. The ocean freight
rates have just been reduced and the
export demand will develop immediate
