He will be amply repaid for his lahors in behalf of tie republican candidate by the prestige and influence in pub- lie affairs for which he yearns with all the intensity of his nature. Un- less all signs fail, he will be a well come guest at the White House, a much interviewed and meh photo graphed man.
 Harding and Wilson are two quite different types of men. Harding will seek advice and accept it-provided, of course, that he is elected Presi- dent. He will not hold himself aloof, as MT. Wilson has done, but will lend an attentive ear to what such worthies as the resoureeful Colonel Harvey and the republican leaders of the Sen ate have te say,
 If Harding is the next President of the United States, We may look | for wonderful bourgeoning of Col onel Harvey, who has been in sad state of eclipse during the Wilson regime.

 The cotton and corn crops are com ing forward rapidly, Showers are in order, and according to the weather probabilities, we will have a plenty of rain between now and the middle of July,
 What the corn yield will be is only guess work, of course, but a fifty million bushel production may be ex- pected. Alabama's bumper crop of one hundred million bushels will be delayed another year, but half of that output will give us a great hog and cattle yield, and enable this state to feed itself But just now the ques- ton most pressing is the labor supply

THE MARYS

From the Providence Journal,
 N CORRESPONDENT has kindly AA called attention to the fact that
 A s@ the sister of Lazarus. mentioned
 the other day on this page as Mary Mag
 dalene. was not that famous Mary. but
 Mary Of Bethany. The error was due to
 our adhering too closely to the proveneal legend concerning the arrival of Laz- arus. Martha and one of the Marys, pop- uiariy described as Mary Magdalene. in southern France.
 Exeep' to the close student. the Marys oe the Bible are confusing. We have Mary, the mother of Jesus; Mary, the
 mother Of James, Mary Of Magdaia or | Mary Magdalene who was healed of evil spirits and inhrmities. and Mary of
 Bethany. ''whom Jesus loved" Both Mary of Magdaia and Mary of Bethany
The Birmingham age-herald., 1920-06-18

have, without basis. been eonfounded wit the unnamed sinful woman who anointe the feet of Christ at Simon's house
 Similarly, confusion has existed as [ the identify of the sister of Lazarus. Tn Bible is clear in distinguishing betwee the two Marys, yet interpreters hay eiouded the distinction by surmises an deductions, The Proveneal legend has al ways had 1t that the Mary with Laz arus was Mary Magdalene and traditio easily accounts for her as his sister. Tn shrine of Mary Magdalens in the grott of La Sainta-Baume is still pilgrimag for the deyout It Is also one of the mos noted natural sights along the coas where the river Rhone meets the Medi terranean and with which we may be come more familiar as relations betwee Marseilies and Providence grow stronge with time

Is Col. George Harvey
 Trying to Even the Score? ?

GNOL, GEORGE HARVEY is cred NJ tied with having launched Woodrow Wilson on the political ca reer which made him President. There came a "break" between the two men, Mir, Wilson even went so far as to dsclaim the friendly offices of Col onel Harvey, and since this blow to his pride he has adopted the atti- tude of man who warmed a serpent in his bosom,
 Incidentally, the Wilson Harvey break was only one of numerous dsagfeements which have character ized the Wilson administration, J,seph Humility is about the only man left of the original Wilson family" who has not been cast into outer darkness, The explanation lies in the fact that Mir. Tumulty Is ah- solutely loyal to his chief and his mind runs along with or rather be- hind that of MT, Wilson with un- flagging zeal and faithfulness,
 Now Colonel Harvey is conducting himself like man who thirsts for revenge. Close students of the re- publican convention at Chicago iay that while Penrose may have spoken tte decisive word which nominated Harding, Harvey imposed his thoughts upon the convention to a greater extent than any other man there. He helped to cause the re- pudis ton of The Wilson League of ! ,ons, and he was an important figue in that last grilling confer enee which resulted in Harding being che sen to head the republican ticket, In fact, the conference took place in z onel Haryey's room,
 If Harding is elected President. i, Colonel Harvey may be the Colonel House of the Harding administration,

Coke Gas Is a
FFFFHN - - v . . ? ~
 Commodity of Value

ID Y-PRODuCT gas generated hy AQ coke ovens IS not awaste" gas,
 It is a valuable and servieeable product, 1t is usable by the makers and salable in the open market to other users of gas,
 The Tennessee Coal, Iron and Rail road Company not only needs and uses all but fractional amount of it's gas production, but it also uses gas from the emet-Solvay by-produet ovens and is reaching out for more in spite of the addition this spring of one hundred and fifty-four of it's own by y-product ovens
 It not only uses all this gas, but it uses fuel oil It is also large taker of power from the Alabama Power Company.
 The soss-s Sheffield Company is equipping it's mines, furnaces and quaries with electrical apparatus which will be driven by electrical power created by machinery driven by by-produet gas. It thus becomes electrically operated and electrically independent,
 The Alabama Hy-Produets Com pany Is selling it's gas to the Vulcan Rvet Works and other nearby plants for driving their machinery,
 The Gulf States Steel Company is installing electric generators to be driven by it's by-produet gas and so becomes electrically operated through out.
 The gas at the by-produet plants that issues from high stand-pipe at night and lieks the heavens with it's fiery tongue is not waste" but a safety valve, It liberates the pres sure in the gas eandults of the plant so as to prevent explosions and 1t mitigates the gaseous fumes that would otherwise render the atmos- phere roundabout intolerable,
 The gas that is referred to in terms of power-driying and community use is what Is technically known as a surplus" gas, and that is the gas remaining after 1t has been robbed of tar and oils, but it is not waste" gas and it has distinct value for heating and Illuminating purposes,
 1t is a commodity as much as the coke and tar produced by the ovens or the coal that produces them and, when others than the producers wish to use it, they must realize that it can be had only at it's money value.
 No correct basis of considering the use Of by-pfoduet gas can be arrived at without eliminating the word waste" and eoneeiying it as a com modity worth price.

Grand Jury Comments
 County's Jury System

lE9 VERY patriotic citizen will be A2 gratified at the report made by the Jefferson county grand jury yesterday which places the stamp of approval upon the honesty and fair ness of the county's jury lists.
 When the original charges were made several weeks ago that there had been fraud on the part of the jury commissioners, the judges and the sheriff and his deputies, few citi- zens were inclined to take such charges seriously because they were a reflection upon the entire court sys- tenn of the county,
 The judges before whom the charges were made, however, at once ordered an investigation. This investigation in posed an unusual hardship upon the grand jurymen, because weeks were
 
 consumed in hearing witnesses and | in going over thousands of names on the jury list. The attorney general of the state was brought here to con 1 duet an unbiased investigation. And as result of 1t all the grand jury yesterday summarized it's findings in these words;
 We therefore conclude that there has been no fraud or nal teasance in office, or misconduct Of the jury commissioners or their clerk, in the way and manner of procuring the names to constitute the jury roll, but we find that they have performed their duties in this regard with great care and caution
 and in q most satisfactory and con
 seientous manner
 The grand jury likewise exonerates the judges and other county officials from the slightest improper conduct in their handling of the jury lists.
 After the hard work they have done, it is unfortunate that the jury commission, which is made up of three of Birmingham's best kno VII and most trusted citizens, holld have been put to the expense and time of defending themselves from charges which all their friends knew from the start were unfounded, but they can at least have the satisfaction of knowing that their work has been examined, praised and commended by a grand jury made up of painstaking citizens from practically every walk of life i'll the county.
 Both the jury commissioners and the grand jurymen are entitled to the thanks of the entire county for the manner In which they have per formed their respective duties in the
 interest of the public.
