Two brothers, twins. look almost exactly alike. So much so that even their doting mother has diff ficulty in separating them. One i'm poses things on the other with the re- l suit that innumerable complications en- sue creating whirlwind of incessant and convulsive laughter.

Montgomery Bureau The Ase- Herald
 22l.2 First National Bank Building


 Montgomery, February 20.-(Special)- Mrs. Pattie Ruffner Jacobs of Birmingh- ham, member of the women-s section or the national democratic executive com mittee, was condemned and the demo- cratic party was called upon to sever all relations with her as result of her al legged condemnation of southern men at the meeting of the Equal Suffrage Asso- ciation by thirty members of the South- ern Association for the Rejection of the Susan E. Anthony Amendment in con vention here Friday afternoon.
 In addition to the resolution of con- demnation, the convention adopted a resolution declaring that if something unforeseen brings about the ratification of the amendment, all ant-suffragists will be called upon to equip themselves to use the ballot and vote their convictions.
 The resolution adopted before Mrs. Jacobs had issued her statement in Sir mingham, which is published elsewhere Tn today's Age-Herald, is as follows:
 ''Whereas, Mrs. Pattie Ruffner Jacobs, president of the Alabama Suffrage Asso- citation, and through some unfortunate turn in politics, the woman member Of the national democratic executive com nittee from Alabama under present po- litical conditions, took occasion, at the recent convention of the supporters of the Susan B. Anthony amendment in Chicago, represented in the National Suf- frgc Association to publicly insult Ala bama and southern men in gathering of unfrien1ly critics of the south, it's in stitutions and it's people, by declaring, according to published reports which have not been denied, that men of the south were characterized by ignorance and insncerty and bound up in tradi- ton and supers tition; by more specific att tacks on Senator Underwood and other outstanding Alabamians and southerners; by comparing southern men unfavorably with northern men, to whom, she said suffrage was due; by singing song with the refrain, Southern Men, You Make Us Mighty Weary and which repeatedly cassed southern men as fossils;
 Be it resolved by the Alabama diN vision of the Southern Woman's League for the Rejection of the Susan B. An thony Amendment; representing ma ioritv of the women of Alabama, That we deplore the spectacle presented of a southern woman, clothed with the brief and temporary authority of a party ofti- cial of the democratic party, wantonly insulting the men of the south in the midst of the applause of heterogeneous assembly of the enemies and critics ol the south we resent the uncalled for in- suit, not only as directed at the men of the south, but at it's civilization and in- stitutions, which these men and theil fathers built up and defended, and from no more irsidious menace did southern men defend their women, children and home than from the tyrannical policies favored by Susan B. Anthony and Thao Stevens we hold the southern men tc be equal in character, in ability and lr all that makes true men, to any in the

Officer Abbott Commits Suicide

Officer Abbott Commits Suicide
George w. Abbott, turnkey at the
city prison, committed suicide at the
prison Friday afternoon by shooting
himself through the head with a re-
volver. He was in a semi-conscious
condition when discovered by his
mother, Mrs. Henderson,, and was
rushed to the city hospital where he
died at one o'clock Monday morning.
Abbott had been a member of the
police force for the past 13 years,
during most of the time serving as
patrolman, and was always consider
ed a faithful and efficient officer.
Dependency over domestic trouble is
supposed to be the cause of his rash
act. He is survived by his wife, from
whom he was separated, and by
son, Curtis w., from whose home,
204 West Main street, the funeral
was conducted Wednesday morning
by Rev. C. G. Hazlet. The remains
were inferred in Eden cemetery near
st. Louisville.

SOME TRITE TRUTHS

Arthur Brisbane, always a force
ful and prolific writer, recently gave
utterance to the following trite truths:
Following the coal strike, foolish
ness develops. Individuals in and
out of Government are Dragging, tell
ing how they "stood union labor on
it's head and made it come to time"
Perhaps they did all they say, but
just now less Dragging and more tact
would be desirable.
Telling union labor where it gets
off" is popular at the moment. Four
candidates for the Presidency are
running on the platform: Watch
what / do to union labor"
One or two of these gentlemen may
discover during 1920 that union labor
also votes!
This is not a time for those that
represent Government or capital to
brag about defeating labor. And it
is not a time for union or other work.
men to be foolish, break their con-
tracts, or show indifference to the
public welfare.
Workingmen, particularly leaders
of union labor, must realize that con-
ditions are changed. Wages are high
and will stay high. Money is plenti-
full. Plenty of work at high wages
naturally weakens labor organiza-
tions. The man who can always find
work at high pay does not need or
ganizers to help him.
A great deal of work is to be done;
there is great deal of money to pay
for it. 1t should be possible to run
the industries of the country without
fights that were inevitable in days
when two non-union men were look
ing for the union mans job.
