7r7> EN I. RAPPORT, who made the ID Pickens County Herald one of the best weekly papers in the state and turned it into financial success, is showing equal ability in his man. agement of the Meridian Dispatch.
 When MT. Rapport took over this property it was badly disorganized. Meridian offered, however, an excel lent field for the development of a good newspaper and MT. Rapport was quick to seize the opportunity.
 The Dispatch has been revitalized and improved. MT. Rapport is now issuing paper of which he and his associates may we'll feel proud and it is evident that the business men of Meridian are giving it their sup port. E. E, Kersh, who was for many years identified with the Alabama press and is capable newspaper man, is managing editor of the Dis patch.

 The September report of the depart ment of agriculture assures us that tins aggregated farm output of the country for this year will exceed any previous year record. The corn crop will be, it is said. in excess of 5000, 000.0 bush els, which means a billion bushels of corn for export. And the corn we keep at home will be transmitted into pigs and poultry. beef and breakfast foods and, may be, some of it into something else, if the Volsteaders don't look sharp
 The yield of potatoes is estimated at 100000 bushels, which should bring this recent luxury within tn rach of the common average. as well as of the hun gry souls across the seas.
 Wheat, oats, apples. peaches, grapes ceres and pomona have poured earth ward in shining fragrant floods; all of which brings us to credit once more our one time belief in beneficent proyi- dence; and the fact should bring to our shores the Benjamins of the nations to take home to the lean lands the good things of this home of plenty, positive plethora, and perniciouS prohibition.

Law and Order
 Are Supreme
& &%* #

N CCORDING to news adyices, Ay there was some comment at the state capitol when the Alabama supreme court received notice on Monday that the appeal of the Re- public Iron and Steel company from the tonnage tax decision of the state courts would be heard by the United States supreme court in December.
 Comment appeared to be based on the fact that the state is now ex- pending $4,000 per day for he main- tenance of law and order in the coal fields, it being especially represented that in case the troops are detained here for 76 days, the state will have spent more than it received out of the tonnage tax in the last fiscal year.
 In the first place, the appeal in the tonnage tax case was taken sev- eral months ago, long before the Z strike began and long before there was any disorder in the mine field. But that is neither here nor there. Alabama is not putting anything in the balance with law and order.
 Coal and iron producers will not be- grudge any money that may be spent to stop night-riding and gin-burning. There has been no hue and cry in Alabama over the large amounts voted by the legislature that enable the governor to enforce the prohib- ton laws. No voice is raised when rewards are offered for the arrest of criminals anywhere in the state; none against special terms of courts to sit in cases of emergency and none against any money that is spent to make Alabama safe for everyone.
 The cost of the strike and the ap peal of the Republic company in the tonnage tax case have no competitor. The courts are sacred to every effort of every person who wishes to test his civil rights there.

"The strange part about it was that he seemed to an- rounce that he was going to seek di vlne direction without having con suited the bosses If Harding is se- rious in this and does contemplate being more given to prayer to God to make him capable of playing his part he may incur the wrath Of his bosses They perhaps feel that trey need no competition in directing the affairs of the President elect.

President-elect to
 Visit the South

77 BARREN G. HARDING will
 WV start on a southern tour to- morrow or Saturday, with the Pan- anna zone as his objective point.
 He will journey direct from his home to Brownsville, Tex, and after spending twelve days there will go to Panama by Way of New Orleans. New Orleans will be on his return route and from that city he will travel homeward via Bedford, Va.
 As the President -elect will probably pass through Birmingham the city commission should invite him to stop over here. Our civic bodies would be quick to join in the invitation and a hospitable reception would be as sured.
 Republican Presidents in visiting the south have always been treated not only with the respect due their ex- alted position, but with spontaneous acclaim and distinct jubilation. The first republican President to visit the south was Rutherford B. Hayes when he spent a week in Richmond several months after his inauguration. The Virginia Capital was aglow with enthusiasm over his presence and no demonstration could have been more whole-hearted. Birmingham had the honor jof en- tertaining President HarrisonA Presi-

Impressive City

What has most impressed me in Bir- mingham," said c. E. Meads of New York, lis it's beautiful residence streets. l think Highland avenue is one of the most attractive thorough fares I have ever seen, both from a standpoint of natural beauty and civic improvements. it's graceful curves make the avenue unique among those of any city. It seems most remarkable to me the way Birmingham people have used the natural beauties offered all about the city, as for instance the at tractive way in which homes in Noun tain Terrace Nand Milner Heights have been placed among the rocks. This quality of using the landscape as nature has presented it is one of the peculiar beauties of the town.'

Champ Clark Defeated
 for Congress in Missouri

6N HE defeat of Champ Clark, H former speaker of the House of Representatives is one of the dis asters which overlook the democratic party when it was buried under a re- publican landslide Tuesday.
 MT. Clalk's republican opponent for the congressional nomination in the Ninth Missouri district piled up a comfortable majority. The whole country, except the solid south" and a few other states, seemed deter mined to administer a defeat to the democratic party it would never for get, and MT. Clark, whose record of distinguished public service entitled him to retain his seat as long as he lived, was decisively beaten by q candidate who is practically unknown. If the dispatches spell his name cor rectly, it is T. W. Rukreide.
 Champ Clark came very near being President of the United States. He has long been presidential possi- bility and but for the efforts of MT. Bryan in the memorable Baltimore convention, which nominated Wood row Wilson, it is believed that the Missourian would have been nomi- mated and elected.
 Perhaps no man in public life has more personal friends than Mir. Clark. He is one of the few towering fig ures in the House of Representatives and is a veteran in parliamentary

The White Plague

T was greatly interested in the ex- tracts given by pr. Frank Willis Barnett in Sundays Age Herald on the editorial page under the head of "A Consumptive's Diary" said Dr. George Eaves "as it presented in a powerful and graphic way the terrors of the white plague. L1ewellyn Powys evil dently has genius. for he gives such an impression from the few things which he has written. 1t needs the pen of realist to put into words tho ravages of consumption.

E Y Fine Cattle Raised in Sumter County

N1 ATTLE buyers from Tennessee O> recently went to the stock farms of Sumter county and pur- chased 10 cars of high-grade steers of the Shorthorn, Hereford and Angus breeds. The top market price was paid.
 Not many years ago cotton situ- ation such as that of this fall would have practically ruined Sumter county for the time being. Cotton was almost the only dependence and when the cotton market was ad- verse, all other conditions were the same. Happily that condition is of the past and will never return.
 The same may be said of the black belt counties and of. the wire grass. Cotton will always remain the chief cash money crop of the south, be- cause there will always be money in it when properly handled for the market, but never again will all the farmers energies and hopes concen- trate there.
