HUNTSVILLE WANTS
CENSUS RECOUNT

HUNTSVILLE, Ala, May /. (Spl)-
The census bureaus preliminary pop
ulation for Huntsville giving this city
only S,01S people, an increase of only
4O7 people in 10 years, was received
with a great deal OF disappointment

walls in New Orleans.

saturday Afternoon, May l.
With the only speculative market in
New Orleans there was little interest
during the short session, as the South
ern center rarely gets far from shore
white going it alone. Weather con-
ditions during the past "a hours were
better in the belt, except that Texas
continues without precipitation and
chances this morning were not very
good for any over the week end. More
complaints as to replanting being nee
essary and scarcity Of good seed seemed
to induce some support, but prices va
rled but little. Finals were quiet and
from 10 points off to up, which calls
for Liverpool on Monday to be to 6
points to the bad.
In the spot markets sales were just
a bit larger than they have been.

Altoona, Pain this town I see sew
eral things that are cheering in this
time of reaction. ~
I got a room in the Leroy hotel and
I 60 to supper and I notice that the
mattresses are wearing union buttons.
They more than yea them. They
flaunt them. I inquire. I learn that
the chairman Of the board Of directors
of this hotel is a machinist and an
officer of the machinists' union and
that among his fellow directors are
two other union machinists and three
union carmen and a union boiler max
er and "a union sheet metal worker,
who together control the board and
run a perfectly good hotel.
And I see a new cooperative store
in Altoona nova workers cO-Opera-
tive. I pick up a paper and read an
article about~it. The paper is a new
labor weekly-the Labor News. I see
people-at some distance from New
York-buying the New York Call. I
see also James H. Maurer, president
of the Pennsylvania State Federation
of Labor. He is running for the legts-
lature on the Socialist ticket and pay
ing a fraternal visit here to the state
cor vention of the Farmer-Labor party.
In the Labor News I notice that be-
sides a Socialist party and a Farmer
Labor party we have here a thing
called the Blair County Workers"No
partisan league. The editor of the
Labor News is 81. o. Kelley. He is
also secretary of the LeRoy-the SUI
per-unionized hotel. I learn from Mr.
Kelley that the Workers Nonpartisan
league here is ~nonpartisan not because
it impartially chooses between the
two old parties but because it impair
TALLY opposes them both.
Last fall, IN it's W. ticket, 1t elect
ed a machinist to be city treasurer, a
railroad clerk to be register and re-
corder, and a trainman and two ma
chinists to be county commissioners.

who is now a boilermaker and who
used to be a miner. He says:
IN the old days you and I wouldn't
be talking on this corner. In those
days If I wanted to 60 to a miners
meeting I started off from home in the
opposite direction and went around a
hill and over the mountain and
through the woods and met with the
other fellows under a tree. Next day
the boss would fire me, and the boss
