 While Frank Derby is my personal friend. and I would De glad f.,r him ts make something or his purchases. yet l am more in.creste. an the placing ot the bulls. c.'ws and heifers whicl he has throughou- the state than l am in any profiI ke might make.

Personally, l would be glad l.
 to have the sale here as Birming- ham event and as an educational showing of what can be done with pure breds. but above all this I de- sire to do my little part in an effort to keep the cattle game from being Ct moral;zed, for l firmly believe that now is the time of all time for tile knowing ones to get into it. for cat ftle is at low ebb, and high-class stuff can re had at bargain prices.

JUST HOY

From the San Francisco Chronicle.
 sammy Rzeszewslxi. years old, can take on A dozen adult chess players simultaneously and beat them aii' but he wants to grow up to be po- Iiceman. He's normal. He may be a prodigy at chess, but as boy he is sound.
 When sammy arrived in San Fran cisco those who went to meet him went perhaps shakily. fearful that the prodigy would talk nothing but the deepest chess. But they found just an eyeryday boy He wanted to talk bicycles and horses and cameras, and Its first interest was how soon he could get out to the park for a ride. Chess? Yes, he likes that, but he likes play as well.
 He doesn't want to be kissed. There is an attempt to find reason in religious training. It isn't necessary. No regular boy of his age wants to be kissed. The fact only goes to prove his complete Hoiihahes' Ho just boy. What if he does show d sign or two or being spoiled? That, too, comes easily to boys of his age, and that he is not more so. consider ing the attention constantly centered upon him, may well be taken as proof of his soundness.
 At chess Sammy is wizard for his age. But, like other infant prodigies. he Is quite likely to grow cut of it. That his parents are not unmindful of that possibility appears from their plans to train him to medicine or engineering. And if that happens 1t will be a mighty good thing for sammy Rzesxewski as a man that in his youth he was just boy and wanted to grow up to be a policeman.

Fabricating in Transit
 Will Help Birmingham
prcgressiv

N LONG with the series of other A freight rate adjustments that have been made in the past two years placing Birmingham in the po- sition to which it is entitled, it now appears that fabricating of steel in transit is to come next. That will 'be directly and immediately bene ficial
 The Southern and Louisville and Nashville railroads have sponsored fabrication in transit for Birming- ham and will indorse it at hearing before the southern freight rate committee.
 Fabricating in transit means that steel fabricators in Birmingham will be able to purchase steel at Youngs- town, Chicago and Pittsburg, shape it here into bridge and office build ing forms and then forward it to its destination at the through rate from the originating point. Otherwise the steel would pay the two local races, one to Birmingham and the other to the point of con- sumption of the fabricated stuff, which would be much more than the through rate.

| "a PEAKING about newsprint paper IN made from Southern Spruce
 Pine, many people have asked the writer if the experiment and the printing of The Age Herald upon this paper last Monday was merely for a news story or for practical pur- poses?
 Decidedly the latter.
 This writer has spent some SS,O0O in the practical experiment to prove conclusively whether this pine would make paper and whether or not it grows in sufficient quantities in this territory to warrant the erection of mill of 50 tons daily capacity, cost ing s1,5OO,O0O or more.
 The experiments have proven con- clusively that such mill will not only be a practical but a paying proposition. It should earn more in proportion to the investment than any mill in the east.
 Several newsprint mills in the country are now experimenting with some of the wood which was left over at Niagara Falls-making the same into newsprint paper. In the meantime careful estimate of the amount of available wood in the Warrior river territory is being made by competent engineers, and bids have been called for on the part of residents in this section for furnish ing the same cut in cord wood size and delivered on the banks of the river and the back water creeks nayigable for barges.
 While this is being done MT. Rob- ert Glade. the practical paper manu- idCtuief Who HaS Deen CoHuuCtlHB the experiments, is making figures and plans for the construction of mill at the earliest practicable mo- ment.
 # # #
 One business friend and associate of the writer has agreed to finance $1,000,000 of the investment provided the writer will finance s5O0,00O.
 It is the purpose of the writer and intimate associates to take $200, 900 worth of the stock while $500 900 of the stock will probably be offered to readers of The Age Herald.
 This will probably be 8 per cent preferred stock of the par value of $100 per share, but to be sold at $50 a share, making the same pay 10 per cent on the actual cash investment.
 In addition, there will be an issue of a certain number of shares of common stock of no par value. One half a share of this common stock will be given as a bonus with every

Northern Negro Politician
 Is Becoming a Nuisance

WV THAT negroes of Boston, ito Chi WV cago, Toledo and St. Louis have to do with the confirmation of a white man nominated for United States district attorney for western North Carolina does not suggest itself to an outsider, yet negro leaders from these cities joined North Carolina negroes in protest ing againse the confirmation of Frank A. Linney, as republican state chairman of North Carolina.
 MT. Linney is reported to have promised the people of North Car olina that if republicans carried that state there would remain a white mans government and that he favored letting the negro stay out of politics. He merely vouched for the continued domination of the white people of North Carolina in their own affairs. He did not de- clare for disfranchisement of the negro.
 But whether the North Carolina negroes had or had not grievance against MT. Linney, there does not appear to have been any reason for northern negroes, not acquainted with local conditions, to join in the protest.
 The republican administration is getting it's full of the negro politi- clan. He has come to Washington with great expectations and he has not failed to raise lusty voice. He has become an embarrassment and is developing into a nuisance.
 The south is not worrying over this. The common sense of the ma tion is more and more against in terference with local affairs. The north is worrying, because negro emigration in that direction during the war shifted the problem which the south had already solved.

Gompers Is Reelected
 by Federation of Labor

~ CONSERVATISM won notable NJ victory yesterday at Denver, where Samuel Gompers was over whelmingly reelected president of the American Federation of Labor.
 Mir. Gompers was opposed by John L. Lewis, president of the United Mine Workers, who repre- sents the radical element of or ganized labor. A bitter fight has been carried on by the radicals to overthrow Gompers and substitute for his safe, constructive policies the socialistic doctrines of Europe.
 The election shows that in stand ing by it's grand old man" the federation appreciates the value of his leadership and proposes to up- hold American ideals. Organized labor owes a great deal to Gompers. More than any other man he has built up it's power and it's influence because in fighting for the rights of the working man he has never preached violence and destruction. His attitude has been that of a pa- triotic American citizen, with the ability to see that nothing is to be gained by bolshevism and anarchy.
 The federation goes on record as opposed to the Russian soviet gov ernment and it will not be affiliated with the European labor movement. which is bolshevistic and contrary to the lest interests of labor every

 '.The Daily Mail paper mills re- ceived a very remarkable proot ' of public confidence last year when a Notation of $500, DOC
 (S4,000.00o) worth of second de-
 bentures was offered for SUD 5 scription. There was such ag 9 enormous rush of applications J that the banks were over ri whelmed. Up to D. m. on the
 opening day, applications for
 over sl5,Oo0,O00 had been receiv-

 number of letters totalled more

 first 100 minutes, $a2,350,S50 in
 six hours and thirty minutes,
 and $12,500,o00 by post received

 ther large amount offered by ap-
 plicants at the counters of the
 banks after the list was closed
 This was declined without any
 figures being recorded" It is needless to say that evef investor in these mills of The DatI Mail in Newfoundland has bex eminently satisfied. The profM from the same have been enormous There are some paper mills ih the south making craft paper. Otli CTS are making paper or pasteboard as the public knows it, for boxes, bu newsprint mills like that in Rich mond, Va, and one located in Mariet ta. Ga, several years ago, mad newsprint from wood pulp and sul phite pulp shipped from northern mills.
 In the case ot the proposed War rior river mill everything at the out set, except Sulphite pulp, will b made here, and within a short tim after the ground wood pulp and tn paper making machinery is installe a sulphite pulp outfit will be ad ded. It may be that this sulphite mil will be included in the original con struction.
 As soon as the engineers plans ar made, bids on machinery secured an surveys are completed on the land showing the quantities of wood avail able the public will be fully advise and those who desire to participat will be offered opportunity undel the same plans inaueurated by North cliffe when he built the Newfound land mills.
