ABOLISH PRECINCT
Historic Beat in Madison County
 Is Abolished

Huntsville. May 12.-(Special.)- Triana precinct No. 6, established as voting precinct in Madison county curing the days of reconstruction following the Civil war, has been abolished as voting place by the Madison county board of revenue. acting on petition of the voters who declare that there are not enough qualified voters to hold the cleo tons. The number has dwindled to eighteen during the years following the dlsfranchisement of the negro voters by the Alabama constitution.
 The announcement of the passing of Triana as political district is of more than usual interest In years gone by it had the largest negro vote of any precinct in Madison county with probably dozen or smaller number of white men to Fold them in line, and yet its vote has swung many an election in favor of the democratic ticket of Madison county. The negro vote was cast solid for the democrats almost in- variably and Triana politicians had powerful pull in county politics.
 The town of Triana was once a rival of Huntsville for the county seat, being located on the Tennessee river, and it is believed that if it had had an advantageous site for . city, would have got the courthouse and kept Huntsville from ever be- coming more than country village. Something was lacking, however. and the boomers of Triana, who had cut their property into city lots. turned them back into cotton and corn fields. It Is a rich farming district but the white population Is widely scattered. living on big plantations that have many negro tenants, and the conditions there come nearer be- ing like the typical Mississippi plan tation community than anywhere else known outside of Mississippi it. self

Mother, Queen O the May

Tomorrow is Mothers Day" and 1t brings to mind the beautiful lines that Kate Douglas Wiggin wrote when she said:
 Most of all, the other beautiful things in life come by twos and threes; by dozens and hundred. Plenty of roses, stars. sunsets. rainbows, brothers, sisters. aunts and cousins, but only ONE MOTHER In all the wide world"
 Tomorrow will be a good day to recall these lines.
 As matter of fact every day should be Mothers Day"-not just one poor little old Sunday in May.
 Maybe on some other planet, God made something finer and better and truer than mother. but certain we are that she is Ills masterpiece in this great, floating old world.
 Many of us live long, just taking our mothers for granted.
 We get so used to, them that they come to be just S casual as the clock on the mantel.
 The mother heart ticks away a lit tie tune not unlike the clock.
 Both say:
 I'm here! I'm here! I'm here!"
 The young man in the story might
  more eloquently, when he said:
 Tell my mother I need her. To come to me here. She's always on the job"
 The message came from prison walls.
 The man had been arrested and the friends who should have shared his crime and disgrace had deserted him, but he knew he could send for his mother and she would come.
 The mother heart is always on the job.
 Because mans in prison she does not pass him up. No indeed.
 Parodists have tried hard to gel funny over the old song, "A Boys Best Friend Is Mis- Mother" but there's too much honest truth in 1t for anybody to undermine it's appeal Anybody's best friend Is that per sons mother.
 There's a good old ringing toast that I dearly love.
 Maybe you know it: we have toasted our sweethearts Our friends and our wives; We have toasted each other,
 Wishing all merry lives: Don't frown when I tell you
 This toast beats all others: Drink one more sip, boys,
 A toast to Our Mothers"
