Birmingham's invitation to the outside world has come from the press and is ready for distribution. It is folder-p pamphlet of which 10.- 900 copies are being printed, showing in fine illustrations the principal phases of. life and places in Birming ham.
 O. Gordon Erickson, director of municipal music, was entrusted with the compilation of the pamphlet by the city commission and with each department he held long conversa- tions about the best things to bring out. President D. E.. McLendon, who suggested the pamphlet, has been cooperating with MT. Erickson in the work for months.
 Two main ideas were kept in mind regarding the work, bringing more people to Birmingham through the visible contradiction of erroneous impressions about southern cities, and to bring to the attention of or ganizations that hold national con- Ventions the presence of a great au- ditorium in Birmingham.
 The pamphlet introduces a new municipal department also, the Bir- mingham convention and tourists bu- reau, with offices in the city hall Mir. Erickson is in charge of the new bureau and is tacitly Understood to be the man who will have charge of the auditorium when it is completed.

HoUsTONs HOLD REUNION

A reunion of unusual interest will be that of the Houston family, which is to be held Sunday at Houston Springs. The family is one of the largest among the pioneer residents tof this section. and several hundred are expected to attend the gathering, which will be held all day.
 The pioneer of the family in this section was John Houston, who re- smoved to Lowndes county from Charleston when a boy. He came to Jefferson county in 1859. His wife was a grand niece of Patrick Cal houn, father of John c. Calhoun, and the family is prominently connected here, in south Alabama and South Carolina.
 The first family reunion was held last year, when there were more than 100 in attendance. It is thought there will be more than 300 on hand this year, as relatives from other sections are expected. The reunion will be an annual event in the flu lure.

THE HARRISON AFFAIR

Many months ago We heard a great
deal about the Herrin affair and
Illinois was given a great deal Of in
ternational advertising, as the worst
place in the world. Now We know
there is worse place and that is at
Harrison, Ark, a place where women
and children must suffer because the
men folk are members Of unions. 4
Herrin women and children were let
alone, but at Harrison they We're
man-handled and made to suffer.
There were no foreigners to blame
and there should be just as a big a
demand for bringing the guilty ores
to justice at Harrison as there was
and is at Herrin. Little is being saia
about the Harrison affair in the pres
of the country and from all indie1
tions the thing will be forgotten, ex-
eept by those who suffered the los
of dear ones and property.

full revenge on imported gunner, re-
mains silent while an Arkansas mob
compels public officials to resign and
eoerces citizens to sign pledges to
withdraw from the strike as the price
for permission to remain in their
homes.
Nothing can be more serious than
this upheayal Of government. While
the taking of human life is terrible,
the installation Of anarchy is doubly
so.
When a mob dictates what public
officials must resign and what citi-
zens must leave their homes and who
can stay at their homes--all without
protest by state and federal officials
civilization can truly be said to be
attacked.
This anarchy, together with the
white-feather inaction of public off
eials, the timidity of greed-blinded
newspapers, and the silence of anti
union organizations that bleat their
100 per cent Amerieanism," all com
bine to make the Arkansas warfare in
the United States.
These forces that have so loudly
harped on law enforcement now stand
sef-convicted as the cheapest of
penny-weight demagagues. They
would see government undermined in
their hatred for wage workers who
dare reject low wage offers of
corporation that defied the railroad
labor board.
Let workers ever bear in mind
that the enforcement of law must
not be a matter of choice by the
pawns of privilege who stand fright
ened before these union smashing
anarchs.
Law must be supreme! 1t must
not be toy for high officials, a sub
seryient press, employers associa-
tions, or other anti-union forces.
Let no organized worker make the
mistake Of losing faith in government
by law, though demagagues have
been exposed.

ABRAHAM LINCOLN.

Abraham Lincoln, the rail-splitter,
who became President of the United
States of America, is, without ques-
ton, the greatest American there
has ever been, if ne is not indeed, the
greatest man lin heart and mind, who
has also been in high position) since
Christs time.
He struck the shackels from the
black slaves of our country. He lived
for the betterment of oppressed and
suffering humanity, and gave himself
day by bay, all that was in him, to
make the lot of man, better.
The exploiters and oppressors of
humanity abhorred and hated him.
They crucified him, and, were he here
today, carrying into effect the doc
trines which he taught during his life
and to which he devoted his every
effort, they, of that element, would
cruelty him again if they were able
to, but in the hearts of the common
people of our day, he lives just as he
did with the great mass of the people
of our country, at the time of his
death.
This is not alone true of these
United States, but of every land
where his history is known. We're
he living today, he would be standing
for and supporting the labor move
ment, joint bargaining, the farmers
cooperative societies, cleanliness and
honesty in public life,--he would be
doing this in the interest of the COM
mon cause and they in our nation, who
are giving most to these causes, are
doing most towards carrying on the
work that Abraham Lincoln was do
ing when his tragic death took him
away. His teachings and works in
spired and encouraged the good men
and women of his and out time, as
they will for all time, to carry on.
In his speech at Cincinnati in the
sSai icooi lie Sdiu L1DOT Is the great
source from which nearly all, If not
all, human comforts and necessities
are drawn"
In the same speech he said, "The
people Of these United States are the
rightful masters of both congresses
and courts, not to overthrow the con-
stitution, but to overthrow the men
who pervert the constitution"
This indicates that even in his
time, there were men in high official
position who, although sworn to up
hold the constitution, in reality, per-
verted it and that he saw in them,
greater menace to American Gov
eminent than any other dangers there
were. 1t also indicates that he had
entire confidence and faith in the
people themselves of these United
States, to be able to govern them
selves on the basis of American in
stitutions. He believed in govern
ment by the law of the people, not
by the individual
One would almost think that, with
prophetic vision, while uttering those
words, he could see in his mind, such
