Bibb Graves | chairman of the Alabama democratic executive committee, today issued an appeal to tho democratic party of nine other cotton producing states for a concert of action to relieve the cotton j situation. | Chairmen of the following state | democratic committees have been ; appealed to: North and South Caro lina, Georgia, Florida, Mississippi, Jxmislana, Texas, Oklahoma and Ten nesson. In his message General Graves says: ' If disaster Is to be averted extreme : measures are necessary and the states jof the solid south must quickly work out their own salvation. “The state organizations of the democratic party are the means through which this can be attained. “I think we should each cause the gonstituted democratic authority in our respective states to call, at an early date a conference, caucus or convention of the democratic govern ors and legislators, or democratic nominees for these offices to work out all necessary details and agree upon some effective plan of concerted action.

I’have waited at least a week, though it. seems to me like a month, before nmklriK any further remarks about the condition of the roads. If the authorities cannot, will not, and are not going to fix the streets, then l should humbly crave to suggest that we change their names. Let us say Greene's Gully, Fifteenth Ditch, and The Wrightsboro Atrocity. Walton Way Is beyond even being re-named. Let it he erased sadly from the map and let houses be built on it. The people would ’at least have ready-made cellars. Of course it is acknowledged that the recent work of rain played havoc with the roads, but the complaint is that ap parently no effort has been made to repair the domage. We have had a week of sunshine since. CAN'T some thing be done shout it? If it Is that the authorities have ab solutely no money, let them at least say so. The nntoniobllists would get together and have laws passed to tax themselves If by so doing they could contrive to have something besides plowed fields and dried river-beds to run on. LONG SUFFERING.

It will be disease. The nation whose soldiers can be kept free from dysentery, typhoid, cholera and diseases of the respira tory tracts wilt win. Surgical art and careful nursing, as also the improved treatment of the wounds and first-aid treatments, will go a long way in alleviating suffer ing, but all this is like a drop of wa ter in a bucket when compared with the gastro-intestlnal .disorders which follow the use of Infected water and bad food, and the respiratory trou bles which are caused by damjmess, cold and bad air. The nation, then, that will have the means to sterilise the alimentary canal and the respira tory tract ns a prophylactic and cur ative measure will win In the end. * —r. A. m.

From the Oise to the Meuse, Nothing To Fear. Paris, 6:45 a. m.—An uninterrupted offensive movement by the allies at certain points In northern France was predicted here today as the battle was resumed. The re-taking of Armen tieres, on the River Lys, on the Bel gian frontier, and the occupation ten miles west of Lille of the right line leading towards Douai via. Givenchy and Fromelles was considered as con stituting an excellent advance guard position by reason of its numerous places of support. This, with the prog ress in several other sections, no-, •ably Arras, gave the allies hope of a continuance of their advance. Lieutenant Colonel Rousset, the mil itary critic, in reviewing the military situation refuses to concur In the statement made that the battle of the Aisne has been definitely won by the allies. "One never knows what will hap pen, he says, "and while the enemy will not'take the return route, a re vival of its activity can be produced tn another vicinity, especially If the Germans see .their maneuvers in the north are endangered. But it is cer tain that upon the horizontal line front the Oise to the Meuse the allies have nothing to fear. The New Battle. "As to the new battle, that of Fland ers. It is clearly offensive on the allies’ Hide, the circumstance which Inspires us Is that it will develop on ground more favorable for attack than for de fense and that troops can easily defile for aggressive movements.” ALABAMA AGRICULTURAL LAIR SHOWS WHAT THE SOUTH CAN DO IN RAISING LIVESTOCK AND FOODS Birmingham, Ala.—There have been wany communications from various ports of I lie country showing that the adverse cotton market Is directing the attention of the farm' r to the necessity of diversification In his farming opera tions.

It should be considered almost an economic crime to bring Into Alabama, from any other section. a bushel of corn, a bale of hay, a pig, a sheep, a gout, or a cow. On the contrary, Ala bama should rise to the opportunity and should go to work in dead earnest to take her place In supplying the world with foods of all kinds for which there will ere long be the greatest and most wide-spread demand ever had in the history of this country.
