To Build Up Cities.
Manufacturers Record.
As tbe last meeting of the Commercial and
Industrial Association of Montgomery,
Ala., Mr. L. L.Gilbert, tbe secretary, made a
strong plea for measures whereby Montgomery
may become a well-grown metropolis
and center of manufacturing as well as one ol
trade and oommerce. He argued that any
community dependent upon one Industry for
Its suocess Is not well balanced, and that a
town grew to a city of substantial attainment
only by persistent efforts to develop all Its
possibilities. He satd that the position of
Montgomery,between the ooal and iron on
one hand and the timber on tbe other. In tbe
midst of a prosperous agricultural region and
a center of railroad lines. Is destined to be tbe
largest Inland city In tbe South, but suoh a
position could not be obtained If Montgomery
should fall to impress upon manufacturers lis
rcuirmrnon nf ohsan material. cheaD Dower and
fuel, cheap labor, low taxeB and reasonable
transportation facilities. He made tbe following
suggestion:
"We should this year enter upon a vigorous
campaign for small manufacturing enterprises
and convince tbem of the superior advantages
possessed by Montgomery. We
should start a guaranteed fund of 820.000, to be
expended for this purpose alone, 1. e., bearing
tbe expense of removing successful enterprises
and securing tbem desirable locations
In Montgomery. We are now negotiating
wltb a manufacturer employing 180 hands,
doing an annual business of 875.000 and spending
820.000 a year in pay rolls. It will cost
blm $1000 to move, 82000 for a building, 89)00
for a desirable site, and he will lose one
month's business doing It. We can bring
him here, I believe, for 82500, and perhaps less.
Tbls matter will beplaced in tbe bands of the
manufacturing committee, wbo will develop
h pi a Li iur rnigiuc luid ujuucj .auu wuiiuuuicate
with you later. Be ready and willing
with your response. If you have a good, live
suggestion for raising this sum, submit it to
them. They will be glad to receive It. Only
remember, a city gets Industries Just like a
merchant does trade?by going after It."
There are many 8outhern communities like
Montgomery wbicb would be greatly benefitted
by adopting the suggestion of Mr. Ollbert,
that the methods followed by merchants In
building up trade should te followed by a city
In developing Its resources. Whether It Is always
wise to otfer a bonus to a manufacturer
to settle In a community Is a disputed ques*
tlon, the answer frequently depending upon
Indlvldoal circumstances, but any plan
whereby the advantages of a city for manufactures
In the way of labor supply, taxation,
closeness to raw material and markets may
be promptly and properly Impressed upon enterprising
Investors is to be commended and
should be supported by every member of a
community. Carried out Intelligently, and
backed by a willingness of local capital to
unite with that coming froca abroad. It will
place any city in the position for which it le
fitted.

Her tired mother bad fallen asleep over b
sewing. That was not surprising, but tl
startled girl saw bending over ber mothe
faoe two angels, each looking earnestly at t
sleeper.
"what made tbat weary look on this wot

angel of the weak, sadder one. "Has Gi

"Yes, but they have no time to help he:
"No time?" cried the other. "What a

"Well," replied the Angel of Life, "T kei

' Surely the girls help her, too?"

wearily. "Girls who are cultured or take <
