THE DEMOCRATIC NOMINEE,

no the Age -Herald:
 Some of the ''municip'' crowd, or par ties in their interest, are circulating re- port to the effect that MT. Robert Warnock will not continue in the race for mayor should the said "Municip club" put out a man. MT. Warnock is the democratic nominee for mayor of this city, made so by the same party rule that created Mir. Oscar Underwood the congressional. ]. nominee for Ninth district, and is just as much entitled to the office he seeks through party aid and party work as is Mir. Underwood. 'Tis stated as fact that the "municips" are holding regular caucusses and organizing with intention of putting out their man after the congressional election is over, recognizing that should they show tlelr teeth before the November election crop of bolters might develop that would make 1t unhealthy for some one. What is the diff ference between democratic bolter on the mayoralty question and the congressional bolter? They should be disciplined alike from strict party standpoint. MT. War nook Is in the race to the eud. If bolters choose to defeat him goodbye party affilia. tion in Jefferson county. DEMOCRAT.

OLD COURT HOUSES.

To the Age Herald:
 The readable story, "Not Stone," in yesterdays News is slightly faulty in de- tail. It says: ''rhis was the third court house built for Jefferson county and was still standing as late as 1883" That state- ment is not correct. The third court house was destroyed by fire in 1872. MT. David Bridges, who still lives in Birmingham, !, was engaged in the grocery business, occu- pying store adjoining the court house. His store caught fire one night and was de- stroyed, and destroyed the court house and one or two other buildings. Immediately after the destruction of the building Col. James R. Powell, MT. Ben Roden, Frank P. O'Brien and other newcomers, as we were then styled, set on foot movement to have the matter of removal of the county seat submitted to the people. The Elyton people immediately got up subscription and erected a commodious brick building on the site of the old one, hoping thereby to defeat the movement of the then infant city of Birmingham. The few old Bir- miDghamers who still live will not forget that memorable election nor the part the calico pony played in it. Birmingham was successful. After the necessary Legislation contracts were given out for the erection of a jail, which cost S12,000, and later the court house at Q cost of S30 ,000. Total f42,- GOO, and not $50, 900. RIEBoE.

HOPE FOR DYSPEPTICS. A Natural Food That Does Not
 Require Digestion.
THE WAY IT IS DONE
How Mixing With Fruit Acids DigeSts Food Before 1t Is Even Taken Into the
 Mouth.

Natural foods are as a rule insoluble. They must be dissolved before they can be absorbed.
 Digestion is the dissolving of food in our mouth, stomach and intestines. 1t is done by special ferments prepared by special or- gans.
 great deal of energy is used up in dges- tion. We'll people can spare the energy; sick people cannot. People who have not sufficient energy suffer from indigestion.
 It is plain that Paskola, which is an arti- ficialy digested food, will save sick per- son great deal of energy.
 Artificial digestion is the dissolving of food outside the body by the same ferments that dissolve it inside the body. Paskola is fattening food, made of grains and fruit, that has been digested in this way. It also aids in the digestion of other food.
 Sick people need all their energy to get we'll. They should take Paskola. Thin people spend their energy in business or other cares and worry. Paskol. vii! mako them fat without giving their digestive or- gans any work.
 Paskola is an ideal natural fattening food. It is more. It is a natural tonic food that does not create false new energy, but helps you to husband what you have.
 Any one who reads the thankful words which follow will be convinced of the sur- passing worth of this great artiicially di- gested food: :

For three years have been treated by the best doctors in Indiana and Ohio. would get relief for 6 while, but only to get worse again. When I commenced to take Pas- kola did not think that it would do me any good, and had made up my mind to quit taking medicine and let nature take it's course, when one of your little books was thrown in my way, and asked my husband If could try it, and he is sur prised with the result. have takeu four bottles, and today never felt better in my life.

WHAT of tbe United States armyf No more bad Indians to fight, at peace with all foreign powers and absolutely nothing to do. The Chicago troubles have prompted the War Department to encanlp "the boys in blue'' in the principal large cities of the country to hold down strikes in case they should attempt destruction of govern ment property. The Philadelphia Times is rejoicing that the City of Brotherly Love is to be spared such an infiiction, de- claring that troops at Washington and New York will be near enough for all pur- poses, and that the National Guard of l inss4nsylvania is amply able to take care of everything and everybody in their own State.

COTTON seed bring in the Birmingham market 25 cents bushel. There are thirty two pounds to the bushel and sixty-two bushels to the ton. This makes the price of cotton seed S15 50 ton. Not many years ago the planter thought the seed of cotton were nuisance, and would have been glad to raise cotton without seed. Then it was found that oil could be made of cotton seed. and now the price of the seed reduces to large extent the cost of raising cotton.

THERE is great charm in the trust and faith of childhood. They take things on trust. The request, "open your mouth and shut your eyes," is always obeyed, and their belief that something sweet will follow is rarely destroyed. The Republi- cans should learn a lesson of childhood. They are too prying and inquisitive. They never will get any thing sweet if they don't stop it. Let them shut their eyes and open their mouths and swallow the Demo- cratic tariff law, and they will find it sets we'll on the stomach and leaves good taste in the mouth.

Two FAMOUS singers appeared in con- cert in Birmingham one evening last week. Their fame had preceded them, their ap- pearance was well advertised and their coming was generally talked about. Their audience numbered about fifty persons, There was a small admittance fee of two bits charged at the door. The Sunday morning papers made simple announce. ment that they would sing at the First Methodist Church that night. They were greeted by an audience of POGO people. There was no charge at the door. The peo- pie of Birmingham have learned too well the lessons o! economy taught by the hard times.

 POLITICAL EVENTS OF THE WEEK.
 Several important events in the political field have taken place in the past week or ten days, notably:
 The nomination of Governor Waite by the Colorado Popullsts.
 Maine went Republican by 35 ,000 ma jority.
 The nomination of T. H. Aldrich by the conglomerates and the determination of leading Jeffersonians to bolt the nomi- nation.
 w. c. Owens nominated in the Ashland district over Breckinridge.
 Senator Mills made speech against the free coinage of silver.
 Vermont went Republican.
 Congressman Lafe Pence renominated by the Populists of the First Colorado district.

 The New Hampshire Democrats nomi- hated Colonel Kent for Governor.
 Reorganization of the Democratic party against Tillmanism was called for by the South Carolina Democratic Conference Committee.
 Congressman Bryan became editor of the Omaha World Herald and is trying for the United States Senate.
 George PeckhGizz. was nominated for Gov ernor by the Nevada Populists. Montana's Republican State Convention declared for free coinage.

DEMOCRATS MUST STAND TOGErB FER The Democrats of the Ninth Congress sional District have a formidable foe in the person of Mir. Aldrich, and there is no time for getty quarrels, dissensions or chld's play in the ranks of the party. De- mocracJ here is strong enough to overthrow Repu blicani isra if there be united, active effort.
 The party lines should be strictly drawn. Discussions of minor details have no place in this campaign. Campaign speakers should give the party's utterances with guarded tongues, and by thoughtful means awaken the people of the district to a proper appreciation of the danger which confronts them of seeing the district turned over to the Republican caucus of the Fifty fourth Congress. The nomination of MT. Underwood means victory under Demo- cratic barmony--not otherwise. For once the Republican party places as it's stand ard bearer a man of social position, who can command means for prosecuting the campaign, and who will leave no stone un- turned that is necessary for his success even to the end.
 Mir. Aldrich is not a true represen tative of the white voters of Southern Congress sional district. His principal supporters will be found among the negro voters, who have persistently supported the cause of Rad.calism since they were given the right of franchise. With negro committeeman negro secretaries, negro speakers and negro advisers, the party which has never yet be- friended the South, which held the gaiiing yoke upon us for years, places Mir. Aldrich in its lead here, and seeks 10 take away from the white people the right to choose their representative in Congress
