Expressions on the Candidacy of MT. Pettus.
 District Conference.
 Demopolis. July 13.-(Special Corre- spondenee.) .)ZThe announcement of Hon. F. l.. Pettus' candidacy for guherna- torial. honors which the Age-Herald brought to us this morning, has caused good deal of stir among our politicians. In order to find out the popular expres- sion arding the announcement your orres,tndent made the rounds and learned about as follows: MT. Pettus has a good following at this place who would support him provided he did not make the free coinage an issue. In consuita- tion with one of our most influential men he said: Il am a sound money man. 1 was not up to a short while ago. l thought till then that more money was what we wanted but since reading Car lisle's speech l began looking into the question. and have shifted my position to the sound money side, believing that this will result in the best results to the country Yet do not think our party is fin position to read man out simply because he favors either side. The fact is 1 would not give a cent for a mans democracy who would not agree to sup port the nominee, no matter which side he was on, and especially do l think that d candidate ought to say my feet are bro@d enough to stand on any plat form which the party adopts, be it for or against silver If Frank Pettus comes out this way I will support him. If he makes free coinage an issue then 1 do not think could do so."
 Col. B. F. Elmore said T do not be- lieve that Frank Pettus has announced himself as he is reported to have done. In fact, I am confident he is a sound money man.
 E. E. MeCarty, member of the county executive committee. said: "I think Pettus has done bad thing. He cannot carry Marengo county whether he be for or against free coinage"
 Maj. John R. Robertson said: 'I could never support free silver man, unless it was Joe Johnston, and 1 would do that only on account of personal grounds
 Mayor Gesner Williams said: "I will never give my support to free silver man."
 Mir T. F. Howze said: "T have not thought of the matter much. but as it ap- pears to me now l think I would support Pettus provided he did not make free coinage an issue. If he did this 1 could not give him my vote"

what Dresses to Take on Visit.

Harper's Round Table.
 How much luggage you must take when going on a visit depends on the length of the visit and the number of eil- agreements it will include. As a rule in our changeable climate, you will need in going away from home something thick and something thin. A trunk is a great comfort, though one can manage with a large bag or telescope, while a mans suit case lends itself finely to the folding of girls gown.
 With two or three pretty 1shirt-waists and a nice skirt. simple dress for even ings. and a warm stuff costume of serge or flannel for cool or rainy mornings. girl will be supplied for every needful re- quirement. Ones own dainty home ward- robe is sufficient for visit, and if the sailor hat be trimmed the shoes and gloves in order, and the girl carry her. self gracefully, nobody will think sec ond time about her dress.
 As soon as possible after a journey lay aside your travelling dress and make fresh toilet before joining the family. Try to ascertain the family habits and conform with them.
