1t is urged that foreigners run the
saloons and don't care for the country
and if prohibition succeeds will leave.
They have been in this country from
twenty five to thirty years and have
their money invested here in town and
country property and business in great
amounts give employment to labor, and
are respectable men and have no
drunken boys. One purchased the Gal
loway residence in Cantonso ON which he
has lived for years. Withinthe last
few months he has had it torn dow.
and had a fine commodious two-story
residence built who offers it TO any one
that can prove his boy ever took
drink. This is Jimmie Garbarino
whose son was at Bay St. Louis at
school. They are all educated in Amer
lean schools and are true citizens Can
the ministers show better boys? Don't
you believe they will leave? We doubt
IL they would close doors. but like
Baxter & Davis just run hop joints"
like those in the Bishops home city.
Oh, no, don't believe they are going
away!-wait and see.

The anti-prohibitiOnist have all the
law gospel and the prophets on their
side crowned by Christ himself. This
is an indisputable fact. While the pro-
his have neither the testament nor
fact, nor reason, and having failed to
WELD the power of Christ, rightly now
ask human law to do what they cannot.
Don't be influenced by righteous side,
oratory or prejudice, but in the quiet
of your homes reason the matter.

victions.

| ""rhis' (Prohibition) WAS not the
method of Jesus. He lived in an age of
total abstinence societies and did not
join them He emphacisec the dis
tinction between His method and that
of John the Baptist, by saying that
John came neither eating nor drinking,
the Son of Man came eating and drink
ing. He condemned drunkenness. but
never in single instance lifted up his
voice in condemnation of drinking. On
the contrary, He commenced His pub
lie ministry by making, as a miracle,
wine in considera BILE quantity, and of
fine quality, and this apparently only
to add to the joyous festivities of a
of wedding. He apparently used
eustomarily. if not habitually, and be-
fore all the world; and he left as a leg
acy and example for His followers a
sacred use of wine in the most solemn
service of His church. "-Rev Lyman

MISS HOBART AS A MODEL.
The Niece of the Vice Presidential Candi-
 date Is an Actress and Authoress.

date Is an A ctfess and Authoress. Almost any young lady would be con tent to be at once beautiful, talented and wealthy, but to be related to vice pres- dential candidate is an honor which even the most fortunate would hardly despise. Such is the lot of Miss Margot Hobart. a relative of Hon. Garrett E. Hobart. recently nominated as the running mate of Maj. William Mckinley.
 Those who saw "Fhe Milk White Flag" last year may remember a young woman with light brown curls and faultless figure, both admirably set off by the mes senger boys cap and suit she wore in the play. That was Miss Hobart. She is daughter of the late Francis E. Hobart of New York, and is 19 years of age. She was educated at the Convent of the Sacred Heart in New York city. Her father was a cordage merchant, and at his death left her a fortune of $90,000, which she will inherit when she shall be- come of age.
 As a child she possessed remarkable figure and when Nicholas Benvenuti, the artist, was engaged to decorate the Castle Square theater in Boston he met her and persuaded her to pose for him. She became famous as a model and after wards posed for w. Granville Smith, Robert Reid, George Wright, Archie Gum, w. s. Watson and others.
 That life. however, did not please the young woman. then budding into full womanhood. She was energetic and vivaclous, with a good voice and strong penchant for the stage, and less than two years ago she obtained a minor posi- tion with "The Brownies"
 A week later she joined "The Milk White Flag company and afterward, during the same season, played in "The Strange Adventures of Miss Brown"
 For the coming season Miss Hobart has been engaged by Jeff D'Angelis for his starring tour, but prior to that she will appear in New York theater in a sketch written by herself.
 Miss Hobart Is ambitious in a literary way and has written several poems and serial stories, which have been published in small volume.
 In spite of her high social connections she Is a very independent young woman.
 If am not capable of making a repu- tation through my own efforts, will not be dependent upon my relatives to raise me to fame," she declares.
 She is a cousin of Ex-Senator Edward F. Linton, member of the greater New York commission.

 2 The unconstitutional penalty of 10 per centum on each issue of state bank notes by any state or national bank ought to be repealed.
 It is our purpose to maintain a govern ,nent in this state fair and just to all, under control of the white men of Ala bama.

 Our system of public education should he improved and extended so far as the state has the ability, without oppressive taxation.
 We are in favor of honest and fair elections and we recommend that laws he enacted under which primary elec- tions and other party proceedings for the selection of candidates may be con- ducted.
 We cordially invite all good citizens of this state. and especially all democrats who strayed from the party. to unite with us in an earnest and determined ef- fort to maintain good government in the state of Alabama.
 Let us preserve the dignity and credit and peace. and, if possible, the prosperity of our state.

AT SULJIGENT.
A Populist Editor Almost Preeipitates
 Difficulty at Speaking

DlmculGy aG a OpoaklnE.
 Suligent, July 22.-(Special i've came very near having serious trouble here yesterday, it being the day of our county candidates speaking. Capt J. D. MeCluskey, our old democratic war horse, said here a few days ago in prl- vate discussion with a populist that the Peoples Monitor at Vernon was only a tramp paper" and that it would likely do as it had done in the past, seek a more congenial cline ere the November frosts came to kill it and other tender growths. Editor Kearly heard of this and, instead of settling it privately with Captain Me- Cluskey, came yesterday. Ko1b like, to exhibit his "sore toe" in public. Beg ging @ a little time from his brother populist, Hollis he at once proceeded to tell the crowd of this ''vile rumor" and branded it's author as a liar. Captain McCluskey arose and stated that so far as the paper was concerned he did say that it was a tramp paper" At this our demo-Jetfo- -popo-sonian sheriff, ,Jere Pen nington, arose and said that he, being the chief stockholder of the paper, could say it was not Q tramp paper and that Captain McCluskey was a liar
 At this Captain McCluslxey made for him. and but for the timely interference of cooler heads, a free fight and a. sad count would have been the result. It is feared this matter is not settled, as Cap tain McCluskey is known to be g. man who does not let up on anything that concerns the public.
 Captain Bankhead also addressed the people here yesterday. His speech will no doubt result in great good for Joe Johnston aud the entire ticket, for no mans counsel in politics is taken more earnestly to heart by our people than that of our own congressman, John H. Bankhead

received at each appointment and heart fly applauded.
 The campaign committee did the right thing in assigning Captain Bankhead to duty in Marion and Lamar. The people all know him, honor him, and will follow wherever he leads. His campaign has done much to solidify the democratic party, and has certainly caused many to return to the fold who had been stray ing off after strange gods.
 Both Marion and Lamar counties will give Capt. Joseph F. Johnston and his ticket the largest majority awarded to the democratic party for many years.
 The Thirty-frst Senatorial district will elect Judge W. H. Matthews by a good majority. Marion will re-elect Hon. w. c. Davis to the legislature by an in- creased majority, and Lamar county will elect Walter NeSmith by from 300 to 500 votes.

EzFasl tst fsselesfl4 z a-9sfsse rh<G Fy New York state when it came to a showdown. In letter to the New York Morning Journal John c. Sheehan, the Tammany leader among other things, says:
 From what I have heard today there can be no mistalsing the temper of the people. The district leaders are practi- caily unanimous in their opinion that the democratic candidates are popular among the masses. and that bolt would be both inadvisable and in direct opposi- tion to the wishes of democratic voters
 Unless a change of sentiment occurs between now and election day, Bryan will sweep the state. You may call it craze, or what you will. but the people are behind it. They are being educated, and the most frantic efforts of the oppo- sition cannot stem the popular tide
 Relieving this, it has been deemed ad- visable to hold a. meeting of the executive committee of the Tammany organization as soon as possible. This meeting will be held within a few days, when steps will be taken of a definite and official character. You need not fear but that the democrats of this state will be for Bryan. He will carry New York by larger majority than did Cleveland in 1892"
