STATE WILL BOARD THEM
Colonel Cox Misunderstood, It
 Would Seem. SOLDIERS CAN REST EASY No Pay for Ratons Will Come Out of Their Pockets Official Statement to
 That Effect.

Montgomery, June 5.-(Special) )-Maj. W. J. Walden, who is private secretary to
 the governor, authorizes your corre- spondent to make the official statement
 for the information of the military of the state that the soldiers will not have to
 pay for the.r own rations during the en-
 campment the interview with Colonel
 Cox of the First regiment, as printed, to
 the contrary notwithstanding.
 Major Walden says the facts are these,
 and he so wrote Colonel Cox: The gov
 ernor is not authorized to give his war
 rant on the encampment fund until the
 camp has been established. It is cus-
 tomary for the governor to authorize the coloneis, however, to negotiate obliga- tons of the state for sufficient amounts to establish the camp. Colonel Cox was so notified, but appeared not to be en- tirely satisfied with the arrangements perhaps preferring not to take any obli- gation Of the encampment on himself, even with the state behind him. Of course his action in the matter would only affect his regiment, the First, and the chances are he will be prevailed on to change his mind and cash the obliga- tion of the state, which Governor Oates will furnish him. Major Walden says the $15000 will be ample to defray all of the expenses of all the regiments, and that the military need not give themselves any uneaSineSs,

PRESS SEATS AT ST. LOUIS.

Metropolitan Dail1es Amply Provided for,
 but Country Papers Snubbed.
 St. Louis, June 5.-Arrangements have been made for the seating of the press representatives in the national republi- can convention, and the AIS seats In the press stand have been allotted among the metropolitan newspapers of the United States. The United Press, the Southern Associated Press and the Chi cago Associated Press have been allotted six seats each on either side of the chair mans desk. The papers of New York. Chicago and St. Louis will get the great est number of seats each. It has been decided to give to the Journal, Sun, Her aid, World and Tribune of New York six seats each, and to the Brooklyn Eagle, New York Mall and Express. Evening Post, Daily News and Telegram two to three seats each. Provisions have also been made for seats for correspondents of the leading Philadelphia, Baltimore and Boston papers. The papers of the principal interior cities are also taken care of on the basis of one to two seats, according to the size of the city and i'm portance of the paper. The Chicago news papers will stand on the same footing as the St. Louis newspapers in regard to the distribution of correspondents seats. Each St. Louis paper will be allowed six seats in the press stand, but as matter of courtesy they will take the seats farthest removed from the chairman's table. Country papers will not find room in the press stand, owing to the great de- mand made upon the accommodations by the metropolitan papers. An effort has been made to secure 100 seats for the interior press of Missouri, but 1t is not likely that it will be successful It will be simply question of room that must be met, and the committee is already puzzled to find accommodations for the men from the big cites

Election of Congressman in Oregon N ot ct
 Declded-Legislature Republican.
 Portland, Ore, June 5.-Ellis, republi- can, has gained lead of 192 over Quinn, populist in the Second district congress sonal fight since last night. The fight in both the First and Second districts is so close that nothing short of contest will decide who is elected. The latest fig ures obtained give sixty-one republican members of the leglsla ture out of ninety. Thomas H. Tongue, republican, in the First district, is 67 behind. There is one precinct supposed to be populistic in Klamath county, which has not been heard from, which gives 35 to 45 majority for the populstic candidate. At the re- publican state central committee head quarters the claim is made that Efis was elected by 200 plurality. With six pre- cincts not counted in this county. the vote in the Second district stands Quinn, populist, 11,057; Ellis, republican, Il. 1.OS7. The figures in the First district are: Van derburg, populist, 19,072; Tongue, repub- lican, 18874.

SECOND EDITION.
PROSPERITY" IS ITS PLANK.
President Jemison'S Call to Aabamians- -Ev- cry Section and Subdivision Should
 Be Represented at Montgomery.

The following card has been issued by Hon. W. c. Jemison of Tuskaloosa, pres- ident of the Alabama Commercial asso- citation:
 There is no organization in the state of Alabama today that can accomplish for the general welfare of the common- wealth as much as the Alabama Com mercial association is capable or. Not alone are the cities and towns benefited by it's workings, but every village and cross roads and every farm in the state can be made to feel it's powerful infiu- ence for good. Every section and sub- division of Alabama should have a rep resentative at the meeting to be held in Montgomery on the 10th instant, and de- wise such a work of a permanent kind that it will be felt as power beyond the confines of their own territory. The as- soclation is so entirely non-political and non-everything else, except what it's name indicates, that it must of necessity be the friend of every individual, of every railroad and other public carrier and the laboring man and the capitalist alike. Every plank in the platform is covered by one word-prosperity
 Then from all parts of the state let us come together as one man and by united effort build up the waste places in our commerce and all industrial matters
 The farmers, miners, merchants, work ing men and manufacturers and all bus iness people should be represented in this business congress on the 10th, and come prepared to seriously take up the great work of the organization.
 Our capital city of Montgomery, whose latch-string is always on the outside of her hosp,table door to her visitors, has a host of splendid business men in every branch of trade, and it is eminently fit place for this meeting.
 If possible special rates on railroads will be arranged for by MT. w. J. Boles, the acting secretary of the association.

Seaboard Air Line if Advisable.
 Washington, June 5.--Postmaster Gen eral Wilson has turned over to the de- partment of justice the case of the Sea- board Air Line railroad, recommending the prosecution of officials of that road, if in the opinion of the attorney-general. such action is advisable. The papers in the case submitted to the department of justice allege that the Sea board Air Line is guilty of an attempt to defraud the government by padding the malls during the month of March last, during which month the test weighting of mail matter over that line was made in order to form an estimate of the amount of matter carried by the road, which would enable the postoffice department to make a four years contract for such service and fix the rate of compensation.

Everything is now ready to be turned over to the Third regiment, which will go into camp Monday.
 The quartermaster and commissary captains of the Third regiment reached the city yesterday, and today Capt. A. E. deFuniak, quartermaster and Capt. +. l.. Demere, of the commissary depart ment of the Second regiment, will formal ly turn over their departments to the visitors. Colonel Elmore of the Third regiment arrived last night, and will go out with Colonel Clark this morning to take formal charge of the grounds. Colonel Clark stated to a State Herald reporter yesterday that if Birmingham responds as she should and as he is satis- fled she will, in meeting the expenses of the encampment, which Is not included in the appropriation by the state, there will be no difficulty in having the Third regiment encampment held in Birming- ham every year hereafter. Birmingham has never yet failed to stand squarely by the military, and will not allow the vis- itors to be assessed to defray their own expenses. There will be no kicking over small matters with the Second and Third regiments along this line.
 
 Tonight the Officers club will meet at the armory of the Jefferson Volunteers dC o.oU. IHe TltetlDB was QeIefFeQ III or der to have present the officers of the Third regiment, who will arrive today.
 Among some of the special features of the encampment will be target practice, a sham battle, governors day and prize drilling.
 Music will be furnished by the brass and reed band of the Second regiment.
 The ladies are always admirers of the soldiers, and the boys reciprocate this ad- miration, hence a standing invitation is extended to the fair ones to visit the en- campment every afternoon.
 Ex-Capt. G. F. Hart is expected and will go into camps with the Huey Guards. In the armory of the Guards is a crayon picture of Captain Hart, executed by Miss Julia Ward, alongside of which is also an excellent picture by the same ar tist of the lamented Captain Huey. r

Whether in the form of pill powder or liquid, the doctors prescription for blood diseases is always the same mercury or potash. These drugs bottle up and poison and dry it up in the system, but they also dry up the marrow in the bones at the same time.
 The suppleness and elasticity of the joints give way to stiffness, the rack ing pains of rheumatism. The form gradually bends, the bones ache, while ldecrepitude and helplessness prema. turely take possession of the body, and it is but a short step to pair oi crutches.
