THE DRUG STORE
 WAR ON AGAIN
SIoss Pharmacy SIashing Prices on Patent Medicines
 and Drugs.
The drug store war is on again.

The drug store war is on again..
 Yesterday MT. Lundie Sloss, of the Sloss Pharmacy, in Twentieth street. opened up the war on night price medicines again and declares he will continue it perma- nently.
 q have ample capital" said MT. Sloss last evening, "and propose to sell the peo- pie medicines at moderate prices, req sonable profit is satisfactory to me. The day has passed when the people will pay a druggist an hundred per cent. profit on his goods. It is not just to the people that the druggists of a town should form a combine and sell their goods at exorbi- tant prices.
 "We are doing an act which I feel sure find it profitable in the large increase of sales which will come with lower prices.
 "Of course the old druggists will at tempt to throttle my business. They make cut prices for time to injure us, but think ing people know they will only do so for a brief time. Could they drive us out of business tomorrow they would put their prices up again in an instant.
 We propose to quote our prices to the people daily and we feel sure they will ap- precfate progressiveness and low prices and give us their trade"
 Some of the older druggists are indignant with the Sloss boys for pushing their busi- ness in this way, but the public is delight ed. Twenty-fice cent liver pills ar- 1~wn to 15 cents and dollar patent medicines to 70 cents. The apothecary shops are fight Ing, but the medicine using people like it.

cratic state convention From the at tacks that the gold press have been mak- ing on MT. Tomlinson since he delivered this speech it is evident that they were not pleased with it. We do not suppose 1t was MT. Tominson's intention to try to please the gold standard people. Maybe some of them are like the man who was being pros- ecuted for stealing, who remarked that the prosecuting attorney had very disasreea- b.e voice. The speech is a very able one and states the democratic position in no uncertain way.

The committee, headed by General Fred s. Ferguson, left on the afternoon train for Mobile and will this morning distribute the provisions among the hungry soldiers who will say grace with a will when they sit down to the first square meal they have had in seven long days.
 Their hearts will go out to the generous people of the city and the knowledge that they are not forgotten at home will bring tears of joy to the eyes of the bows in blue, who turk upon the shore of the Mexico gulf which alone separates them from suf- ferng Cuba whom they have gone to suc- cor and to free.

The menu of the brave Alabama volun- teers in camp at Mobile will undergo a radical change for dinner today. The car- load of good things sent from this city will have been distributed, and corn beef and dry bread, which has constituted their chief diet for the past week will go begging in face of the well-stored commissary depart ment of each individual soldier, who will feast to his hearts content and think of home and mother.
 The car in which the provisions were transported was placed at the disposal of the committee in charge through the cour- tesy and generosity of the officers of the Louisville and Nashville railroad. It was stationed on the side track at the foot of Nineteenth street Friday morning and the generous people of Birmingham did not fail to respond to the appeal which had been made in behalf of the boys who had gone to the front.
