CLERK MAY BE RETAINED

Montgomery, October 9.-(SpeciaI.)-The prediction in the dispatches from Mont gomery to the Age-Herald that the new United States district judge. Thomas G. Jones would not make a change in the clerk Of tho court seems verified in a statement made by Colonel Jones today
 The Age-Herald correspondent assumed the position that because President Roosevelt had laid aside politics in the appointment of Judge Jones 1t was there for to be considered that the latter would not be biased by political preferences. When approached concerning the matter of his appointment. Governor Jones said:
 The President is soldier and a gen. tleman. He has rendered me an impor- tant office, overlooking all partisan con- alterations. It would be indecent under these circumstances for a Democratic appointee of the President to turn out Republicans and substitute Dem- ocrats in their places. No gentleman un- der like circumstances would think of do- ing such a thing"
 Judge Jones has so far refused to make endorsements to the President for federal patronage. He stated that he did not think the President desired to hear from him on this subject.
 Adjutant-G General Brandon has ordered an election for October 2S to fill the two vacancies in the majorship of the second regiment There are four candidates for the positions Capt. c. P. Anderson of Montgomery, Capt Ernest Carter of Sei- ma. Capt. W. A. Collier of Tuscaloosa, and Capt. J. P. Marchant of Phoenix City.

examining into the issues raised will meet October Is and will probably decide in favor of an eight-hour day but reject the other demands. It is hoped that the miners will regard this as sufficient con- cession. In any event, the Miners Fede- ration does not possess funds enough to maintain 8 protracted struggle. and suf- ficient stocks exist to enable the colliery owners to resist for long time without seriously jeopardizing the industrial situ- ation.
 A disquieting element is the report that a quantity of arms have been smuggled into Moncoau and other mining centers. and it Is feared that the miners may be- come aggressive if the strike should pro-'e a failure.
 The government, preparing for an emer- gency, has drafted endorsements of gendarmes in the coal districts and or dered the neighboring garrisons to hold themselves in readiness.

Stevenson, Ala, June 6, 1901 Dear Sir: have been a great sufferer from bladder trouble for two years and my case was of a very serious nature compelling me to have several painful and dangerous operations. I have also taken many different remedies; I taken Swamp Root three years. Warmers Sale cure two years, and they only gave temporary relief
 After having two operations and pre- pairing for the third, I saw your Texas Wonder advertised, and purchased a bot tie. And I got almost immediate relief and have continued to improve every since.
 My doctors said my bladder had grow ed together in three places and I was suffering almost death No man living can say more than I can say for your Texas Wonder. And I call 1t a World s Wonder and I hope all who suffers will give a trial.
 Wishing you success, I am.
