Chief of Police. The Growth of Feed Bills.

The State Auditor yesterday received a stetenl, mt from Ghertff Hartley or Butler County for feed of prisoners during the month of July. This state" ment shows that the State Is due the Sheriff $129 90 for July as,against SosoO for June and $62.10 for May. It must be borne ill mind that there were no arrests during May and June for riding on trains. The July statement shows that it cost the State during this month S5520 to feed prisoners in the Butter County jail on charges of riding on trains.
 The feed bill affords an interesting study. Since the Sheriff began arrest- oig persons again for riding on trains it requires two blank forms instead of one for the feed account. The state me nts for May and June are not bulky, but the July statement, after Storey had been re-employed. is a lengthy ore.
 TWenty-siX persons were arrested during July for riding on trains. Four teen of these persons. mostly white men have been sent to Pratt mines tu serve out sentences. Five of the&' confessed Judgment, four of them art still in jail, one of them made bond. one case was mol pressed and peculia- as 1t may appear one of them was found not guilty after being in jail six days.

DEPUTY SHERIFF STOREY RESUMES
 BUSINESS OF ARRESTING PERSONS IN
 BUTLER COUNTY FOR RIDING TRAINS

From time far beyond the memory of man thece has eeen a disposition resulting from a lack of Sood sense, commonly called wisdom, and d very
 large supply or recklessness mingled
 with desire to ream, Gin common par lance to see the world,) thing the
 heart of all able bodied youths. more especially those of our country. These
 two young men were not an exception
 to this class and left home against the advice and without the consent of their parents and alter short tour
 and rough experience, thelr hearts be-
 gan to yearn tor the good home they
 had so causelessly and iooIishiy lett
 and were endea N,~ing to get back as
 best they could. Being lnoneyless and
 foot-sore. the temptation to ride was
 too great to resist. Consequently they
 are in Pratt Mines as convlcts.
 In the early sixties, when the State of Alabama called for her sons to go
 forth to battle. A. D. Ellis, then
 young man. perfect physical speci-
 men of manly vigor, responded. AS
 the number of his regiment indica .es,
 it was the first to answer the call or
 our State. The duration, the lpriva-
 tions. the modification of aeIeat is a
 part of history. A. D. Ellis went
  and steadfast until the starry cross was furled forever. He gave the best years of his life and shed his blood, (being desperately wounded at kenne- saw Mountain) for Alabama. Then re was a young man, stout of heart ana
 strong of limb. Bow he is an old man asking the State of Alabama to give | him his two sons.
 The offense they were convicted of does not involve moral turpitude and l is of a trivial nature and the law was passed more to protect the interest of
 a powerful corporation than 10 sub- | serve the public good. Had railroad been in existence and it's route lay l through the sacred confines of Fuller | County, Alabama, and this was the only way to his home. the beautiful parable of the Prodigal Son would never have been told. Instead of fat ted calf he would have gotten Pratt | Mines.
 Mr. A. D. Ellis is member in Lood standing of Camp Lomax. United Con- | federate Veterans. and any consider alton that your Exceilency may show him will be appreciated by the nem- bers of that camp
 I hope that your Excellency may see mt to restore these two boys to their distressed father and thus let the great | State of Alabama reeompense m a manner, this old battle scared Veteran 1 for the services rendered. the peril in- | cured and the blood shed by him II, | her defense.
