 Mir. Pettus.-I would like to ask the gentleman a question. If his remark d while ago about the different condl- lions in this State, had reference to the ability Of the different Commission CTS Courts, does not he think that tns additional responsibility would raise the standard of the men in those Commls- doners Courts?
 MT. Oates-That is an untried expsr- iment.
 MT. Pettus-Another question. Un- der Section 25 of Article W. in the old Constitution. the Legislature could pass general law to give the people of Swamcut Beat in Limestone County, an anti-stock law?
 MT. Oates-Now any legislator who will address himself to the work and who is at all learned in the law, will find not much difficulty in framing general laws under which nearly ev- cry one of these things, and in fact all of them. can be readily performed, and to commit 1t to the County Com missioners, why sir. while we have in a good many counties very able men on the Boards of Revenue and County Commissioners. We have in other places and at other times. some men who are not very capable. I know in a county not a great ways from Montgomery where a man served as County Com missioner for many years, and could not write his name. While he was a man of good judgment on matters which were presented to him, and could pass fair judgment on them, but illit- crate men. in a sparsely settled coun- try, are not very capable of handling these various questions. My opinion is that If you commit it to them, you will have more litigation and trouble. as there will be greater contrdriety of opinion and greater differences. un- der what Is supposed to be the general law in the different counties. Why 1t will be worse than local legislation

MALARIA.

The people who live in low, swampy countries Seem to take It for granted that Malaria, Fevers and Ague are nec- essary evils. They apparently do not re- alize that these diseases are slowly but surely sapping their general vitality. These intermittent levers, malaria. fever and aRue. swamp fever, jungle fever, etc. are the most persistent enemies of the human race. If the aggregate of harm they do could be realized, they would be fought as plaques.
 These diseases are the result of weak ness. of poisoned, microbial blood and it was long ago demonstrated that Dr. Har- ter's Iron Tonic was an absolute specific. a sure cure It has been conquring and preventing these diseases for nearly half a century It purifes the blood and drives out the poisons.
 It has been thoroughly demonstrated that the insects which infest new coun- tries and low swampy localities are ve- hicles for carrying disease germs. If your blood is pure and healthy you need have little fear of these. But if your blood is bad it is not in condition to resist the poisonous stings, and as a result the germs of disease obtain footing.
 Protect yourself by using Dr. Harter's Iron Tonic. It will not only drive out but keep out malaria and other levers of like kind. It has done 1t in so many thousands of cases that you cannot doubt.

LABOR SAID TO BE
 SCARCE IN DISTRICT
Tennessee Company Needs Men for the Works at EnsIey-Can Employ More
 When Improvements Finished. ..

The scarcity of labor in this district Is making itself felt more strongly at this time than ever In the history of iron making in Alabama. Missionary agents have been sent out over the country to secure men for both steel and iron work, as well as miners. The Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad Company is making especial effortesto secure skilled laborers for their works at Ensley.
 In speaking of the scarcity of men and the conditions that exist at Ensley, MT. John Mcconnell, general superintendent of the Ensley division of the company's works, said:
 "At the present time there is a good demand for laborers and those who are familiar with the work to be done around furnaces and steel-m making plants can find immediate and steady employment. There Is also a demand for a number of skilled men In various lines of the work, and the development to be made in the near fu- ture will call for the employment of hun dreds of new men in all capacities about the great works.
 'One attractive feature of Ensley and other parts of Alabama is the uniformly comfortable climate, and the entire ab- sence of labor troubles. There is a marked harmony existing between the Tennessee people and our employees
 By October l we expect to be turning out 2O000 tons of steel per month, and when our new rail mill and foundry, ma chine shops and other departments are in full working order We will need all the men we will be able to secure"

uoC Ouly cured my catarrh by invigorating my whole system until to-day I feel ten years younger and in complete and perfect health-in fact, a new man, thanks to Peruna. a."-Delancy Young.
 When patient calls at drug store to procure some Peruna and the druggist recommends something else that will be just as good, it may be that he does not always recognize the responsibility that he Is taking upon himself. Such sub etitute is always sure to result in failure and may result fatally.
 In some cases catarrh has tendency to become chronic and it not infrequent- ly sets up disease that finally proves fatal. Peruna taken in time will pre- vent these cases. To substitute some other remedy means dangerous delay.
 It is certainly a great responsibility that any druggist takes upon himself to recommend anyone to take some imita-

LOONEY REPLIES
 TO CHIEF AUSTIN
Detective Says He Can Prove
 Himself Innocent of e Any Charge

The statement of Chief Austin before the board of police commission Tuesday night regarding the records of J. T. vick- cry and David S. Looney have created considerable talk throughout the city. The fight of the chief against the Southern Detective Agency, of which Mir Vlckery Is manager, has been in progress for sev- eral months. but was only brought be- fore the police commissioners this week. MT, Looney in discussing the charges, said
 Referring to the statements of Chief of Police C. w Austin made Tuesday night before the board of police comms. sioners, will say in defense of myself that my presence in Birmingham Is not to hide myself. but Is known to officers in Atlanta. my former home. I am. not under cover and am working honestly to support my family.
 For the last seventeen years I have been a member of the Atlanta police de- pertinent, working the greater part Of the time on special work. I have prose- cuted a great many people for all crimes known to law, and have made some ene- mics. as any man doing the line of work I have done will do. and 1t is this class of men. who, are now prosecuting me in the cOurtS.
 1T have been honorably acquitted of all charges preferred against me in the courts except some misdemeanor cases now pending. I stand ready and have done so at all times since the charges were made to vindicate myself when given a fair trial.
 My dscontinuance of work for the city of Atlanta was voluntary act, my resig- nation having been rendered in order that I might open private agency.
 seWhite on a visit to Atlanta few days Ago I had given me letters of commenda- ton by the following well-known and responsible gentlemen: Capt. J. W. Eng fish. president Fourth National Bank and chairman board of police commission; w. T. Movers, L. 2. Rosser. Green T. Dodd, l.. deGive, Sheriff J. W. Nelms, Tax Col lecto- A. P Stewart, Daniel W.

GOOD PERFORMANCE.
Rain Did Not Affect the Opera at Lake
 view.

The incemency of the weather thinn sd the ranks of the Lakeview habitues last night, but what they lacked in numbers they made up in enthusiasm.
 Tn spite of the dampening effects of the weather, the Elite Opera Company gave a snappy performance of Fra Diavolo. Like wine, the opera improves with time. and the audiences are thoroughly pleased.
 MT Washburn came to his own again last night, taking the part Giacomo, and his vibrant baritone was heard to splen- did advantage in the certelle, which con- tinues to be the favoite bit of music tn the opera, never failing to receive an enthusiastic encore.
 The work of the company keeps up to the high average of the opera itself. which is by far the most intensely interesting and thoroughly pleasing of the repertoire so far.

 Residence of Police SEVEN MEN OUTSIDE CITY Chief Austin Says Fight Is Made By Persons Arrested for Violating the Sunday Laws-Davis
 Figurehead.
SEVEN MEN OUTSIDE CITY

Officer Johnson of the Birmingham po- lice force will have Judge Coleman's de- cision that policemen must reside in the corporate limits tested in the Supreme Court. The case in which the decision was rendered was entered by A. II. (Baldyl Davis. and has been fought in the courts for sometime. In discussing the matter yesterday, Chief Austin said:
 Under Judge Coleman's ruling, there are seven officers affected. They are Ot- ficers Johnson, Culpepper and Mullin' who reside at East Lake; Gray, who resides at Woodlawn; Officer Hamilton, who resides just out of the city limits at Jonesville; Officer Cole, who resides at North Birmingham, and Officer Jordan, residing just out of the city limits III Elyton.
 "AI of these men have assisted In ths work of raiding saloons for violating the Sunday law, and every Sunday some or them are detailed for this work DaVls IS simply trying to rid the city of set or officers who make it hot for the violaters of the Sunday law. The records or Ol- ficers Culpepper, Johnson and Joroah stand among the first. Officer Joroah record being $1003 in four months service.
 This man Davis Is simply ngure- head for that class of saloon men that have been arrested for violating the Sun day law. His testimony has been lm- peached in the Inferior Criminal Court. In referring to Davis in my annual report I said: This man, who is absolutely without character, has petitioned your honorable body to leave off certain pa trolmen who are living just outside or the city. This man had made his threats against three officers whom l have de- tailed to look after the Sunday violators, and I have been reliably informed that he stated that he did not like to include all the officers Gin his petition) that lived outside of the city, but was compelled to do so, in order to get Officers John son, Culpepper and Jordan"

The rain again saved Chattanooga from defeat yesterday and Lew Whistler went home happy with having secured one game from the Boilermakers It was hard luck that Birmingham couidn have gotten that game, but Selma comes for six games now, and if we don't get five the fans will be unhappy. They would be satisfied with four under extraordin- ary circumstances, but five and even SIX would be delightful
 It was the original plan to take the Boilermakers to Selma for three games and then came back home for three put on account of the non-crowd producing ability of the Central City the games were switched to Birmingham. Selma contains some mighty fine folks ana some thoroughbreds, and 1t is a base ball town of the high order, but the fans there have always been used to seeing their amateur teams win, and when their aggregation takes ia fall before the pig boys they cnt stand the pressure, ana some one has classed them with the "quitters.H |.
 The Selma team is strengthened ana IS playing great ball, and the Boilermakers don't happen to have a real lead pipe on the six coming arguments.
 The game will be called at o'clock tnis afternoon.
