tions for the city departments. The case has

of Legislature. The same argument might be made as to every other de- partment of government. It Is fool ish economy which would destroy the efficiency and strength of government in order to save dollars to the people. The evils which will result from un- wise and vicious laws which the peo- pie are helpless to correct may cost the State thousands of dollars it may prevent growth and development and then what become sof our boasted economy secured at such price? By some it is claimed that this change is due to an apprehension on the part of corporate interests that frequent ses- sions of the Legislature jeopardize their growth and power. Mir. Presi- dent, there is no disposition on the part of the people of Alabama to do in- justice to these great interests. Their growth and prosperity is essential to our development and progress. All we demand is that they like individuals shall obey the law. and not use pow CTS vested in them by the State for public purposes. to oppress the people. do not fiatter myself that anything I can say will alter your determination to make this change. I only desire to let the country understand that I for 'AG hdNG uSeu NHdt UOhCT uldy pOS- sess as an humble delegate on this floor. to utter my earnest and solemn protest against a measure which I be- lieve to be unwise and which will tend to throttle the liberties of the people and weaken and impair our entire sys- tenn of government by sapping the strength of one of its most important departments.

Brutal Treatment.

A couple of Intoxicated fellows came
into town last Monday driving a small
brown horse to top buggy. The
horse was about exhausted, and was
wet with sweat. They had been beat
covered with welts and bruises; his
been physical impossibility for him
using heavy loaded buggy whip, and
using the heavy end at that, to beat
the poor horse. They came into town
on the run, and as they passed Mr.
Oscar Reichling, who was coming in
on horseback the fellows struck him a
blow with their heavy whip which
brought the blood from Mr.. Reichling's
cheek. They drove to Newman Nv
cry barn and left their horse and
buggy. They had thrown their whip
away, or dropped it, as it was found
in the street just after they had pass
ed by.
Sheriff Gregory arrested them and
placed them behind the bars. They
refused to give their names to the Of
ficers but later it was ascertained that
they we're Mike Worden and his friend
Herman Smith. Worden is the man
that did the work. Smith was but
slightly under the influence, and told a
very straight story; he claims that
Worden is the owner Of the horse and
that the horse got contrary and would
insist on running while Worden wanted
him to trot, and that the whipping
was done 10 make him obey his owners
commands. 1t is learned that Worden
and Smith live at Paloma, and that
they were out for good time and got
an overdose of whiskey.
Herman Smith went to Paloma after
bonds for his friend Worden. He came
back fortified with a bond for one
hundred dollars, but made the mistake
in the character of the charge against
Worden. He thought from the talk
made about the abuse of the horse
that the charge would be cruelty to
animals, but found that it was bat
terry. Worden pleaded guilty, and
was fined fifty dollars.

for the ball, arrived in the afternoon.
They favored us with some choice
music in the open air, aud towards
evening the streets assumed rather
animated aspect. The dance was in
every respect Il great success, both
financially and socially. The hall was
nicely decorated, the music full of life,
and the attendance moro than could be
expected considering other attractions
IN various places in the county. We

The town looks almost deserted after
the holiday. A great many of the boys
are employed in the gravel mine in

the sawmill and some to- the ditch, so
the streets are not very lively in the

Mining Note S,

Misunderstanding operations at the
east shaft were resumed last Monday,
after suspension OF week or moro,
caused by the air compressor getting
out of repair. According TO all re-
ports, the mine is looking well. Not
withstanding tho great depth attained,
| the Kennedy gives promise of eclipsing
its wonderful record of the past in the
| bullion production of the next few
years. There are vast reserves of ore
in the lower levels, and some of it OF
high grade.
Good Hope-The patent for this
mine has been received at the Sacra.
mento land Office. Application was
made over three years ago, but owing
to the fact that portion OF the claim
! lay within the townsite and other
! points of conflict with vested rights, the
| title could not be cleared until COM
promise was effected with the parties
in interest. The property is consider
ed by many to be a very promising one,
and now that there can be no longer
any question about the title, it is
thought no trouble will be met with in
getting capitalists TO take hold and de-
velop it,
Oneida--Reports were current this
week that a strike of rich rock had
been made in this mine. BY inquiries
at the Office, however, We were unable
to confirm these rumors. The mine is
running along smoothly, with no
change OF any moment to report.
Del Monte-A meeting of tie stock
holders of this company was held in
jackson July l. All the old officers
were reelected. The prospects of the
mine are very encouraging. Prepare
tions are being made TO make test
run of 80 tons of ore taken from the
east drift. The company have also
located another claim, called the River.
side, adjoining the Del Monte on the
north--a full claim. They have also
secured new mill site on the Gala.
veras river.
Peerless-Drifting is in progress at
this mine, both east and west. The
west drift has entered softer material,
which is taken as indicating near ap.
proach to the ledge.
