 The horse-fghts of the Mortimer must not be overlooked, 1t Was a sport not unworthy of them, for they took part in it themselves, and risked their lives. The owner or a friend attended his stallion to the fray, carrying a short stick with which he hit it at the psychological moment--that is, at the crisis of the battle. Any one who has seen we'll bred horses fghting will un- derstand that this would be q service of great danger, the stick being short. But also it was the duty of the cham pion to assist his horse when it rose on it's hind-legs to attack.
 How he assisted it, we cannot tell, but evidently he must have been quite close--sometimes, no doubt between the furious brutes. Besides these obvious risks, there was a strong probability that he might strike his antagonists horse, or even the antagonist himself and, whether this were done by accident or by an impulse of passion, signitied

rental charged is based solely on the value of the ground leased, from the | standpoint of site and productivity. The l leases given are for ninety-nine years, i so that the renters have good hold on
 the land, and no hesitancy about im- proving the property.
 The Fairhope company pays all
 taxes out of the rents, except the taxes
 on moneys and credits. This plan
 makes the land values bear all the burden of taxation, and realizes the
 ideal of that great thinker, Henry George. No matter how many improve fnents renter puts on the land he
 leases, his rent is not raised. Suppose you buy seat in the theater You pay stipulated price for it, and the man. agement does not charge you any more
 whether you wear clothing or jewelry valued al million dollars or attend in the plainest attire. After you purchase the seat it makes no difference whether you attend al all or not, in fact. Just so with land-the land is worth no more with house on it than before the house was built, unless there are other causes for an advance in its value.
 Fairhopee owns all it's franchises. It owns the town wharf, which is the source of considerable revenue. It built this wharf without a dollar. Tn- stead of paying for the material and labor in money, it issued certificates entitling the holders to the use of the wharf after it's completion in propor- tion to their contributions Every one of these certificates has been redeemed already and the company has drilled public well and bought a steamboat which plies between Fairhope and Mo bile, on the same plan. As soon as the well is paid for, the water will be free
 There are in Fairhope four stores, a photograph gallery bakery a livery stable, hotel. carpenters and mechan- ics and truck farmers. Truck farming Is the principal vocation of the resi- dents of the community, their produce finding a ready market in Mobile The company is forbidden, under its articles of incorporation, from contracting in- terest- bearing debts. Of course, indi- viduals cannot mortgage leased lands, and they are genrally free from debts of any kind.
