tive of The Advertiser he would probably be absent about three weeks. Judge Jones has had no vacation this year, and only a short one of ten days last year, and has been constantly holding court here and in Birmingham and Huntsville. As nearly all the cases of fraudulent conveyances of property are now litig rated in the bankrupt court, the pressure of this, with the other business of the courts, is very great. Judge Jones defer ed his the Burkhalter case. arising in the North ern District, involving the propriety of authorizing the receiver to complete the unfinished work of Burkhalter & Co. on the sanitary sewer at Birmingham and an unfinished contract with the Seaboard Railroad. The creditors divided in the question. The experts having reported that there was money in it for the estate, the court authorized the receiver to do the work.
 While Judge Jones is absent the grand jury remains in session. The criminal docket will be taken up January and the civil docket early In February of which the Clerk will give due notice.

The New York World and The Brook 'lyn Eagle are disputing over the claims each makes to have been the first to ad- vocate the nomination of Mir. Cleveland. and The World says:
 Early in February last, while The Eagle was asserting that MT. Cleveland was not to be considered. owing to the intense prejudice against putting the Presidency for third term. in the hands of any man." The World was giving many reasons why MT. Cleveland was the logical and the strongest candidate of his party"
 To give credit where credit Is due is a duty and should also be a pleasure. On June 2. 1902, nearly eighteen months ago. The Advertiser had an editorial strongly and unequivocaily advocating the nomi- nation of Cleveland by the Democracy After speaking of his fitness and eminent qualifications, and of the proper time to advocate his claims. the editorial conclud- ed with the words: "The time is here, the occasion has arrived and the man is found." The matter may not be of much importance now, but the truth may as well be maintained and shown.

Must Stop Liauor Habit.

It is reported from a trustworthy source. says The Chicago Chronicle, that Prcsi- dent Howard Elliott /of the Northern Pa cific has decided to follow the example set by several leading railroads Of the country and on January l the employees of that system will be required to ao- stain from the use of intoXicantS, wheth- CT on or off duty. MT. Elliott and the other executive officials of the road arc on a tour of inspection at present and it is said that one of their objects i'll making the trip was to outline their plan of action.
 On New Years Day they will begin a very much closer and stricter supervision of the conduct of the men employed Dy the Northern Pacific and it's branches and it is said that taking a drink of liquor will be considered sufficient prOvocation for immediate discharge from the serVico, One of the prominent officials of the op- erating department is authority for the statement that after January l this rule will be enforced rlgidly, as the officials ot the company had decided that by so do- Ing the service would be greatly inn proved.
 Several of the largest systems in ti:c East and West during the past two years have adopted similar rules for their train men, engineers and conductors and many of the roads have included all their tin- ployeS. It is said that great improvement in efficiency resulted, It is on these grounds that the Northern Pacific Viii adopt the new rule.
 An operating official of one of tna Western roads in speaking of the value of such rule said that the regulations against the Use of intoxicants tended to increase the efficiency of the employees.
 Strict discipline" sad he, lis not irh- some to the men who take pride in their record and have the interests of the road at heart. Such rule helps to keep the men who care less for such matters m hne If 1t IS worth while to prohibit the use of intoxicaats while on duty, ] do not sec that ie is not equally worth whiie to prohibit intoXicantS entirely. It is a good rule and must extend to all the r1i- roads in the country in the near future.."

By building a track straight across an arm of Salt Lake the Southern Pacific Railroad expects that a saving of two hours will be effected. but the new route will cost four million dollars. This shows how modern railroad systems spend money to gain time.

What Ex-secretary Herbert Says.

Washington Special to Atlanta Journal.
 Former Secretary of the Navy Hilary A. Herbert said today:
 "I have read Mir. Clevelands letter. It will be a disappointment to his many friends who were looking to him as the man who, if nominated, would assure Democratic success. A year ago 1t seem ed hopeless to think about Cleveland, but the change of sentiment in his favor has been wonderful. It has been very mo- ticeable in Alabama, now that MT. Cleve- land has put himself out of consideration, his friends will all. think, agree that the discussion of his possible candidacy mas been fortunate for him and for his party that the country has occupied itself for a season discussing him and his record in way that has demonstrated the fact that he has not been compelled to die before he was vindicated after having served as President for two terms. His declining years will be cheered by the knowledge that he is held in affectionate regard by his countrymen.
 'As to Judge Parker, the points made by The Brooklyn Eagle are well put. It may turn out after careful consideration that he would be the man. have an idea however, that this is not the time for any warm advocacy of favorite can- didates.
 ''The Democrats have been out of pow CT now for years. We can only win by putting on a wisely constructed platform our best man."

Good Streets and Roads.

Have vou ever given any thought to the real benefit the paved streets and graVeled roads have been to our city and county. asked d large land owner anI tax payer yesterday. "I can well remem- ber the time when the question of good roads and paved streets was being moot ed. and 1 recall very distinctly the fact that some of our leading and most sue coss.ul citizens and business men We're opposed to both. And they criticised most severely those who were favorably agitaung such improvement sentiment. Some of the principal property owners on Commerce Street violently protested ste. against paving that main thoroughtare and actually threatened to take the mat ter into the courts. They were mol flied tor time however. and were asked to give the Belgian blocks a fair trial. lt waS put down and took the place Of the old mud holes and slush pools all along that street. It was not long before their opinions were changed and those same men became the most enthusiastic friends Of paving and good roads. The results of both have proven their wisdom, for they have increased values many fold.

The Oklahoman, publihed in the town and Territory of Oklahoma, wants Attor- ney General Philander Knox to answer a question which 1t puts this way:
 When a ompination of men engaged in the packing business buy steers at a less price than they can be raised, divide them up among several concerns according to their needs, and then put the dressed product on the market at a figure which makes the meat bill stagger, what do you call that? From the Washington view this may be competition, but out he c, every body has formed the habit of call ing 1t highway robbery.
 It is cruel to ask Philander such hard questions when he is fixing to get ready to make a start at supp essing the postal scandals. It might confuse him.

tired, worried mothers in warm baths
with Cuticura Soap, and gentle anoint-
ings with Cuticura Ointment, purest of
emollient skin cures, to be followed in

scaling, as in psoriasis; the loss of hair
and crusting Of the scalp, as in SCALED
head; the facial Disagreement. as in
pimples and ringworm; the awful suf-

almost superhuman virtues to success
fully cope with them. That Cuticura
Soap, Ointment and Pills are such

dence. The purity and sweetness, the
power to afford immediate relief, the
certainty of speedy and permanent
cure, the absolute safety and great
economy have made them the standard
skin cures and humOur remedies of the
civilized world.
