University Football Team Hard {
 UnwE

Tuscaloosa, Oct. 5.-(Special.) )-The boys at the University of Alabama are working strenuously so as to be in tip top shape for the football game Satur- day, October 8, which will be played at Birmingham with Clemson. Last year the University had an unusually fast eleven, but weighed only 145. This year they will average something like 165, and have combined with their weight, both grit and speed. So many strong. heavy players have they that the varsity has not been picked and many Tuscaloosians are waiting anx- iously to see their first real effort. Clemson always has a strong. heavy team. and there is no doubt but that the game on Saturday will be intensely in- teresting.

With this issue the News

With this issue the News embarks
upon it's seventh successful year. The
paper has undergone many changes
in it's short career, mostly for the bet
ter, and has passed through the usual
ups and downs accruing to a county
newspaper, but always standing for,
and advocating the best interests of
county and town. We believe we have
the best wishes and support of the bet
ter class of citizens throughout the
county, for which we are truly graft
fed, and will endeavor to conduct the
paper in future in such manner as to
merit their esteem aud patronage. A
national, state and county campaign
is now near at hand and in the col
umns of the News will be found the do
ings of all parties chronicled in fair
and impartial manner Mud singing
and vulgarity will be excluded from
these pages, and left to those who have
no other argument to produce, know
ing that by SO doing the News will re-
ceive the concentration of all fair
minded citizens.

Is it possible there is person so
presumptuous in the matter of incor-
poration as to- guarantee that there
will be no taxes to amount to anything
and that the license will be very light?
Who has the burg of Forsyth in their
vest pocket that they can make such
talk? While this has been a matter of
street talk for some days we feel it
must be idle talk. If there is any
truth in this matter it is the strongest
argument we have heard against in
corporation. If one man owns the
town and the rest are serfs, the serfs
do not want to give the king any more
power, which they will certainly do by
voting to incorporate. If any such
power is in the hands of one man it
will not be long until he will be say
ing who shall live here and who not.
