nied-in fact, we know of no laudable enterprise which would come for the rlere asking: 1t is only by united effort that anything can be accomplished In a previous meeting the statement was made that the establishment of rural tel ephones would not be very expensive. We must take into consideration. how ever. that either an exchange must be maintained in the city. or we must con- meet with the Bell Telephone Company. MT. Woodruff, of the Bell Company, tells us it will be much less expensive for the farmers to build the lines themselves, tran for the telephone company to build them, as many of the farmers have their own poles. teams and labor, and are near th., scene of action, while the telephone company would have to buy all timber and send teams and hands from the city. He makes the following proposition: If the farmers and land owners will build the lines to the city limits, the Bell Com pany will then make the connections and gIve them the residence rate of the city, which is $2.50 a month.
 "The committee agrees with Mir Wood ruff. as to the expense of construction and believes with him that the price which the company would have to charge for building the lines would be prohibit ory. We find ourselves between two al- ternatives-we must either build our lines to the city limits and there connect with the Bell Company. or build our lines to the city and maintain an exchange

(Communicated.) AN OPEN LETTER.
J. Thas. Hefiin Explains His Connec-
 tion with the Jacobi Case.

Goodwater, Ala, April f. To the Voters of the Fifth District:
 It has come to me that some parties have been employed to go over the dis trict circulating a report to the effect that I wrote a letter to the Governor urging him to pardon one Jacobi. This is not true. as the Governor himself will testify. The facts are these:
 The Board of Pardon is composed of the State Auditor, Attorney General and Secretary of State. The Board cannot pardon any one. It can merely recom- mend and the Governor uses his own dis cretion in grating a pardon. When two members of the Board agree to this or that course the question is settled, as the majority rules. As to the case of Jacobi:, The Governor, the Attorney General and the Auditor at a meeting of the Board passed on the application In my absence. I reached Montgomery from Birmingham, where had been for a visit to my sick wife, and I found the Board in session. The Attorney General and the Auditor informed me that they had passed on the Jacobi case and had recommended his parole or pardon. The majority had spoken-the case was closed. There was nothing that I could do that would change the situation. did. how ever. then and there state my opposition to this action. although the report of the Board recommended parole.

 said the Kentucky farmers worked their brood mares on the farms and found 1t a great advantage to the health and devel- opment of the animals.
 W. H. Vaughan gave an interesting de- scrtption of blowing and narrowing with a traction engine. He said he could blow up his lands deeper faster and cheaper than with mules, and harrow 1t at one operation, at a cost of 30 to 50 cents per
 acre. He could blow and harrow about

 If we should decide to connect with the Bell Company. farmers living on the same road can build their line without forming stock company. Our advice, however. is for the organization of such a company, which would build all lines in the county jointly. In many sections the public roads are sufficiently near each other for wires to be concentrated on one road, and brought in on one set of poles, thus curtailing expense. tE
 Tt is unnecessary to speak of the bene- fits to be derived from such a system. They are simply beyond computation. It would prove of great assistance to the Board of Revenue in looking after tho roads and bridges; it would aid the sheriff in bringing the guilty to justice, and the county would doubtless be willing to con. tribute to its establishment"

COMMITTEE RAISED TO MAKE

Agricultural Association Meeting Well Attended by Montgomery Planters and Subjects of In-
 terest were Discussed.

Farmers of Montgomery County are determined to secure a telephone system connecting the rural homes.
 At a well attended meeting yesterday of the Montgomery Agricultural AssocI- ation the Executive Committee was au- &horized to canvass the farmers of the county and ascertain how many of them would contract for telephone service.
 President M. B. Houghton presided at the meeting, which was held at noon yesterday dn the rooms of the Association on Commerce Street.
 The following new members were elect ed; A. L. Tyson, H. P. Robertson, J. w. Huger, Jesse M. Jones. H. c. Slaughter, ]. c Chestnut, E. B. Chestnut. B. R. Smith, H. B. Weathers, J. S. Pinckard.

(Communicated.)

Replying to the article that appeared in this paper copied from the Wilcox Progress and characterized as "Commu- nicated' the editor of The Troy Mes senger begs to say that the article in question in no wise represents his sen- timent.
 In further explanation we will say that the article attacking Hon. A. A. Wiley was an advertisement. and we therefore, styled 1t as Communicated which is a custom followed by the best newspapers.
 We can go further and make the state ment that we entirely disagree with the article in question, that the same is abusive in tone and that the opposition to Mir. Wiley has made itself guilty Of descending to a low plane of campaign, to which the friends of Congressman Wi lev never descended nor wish to descend.
 The people of Pike County have known Hon. A. A. Wiley all his life and It Is safe to say that such abuse as Is ex- pended in that article will have the effect only of bringing his friends around nm nm to make answer to the friends of MT. Graves with a most decisive majority for Hon. A. A. Wiley.
 The views of Mir. Graves are exceed ingiy visionary, and are expressed with the calculation of winning votes. Tho as- surance of MT. Graves to accomplish the most difficult of schemes Is born of inex- perience. With childlike innocence he seems to believe that when he enters the congressional arena he will be well comed as a prophet and all the world will stand still and listen to the new Moses.
 But MT. Graves would find 1t different should he ever go to Congress in Wash ington. He will meet with many veter- ans who had to come down from their high hopes and likely he would be placed on a committee such as of ventilation and acoustics that would do his con stituents no good. for thank Heaven the second district has plenty of ventilation

ABILITY OF WILEY COMPELS
 NOTICE OF THE NATION
Two Terms of Brilliant Service Has Brought Him Fame Beyond the Borders of His
 Native State.

Happily, however there is no doubt of Hon. A. A. Wiiey's election. Mir. Wi ley stands in the order of promotion af- ter two years. of brilliant service and every day in Congress only adds to his usefulness. ksl F.
 The Progress charges Mir. Wiley for trying to be a picturesque figure. which Is far from the truth. Mir. Wiley has been plodding and painstalxing. he is gradually gaining national reputation, and recently there appeared an editorial of praise on him fin one of the Demo- cratic papers in staid, old and scholarly Boston that has but little use for pie turesqueness in character.
 So highly has our Congressman been honored. that when as great a national figure as Senator Hailna was buried, Mir. Wiley was the only Congressman from the South whom Speaker Cannon appointed on the funeral committee. The entire State has recognized the ability and the rapid rise of Congress- man Wiley and in every district there have appeared editorials advocating his reelection. His usefulness has just be- gun and his ability is sure to make him soon leader on the Congressional floor.
 It Is peculiar that the Progress is att tacking Mir. Wiley for the various bills he has introduced In behalf of the Sec ond District. Mir. Wiley has stuck to his post in Washington attending to his du- ties. If The Progress means to say that Congressman Wiley has not introduced and accomplished measures for his con- stituents until recently, then that paper is poorly posted and 1t forfeits the right to express an opinion. Probably Hon. A. A. Wiley has introduced too many meas ures for his constituents and some of them may not pass. But Mir. Wiley acts from the principle that he who asks for much will get more than he who asks for little or nothing
 It iA our belief and our fervent hope, that our own Ariosto Wiley will remain m Congress for many terms to come.

CLOSE OF CAMPAIGN.
Candidates in Bibb Have Not Stopped
 to Mud Slinging.

I Centerville, April 9.-(Special. )-The po- litical campaign in this County closed to- day. The Confederate veterans held a grand reunion at Scottsville and all of the candidates, and many of their friends were there.
 The contest in Bibb County. while 1t has been warm, has been free from bit terness and personal abuse.
 So far as the candidates for State of fees are concerned. there has been but little excitement For Associate Justices of the Supreme Court. Dowdell, Denson. Anderson, Sayre, Selheimer, Kelly and Tyson will get great many votes in this County
 It seems that Conner will carry the County for President of the Railroad Commission. Captain Koib spoke here Wednesday night to crowd of thirty persons. His coming had not been ad- vertised. consequently the crowd was small.
 Hon. J. F. Thompson seems to bc in the lead for Solicitor of the Fourth Cir cult. He will get, practically, a solid vote in Bibb County and will get a great many votes in the other four counties which compose the Fourth Circuit. The indications are that full vote will be boiled in the County.
