A Fine Chance to Grow Peaches.
NashVIIIe, Tenn, Feb. 3, 4gU5. )r The Advertiser:


 Editor The Advertiser:
 There are some responsible gentle men in Tennessee who desire to grow peaches in South Alabama for an early market. These persons own thousands of trees, or can procure as many as desired. I have tried to obtain the names of persons in your State who were willing to furnish the cleared lands and the Tennesseeans the trees and go into a partnership in the cule ture of peaches. There is money In the enterprise if the orchards be prop erly managed, sprayed, handled and sent to market in handsome shape
 Thought it would be best to publish this in The Advertiser asking persons willing to enter into such an arrange ment to write me at Nashville. Viii want to put out this spring 3O,0O0 trees. It will require about 500 acres to do this and as much more will be wanted next year. If our plans are carried out one. of the gentlemen and myself willr visit several points in Alabama. Such an undertaking if car- ried into effect will be of immense financial benefit to the community thai accepts. ''i'' Of course it is desirable that tba lands should be on the LouisviIIe and NashVille or some other railway. where shipments can be easily made.
 Yours

QUITE A SURPRISE.
Unexpected Declarations as Presidents
 Private Car Line Views.

Private Car Line Views.
 Washington Special.
 A portion of the debate on the
 Esch Townsend bill in the House which
 attracted more attention. perhaps. than any other. was the positive denial by Representative Hepburn. of Iowa, that President Roosevelt had ever expressed himself as insisting on an amendment to the bill including private car lines, or as in favor of the proposition which has been presented to Congress for legislation abolishing the private car sytem. In his speech today Represent ative Hepburn said: "I say that the President of the United States has never said word recommending leg islation either upon the private car or the private switch, not a word. He
 has been misread he has been misquot- ed. If they had quoted him correctly
 they would have found in that declar- alton of his, that in his opinion there was no necessity for further legislation
 upon these two instrumentalities of commerce"
 In view of the statements which have
 appeared to the effect that the Presi- dent had been calling in various mem bers of Congress and Senators with a
 view to having the Esch-Townsend bill amended so as to include private car lines, the positive denial made by MT. Hepburn created quite surprise. They are already prohibited, so the President
 says" said MT. Hepburn, "by the law now existing. When he makes refer
 ence to them it is to make the pledge
 that existing law, Republican law, shall be enforced against them
 This Is a very weak position for MT. Hepburn to take. What has the legis-
 lative part of the Government to do
 with enforcing law2 Nothing what ever. Then why should the President, being the executive head of the Govern ment, use these words in his message
 to Congress, December 6, 1904: Above all else. we must strive to keep the highways of commerce open to all on equal terms; and to do this 1t Is neces- sary to put a complete stop to all re- bates. Whether the shipper or the railroad is to blame makes no differ ence. The rebate must be stopped, the abuses of the private car, the private terminal track. and sidetracq systems must be stopped |"

The Plan to Hold Cotton


 '"rhe New Orleans plan for retiring 100000 bales of last years cotton crop looks good to me since have be- gun to understand 1t thoroughly" said several saving clauses.
 '"The grower or owner of cotton un- sold this year will certainly be bene- fited if he puts into the pool and re- duces his acreage This will be so whether his neighbor joins the ranks or not. If the man deposits his cot ton with the association warehouses and plants the land in fopd supplies which he cut from last years cotton acreage then he Is going to be in a better fix than the other fellow what ever be the price of cotton.
 Then, you know, 1t was contemplat- ed by the New Orleans Convention to single out the man in every precinct who refuses to reduce his acreage. This man will repent as soon as the pool organization gets well under way.
 When. for instance, the Executive Board has hoarded a good portion of the two million bales the planting sea the acreage inspectors will be in good working order and the Secretary will know just who, in all sections of the South, intends to increase their acre age in cotton or will not-decrease 1t.
 At this stage the Association, in its might, holds the sword of DamocleS over the heads of the disobedient and says, You reduce your acreage or we
  and ruin your chances.
 "I think these features will appeal to the farmers and the result will be the salvation of the South. It is all being done by some energetic leaders in a patriotic spirit and every cotton grower owes his membership to the Association in perfect faith.

1t looks as though some Of the colored
race are determined not to comply
with the provisions of this ordinance,
although they have bsen, in some in
stances, before being arrested, kindly
requested not to throw watermelon
rinds, or to put out trash and other
rubbish from yards unless the stuff is
properly boxed or barre1ed. Then some
will put out trash, etc., after 10

Changing Cruelty.

From the Daily Item, July 26.
County Supervisor Scale, referring
to the statement made in the Items
Columbia correspondence Tuesday,
that an official of the State. peniten-
tiary had charged the county chain
gangs with cruelty to convicts and not
giving them proper care, said this
morning that the penitentiary official
should have specified what county
chaingangs he referred to, unless he
intended to condemn all the chain
gangs in the State. Supervisor Scale
says that so sweeping a charge cannot
be substantiated, for not all the coun-
ty chaingangs are so inhumanely con-
Quoted as charged. Insofar as Sum-
ter county is concerned he asserts
most positively that the charge is not
true. The convicts doing time on the
Sumter county changing are we'll
clad, we'll fed and receive proper care
and attention. They are not over
worked and they do not leave the
gang physical wrecks as e. result of
.overwork. and cruel treatment. In
addition to the county convicts this
county has hired convicts from the
penitentiary, and the chaingang has
been inspected at regular intervals by
representatives Of the penitentiary,
and so far as Supervisor Scale has
been informed no charge has been
made that the convicts OH the Sum-
ter county changing have been cru
ely treated or Improperly cared for
On the contrary, the State convicts
have expressed a preference to re-
naming on the changing rather than
return to the penitentiary when offer
ed an opportunity. of doing so.
Supervisor Scale says he has made
every possible effort to conduct the
chaingang properly and to make the
lot of the convicts as endurable as
possible, while exacting full work Of
them, and he does not feel that the
penitentiary official quoted was war
ranted in punching all the chain
gangs together in his damaging
charge.
