No Political Part.

well known official of one of the big
railroad systems said today that so far
as he is informed the transportation lines
are going to keep hands off in the fight
for political honors next year and run
railroads, which is their business. He
said that the railroads were the bone,
and the whole thing seemed to be fight
ing for 1t, and he did not see how they
were going to be benefited In any sense.
1t has been known for some time That
the railroads did not consider any man
so far announced for governor in other
than an attitude of harm to their inter-
ests Conner is known to be for regular
ton and reduction and Cunningham has
shown the same disposition. Therefore ii
has occurred to them that there Is nothing
but trouble for them no matter who of
the present possibilities make the fight.

Col. Harvey Jones, state tax commits
sloner, came up from his home In Mobile
today and will be in his office for a while.
He says that the increases In tax returns
to the state and county this year will
be very gratifying to all the officials
He is at work on a report of the work
of the tax year, which will be handed
to the governor in about ten days.
Colonel Jones says that the business of
Mobile is phenomenal and the city is
more prosperous than at any time In its
history The only trouble Is the scarcity
of labor which is commanding IS cents

not the only thing doing well, but all

Capt. Robert l.. Gregory, who may be
regarded as one of the veterans, has re-
signed as captain Of Company G, Third
infantry, Alabama National Guard Bir-
mngham, and will devote all his time to
business. Captain Gregory has been sent
to some very dangerous as we'll as dis
agreeable duty by the governor and made
fine record, especially on his trip to
Decatur to convey" three negro MUIR
dcrers.
Speaking of the resignation today Adj
tutant General William W. Brandon said;
The service is loath to give up this
good officer. As commander in Biz
mingham, where the efficiency is very
high and the duties frequent and oner-
Gus, he has shown ability, patriotism and
courage. 1t is a distinct loss to the
Guard, but we re~.gnze that this very
kind of devotion to dt>ty deserves re-
cognition in whatever reasonable request
Is made

Solicitor c. r. Bricken will have a long
run of sensational murder trials to take
care of in the second circuit for the next
few weeks, opening with the first at Lu-
verne next Monday, that of e. Q. Bishop,
Charged with the killing of Gordon kud-
dock of that place some weeks ago.
After that he will have the trial of j.
F. Hancock, for the murder of Professor
Trottman at Brewton the investigation
of the Rabb assault charges at Ever
green, the case of j. f. Thompson for
the killing of his wife and father-in-law
at the same place, and the trial of Stall
ngs at Greenville for the shooting of his
brother-in-law some time ago
So far as can be learned the sentiment
in Luverne is divided as to the punish-
ment of Bishop. who acted as a result of
domestic troubles, and it is understood
that If he is indicted he will be vigorous
y prosecuted. 1t seems that the feeling
is very intense against Hancock and
Thompson, with somewhat of Indifference
in the case of Stallings.

THE MAN FROM MEXICO"
Co<rfne to Bisbee Under the Manage
 ment of George Samueis.

One of the most promising theatri- cal events of the season is announced for the nights of Oct. 29 and 30th. at the Bisbee Opera House, when the or ganization known as "the George SaR- uels Attractions" will make its first appearance in this city.
 As previously announced, this visit will be followed later with a return visit, when an entirely new program will be presented. Since the policy Of Mr. Samuels was first heralded in these columns, considerable interest and expectation has been aroused among the many theater goers and amusement-se of this city. Un- less all signs fail, of which there is small possibility, we are to be recipi- ents of a very meritorious and en- Joyable dramatic treat in this visit of Mir. Samuels and his excellent coterie of dramatic and vaudeville artists.
 The company has it's own sixty-foot baggage car, which is used solely for the purpose of transporting the spe- cially constructed scenery and para phernalia used in the two big produc- tions that are to be produced during this engagement. This scenery, etc, e is peculiarly adapted for use upon the stage of the theaters in this as well as the other cities in this terri tory, inasmuch as it has been made with that special purpose in view. The result viii be that each scene and act will be presented exactly the same in every particular as if given upon a large metropolitan stage.
 The first night of the engagement will witness the production of one of the best melodramas ever seen in this or any other part of the country. It is entitled "A Deserted Bride" and from start to finish Is replete with sensational, comedy and scenic feat. uIes that are far beyond the average usually included in plays of this class.
 On the second night of the engage ment the very laughable and natural comedy. "The Man From Mexico" will te the tfh
 Clever vaudeville features win be Introduced during the progress of each of these plays.
