CUNNINGHAM IS GAINING
 GROUND IN THE NORTH

believe Mir. Conner is a dangerous man. believe that his election would be defriment to the State on account of bis war against the railroads. think there are some things in refer ence to railroad rates in Alabama that Conner Is too severe on the railroads Just now we are enjoying great indus
 trial prosperity in Alabama Money is looking for investment here every day. but do you think people are go- ing to invest money in railroads in
 Alabama. or for that matter in any thing else, when men talk like MT. Conner does against the railroads?
 Railroads are great developers. We have here in Alabama lots of country yet to be developed and we need the railroads. We should encourage rail- roads to come rather than drivc them
 out, and they are not coming until given fair deal by our courts and by our laws. I am not railroad man nor do own stock Tn any railroad and therefore am not directly interested in
 railroads. but I am largely interested in the development of Alabama. or course believe that the peoples
 rights should be protected and that
 the railroads should be required to give equal and just rates to all alike. and I think that Dr. Cunningham is
 the man 70 do all within his power, if elected governor, to see to 1t that not only the people are treated fairly
 but that the railroads of the State
 get fair deal also
 Mir. Conner failed to carry Law renee County when he ran for president of the State railroad com
 mission. From what I could learn Dr.
 Cunningham will carry that county by a larger vote than that by which Tr ERatf r<or fo6 hA anT " in
 memorable race three years ago In
 that race friends of MT. Conner said that the reason he did not carry Law renee County was because he could not get the poll list and for this reason could not send out his literature 1 his facts and figures ito the voters i of the county. Others say the cause I he did not carry the county was be- cause the people were against him. 1 A farmer of Lawrence County said: All this talk Mir. Conner is making
 about railroad rates to the farmers doesn't amount to a hill of beans. It is only political gush for the purpose
 Of catching the rural vote. How much
 is the average Alabama farmer. or any other farmer for that matter, affected by the rates made by rail-
 roads? Stop and think a minute; how
 much shipping per year does the av- craze farmer do? Very little. The
 farmers are getting on to MT. Conner
 and his freight racket and he can't
 fool them any more in my section of
 the country"
 | The same condition of affaris that exists In Madison. Limestone. Law | renee and Cullman counties exists to great extent in Morgan County. That Dr., Cunningham is gaining votes l in this portion of the State goes with out the saying, although this has all ways been regarded as a strong Co., mer section. When one comes to think i of the matter it seems quite remarkable
 that pr. Cunningham should gain strength here with but little or no effort This is matter worthy of thought. It goes to show the kind of man pr. Cunningham is and the peo-
 ple too. are finding It out without
 him telling them.

TAXES OF EscAMBIA.
No Raises Made, But Increase Over
 Last Year is $3Oo,0O0.

Last Year is $300,0O0.
 Brewton, July 22.--(Special. )--At the meeting of the County Commissioners for the purpose of examining the book or assessments as made and submitted to them by Tax Assessor Mcclellan the lists as rendered by the tax payers were carefully compared with the book and not single error was found. No raises in valuations were made, but there were several abatements. The natural increase over 1905 amounts in round numbers to s300,000. This in crease was voluntary on the part of those listing their property. The value of exempt property in the County is $177,462. The total value of real and personal property for 1908 Is s4,691,246. Of this the realty amounts to S2,426,210 and personal sa,265.036. The rate of taxation is the same as for 1905, S1.4o on the $f00. This includes both State and County levies for taxes.
 Machinery for a steam laundry for Brewton has been ordered and will be shipped from Chicago in a few days. Robert and John Bell arc at the head of the enterprise. The site selected for the laundry is the new building opposite Mcaowin's stables on East Mildred Street.
 .The blind tigers must go" Is the edict of the town authorities. Several arrests have been made and there are warrants out for many more vioiators of the prohibition law. A detective has been quietly at work for several weeks, and the town seems to be full of the tigers. Several defendants have been up before the Mayor and pleaded guilty, and were promptly fined $50 and costs.
 Alabama Lodge No. 63, Knights of Pythias, have elected the following cf- flcers for the ensuing term: John Pu- rifoy. Jr., c. C.; H. c. Rankin, V. C.; J. T. Boyd, P; M F. Brooks, M. of w; F. s.

Conner No Longer Favor
 ite of the Voters.
Farmers and Business Men Look On His Speeches As tpoIfticaI Gush --Cunningham's Speech in
 CuIIman Made Him
 Friends.
ny W. w. Nelson.

Decatur. July 22. - (Spcciai) = Friends of Lieutenant Governor R. M. Cunningham in this portion of the State say that a wonderful change of sentiment in favor of the Ensley doctor has taken place within the past few weeks.
 few days ago your correspondent renee Counties and many persons there told him that the tide was turning in favor of Dr. Cunningham for govern or. I have also been reliably informed that quite a change in favor of Dr. Cunningham has taken place in Gull man County since the Fourth of July speech delivered by him. The turn of the tide against Candidate B. B. Cc- mer, so the people tell me, is due to the fact that the voters have had time to look into the matter and to see just what is the position occupied by the two candidates.
 Dr. Cunningham's Cullman speech was the first delivered by him in this imemdiate section of the State, and Cullman people say that if he were to go all over this portion of the State and deliver speeches like the one he delivered in CuIiman County his nomf- nation would be assured. Said eiti- zen of Cullman: "Dr. Cunningham impresses one as being an honest man man that means Just what he says. He is great orator and thinker and the very man we need for Governor of Alabama."
 A prominent planter of Limestone County said to me: "A month ago was for Conner, but today I am for Cunningham and there are many more In my neighborhood who have changed their opinion within the past felw weeks by studying the matter and from reading the speeches of the two candidates in the daily papers. Co- mer will not get near as large vote in Limestone County as he received for president of the State railroad com mission and the indications are now that Dr. Cunningham will carry the county by large majority. The peo- pie in my section are losing confidence in Conner and many of them regard his promises as mere political pledges made with the hopes of riding into office"
 This is only an example of the many expressions heard in this portion of the State within the past few days There are many others who declared they have changed their opinion to Dr. Cunningham.
 I talked to prominent business man of Madison County concerning tbe gubernatorial race. Among other things he said:
 T stand for Dr. Cunningham as the next governor of Alabama because l

In too Much of a Hurry. A i

An Illinois parson believes in the efficacy of speed rather than prayer. He advocates the madness of 1t and says the world doesn't go half fast enough for him and that too many preachers think they are still in the middle ages, while the fact is Provi- dence has sent the means of doing fathers could accomplish in ten. All of which may be quite true. Yet grandfather was a much happier man and more agreeable to his fellow creatures for not being in such a hurry. With rapid living comes dis content, restlessness, that is very up- setting to unfortunates who must stick to their last and thereby accom- plish a certain amount of labor in order to live at all.
