The Pacific States Telephone
company, despite its indifference,
evidently desires To obtain a fran,
chise in 81 Johns. \ new ordi-
nance granting the franchise is now
IN the hands OF the council. Tn
doubtedly it will be thoroughly an
alyled by the city fathers. Under
its terms the city will receive " 100
from the company ior the franchise
Tor period OF 2I years. This Is At
the rate of SS4 so a year oI S7.oS a
month. There is also a clause in
the franchise providing against a H.
cense being charged, To the av-
erage taxpayer this looks trille
strong. Portland charges a license
OF SIS month and $1,000 a
quarter OF $4,000 a year for the
phones. II will be well for ST
Johns To see that II receives ade-
quate compensation for this valua-
BILE concession, AT present it is the
property OF the citizens OF 81. Johns.
II should not be disposed OF at less
than value received. II should not
be placed on the bargain counter.

DEPOSIT OF RED OXIDE OF IRON.
Jackson County VIII Soon Furnisl
 Paint for the COuntry.

E-Hant AOE NHC 0OuutEys
 Scottsboro, May 1S.-(Special.)-- There Is now every indication that Jackson county will soon lead the en- tire country as a paint producer.
 During the last few weeks H. T.. Lee of Findlay. Ohio, and R. Scott Parks and Captain John R. Harris of Scottsboro have located what is be- lieved to be the largest end purest deposit of Red Oxide of Iron at Belle fonte, Ala, in this county.
 It could with proprietv be named "The Worlds Mother Lode of Paint Material" As extensive and desirable as is the American Tri-Metallic Paint Company's deposit, 1t is but a mole hill compared to the recent find at Bellefonte, and the analysis shows the material to be much purer and supe- rior in every respect.
 H. T. Lee and his associates have secured leases on hundreds of acres of the deposit and in the near future they will be able to furnish paint. enough to paint the United States red and give 1t three coats.
 MT. Lee and his associates are going to erect a splendid paint factory on the deposit at Bellefonte along the line of the Memphis division of the Southern Railway.
 Walter Thomas Starlrey and Miss Annie Inglis. two popular young per sons of this place. were married at the home of the brides parents. MT. and Mrs. Sam 1nglis. Thursday Esquire Shipp performed the ceremony.

His early life and his young manhood except for the time he spent as a Confederate soldier, was spent as an officer of a steamboat on the Alabama river. As long as steam boating was an important factor in the commercial life of Alabama. Cap tain Foster was connected with it. Ot late years he has been a merchant and newspaper editor in Camden. Perhaps the best history and the clearest view of the old picturesque days when steam boating was in its prime is contained in a series of sketches written by Cap tain Foster.
 In the war between the States he was Captain of a company in the 3rd Alabama. He is man of learning and polish and has altogether a winning and attractive personality.
 The contest for the vacancy caused by the death of Probate Judge J. T. Beck has awakened interest all over Southwest Alabama.
