'TheSOuth'S s Greatest Specialists ,

The Birmingham Ledger: There are no better known specialists in the South than Drs. Orion T. and Byron Dozier, of the firm of Drs. Dozier & Dozier of this city Certainly there are none more capable and skillful than they.
 These gentlemen are, morally and professionally, honest In all their deal ings with their clients. They seek to relieve and to cure their patients, rather than to follow old hobbies and theories which have been exploited long since.
 While they give ample reason to convince the most biased and preju- diced minds, and offer free consulta- ton and examination, yet they have never been known to resort to such "catch-penny methods" as advertising mot a cent need be paid till cured, free treatment" etc., so often resorted to by interruptions and incompetent practitioners.
 Their success is remarkable and be- speaks for them the confidence of the people.
 The Birmingham News: Both Dr. o. T. Dozier and Dr. Byron Dozier are re- liable and exper. snced physicians and surgeons, who deserve the great suc- cess which has been and is theirs.
 Age-Herald: Drs Dozier & Doziers long standing record and approved abilities entitle them to the proud dis tinction of standing at the head of their profession.
 The Southern Odd Fellow: We can not add anything to the reputation Drs. Dozier & Dozier have already acquired in the line of their profession, but we know them to be Brother Odd Fellows and can be relied upon to carry out every promise they make to those needing their services.
 The Bessemer Weekly: There are no physicians in Alabama, if in the South, as well known as the Drs. Dozier- Orion T. and Byron-of Birmingham. We doubt if there are as skilled and capable physicians in the state as they are, and We know that there are none other as successful.
 Dr. O. T. Dozier is not only an emi- nent and most skillful and successful physician, thoroughly grounded in the knowledge or his profession; he is not only one of the foremost and most sagacious and public-spirited citizens of the Magic City. but he is one of the most accomplished and highest genius endowed literateurs of the country, his published works comparing with the best.
 Dr. Byron Dozier, though young in years, inherits the talents. the applica tion and comprehension of his father, strengthened and intensified by broad, most liberal and thorough edu- cation, and rare experience in educa- tional practice in some of the foremost hospitals, under the knowledge of some of the most eminent physicians and surgeons of the country.
 If the reader is ailing or afflicted no time should be lost in consulting the Drs. Dozier. In a matter affecting the health, perhaps ones life, the best are the safest and should always be sought if available.
 Anniston Hot Blast: Among the most noted and successful specialists in the country are Drs. Dozier & Do

About thirty years ago Her nando De Soto Money was elected to Congress from Mississippi, and he got an appropriation of $10000 to improve a little creek, a tributary of the Tombigbee. Men laughed and swore they could jump across it. The $10.000 was expended and Money got another and another When $S0000 had been expended a boat made three trips up the creek and took out 500 bales of cotton each trip. The rail- road reduced its rates on cotton from B a bale to S1. That county produced 25,000 bales of cotton a year. Thus that com munity has saved about S00,000 per an- mum, and that began twentytwo years ago-all for $30o00.
 I would think that a constituency that has member on rivers and harbors would hesitate long before it took his seat from him, especially a constituency of a state that Is full of rivers; but Ken lucky last year retired MT. Kehoe. a member of the rivers and harbors com mittee, and some years ago she retired Judge Berry. who had been on the com- mittee for years. and had got for Ken lucky waters many hundreds of thou sands of dollars. The state has no rep resentative on the committee this Con- gross, and that notwithstanding Ken lucky has more navigable rivers than any other state. when we consider the area of the state.
 MT. Bankhead is on these two commit tees because of his long service. The Tombigbee river runs through his dis trict, and the Improvements made upon 1t and its tributaries have put millions Into the pockets of Alabama planters. North Alabama Is going to be the great Iron and steel producing section of the union ere the century is half over; but before that transpires the rivers and harbors of Alabama will have to receive the aid that has been given to the rivers of West Pennsylvania and West Vir- gana. It is fortunate for Alabama that she has a member on the committee on rivers and harbors.
 It is not often that I speak of the tenn perament of a subject; but I will say that MT. Bankhead's chief drawback is a modesty that shrinks from public ex- ploit. But he can speak when it has to be done, and I have heard him make two
