ED BY IMMIGRATION.

Rome, Jan. 26.-In the chamber
Of deputies today Signor Valeri call
ed attention to the vast tracts of
land in southern Italy, which were
becoming desolated owing to the
want OF cultivation. This he ascribed
20 the enormous immigration of the
peasants every year to North and
south America. He quoted figures
TO show that from the southern
provinces the number of immigrants
averaged $4,000 i'm the years 1894
1896, while last year no less than
$4,000 left the provinces. Those
who remained he said, were dispirit-

inducements to keep the population
It home, otherwise the safety of
Italy would be seriously threatened.

TARIFF REVISION is
COMING TO THE FRONT

Chicago, Jan. GA special to the
Record-He from Washington,
says:
A new effort was started yesterday
to bring about a caucus of the re-
publican members of the house to
consider the propriety of an extra
session of the new congress to deal
with the question of tariff revision.
Representatives Cooper of Wisconsin
and Steenerson of Minnesota have
been circulating petitions for the
caucus and disclosed a strong tariff
revision sentiment from the middle
west. The signatures of only fifty re-
publican congressman are necessary
to call a caucus. but such progress
has been made that revisionists have
taken a squirt of real enthusiasm. The
stand patters will fight and declare
they can defeat the revisionists I'm the
caucus if a caucus shall be called.

 Many of the cars have already been equipped with lenders and it is ex- pected that by January all the roli- ing stock will be within the require- ments of the law
 Another feature of the ordinsnce to be complied with on January 1 is the assumption of duties by Tom Doron. appointed Car Inspector. Mir. Doron. recently employed by the Montgomery Light and Power Company, and many years ago an employe of the Montgom- cry Traction Company Is regarded as a particularly apt man for the position to which he has been appointed. and 1t Is expected that his services will greatly assist both the city and the Traction Company in affording good street ear service to the people.

 Get It..

Decatur, Dec. Special, 1.-The indications are that there will be some thing doing in Democratic political circles in this Congressional district before many more weeks. There now seems to ,be but little doubt that Judge William Richardson of Huntsville will have strong opposition for nomination to Congress in this district
 Judge Richardson filled out the un- expired term of Gen. Joe Wheeler. and was elected for another term.
 1t Is understood from a reliable source that certain influential Demo- orats of the district have brought pressure to bear to induce Hon. Emmet ONeal, of Florence. to make the race for the Democratic nomination for Con- gress and 1t is also understood that Mir. O'Neai is considering the matter favoEably. His most ardent friends In this portion of the district are of the opiuion that he will announce.
 Mir. O'Neal is a prominent lawyer of Florence and one of the best known men in Alabama. As a lawyer he ranks at tn ehead of his profession in North Alabama. He Is a son of Ed ward Asbury O'Neal. who served the State as Governor from 1882 to 1886. He was one of the mostipopular Gov ernors Alabama has ever had.
 There is also rumor that Hon. Arr chibald H. Carmichael of Tuscumbia has the Congressional bee in his bon net. But 1t is hardly likely that both he and Mir. o'Neal will make the race against Judge Richardson.

The entire "blanket ordinance" of the Council to regulate the traffic of street cars in Montgomery becomes ef- fective January l. The section about lenders which is the most interesting feature, will claim the attention Of the Montgomery Traction Company as we'll as of the people.
 The blanket ordinance was adopted in September and became effective on December 1. but by resolution of the Council the sections regulating lenders and air brakes were suspended until January 1. The ordinance originally required that all street cars operated in Montgomery should be equipped with air brakes but 1t was shown that the single truck ears could. not expediently carry them and 1t is not probable that the company will he compelled to in- stall them on the smaller rolling stock. The air brakes were placed on the dou- ble truck cars many months ago.
