F. Wilkinson, N. Waller w. c. Agee. w. T. Atkins and c. w. Hooper, and Mayor Atkins, the same having assembled at the suggestion of the liquor interests and the purpose being to stave off local option election until after January l. The conference agreed that they would use their influence to that end if the City Council would on Monday night agree that in the event Dallas county went dry when the election was held, that the council would make it effective October l, next by refusing to grant license longer than for that period, and the county outside of Selma being already prohibition.
 This it is understood Is satisfactory to the whisky men, and the petition will not likely be filed until December l, there by precluding an election until after Jan uary l. The plans of the prohibltlonists are to hold an election about January 10, not waiting until after February 1. when poll taxes paid before that time permits the person to vote.
 If Jefferson and Montgomery hold an election in the meantime and go dry, the whisky men in Selma will hardly make a fight. If these cities vote wet then the fight will be bitter one here, with the result in doubt

when asked regarding this prescrip- tion, stated that the ingredients are all harmless, and can be ob- tained at small cost from any good prescription pharmacy. He further stated that while this pre- scription is often prescribed in rheumatic afflictions with splendid results, he could see no reason why it would not be a splendid remedy for kidney and urinary troubles and backache, as it has a peculiar action upon the entire kid ney structure, cleansing these most important organs and helping them to sift and filter from the blood the foul acids and waste matter which cause sickness and suffering. Those who suffer can make no mis- take in giving it trial.

 The matter of what effect the recent voting in of prohibition in this county
 will have on the city's welfare, continues
 to be the all absorbing topic of conver-
 sation. The proposed increase in the tax
 rate, which will make it one per cent, an increase of one hundred per cent, is coming in for quite a good deal of crit icism. In today's Age-Herald this ap- peared, through an error, to have been
 ten per cent; it should have been one
 per cent, as above stated.
 It was realized by a great many before this election that some means would have to be devised to meet the deficit that
 would occur in the treasury in case of the
 abolishment of the dispensary. However, since the excitement of the race is over and the aftermath Is approaching, all are beginning to realize that some increased burden has to be borne by the citizens. The work of laying sidewalks on num- Der of the city streets is already well
 under headway and this of course, will
 not be stopped. It is also expected that Greensboro avenue will be finished up in slag and chert material as far as Seventh
 street; so that if nothing is done for
 some little time the town will still be
 in a presentable condition.
 News has been learned here of the kill ing of the little daughter of Kirby Glenn
 ents by railroad train on the Alabama Great Southern on last Tuesday evening.
 The little girl had wandered a short ways from home and got on the railroad
 track, whee a through freight came by,
 the engineer not seeing her in time to stop the train, and struck the child, killing her instantly. The bereaved pa
 rents have the sympathy of large num-
 Der of friends.
