The Clouds viii Roll By.

And still the sun is shining.
And still IS, 100000 people are
being clothed and fed and are
doing their accustomed work.
Still the tramp of a mighty army
of a million workers is annually
pouring into our country, and
hundreds of thousands from 9TH
er sections of:the United States
are annually turning their foot
steps toward the great South
west, and many into the Central
South. The world moves. HUI
man activities know no let-up.
The farmers of the country will
this year receive 100000, 900
for their products, or about nine
times the total national banking
capital of the United States; al
most one-half as much as the to-
tai investment in all the railroads
of the country. Never before in
the history of America were the
agricultural conditions of the
country so sound and solid; never
before were the farmers of the
South and the West alike so near
ly out of debt, and with a total
value of farm products to their
credit so staggering in amount
as to be almost beyond compre-
hension. Contrast the $7,000,-
900, 900 which will this year be
paid to American farmers with
the total for proceeding years.
In 1890 the total value of farm
products was 50, 466, 0O0, 900, or
but a little more than one third
of the value this year. Even
seven years ago, or in 1900, the
totalwas&,7l7, 900. 900 while this
year the aggregate of 81, 900, 00O.-
900 shows a gain of $1,000, 0OO,.
900 as compared with 1900, and
is almost as great as the total
value of farm products in 1890.
How can a country materially
suffer in its business interest
with such a solid foundation for
marvellous prosperity and busi-
ness expansion? New York is at
present the storm-center of a
bad financial condition, due in
part to the rottenness of the
methods of some financial opera
tors in that great world center,
in part to destruction of conf
dence by ceaseless agitation
and legislation against railroads
and other corporations. 1t is
true that the depreciation in Sc
curities has been enormous. 1t
is true that thousands have lost
their all by having to sacrifice Sc
curities. But these conditions
do not, by any means, change
the fundamental soundness of
American business conditions.
The man who has been forced by
this financial storm to sacrifice
his securities for far less than
their intrinsic value has trans
ferred to the purchaser a proper
ty which, when the storm is over
must inevitably advance commen-
surate with the mavelous natural
resources and development of
the country. Take the conditions
of 1893, with our disorganized
currency system. with the world
uncertain as to the future of our
monetary standard, with the sill
silver issue in the balance, and
no man able to predict the out
come, and contrast that situation
to day, and we can see some
thing of the difference-a differ

All the holdings of the conecuh Pine and Lumber manufacturing Company in Mont gomery sold at auction to Michael Cody at noon yesterday for S31,0OO The sale of the property of the bankrupt com pany was conducted Court Square by NJ. W. Stuart under the direction of the Fed eral Court.
 The property consists of large lumber plant in North Montgomery. including It's machinery and equipment. alo a quantity of material. and three acres of ground on which the plant is located.
 Judge Jones will probably take action to- day on petition for confirmation of the sale.
 Since the lumber company went into the hands of a receiver several weeks ago, the North Montgomery plant has been kept in operation. It employed a. large force of hands and was one of Montgomery's growing enterprises.
 Michael Cody, President of the Exchange National Bank. said yesterday that his plans for the future of the manufacturing Rg plant had not yet matured He gave as- surances, though that the plant would bs continued in operation. As soon as the sale has been ratified by the court. 1t Is believ- ed that definite plans will be outlined for the enterprise.

 Naftel. July 27.
 Before the recent rains it was risk ing one's life to attempt to labor in the field between the hours of II a. m. and D. m.
 Corn and cotton began to wither un- der the powerful heat of the sun be- fore the rain. showing that moisture was needed for the wellbeing of all the farm products raised in Beat Is, Montgomery County.
 The best judges here say there is no chance for a full crop of cotton to be made. July 27th is here and there are only now and then a field of cotton with any considerable number of any thing like grown bolls on the stalks
 As a rule the majority of the cotton here Is small and growing so fast. that 1t does not take time to fruit. I'll venture there will not be a bale of ma ture cotton in the whole beat the 1st day of August. 1907. If the plants grow vigorously through August and put on fruit in the meantime, a half crop may be made, otherwise no one can forecast the result.
 Hon. P. B. Mastin has covered him. self with glory by having the courage to do what our legislators have been afraid to do for more than eighty eight years. Let's raise eggs and sheep in lieu of lot of worthless canines If a legislator refuses to vote for the dog tax it will be because he is afraid to do right. Such lack a moral back bone, and ought never to have been sent to the lawmaking department.
 As paradoxical as 1t is. our people are living in a strictly prohibition dis trict, yet our express offices on our railroads are indirectly retailing spir- ituous liquors which debauch and dis grace some of the best young men we have in all the land.

within ten miles of St. Petersburg, petard which had been placed on the rail exploded. The force of the explos- ion, however. was not great enough to derail the train and no one was hurt.
 A short distance outside of Peters burg on April 10. last, an attempt was made on the life of Grand Duke Nicho- las and Peter who were returning from Tsarskoe-Selo. A fusilade of shots stopped the train. No one was injured. Another attempt on the life of Grand Duke Nicholas was made on February 27. when a workman was found preparing an internal machine to blow up the train on which the grand duke was travelling.

 That was certainly great victory. We had a hard fight. but we have won out and every member of the Birming- ham delegation Is happy tonight.
