FLORENCE MAN ENTERS 4 POSI-
 TIVE DENIAL,
Says He Is n Friend Of Congressman Richardson And Hopes That There Will Not Be OppO-
 position To Him.

Florence, Jan. 3.--(SpeciaL )--When asked this morning to confirm or deny the statement sent out from Decatur that he was favorably considering en- tering the race for the Democratic nomination for Congress from this dis trict, to oppose Hon. William Richard son, Hon. Emmet O'Neai entered a most emphatic denial of any such in- tention and declared that the subject had never been. preached to him.
 > 'I desire to say with all possible emphasis" said Mir. O'Neal, that the use of my name in this connection has never been authorized by me. The correspondent at Decatur who uses my name in connection with the nomina- ton to Congress as possible oppon- ent to Judge Richardson has been nlis- informed. No one has sought to ih- duce me to make the race and 1t is hardly possible that I could have con sidered the matter favorably, when in fact have never considered it at all
 "I would not give any notice to this rumor if its circulation did not tend to create the impression that opposi- tion exists in4 this district to the re- nomination of Judge Richardson. Judge Richardson has rendered valuable ser vices to his district and indeed to the entire State and I think it will bf generally conceded that at no period of his career has he had stronger hold upon the confidence and affection Of the people of his district.

Entry Of Mobile Means Great
 SaUing in Mileage in Southern

same as last year, but the difference in the jump of an Eastern team to Shreveport and the jump of that same team to Mobile can readily be appre- ciated This summer there will not be that old stcreotyped story that was sent out whenever an Eastern team started to Shreveport last summer: Game postponed on account of the Montgomery team failing to arrive in timc."
 1t will be easy enough this summer for any team in the Eastern division to get to Mobile, or vice-versa, and, on the whole, Mobiles coming into the circuit means the salvation of the Southern League, even if nothing but the mileage is considered. Never was visiting team known to get over the guarantee in Shreveport and as the guarantee money does not begin to pay the expenses of ball team on the road, 1t can be seen how much money was lost to the different clubs of the league by Shreveport. Last year. Mo- bile was far and away the backbone of the Cotton States League in draw team was in Mobile. It stands to req
 son that with such team as Tom Fisher will give them down there this summer, there will be better attend ance in Mobile this sumer than there was last. The Southern League will
 save money on travelling expenses
 whether Mobile draws over the guar antee at home or not and the chances
 are that Mobile will be one of the best drawing towns in the league. Including himself, Fisher already has eleven pitchers for the coming season. eight infelders, one of them, Hart. being one of the best men in the Western League. and a man that Ryan tried to get and failed, and five out felders, twenty-five men. Molly, Mo Cay and Thornton were sold" to Ky ans team, but they will all be in Mobile, if Red wants them.
 Following Is Fishers team so far: 1 Pitchers: Hickma n. Becker, Torrey, Nell son. Ray, Lively. Bryant, Molly. Brun- ner and Griggs; catchers: Rapp, Graf
 fus. Massing and O'Brien; first base: | Hart and Kemmer; second base: Lewee, | Noblett and McCay; shortstop: Benson
 and Breyette; third base: Hoffman:

Supposed It's Provisions as to Police
 men WilI He Ignored.
 According to a number of inquiries received at tho executive offices of the State Capitol many persons are of the belief that the law regulating the car ryfng of concealed weapons became ef- feetive on January 1. Such is not the case, the law becoming effective July i, 1908.
 Several newspapers have mentioned this law as one of those which became effective on January 1. and perhaps this Is; responsible for the misunderstand- ing The law is designed to give deal CTS ample opportunity to dispose of the small arms that they now carry in stock. as this would be impossible un- der the provisions of the bill.
 The question has been raised as to whether this law will apply to police men. It Is hardly probable that this question will be raised, as all of the policemen of Alabama are now carry ing. concealed weapons in violation of the law and nothing has been said about it, and the matter>is never the basis of a case against any of the po- lice officers of the State.

Montgomery baseball fans are heart lily glad that the Mobile Shreveport matter Is finally settled and that the Gulf City will be a member of the 1908 Southern League.
 There are now three Alabama cities in the league: Mobile, Montgomery and Birmingham, and the friendly rivalry during the coming season is going to be big thing for the gate receipts not only of the cities in question. but for the eight towns of the league.
 The Southern is now one of the most compact organizations in the world. Of the eight towns, five of them are on a straight line. all five of them being road and all of them short jumps. Mobile is only Al miles from New Or leans, Montgomery 1SO miles from Mo bile. Birmingham ninety-six miles miles from Birmingham. Atlanta is only 250 miles from Mobile. The mile age from Atlanta to Birmingham. Birmingham to Memphis and Little League teams had last year, but hun dreds of dollars will be saved to both the Eastern and Western clubs by the elimination of Shreveport.
 For the last five years. it has been a fact that every time the Eastern clubs started on Western trip, the Eastern team that was scheduled in Shreveport would, by reason of the terrible rail. road jump, get into the Louisiana town too late for the game scheduled for that day. It was the same thing when the Western clubs started on their Eastern trip. If the Shreveport team was scheduled in one of the Eastern towns, 1t invariably missed the game on that day by reason of the return railroad jump.
 All this will be a thing of the past with the schedule for the coming sea son. Mobile being one of the Western NnS of ChrnUannTf ba lem will be solved. The only long jumps of the Eastern teams going West now will be the 624 mile jump from Nashville to New Orleans. which will not happen often. A AT milo jump from Birmingham to New Or leans. 496 mile jump from Atlanta to New Orleans, and a 321 mile jump from Montgomery to New Orleans.

GET NEW LICENSES
2 COMMISSIONER WRITES
 COUNTY WARDENs.
He Tells Them ts See that All Hunt CTS Get Licensea for the
 New Year.

State Game and Fish Commissioner John H. Wallace. Jr.. has Issued in- structions to county game wardens of the State to the effect that many will attempt to hunt daring this month who have not secured license for the year 1908.
 He has impressed upon the minds of the wardens that this violation of the law will not be tolerated by the de- partment of game and fish. He cites the fact that the true sportsmen of the State are gladly purchasing hunters license so greatly interested are they In the work of the department in pro- tecting game of the State. and he in- sists that all others who hunt must do likewise.
 The attention of the wardens is also called to the fact that 1t is unla wful for anyone to carry game on any com mon carrier in this State without first having a hunters license duly issued h.nf. He has directed the wardens to enforce the law to the very letter; for only by this course. he insists. can the conduct of public officer be endorsed and upheld by the people he serves. In discussing the work of the De- partment of Game and Fish during the last calendar year. Mir. Wallace said:N
 ''To say that the game and fish laws of the State are a success from the standpoint of protecting and preserving the valuable assets of the fields, for ests and streams of this State is put ting the great good these statutes have achieved mildly. In former days 1t was the custom of the thriftless. worth less class to begin hunting in Septem- Der and by the time sportsmen of af- fairs got ready for autumn recreation, the fields and forests had been practi- l cally depleted of everything that wore fur or feather. In order to preserve what game we have for ourselves to say nothing of generations yet to be, 1t is tmDeratively necessary to throw | around the Tight to hunt every possi- ble restriction. For man is wont to pursue wild things with a vengeance of spiteful fury on the trail of a lost spirit.
 "The valuable insectivorous birds are given equal protection with the game birds. We are told by the Governmen $S00,O00.000 annually is lost by the ravages of injurious insects; and wh en It is considered that birds are the great est destroyers of these pests, we are lost in wonder at the apathy of the public in realizing the imperative i'm. portance of protecting these vaiuab ble allies to man.
 The Department of Game and Fish Is backed up by constabulary approx mating 1000 men. who are charged with the active enforcement of the laws relating to game and fish protection, and in the future as in the past these statutes will be enforced"
