Valadon the mysterious illusionist, will

cleverest illusions and concentrated

 Selma, Oct. 1S-(SpeciaI. )-Messrs. M. V. Richards and Henderson. of the Land and Industrial Department of the Southern Railway. have notified Secre- tary J. A. Maryman. of the Commercial and Industrial Association that they will be in Selma on Tuesday, octo- Der 27.
 These officials of the Southern Rail- way are visiting the South in the in- terest of the farming interests of this section and which is on the line of that great system.
 On the night that Mir Richards and Henderson are in Selma, there will be held a meeting of the Commercial and Industrial Association. and these offi- eials of the Southern Railway will make an address to the members. The subject of their address will be upon diversified farming and they will en- deavor to arouse the interest of the members of the Commercial and Indus trial Association in diversified farm ing in this section and the visit of the officials of the Land and Industrial De- pertinent of the Southern will no doubt awaken new interest in such farming. With the interest in diversified farm ing the association is trying to get thrifty white farmers from the North and West. and in getting. these farmers to come South the railroad officials are also helping and 1t is expected that quite a number of these immigrants will be brought to Dallas County du- ring the next year.

NEW MUNICIPAL CODE
 COSTLY TO FLORENCE

Florence. Oct. 1s.(special. )That the new municipal code which was adopt ed for the Government of the city of Florence, has not been altogether a blessing will be shown by the report of Mayor A. E. Walker which will be submitted to the City Council Monday evening.
 Under this code. the expenses of the city have been largely increased with out a corresponding increase VI the revenues, about $3,000 annually being attributable to the new code, of the $5,s00 annual increase in expenses. This Is largely due to the increase in salaries, the number of Aldermen being doubled. the offices of City At. torney and City Engineer created and other salaries increased.
 The tax rate for Florence is extreme ly low. 50 cents on the $100. and with rigid economy the revenues cannot be stretched to meet the expenses. Since the last financial report on peeenpeT 1, ls06, the floating debt has iHeFsased about $5,000. During the past ten months there has been an increase oR 5000 in taxes. fines and special h- censes.
