Alabama RrenauN Prospects Are En-
 eouraging This Year.
 Eufaula, August -(speciall-Mrs M. B. wharton and daughter. Mrs. Hat tie Moore, have gone to Atlanta where in future they will reside. Mrs. Hhar- ton, however, will be a frequent visi- tor to the city having formed a great attachment for the citizens all of whom are greatly devoted to her. It is hardly probable that the Baotist denomination here will call a pastor until after the completion of the rew edifice which is now only awaiting .he pews and the installment of he large pipe organ. The lecture room which occupies the lower floor is being used for Sunday School and Prayer Meet ing purposes .-.
 Mir. and Mrs. N W. Roberts will leave tomorrow night for Saratoga and other points of interest in New York. They will also spend good portion of their time in Washington, D. C.. and will be absent a month or perhaps longer.
 Miss Louise Foy and her mother will leave about the 18th inst for Washing ton, D. C., where they will remain for year. Anticipating her departure, Miss Toys friends are arranging a series of pleasant social functions which will be tendered In ner nonoF during the present week
 Rev Henry T. Johnson has gone to Biloxi, Miss. where he will enjoy a justly earned vacation and some r1uch needed rest for several weeks.
 Mrs. Theodore Pruden has issued in vitations to a reception to be held at her home on Randolph Street tomor- row afternoon honoring Miss Julia Ross, of Albany. Ga

ever had better special force at hand to work for its enforcement.
 There Is pr. H. w. Wiley and his corps of chemical assistants with ex- perience of twenty years in Federal and State work, at the head of things. Capable men from the State work fields were taken into the government service and placed In charge of the work In various sections. This force of experts is at the head of the pure food enforcement. That undue haste Is not to injure the work Is proved by the methods used in the selection of inspectors--the men seh0 gre to do the actual field work of ferreting out violations of the law and obtaining evidence upon which to base prosecu- tions.
 Two civil service examinations have been held for inspectorships. Of the 2,200 applicants who took the exam nations, not 100 passed and so far only s5 have been appointed. These thirty-fve are headed by w. c. Camp bell drafted from the Kentucky food department. and Arthur Single, a young druggist from Philadelphia, as chief and assistant-c chief of the force of inspectors. Thirty-dve inspectors form but a small fraction oS the force needed for the work. In view of this fact Dr. Wiley has recommendsd a close cooperation between the State and Federal food authorities. His plan Is to arrange affairs so that vio- lations of the law discovered by State inspectors may be taken up and pros- ecuted In the Federal Courts In all cases where the product has oeen in- volved In interstate commerce. There is friction. as was inevitable, in the force which is administering the food laws. The Board of Food and Drug Inspection. appointed by the Sec retary of Agriculture. has authority to construe all cases arising under the act. This Board is composed of pr, Mccabe. Dr. Wiley believes in resoiv- sumer. The other members of the Board frequently out-vote him. and more than once have prevented taking a question to the courts in which Dr. Wiley and the other pure-food experts believed there was merit There have been charges and counter-ch harges con corning affairs in this Board, and. un- til this source of friction is removed there is considerable doubt about a general enforcement of the law. Pure food authorities of the States are a unit in supporting pr. Wiley's posi-. tion, but he has the forces of con. servatism, as well as those of the opponents of the enforcement of the law, against him

THE GREAT DIFFERENCE.

The True Democrat is reliably in
formed that at public Fletcher speak
ing at Mariana recently that some of
Broward's staunch friends and workers
(prominent men, no need to mention
names) were disgracefully boisterous
and fussy, in their jealous efforts to
discredit and interrupt Mr. Fletcher
while speaking.
Monday night in this city, Napoleon
B. Broward addressed at the court
house a fair sized audience Of men, wo-
men and children, there being many
there who differ with MIN, and will op-
pose and vote against him on general
principles, and in the BEST INTEREST of
the people of Florida but they were
quiet, decent and respectable /; and al
lowed Candidate Broward, who is Gov
ernor, and at the same time is attempt
ing to FOOL THE PEOPLE into putting
him into another high position, away
above his calibre and size, considered
from a dignifed standpoint and
his qualifications, a MOST RESPECTFUL
and QUIET HEARING. These scheming
machine politicians now even resort to
breaking up and interruptinR an oppo-
nent's meetings. That is the kind Of
peanut politics Napoleon B. Broward
and John N. C. Stockton have always
played in Duval county.

This newspaper has not now, nor has
it had at any time, any personal griev-
ance against Brownard and his machine
manipulatiOns. 1t has opposed him,
because il was right, honest and our
duty to do it, and the editor has no
apologies to offer. He is a base and
bold deceiyer, and in his slick, Folly way
manages to fool and deceive some good
people. but his day will surely come,
for truth cannot be kept covered up.
