a meeting for Saturday of the men,

It is the regular time for the Demo-

The Democratic Club here has the
following officers: President. w. /.
Holcomb; Vice President, C. E. Nit

Treasurer, DR.. J. r. Burleson.
There has always been a large Re-
publican vote in this precinct. Four
years ago the Republican nominee for
constable tied with the Democratic
nominee for the office and the sheriff
cast the election In favor OF the
Democratic nominee.
This time both parties have full
tickets nominated for the entire county
including precinct candidates in this
and few other precincts and the fight
is warm.

in this precinct shows about ls0 Demo-

Selig Gassenheimer IL Actively Baeking
Project And s20O,000 May BE
Subscribed In Short
Time.

Plans are under sdvisement for
paper mandatory here and are being
considered by several representative
business men. Selig Gassenhe ner
manager Of the Mercantile Paper Com
pany, of Commerce street, is actively
backing the proposition and has in
terested Northern capital In 1t. he
will also take considerable amount
of the stock, and 1t Is intimated the
winter-Loeb Company will also be
among the large stockholders.
Other firms are considering the sub
ject OF subscription and 1t Is expected
that In a week OF SO the capital stock,
5000 900. will be subscribed.
On previous occasions paper mill
has been proposed for Montgomery but
because of lack of interest has fallen
through. Last year one was proposed
and it seemed would have been con-
structed, but the advent OF the late
panic forced the matter to drop. With
the return OF prosperity, the subject
has again been agitated, and with the
present enlisted strong backing. 1t Is
expected will go through shortly.
One OF the business men here who
is interested in the plan. said yester-
day that a feature of the plans was
the utilization of corn and sugarcane
stalks for pulp, the experiments of the
company in Cuba using this material
for pulp having been reported as very
satisfactory. This. however. will be
merely experimental, for the manufac-
tory will of course not confine itself
to experiments while getting under

CAUSE HUsTLING.
Wave of Prosperity Sighted In Ofnng
Now Has the Railroad COnstruc-
ton Forces on the

There is an air of subdued uneasi-
ness in railroad circles here. The PAN
icky times just over caused the roads
to materially decrease their construc-
ton forces and instead OF building the
usual supply Of rolling stock. the old
stun was overhauled by short forces
and utilized. Now prosperity seems to
be returning with a rush and the
roads being worked almost to capacity
and absolutely to the limit In instances,
there Is uneasiness felt about being
able to attend to IT all. minus the usual
yearly supply of new stock.
In spite of the financial depression
and adverse legislation of the last year,
lines have been in some instances ex-
tended and many new manufacturing
plants have been. built throughout the
South. Lumber Is also reported In great
demand this fall, and other freight,
now turned loose to restock short store
houses whose supplies were cut down
by hard times, is creating a demand
for freight service that Is steadily
growing
The roads are on the jump getting
the cars that have been out Of COM
mission back into working order. and
the machine shops are humming, TAX
ing out engines that have been stored
away and getting them ready for bus
mess.
The Louisville and Nashville will not
have any trouble with draft power,
for just before the panic they placed
an order for several locomotives. and
now have them at Rocky Mount N c..
packed away. and It will take but a
short time to get them into commits
sion. The Central Of Georgia is in
practically the same lucky state. They
ordered twenty-five new locomotives
Just before the panic broke. and over
a hundred freight cars, besides building
large new shop plant at Macon. Ga.
These roads will be able to handle their
share of business easily. but others
that are not so we'll fixed may be
hard put to be able to cover their ter
ritory..
At the way things are going now
there is no danger of a shortage but
a continued increase in business. such
as may be caused by the looseuing of
the tied-up cotton crop. would prob
ably cause an explosion in freight cir
cles. A question Of 12 cents for cot

Meantime, in preparation for this.

q month longer the roads will be ready
to meet and be helped by the coming
