COTTAGE BURNEp.
Small BIaSe in North Montgomery
 Gives Big Reflection.

ETC cOhpIeIeIy destFoyed tWo- room negro house, located near the Hartley Boiler Works in North Mont gomery, at about 9:45 o'clock last night Several of the companies re- sponded to the alarm, but after their arrival little could be done to check the progress of the flames.
 The reflection from the blaze as it appeared to people in the downtown district, gave the impression to those who witnessed, that serious confla - grafton was threatened and many thought that the Hartley Boiler Works or one of the warehouses in that sec tion of the city was atire. For nearly half an hour a lurid glow fingered in the sky.
 The cause of the blaze was moi learned.

HOBBIES AT HEFLTN.
Set Fire to Store After Committing Bur

Set Fire tO Store Alter COmmitfing Bur
 gfary.
 Annistons Aug. 19.-- (speeisl) )v--A daring burglary. coupled with attempted incendia- rism took place at Heflin last night when the big store of Adkins & Owens was en- tered about II o'clock and all the available cash taken. besides possibly a quantity of goods the amount of the latter being un- known.
 The cash secured by the burglars was on- lv a small amount left in the register. And 1t is not thought that much goods were taken. as the burglars were frightened away by some boys who happened along.
 But the burglars. after being frightened away from their job. returned to the store and set fire to the building with the evident purpose of concealinK their robbery. The fire. however was discovered and put out before any material damage was done.
 No clue. 1t Is said, has been discovered which points out the identity of the bur glars and wouId-be firebugs though the officials have been diligent in trying to ferret out the guilty ones.

ALONG THE ARKANSAS.
Items of Interest Boiled Down
About the Famous Valley.

The Santa Fe railroad has issued
a new tariff covering points on the
Arkansas Valley railroad, which
the Santa Fe recently absorbed.
This tariff makes the rate on
melon shipments along this line
the same as other points on the
Santa Fe, which will save shippers
about $12 per car. About 100 car
loads will come from that branch.
Only 3OOacres of the amount re-
quireb by the Lamar factory for
the coming season remain unsign-
ed. The beets grown in the Wiley
and Big Bend districts will be
shipped to Holly this year.
The postmasters up and down the
valley are all happy these days
over increases in their salaries. The
post offices are pretty good indica-
tions of the growth of a country.
The prospects for a big canta-
loupe crop in the Colorado dis
tricts are said to be very fine.
Liberal, johnson City and other
towns in the southwest are BOOM
ing the project of building an cleo
tric line from Holly south as soon
as the Arkansas Valley project is
completed.
Great Bend has voted $4,000
for water works.

IT'S the statement of p Vermont citizen.
Sias B. Moon, of 994 Main ST., Benning-

troubled by kidney complaint. My back
panied me severely at times and l had
such acute headache and spells of dizzi-
ness that l would be unable to stand.
There was also something wrong with
my kindneys as the secretions were too
frequent in passage and continued
sediment. at last went to a drug store
and got a box of Doan's Kidney Pills.
They proved to be the best remedy had
ever used, not only relieving the pain in
my back but also regulating the action of
the kidney secretions. l am perhaps too
old to expect permanent cure, but l am
glad to know of a remedy that will bring
such beneficial results as does Doan's

Met With Accident.

William Stark of the town of ely
man, rural route No. l, met with a
rather unfortunate accident at Clymsr
recently.
Upon leaving the store at the village
of Clyman, he attempted to step from
the porch to the sidewalk. In doing
SO, he slipped and fell in such a
manner as to badly spraln one uf his
legs, besides receiving bruises by the
tall. While the mishap was bad en-
ough as it was, Mr.. Stark considers
himself lucky IN that the limb was
not broken. With the weather as it
has been recently, sidewalks have
been in deplorable condition and
Mr.. Stark can console himself at least
to the extent that he is not the only
one to suffer as a result. In Water
town, many have found it necessary
to keep in the middle of the road to
avoid accidents of this kind.

NEW PARTY PROPOSED.

Thomas w. Lawson, the Boston
financier, who has been after the min
ing sharks who float stocks of question:
able value at inflated prices and make
millions of dollars out uf the suckers,
has starred in to organize new party
which shall nominate Theodore Roose-
welt for the presidency and John john
son governor Minnesota for the vice
presidency.
1t is good scheme. Both are good
men. but 1t means the disruption of
both of the old parties and the organ
lzation of a new one; but IL Will
hardly be a SUCCESS, for the reason
that party attachments are very
strong and hard to be broken. Yet,
it must be admitted that party lines
have about disappeared, that there Is
not much, if any difference, between
the radicals in either of the old
parties and the conservatives In the
dominant parties are about the same.
In this state, year ago last Novem-
Der, thousands of democrats voted the
republican ticket, thus defeating their
own ticket and it is possible. but not
probable, that Lawson's new party
will find many supporters, especially
among those who want a change and
do not care a continental what it is
so long as they get new deal.

A GOOD SCHEME PROPOSED.

1t remained for a democrat down
in Missouri, Gov. Thomas, TO sug-
gest a feasible plan to be adopted by
the government to prevent strjngency
in the money market. His plan pro-
vides for the issuance by the govern
ment of $500, 600, 900, the greenbacks.
which shall be loaned out as occasion
may demand, to the banks at per
cent. 1t is simple, and just as easy
az rolling off log. The government
stands behind the greenback, the
banks pay interest and the people reap
the benefit of the lost or destruction
of the issue or any part thereof. The
ex-governor has a good chunk box"
on his shoulders, and should Bryan be
ele ;ted to the presidency he certainly
should make him secretary of the
treasury, for he would be good as
Cortelyou and safer than, o. Shaw,
what, is the use of talking.

REVISE THE TARIFF.

From reports from the National
Capitol it is learned, that the govern
ment is hard pushed for money with
which to meet it's enormous expendi-
tlons, the receipts from the tariff and
internal revenue taxes being Inadu-
quate for that purpose. If the wise
(O solons at Washington would
reduce the tariff rate On Vulnerable
articles on the schedule, the receipts
would be largely increased and both
the home consumer and government
benefited. A prohibitive tsriff is
both robbery of the people and the
treasury, for 1t provides no revenue
with which to meet current govern
mental expenses and gives the home
manufacturer an opportunity to
charge the people at home far more
than the same American manufactured
articles are sold in foreign markets.
