Estes Returns.

Mr. J. A. Estes returned this afternoon from Montgomery, where he has been making such a splendid fight for the new county. MT. Estes refused to make statement but it was gathered from his general remarks that he was not encour- aged over the outlook for the new coun- ty. All he would say was, "I cannot tell which way the legislature will go." MT. Estes, however, did say that the bill brought forward by the representative from Marengo county to create a new county from Marengo had been sup pressed. This bill was brought out by Bessemers petition for a new county cut off entirely out of Jefferson, and 1t was considered very dangerous to the Bes- semer interests A good many of the men from here in Montgomery returned to the city to spend today and tomorrow with their families. Among those return ing are: T. T. Huey, E. W. McNeil, Ben G. Perry, Dr. McTyeire and J. A. Estes. Gardner Goodwin will remain in Mont gomery with Dr. M. c. Ragsdale, who is slowly recovering from his illness.
