most other dispensary seats. They thought. too. they ought to have had the opportunity to vote on the Ques- tion.
 Prohibition Opponents.
 Not all merchants speak of prosper ity. Morris Mayer. one of the wealth. fest in Demopoiis, vouches for no in- crease in business. He frankly says that his business compares about even with the volume of trade last year in the months of January and February. He does not see how, in this short time, when the negro has not much money or the white laborer, either. for that matter, there could be any nat ural improvement in business condi- tions.
 The man with the money is getting his drink if he wants 1t. and he wants it now If he wanted 1t before Janu- ary 1.
 And so this Is told by cotton broker of prominence:
 q am sorry to comics that in Jam uary and February drank more whis- key and beer than in any two months in my recollection. Prohibition is more expensive to me than saloons. drank as much or more than before. and now I am often approached by friends who hit me for a drink. They seem not to have the foresight or en- terprise to order their pints and so I hand them over a bottle rather than see them suffer. Wouldn't you?
 And another expense. get my beer by water from New Orleans. The freight on 1t Is $S per cask. not only lost this but also the money that I would get In exchange for empty bot ties say let's do away with prohi- bition."
 An Extreme View.
 One of the extremists of Demopols hold a startling view of the future of Alabama and the agricultural South. He predicts negro domination.
 "If, as our good prohibition friends contend, the negro has been deprived permanently of drink and he has been revolutionized industrially," says he. then 1t is the more a calamity. He will certainly save this money that he used to lavish on booze. He must prosper as he never did before He will become a landowner and will ac- ouire the vast acres of our Southland. He will get enough of the wealth to control the government. I hand their argument back to the prohibitlonists when they come round talking in that fashion"
 One of the leading saloon men of Demopolis has opened mall order whiskey house In New Orleans His following in Alabama and Mississippi was remarkable and he is trying to hold this trade. or as much of 1t as nossible. He Is himself located In De- mopolis in a legitimate business and Is reaping profits in two directions.
 There is an excellent opening for liouor traffic on the Tombigbee River via Mobile and the Gulf from New Or. leans The low freight rates on beer discount materially the express charges and 1t Is said that good deal of bus mess will be done this way.

EVIDENCE OF
 A FREBUG Said to Have Caused Recent Fires. MAN SEEN AT NELSON FIRE Ran Away from the Scene With
 0n Can. The Police Department Is Investisas- inG the Recent Reports That the Numerous Fires Were Caused
 By . Fiend.

That the recent number of fires in the city have been started by a fire- bug, has turned from suspicion to con- viction in the eyes of the authorities. Unquestioned proof that the fire on Pelham Street Thursday was deliber- ately started, has been established. |. The driver of a dairy wagon says he saw a man run from under A. B. Nell sons home. 112 Pelham Street, at sun rise. Thursday morning. when the ire started, with an oil can in his hands. Investigation by the Fire Depart ment has satisfied the officials that tho fire was purposely started. There was no one stirring in the house at the time and the fact that the outside Of the structure was blazing all around. when the firemen got there. satisfies the be- lief that the fire was started outside. The inmates of the house had no inki- ing of danger until they were aroused by neighbors. and there was no smoke inside the house when they were walked up.
 That oil was used in quantity was shown by the rapid progress of the flames on a morning when little wind was blowing When the apparatus of the department reached the scene the house was enveioped and practically nothing was saved. Mir Nelson's baby was snatched from the crib and taken to the street in its nightgown and its parents ruhed to the street partially clothes.
 Paul sanguinetti. MT. Nelson's fa- ther-in-law. said yesterday that the loss of the contents of the burned structure was complete. nCthing was saved, and the valuable property in the house covered bv a scant $7e0 tn- surance.
 As these facts developed, the inves- tigation of the situation spread to other recent fires and 1t was learned that the first information the inmates of the first house that burned in the negro quarter earlier in the week had. was when they were called out by per sons who saw the flames outside the house. Five negro cottages were in
 flames by the time the hremen reached the place and the rapid spread Is said to have been due to the pres ence of applied infiammables, as well as to the defective water plug consum- ing so much time in being opened. That there Is a firebug in the city many believe. and the convincing evi. dence of the Pelham Street fire and the fire in the negro quarter, clinches the fact in the eyes of the officials. An other queer thing about 1t Is that in- variably the houses set ablaze have been one story wooden structures. N
 The police have been put In touch with the situation and a most rigid investigation will be inaugurated.

HOW no MAKE A GOOD ROAD

The Materials to BE Used; How 10

The cut herewith illustrates In de-
