LookIng to the Future.

 There are very few mortgage sales of real estate being foreclosed In Bibb County. This county has very few wealthy men, but has plenty of hon. est. reliable. hard working citizens. whose obligation to pay is as good as the best. They are slow in contract ing a debt that they are doubtful about meeting. This is a good indica- ton, and shows that they are living for the future and not for a day.

All Alabama is pleased with the growth of Birmingham or any other To- caItty in the State as to that matter. but MT. starke is very much mistaken as to the condition in what he calls the forest belt'' so far as Alabama is concerned. Time was. perhaps. when timber cutting was the main business in many parts of South Alabama and it Is a large business yet. but there are hundreds of well cultivated farms and beautiful homes now where one was not to be seen a few years ago. As timber was removed the farmer moved in and the most certain farming portion of Alabama today is that part which was covered only a few years ago with pine forests. Let Birming- ham grow to mammoth proportions. but let 1t not be forgotten that all AL abama is growing at a satisfactory pacs

The Pure Food Law.

Secretary Wilson says: Zone
of the objects of the law is to in
form the consumer of the pres
ence of harmful drugs in medi-
cines." The law requires that the
amount of chloroform, opium.
morphine, and other habit form
ing drugs be stated on the label of
each bottle. The manufacturers
of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
have always claimed that their
remedy did not contain any of
these drugs, and the truth of this
claim is now fully proven, as no
mention of them is made on the
label. This remedy is not only
one of the safest, but one Of the
best in use for coughs and colds.
Its value has been proven beyond
question during the many years it
has been in general use. For sale

SUNDAY TALKS OF CASE.

Mr.. Sunday believes the plot is
backed by the saloon element of
Springfield, III. He said
"Springfeld is now facing a city
election which will determine
whether the city is to stay wet or
90 dry. | am sure that this has
been arranged by certain members
of the saloon element. who would
stop at nothing i'm an attempt TO
keep me from getting there and
holding revivals just before the
election. The Springfield saloon
people are arranging a bio fight
against me. but | can hardly con-
ceive how they would dare attempt
this. The heudishness of the plot
is shown in the fact that they are
sending to Spokane to kill me
rather than killing me in Illinois.
They know only too well that to
attempt my life in that section
would arouse such sympathy that
their cause would be lost and would
sweep the saloons at once from the
State of Illinois. But to have it
done in Spokane would cause no
suspicion that the forces there were
connected with it,"

PLOT TO- KILL
BILLY SUNDAY.
WHO IS BEHIND 1T?

What is declared to be a plan to
asSassinate Evangelist Billy" Sun
day, who is holding a revival at
Spokane, Wash. has been unearth-
ed through the receipt of a letter
from a converted eX-convict. When
told of the matter, Alr. Sunday
said it was the work of one or two
parties, either the liberal element
of Springfield where he is to 90
after his present series of revivals
close, or the saloon element of the
State of Illinois. The letter was
addressed to Charles Butler. Mr..
Sundays singer. The writer of
the letter says he met two men in
Springfield just after the holidays
who had been hired to do the job.
Both had recently been let out of
prison. Asked as to where they
GOT the money. they told of their
plans to 90 away with Sunday.
The letter comes from an eX-con-
Wet who was himself converted
, ear AGO by Mr.. Sunday.
