an address on Saturday, the same day MT. Bowie was to speak. This petition was said to contain the names of 1OC voters, notwithstanding the fact that there are only about 200 qualified voters in and around the Central mills. the doctor spoke there in the afternoon and a party who was present tells Us that there were only II men at the speaking. We state further that practically every qualified voter at the Central mills came uptown to hear MT. Bowie. According to the list of registered qualified voters in this beat we only have 27S who can vote, hence we feel Justified in saying that the crowd to hear MT. Bowie was fully satisfactory to the committee in charge. Your correspondent did not say how many were at Oak Grove to hear Rev. J.. T. Morris. nor how many was at Herds Gap to hear MT. Thigpen.
 Both of these places are within two miles of Sylcauga and we would suppose the speakers could have brought in the night. We have no information as to the Oak Grove meeting, but are reliably in formed that there was plenty of room at the Gap. Yours truly.

The Shoppers Guide Of Greater Birmingham
Is On SaIe-A Creditable Publication Full of Valuable information.
 Extra Edition Necessary.

The Shoppers Guide of Greater Bir- mingham. published by the Davis Adver- tising Sales Co, is off the press. The Guide was compiled and published by a Birmingham firm; it was printed by a Birmingham firm, and every engraving was made by a Birmingham firm.

Following is an extract from the pub fishers predatory:
 Tt is with pride that the publishers of this, the first number of The Shoppers Guide of Greater Birmingham, present to the public. one of the finest and most costly publications ever issued from the press of Guide for a city. Every statis- tic that could be obtained relating to Greater Birmingham has been carefully compiled and is as accurate as time and money can make it, and many of the articles are from the pens of those who have made life study of the article appearing above their names
 The volume Is teeming with valuable statistics and general information. The printing is a work of art. Nearly all of the prominent buildings are shown and every cut stands out clear and cold. The advertising pages are liberally patronized. The book is on sale at % cents per copy and thousands of copies are being distributed over the country. The de- mand has about exhausted the first edi- tions and an extra edition of 6000 copies will be printed. The Guide carries the indorsement of the Business Mems league.

STANDARD OIL SECURES PEACE
COMPROMISE CONTROVERSY IN OKLAHOMA BY PROMISING TO
 BUILD AN EIGHT-lNCH PIPE
 LINE TO STANDARD REFINERY.

Bartlesvile, Okla, Novenpe1 1.-The Standard Oil company has compromised it's controversy with the state of Okla homa by organizing the Oklahoma Pipe Line company to build an eight-inch pipe line to carry oil to the Standard refinery at Baton Rouge, La. It is expected oil will be running through the line by Feb ruary 1.
 This will relieve the oil situation in Oklahoma, where low prices caused by the inability of the producers to market their oil has caused considerable loss.
 The new company will be an Oklahoma corporation. directly under the super vision of the state corporation commis- sion, which has authority to regulate rates. The company will be exclusively a common carrier, and will not buy oil nor own property of any kind in Oklahoma, save for the purpose of operating it's pipe line.
 Soon after statehood was established, the Prairie oil and Gas company. for eign corporation, undertook to build a pipe line and was enjoined by Attorney General West, under provision of the constitution denying to foreign corpora tions the benefits of the right of eminent domain over public highways
 Attorney General West was opposed in his suit by Governor Haskell on the ground that the attorney general had no authority to bring suit in the name of the state unless directed to do so by the governor.
 The dispute is still in the courts.
