SPRAG|NS WILL
 RUN FOR GOVERNOR Such Is the Claim of North
 Alabama Politicians FARMERS ENTHUSIASTIC 
Congressman o. c. Wiley Is Very Active During His Short Term of One Session-Tries to
 Help Farmers.
By HERvEY W. LAIRD.

Montgomery, January 23.-(Special.)-A north Alabama man says that State Sen ator Robert E. Spragins, of Madison county, is going to be in the race for governor at the next primary on a local option platform. This impression has reached almost the strength of cer- tainty, says the man talking. Mont gomery friends of the Madison senator had gotten the idea that he had about decided not to enter, but this seems to have been an error MT Spragins re- fused to vote for the prohibition bill at the extra session of the legislature in November 1907.
 Rhodes Not Receptive.
 The writer met Rufus N. Rhodes. of Birmingham, this week, and talked to him of his statement at Augusta, Ga., to the effect that the election of Judge Taft was received in the south as a benediction. He asserts that he has noth- ing to take back; also that there is q large following in the south with him in the opinion, though many of them have not the courage to speak out. MT. Taft has nothing, nor will he have as presi- dent to give me-" said MT. Rhodes. "I am not available for any political office and what sai dto the President-elect was out of a firm belief that it was a fact.

,crupulous dealers, mindful only of prof caring nothing for the health of their ns are offering for sale low grade, impure ,ey, which they tell you is as good as 's"
 It is a cheap concoction and fraud fn- tended to deceive the people. Of course, when a remedy has been before the pub lie so long. has been prescribed and used by the best doctors and in all the promi- nent hospitals, and has carried the blessing of health into so many thousands of homes as Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey has, imita- tions are bound to arise But they can initiate the bottle and label only-no one can initiate the contents
 Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey is abso- lutely pure distillation of matted grain; great care being used to have every kernel thoroughly matted, thus destroying the germ and producing a predigested liquid food in the form of a malt essence, which is the most effective tonic stimuant and invigorator known to science; softened by warmth and moisture, it's palatability and freedom from injurious substances render it that it can be retained by the most sensitive stomach
 Any firm that will sell imitation or sub stitution goods will sell impure goods. The firm that is dishonest in one thing would not hesitate to be dishonest in another. Whenever you see imitation and substitu- tion goods offered for sale by a firm, be- ware of anything and everything put up by that firm. You endanger your own life and the lives of your family and friends by dealing with them.

BOYS ARE HELD
 FOR INVESTIGATION
Four of the Gang of Six AL
 lowed Bail
MAN AND WIFE IN JAIL
G. Grosvenor Dave Will Go to Wash ington Soon to Take Up Work as Managing Director of Com
 merclaI Congress.

Montgomery, January 29.-(Special)- Four of the six boys who have been ar rested on suspicion of having entered stores and a church have been allowed bail, the other two being held for ffr- ther investigation. In the meantime tbe police are using every effort possible to locate the goods said to have been taken by the gang. Those released on bond are Roy Dickerson. Clarence sherman. Charles Smith and Marvin Compton. Rob ert Edwards and Homer Lunsford are still at the station.
 It is thought that these boys were work ing in a regular gang, entering and taking where things could be secured. Some tobacco stolen from a saloon is | thought to have been carried away by them, and $2O which disappeared from a local church is credited to their quiet work. However, there are no charges of burglary made so far, the officers hold ing them under charge of suspicion un- til the goods can be located. Several knives and other things taken from an arms store have been recovered.
 The arrest of the boys has created a great deal of talk Many feel that they are too young, all being under IA, to be in the police jail, while others aver tnat this is the only way to handle them. The two boys yet in jail were at the depot when arrested. They had told the mother of one that they were going to Opelika. though they had tickets to Mobile when arrested

Busy MT. Wiley.

Congressman O. C. Wiley, who will have only a part of the term of his late lamented brother, A. A. Wiley, is trying to do a lot in a short time. He has introduced bills to help the farmers, the merchants and the roads, his latest be- ing a movement to secure aid in road building from the United States. His work is such that when s. H. Dent, the con gressman- elect for the rull term beginning March f. gets on the ground he will find 8 fast pace to work by. MT Dent hoped to have a look in at Washington for a few days before the end of the session but the local court dockets held enough of his cases to keep him at home

Julian Worried.

Secretary of State Frank N. Julian is carrying about a worried look. "The municipalities are going to play the wild with the insurance rates," he said one day this week. "Dothan for instance, has raised it's license from $15 to $100 a year. It is going to make the doing of business so expensive that many of the companies will try to find way out. That way will be a raise in the rates of fire insurance. Two per cent in the state will mean lot of loss to insurers, but 1t is not at all improbable if the small towns keep on laying on the price of business. It is good idea to think about this just a little.'

A. Goldstein, the man Killed with Leo Speigel on Monday night, supposedly by negroes, was man of fine literary tastes, it Is folhd. In his trunk were found such books as Shakespeare and Tennyson and a number of the Greek classics. He is said to have been a man of education and influence in Roumania before coming to America and to have made rapid prog ress in the requirement of the language since arrival seven months ago.

Use of the River.

Montgomery merchants are stirred up over the rate question again and have determined to make wide use of the Alabama river. It is even intimated that to get rates local men will invest in boats that will ply all the way from the east to Mobile, and then send goods via river steamers up the river to this and inter mediate points. The s100O0 bond issue for a wharf will be taken by merchants of the city and they have pledged themselves to use of the river every time possible. As a result it is thought that the govern ment will be willing to do even more than has been promised.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1909-01-24

Now and then thing is done in the courts that the average man can not understand and quite often he is made to feel sore about it. Within the past few weeks the supreme court of Alabama has ruled on two cases of this kind. In one man was given a new trial on the showing that he was convicted of steal ing from one company when he stole from another. There was doubt of the theft, reversal being on the mistake in stating the loser of the goods The other was affirmation of the ruling of a lower court to disbar a lawyer because the papers did not affirmatively state that he was a lawyer. However these matters are fixed by statute and the judges have nothing else to do.

Farmers Enthusiastic.

Commissioner of Agriculture Wilkinson says that the prize contest of the depart ment on farm products is creating widest interest in all sections of the state. The outlook is now that ten to a dozen will compete in each county for the $1 600 offered for fine corn, potatoes, oats, etc. Thoughtful men see in this a great re- vival in the soil tilling territories and predict a bright future for the country Every year the rural schools get better and there are more school houses and better homes, so that Alabama is fast stepping into line as a progressive agri- cultural state.

Man and Wife In Jail.

Albert Hearn and his wife, May Hearn, are in the county jail. The husband has been convicted once for larceny of brass, the wife is held for killing a negress, Nida Patton, whom she shot to death on the doorstep of the white woman several days ago. While they are in the same Jail the man and woman are not in the same cell or apartment, the former being in the main part of the building and the woman in the room down near the office of the jailer.
 The trial of Mrs. Hearn will take place on Monday, and it is pretty well estab- lished that she will be freed. The negro woman went to her house and tried to enter, after making threats against the white woman. Mrs. Hearn, fearing for her life, fired out the window the ball striking the negress in the abdomen and producing wound that meant death. The warrant for Mrs. Hearn was sworn out by a sister of the dead woman.

It is understood that c. Grosvenor Dave, secretary of the Commercial club, will soon go to Washington to take up the work of the Southern Commercial congress, of which he is managing di- rector.
