Montgomery, Ala, Nov. 80
Early returns in the Alabama
amendment election indicate that the
proposed amendment to put prohlbi-
ton in the constitution has been de-
feated by a decisive vote. From the
few precincts which closed at D
o'clock the reports indicate that the
farmer vote is largely against 1t, lhe
majority in Montgomery county
against it was 37S.
The indications are that the
amendment lost in majority OF the
counties.
The anti-amendment leaders claim
that the result will be a landslide,
and that the majority against VIII
be larger than they had expected.
The amendment leaders were dis
appointed at the early returns, but
expressed the hope that they Will
carry the measure by a narrow ma
jority.
Most of the large counties went
heavily against the measure.
While women and children we're
at the polls in many places, their
presence did not affect the vote to
any extent. There was no disorder OF
excitement.

Land has declared that he has
given up all his athletic life and en-
tered the ministry. He has made ar
raugements TO enter the Moody BIZ
Bile institute at Chicago very soon.
Land did some work in the rural
districts a year ago in the interest
Of the Baptist church, and the Rev.
IT. j. Conkright, pastor of the local
Baptist church has invited him to
preach from his pulpit, which invi-
tation has been accepted This viii
be his first effort in city church.
1t is thought by many that the
recent Crazy Snake war may have
caused Land to determine to enter
| the ministry. His mother is a sympa-
! thizer with the Harjo clan, while
Land stoutly favors the progressive,
( or as he puts it, civilization. It is
understood that the conversations

the conflict Of saYagery and progress
ihave been decidedly firm and de
itermined

PINE LAND ASSESSMENTS
Political Gossip as to Probable Candi-
dates for Governor in the
Next Election.

The N. o. Pieayune of August 4th
has the fon1Hing:
Hon. Swords X. Lee. former men,
Ter of the State Legislature, and
nruIber of the Port Investigation
Commission, Of Alexandria, and ex-
Senator {. h. Tenl. of CoIfax. Srant
parish, were in the city yesterday on
business. Both are prominent men
ia central louisiana, and are now
taking a deep interest in the equali-
zation Of pine timber lands in the
State aud the stumpage lands.
MIR. Lee will go to Baton Rouge in
tile next few days to appear before
he State Bonrd ot Equalization. now
in session. AMI urge remodeling al
the assessments ON CERTAIN classes OF
timber lands.
''D-nuded or stunpage lands, said
Colonel Lee. ''arr assessed uniformly
at 81 per acre. That is too high.
i'he assessfi,pIIt on these lands should
be fifty cents per mere. We have just
had some excellent examples of this
mp in ourcOuntry. In thu settlement
ri the estate uf the late Senator M.
gent several tracts OF stnmpage land
We're offered for sale to he tiled by
farmers. The very best that could
be secured for that land was 66z
cents per acre, aud the most of it had
to he withdrawn. This land is to-
day assessed for 81 per acre. Yet it
will not bring over 66z cents, and
hardly that. This is one example.
''Onr mill company at Tioga offer
Ell to give n section of land To imlni-
grants who would come in and set
tie up the land aud live on it and
cultivateit for three years; We offered
to give them these quarter sections
after three years residence, but no
one would take the offer, yet We ARE
paying 81 per acre assessment on
this land"
Senator Teal explained that there
were three grades of pine timber
A, b and {, which were
assessed at $3.50, $3.50, $10.5O
respectively. and then the stumpagp
land att 81. Senator Tealanf Mr.. Lee
both suggested rs a partial remedy |
for the immediate future was to sug-
.yest to the board that class A, which
the good thinner. he ra isesl
to $40 per acre and the denudrd cut |
to fifty cents per acre.
III the State BoHrd of Equaliza-
ton will do this. said both Senator
Teal and Mr. Lee, 1--WE will say moth
my about the intermediate grades at /
al and let them stand"
Both Mr.. Lee and Senator Teal are
lose studt nts Of political conditions
ia central Louisiana.
There is general talk in that section
that Judge Charles v. Porter, of
will be a candidate for
governor ON the Statewide prohibit
ion platform! and leading TINT party
n Louisiana. The name OF Spea ker
IF the House H. Garland Dupre is
,eing ineneioned IN central Louisianai
is aiikeiy candidate for Governor.
The impression is quite general'iu
hat section that Colonel Lee will be
! candidate for the Stnte Senate ut
he next State election, although hr
Ienied that there was any founda-
ion for the report. Senator Teal
aid it was true. III
