 Real Situation.
 This resume of the cases is given to demonstrate that public sentiment In Mo- bile, instead of becoming gradually ad- justed to the new order of things, as some have predicted would be the case is in fact and in truth counterbalancing the scales until cognizance must be taken of the real situation. This week we had as witnesses one imported Nashville detec- tive and a citizen of our county from Semmes, who accompanied the detective upon his rounds. Locally the witnesses interested in the liquor fight gre all from the neighborhood of Wilmer and Semmes and it Is difficult to understand their posi- ton in view of the fact that during the past two sessions of the legislature, In 1903 and in 1907, there were passed blanket pro- hibition bills for that end of the county by the present and former delegation from this county, which, if not successful in the small communities these gentlemen hail from is but another evidence of how unfrJitful is prohibition legislation.
 An excise commission with absolute control will regulate; prohibition will never prohibit. Pending the experimental stage in other Alabama cities (not towns where prohibition is a good thing). it would be we'll to adopt a local plan to solve this question"

This executive committee will meet about August 16 and report the number enrolled and also discuss ways and means of beginning the work.
 Another general meeting about Septem- Der 1 will be held and everybody in the county that can possibly attend Is expected to be on hand, and at this meeting the plans for working and rais- ing the funds necessary will be adopted and 1t is then expected that the work will be taken up. A large crowd was present at today's meeting and all are enthusiastic for the movement, officers were elected who will undoubtedly take an active interest in the work and who are leading citizens in the county, and the entire citizenship of the county is awake to the fact that counties far less rich than ours naturally have prospered more because of their good roads and Tallapoosans are determined to have them, too.
 The registrars of Tallapoosa county are in session at the courthouse, so as to give those becoming of age since their last round the chance to register and vote in the bond election to be held here Monday. The purpose of the election is to see whether the town shall issue bonds for the purpose of completing the high school building, which has already been begun.
 The Worth While club held its regular bi-weekly meeting Thursday afternoon with Mrs Wilbur Oliver. The subjects studied related to the reconstruction period in Alabama and several instruc- tive papers were read, such as '"The Ad- ministraton of Governor Lewis" by Mrs. Carlisle; "The Klu Klux K1an,' by Mrs. I,ackey; "The Restoration of State Gov ernment," by Miss Henri Bulger, and "The Constitutional Convention of 1875.

 Miss Victoria Harrel, enof the most prominent society girls in this city, and who Is well known in musical circles here, Little Rock and Mem phis, recently sustained the loss of a sixty-dollar basket hat because the piece of headgear so much resembled a pot of flowers. Miss Harrel sang at fashionable wedding in this city sev- eral nights ago and hurriedly returned home to enjoy an auto ride with some friends. When she reached her resi- dence, on West Sixth avenue, the par ty was in waiting and Miss Harrel placed her hat over jardiniere in which were some small ferns and which were hidden from view in cor ner of the front porch. After Miss Harrel rode away with her friends her mother, Mrs. c. F. Coe, came out of the house and proceeded to sprinkle the flowers. Of course the covered jardiniere came in for a share of the 'wetness," and when Miss Harrel re- turned she found the hat and it's costly trimmings wilted and ruined

WEATHER GOOD FOR
 GROWING COTTON

Decatur, July 9.-(Special.) .)-The past week has been another week of fine cot growing weather, owing to the ab- sence of heavy rains. It has been week of hot sunshine, just such as has been needed for cultivation and grass killing. As a result of the favorable weather con- dition much cultivation has been done during the week until now the crop throughout the Tennessee valley as rule is in a better state of cultivation than it has been at any time since planting. For a time on account of the heavy rains the grass and weeds had gotten the upper hand of the farmers, but such Is not the case today. But little acreage has been abandoned in this section of the state on account of failure to work the crop, caused by the rains during June.
 In this section labor has been sufficient for the cultivation of the crop by work ing extra long hours after the rains abated.
 Insects of no kind have yet bothered the plant in this locality, and the farm this line. The plant is strong and healthy and Is still making a good growth. It is both branching and fruiting well. The farmers here are most hopeful of good crop this season, and if the condition be- comes no worse than they are at this time there will be fully an average crop made here this season.
 It is believed that the Farmers union will control the movement of cotton in this section to some extent this fall. In this part of the state the union is very strong and well organized, almost every farmer being a member The union owns @ number of cotton warehouses in this section of the state for storing cotton for their members and loaning money on cot ton thus stored.

Little Pleatinus.
om the Detroit News-Tribune.

From the Detroit News-Tribune.
 The tiny knife pleatings only an inch in width are again coming to the front with the revival of the fussy dresses of the 1880 period. They belong to the era of the little roses, narrow fringes and puffs The selvage of chiffon cloth cut off and sent to the pleaters or else done with patience at home will save the whole hemming process. The French also double chiffon before it Is pleated, to avoid the hemming. The selvage of some silks may be used in the same way, and when the band of a different color along the edge happens to be in harmony or in good con- trast, 1t has even been chosen as deco ration for the dress, and allowed to go into the frills, whether gathered or plear- ed, they are felled to the gown so that the pattern may not be wasted in seam. Taffeta ribbon, too, is frequently con- verted into knife pleatings

As to the New Year

Quite a lot of the advertising the
Democrat has been carrying for the
past few weeks is peculiarly Holiday
advertising and with the passing of
the Holiday season will necessarily
drop out Of our columns. The Demo
crat recognizes the fact that this sort
of advertising would be useless and
unremunerative at any other season.
But with the dawning Of the year
1910 it will be Just as essential for
our business men to keep themselves
before the people and, as a conse-
quence, keep Anadarko before them
also The election of progressive
and energetic officers for the Com
mercial Club will avail little unless
the rank and file of the business men
in AnadarKo second their efforts in
every possible way. it were better

The year 1910 means much for Ana

go each. The inspection board has de
termined that the law shall be inforced
in the future and will take no excuse
from any stockman for driving stock
from the state until it has been expect
ed. Under the law no railroad can
move any stock without inspection and
the only opportunity to get stock out
of the state without inspection has
been to sneak them over the line into
an adjoining state and ship from there.
Inspectors have been instructed to
keep close watch Of any such move
ment and in the future it will be all
most impossible for stock to be remov-
ed in this way without ultimate detec-
ton will follow in every case.
While the Colorado law on brand in
spection is strict, it is fair and for the
best interest of the industry as Il
whole. There are plenty of inspectors
and the inspection causes little or no
inconvenience or cost. Denver Record

TWO BUTTES OPENING

The Two Buttes land drawing
on the 21st Inst. and the Town
Lot sale on the 22nd We're both
well attended by Baca County
citizens, as well as by many of
the most prominent citizens of
Lamar. The promoters had
made ample preparation for the
accommodation of all persons in
attendance; both as to food and
lodging, there being two or three
boarding-houses at which good
meals were served; also two large
tents which were supplied with
new hunks and new bedding,
and we were pleased to note that
there was not case of disorder
ly conduct. The town well sup
plies an abundance of clear,
sparkling, pure water; these quail
tiles being characteristic of Baca
county water.
In the land drawing our old
friend and neighbor, Gabriel Me
Nickle, was the lucky man, draw
ing No. /, which entitled him to
first choice of land, and his Sc
lection was 40 acres adjoining the
Town-site on the East. Some
other very choice tracts were Sc
cured by some of our citizens.
What is supposed to be the best
lot in town was auctioned, and
was bought by A. B. Allen Of
Springfield. Onda Young, ID. G.
Greathouse and others also
bought lots.
The Springfeld-Lamar Tele-
phone Company has ordered ma
terial for and will soon have a
telephone line connecting Two
Buttes with the rest of the
county, as well as with all outside
long-distance points. The con-
tractors for both the dam and
ditch work are now on the
ground at work, and any Baca
County persons who desire team
work for the winter, can secure
same by calling on the Contract
ors at or near Two Buttes.
