Increase of Governors Salary

The next legislature of Alabama will in all probability be asked to increase the governors salary from $5o00 to 5000 per year. A well defined movement has been started among the solons of the state to have such a bill passed and indications are that it will not meet with much op- position in either the upper or lower house.
 It is pointed out by supporters of the movement that the present salary afford ed the chief executive is inadequate in every way, and belittling to the high office which he holds.
 The movement to increase the govern or's salary is to be accompanied by a bill for the erection of gubernatorial mansion in Montgomery. An effort will be made In this connection to secure an appropriation of s10O,000.

Selma. September 3.-(SpeciaL)- prenarations through out Dallas coun- tv for the war which will be waged against the cattle tick Is going along rapidly and in a few weeks more the fight will be on and continue untii the cattle quarantine has been raised from the county by the government.
 The Selma Construction company, Of which w. R. Walker of this city IS manager, has the contract TOT the erection of cement vats in nearly eV- cry beat in the county and in whicn the cattle of each beat will be washed twice a month. At a session of the court of county commissioners some weeks ago that body decided to assist the government in the work or ehm- mating the cattle tick from Dallas county and agreed to build Vats Tn each beat and to employ man 10 see that every head of cattle In the peat was washed in these vats every two weeks.
 During the past week the selma Construction company has completed four large cement vats in the south- ern part of Dallas county. The com- many will complete four more vats in the same section during the next week and which will be all of the pub lie vats for that section.
 AS soon as the vats in the south ern part of the county have been com n1eted the company will begin the work of erecting and building similar yats in all other parts of the county and it is expected that all of the vats necessary will be completed dur- ing the present month.
 The farmers and cattle raisers of the county have joined hands with the county authorities and the government in the work of fighting the cattle tick With all working in harmony to the end of the raising of the cattle quar- antine from the county, 1t will be only a few months before the cattle of the county will be free from the ticks and the Texas fever. The loss to the farmers of the county in cattle which have died from Texas fever during the past summer has been large, and with the knowledge that the eradica- tion of the cattle tick from the county will save them many thousands of dol lars every year, everyone who has any cattle is anxious for the ticks to be exterminated and to see the quarantine lifted.
