we asked the negro what he was doing
there that time of night. For answer he

That looked suspicious and we gave
chase. We shot Into the air several
times and tried to scare the negro into
stopping. We told him that We were
policemen and that he should stop. He
ran to the alley and started to cross the
street. He was gaining on US every min

BRIGHT PICTURE
Thinks Future of Alabama Of
fers Great Things
MANY LOOKING TO SOUTH
saws idea That the Weather In Ala
bamn Is UnbearabIe During the
Heated Term keeps Many
People Away

Montgomery, June 6.-(Special)-A the
result of recent correspondence between
John II. Wallace, Jr., state game and
fish commissioner. and F. w. Samuels a
prominent business man of Indianapolis,
Ind, who is also an enthusiastic sports
man, it is quite probable that Mr.. Sam
uels will shortly acquire lands in Ala
bama, with the view of locating in this
state.
Mr.. Samuels is particularly interested
in the possibilities of Alabama as a to-
bacco-growing section, and he believes
this state has great future as a tobacco
producer. His letter to Mr.. Wallace is SO
prophetic as to the future of Alabama
as to be of interest to all citizens in
terested in the development of the state
Mr.. Samuels says: THE agriculture
literature received, and spent last even
ing in reading the possibilities of Ala
bama. l noticed In the reports of each
county that all we're anxious for new
blood and the invitation for outsiders to
locate was unanimous.
THE prices Of land as compared to our
own state are ridiculously cheap. Our best
land sells readily at 800 to $50 per acre
with improvements of good character.
believe the Improvements are superior to
those in Alabama as to buildings and
fencing, as it is pride In Indiana to
have such improvements, and the stand
Ing of a farmer is rated from the manner
In which he keeps things a shinin' on
the farm.
There is going to be a time when the
west and northwest will be settled and
the people will turn towards the home of
the mockingbird, and then your state, as
well as other states. will come into their
own. The Idea that the weather is un-
bearable during the heated term keeps
many from even thinking of Dixie land.
But from what / learned in the reading
last night Alabama has an even tempera-
ture superior to Indiana, where we run
to one or the other extreme
The labor problem In the southland
seems to be another drawback, as your
labor mostly comes from the blacks, and
as in the north. they are unreliable and
worthless; bait Of chicken will render

lieve that IL I could secure a few acres
