MARION GOOD ROAD
 MEETING IS FAILURE

Marion, January 7.-(Special. )--The good roads meeting called to meet at the courthouse on Friday was a failure. Less than a dozen persons were present to hear the speaker who had been engaged for the occasion, and the entire pro- gramme was abandoned. The public road question has been the leading topic for discussion in the county for two years and the authorities as much at sea today as when the question first came up A portion of the people favor the plan em- pioyed last year, while practically all large land owners are opposed to it.. The question of bonds to build the roads was discussed by many persons during the day, while others claim the board of rev. enue are not levying su.-cient revenue now to meet the countys expenses, and the interest on bonds would fall fiat. It fs probable that some local measure will be passed by the legislature that may solve the question. In the meantime the taxpayers are asking the question, How are we to pay for the se0o0 worth of sec ond-hand road machinery left on hand.'

Mexico City, January 7-Robles Domn. guez, after 50 days Imprisonment in the penitentiary here. today confessed to having been treasurer for Francisco I. Madero. insurrectionary leader. He had resisted all efforts to reveal his active re- lation with the revolution until convinced that the cause was lost He then gave the authorities a list of those subscribine funds and an account of their determi nation.
 Dominguez was said to have declined preferred appointments first as governor of Guanajuato and later as governor of the federal district under the government, which Madero proposed to establish.

Chihuahua, January 7.-(Via Fl Pasoo- Guerrero has been abandoned as the base of operations of the insurrecto forces. ac- cording to conflrmatory advices brought in today by Americans from that vicinity
 Since the last fight at Pedernales, Oro- zoco, the insurrecto leader has been busy with most of his forces transferring SUD- plies to the mountains west of Guerrero
 A light force was kept in front of Ma varro to impede his advance, although there was no hope of checking 1t. This accounts for the fact that 1t has taken the general week to advance 20 miles The brush at Rosario on Wednesday oc- cured in this way There were rumors that some losses had been sustained bu, they were without confirmation, according 10 todays adyices. The retreat of the revolutionists was anything but rout orozoco retreated with deliberation to be- gln the work of changing his base while ms rear guard engaged the attention of cry Mexican is said to be a revolutonist. although so far it has been impossible to arm them.

 Navarro occupied Minaca yesterday, as well as San Izadoro. The latter town is but a mile or so from Guerrero, so his presence at San Isadoro means practi- cally that he has Guerrero. He will find no force of any size to contest his path to the south. Word from the big lumber camps is more favorable than had been looked for. No property has been dam aged, nor have the men been anxious for their own safety. The peons who quit work, as most of them did merely went to their homes to await the resumption of work ai

 mains at Clanton

Clanton, January 7.-(Special. )--The po- liticai situation in Clanton is somewhat out of the ordinary.
 Last September Mayor A. E. Matthews was giving the town a magnificent ad- ministration and making many improve ments for the public good. Just at the close of his second term he had so man aged as to get things in shape so as to justify the installation of the sewerage system. It happened that the start was made at point near his own home and this aroused the antagonism of every cit izen residing at a distance from the be- ginning point.
 Each thought that the sewerage sys- tenn should have been begun at a point which would have given him the particu- lar advantage. Soon after the beginning of the sewerage system the town election was held and though pr. Matthews was nominated by an enthusiastic meeting of the citizens. another faction put out a ticket headed by J. M Potts. The cleo tion in September swept MT. Potts into office and for nearly three months he was mayor of Clanton.
 Suddenly he resigned. giving as his req son that his private business required all of his time, but to a few friends he con- fided that the sewerage proposition had put him out of the running. Since the resignation of MT. Potts, H. M Mahan has been acting mayor, being member of the town council. Now he balks at serving further, saying that the duties and "cussings" are altogether out of pro- portion to the pay, which is S1 per year

Upon appeal to the supreme court a new trial was ordered and she was convicted of murder In the second degree, the jury fixing the punish ment at 5 years in the penitentiary Her attorneys again made an appeal to the su- preme court, but did not ask for stay of execution of sentence.

Washington, January 7.-(Special.) )-Col- onel Roosevelt has accepted the invita- tion of the executive committee of the Southern Commercial Congress to speak OH the second day of the meeting. choos- ing for his subject The Souths Respon- sibiity in Statesmanship and Business Endeavor." The colonel first chose for his subject '"The South in Statesmanship and Business Endeavor," but realizing how great will be the responsibility of the south in the rapidity of the growth of the entire country, changed 1t to '"The soutfis Responsibility in statesmanship and Business Endeavor"
 In a recent letter to MT. Charles Hall Davis, chairman of the executive com mittee of the Southern Commercial Con-i gress. Colonel Roosevelt said: For long the eyes. of the nation have been set steadily westward to watch it's great and typical growth, From now on I think the south will share with the west in rapidity of growth. This leadership of the south will be hastened by the com pletion of the Panama canal; the east has the Atlantic, the west the Pacinc, tile south even more than. the east or the west, will have the Panama canal. and will, therefore, stand at the distribute ing point of all the great oceans of the world. There are opportunities for liter ally millions of opportunity seekers In the south, provided those opportunity seekers are the right men to grasp the opportuni- ties that will be afforded All broad minded men throughout the nation must heartily sympathize with the commercial congress in what 1t Is doing both to de- velop and increase the power of the south and at the same time to arouse therein . keener national sense.''

CROPS DAMAGED
 BY COLD WAVE

Bay Minette, January 7.-(Special)- Since the cold wave has visited the coun- ty, farmers are beginning to see the amount of damage it has done. The truck crops have suffered extensively and the citrus fruits have been injured considera- bly, but not as much as was first ex- pected as the sap was down in the trees and the cold did not affect them as was thought. The general farmer reports that in q number of ways the cold snap was a great help. The freezing or the ground has killed many of the insects which live government forces.
 While his little army works in small bands, it Is declared that they are still operating in harmony with a general scheme to keep as many of the government soldiers as possible in this state, giving time for revolutionary organizations in in the ground.
 It is figured that the boil weevil, which came into the county late last season, was not bothered great deal, as the cold was not intense enough, though 1t is thought good many of them have been killed. The other insects have been Killed and the coming year is looked forward to as one of the best for the growth of crops The ground has been loosened up great deal by the freeze, and the oats crop, which is well along at present, will begin a new growth, not being injured by the cold.
