NEW METHOD OF
IDENTIFYING CRIMINALS

What Is claimed to be the last word
in scientific detection of criminals is
the photographing of the backs of
hands. The great objection to the
finger print system is that, though
trustworthy as far as it goes, being
based on the fact that no two people
in the world have the same pattern on
the tips of their fingers, 1t is easily
made useless by the wearing of gloves
or by having the finger tips deliberately
defaced, says London Answers.
But the newer system will battle even
the wariest of burglars. The network
of tiny veins on the back of a mans
hand is as much peculiar to himself
as the patterns on his finger tips. The
chances are billions to one against two
mems hands showing the same arrange
ments of veins.
The photograph is taken after the
hand has been allowed to dangle down
for q minute or two. so that the rush
of blood may make the network Of
veins stand out prominently. One
scientist has suggested binding the
wrist with a tight bandage for the
same purpose.
The advantage over the finger print
system Is that no one can attempt to
alter the arrangement of the veins
without running great danger of bleed
ing to death.

PAROLE BY O'NEAL

Montgomery, November s.-(Special)
Governor O'Neal today granted parole
to Sam H. Bailey of Opelika who was
sentenced several years ago to life i'm
prisonment for the murder of Dave Allen.
Bailey had been attmpting to secure
parole for a number of years and it was
not until after the state pardon board
and the executive had heard a dozen
petitions for clemency that the governor
acted in his favor
Governor O'Neal heard two delegations
from Lee county Saturday and made
personal investigation of Baileys former
life and his prison record.
Bailey killed Allen during fight which
resulted from business competition The
men were engaged in the saloon busi-
ness at Opelika. Many persons appealed
for Baileys release, while other citi-
zens of Lee county told Governor ONeal

should not be released. The state board

SERVE TWENTY DAYS

jackson, Miss, November s-(Special)
One of Uncle Sans soldier boys, Mike
Allen. member of the local military COM
pany. who was engaged along with sew
eral others as guards on the state fair
grounds, turned out to be one of the
slickest of the slick-fingered gentry and
while his brother soldier boys were
wrapped in the arms of Morpheus he
was appropriating their property to his
own use.
Shoes, clothing, pistols and other arti-
cles disappeared, night after night, and
the members of the company were up in
arms. They knew there was thief
among them, but it took time to locate
him. and 1t was finally decided Allen was
the man. He was arraigned in police court
today, charged with various and sundry
thefts, pleaded guilty to some of them,
and was given 20 days on the county
farm.

Prohibition Leaders Among
Most Prominent in EC-
pousing His Cause
EVERY SECTION OF
STATE JOINS HANDS
Campaign Formally Organized Dur
ing Past Week and Leaders for
Various Counties Rapidly
Being Chosen
By HUGH w. aonERTs

There can be no longer solitary
doubt in regard to the result of the
senatorial campaign in Alabama.
The election of Oscar w. Underwood
fs assured. That his victory will come
with landslide majority is apparent
In every section of the state Ala
bamians have rushed together enthu-
siastically determined to promote Mr.
Underwood to the Senate. 1t is gen
orally recognized that the sole issue Of
the campaign is one of fitness.
"Commission the man." Mr.. Under
wood has urged. who. in your opinion,
can best serve YOU
This is the clarion call that has been
Issued and to which Alabamians in ev-
cry section. in every county. are heart
lily rallying.
Second Signal Failure
The astute politicians at the head of
the Alabama Anti-Saloon league in at
tempting to make prohibition an issue
have scored a signal failure.
So apparent has it been shown that
prohibition is false, a fake. fic-
titious issue. that men who in the past
have manned the guns of Temperance
and stood stolidly with their con-
sciences In moments of victory and de-
feat have, without hesitation, aligned
themselves with the great leader of
democracy. the right-hand man of the
chief executive of the democratic
party, in whim has been and Is still
reposed the hope of the admnistra-
tion's ultimate success
As matter of fact, ardent prohibit
tonists, evidently determined to ex-
press by their action .repugnance at an
attempt so palpably to play politics
have taken prominent part in the lead
ership of the Underwood fight
In every committee which has been
named prohibitionists are prominent
and it begins to appear certain that the
great majority of those men who have
figured as captains in prohibition bat
Ties of this state are prepared to ex-
press themselves favorably In regard
10 the election of Mr.. Underwood.
Consider Men on Their Merits
The voters of Alabama. therefore, are
considering the men on their merits.
What have they accomplished in Con :
gress? Who has been faithful to his
trust? Has either been unfaithful to
duty? Who wields an influence in the
congress of the natfon2 Does either eX-
ert no influence among his collea CUES ?
Can the Influential man in whom his
associates repose trust accomplish more
for Alabama for the nation, than can
the uninfluential man?
Who deserves promotion at the hands
of the people?
And there are still other questions
which have been considered and an
ewered In such positive tone that there
is no longer a shadow of doubt as TO
the outcome.
Mr.. Underwood is the leader of the
democratic forces in Congress. He is he
author of the tariff bill He is the di-
reot representative of the administra-
tion of President Wilson. He is hon
ored throughout the nation. and the
only criticism which has been directed
against him came from one of his col
leagues. out of the mouth of AN Ala

Talladega Strong in Faith

1t is true in Alabama that you cant
fool the people all the time.
There Is no county of the state more
strong In the faith of prohibition than
Talladega county. There are in the
state no people more intelligent than
the people of Talladega county.
If prohibition was the issue in the
senatorial fight, those people would
know 1t, and would support the man
who is trying to make it an issue.
They are supporting Mr.. Underwood.
The anti-saloon politicians may have
served the cause of prohibition. Cap
Ntain Hohson may have served the cause
of prohibition. But neither has been
more faithful in that service, neither
has been more consistent in that SER
vice than those staunch prohibitionists
who are leadin gthe Underwood fight in
Talladega.
There is Kelly Dixon, II. L. McE,-
derry, Senator Thomas S. Plowman, T.
r. Williams, S. p. Mcdonald of Syla
cauga and others.
Reception in TalIadega
Mr. Underwood has just returned
from Talladega. He was received thei e
with open arms. Friday night he de-
livered an address His audience was
larger than any other which has gath :.
cred for poll ical purposes in the re-
cent history of the community An
Underwood club was organized with
Kelly Dixon, S. P. Mcdonald. 7. r. Will

The club is composed of militant
members. They are fun of fight. Yes
terday afternoon the leaders met and
organized every beat in the county
There was never certain doubt fol-
lowing the announcement of Mr.. I'M
derwood as to how Talladega county
would vote. 1t is now positive that
no future development can change con-
ditions there.
You can't defeat the democracy of
any community when its factions are
welded together in amity and concord
and imbued with a fine spirit of pa
triotism and love for their state.

In this regard another thought has
injected itself into the political discus

present prohibition as an issue?
The answer comes in the form of an
other question
