WILL SWEEP STATE
President Johnson of Sylacauga Com
mission Says Dry Spell Has Injured
Cotton Badly in His Section

T. p. Johnson, president of the COM
mission of the city of Sylacauga. while
in Birmingham yesterday expressed the
belief that in the general election next
year Henry d. Clayton would sweep
the state for the Senate despite the
fact that Congressman Hobson has al
ready been campaigning for a year.
''There is no doubt" stated President
Johnson, but that Senator Johnston
had Captain IIobson beaten in 40 diff
ferent ways. The anti -Hobson strength
will rally to Clayton and Clayton has
much strength of his own. Hobson
during his campaign, made one ap-
peeranee in Sylacauga and his political
speech delivered In a church on Sunday
was, in my opinion, a disappointment
even to his friends in Talladega
county"
Mr. Johnson, who in addition to pre-
siding over the commission of his city
is a farmer, declared that on account
of the continued dry spell, the cotton
crop had deteriorated in his section of
the state 20 per cent.

DALLAS FARMERS
DESIRE TO BE SHOWN

Montgomery, August 26.-( -(Special.)-I is
not always the man from Missouri who
has to be shown. There are people in
Alabama who are equally as inereduous,
and this fact was clearly demonstrated
today when party of farmers and mer-
chants from Marion Junction passed
through Montgomery in two automobiles,
en- route to the farm of Bennie Owens,
who resides near Eclectic in Elmore
county. Reports had reached the ears of
the prosperous planters around Marion
Junction-and Dallas county is famed for
It's successful farmers-that Benne Owens,
the phenomenal corn grower of last sea-
son, expected to make four bales of cot
ton to the acre this year, and-well, they
wanted to see for themselves.
Owens last year sprang into fame by
growing something like 250 bushels of
corn on one acre of land, and for this
feat his name was heralded throughout
the country. But this year conditions, it
is said, have not been conductive to corn
growing, and Owens has turned his at
tention to cotton.
And now the report is out that Owens

DURING THE PRESENT MONTH

Montgomery, August 26.-(Special.)-S
enty thousand people of Alabama worked
on the public roads of the state on good

by j. A. Rountree of Birmingham, secre-
tary of the Alabama Good Roads asso-
