the natural secretions which the

1t has long been known that the va

The perfect freedom to eat what you

the Mullen hotel brass band played
on the street outside the hotel, and fol-
lowing his reception, escorted him to the
county courthouse.
Owing to the immense crowd that as
sembled to hear Mr.. Underwood speak,
the popular House leader had to make
two addresses one from the balcony of
tho courthouse to the thousands gathered
in the street blow, and the other in the
court room. This room was packed with
the largest crowd that ever assembled in
the courthouse, according to citizens of
Dothan. The gallery was also thronged
to its utmost capacity, and many peo-
pie were compelled to stand. Others, un-
able to secure standing room, remained
outside the courthouse
Met by Committee
Mr.. Underwood arrived in Dothan at u
o clock last night, and was met at the
train by a committee of prominent cit
izens Those who met him were Mayor
Joe Baker, Ben f. Reid B. G. Farmer,
A. Y. Malone and f. r. Malone

day, and assisted in Introducing the hun

large audience in the courthouse, e. II.
Hill, prominent lawyer of Dothan. was
loudly applauded when he referred to
the city's guest as Alabama's noblest
and greatest son, one of the greatest liv-
ing Americans"
Mr.. Hill spoke only five minutes, but
his Introductory address brought forth
tumultuous applause as he referred to
the work of Mr. Underwood.
'Dothan and this county are honored
today because we have in our midst one
of the greatest men in America he
said.
HE has been a servant of the people
for nearly quarter of century, and
he has never deserted his trust. He has
been true to himself, true to his con
stituency, and true to every ideal of
Christian civilization"
Running Upon His Record
Mr. Underwood spoke for one hour and
30 minutes, and was given the closest
possible attention. He declared that he

In answering Captain Hobson's charge
that the representatives who remained in
Washington We're CHAIR warmers, Mr.
Underwood asked If his hearers would ac-
cuse the late Senators Morgan and Pettus
of being chair warmers"
Refers to Morgan
For 80 years Senator John II. Morgan
was your representative in the United
States Senate. Did you ever hear of him
going off on a lecture platform when his
people needed his services? Or did you
ever hear of that grand old man, a hero
of two wars, Senator Pettus, deserting the
firing liner
Mr.. Underwood explained his absence
from Congress on two occasions, one time
last summer when the House was in re-
cess, and later when the tariff bill was
passed, when his doctor ordered him to
take a few days rest
In closing his address, Mr.. Underwood
spoke frankly to his hearers. Il want to
be your servant as well as the servant of
my people in the Ninth district" he said.
''And If you send me to the Senate
