ALABAMA BANKERS OPINION.

ALABAMA BNNKEHS CPINION.
]. B.. Wadsworth, banker of Gads-
den, Ala, gives the following testimony
to the success of prohibition in his.
state:
"'The common masses of the people are
the beneficiaries Of prohibition. They
have the money that formerly went for
liquor to pay rents, buy clothes, shoes
and groceries, send their children to,
college, etc., etc. Thousands of wage
earners now have them who formerly
had no bank accounts. The economic
feature is marvellous. Cost of officers,
police, judges, etc., is reduced to
minimum

A PAT Statement.

One Of the dry campaigners In Mich
igan struck the keynote when in ad-
dressing the employees Of Detroit au-
tomobile factory he said: "If the sa-
loon tends to make men and women
and boys and girls better citizens and
more efficient and capable, then no de-
cent man will vote dry; but If the ten
dency of the saloon and the liquor traf-
fic Is to make them less capable and
destroy homes and ruin character, then
every clean, decent man will vote dry"

GROSSLY EXAGGERATED

Allegations as to Treatment
Of Sick Sailors.

The official report on the investiga-
ton into charges OF improper treatment
of sick sailors on the naval hospital
ship Solace declares the charges to be
grossly exaggerated and much untrue.
After interviewing more than 100
men who were aboard the ship during
the period covered by the complaint,
the commission, composed of DIR. VII
liam H. WEIGH, Johns Hopkins Uni
versity, and DR.. Abraham Flexner and
Nathan Strauss of New York, reported
that:

feet that they received what they

with an unprecedented emergency, and
in handling it they acquitted them

DEVELOPMENT ERA
SPREADS OVER STATE
Prosperity Brings Movement
Of Building and Ex-
panSOn
More Surplus Capital In City, County
and State Than Ever Before

A building movement Of no small
proportions began In eastern South
Dakota some five or six years ago.
and is gradually extending westward.
The past rear It reached Huron, Red
field, and Jim river valley towns and
farms where q considerable amount
Of good building is now In progress.
whenever this development occurs
property prices are on the increase.
the locality is prosperous and progress
sive, new people r coming In and
life takes on an added interest.
Conditions Indicate that the time
and opportunity for such q movement
has about arrived In the country ly-
ing between the Jim and Missouri
rivers, particularly In the Rec Valley.
The demand for farms to rent In this
locality has grown steadily for the
past Ave years until today the supply
is wholly inadequate. New people
are coming in asking for farms to
rent, on shares and for cash. The
opportunity Is here for land holders
to improve vacant lands and either
secure good renters, or have a better
opportunity to sell at advanced prices.
And Il is the generally expressed
opinion of men In touch with farm
lands that the demand for improved
farms at considerably increased
prices will exceed the former demand
for raw land as a speculation. This
demand likewise includes an oppor-
tunity for resident land holders with
large acreage to divide up their farms
and build additional improvements on
smaller farms.
In the city Of Miller dwelling
houses are scarce and in demand at
fair rentals, and more building is a
necessity.
These are the primary conditions
that start general growth and deve-
lopment of a community. The other
necessary condition Ia prosperity.
And that is also present, ne may be
readily seer by any one who investi-
gates. The Official statements OF
Miller's three banks, published last
week in this paper, shows their de-
posits have passed the million dollar
mark for the first time In the city's
history. Better still, the further fact
is shown by these statements, that
a half million dollars of these depos-
it's is In time certificates, indicating
that the people OF this locality. The
I city Of Miller and immediate terri
! tory, has q large surplus OF profits
extra capital with which to expand
and improve.
Here we have all the necessary
conditions for a forward movement
In the growth and upbuilding OF this
locality. All that is now needed Ia
! the progressive spirit and determin.
alton OF citizens to push forwards
desire to do things and the nerve u
accomplish. Il
The best investment OF any com
munity is development, both for the
individual and the community. Our
vacant lands r crying aloud 70,
more people to make them useful
!. our vacant city lots could be mads
into happy and prosperous homes
. our business street a accommodate
dozen new modern f~ire-proof buai
ness houses that would pay a GOD
rate Of interest or the investment
We have the surplus capital 10 ae
complish these desirable results q

REGISTRATION

Last Tuesday the 9Th, was re.
gistration day, and 1888 regis
tered in the City, and more than
/, 700 in the whole county.
Knox county has always done
her part when the country called
upon her for assistance. In the
war of 1848, when Mexico had to
be Spanked" she sent some of
her good men to the front; in
the years of 1S60-'61, when the
immortal Lincoln said t h s
country should continue a Union.
Knox county sent more
than her part of the soldiers
to keep the flag of t h i S
Nation in the air; in 1893, when
Mckinley sent out the call two
companies of he best and bravest
rushed to arms.
In this year, had President
Wilson sent out the call for vol
unteers, we are sure that Knox
county would have come to the
front with more than her part of
the men to go to France .4sa1ld
there to lay their lives upon the
alter of their country.
Out of the LOO we are told
that there will be selected about
300 who will be trained before
they depart for the foreign lands,
let them be whoever they may,
they will make the kind of SOL
diers that it takes Ito win the
battles of the land of the free
free and the home of the brave.
We have already many who are
in the service, some went as
volunteers rather than 60 as hav-
ing to be conscripted. Twenty |
four left last Sunday night with
Captain Dishman, and out of
that numder 81 passed the ex-
animation and were accepted and
sworn into service.

He went to the Baker home
yesterday morning, taking his
license with him, and told the
girl she had to marry him. and
she and her brother began to
protest, when Rains pulled a re-
volver and began s h ting
at everything in sight.
