The congressman was referring to the record of one of his opponents, former Governor Emmett O'Neal who, he charged. preached through the north and at Tuskegee institute sermons Against lynching for any offense known N the south.
 The speech was made to several hun- dred people, dozens were unable to get into the building, many were sitting in the windows, while the doors were crowded. Applause reached its height when the congressman referred to 'I.acy's Pine Box. and said that "the referee in bankruptcy wa snot chasing the pine box" Men whistled and yelled when the congressman said that he t ould defeat the "old referee in bank diptcy on May Il by majority of FJ,000 votes" He charged O'Neai was N citing votes under false pretense by going over the state opposing the Vol stead prohibition enforcement act; that he could nod put one drop of beer or wine in Alabama, because of the strin- gent state laws regarding 1t.
 REFERS TO RUSHTON
 He told the crowd of an experience meeting" he had in Jasper last Mon day, when his Montgomery opponent" was compelled to stand up and indorse his action in shooting negro in Wash ington many years ago, when the ne- gro insulted a white woman" Ray Rushton was in the audience" he said. land stood to his feet and indorsed my l. action" MT. Heflin charged that a ' N yorker for his opponent in Coffee coun- Ky had said he had done nothing in Washington but shoot negro. He mem toned this and said he did not want to bring the matter into political campaign, but was forced to by his op- ronent.
 ''The referee in bankruptcy says that I ought to have pushed the case and de- handed a speedy trial" said Congress- man Heflin. T was indicted by jury that had negroes on it and would have been tried by a jury with negroes sit ting on 1t, and what white man would want to be tried by negroes? I have punctured his bubble and made him mad. The referee in bankruptcy made a speech at Tuskegee in my old district, to Booker T. Washington's school, on the subject of lynehng. He took the position that he hoped to see lynchings stopped for all crimes He made that same speech all over the north I have stated that when black brutes stor committing the crime that leads tc lynchings, then the white men of the south would stop hanging them, and not till then.

3 Do You Pay Your Bills Promptly? {
It's Up To You

PRACTICALLY all of the merchants of l this city belong or cooperate with MERCHANTS CREDIT ASSOICA- TON.
 They have a common clearing house through which they clear your purchases and your payments. At any time any mer- chant can find out how much you owe and how you have been paying.
 This association was born to KILL THE DEADBEAT. Its object is to eliminate the undesirable "charge customer" who has made it a habit to abuse credit and to encourage and assist the "charge custo- mer" who takes care of contracted obliga- tions PROMPTLY.
 Every individual who has ever applied for credit with local merchant is rated. These ratings run from PROMPT PAY, GOOD CREDIT," on down through va rious grades to "REQUIRE CASH" which is self-explanatory.
 YOU HAVE A RATING. That rating is accessible to every merchant in the city. When you apply for credit that rating is looked up-and whether you get that credit or not depends entirely upon whether you have been paying your bills or not.
 It's entirely up to you. The making or unmaking of your credit lies entirely in your own hands.

The referee in bank ruptcy! Who ever heard of Alabama sending referee .n bankruptcy to the United States Senate. On the morning of May F, the referee will walk into his office and ask for his mail, and sii down to his desk and go to work or his $10000 job. He will never get chance to go to Washington as senator"
 GOES INTO COTTON QUESTION
 Mir Hefiin spoke at great length to tho farmer on the cotton question. He stated that he had studied the cotton question in the south for the past sixteen years and showed where his knowledge and ex. perience would be of great value to hin in the Senate, and he could take up tho great work of helping the southern farmer. that Senator Morgan had left off He stated that the cotton. industry 1T the south had not received the proper compensation that it should have re ceived, based on the amount of labor that the southern farmeT had given to it. Ht cited his experience in the New Yori cotton exchange, stating that the ex change was robbing the southern farme' of his cotton, grading the cotton il twenty-eight different grades. wher' there should have been only eight ol nine Frequent applause greeted the con gressman while discussing the cottoI question. He said he considers cottor the best product in the world. and th' south the best place in the world to grov it in, and that when he goes to the Sen ate he is going to see that the farmer gets his fair and profitable price for thu staple, for Wall street will not dictate a to what it shall be sold for

A NOTED man, whose name we can't "A recall just now, once said: "PROMPTNESS is not only duty, but is also a part of good manners; it is favorable to FORTUNE, REPUTATION, INFLU- ENCE and USEFULNESS; little atten- ton and energy will form the habit, So as to make it easy and delightful"
 You can take this same expression- sub- stitute "PROMPT PAYMENT OF YOUR BILLS' for "promptness" and still hit the nail on the head.
 "PROMPT. PAYMENT OF YOUR BILLS IS NOT ONLY A DUTY, BUT IS A PART OF GOOD. MANNERS; IT IS FAVORABLE TO FORTUNE, REPU- TATION, INFLUENCE and USEFUL NESS" And it might also be added that PROMPT PAYMENT OF YOUR BILLS is ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY to for tune, GOOD reputation, influence, etc.
