The year which has just closed has been a wonderful one in Anniston, business men of every degree being almost a unit in expressing the opinion that conditions here are much better than they were a year ago. At the same time the predic- ton for tho year 1924 will still Do better than this one just past. Prac- tically every industry in Anniston Is running full tilt at the close down period for the holiday season and many of the mills of the district are running day and night in trying to keep up with their orders. Bank deposits and clearings have shown a healthy increase in the year just ended and all the financial institu- tions of the city are looking forward with a confident feeling to another still greater business year.

pARDoN GRANTED

Acting in accordance with the unanimous approval of the pardons board, Gov. W. w. Brandon Monday ended the life sentence of Henry Holloway, Montgomery county negro convicted of murder, by granting parole to this man who for some time has been an efficient servant around the capitol.
 Although Holloway was convicted in 1910 and began serving his sen tence on August 13 of that year, 1t is stated that only one man is alive who is acquainted with the circum- stances of the crime and his trial. TNis is Wiley c. Hill, Montgomery lawyer, who wrote a letter to the pardon board on behalf of Holloway.
 In this letter MT. Hill makes the statement that he is probably the only person who can recall the de- tails of the trial. He stated in his the presiding jurist at that tme in the Montgomery circuit court. Capt. Phillip Stern, the solicitor, and John w. A. Sanford, the lawyer who de- tended Holloway, are all dead.
 In his letter of November 10. Mir. Hill recalls the fact that Holloway was sentenced for the murder of an- other negro named Jackson on MT. Hills plantation. He stated, how ever, that another negro named All len Briggs was believed to have been the one who did the actual killing and that Holloway was convicted on cir cumstantial evidence. Briggs died in prison, Mr. Hill believes.
 TO INSPECT ROAD
 Members of the state highway commission with some of the forces of the state highway department will probably be in Russell county next Monday for an inspection of the Union Springs Columbus road as it passes by Scale. An objection has been raised to the proposed routing of this road in Russell county and the state officials wish to be on the ground for a personal inspection. The state highway commission will meet in Montgomery January s, which will be the first meeting to be held since before the Christmas holidays.
