An Opinion From Alabama.
-----

       The following speaks for itself and is very appreciated especially since the writer is a gentleman of wide observation and practical, business experience:

       Jackson, Ala., Oct. 11, 1907.
The Democrat, Marlin, Texas.
       I congratulate you upon your most up to date paper.  We get it twice a week and have visited your town and know the size, and I consider it the most up to date paper for the size of town in existence.
                                                     Yours, truly,
                                                           W. W. Boyles.
