A number of Democrats in this city
profess to be surprised at every eau
Gus and convention that q slate has
been prepared by the party leaders,
and that the slate is ''put through
That has been the program in that
party for years, and the only way to
escape ring rule is to quit the party
We are happy to say that there is q
remote possibility that few Demo.

authorities this year, but those who
are doing most of the kicking now
will jump back into line before cleo.

King would be taken from Jail at night
and hanged or shot to death by mob.
The letter stated that preparations were

from the prison and got aboard They
We're accompanied by the sheriff. The
trio proceeded to Fulton, where they
boarded train for Nashville.

chanan in committing Kings sentence
to imprisonment for life. Immediately
after the sentence of King by the su-
preme court his wife began her work in
his behalf. The friends of David Poston,
the man whom he had murdered, pre-
sented petition to the governor pray.
ing to let the law take its course. This
was signed by some of the best people,

walks of life. The federal court refused
to interfere and Attorney Harland was
taken into the case.
