AN ATTORNEYS OFFER.
Col. D. S. Troy, prominent attorney Of
Montgomery Ala, one of Gov. Jones
strongest supporters, has recently published
caro- IN viii h he says that the time for dis
honest elections in Alabama has passed, and
IN the future there must be no more OF it. He
also offers gratis his professional services to
| prosecute any vlolator OF our election laws.
The truth is and GOV. Jones knows it, that
the methods used by many of his friends
| IN the election of 1892, by which he
was traudulently elected, have brought
his party into disrepute and caused the per-
petrators OF this great crime to stink in the
nostrllS of all honest people of the nation.

GOV, JONES REPLIES TO KoLB.
Montgomery Ala, March 27-To-
night an Advertiser reporter showed
Gov. Jones Capt. Kolb's letter to Sena-
tor HOar The governor said of course
he was not going to convert the Massa-
chusettes Senator into d court to pass on
the Alabama election, but he would
take occasion to show to Capt. Kolb's
republican allies the base hypoc-
raCy of this ballot manipulator's
ballot, and his former prominence in the
work Of destroying republicans ana re-
pub lean ballots. The governor said Cap.
Kolb and his leaders had manufactured
many falsehoods about his att 1ude on the
contest business, but he thought the peo-
pie know the man too well to BE- miSled.
Still. as Capt: kolo had repeated one of
Senator HOar, as he himself had received
one or two letters on the sub ect
re emily, he would now speak OF them.
He recommended a con est bill at the SEES
sion OF lo9O-9l, and he repeated that rec
ommendatiOn in his message after the
election in 1892 He had never uttered
any thought or wish to the contrary TO
any human being buthad always insisted
on proper contest bill, If for no other
oS0n banausp it, XvouT0 shOUy the 11ffau
falsity of Capt. Kolo's course
SICK WHEN THE BILL WAS Up
He was very i'll when the legisl allure
convened after the recess and during the
whole term the bill was under discussion
! ia the Senate, vas una lie to sit up, read,
or transact any business. He had been
informed the Gav the bill passed the Sen
ate of some incongruous and unConstitu-
! tional provisions. He was able TO sit up
for the first time thai day and he saw no
one about the bill and made no sugges-
ton whatever about any action on it.
That night, President Compton of the
Senate called TO make friendly visit |
was glad to see him, but he did no5 come
at my instance. He informed me that it
had been determined to reconsider the
bill"
In the conversation with Senator Comp
( ton, in which the governor stated he
wan Gu d INSg Gll4 ld4I L'4ALs tlC LUZ btIbI
said: He had been candida for a sec
ond term much against his interes and
wishes, and solely from a sense Of
duty 10 the party, and that he was not at
all anxious to continue in the ohce. This
was after the senators had agreed to re-
cousider the bill which was done without
his kno Wedge or agency. "Ehere was
plenty of time afterward to draft bill
Every senator who talked with me,
knew thab [ desired the Dill to be per
fe95ed and passed. The Senate bill which
was recommended was so imperfect
that even its author moved to recon-
nit il, to cure it of 'incOngrui-
ties, and on his motion, it wac
re ommitted. When therefore, Capt. Kolb
states that | opposed a contest bill, or
used my influence TO prevent the passage
OF any decent measure and only gives car
roncy to per ersion OF the truth, wnich
frs appeared over year ago. But of
course, nothing better could be expected
from him"
