Hon j, G. Manning, president of the
Southern Ballot Rights league and Popu-
list leader of Alabama, said: "Kolb has
been twice elected governor, but although
tho Alabama legislature refused to allow
him q contest law, and has deprived him
oil his seat, he Is greater than the governor

ment In Alabama which is slowly, steadily
and surely destroying corrupt govern
ment. He could cause revolution now,
and get followers to march to the capitol
but we will let congress march on Oates
and his ballot box suffers, and we want
public sentiment and outraged Justice to
rise and bury him and his cohorts. Tho
opposition to us are the anarchists. We
are the conseryators Of peace and the party
attempting to uphold justice. The ex-
ecutive committee will do nothing radical
