DECATUR DEMOCRATS MAD Report of the Advertisers Smell ing Missionary Resented. HAMPSTEAD USED To Boost Cause Which Had No Hope of Car
 rying Morgan County-JohnSton
 Stro. ger Than Ever.
Decatur, March 14.

Decatur March 14. To the State Herald:
 The Advertisers little scheme to bol- ster up the lost cause of it's own and that of Mr Clarke in Morgan county, es- pecially Decatur, has made the Johnston forces stronger in their faith that their leader would triumph over all opposition in the end.
 The people of Decatur resent with great indignation the efforts of the Ad- vertiser to besmirch the good names of some of our best citizens, who held and managed the primary election in Decatur last Saturday, such as $. T. West attor- ney; w. c. Preston, w. E. Wallis, J. Walker Tyler and others equally prominent in this city. These men have lived here for years. MT. Tyler repre- sents the Standard Oil company here, MT. Preston is a man whose character Is above reproach, MT. MT. Wallis is livery man with a good business and the son of a prominent planter and capital ist of Lawrence county, Kirk Wallis; and he married the daughter of Judge E. H. Foster of Lawrence county. And MT West-well, who don't know the jol- ly, good lawyer, s. T. Vert of Decatur, & man at the head of his profession in Alabama, prominent both in church and state. Does any set of men believe for a moment that these men could be in duced to commit such overt acts as the Advertiser attempts to charge them with? Surely not At least nobody who knows these gentlemen believe it, the puny effort of the Montgomery Adver- tiser to the contrary notwithstanding. Away with such stuff. In order to help q sinking cause they drag into this slum the name of one of their chief supporters, who Is sick and has been for weeks, Dr. l.. H. Grubbs, in an unenviable way; and they get on their list Frank Harris, son of Capt. Jack Harris, of Nashville, Tenn. who never voted in Alabama in his life. They also secure the name of H. G. Barnwell of Chattanooga, Tenn, not being voter here, another travelling man; and E. S. Morrow, minor, never having voted and will not be old enough to vote in August next.
 This looks like fairness, doesn't 1t? If the gentleman had been defrauded, and so palpably as they claim, why did they not go before the proper tribunal and vindicate themselves as becometh men, and not go smelling around under such dark and doubtful collars-as ap- pears to be their chosen way to correct an evil. What nonsense. l am surprised at the Advertiser getting down so low Granting all they claim does not change the result, and it would still leave the county for Johnston-aganst them by 2 to 1.
 The people have spoken in thunder tones in Morgan, as they are likely to do in other counties. against the Advertis- CTS methods of doing things in Alabama.
