To the State II.


To the State Herald:
In conformity to the action of the state
democratic executive committee. this
(Cleburne) county will hold her primaries
on next Saturday The county conven-
ton. to which delegates are to be elected
that day to meet at Edwardsville on
Wednesday, the 18th instant, will be COM
posed of eighty-one delegates, and will be
practically solid for Hon. Joseph F. john
ston for governor. The county has four
votes in the state convention, all OF which
will be instructed for Captain Johnston.
There are only small number of single
or gold standard people in this county.
and even they favor the nomination of
Captain Johnston, because they believe
him to be the strongest and best man
the democracy can offer. He will poll the
full strength of the party and draw large
ly from other parties in this county IL
nominated. Very respectfully,
w. A. PORTER.

JAMES B. DELL,
Jackson.


ScOtISDofO, April y.
To the State Herald:
l write to give you my opinion as to the
result of the Johnston and Clarke con-
test In Jackson county. Our precinct
meetings to elect delegates to the county
convention on the 18th comes off next
Saturday Our people are taking more
than ordinary interest in the contest.
Clarke's friends have been diligent. and
have left no stone unturned, but we will
bring Jackson county up solidly for John
ston Not a Clarke man will be in the
delega ton from Jackson. Our precincts
vote eighty-three in the aggregate. OF
this number Clarke will get twenty-sev-
en- and Johnston fifty-six.
The following are the boxes which /
have given to Clarke: Bridgeport, 3; Ste
Venspn, 8: Kyles Spring. 3; Bass 4;
Nashville, ]; Gross Spring, q; Collins, B.
making 27
The remaining precincts are all reliably
for Johnston. Some of these, given to
Clarke will be close, and Johnston may
gain some of them. Yours truly,
j. E. BROWN.

Marengo.

DemOpOIIS, ApflI
To the State Herald;
The outlook in this (Marengo) county
is very flattering to Captain Johnston.
Our convention is composed of sixty-six
delegates, therefore requiring thirty-four
for choice.
Johnston's friends claim that he will
go to Linden with thirty-seVen, against
twenty y-nine for Clarke. Clarke's crowd
has flushed the county with the long
green. We hear of lots of votes having
been bought at $40 to $40 a head. They
seem to think that on the merits of the
two men Clarke would lose.

M. We'll Stands by Johnston.

Mr.. Marcus We'll, well known First
avenue merchant, another Johnston
man, was set down by the Clarke people
as another change to Clarke. As soon
as he learned 1t he went to the Clarke
club and gave information that he had
not changed; that he was still for john
ston, and although sound money man
would vote and work for him on Satur-
day. Mr.. We'll was informed at the
Clarke headquarters that Mr.. Carter had
been told that he was one Of the changes.

10 the State Herald:
Our democratic county convention Of
Chiffon county is composed of sixty-three
members and, in my judgment. there is
no doubt but that delegates favoring the
nomination of Captain Johnston will be
chosen, and solid Johnston delegation
will go to the state convention. Yours

To the State Herald:
Our democratic county beat meetings
and convention for Bibb county will be
held according to the call of the state
committee.
We have eleven beats in the county,
and the convention will be composed of
eighty-five delegates Out of this num-
ber Johnston will get at least sixty-two
and Clarke twenty-three. This is most
favorable calculation for Mr.. Clarke, and
there is no doubt that Joseph f. john
ston will get the delegation from Bibb
to the state convention for governor.

Warning of Bogus Tickets.

The following communicate ton, address,
ed to Johnston managers and leaders in
every beat in this county, was sent Out
yesterday:
Birmingham, Ala, April 8, 1896.
Dear Sir: / have Just learned on re-
liable authority that bogus tickets have
been sent out to the various beats with @
view of misleading voters and thus COM
passing the defeat of Joseph f. Johnston,
Jefferson's candidate for governor. The
plan is as follows The tickets are head
ed just as the Johnston tickets are, to-
wit: Johnston delegates to the county
convention, but under the heading they
put the names of the Clarke delegates
instead of the names of the Johnston
delegates. Read every ticket carefully
and see that not only the heading Is
right, but that the names of the proper
delegates are on the ticket. Yours very
truly A. o. LANE,
Chairman Johnston Campaign Commit
tee."

will be seventy-five delegates in the

Capt. Joseph F. Johnston Will have not
less than fifty-five or sixty. This is the

nomination are not claiming more than

To the State Herald:
Absence from home prevented an ear

dates for governor.
Captain Johnston will get six ont Of
the ten delegates to the state ccnven-

whole ten, but this policy is contrary to
the precedents of the past here, and Is

Madison.

HuntsViIle, April 3.
To the State Herald:
The county convention of democrats
of Madison county will be composed of
112 delegates. The canvass is practically
over and there is a tremendous tide for
Johnston, who will get at least ninety
delegates, unless all signs fail The
maximum of possible delegates for
Clarke is seventeen as it now looks, and
there can be no material change from
this The eight-day canvass of Ex-Gov-
ernor Jones has proved a farce

Mr.. Mcqueen to a State Herald repre-

for Captain Johnston, and could not see
how anybody could have gotten hold of
anything to make a statement to the
contrary.

To the State Herald:
The Shelby county convention will be
composed of 106 delegates, and with the

now certain 1t will be, the strong proba-
bility is that Captain Johnston will have
a majority. This Is the result of recent
changes from Clarke to Johnston.

SHADES Of good old ANDREW JACK
soNl Did he ever think that Demo-

nate a Populist for the Presidency ?
That Mr.. BRYAN is one OF that ilk is
shown by The Louisville Times. Speak
ing Of him 1t says:
"He was elected to the Fifty-second
Congress and reelected to the Fifty
third as a DenOcrat. He declined to
stand as a candidate for reelection to
the Fifty-fourth, serving notice that he
preferred the ranks Of the Populists
because Of their free silver views, and
his temperance in a Democratic Con-
ventiOn would be a matter Of much
surprise at this time had not the Popu-
list element gained control of the
Democratic organization in Nebraska"
