 Dr. H. M. Hunter chairman of the democratic executive committee, intro duced Governor Jones in few we'll chosen words and from the commence ment of his speech the governor began to explain his side of the financial ques- tion. He said but little in regard to the two candidates for governor, yet one could easily read between the lines that Ex-Governor Jones was out stumping the state for the gentleman from Mobile.
 At the mention of Cleveland's name a cheer was endeavored, but 1t was too weak for space.
 It was amusing to the friends of Sena- we did not oppose Senator Morgan be- cause we were not so intolerant against one who was for silver and let him go back to the senate without opposition. Yet he was the one to stump the state for free silver as our reward" So strange did this sound, when it was well known that we did all i've" could to defeat Morgan. The speakerargued very strenuously that between Cleveland and Johnston the people should choose Cleve- land. And the election of Johnston by Alabama was voice against the ad- ministration

 Hartselle, Feb 21.-(Special)- l)-The Morgan county democratic executive committee met pursuant to the call of the chairman, J. A. Rountree, in Hart selle yesterday. There were fifteen pre- ctncts represented out of nineteen in the county. Chairman Rountree stated that the object of the meeting was for the purpose of knowing whether the names of Messrs. Johnston and Clarke should be placed upon the of- ficial ballot to be voted for in the primary on March '. He stated that it was his understanding and also that of the majority of the com mittee, but as no resolution was passed at the last meeting of the committee. January 3, authorizing the people to vote on the question, and that the dele gates to the state convention would be elected by the county convention hence the reason of the call of the meeting, Several of the members of the committee stated that it was their understanding that the people would be allowed to vote on the question as to whom they wished for governor.
 After a long discussion of the sub ject as to deferring the selection of del egates to the state convention and-the method, the following resolution was adopted by vote of Il in favor and 4 against:
 Resolved That the chairman of the executive committee shall be authorized to place the names of Johnston and Clarke upon the official ballot to be voted upon in the primary on March T.
 Resolved, That the chairman of the executive committee shall announce to said county convention the votes as to candidates for governor, and if any such candidate for governor shall have re- ceived a majority of the votes cast in said primary on March for that office it shall be the duty of the convention to select a delegation to the state conven- ton loyal to said candidate and in- structed to vote for him as unit as long as his name is before the convention
 The Clarke men desired to put off the election of delegates until April H. The Johnston men desired that the selection of delegates be made at the county con- vention on March 10, as was agreed at the meeting of the committee on Jan uary 3. and they wanted the people in the primary to state whom they pre- ferred by having an opportunity to vote in the primaries when county officers were voted for
 resolution was adopted not to allow any negroes to vote who had not hereto fore supported the democratic ticket.

 In every city, as we'll as the smaller villages scattered through this country, are men and women who for years have

relied upon Paine's celery compound whenever they found themselves weak and out of health. Hundreds of letters like the following from Mrs. Porter of New York city tell how this great medi- cine has kept them well and strong:
 New York, Jan. 8, 1896. Messrs. Wells & Richardson Co.,
 Dear Sirs: For several years I have used your Paine's celery compound whenever I found myself running down in health. During that time I have recommended it frequently to my friends and l know of many persons who have been much benefited by it. I am never without a bottle of it in my house. and take great pleasure in expressing to you my belief that it does a great work for humanity.
