POLITICS IN BAD MESS.
The Democratic Party Seriously Split
In Ain bamn.

Everything is all right in Alabama ex-
cept politics. said ex-Gov. Oates to a Star
reporter today. and politics are in a bad
mess. The democratic party is seriously
split. and there's trouble in the camp.
am mighty sorry TO see II. Every effort
was made TO prevent it. our two senators
coming down and trying TO fix things up,
but to no avail
1T all grows out of the efforts of the
democrats to purify the ballot. The best
people in our state were getting tired of
the ballot-box stuffing and the troubles we
have had at election times. and cast about
for remedy. The last legislature passed
an act providing for a constitutional con-
vention, at which change should be made
in the election laws
we thought We would weed out the ig-
norant and corrupt vote, SO that the in
tellgent people could control the state. 1t
was not desired to disfranchise the negro,
but to limit his power 10 participate in
the government of the state to his capacity
for self-government. Well. the prelimi-
naries for the convention were gone
through, delegates were being selected and
all was proceeding favorably. when some
of the democrats holding high office in the
state and aspiring for greater honors con-
cluded that they did not like the personnel
OF the delegations to the constitutional
convention.
Delegates were being elected without
regard TO fractional alignment. There were
gold democrats and silver democrats, and
the people were choosing the best men for
the work in hand without regard to the
factions. There seemed to be danger that
this convention might get too great a swing
and bring men to the front who would be
inimiCal to the personal ambitions Of some
democrats in power.
AT this. Gov. Johnson made some calcu-
lations and found that. with his own adher-
ents and the aid of the populists, he could
head off the convention. He called an eN-
ira session of the Legislature and repealed
the act providing for the convention. So
there we are. We are to have no change
in the ballot laws and things are TO go on
in the same old way.
There is no doubt that had We passed a
restrictive law, wedding out the ignorant
negro vote. it would have built up the re-
publican party in Alabama. hut / never
worried about that In our state, when a
young man finds himself turning TO repub
licaniSm for one reason or another, he soon
gets a dose that brings him back into the
Old fold. The first time that he tries to
make Roadway in a primary or a ward
meeting he runs up against the ignorant
black contingent and gets enough of Ala
bama republicanism TO last him long
time, new ballot law would have eiim-
mated the participation of the undesirable
element.
Now, the republicans are getting hack
at the populsts They recall the fact that
the populsts Were always bleating with
them about the anti-democratic vote being
counted out, and yet here they find the
populists helping to defeat a proposition
which would result in counting in the re-
publican votes cast under the law.

Prisoner Admits He Stole Gold Watch
and Sold 1t.

Daniel Hart was today a prisoner in the
Police Court on a charge of vagrancy. After
hearing the statement Of Detective Horne
Judge Kfmball postponed the trial for a
week
Mr.. Horne said that May II the detective
bureau received information that Hart had
sold handsome gold watch, worth at least
$50, in jackson City for s., and, although
the bureau had made strenuous efforts to
find the owner of the watch, it had so far
been unable to do so. Hart, Mr. Horne said,
admitted that he and a man whom he did
not know went out 7th street one night
early this month, where the two became
drunk and fell asleep. When Hart awoke
he examined his associates pocket, but
found nothing but the watch. This he took.
Hart confessed to Judge Kimball that he
had served two terms in the peni,eli larry
one for burglary and the other for highway
robbery-also that he had been in the work
house number Of times.

San Francisco From advices brought
here by the transport Centennial, it is
believed that the Warren, bringing the
Colorado regiment, which sailed from
Manila on July is, and which was ex-
pected to arrive here on Wednesday, will
not reach this port earlier than Friday.
After leaving Manila, the Warren ran
up against typhooD, which battered
her up considerably, and had to face also
mutlny among the men.
AS result twenty four of the Warren
crew underwent trial and were sentenc
ed terms varying from three months to
two years, the Warren sail ng for San
Francisco with green crew Of Filipinos.
With novices to do the coal passing and
firing it is believed that the transports

that she will be at least two days long or
than was expected in making this port.
