In speaking of the action of the county executive committee in refusing to order direct ~nte for senator, Chairman Frank : ..lee Iss -s the Morgan campaign com
 last nfght
 .9uis act ion on the part of the John son supporters on the county executive HaHuittee in denying the people of Jef- 4 eu The right to express directly their choice as to who snUuid represent Alabama in part in the United States senateS is Ia confession of the governors weakness be- fore the people of his own county, and can but injure his cause not only in, Jeffer- son but throughout tine state By the plan adopted opportunity is given for each citizen to vote against any candidate who is before them except Governor John ston.' a1
 'The people will not overlook the fact" continued Chairman White. 'that John ston's friends had complete control of the executive committee and are responsible for its every act. Experience in past cleo tions in Jefferson county shows that there is a large conservative vote that will be cast against any candidate whose friends undertake to trammel the free expression by the people or are guilty of any unfair ness in the methods employed It will be difficult for Governor Johnston to convince the people that there is any reason why the people should be permitted to vote directly for candidates for governor and that the same rule should not be applied to him.
 As to the result in Jefferson," MT White said, from the reports received by the To- cal Morgan organization from all parts of the county we are perfectly sangune that an overwhelming majority of Morgan dele gates will be returned to the county con- yention."

FIGHTING TO GET
 THE CONVENTION
Kansas City and Milwaukee Are
 Struggling Earnestly.
BOTH CITIES MAKE CLAIMS
Milwaukee Boomers Think the Conven- tion Should be Held in Wisconsin in Order to Influence the
 Large German Vote

Washington, February 21.-On the eve of the meeting of the national democratic committee, which assemblies here tomor- row to fix the time and place for holding the democratic national convention, Kan sas City and Milwaukee are struggling earnestly for the honor of entertaining the convention. Although there Is some desul- tory talk of Cincinnati as a compromise, the fight is between Milwaukee and the metropolis of the southwest, with the chances tonight seemingly ravoring the lat ter city. Both cities have headquarters at the Raleigh hotel. Milwaukee has raised a fund of S1c0,000 for the entertainment of the convention. The amount which Kan sas City is prepared to expend nas not been committee, is holding aloof from the fight, and not throwing the weight of his infiuA ence on either side.
 The Milwaukee boomers are making much of the political effect of holding the con- vention in Wisconsin for it's effect upon the Germans who, they assert are disposed to be hostile to the administrators ex- pansion policy. After counting votes to- night Kansas City claimed a clear majori- ty of these, but the Milwaukee contingent were equally certain that they had a ma jority. The consensus of opinion Is that the convention will be held before the re- publican convention, early in June, or possibly during the last week in May.
