Birmingham. Ala. Oct 13 (speciaD-The tele-
graphic announcement that William F. Aldrfch,

months because of strike that brought on
by few restless and meddIesome spirits to whom
he has long been friend and benefactor and 1t is
believed by those who are best informed that It
would be decided hardship for him to enter upon
another campaign with the almost certainty of a
contest because OF the frauds which are always
practised in Dallas County.
There Is method in the madness of the Dallas
County gang So long they by any species
of fraud and chicanery, secure the certificate for

can only keep enough of this money for his board,
and has remit the rest to them to pay them
for their fine work in his behalf. This is stated
an actual fact by Democrats who know the ropes
