SELMA
MT. McGraw Says Bowie is by No
 Means Safe

Selma July 2S-(Special. )-Wood M. Me- Graw of Oxford, Calhoun County, was in the city today, and speaking of the Con- gressional campaign in the Fourth district, states that the fight is not near over, and that MT. Bowie's carrying Shelby County. one of the six counties in the district, does not by any means make him the nominee of the convention, which is to meet in Selma on August 5.
 Mr. McGraw is a personal friend of Dr. Dudley Williams of Calhoun, and his chief lieutenant in the contest for the Congress- ional nomination. He is thoroughly &C., quainted with conditions in Calhoun. He ran for sheriff of the county in the last primaries and got more votes in the first election than any of the candidates, but in the run off the other two candidates com bined and defeated him. He is also one of the Calhoun members on the Democratic Congressional Executive Committee of the district. About the further fight in the campaign he said:
 MT. Bowie's carrying Shelby County does not by any means give him the nomi- nation of the convention. pr. Williams will carry Calhoun without a doubt, and stands a good chance of getting Cleburne. Some Dallas candidate will carry Chiffon, and at best MT. Bowie cannot go into the convention with more than 21 votes and probably only r, the votes of Talladega and Shelby, and possibly Cleburne.
 "Dr Williams was born and raised in Calhoun County and has lived there all his life. He is trusted thoroughly by the peo- pie and will undoubtedly carry the county over MT. Bowie, who has been in the coun- ty only few short years. With Calhoun and perhaps Cleburne at his back Dr. Will jams will be in the contest and will more than likely force the nomination to come his way
 NO, sir! The contest in the district has just begun, and it will take more than one ballot if not more than one convention to declare the nominee"

NOT A RACE RIOT
 SAYS ". H. COUNCIL
Prominent Negro Educator Sug- gests Remedy for Troubles
 Like at New Orleans.

Professor W. H. Council, principal of the Huntsville, was in Birmingham yesterday on his way home from Columbiana, where the District Conference of the Colored Methodist Church is in session. In speak ing of the recent trouble in New Orleans, in which the negro desperado, Charles, killed several policemen and other citizens and wounded number of others, he said:
 'tThere was not the remotest resemblance to a race riot outside the columns of the newspapers. One negro desperado who de- plorable affair. The better element of ne- groes had no sympathy for him.
 ''The lower element of laboring whites and floating hoodlum class of whites took advantage of the occasion to show their hatred of negro labor in particular and the negro in general. The negro population very properly made no violent resistance.
 "The officers of the State and city gov ernments, the Mayor, the Governor, Judges and all the best element of the white popu- lation placed their lives as a pledge for the security of the negro people there.
 This affair is a warning to the entire South. In dealing with her labor, the South must take time by the forelock. The move on law and mounted constabulary in every community to enforce impartially on black and white and wise vagrant laws will save both life and property

WANTED IN ATLANTA
Policemen Patton and Burke Catching
 Atlanta Criminals

Yesterday morning Officers Patton and Burke arrested a negro who 1t is believed is wanted in Atlanta for burglary com- mitted some time ago, and who escaped from that city after being convicted of the crime
 The negro gave his name as Will Hall, but he has quite number of aliases.
 There is quite an interesting story con- nected with the case. According to a let ter lately received from the authorities in Atlanta, the negro was arrested, tried and convicted of the crime, and while in the court room being sentenced, he made a bold and successful dash for liberty. The letter does not give any details of his sen- sational escape, and even omits to give infornation as to whether window was used as an avenue to freedom, or the door. Which ever it was, the negro proved him. self slick" citizen, and Officers Patton and Burke deserve much credit for his ar- rest.
 This makes the third man wanted in Att lanta that Officers Patton and Burke have captured recently, all of whom are now in the city prison waiting to be carried back to the scene of their various crimes.
 The other two are Bud Yancey, wanted for burglary and grand larceny, and Cleve Anderson, wanted for murder committed last Christmas. The last two were both arrested last Thursday.

 AFTER THE TAX  ASSESSMENTS
The Board of Revenue Ends
 the Second Week
WITH TWOIMPORTANT CASES
One of Which May be Accepted as a Precedent in Gases Where the Owners Drop Back to
 Old Figures

The Jefferson County Board of Revenue closed a week of hard work with mostly minor matters by dealing yesterday with two. or three cases of much general impor- tance.
 The tax assessment of the Morris hotel was raised from $175,OOO to $1S5,oOO. Last year the hotel was given in at s15O,o00;' but was raised to s775,000. This year the proper ty was again given in at $150,0O0; but the Board of Revenue, at the instance of the back tax commissioner, added $S5,oOO. Thus the commissioner receives of the addition al tax the fee he had earned. There was considerable and pafnstal1ng reflection up- on this matter of giving in property at the ratings that prevailed before last years raises. In effect it was held that to simply restore this years rating would not in- crease the county's revenue, but would be taxed with the commissioners fees Thus the Morris will pay on s1O,OOO more than it paid during the past year.
 This is suggestive and instructive in view of. the action of various property owners who put in their assessments at the old figures, with the alleged and ap- parent hope that there would be no addi- tional increase this year, but that existing valuations on the tax books would be ac- cepted.
 The assessment of the Southern Bell Tel ephone and Telegraph Company was in- creased yesterday nearly S9O,00O, being raised from s27,7s2 to 17,431. The back tax commissioner asked for an assessment of even s15O,000
 The assessment of the Birmingham Ce- ment Company was by agreement raised $12,OOO & These were the most important increases of the week; the other important cases be- ing S12,5O0 on Loveman, Joseph & Loeb's real estate and S25, GOO on the First National Bank.
 The board has been at work on assess ments for two weeks: but a great deal is yet to be done before the lists can be finish ed It is believed that most of the great cases will be compromised, as the board is anxious to avoid long and irritating trials of cases.
