 Selma, Sept. g. There has been a little flutter in local politics the past few days. 1t became known two or three days ago that Mir. Iheo Lacy would resign the position of Circuit Clerk of Dallas County. and some others then started out to secure the plum, which. while not as juicy as it might be, Is a nice little pickup. with very little work to do. The applicants for the position are Messrs Crawford Phillips T. W. Barker, Ex-Tax Assessor, and j. H. Nunnelee. These msn have been hustling around after signatures to petitions and letters to the Governor. and when the resignation of Mir. Lacy, which is still in the hands of his friends, is handed in Governor Jelks will have q mass of complimentary literature to read about the different men who are asking the favor at the hands of Alabama s ChiC9 Executive.
 No doubt Governor Jelks will weigh carefully the testimony that each one presents and will then take all of the circumstances surrounding each appl:- cant into consideration and will appoint one of the three. It is right nice lit- tie three cornered fight and all three of the men have a host of friends who would like to see their particular favor ite waltz off with the plum.

Protest is Made Against the Selection of Francis Baker for
Judge.

Scranton. Pa. Dec. 13.-The conven-
ton of the American Federation Of
Labor held three sessions today and
disposed of more business than on any
previous day of the meeting.
One of the principal features of to-
days proceedings was the refusal Of
the proposition to increase the number
of vice presidents from six to eight.
A resolution instructing unions to
hold aloof from the militia Of the sew
eral states was tabled Strong Ian
guage against the militia in times of
strikes was used. The convention de-
cided to increase the per capita tax Of
national and international unions from
One-thiTd to one-half of 1 per cent per
member per month, and also organized
to raise the per capita tax of federal
and local trade unions from to 10
cents a month for each member, the
Increase Of . cents to go toward the
raising of a defense fund for those
unions.
Contrary to expectations the special
committee having charge of the ques-
ton of autonomy did not make its re-
port at the opening of the morning ses-
sion. The committee on law presented
a large number of resolutions.

dozen delegates for and against the in

and the proposition defeated.
These resolutions were adopted:

feated

These resolutions were also adopted:

United states against the confirmation
of the appointment of Francis Baker as
