Pardon for Fannie Bryant.

A movement has been set upon foot to secure pardon tor Fannie Bryant. col ored, who is serving life sentence Tn the penitentary at Wetumpka. Judge 5. E. Greene of the Criminal Court, of thls county, before whom the case was tried, has been officially requested to prepare a statement of the facts Fannie Bryant was convicted for her part in the famous Dick Hawes murder. In December, lSSs, UaWes who was an engineer on the
 Southern Railroad, murdered his wife ano two little girls in order that he might marry another woman. When the crime came to light and Hawes had bee1 placed in jail, having been taken from the side of his bride as they were pass- ing through the city, mob of cltiZens attacked the jail and was fired upon by the sheriff's posse. Upwards of dozen men were killed in the riot The triple murder and riot following furnished the most thrilling tragedy in Birmingham s history. It Is alleged that the Bryant woman who worked for Hawes was an accessory before the murders. Mrs. Hawes and the younger child were thrown into the lake at Lakekview with heavy pieces of railroad iron tied around their necks. It was proved at the trial that Fannie Bryant was seen picking up irons in the neighborhoOd of the South ern Railway shops near the Hdwcs home, identical with those found on the bodies She sought to hide the irons in a bag and claimed to be gathering kind- ling. Other damaging; evidence was also brought out leading to her conviction.

THE UNIVERSITY OPENS
WILL BE LARGE
 THIS SESSION.
Dommandant Elmore Orders. Fitting Ceremony in Memory of the Dead x President-Cadet Officers
 Named.

Tuscaloosa, Sept 1s.-(SpeciaD-The University of Alabama opened its doors this morning for the fall session. and the the exact number of pupils present cannot be told at present as the old men are not 'equred to matriculate, the new men be- ng the only: ones to go through this for mality. At noon sixty-five new men had registered and there are large number of the old men present and few of the law class have yet registered. The total enrolment will about equal, if not exceed, that of last year, which was one of the largest openings in the history of the university. Dr. Wyman. the President, has impressed 1t upon all who have de. sired to enter that they must be prepared to stand the examination or else fail to enter the university this year. There Is that this year will be a splendid ore for the State seat of learning
 The following list of cadet officers has been appointed and all nave accepted: Ca s. H. Bailey, Quartermaster; William H. Mitchell. Sergeant Major; Theo. H. Jack. Quartermaster Sergeant; Cecil H: Young. Drum Major; A. M. Donohoo, Hospital Captain; Harold P. Sawyer First Lieu tenant: Joseph E. Shirley. Second Lieu tenant. Co. B. John W. Fielder ,Jr:, Cap- tain: Gesner T. McCorvey, First Lieuten- ant: Marvin w. Phillips, Second Lieu tenant. Go. C, John D. Mcqueen, Cap tain; Jonathan R. Thomas, First Lieu- tenant, LOUIS V. EtenheI, second Lieu tenant Cadets John I. Guice, Robert J. Raney and Pat H. Robertson were ap- pointed First Sergeants for Companies A. B, c, respectively. Other non-com- missioned officers will be appointed later in the session.
 The following from the university, whose handsome buildings and valuable library were wantonly destroyed in 1865 by Colonel Croxton, is one of the strong est evidences that so far as animosity Is concerned the people of the South have buried the past and are loyal as those who in the war between the North and South followed the Stars and Stripes and that they sincerely mourn for the man who Republicans and some times Federal soldier did more to reunite his country men than any man in his party This is significant that the President of the uni- versity, who decided the issuance of the order was a professor of the institution at the time of Colonel Croxton's raid the comfnandant who wrote the order is son, of, a Confederate veteran and served in the Philippines as an officer of . the 29th United States Volunteer Infan- try.

If, on the other hand, tnis 04H, I9,, stitution Is rejected, 1t will practicaliy be a decision to change our present sur, frage laws by some wise plan, submitted to the people without any other op1ec- tionable clauses, new officers or em6ar- rassing features and be adopted by them as an amendment to our present Consu- tuition.
 That majority of the Constitutional Convention feared that the instrument they had prepared would not be acceptable to the people is shown by several significant facts ,,i,ne 0ne is that the sr, Convention caniest ovsr sitse tSe election or to direct the appointment ot single official opposed to ratification at each polling place, and by voluntarily ex- tending the terms @ of the snetins s,nd srow .wo the tax assessors and collectors and county commissioners, whose terms are 10 expire at the same time, and given, with 1t was done for no intelligent man need ask.

 Under 1t the State has made steady-nay, rapid-progress, in education, manufac- lures, population and wealth; never more so than at the present time ana Tor several years past. Why should we make general and drastic changes when we are doing so well? Capital under stands our present constitution and IS flowing in under it. Shall this How be checked while 1t waits upon the con struction and watches the effect of a new constitution. Shall we tempt Con- gross to reduce our representation? Shall we excite ill will where friendly feeling is so necessary to our progress?
 The issue is not between two factions or two parties It is between two con- stitutions-both Democrat tic: one tried for twenty-five years, giving equal protection to every citizen, prohibiting special favors. imposing equal burdens, encourag- ing education, Inviting immigration, fos- tering enterprise and defying just criti- cism except as to the one single ques- tion of the suffrage: the other new, un- tried. complex, prolix, unconstrued, au- thorizing many new offices, effecting no reforms, creating a most vicious machine, and planting the suffrage on more danger ous and insecure foundations than now exist.
 Exercising my right as an elector of the State. standing firm in the ranks of the Democratic party that have served for more than thirty. years without one break in the record of my loyalty, seek Ing and desiring no office or reward. con, sidering only the good of the State and the prosperity of the people who were my comrades in war and my neighbors In peace, yielding to every other citizen his unquestioned right to follow, without abuse his honest convictions, I shall stand by the old constitution and vote against the new.

They are for Jelks.

The announcement in The Atlanta Con- stitution from Montgomery that General George P. Harrison would probably be candidate for Governor came as a sur prise to Selmans. Your representative today talked with a great many of the prominent politicians and business men of Selma and while all of them spoke in the most complimentary terms of the distinguished citizen of Lee. yet not man in all that were heard to express an opinion said that he was for General Harrison. The consensus of opinion was that Governor Jelks would get the black belt delegations.
