CAMPAIGN ON IN EARNEST.
Fight Over Alabama Constitution
Will Be a Hard One.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, Oct. 9.-The cam.
paign involving the adoption of the pro.
posed constitution for Alabama will
open this week in earnest, and it prom
ises to be very spicy one. The cleo.
ton which will determine the issue is
almost two months away and, if the
rival campaign committees keep up the
pace they have started, a world of ora.
tory, energy and interest will be ex.
pended by both sides.
The headquarters for both of the cam
paigns have been located here. Hon.
Oscar W. Underwood, member of con.
gress from this district, is managing the
campaign for ratification, while General
Charles M. Shelley. former congress
man from the old Fourth district, is
leading the fight against the movement.
They are TWO Of the most adroit politi-
cal generals in the state and effective
organization on both sides is assured.
Both factions appear to have gone into
the campaign with implicit confidence
of success.
General Shelley's strongest ally is
former Governor Johnston of this city.
There is a very large Democratic fol-
lowing behind Messrs. Shelley and John
ston, and any serious thinker on the
subject of Alabama politics is talking
idly when he beittles their strength.
Very few Democrats are found who
are entirely satisfied with the new con.
sUitution, and especially with the suf-
frage provisions, but the conviction that
it is an improvement on the old consti.
tuition appears to be growing rapidly,
especially in the white counties, and it
would undoubtedly be a safer bet now
that the new constitution would be rati.
fed than it would not be.
