If you would continue the peace, the
quietude and tranquility which we now
enjoy all over our Alabama, vote for
Governor Jelks and the other candidates
who are understood to be in political &C
cord with him in reference to the new
Constitution There is dissatisfaction and
strife in vote for the opposite ticket.
Let us have peace.-Clarke County DEM
ocrat.
Joseph F. Johnston while in Cullman
stated that he expected to be counted out
and II he was he would bolt and run in
dependently. This shows the truth of the
contentious that he is preparing in adj
vance for a bolt. His following here are
doing the same talk. Mark the predic-
ton: That this will be their course when
defeated in the primary.-Cullman DEM
ocrat.
1t will be landslide and it ought to be.
Jelks should be reelected, or should
have been without opposition. Johnston
had the Office twice and says he don't
want it now. The people will not burden
him with it either, for third term. He
is the only man ever cheeky enough in
Alabama to ask for three terms as Cover
nor.-Dothan SiftngS.
The Democrats of Jackson County have
made up their minds as to who should be
nominated for Governor and large ma
jority of them are for Jelks to succeed
alarmed at the bombarding from the
Johnston guns just on the heels of the
election. It's the drowning man who
makes the last struggle.-Stevenson
Chronicle.
Captain Johnston takes the unfair and
untenable position that because some
white men refused to pay their poll tax
DISTINGUISHED them. lie might as well
say that because some men refuse to re-
pent and believe, and are consequently
lost, the plan of salvation has sent them
to destruction. The cases are exactly
parallel.-Roanoke Leader.
Voters should not forgetithat a vote for
Johnston means just that much aid in
tearing to shreds the new Constitution.
If Joe Johnston gets hold of affairs he
will turn everything to the purpose which
Is animating his actions now, amending
the Constitution at every point possible
and laying schemes for a seat in the Uni
ted States Senate. Don't fail to consider
these things.-Lafayette Sun.
Which shall it be, the old time manner
of things, when you had to elbow your
way among a horde of negroes to get to
vote, or the new order. when there are
no negroes voting? This is the question
for you to decide. If you want the old
order. stay at home or vote for Joe john
stOn. or II you prefer the new order. go
10 the polls and vote for William d.
Jelks and the new Constitution will be
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Courier.
Johnston has no other plea for his can
didacy than a personal ambition and
grievance, and his following simply want
him to be the political boss and dish out
called the outs and they want to get
in-thus we have a hot political fight on
our hands. The Jelks people are fighting
for principle and good government, and
into power without a principle or grounds
for their claims Demopolis Dispatch.
