 Huntsville. Sept s.-(SpeciaL)-The Re publicans of the Eighth District have de- clared their intetion of. nominating can didate for Congress to run against Judge Richardson in the November election.
 Calculating with the result of the Au- gust Democratic primary In this district as a basis, it is shown that the Republi- cans have no possible chance to win. The total registration In the Eighth District was 2l, ,4OO In the primary election of August a. Congressman Richardson re- ceived 9.954 votes being nine-tenths of the vote cast in the District. It is esti- mated that at least 5000 of the registered voters failed to pay the necessary poll tax and the white Republican vote of the dis trict cannot exceed 1.5o0 votes. This &C., counts for 14.50o of the registered votes. leaving 5000 unaccounted for. If the Re- publican candidate should receive all of these in addition to the regular Republi- can vote. he would be 1.600 short of the vote Judge Richardson received at the primary. The Democrats of this District have no fears of successful opposition and wish that other districts were as safe as this.
