Honest government and fair elections Is
what every good citizen of Alabama de-

to longer exercise the right of suffrage

belt welcome the dawn of a new era in
Alabama.

If the Ex-Governor is sincere about not
wanting to be Governor again, what is
it that he does want badly enough to be
willing to again revive dissensions and
discord in the Party and stir up the pas
sions and resentments that had almost
entirely disappeared? He must think that
another four years in the Governors office
will land him in the Senate.

asked?

Truly It will be the dawn Of better
and brighter day in Alabama when the
people at the ballot box-with true and

and time servers and serve upon them
in no uncertain tones the notice to get

after. This they will do when they nomi-
nate Governor Jelks to succeed himself.

The great issue Is the carrying into eff

The people will think that 1t will be

cast their votes for Governor Jelks.
