NEWS OF CENTRAL CITY
MEETING OF THE DALLAS
EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE.
Democrats Ask That Republicans
Nominated by Their Party Be
Appointed to Aid in Con-
o.; Quoting Coming Election.

ADVERTISER bureau,
/ Selma. Sept. g.
The Dallas County Campaign Commit
tee appointed at the last meeting of the
Dallas County Democratic Executive
Committee held it's first meeting in the
Register in Chancery's Office in the new
court house today. This committee is
composed Of the following well known
Democrats:
J. B. Ellis chairman; w. w. Burns. A
i. Mcleod. j. H. Lumpkin, NJ. J. Meyer,
H. F. Reese. D. M. Scott, F. M. Wood
r. z. l.. Mel, secretary; ]. H. Rogers,
w, l.. Kirkpatrick. w. ]. Rountree, j.
"A. Fuford, l. Matt Meyer and IL. A
Hardy. Mayor Mcleod and w. W..
Burns were prevented from being present
by illness.
]. B. Ellis called the committee to order
promptly at II M and majority of the
above gentlemen answered to their
names Chairman Ellis made a short but
pointed speech and stated the object OF
the meeting. One of the objects was, he
said, to make recommendations to the
county officials as to whom the Demo-
cratic party wanted for inspectors at the
approaching November election. Another
object was the appointment of Central
Committee, whose duty it would be to
conduct an aggressive campaign. and as
there was no enemy to fight, the purpose
of this committees aggressiveness would
be to come in contact with all OF the
Democratic voters in the various beats
and get them to go to the polls on the
day of the election. Mr.. Ellis said that
the object of the organization OF this
committee was to get out nearer lW
per cent of the Democratic vote of Dallas
County than had ever been done in any
IL. n n n
work had to be gone about in a syste-
matte manner. Different wards and beats
should be given to different members of
the committee and it would be the duty
Of the committeeman to see every voter
in the beats If necessary, and get them
to the polls on the day of the election.
Mr.. Ellis suggested that this central
committee be composed of the members
of the general committee who reside In
the city, with ]. H. Rogers and w. j.
Rountree added, and this suggestion was
adopted. 1t would be one of the duties
of this central committee to report what
progress was being made from time to
time to the general committee.
Mr.. Ellis wound up his remarks with
these impressive words: Every vote
that is cast will be counted, and no
others. Every vote possible should there
fore be gotten to the polls. we DC
not propose to have single vote In Dal-
las County contested this year. and wish
70 go on record on that question.
Secretary R. E. L. Mel then read the
following resolution, which was adopted
whereas, the adoption of a new fun
damental law through the instrumental
ty and earnest advocacy of the Demo
cratic party has brought about changeo
conditions. and no longer there turks be
meath the feet of this people a powder
