 T have been East for some little time. and only just returned and am not just ready to give out an interview on that subject, but as soon as I have looked into the matter more thoroughly, I will be glad to give an interview"
 There Is is doubt but that MT. We'll man will nave . statement to make. AS friend of his expresses It. this state man did not call the convention, says the gentieman, and there is no need for such a convention. At the proper time . legal call will be made ad delegates to the National Convention chosen in the proper manner.
 The colored papers of Birmingham and other parts of the State are urging Re- publicans of all cclors to attend, but especially colored Republicans. Atten- ton to this fact Is called by The Times, just out. The attendance and the busi- ness to be transacted at this convention is attracting no little attention through out the country. In Birmingham leading Republicans are discussing the meeting with much concern. Those who sympa. thiEe with the anti-lily whites state that a representative meeting Is going to be all sides. The views of the lilly whites are given above. There appears to be no indication of harmony in the ranks of Republicans for some time to come.
