BESSEMER ID HAVE SOME HOT POLITICS Many Races to be Run and En-
 tries Are Announced JACKSON TO OPPOSE JONES Two Judges to Make Race for City Judgeship Now Held by Jones.
 Huffman and Dudley to
 Run for Clerk.
JACKSON TO OPPOSE JONES

Bessemer, October 17-Qutside of nat ionaI, state and county politics, the pros poets are that Bessemer will have an abundance of local politics next year. AL ready the post is beginning to warm and before long it promises to be boiling.
 Perhaps the most interesting contest will be that of the city judgeship. The present incumbent. Judge B. C. Jones, is to be opposed by Judge William Jackson, the newly appointed judge of the inferior court, in his candidacy for reelection.
 Both of the candidates are very popular in Bessemer and each has a large circle of friends that will help carry their end of the race. Judge Jones is serving his first term and has made an excellent rec ord as an able and impartial dispenser of justice. Judge Jackson has been a citi- zen of Bessemer for the past ten years and during most of that time has served in the capacity of notary public until ap- pointed by Governor Jelks a few days ago to the judgeship of the new inferior court, established in Bessemer by the legisla- ture just adjourned.
 Another race that is attracting consider able interest is that of the clerkship of the city court. Clerk Ed A. Dudley, the present incumbent, is to be opposed, it is said, by T. Y Huffman MT. Dudley has made an effieent clerk and has proven competent officer ills friends are legion and will not fail to do their utmost to see to it that he gets a reimbursement of his administration. MT. Huffman is a native of this district and has been prom inent in the business circles of Bessemer for a long time. He Is very popular and his hosts of friends say that they will assist him to carry his skillet
 The candidates from Bessemer who will contest in the county election will be Cap tain H. w. Crook, who is a candidate to succeed himself as a member of the board of revenue of Jefferson county Cap tain Crook is now serving his second term and his friends say that his record made during that time is sufficient to se- cure his reimbursement at the hands of the people of Jefferson county
