CUNNINGHAM'S SPEECH
 MADE MANY FRIENDS
Hon. John c. Forney Also Makes Ad- dress to Veterans at Sulphur
 Springs.

Jacksonville, August n.-(Special)-1t is generally conceded that the address of Acting Governor R. M. Cunningham be- fore the confederate veterans at their seventh annual reunion at Sulphur Springs yesterday evening was one of the most able and appreciative that has ever been delivered on the reunion grounds. Governor Cunningham s address was elo- quent, scholarly and deeply patroitic He reviewed the various crisis, political and bellicose through which our country has passed and made a very lucid and schol- Rrly exposition of the causes leading up to the war between the states amply vim dicating the act of secession and state sovereignty.
 The striking personality and genial dis position of the man made many friends for Dr. Cunningham at this place and his address Is one that will long be remem- bered
 Governor Cunningham was followed by the Hon. John c. Forney of Birmingham, who Is in an able address paid a high tribute to southern fortitude. His address showed careful preparation and rare Dratorical ability. While in Jacksonville Governor Cunningham and MT Forney were the guests of the Hon. H. L. Stevenson.

GREGORY GETS TEN
 YEARS SENTENCE
CulIman Case Will Be Carried Up to Supreme Court on Constitutionality
 of Lusk Bill.

Cullman, August 11.-(Specia1.)-Mil M. Gregory was found guilty of murder in the second degree and sentenced to the penitentiary for ten years by jury in Cullman circuit court last night. Greg ory killed Bill Mann in the road in front of his (Gregorys) home on Christmas eve day 1902 and has been tried several times in the Cullman courts and has been to the supreme court of Alabama three times on as many issues. On the former trial he was given twelve years in the peni- tentiary
 The case will again go to the supreme court, and a feature of interest is that one of the points on which 1t will go up Is to test the constitutionality of the Lusk court bill. MT. Lusk himself is one of the attorneys for the defense. Solicitor Almon has been assisted in the prosecu- tion of the case by J. B. Brown, ". T. l.. Cofer and s. J. Griffin. The defense was in the hands of John A. Lusk of Mar shall county, George H. Parker and F. E.. St. John. The case against John and Ed McLendon, father and son, for assault with intent to murder is being tried to- day. They are charged with assaulting MT. William Felktns a merchant of Eel kins in this county last fall.
 The Hon. Jesse Stallings of Birming- ham will address the Parker and Davis club of Cullman on the evening of Au- gust 19 at the court house. The Parker and Davis club is increasing in member ship and will do much good for the cause of democracy in this county.
 The Commercial club of Cullman will meet at the court house tomorrow night and perfect permanent organization. It Is very likely that the temporary or ganization will be made permanent. The temporary officers are: Frank V. Tilford, president; John Sufferer, secretary, and B. M. Kinney, treasurer. This organization will prove of much value to Cullman and the people are taking considerable in- terest in it's advancement
