Col. H. s. ID. Mallory, Chairman, Talks of Probable Procedure in Matt ter of Contests Appealed to
 Partyss Supreme Court.

n. Democratic Executive Committee, has been attending Circuit Court in Marion this week. In answer to the query or your correspondent relative to the meeting of the Committee to take up the contest as between Givham ana Howell for Tax Assessor, and Evans and Harris for Circuit Clerk, MT. Nal lory stated that the Committee was called to meet last Tuesday, but de- ferred in deference to the wishes or the attorneys, and that he would call the Committee together about the first of September.
 The Chairman anticipates that busi- ness of much importance will doubt less be taken up by the Committee as the result of those contests. Hereto fore he says, the State Committee all ways exercised a supervisory and ap- pellate position towards the counties, and unless good reasons are shown would doubtless continue to do so. The main question, however. now is to adopt party laws to blend with the State laws governing primaries, and whether the courts. district. circuit and State committees shall be made courts of final Jurisdiction on matters invelv- ing their direct supervision, which may cause a complication of interests and possibly a conflict with the new laws governing party primaries. And again, if the State Committee takes cogniz- ance of these appeals it may finally re- suit in a continual sitting of the Com mittee, and as no pay Is provided bus mess would go unattended to.
 The writer is informed that the Per- ry contestants have employed some of the best legal talent in the State, and will make a strong fight before the tha discussed but little. some say 1t ought to be dropped for the best in- terests of the party, and others claim that the new law guarantees fairness and If wrong was perpetrated 1t ought to be rectified.
 The trial of Julius Glass and Joe Glenn Tuesday charged with selling whiskey in the dispensary district of Uniontown, attracted considerable at tention. The plea offered by the de- fense was that Uniontown had enact ed no ordinance regulating the sale of whiskey under it's new dispensary law. The plea was sustained by the court and the defendants discharged. It was stated that had the case gone further the constitutionality of the dispensary law of Uniontown would have been at- tackled on the grounds that proper pub llcation of the dispensary law had not been made. It is held by the attorney that this opinion does not affect other dispensary districts of the State, espe- cia1ly those inaugurated prior to the adoption of the new Constitution. The Uniontown law Is practically the same as that of other dispensary districts. but 1t is claimed the defect was the No appeal has yet been taken. but is anticipated. It Is rumored that an eff fort will be made to enjoin the Union town dispensary from further operation until the matter Is settled.
 Congressman Underwood paid his regular annual visit to his Perry con- stituents the first of the week. Con- trary to his usual custom to meet and shake hands he delivered a very able address and received many conBratula- tions. He stated that while there are differences in many important blanks of the platforms of the two great na- tional parties, the campaign will be waged on the personality of the two leading candidates. Says Roosevelt represents imperialism and has already overridden the constitution in several instances and is grasping for more power. He would break the social bearings and invade the sacred fire sides of every Southern home. That
 
 sippi was a penitentiary offense. but the President is the head of the law. no such action was ever before taken nor anticipated and no provision made for his punishment. He expressed himself quite sure of Mir. Parkers election, whom heN,lassed as the very best man the party could have nomi- mated.
