tee of the State shall fill all vacancies that may occur on the electoral ticket from any cause whatever"
 The convention was an able and rep resentative body and its proceedings made a fine impression upon the public
 Speaking of it The Advertiser said:
 This important representative body of the Democratic and Conservative party of the State, after three days session, adjourned last night at a late hour.
 We can say with perfect truth that 1t was the ablest, most influential and at the same time the largest political con- vention that has assembled in Alabama since 1861. The passage of the Amnesty act having released the limbs of many of our most distinguished citizens from the chains with which they were bound, their sense of patriotism induced these able and experienced gentlemen to seize the first opportunity to render assistance in the counsels of the Democratic and Conservative party. The business of the Convention was conducted with such marked decorum and order that nothing whatever occurred to interrupt the har- mony of the party from the first to the last moment. The nominations were all made unanimous without exception, and from one end of Alabama to the other with some slight diversity of opinion upon minor questions, the party stands enthusiastically united. in support of our State officers. The selection of members of Congress at large. delegates to Balti- more and the appointment of the Execu- tive Committee and it's chairman, did not produce a single scene of confusion or one instance of incorporate discussion during the entire session of the body"
 Col. Herndon at Home.
 The nomination of Colonel Herndon for Governor was received with great en- thusiasm at his home in Mobile, and he was warmly welcomed by his home peo~ pie.
 Referring to an incident on his return there, The Mobile Register said:
 "A large number of the friends and ad- mirers of Colonel Thomas H. Herndon serenaded him last night with the Creole Band at his residence on Government Street between Hamilton and Lawrence Streets. After playing a number of airs, Colonel Herndon appeared on the balcony and was loudly cheered. He said, unex- pected as this compliment was. 1t was impossible for him to sufficiently thank his friends for this appreciation and neighborly kindness He spoke feelingly and at length of the fact that the nomi- nation was not given him as an in- dlvidual, but accorded to Mobile as long deserved and long entitled justice. It was not himself that was recognized by that convention. nor any services he might have rendered; but 1t was the em- hodiment of the Mobile idea and the

 Ashev,lle, Ala. Feb. H. 1904 MT D. W. McIver, Montgomery, Ala:
 My Dear Sir:-I am glad you are giv- ing forty years in Alabama politics. ,: These articles will be of much value to our younger men, who know but lit- tie of the real struggles through which our elder men passed in the days of re- construction. If any young man, with genuine Southern blood in his veins, will read your articles and the history of those days and then attach himself to the Republican party. he will indeed be to me, a queer creature.
 We were so much regarded by the Northern people as rebels. even after the war was said to he over for five years, and at the time of the convention of 1870. in our platform one of the first things we had to declare was that we stand ready to obey the Constitution of the United States, and of the laws pass ed in pursuance thereof, etc" ",The best men in Alabama were looked upon by the yankees as outlaws.
 Tn your article of last Sunday you might we'll have said just a little more as to what did occur on the 26th day of November. 1870. in the city of Montgom- cry, when the outgoing Republican ad- ministration refused to surrender to the incoming Democratic administration. On that day or prior thereto, "the word" in some mysterious way had gone out, throughout the State. and in response thereto there were in Alabama's Capi- tai City not less than five thousand men, in my judgment. who wore the gray. and out of that number perhaps as many as ninety- nine Der cent of thapn uvera yin- lating the law against carrying conceal

LAWYERS MEETING
CENTRAL COUNCIL OF BAR AS
 ISOLATION.
Session is Executive and Proceed ings Looking to Attempt to Disbar Certain Attorneys in
 the State Are Up.

Birmingham, Feb. 20.--(Special. .)-The Central Council of the Alabama Bar As sociation met here today, converting at 10 o'clock in the office of the Chairman, Judge Thomas R. Roulhac. Every mem- Der of the Committee was present as fol- lows: Judge Thomas R. Roulhac. Chair man; E. K. Campbell, Birmingham; w. w. Callahan, Decatur; Charles P. Jones' Montgomery; H. s. Vandegraff, Tusca- loosa.
 Several attorneys were present through Hon. Edward deGraffenreid of Greens- boro, President of the Bar Association, and Hon. Alexander Troy of Montgom- cry, Secretary. The purpose of the meet. ing was to hear complaints against mem. bers of the Association, which constitutes the lawyers of Alabama.
 A report of the meeting will be made at the annual meeting of the Association in Juno. Action will follow in regard to the disbarrlng of members against whom charges, are sustained. It has formerly been the custom that the burden of proof lay with the members of the Association. which was always unpleasant, so it is stated, but by a recent act of the Legis- lature these matters are to be turned over to the Solicitor in whose district the law yer practices. The prosecution therefore will be more active and will relieve tho officers of the Association of much un- pleasant work.
 The session of the Central Council here today was executive and but little infor- nation was given out. It Is understood that a large number of complaints were filed, the most prominent being against one or more Montgomery attorneys.
 The Executive Committee of the Bar As sociation will meet in Montgomery within the next two weeks to fix a date and place for the State convention. s. H. Dent is Chairman of the Executive Com. mittee.
 The Central Council adjourned to meet Monday, February %, in Birmingham. 4 single statement was made as to tho proceedings as follows: "The Council met in executive session and It's proceeding are not made public. It Is understood that 1t has under consideration charges against several members of the bar look. ing to disbarment. The last Legislature passed an act which confers authority up- on the Central Council of the Alabama State Bar Association to institute pro- ceedingS to disbar attorneys whenever 8 complaint verified by addavits is made by any one charging an attorney with professional misconduct and the members of the present Council have determined to make this law effective in all cases whicl; justify disbarment The Council has no authority to act in such matters unless a complaint duly certified is lodged with f. or one of its members, but whenever such complaint is made it is said to be the pur pose of the Council to see that the law f. enforced and that a man not fit to prac- tice law shall be dismissed"
 No names were mentioned publicly as having been brought up In the executive meeting, but 1t is understood that several cases are under consideration, among them Montgomery attorneys.
