 shall. as briefly as possible, discuss the position of my opponents. Hon. J. rom Heffin has been candidate In so many and such varied forms as to need no introduction; 1t seems that he has become almost, If not altogether, pro 1essionai politician: since he has recently developed into the self-constructed ad- wiser to the State-at-large as to national affair, and his invited himself to deliver numerous orations in different sections of the State advising Democrats whom they must or must not nominate for the Presidency. The Democracy of Alabama has existed and managed its affairs for many years without MT. Hefiins advice, and his presumption in thus gratuitous- ly thrusting it upon them, is without a parallel in the history of the State. MT. Hefin has served in the Legislature; was a defeated candidate for the State Sen ate; twice defeated for Congress; was member Of the Constitutional Convention; and, after an arduous campaign was nominated and elected Secretary of State, an office he now holds while again ask ing for a seat in Congress at your hands. It, therefore, appears that MT. Hefin Is not only a politician, but an unsuitable office seeker as well. He not only mounts the good roads gull horse." and proclaims that as a member of the Con- sttutional Convention. he materially aided in the reduction of the tax rate. AS we all favored lower tax rate, Mir. Hef1in has no advantage over the rest of us, save in his having mad. an opportu- nifty to vote in the convention for 1t.
 But I emphatically deny that the people of this State are indebted to MT. Hefiin for the reduction of the tax rate, or that he either originated it or secured its passage in the Constitutional Con-, vention. It is a. well known fact that
The Montgomery advertiser., 1904-04-03

Hon. Cecil Browne of Talladega, chair man of the Committee on Taxation led the hght for such reduction worked out It's Feasibility, and carried 1t through his committee and the Convention. And if MT. Hefiins silver tongue was over wagged In advocacy of the measure no one ever heard of 1t before.
 am Tt loss to discover what possible bearing MT. Hefin's favoring limiting State appropriations for the education of thep negro to taxes paids by the, negroes can have on his, candidacy for Congress. Congress does not appropriate a dollar toward the education of either white or negro children. So this question is for etgn to the issue.
 It seems to me that MT Hehin should resign the office he now holds before seeking another, and ,nat haYing been elected Secretary of State he should eith- CT spend his time in attending to the du- ties Of an office that he Is sworn to dis charge, or resign, In this connection I call attention to the fact that his broth CT MT John Hefiin. is a candidate for Solicitor in this circuit, and yet another brother is candidate for Solicitor of Jefferson County. a position he now holds and l merely wish to inquire whether tLfrc are any more of the family who want offices
