ny will N. sheehan.

Alexander City Aug. 14-(Speeial Cofrespondence.)-- Lieutenant Govern or R. M Cunningham today pitched his single-handed fight for Governor in the hills of Tallapoosa. He has set aside swo days to talk to the voters of Tal- sapoosa. and he will do it in four speeches.
 This spectacular fight. waged by one man against a rich and powerful ma- chine, has won the interest and sym- pathy of the Alabama voter. The Ala bama voter believes in lending a help ing hand to the man who fights gamely and well against the big odds of q n1oneysd organization, and the loyal support of capitalized interests" This is enc reason why Cunningham is niak- ing votes 90 rapidly.
 The campaign he is making Is so dif- ferent from what the people were ex- pecting They had been told that pr. Cunningham was going to be supported by the railroads ard the corporations of the State; that d big campaign fund would bc raised for him. and that q hired press together with hired speak CTS would go about singing his praises. And none of this happened. somebody had prophesied falsely and those who believed were deceived.
 In one thing there was some truth. A vast amount of money has been used in the campaign. But pr. Cunningham didn't use 1t. Ana there is only one otaer candidate for Governor.
 Dr Cunningham today. in the pres. euce of an audience of 150 citizens of Tm.lapoosa County, denounced the use Of money, as 1t Is being used in Den- oeratlc frimary
 We have come upon strange times said Dr. Cunningham. The door of su haAn EhIIf In the face of the poor man and no oppor- tunity is open for him in public life. Do you know that it would require ', ss ,0o0 to send a single letter to each of the registered voters of the Statey To send out three of these letters would re- quire sls,o00, to say nothing of the other heavy expenses of the cam paign.
 ator Morgan or Senator Pettus would not have been financially able to hays made this race for Governor? doubt whether there is a single Alabama Con- eressnaan who is able to run for Gov ernor under conditions that exist m Alabama. I tell you that could afford Ro spend $15,000 of my own money to make this campaign. but I'm not going Id do it It would put me next door yc being ir debt and I'm not going to do it.
 His Own Campaign.
 My campaign IS before you l am it. This is my campaign--to meet my fellow citizens face to face and discuss with them the issues of the day. have no other campaign"
 pr Cunninghanf's denunciation ol 4ha whoIesale use of money in Ala bama politics made a deep impression upon his hearers It caused them te think to look first upon this picture and then upon that. The Conner cam. naian and the Cunningham campaign were put side by side and compares and the new era that mas neen usn cred in upon Alabama was gauged anS estimated.
