Birmingham Ledger.
 There Is always a probability that Q man may die. There is always, a cer. tainty that men must die when old. There is no undue push in this matter if the successors to the Senators are named to the Governor directly by fha people The duty to select Senators is as important as the duty to elect a Governor and Lieutenant Governor to. succeed him in case of death or dis. ability. We have to elect Senators, and we may as well do the work completely while we are at 1t and express to the Governor our choice for successors t0 the Senators. If there shall be no va cancy, no harm is dons. If there shait be vacancy and the Governor is forc- ed to submit to the pull" of friends and business associates and party asso- ciates and the claims of men who elected" him. This can be avoided by a primary.
 we believe that the people should choose their Senators with deliberation, and there is no reason yet presented why the duty should be left to the Governor. if there should be a\vacancy in the four years following the elect ion of Morgan and Pettus. The Eena- tors have expressed no opposition to the people selecting their successors in case of vacancy.

WOMEN ARE HELD
INCREASES ACCUSED or KILLING
 GROVER BROWN.
Mary Perkins and Annie Williams Re- manded to Jail Without Bail By Justice ,. N.
 BroWder,

Mary Perkins and Annie Williams, the negro women charged with the murder of Grover Brown, young white man, at the grounds of the Ringiing bros. circus on November 24. we're yes.sraas held to await the action of the Mont- gomery County grand jury ana co"D mitted to jail without ball.
 The preliminary hearing was nelo before Justice J. N. Browder, who, TOT a number of weeks, has been connneo to his room on account of illness. Ihe evidence was purely circumstantiai, ana the testimony of the negresses was simple denial that they killed Grover Brown.
 The slaying of this well-known young character of Montgomery was one or the peculiar incidents in Montgomery criminology. Brown had figured in police circles much in the past nVe years. He was generally supposed 10 De partially demented. On the day or the circus, he was almost continuously in the company of J. c. Humphries, citizen of Fillmore County. Humphries bears an excellent reputation. except for the fact that he is drinking man.
 At the circ IS grounds the men met the negro women who had followed the circus to Montgomery. They went to a secluded spot near the circus grounds. No one knows what happened there. Brown is dead and Humphries was probably too drunk to realize what occurred, A ehot was fired and Grover Brown died.
 No one was at hand but the negro women and Humphries, and the testi- mony of the negresses was that Huin- phries did not fire the shot.
 The hearing was held in the office of Justice Browder on Washington Street.
 Humphries was released from cus- tody several weeks ago.

 Mrs. Mary W. Motion, q prominent and esteemed woman of Montgomery, died at o'clock yesterday morning at her residence, 715 Adams Street. She had been III only a few days with la grippe, but, owing to her advanced years, she could not withstand the at- tack.
 Mrs. Motion was connected with some of the foremost families of Mont gomery. She was 73 years old and was born and reared in Montgomery where she spent the greater portion of her life. For some years past, how ever, she had been residing in Tallasses and it was only few months ago that she removed to Montgomery with her son from Tallassee.

POLITICS IN COUNTY
THREE AvOwED CANDIDATES IN
 RACE FOR SHERIFF.
Messrs. Belser, Taylor and Powell Will Try for Place fn Menfgomery County and Others
 May 0Mer.

No sooner had the tocsin of political war in the State of Alabama been sound ed by the State Democratic Committee than political skirmish lines were thrown out in Montgomery County.
 At present there arc no announced candidates save for the office of sheriff, but for this important and lucrative position three candidates are now in the field and are making an active can vass. The announced candidates are Jack Taylor, hale and hearty farmer from Beat Is; George M. Powell. a deputy sheriff, who has numbers of friends in Montgomery, and Sam $. Beliser, deputy sheriff, who is widely known throughout the county.
 All three of these men are widely known and will make good races. but it is understood that there will be other Richmonds in the field Many are claiming that Capt. W. D. westcott, ex- sherin, and well-known citizen, will enter the lists.
 Of the three announced candidate. Mir Taylor has always been a farmer and Democrat. He has never held public ofice. but has always been man whose support was solicited in county affairs.
 MT Powell has served several times as deputy sheriff and taller under vari- ous sheriffs. He Is universally known and respected.
 Mir Bslser has been a very active deputy under Sheriff W. R. Waller. He is an expert criminal catcher and has been prominent business man of Pike Road. He has a wide family connec- ton In the county and a number of warm friends.
 All three men are sturdy Democrats. They are making an earnest and active canvass.
 There seems to be little interest as yet in the other county officers. There are no mentioned candidates even with the exception of Hon. Tyler Goodwin. who. It is said, wants to go to the State senate, and Alderman Adoiph Roenner wno wants to be a Representative in the Lower House.

FARMERS LEAVING
GREAT CROWD FROM ALABAMA
 GOING TO NEW ORLEANS.
All s0uthbound Trains Last Night Were Crowded and Many Leading Cit. fsens of Montgomery in
 the Party.

Delegates to tho mass meeting of Southerners in New Orleans which be- sins today passed through Montgom- cry last night in large numbers from all directions. Montgomery seemed to be 2 concentrating point for Ala bamians headed for the convention.
 All day long the southbound trains which came through the city on the Louisville and Nashville Railroad gave evidence of bigger passenger loads than at any time since tho holidays A special train was made up here last night and left crowded to the limit about 10 o'clock. This train was made up largely of Alabama delegates.
 The regular southbound Louisville and Nashville train No. 3, was also crowded last night as 1t pulled out very near on time.
 For the last day or two Montgom- erians intending to go to New Orleans were seen hustling about in search of Pullman car accommodations. Many waited too late to get the coveted berths but did not balk at the idea of sitting the weary night out on the ride to the Crescent City
 President W. H. Seymour, of the Alabama Division of the Southern Cot ton Association, has already been in New Orleans for a day or two and he will no doubt see that the Alabama delegation Is favorabiy seated in the convention hall. He had before leav- ing Montgomery Tuesday, worked up much enthusiasm with the assistance of subordinates in the Cotton Asso- ciation and the attendance from Ala bama is expected to equal. if not excel that of any foreign State at New Orleans.
 Commissioner R. R. Poole. of Agri- T,nl stria. G Adams, chief clerk of the Alabama Department, was among the crowd which departed last night for New Orleans. Others in the same throng were Rev. N. B. Williams, acting sec retary, and D. N. Armstrong, of Elba, field agent of the Alabama Division.
 The New Orleans convention this year is not strictly an assemblage of the accredited members of the South ern Cotton Association but has been purposely termed mass meeting of Southern farmers and business men. This fact seems to have drawn from this section at least an extra large delegation as 1t Is believed questions vital to Southern prosperity are to be deliberated. The forces of the Cotton Association are recognized to be the backbone of the gathering but the convention is open to all who have manifested an interest in the matters to be discussed.
 The Montgomery delegation which left for New Orleans last night was as follows:
 Secretary Charles L. Gay. Montgom- cry County Cotton Growers Associa- tion; NJ. c. Scott Rev. N. B. Williams. J. B. Walter, D. ". Underwood, J. R. Warren. Dr. A. St. c. Tennille, c. G. Abercrombie T. R. Mccullough, E. B. Chestnut, s. M. Collins. w. q. Jones.
 Large delegations from Union Springs headed by S. R. Rainer: from EufauIa headed by Capt. S. H. Dent. and from Verbena headed by $. E. Gull ledge. accompanied the Montgomery crowd last night.
