Decatur, June 3.-(Special )-B. B. Conner, candidate for governor, deliv- cred his first speech of the guberna- torial campaign in Morgan County at Hartselle today to an audience of less than two hundred.
 He was introduced by Judge O. Kyle, of Decatur. His speech of two hours was listened to attentively, but tn- voked but mild applause. He made one of his characteristic speeches on rail- road rate reduction and declared in favor of better schools, Confederate pensions, and local option.

The book of experience is the highest priced book" He told how he had commence ed life as poor farm boy and now he had made a success as farmer, mer- chant and manufacturer. He declared that George Jones, of Montgomery. as- pires to run the State. He made the charge that he is a man of only one idea He said: we have agreed on these questions of schools, pensions, etc, and said for this reason he thought 1t useless to discuss these questions. He said he favored immigration but was opposed to child labor and to coolie labor.
 'There is one thing we are not agreed on, and am glad we are not, whether the people rule the State or the rail- roads rule IL, SalQ ne. T1e SdNO HIS usual comparison of the Alabama and Georgia freight rates. There are but two questions in this fight" he de- clared, "One is liberty. the other slav- cry" He paid a tribute to W. J. Bryan and said he hoped to see him lead the Democratic party. Tt is said they spent five hundred thousand dollars to defeat me before. shall these things be. If they should be then let us tear down the old Confederate flag, the civil war was fought for less cause than this.
 There is no greater danger than for foreign capital to come in and say we will run those things" He spoke at length of the Texas railroad rates. Amy law that railroads don't want they call a drastic law. The Texas IS all right for Texas but 1t is too dras- tic for Alabama The law we fought four years ago is invalid, so we now stand relegated back to the law or 1881"
 He asked the farmers what they would ask for the cotton if they had the power to fix the price the same as the railroads of Alabama have the power to fix the rates. One farmer said S5 a pound.
 we surround ourselves with law and competition but we allow trust to come into our midst. we shoulo change the old adage, Alabama, here we rest. to Alabama here we rest no more until this Is changed. He paid his com pliments to The Montgomery Adver- tiser.
