REPUBS WAKING UP
xorrp FOR DELEGATES TO NATION AL CONVENTION.
Scott and Thompson VIII stand Fint rooted For Roosevelt or
 Man President Wants to
 Receive Nomination.

Birmingham, April 22.-(speoial) -- The first gun in the lively contest over delegates to the national convention or the Republican party next year. VIII he fired this week. according to infor- nation that is received here.
 If ia understood that the executive committee of the fourth congressiopal district will gather at Calera- in shel- by county. Thursday. and while no statement Is made as to the purpose of the meeting, 1t is believed that steps will be taken looking to another meet, ing later on at which selection VIII ha made of delegates to the national convention.
 If ia also believed that some action will be taken by the executive com mittee in regard to the postmastershlp at Anniston. The office is being sought by four candidates, including the acting postmaster, c. R. Barker.
 That there will be lively contest Tn Alabama the coming year for delegates to the national Republican convention ia not denied. President Roosevelt has some faithful followers in this state, among them the leader, J. o. Thompson, the collector of internal revenue. who is also one of the accredited referees in this state. Charles H. Scott, who Is the Alabama representative on the national committee. is another ardent Roosevelt follower and as 1t is known that other candidates for the presiden- tial nomination than those favored by President Roosevelt will be in the race, delegates will be in demand.
 No definite statements are made as to whom the President is going to favo and that Is the only reason given why the executive committee in the fourth district might not take up national matters when it meets this week. w. w Battle is secretary of the fourth dis trict executive committee.
