CAMPAIGN OPENING
County Democrats Held Enthusias-
tic Meeting Last Night Many
Prominent Speakers Here.

The Democratic campaign opened
In this city last night under auspicIous
circumstances. IL had been duly ad-
vertised and by 8 o'clock the opera
house was completely filed with ladies
and gentlemen; who took great inter-
est in the meeting despite the oppres-
sive heat.
At O'Clock tho Young Mems DEM
ocrat club, numbering some twenty
members, neatly arrayed in white
duck uniforms, assembled at head
quarters, from where they marched
TO the Cobb Hotel and gave an exhi-
bition drill that was q credit to the
young exponents of Democracy.
They formed In line and headed the
procession from the hotel to the opera
house and escorted the speakers to
the stage. The club carried banner
on which was inscribed: "Young
Mems Democratic Club; Equal Rights
to alI-Special Privileges to None"
A few minutes after o'clock, Judge
Davenport, chairman OF the meeting
and candidate for congress from the
Third district, stepped to the front Of
tie platform and In his usually happy
manner formerly opened the campaign
in a neat and able manner for the
Democracy Of Craig county.
At the conclusion of his remarks,
Mr. Davenport introduced Hon. E. J.
Hobby, who is the Democratic nomi-
nee for representative of Craig county,
who made a good talk, and among
other things said that he hoped the
Democrats would bury the Republi-
cans so deep this fall that resurrection
would be impossible. Mr.. Hobby in
troduced A. P. Watson, candidate for
corporation commissioner, who spoke
for half an hour and greatly interested
his hearers. He is good, common
sense speaker, and his remarks had
a sound Democrat ring that kept his
hearers deeply interested from start to
finish.
At the conclusion of his remarks,
John B. Turner, candidate for su.
preme Judge, was introduced. Mr..
Turner is well known here as a fore
ible speaker and a Democrat of the
jefferson type. He has the happy
manner of speech that captivates an
audience, and he was literally ap-
plauded.
Jesse ]. Dunn, candidate for SUI rene
judge, was the next speaker. Judge
Dunn never fails to please an audiei ce
with his logical arguments. He is a
true blue" Democrat and thinks the
party will have walkover this fail.
The Chieftaln is pleased to voice
the interest manifested In the open
ing of the campaign and hopes that it
will not slacken until the votes.are
counted after the election and every
D smocrat is perched upon the glori-
GUS banner of Democracy with a
majority that will &c down In history
as crushing defeat for Republican,
ism that canLot be surmounted in
years to come.

SANDRING ARRESTED
CHARGED WITH RELIEVING TWO
 BOYS OF &o0.
Young Men From CastIeberry Induced, So They Say, To Show Their
 Roll In . Shooting Gallery.

Edward J. Sandring Is locked up at police headquarters charged with the Him. -flamming of two young men, J. E. and J. A. Skipworth, last night about 7:30 o'clock in a shooting gall lery on Commerce street. The young men say they lost about S99 by the operation. The act Is said to have been done with a good crowd standing around both parties. a
 The two Skipworths, who are broth CTS. came to Montgomery yesterday from Casteleberry with the intention of going further and establishing a barber shop. They started from home, so they told the police. with $110 in United States bills. J. E. Skipworth was treasurer of the expedition.
 Last night about 7:30 o'clock they went into the shooting gallery with the intention of trying their marks manship. According to their story SaDdring, who was behind the counter, asked tn em if they were going to shoot and offered to bet them $50 that they didn't have a cent. J. E.. Skipworth replied that he had. Sandring said that he was from Missouri and that he would have to be shown.
 Thereupon Skipworth, so he says, pulled his pock ct b ook and counted out $50. The bet was not paid on the part of Sandring and Skipworth returned his money 10 HIS poChcL-OOOk, DIdClnk 1t for safe keeping in his inside coat pocket. He then took up rifle and commenced shooting.
 While shooting, he says, the crowd iostled him and It was then, they be- lieve, the money disappeared from his inside pocket.
 Upon discovering their loss, the young men went to the union station where they found Officer Ed Graham. To him they told their story of the loss. at the same time saying that they could identify the money by the fact that a i've dollar bill had been torn and had been pasted together with a niece of white paper.
 Officer Graham went to the shooting gallery and questioned Sandring. A crowd immediately gathered and the officer saw Sandring throw something behind a trunk inside the counter. Upon examination 1t proved to be $50 in hills. one of the fives having a piece of paper mending a tearN as. described by the Skipworths.
 Sandring was taken around to po- lice headauarters where he was locked mn. So far only $50 has been recovered, Tba young men, however, were given some wholesome advice about not showinR their money in strange, large city. They have hopes of recov- ering the remaining $4s before they leave the city.
