BANKHEAD IS NAMED AS
 UNITED STATES SENATOR
SURE OF ELECTY \
SENATOR BANKHEAD IssS A
 STATEMENT.
Declares the Legislators Will Nst Seek to Hide Behind Technicalities to Defeat the Win of the
 PeOuIe4

Hon. John H. Bankhead, the newly appointed United States Senator from Alabama. yesterday sent the follow ing statement of his position to The Advertised.
 Editor Advertiser: When the prop erly constituted authorities of the Democratic party called a State primary for the nomination of Governor and other State officers, and members of the Legislature, they provided also for the nomination of United States Sena- tors. Recognizing the advanced age of our honored Senators. and the proba- bflity of one or more vacancies, the State Committee also provided for the nomination of alternate Senators. The candidates for this position were gen. orally spoken of and recognized as candidates for Senatorial succession.
 Tt was thoroughly understood and accepted by the voters that the nomi- nees in that primary for alternate Sem ators were to succeed to the first and second vacancies in the Senate, if such vacancies occurred before the next general election. Tn the full belief that the nomination gave the success full candidate the right to fill out the unexpired term left by reason of any vacancy, the candidates in good faith entered the contest, and the people, in the same good faith, accepted and dealt with them.
 Under the same plan and at .he same time that the Governor and mem- bers of the Legislature were nomin- ated received majority of all the votes case in the primary for success sion to the first vacancy in the United State Senate, and was duly declared the Democratic nominee by the State Democratic Executive Committee, to succeed to the first vacancy.
 "As the nominee of the Democratic party, l expect the Legislature of. Ala bama to elect me United States Senator at the approaching session.
 "An appointment, without election by the Legislature. will not enable me to become Senator Morgan's success sor. I would have no opportunity to qualify. as the United States Senate will not be in session before the meet ing of the Legislature.
 "I have full confidence that the Leg islature of Alabama will carry out the will of the people as expressed in the last primary. The Legislature has, in all other matters, sought in good faith to execute the will of the people.
 "The members will not seek techni- calities to justify them in evading and disragarding the expressed will of the people in this instance have an abiding faith in the fairness of the people and in their representatives.
 From numerous letters and mes- sages received. I find that the sentiment is practically unanimous that 1t would ing been nominated by the Democratic party for the vacancy. l have received letters and messages from majority of the members of the Legislature as- surfing me of their support.
 V. H. Bankhead."

the probability that Captain Bankhead would take back to the people his fight, if he were defeated in the Leg islature. It is believed that he would take back to the people Of each county the action of their representative in voting against the instructions of the primary. It Is believed that he and his friends would make issue against the representatives in their own coun- ties who would oppose the result of the primary
 In the meanwhile the Conner men are either silent. or they are ''cussing' the alternate Senator plan.

general such incidents as are reported to have occurred must not be taken as expressions of their will. It is believed therefore that the question if properly handled, is capable of adjustment and solution.

III am not feeling very WELL" II
am so nervous it seems as though l
should hy. y My back aches as though
it would break"
How often do you hear these signi.
fcant expressions from wome n
friends. More than likely you speak
the same words yourself, and there
is a cause.
More than thirty years ago Lydia
E Pinkham of Lynn, Mass. discovered
the source of nearly all the suffering
endured by her sex. "Woman's Ills"
these two words are full OF more
misery to women than any other two
words that can be found in the
English language. Sudden fainting,
depression of spirits, reluctance to
90 anywhere, backaches, headaches,
nervousness, sleeplessness, bearing
down sensations, displacements and
Irregularities are the bane OF woman's
existence.
The same woman who discovered
the cause of all this misery also
discovered a remedy. Lydia z. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound made
from native roots and herbs holds
the record for a greater number OF
absolute cures of female ills than any
other one remedy the world has ever
known and it is the greatest blessing
which ever came into the lives OF
suffering women.
Don't try to endure, but cure the
cause of all your suffering. Lydia +.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound at
once removes such troubles. The
following letters prove this:
