coed the late Senator John r. Nor

primaries last August Ia fiIl any
vacancies that might occur through

meet
Bankhead and ex-Goy Joseph F.
Johnson we're selected at this pri-
mary TO fiji any vacancies that might
occur through the deatb or incapa-
city of either of the aged senator's
from Alamaba. Governor Conner was
understood to have been opposed to
primary instruction for he filling of
dead mems shoes, but bowed to the
will Of his party in appointing Bank
head, thus greatly increasing the lat.
ter's chances of election
John Hollis Bankhesi will not be
stranger to Washil gton, having
been in congress for eighteen years.
He Is the retiring representative from
the Sixth Alabama district which
will be represented in congress next
winter by Captain Richmond P. Hob
son Bapehesd was VI Confederate
soldier in the late unpleasantness and
his popularity with the veterans of
the state was largely responsible for
his election TO congress in 1889. De-
feated for reelection, he entered the
ranks as candidate for the sue
censorship to one Of Alabama's per-
petual senator's and won out at the
primaries.
Bankhead does not belong to the
Tillman-Jefferson Davis crowd Of
southern statesmen. During his
eighteen years in the house he has
not once been in the limellght as a
spectacular character. lie is not an
orator and seldom speaks, but is
clear and practical talker when he
does. 1t is his honesty, his democ-
racy OF manner and his answering
devotion to the interests OF his CON
stTtuents that have made him highly
popular with the people of the state.
Colonel Bankhead is Of command
ing appearance, six feet tall and
weighs over 200 pounds. He is 81
years of age. He was wounded three
times during the war, retiring from
that bloody struggle with high hon
ors as a soldier He became mem
Der Of the state legislature shortly
after the close of the war, and in
1876 was elected to the state senate
From 1881 to 1885 he was warden of
the state penitentiary.
His home is at Fayette, in Fayotte
county, where he resides with his
wife. He has three sons and two
daughters. Two Of the sons are
prominent attorneys, while the third
is lieutenant in the United States
army. one of the daughters is Mrs
Thomas NJ. owen, Of this city, while
the other is the widow of the late
Congressman Thomas Percy, of
South Carolina.
In April. 1905, Colonel Bankhead
was defeated for congress by Captain
Richmond Pearson Hobson, after a
stumpng campaign in which both
men appealed proudly to their war
records. The youthful hero won over
the veteran of 81 and thereby has
probably aided in sending the latter
to the senate,

govern the city and also to establish
the system of assessment in this city,
as at present practiced IN New TorS

such move a wise one, because *
