TO VOTE DIRECT
FOR PRESIDENT
PRIMARY BETWEEN BRYAN AND

MONTGOMERY, Ala, May IL
For the first time in the history of the
State, the voters of the Democratic
party will vote direct for Presiden-
tial candidate in the Democratic pri-
mary tomorrow The names of John
A. Johnson and William ]. Bryan will
be upon the ticket and the candidate
receiving a majority of the votes cast

Denver instructed for him.
The plan was adopted by the State
Executive Committee at the request
of the Alabama friends of William j.
Bryan 1t was not thought at that
time that Mr.. Bryan would have any
OPPOSITION for the Alabama delegation.
On the last day on which candidates
could qualify the name of Gov. John
A. Johnson of Minnesota, was put on
the ticket and a vigorous campaign
In the towns the candidacy of Gov.
Johnson has met with considerable
favor, but it is not known with any
definiteness how it has been received
in the country, so short has been the
campaign. The Bryan men express
of carrying the State by an
majority, while the
Johnson supporters say that the candi-
dacy of the Minnesota Governor has
already shown that the strength of
Mr.. Bryan was exaggerated and are
of Johnson's success.
In interest this contest has over
shadowed all others which will be
settled by tomorrow's primaries For
President of the Railroad Commission
Charles Henderson, incumbent has no
opposition. Game Commissioner John
I. Wallace is opposed by p B. Mastin,
If Montgomery Coutny. OF the races
IN the State ticket the chief interest
enters about the nomination of two
Associate Justices of the Supreme
court. There are six candidates for

STRONG SERMON
BY DR.. DINWIDDIE
ABLE EXPOSITION OF THE TEXT
"FRET NOT THYSELF AT THE
PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH.

Dr. A. G. Dinwiddie in the absence
of Dr. Wharton occupied the pulpit
of the First Presbyterian church at
the eleven o'clock service Sunday
morning. DR.. Dinwiddie took as his
text the first three words of the first
verse of the thirty-seventh Psalm
Fret Not Thyself."
The subject was handled in a most
mastery way, 1t was practical SER
mon and he dissected each man and
pointed out TO him the uselessness in
fretting over worldly things. Fret
not myself because of evil-doers, Meth
err be thou envious against the workers
of iniquity." Later on in his sermon,
DR.. Dinwiddie used the entire verse
in expressing his thoughts. He point
ed out to the husband, the wife, the
child, the employe and the employed,
the uselessness in fretting over trivial
things. The uselessness of a person
loosing his or her temper and saying
things that they would be sorry for
after they had cooled down, God is
always the stay of the man that leans
IN Him.

SOLDIER BOYS
LOCALS WIN FROM 3. c. A. BY
SCORE or FIVE TO
FOUR.
RALLY IN NINTH TURNS HAIR
Visitors Get a Batting Streak And
Come Near Tieing The Score.
Play Today.

Columbia Military Academy pulled
off another victory Saturday against
Battle Ground Academy. The soldiers
were not up to their usual good trim
and played punk ball. The game
opened listless and it was several in
nings before the players succeeded in
getting any ginger in the game.
Battle Ground Academy played punk
ball at the beginning of the game, still
1t was by the merest accident that the
cadets won. Luck favored them from
the beginning to the close of the game.
The cadets went to the field in the
first inning and retired the visitors
without any sensations. The last half
of the first the cadets made two runs,
the runs made by Or. Brock and Black
and it looked as though Donnell would
be knocked all over the lot, but he
settled down and pitched winning ball
the remainder of the game, but was
poorly supported He famed fifteen
of the cadets heavy hitters. Again in
the fourth inning he was landed on by
Black for a single, Taylor for three |
bags and Foot for two, which netted
two more runs.
The visitors got their first run in
the third, which was made on an
error The score then stood four to
one and it looked as though it would
remain that way. The cadets got to-
gether and got down 10 playing ball,
but there was one thing that they
could not prevent and that was the
filching of the bases by the visitors.
Brown stole four bags. Reid one,
Guthrie two and Claggett two, and to
cap the climax. Claggett worked Neal
and Moore to a finish and stole home. ,
This was in the ninth inning when the
cadets went up in the air and allowed
three runs and it looked as though
the score would be tied. This rally
on the part of the visitors was not 4.
heir superior playing, but was due to
he inferior work of the cadets The !.
cam went to pieces for few minutes
md before they collected thmselves
hree runs were piled up against them. :,
Neal pitched good ball. striking out =
en- men, giving three bases on balls
md not hitting a single batter. He :
vas not given the support that the
cam usually gives him, and he did =

Despite the fact that there were =
