REPUBS' FIGHT IS POLITICAL Judge A. D. Sayre Has No Jurisdiction. MANDAMUS IS REFUSED Thompson Wing Is Victorious to
 That Extent. Davidson wing win Appeai--Hn Mean- while the Matter is Pat Up to
 secretary of state
 Frank Julian.
 

Judge A. D. sayre of the City Court of Montgomery, yesterday decIded that he had no Jurisdiction over the much talked case. in which the so-caiied Davidson faction of the Republican party sought a writ of mandamus to be directed at the Secretary of State compelling him to recognize that wing instead of the Thompson wing as the official party organization in Alabama.
 The question was. Judge Sayre said, essentially a political one, and he stated that the court had no jurisdic- ton to settle the matter.
 The arguments of the eontesting at- torneys, which occupied five hours Monday. were continued yesterday, be- ginning at 9:30 o'clock, and 1t was o'clock in the afternoon before the decision of the Judge was announced.
 The parties gave notice of an ap- peal following Judge Sayre's decision. The Judge declined to fix any bond So that the judgment appealed from might be superseded.
 It is said that the Thompson fac ton of the party certified only elect ors at large and not the electors from the districts. The probability is that both will be certified to.
 AS the matter now stands. the Re publican Party of Alabama will pre- sent two distinct State tickets. or to be more accurate. two Republican tickets will be presented. Up to the present time there has been no sug- Restion of a compromise between the contesting factions.
 The controversy In a largo measure will depend upon the view Secretary Julian may take of having two Re publican tickets in tho field, each claiming to be rerular
 helped him greatly in making the de. cision. The point will no doubt bt made that there cannot be two reg. uiar" Republican tickets and the Sec retary will think about 1t. It is, how ever, probable that the two tickets will have a place on the oficiaI ballot.
