 VISITS MALLORY Looks After the Interest of
 Bryan Delegates HE IS STILL CONFIDENT Dallas County Candidates Qualify and Are Now Ready For Final Stretch In Campaign-Tubercul
 Exhibit at Selma.
HE IS STILL CONFIDENT

Selma, May 1.-(Specal. )--John w. Tom linson spent today in Selma comforting with H. S. D. Mallory, chairman of the I state executive committee, as to the in- terests of the Bryan delegates to the national convention. MT. Tomlinson stat ed he did not feel any apprehension whatever over the fact that the name of Governor Johnson of Minnesota would be placed on the ticket along with Mr. Bryan and earnestly believed that MT Bryan would receive an overwhelming majority
 The qualification at the eleventh hour of Dr. L. M. Cunningham and Frank s. Moody as delegates from the state-at- large is taken by many here to mean an effort to defeat Colonel Tomlinson not for any personal reason but for the effect it would have in other states if such could be accomplished. It is be- leved here that this fact will serve only to concentrate the friends of MT. Bryan all the closer, and there is hardly any doubt but that Colonel Tomlnson will be elected.
 The entrance of Walker Percy in the race as delegate from the Ninth dis trict is also looked upon as part of the plan to weaken MT. Bryan elsewhere, should even the state go for him. Dal- las county will no doubt poll a large majority for MT. Bryan, it being believed here that he is the most available can- didate that the democracy can select.
 Coua-J Candidates Qualify.
