Interspersed with his ex tremely enjoyable pleasantries was a strong and earnest plea for the preser- vation of personal liberties
 At the conclusion of Mir Longs ad- dress he requested all opposed to the amendment to rise. Instantly the en- tire audience with the exception of possibly ten arose to their feet
 permanent county organization was perfected with J. c. Oakley as chair man. The following cenGal campaign committee was appointed: John P. Kennedy, L. H. Nunnelee. John S. Gardner. W. W.
