 Much To Be DepIored. Huntsville Mercury Banner. ,. The cowardly assault upon Mr. Glass. of The Montgomery Advertiser ny tne sona Of Goyerrior Conner on Saturday fleets no credit on the perpetrators of inc wanton attack. We are charitable enough to believe that Governor Co- landed outrage and believe he de- plores 1t as much as any one.

 We presume the young fellows feel their "oats.'' thinking perhaps tne Governor's boys" can do anything graced themseives and humillated the State, and if Governor Conner does nls full parental duty he will take the llt tie fellows out in the back yard and Instruct them in the real qualification for manhood.
 Time To Forget. Washington County News
 The editor of The Montgomery Aqs vertiser was brultally assaulted last Saturday by a son of Governor Conner. The attack was unprovoked. but it may indicate Mir. Corners feelings about that one cent verdict. Cheer up B. B. Ere two score months you will have ample time to forgive and forget while on an extended trip up Salt Creek.

Glass Is on his rees again.
 An UnmanIy ARsAults Ashland Standard.
 Governor Corners failure to get deu1- ages in his recent suit against The Ad- Vertiser, led two of his sons to attack on the streets of Montgomery last Sats 1rday This encounter will add noth- ing to the Governors popularity nor 10 his sons reputation as brave young men. It was very unmanly assault.

 We would like to know when the young Corners expect to make this ter- ritory seeking revenge for the critic cislns directed at their father. We have already made arrangements for a "sub" to attend to them when they come, pros
