You will see that Matthews, the defeated democratic nominee for mag istrate and myself ran together, at each place and that McNeil and the negro ran together.
 An analysis of this vote shows such close parallel between the vote at each place in the vote cast for Me- Neil and that cast for the Negro re- publican candidate for justice of the peace, Tom Mingea, as to leave nc uoubt in an unbiased mind that tho same or practically the same votes were cast for each.
 This statement of the votes is taFen from the returns of the General ssec- ton as certified to by the E!ectio2 Commissioners, and nine tenths of the white voters of Barraque township. will bear me out in my deductions
 Of course this is 6 free country, and man may do as he pleases. so long as he violates no law, but every white man knows the need of party loyalty, in this section, and when a man asks for a party nomination. he should have clean record as u party loyalty, and no stain of conf vance however remote with the negro republican element in politics. give this statement out to the | Democrats of Jefferson county, so that you may judge for yourselves just how much Mir. AcNcil is entitled to your support.
 l 1 have no interests as between the other candidates, but do feel that any man who asks a democratic nomi- nation at the hands of his party, should show a clean party record. an! not have even suspicion of collision with negro Republicans to defeat re- gular Democratic nominees.

HIGH SCHOOL SQUAD
OUT AT PRACTICE

With number Of promising can
didates in the field and general pros
poets bright for an excellent team
regular football practice was begun
yesterday at West End park by the
High school football squad. Over so
men were out to try for positions,
among whom were a number of last
seasons men, including Clarence Bar
ker, at his old position at center;
Estes at quarter; Wingo, Zielminski
and others.
Coach Messer is of the opinion that
no trouble will be experienced in turn
ing out fast squad of men, thorough
practice and good head work being
all needed Several new men are show
ing up with much promise, chief among
whom are Charles Weber, a fast all
around athlete from Springfield, o. The
team this season will not come up to
its average weight in past seasons but
good men are out for all positions and
a strong lineup may be expected.
A number of games have been
scheduled for the ensuing season, the
first of which will be played with the
University High school of this city on
October 9. The team has had no trou-
BILE in past years in downing the rival
high school and the usual victory is
anticipated for the first event

Alabama Football Squad
DOnn To Hard Training

University, September 2S.-(Special.)-
Dr. Pollard has his squad of footballists
working overtime this week trying to
get in shape for the opening game of the
season on Saturday against the eleven
Of Union college. In the effort to get every
man in the place in which he will be the
most effective, the coach is lining up his
team slightly differently every day. Yes
terday afternoon in the fierce brush with
the scrubs, the men lined up as follows:
Countess, center; Lumley and Arant,
guards; Gresham and Findlay, tackles;
Bumgartner and Garrett ends; Moody,
quarterback; Wilkinson, left half; Vande-
CRAFT. fullback, and Palmer, right half.
Captain Pratt on account of a slight
bruise was not in the lineup. Three dlf-
ferent men have been tried at quarter
hack in the last few days of practice, and
the matter of getting the most efficient
man for the place has not yet been denn-
itely settled Captain Pratt has been tried
there and he fills the position well, but the
question is whether he will be more val
liable there than at halfback, his position
last year. Wilkinson has also been hand-
ling the passes and he does well, but he
is an excellent man at either halfback OF
end He has had more or less experience
in the place before. Moody, last years
freshman quarter, is a good man at pass
ing the ball and at running in broken
field, but he lacks somewhat of expert
ence. However, he proved himself
heady general in the way he directed the
operations of the freshmen aggregation
last season.
After the practice yesterday afternoon
the first draft of the varsity squad was
made, and the following men were sent
to the training table: Arant, Garrett Mil
Ter Ia1mley, Johnston, Palmer, Harsh,
Gresham, Haley, Lambert. Bumgartner,
Countess Wilkinson and STREET. Several
of the likely men live in town and will not
be compelled to come out to barracks foH
their meals The table is not yet filled,
and as the members of the scrubs show
particular ability they will be promoted
to the table, where the men will be fed
on proteids, carbohydrates, etc.-in plain
language, good broiled steak, eggs, dry
toast and the like-in proportions proper
TO the production of Drawn and staying
power which will enable them to take the
scalps of their opponents. The dieting of
the men is now one of the most important
features of training nowadays, and 1t Is
certainly one of the most valuable, for a
man in first-class physical condition ID
far less liable to injury than one who
is not and he is certainly capable of ac-
complishing more for his team.
Those who are looking for a runaway
affair on Saturday may be pulled up with
a sharp jerk when the event comes off,
for the Union team has already played
one game. and moreover made a good
showing. Last Saturday they stepped IL
over the Fitzgerald college eleven to a
count of IS to 0. And think of playing
20 and rs minutes halves this early in the
season as they did 1t is said that the
Union aggregation has in its ranks sew

Tigers Blank New York.

New York, September 2S.-Detroits last
appearance in New York this season was
marked by a to victory, the visitors
thus making it three out of four of the
series and maintaining their lead of .016
over the Athletics. Both Donovan and
Wilson pitched gilt-edged ball, the De-
troiter receiving superior support and
being inyincible with men on bases. Two
of New Yorks three errors helped De-
troit to runs, the visitors also using two
of Wilson'S bases on balls to advantage.
While it has lost some ground on its
present eastern trip, the Detroit club
stands an excellent chance this season of
winning its third consecutive pennant and
thereby establishing a record for the
American league, no team of which has
won the flag more than twice in success
sion
Detroit has six games scheduled, four
with Boston and two with Chicago and
if it should win four of these Philadelphia
would have to win all of its contests
scheduled to tie Detroit for the flag. Then
three games would have to be played to
