of my delegates will vote'
 He was greeted with storm of Pronunciation.
 He was told. You ought to know how your delegates stand. It was your business to know be- fore they were put on the ticket Warner was angry, as could see, but he said nothing to show hds anger.
 'The talk finally came to whether the Coroner would stand for the things that Warner wanted. His policies. all the appointments, and so on.
 'tThe Coroner was asked if he would agree not to make any ap- pointments without consulting the organization. He said he would agree to that. In fact he bound himself in every way that lan- guage could bind man in such matter, short of making oath.
 'When. the discussion of whether the Coroner would pledge himself to what Warner wanted was through with, somebody mentioned money for the campaign.
 'srhe Coroner said, T have no money
 Warner said, I will give $s,000 to help We can get $1 1,ooo more from candidates, or office holders, and we ought to get $1,00O in vol untary contributions from outsid- ers- This will make 5000 War ner said that he thought s5,000 would be enough to run the cam paign on.
 "The Coroner said he thought Mr. Warner very generous, and that $5.00O would be enough.
 Warner was the dominating spirit of the. conference King, Lavery and the Coroner had very little to say except to assent to Warmers views. The district chairmen also had little to say ex- cept to report the state of affairs in their districts.
 'It appears, however, that the district chairmen were not quite so undisturbed as their pacific ac- tions in the conference would have appeared. Some of them had been used to political conferences in which their views had been con- sidered important, and they were piqued when they found every thing ready for them, and that they were expected to accept what ever was offered by Warner. But the prospect of having plenty of funds to fight the campaign with appealed to them, and kept them in line with the program
 The district chairmen present were:
 Wm. Seelev
 A. J. Northey.
 Howard Smith
 James P. Burnes
 Frank Ballard.
 Henry Pember.
 James Gilmore.
 Al Phelps.
 A. J. Bodine.
 Charles Blackham.

 Never has candidate under alleged Republican auspices been so thorough ly discredited at the outset.
 What was dubbed a. Republican con- venfion, held last night, was nothing short of a gathering of faithful ser vitors of the new regime called to formally ratify cut and dried pro gram that had previously been decid- ed upon by Warner King-Lavery, ct al, in Warmers private office.
 Republicans of standing in the com munity are not saying much today, but there is a heap of thinking being done.

 People
CAUSE OF TROUBLE

 The reasons are: d) That the commits sioners are not In sympathy with com mission form of government; @ that they have failed to give the city good government t3l that the entire city dis approves of the legslature's action in making the commissioners appointive, and fD. that the city commissioners are not devoting their full time to the trans action of the eitys business.

 w. A. Gunter. Jr., president of the board w. R. Brasseil, C. p. Mcintyre, E. B. Joseph and J. T. Letcher.
 The petitions are believed to be backed chiefly by those citizens who few days ago submitted petition to the commits sioners asking for referendum election to determine whether or not a street tax of S3 should be paid.

 We the undersigned qualified electors of the city of Montgomery do present this, our petition, to your honorable body, and respectfully petition and ask for the resignation of w. A.
