Vandalism Is Condemned

Following the attack on the plants of the Anniston Evening Star and the An niston Hot Blast of this city recently, a movement has been set on foot for the or ganization of a law and order league to rid the city of the undesirable citizens who are regarded as responsible for these acts of outlawry.
 Without exception the foremost citizens of Anniston have gone on record In con- demnation of these outrages and 1t is be- leved that the perpetrators will be brought to Justice. Judge D. c. Blackwell said today: "The act was ineXcusable and the city administration should take imme- diate steps to put down such lawless- ness"
 Mayor WilSle has acted accordingly, similar expressions having been made by Judge T. w. Coleman. Judge John Pel- ham, Judge J. J. Willett, Col. E. D. VII lett, Judge w. w. Whitesde, Sheriff Le- Grand, Sheriff-eect c. T. Brooks, Col. w. H. McKleroy, James Keith, M. B.. Wellborn, H. A. Young bankers; by mer- chants, manufacturers, capitalists and others who stand prominent in the city.
 The attack on the Star plant was re- garded as exceptionally deplorable, as 1t seems like a direct slap at Capt J. B. Lloyd, editor manager of the pa per- who has just moved to the city. and all the citizens quoted have con- demned the act as non expressive of the better element of the citizenry

 This caucus is regarded as unprecedent- ed in the history of American politics. It is the immediate outcome of the fight over the tariff revision question, In con nection with which Congressman Black mon did excellent service on the stump in Alabama.
 While 1t is regarded that Speaker-to-be Champ Clark of Missouri will be the prin- cipal figure in this caucus, which will be attended by all of the S2 members-ele of the House. it is taken as of peculiar significance to Alabama Colonel Black mon made thorough study of the tariff during his campaign last summer.
