MORGAN t. ]. P.'S
 BADLY DIVIDED

Decatur. July 2.-(Special 1.-The repub- licans of this county who are supporting Joseph o. Thompson, state chairman of the republican party in Alabama, in his political difference with Maj. r. ID. Barker of Mobile, national committeeman from Alabama, met in Hartselle yesterday for the purpose of re-affirmng their al legance to MT. Thompson. No action was taken by the gathering as it is claimed that A communication was received from MT. Thompson in which he said that an understanding had been reached between himself and the Barker forces that no more county meetings be held until after the meeting of the national republican committee, which will be held within a short time. The Thompson forces in this county are headed by R. B. Minter, who claims to be chairman of the republican county executive committee
 In this county the Barker forces are headed by Eli P. Jennings, who claims to be the rightful chairman of the commit tee. A few months ago there was held a meeting of the county executive com mittee and Mr. Jennings, by resolution was removed as county chairman on the grounds that he did not support Joseph O.. Thompson for governor, but that he voted for and worked for the election of Charles Scott of Montgomery as governor. MT. Jennings says that he was elected by n mass meeting of the republicans of this county and that the committee had no authority delegated to them to remove him, that he could only be removed by a mass meeting of the republicans of the county, the same body that elected him to the office. He says therefore, that he is the legal ctairman of the county com mittee and that he has been so advised bv some of the highest authorities of the party. Mir Jennings says further that he was removed by the committee without notice and that he was not given an op- portunity to defend his position.

B. McClurkin, well-known citi- zen of oxford, whom he is said to have beat to death in most brutal way
 Governor O'Neal has already granted u reprieye in the case of Kirkpatrick, how ever. and his attorneys are sparing no effort fo secure a communication of his sentence. similar effort is being made in the case of Pope. who was convicted on circumstantial evidence. and the fact that the supreme court once sent his case hack though affirmed it again on |. divided opinion in a second hearing.

TELEPHONE CASE
 FAR REACHING ONE

Decatur, July 2.-(Special. )-That the telephone exchange in New Decatur may be closed down is possible on account of the recent action of the supreme court of Alabama, which holds that the city had a right to revoke the franchise of the Southern Bell Telephone company. The case was one of much interest and had been in the courts for number Of years
 In speaking of the supreme courts de- cision Judge John C. Eyster of New De- catur, the local council for the telephone company said: Millions of dollars are affected by the decision. l am afraid that 1t will have tendency to retard the de- velopment of the state. Foreign capital will be slow to invest in municipal securi- ties if their franchises are to be subject to revocation. The decision Is one of the most momentous ever rendered by the Alabama supreme court"
 Tt is understood here that in the event the supreme court overrule the motion for lre-hearing that the case will then be taken to the supreme court of the United States.
