MUCH INTEREST IN
 DALLAS CONVENTION

The "On to Dallas movement of the Birmingham Ad club has awakened great deal of interett, and the prospects now are that 50 at least will go to the great convention of the Associated Ad Clubs of America in Dallas next month. The regularly named delegation of seven will go as official representatives Of the Birmingham club, and number of other members. with their wives, will make the trip, probably completely filling the two special cars which will go from here to Dallas.
 The club is very anxious to outdo At lanta particularly, not only in number, hut also in the effectiveness of the ad- yertising of the respective cities at the convention. Municipal advertising will be one of the big cards at the meeting, and the city that scores one Will get an almost unobtainable kind of advertising. This the Birmingham club believes 1t can accomplish.

False AIibis Established


 ''The evidence before us dscloses to our satisfaction that in many instances where murders and assassnations were commit ted, false alibs wers prepared in advance of the commission of the offense. We believe that an examination of all cases where any legal investigation has been made at all of the murders committed will disclose the fact that in most in- stances practically the same set of wit nosses were always available to swear in behalf of the men accused of the crime. It therefore appears that there was not only an organization to kill, but also an organization to commit perjury in behalf of the guilty parties.
 Fl can be readily seen that when this condition Of lawlessness and anarchy be- came established, good men of the com munity. through fear of their lives. were forced to maintain silence as to the com- mission of crimes of which they may have had some information, while otllers Of had character have consistently by per jury and subornatiou of perjury sup pressed the truth and made detection of crime almost impossible The lengths to which lGwlessness in fhis community has gone show conclusively to our minds the necessity of prompt and effective investi- gation and speedy prosecution of all homi- cides, and of a fund for the purpose of securing competent aid in making such Investigations Had the first homicide in this community been vigorously investi- gated and the perpetrators arraigned be- fore the bar of justice. The carnival of bioodshed which has since shocked this entire state would In all probability have been stopped in its inception. The commission of one homicide unpuf ished led to the conmis- sion of another. Out of this one arose vet another, until it seemed that the talk ing Of human life became but game or nunt in which, unlike that of animals there was no closed season. We have as rapidls as possible, during our nvestig1- tons. referred the information that we have collected to the grand jury. In some tases indictments have already been re- turned, and we think sufficient informa- tion has been furnished for additional in diotments to be returned, which. in our opinion, f promptly and vigorously prose- cuted, will result in clearing up and clean ins. iip the terrible conditions which have existed in this portion of our countg
 I've desire to state that in this inyes-. tigbtion VIC have had the energetic feith- fnI and efficient assistance of the present | coroner who has during his term used his best efforts to ascertain the perpetra- tors Of tFese hon iciaes. and of the sheriff end his deputies, of the chief of police of the city of Birmingham. and hs officers, the city of Hirmingham and his officers, and of many good citizens who reside in these communities We are making further investigator of the Ellard assassi ation and have adjourned subject to the call of the coroner

AGED MAN KILLED
 BY Q. & |. FLYER

While walking down the Queen and Crescent tracks near Springville yes terday morning Nose Pierce, an aged citizen of that community was struck by the fastest train on the Queen and Crescent service and was instantly killed The train was operating two hours late at the time of the accident, it is stated, and was turning a curve in the track. Engineer Hafer in charge of the flyer, did not see the s0-year-old man until almost upon him. Although everything possible was. done to avert the killing, it was without avail.
 The body was pick ed up by the train men and turned over to relatives at Springville, where MT. Pierce had re- sided for many years.

Hurled Through Fence

Under the mortified gaze of a mnltifude of spectators at the fair grounds yester- day afternoon d racing auto carried Wal ter Gather, a machinist, and Cecil Lyons through fence, perhaps fatally iniuring Gather and seriously injuring Lyons The right arm of Gather was almost severed from his body, his face was scratched into a map. his left arm was very seriously Fractured, he suffered a severe abrasion about the face and was otherwise man. gled. He is expected to die unless his condition turns immediately for the bet ter. Lyons suffered very few injuries and was enabled to walk away from the wreck.
 Before the echo of q wild burst oe cheers over his pluck died away, Lyons. driving Chalmers car in the f5 mile race. plunged through the guard fence at the first curve to the west of the grandstand. Thousands of people wild ly excited over the efforts of Lyons in the Chalmers to pass the Stutz glued their eyes upon him as he swept past the grandstand. Behind him a curtain Of dust enveloped the speeding car. In less than second a shriel rent the air and the spectators yelled: "He went through the fence"

 ISSUE IN CAMPAIGN "Gag Rule"in Convention Was Badly Received and It's Results May be
 Felt in Future Politics
 of the State
By HUGH W. ROBERTS

Politicians and observers of political trends and indications. returning from Montgomery, where on Tuesday the state cony ention was held. bring back informa- ton which points to the following as facts:
 1. Every Alabamian Is enthusiastic in the cause of Underwood.
 2. Every Alabamian is opposed to slate making and gag rule.
 8. Sentiment is overwhelmingly against the Louisville and Nashville railroad for increasing it's rates
 l. B. B. Conner can be elected gover- nor in 1914 without serious opposition.
 Developments in the convention and following the convention substantiate each of the foregoing deductions. The state is as a unit in reference to the presidential campaign of Mir. Underwood If there is vestige of sentiment in favor of Woodrow Wilson or Judson Harmon 1t is, by premedltated design, concealed, That every Alabamian is opposed to slate making and gag rule. which obtained in the convention, is proved in the fact that but for consideration for MT. Underwood those successfully tried tactics would have been orushingly defeated and their sknlful forbears seathingly rebuked.
 Anti-Railroad Sentiment The surprise of the convention was the successful effort of Tom L. Long to put the democracy of Alabama on record as being opposed to the rate increase by the Louisville and Nashville railroad. 1t was late in the afternoon when MT. Long expr a desire to offer his resolu- tion. From arduous toll and indeter- minable struggle the delegates were com- pletey Tagged. As further handicap. someone declared Long out of order be- cause it had been agreed previously that all resolutions must be referred without debate to the committee named to con sder resolutions Then someone, Sen- ator Robert Moulthrop of Barbour, made motion to the effect that the rules be suspended. This almost unheard of proce- dure, when the matter under discussion was extraneous to the vital Issues of the moment, occurred The rules were suspended and Long introduced his reso- luton severely criticising the Louisville and Nashville, and declaring for an ex- traordfnary session of the legislature in case such an extreme measure was neces- sary in the fight to put the state again in command
 The resolution carried overwhelming ly. There were a few scattering votes registered against 1t. Yesterday MT. Long stated "So overwhelmingly was the majority in favor of the passage of the resolution that 17 of the 65 railroad attorneys who were present voted for it's adoption"
