FOR the nomination of candidate for gov
ernor, there was unmistakaby certain
interest, but the feeling predominated
that to bring about such convention
would hardly be expedient. In the first
place, it would be impossible to draw
either of the local option candidates out
of the field. Should another. individual
be nominated he would further reduce the
strength of local option in the state.
The problem is that while there is
enough anti-Comer strength in the state
to bring about the crushing defeat OF
Mr.. Conner, it viii be matter of exceed
ing great difficulty to center that strength
on any one man.
Ratherthan in a convention. possible or
probable'sthe great interest of the state is
centered in what action the executive
committee might take. 1t is considered
a foregone conclusion that the majority
rule will prevail, and that a run off be-
tween the two leading candidates will be
deemed necessary.
| All of which Indicates with what re-
markable lack of wisdom or lack of con-
! sideration for the people of the state ano
the material welfare of the state the am
| bitious candidates pitched their campaigns
a month or six weeks ago. The primary
will probably occur next spring. The
run off will endure a MONTH and the
election will not occur before fall Fol-
more than Is months, therefore, the people
will be distressed by continuous politica

The current week promises to be feat

Times on Prominent Cor
ner by ]. V. Pike

Alexander city, August 2-(Special To-
day at l O'Clock while Foster Fuller, a
young man, was passing the Barton cor
ner in this city he was met by J. V
Pike, an old gentleman. another country
man residing in the same vicinity with
Fuller, and suddenly Mr.. Pike began
shooting. Mr. Fuller. after two shots
were fired by Pike. one taking effect in
his breast, broke to run, when Pike fired
third shot at the fleeing man.
Fuller was taken to a doctors office
and his wound dressed but 1t was found
to be only a flesh wound Of no great
danger Pike was taken under arrest and
allowed to go under a bond of $500 for ap-
pearance at court.
Inquiry into the cause OF the shooting
developed the fact that it arose from do
nestle troubles.

OASIS of clever strategy. 1t was deter
mined to send an invitation to each of
the candidates for governor eouched in
such style that each would instantly con-
clude that he alone had been invited to
appear before the people. Each of the
candidates received his invitation and his

Henderson May Be Missing
However, it is Understood that there is
the probability of Charles Henderson oe-
ing unable to attend. 1t is said that he
will be engaged in trying the case of the
state against the North and South di-
vision of the Louisville and Nashville
railroad. 1t is possible that he will ne
given certain credit for remaining faith
ful in the discharge of the business of the
people and foregoing an excellent oppor-
tunity of confronting Mr. Conner with a
refutation, positive and emphatic and
spectacular. of his charges against tho
president of the railroad commission
to the effect that he is the candidate OF
the railroads
1t is thought also that there is another
reason why Mr. Henderson will not make
a special effort to appear, that being his
desire to open his campaign in form3
manner in the midst of his own people al

McCreary's Portrait

A portrait of Gov. McCreary
will adorn the walls of the marble
Temple of Peace at Washington.
Mr.. McCreary has been asked by
Secretary of State Bryan to send
his portrait to be hung in the
Temple. Gov. McCreary, then
Senator, was author OF the bill
providing for the Pan-American
Conference, and was a member
of the Pan-American Commission.
When Andrew Carnegie offered
to donate $750,000 toward the
million-dollar temple if the TWEEN
ty-one republics represent e d
would raise the other S250,000,
Gov. McCreary assisted in the
enterprise, and his portrait, with
others who did pioneer work in
the Pan-American movement,
will be assembled in the building,
which is headquarters of the Blu
reau of American Republics and
a place of welcome for the citi.
zens of the American republics
in Washington. The Governor
notified Secretary Bryan that he
will send the portrait, and has
written to a New York photogra
