Barnard Says He Has Not
Decided Full on Race for
Lieutenant Governor
GREATEST ACTIVITY
AMONG CANDIDATES
New Feature of Past Week Was the
Discussion of Possible Candi-
dates for the Supreme
Court Bench
HUGH ROBERTS

While it has long been considered q
Certainty that Thomas e. Kilby, the
widely known senator from Calhoun, had
lead pipe cinch in his race for lieu
tenant governor, all of a sudden a dense
cloud has come over the sky of the
chubby Annistonian. w. H. Barnard OF
Pratt City, the proprietor of perhaps the
most important livery business of that
cosmopolitan center and member OF
the Jefferson delegation to the lower
house of representatives, admits that he
is seriously thinking of entering the
race.
This is the most important announce
ment following the closing of the past
week. Mr.. Barnard did not declare him
self to be a candidate, but gave indica-
tions of his desire to enter the field, If not
his well considered determination to en-
ter.
Il may rum said he. MIR. Kilby has
announced and has obtained a flying
start. one which it will. be difficult to
overhaul. But this office is worthy of
fighting for, and unless something hap
pens to prevent, 1 will precipitate the
fight"

speak a word for her, but she hated for
them to know her degradation She did

do, because there was no name there that
carried more of honor and respect.
The fact that there is something in a
name is proven. When a few of the Mo-
bilians here heard the sad story and were
asked If it would be of service to write
to Mobile One former citizen of that
city freely said 'there are enough of us
here to speak of what McMaster meant in
Mobile, and we will speak here in behalf

TO PROVIDE ARMORY
FOR LOCAL BATTERY
Unless Something Is Done at
Once Government Equip
ment Will Be Removed

Despairing OF the city, the county or the
state assisting in the construction of a
proposed armory. committee of former
captains of Battery d will begin active
steps tomorrow. For the announcement
from national headquarters has been made
that unless an armory is secured by the
date of the next inspection, the battery
will be abolished and the $4,000 worth of
equipment withdrawn by the federal gov
ernment.
The committee in question is composed
of Edward D. Smith, James Quinton
Smith, l.. s. Dorrence, Ed L. Anderson
and Frank Finn, present captain of the
battery
Ii is understood that the battery has Sc
cured an option on three lots on Avenue
G between Tenth and Eleventh streets.
and that if the option is exercised an
armory costing in the neighborhood of
$500 will be constructed. 1t is understood
that the lots will cost in the neighborhood
of $1,000 each. In all, a prospective invest
ment Of $4,000 is anticipated.
The effort of the we'll known members
of the committee will be the first prao-
teal step taken in behalf of the battery.
The equipment of Battery d is unexcelled
and its men are thoroughly trained and
enthusiastic. But the. government has is
sued instructions that unless better arm
ory facilities are secured the equipment
will be withdrawn.
When the equipment was offered. Bir-
mingham agreed to furnish suitable
armory. The city government has never
displayed material interest in the plight
of the armory.

POLITICIAN UNCOVERED WHO
NEVER COURTED A REPORTER

man. Saturday he visited the office of
The Age-Herald. and bore letter of
introduction to the political reporter.
This Is the first newspaper office in
which have ever been," said he in way
of greeting. "I have never figured to
any great extent In the public press. l
have never pursued the newspaper re-
pcrter. J. have never believed that it
was in accordance with ideas of de-
cency to strive strenuously for an op-
portunity to parade my sentiments in
the press to force by artful measures,
as 1t were, myself upon the public
The Judge struck a new chord in
modern American politics. The average
candidate, as is known, approaches with
blare of trumpets, and radiates his
impression that he is about to confer
on the reporter a favor of especially
meritorious proportions. He seems to
lose sight of the fact that he is the
pursuer and not the pursued, and that
he is decidedly more in need of the
contents of the state purse than the
state IS in need of his peculiar brand
OF service.
Judge Bradley, at one time, was con-
sidered a probable candidate for the
congressional seat to be vacated by
Captain Hobson. He seriously eonsid-
cred, as 4 matter of fact. thrustlng
himself into the fight for the plum for
the juicy fruit of which William b.
Bankhead and WilliaG B. Oliver are
striving. Bat on account of his friend
ship for the two aspiraats, he changed
his mind, and announced, for treasurer
of the state. He will make an able
race. and it Is needless to add that
should he be elected. the strong box
will be in the care Of excellent hands.

\ There is nothing new under the
SUM-"
For a politician has been uncovered
not novice, but one old and expert
enced in the most fascinating of all
American pastimes-who until yester-
day had never sought or acquired the
acquaintance of a newspaper man, one
who, in other words. was entirely un-
familiar with the process by means of
which the reporter, on the one hand.
works the politician for news, and the
politician, on the other, works the re-
porter for much desired publicity
The Richmond-new in this regard
was none other than r. L. Bradley of
Vernon, who at the present time is
probate Judge of the aristocratic county
of Lamar and a candidate for the hon
BILE position of treasurer of the great
state of Alabama.
There is only one reason why Judge
Bradley has failed to encounter the
newspaper reporter. From a sense of
modesty he has Stunned him. Oppor-
tunities. have abounded. For the pres
ent candidate for treasurer has long

OUR SAVINGS STOCK
Appeals to Everybody Who Wishes to
Save Money

The savings stock of the Jefferson
County Building and Loan association
at 113 North Twenty first street does
not appeal to the haphazard person as
an ideal way of saving money
Fifty cents a share per month beats
the instal1ment plan of buying lot
1t beats saving a dime here and A
dollar there. Its strong point is not in
the fact that 1t pays 6 per cent for
short periods and 8 per cent on long
deposits. the very highest rate paid on
savings anywhere in the world.
But its great and controlling virtue
is in it's systematic character. so much
month" Is training of the right sort
and begets a saving habit that has
laid the foundation of more fortunes
than all other agencies combined.
