Latter's Supporters Aroused
and More Strongly Draw
Line With Henderson
ANNISTON STIRRED BY
POLITICAL CHARGES
Case to Which Kennedy Refers Dates
Back to Early Days When Lacy
Attempted to Shoot Up the
Hot-Blast Office

Aniston, July 26.-(Special) )--For the first
time during the present political campaign
Admission has been genuinely stirred over
the gubernatorial situation, the charges
and counter charges of two ex-Annis-
tonians giving a decidedly local interest
to the campaign, as a result of which
groups of business men on street corners
discussing politics was common sight
Saturday.
| The charge by Ex-Governor Conner that
Sam p. Kennedy would be made presl-
dent of the railroad commission if Hem
derson was elected and that there would
be another Alamo gas deal If Kennedy
and McCord were in control of the COM
| mission was resented by the friends OF
Mr.. Kennedy, who still holds his citizen
ship here, and then came the papers Sat
urday with another thriller in the charge
of Kennedy to the effect that Conner led
a mob while resident of this city.
Revives Old History
| The charge made by Mr.. kennedy has
been heard here before, but it was never
charged publicly, nor couched in such
positive language, it having been stated
previously that Mr.. Conner showed an in
dication that he was willing TO lead q
mob. However, the charge has thoroughly
aroused the Conner supporters and more
strongly draws the line between Conner
and Henderson.
| The case to which Mr.. Kennedy refers
harks back TO the early history of Annis-
ton, when brother of r. II. Edmonds.
now editor of the Manufacturers Record.
was editor of the Admission Hot Blast the
city's pioneer daily The paper had made
an Objectionable publication, and a man
by the name of Lacy. relative of Sena-
tor Pettus and Theodore Lacy, who re-
Gently figured in the convict scandal at
Montgomery, shot up the office. The
shooting caused profound sensation and
aroused intense feeling against Lacy,
who, however, was never convicted. Some
trial.
Kolh Also a Factor
| Due to the fact that he lso formerly re-
sided in Admission. the charge of Commits
sioner kolb against Henderson and Hem
derson's denial and challenge to his ven
cradle opponent has also come in for a
| good deal of talk Unless the labor lead
ers and dyed-in-the-wool prohibitionists
are doing some effective gum-shoe work
in the interest of Seed and Kolb. however,
/ Henderson and Conner hold the bigger
part of interest in Calhoun. The cause
| of the railroad commission president is be-
ing aggressively pushed by Judge J. j
! Wilett, former Conner supporter, and
| local shippers are equally aggressive
/ for Conner who might likewise claim q
| share of the prohibition vote.
