Attack on the Primary Law
Tallahassee, July 23.-That there
is no chance for the Bull Moose"
party of Florida to prevent the sec
rotary of state from certifying to the
boards of county commissioners
throughout the state the nominations
of those who won out for various
state, county and national offices in
the Bryan primary election of June
2, is the opinion of Attorney General
Thos. F. West He opines as fol-
lows:
IN my opinion there is no reason
for alarm on the part of those NOM
mated in the primary election held
in June last. Statutes regulating the
conduct of primary elections have
been sustained as valid by the courts
of this state. as a proper exercise of
the legislative power, and the courts
Of a number of other states have up
held provisions similar to those Of
the primary election law of this
state which is attacked by this liti-
cation.
The litigation is really an attack
upon the primary election plan of
nominating officers, but that plan
has been upheld in every state where
the law has been tested

The game was fast, lasting but /

displayed enough pep to cop most any
major league pennant when coupled
with the brand Of ball that the Scouts
have already demonstrated they can

Manager Sheckard and Stoll, a semi
pro. third baseman, who was playing
on Baskette's team, lean the field at
the bat. Both of these rang up two
hits. Bates made the only hit that
went for an extra base. He poked
out a double the first time he
came to bat in the initial inning. Hill
yard, the Canadian slugger, and Jay
Kirke, the former Southern league
fence-buster, were walked seVeral
times by the opposing pitchers. Kirke
got a screaming hit in the third AMI

Stolls error.
Casey Jones pulled a circus catch
in the fifth inning that robbed Jim
Baskette of clean triple. Casey made
spectacular run, sensational leap
in the air, and held on to the ball while
he turned a series of somersaults be-
fore he finally landed on his back out

ANOTHER FAKE
ATTEMPTED upon
The COMMISSION
IS NOT TUBERCULOSIS nov
Neither Is Prisoner Dying of
Broken Heart"

Atlanta, March 13.-Some rather sill.
ly and unfounded stories have been
floating up and down Georgia under
an Atlanta date line to the effect that
Thomas Edgar Stripping, formerly a
resident of Columbus, is dying of a
broken heart at the state farm. AS a
matter of fact, and the information
comes direct from an official employed
on the state farm and who sees Strip
pling daily, there is no substance IN
such statements.
Stripping does worry much about
his family, this official states, but the
mans general health is no worse than
when he went to the state farm AS is
known, Stripping was much broken
by his ordeal and by the final action
OF Governor Brown in refusing him a
pardon.
The fact that his family, now living
in Columbus, is not well provided for
occasions him great deal of personal
worry. AS a matter of fact, it is stat
ed, the condition of the family is not
Sc serious as has been intimated in
some of the papers. Two daughters
are grown and able to earn fair wag-
es, One daughter married but the
match did not prove a happy one and
the couple separated One boy is al
most grown and should be a fair
W learner. 1t is said also that
Mrs. Stripping is a very fine manager,
and all of these facts combined should
prevent abject want from obtruding on
the family.
The above is printed in order to cor
rect erroneous impressions sent out

ate facts like many others attempted

NO DOUBT OF The IDENTITY
Agent Where Car Was Robbed
Sees Men

Montgomery, Ala, March 13.-John
Williamson, Harry Marks and Frank
Moore, three of the alleged yeggmea
arrested in Montgomery on informa-
ton of Capt. Hollis Hurley, of Ameri-
Gus, Ca, and now confined in cells at
police headquarters, have been identi-
fed by l.. Poole, chief mail clerk OF
the Alabama Great Southern railroad
train which was robbed recently, as
the men who entered the mail car the
day the train was held up and robbed.
Mr.. Poole came to Montgomery to-
day and visited headquarters. Chief
Taylor took him into the assembly
room and had the prisoners brought
before him one by one. After looking
them vefy carefully Mr. Poole pointed
out Williamson, Marks and Moore as
three men who looked strikingly sim
liar to those who entered his mail ca"
when the train was robbed. The fourth
man, ]. NJ Todd, he failed to identify
saying he had never seen him before.
Wednesday, DR.. P. N. Martin, of
Woodstock, Ala, surgeon of the rail-
way, identified Williamson as the
strange man he had seen in Wcowstock
u short distance from the scene of the
robbery a few hours before it occur
red. With the Identification of Will
hanson by the physician, and William
son, Marks and Moore by Mr.. Poole,
the mail clerk, it is believed by Chief
Taylor that strong net is gradually
being drawn around the alleged yegg-
men which will connect them with the
robbery of the A. G. S. train and the
theft of over hundred thousand dol
lars.
