WANTS TAXATION
 ON PROPER BASIS
George B. Tarrant Tells Why He Think Conner Should Be Nom-
 A/ mated for Governor
. the Editor of The Age-Herald:

ffo the Editor of The Age-Herald:
 One of the reasons why I am for MT. Conner is that I believe he will give us a better system of taxation.
 Everyone who is familiar with our pres- ent system knows that it is cumbersome. inefficient and wasteful. What we need is tax rate low enough to be equit- able to all classes of property owners, assessed and collected in manner that will give the state the largest net re- turns. We can trust Mir. Conner to do this for us-
 I am also for MT. Conner because I be- lieye he will give Alabama an administra- ton that is clean, economical and pro- gressive-one that will make for the material and moral advancement of the state. Very truly yours GEORGE B. TARRANT. \ Birmingham, May 2, 1914

Weather Conditions

Birmingham, May 2.-G p. m.)-Barome- tric changes are occurring rather slowly in all sections, and as a result weather changes have not occurred as rapidly as was expected. A long area of low baro- metric pressure occupies the western val leys and portions of the Rocky mountains on tonight's map. It is being preceded by general rain over the western DOT tion of the Mississippi valley, that promies to extend across the eastern half of the country within the next two days. How ever, it is not very probable that we will have rainfall in any considerable DOT tion of Alabama Sunday.
 Temperature changes have been gen. orally small. There is nothing to indi- cate any rapid temperature Nhange in Alabama within the next 36 hours. About normal conditions for this season of the year are looked for.

Montgomery, May 2.-(Special. )-Charles Hendersons claims for the gubernatorial nomination will be presented next week to people in every section of the state by a score of speakers who will be on the stump in MT. Henderson, behalf MT. Henderson will spend the greater part of the week in southeast Alabama, | and will go to Birmingham on Saturday for an immense rally that night. when he
 will make final appeal 3 the voters of Jefferson county. Another"speaker at the Jefferson county rally will bc Capt. Reu- ben F. Kolb, wh will urge his friends and supporters to vote for the Troy candi- date
 Captain Kolb will spend the early part of the week in north Alabama, and will speak in Etowah. Marengo, Lauderdale and Colbert counties.
 Other speakers who will take the stump next week for MT. Henderson are Oscar s. Lewis of Tuskegee, W. l.. Pitts of Uniontown, Lloyd Tate of Wetumpka, w. H. Sanford of Montgomery. Zack I. Drake of Huntsville, Frank s. Stone of Baldwin, Harris s. Seed of Selma, E. H.
 Hill of Dothan, c. P. Mcintyre of Mont gomery and others.
 Henderson Managers Confident
 Managers of Mir. Hendersons campaign are confident of their candidates success in the primary on May Ii. They estimate his majority at between 15,000 and 10000, claiming that MT. Henderson will carry 4S counties in the state.
 According to announcement at Hender- sons headquarters here, MT. Conner will only carry the Seventh congressional dis fripf all "a qt n uta fo going to Henderson. They estimate MT. Comer's majority in the Seventh dis trict at 250 votes
 The Conner managers are equally san- guine of the former governors success though they are not making the claims that are heard in the rival headquar- ters Gen. Bibb Graves local manager for MT. Conner, insists that Conner will win by a nice majority. The Conner follow CTS maintain that it will be impossible for Henderson to overcome the lead of 12,- 900 votes which the. former governor ob- tained in the first primary. The Tender son supporters maintain that it can be done with all ease. claiming that Conner has lost many votes since the primary and that if Is not so much a question of defeating him as it is one of the extent of Hendersons majority.
 The betting in Montgomery favors Hen derson'. although the Conner people have not been backward in taking money on their candidates chances. During the week s10,0O0 was offered on Henderson, but it was not taken. Another man off, fered s50OO to $45OO on Henderson without success
 Little Interest in Other Races
 Apparently little interest is being mani Tested in the races for attorney general and commissioner of agriculture. William l.. Martin is conceded the winner of the first by a tremendous majority, and it is thought that Dr. A. A. Persons of Besse- mer is leading J. A. Wade for commis- sioner of agriculture. However, that race may prove exceedingly close, with chances favoring pr. Persons.
