A call to Industrial workers OF the

stepped forward and informed the men

One of them, evidently spokesman
for the party, began arguing with the
sheriff and then made a speech. Ap.

HAD NO LYNCHING
 IN OVER 30 YEARS
Injustice Done Livingston in Publica- ton of Item From That City
 Yesterday

livingston has not had a lynchins in the last 30 years, according to cit izens of that community, so that an injustice was done this city yester- day by the publication of an account of lynching many miles from that city
 Mayor T. F. Scale wires The Age Herald that the alleged lynching oc- cured near the Mississippi state line. The account of the affair was sent out from Livingston and the mistake oc- cured in the headlines.
 Fred H. Jones writes:
 "Boyd's station is about nine miles from Livingston, near the Mississippi line, and the alleged lynching is said to have occurred about two miles from Boyd's station and there is no evil dence or even an intimation that the people of Livingston nor of Sumter county, nor even of Alabama, had any thing whatever to do with this affair
 Not a man, woman or child of Liv- ingston knew anything of this un- fortunate affair until 8 o'clock Tues day morning, 12 hours after it is said to have occurred, and then only when the sheriff was notified by phone by one of the most reliable, law abiding citizens of our county to come and in vestigate."

LATEST U RETURNS
 GIVE LARGER LEAD
Local Option Candidate Ger tain to Win by About
 10000 Majority

New Orleans, January 26-Additional returns received today and tonight from yesterdays statewide demo- cratic primary failed to reduce the lead of Ruffin G. Pleasant of Shreve- port, present attorney general, over Thomas c. Barrett, also of Shreveport, present lieutenant governor, for the gubernatorial nomination. MT. Pleas ants majority was estimated at 10000. MT. Barrett tonight sent a telegram to MT. Pleasant conceding his defeat. The state election will be held April IS.
 The contest for lieutenant governor apparently has narrowed down to two of the five aspirants, Fernand Mouton of Lafayette and Ferd Claiborne of Newroads. MT. Mouton received ap- Orleans, but MT. Claiborne's country vote may overcome this lead. It prob ably will require complete returns to determine the result of this contest
 There was unusual delay in the re- turns from the country parishes owing to the length of the ballot and interest taken in local issues.
 In the absence of fuller details it is not possible to approximate the ma- jorities for candidates for the other state offices but there seemed no doubt of the nomination of the entire reg ular' ticket as indicated last night.
 With New Orleans complete and re- turns from 43 of the 64 parishes of the state incomplete the vote for lieutenant governor late tonight stood:
 Mouton, 29043; Claiborne, IS, ,705; l.. Aus tin Fontenot, 10,S64; Porteous R. Burke, 8677 Hughes J. De La Verge, 1209
 Indications tonight were that a second primary would be necessary to decide the contest.

 Hand to hand fighting between the French and Germans near Melville took place when the French tried to retake trenches captured from them by the Germans.

 On the Austro-Italian front Italian positions near Oslavia have been cap tured by the Austrians, who made prisoners of 45 officers and 1197 men, according to Vienna.

 Notification

Tuscaloosa, January 26.-(Special) 1 A get together banquet was held last night under the auspices of the Tus- caloosa Board of Trade, which was at tended by 300 citizens of Tuscaloosa. The question of whether or not the centennial celebration and the univer- sity commencement should be held jointly and at the same time was de- cided unanimously that the two oc- casions should be held jointly, every person present voting in favor of this ] joint celebration. The centennial dates will, therefore be May 29, 30 and 31 Centennial enthusiasm ran high at the meeting last night and every man and woman present pledged themselves to work to make this occasion the great est of its kind ever held in the state of Alabama. The various committees in charge of the centennial celebration number over 200 men and women and they are already at work on plans for this great event. President Denny, on behalf of the university, stated that the
 university would use every effort to make this occasion one of ome-coming
 for the university alumni, and every
 effort will be made to bring them back
 once more to their alma mater.
 President A. S. VandeGraaff of the
 Board of Trade presided over the ban
 quet. Speeches were made by F. G.

 Postmaster Sam F. Clabaugh intro duced a resolution at the meeting of
 the Tuscaloosa Board of Trade last night inviting the Secretary of War and
 the Secretary of the Navy to visit Tus-
 caloosa at the time Tuscaloosa cele- brates it's one hundredth anniversary next May. His resolution calls for
 this invitation to be extended by a
 committee representing the Tuscaloosa Board of Trade Every effort will be made to induce these distinguished men to visit Tuscaloosa on that occasion. J. w. Greer of Moultrie, Ga, who is an authority on packing houses, is in Tuscaloosa today, having been invited here by citizens who are interested in the building of plant here. Mr. Greer, after Investigating conditions here,
 stated thar Tuscaloosa was an ideal place for tie location of such a plant. He stated that the surrounding coun- try at Moultrie, Ga., was not near so well suited to support a packing house as is the farm lands of Tuscaloosa, and that at Moultrie, Ga, big success had been made of the business. A great quantity of live stock is already being raised in Tuscaloosa county and a pack 1 ing house is said to be one of the great est needs of the county. Local citizens are Investigating the matter thoroughly 1 and if they find the erection of a plant feasible a packing house will be l built here.

OPINION ON PREPAREDNESS

A communication recently made by a1l-
 ary A. Herbert, who, after long service
 as representative in Congress from Ala
 bama, became Secretary of the Navy in
 the second administration of President Cleveland, is in entire accord with public opinion in the east and especially in New York upon the subject of preparedness. MT. Herbert was commonly regarded as a worthy uccesSor-although after the lapse of a republican administratlon-of William c. Whitney, who, as Secretary of the Navy in President Clevelands first administration achieved so greatly in undermining and building up the Ameri- can navy. There are no occasions in New York when preparedness is mentioned or suggested without meeting with fine dem-
 onstrations of public approval
 A great company was assembled in one of the largest theatres a few evenings ago, and upon the screen was thrown a picture of the pre-eminent representative l of the policy of peace or unpreparedness Although he formerly was popular idol | the picture was received in absolute sf- | lence. There followed it a picture of one 1 who is commonly esteemed the foremost | advocate of thorough preparation and the | legend under the picture intimated that l it had been thrown upon the screen for l the purpose of bringing the policy of l preparedness to the attention of the spec 1 tators. There was instant demonstration 1 of approval, and in this demonstration | everyone took part.
 l Former Secretary Herbert. in his com munication. advocates precisely the same policy of preparation which many now l in public life and which, especially Colo i nel Roosevelt. so cordially advocates. One
 of the most significant statements is this: | Tt was undoubtedly the unpreparedness | of the allies that caused Germany and 1 Austria to make war against nations | which had really twice their fighting i strength; but in the face of all this evil dence our pacifist of today thinks that | it was the competition in preparedness | that bred this terrible war. He insists that the way to prevent war is for a
 nation not to prepare for war at all, but 1 to be good and set an example, like an 1 individual, of fair dealing and of justice | to all."
 l With this as an introduction. and as-
 sured of public opinion, one of the great l est Secretaries of the Navy, a democrat ] of the south, goes on to show what the
 necessity for preparedness is and that one of the factors in this work is the ! establishment in proper locations of ,ade-
 quate munitions plants.

SHIP PURCHASE BILL
 HAS BRIGHT CHANGE OF PASSAGE; WILSON CALLS ON LEADERS
Continued from Page one>

Senate probably would not consider the shipping bill until after it was acted on by the House. He said he favored the Presidents tariff commits sion proposal because of unusual trade conditions that will prevail after the European war. Were it not for the extraordinary conditions that must be met, he said, he would think a special tariff commission unnecessary.
