K|LDY'S FRIENDS PARED WELL IN
 TUESDAY PRIMARY
Most of the Governors Ap- pOintees Were IndOrsed for Reelection at
 Poles
By FRED H. GORMLEY

Montgomery, May 15.-(Special)-Re- turns received up to noon Saturday indi- cate that the state administration fared well in the primary election Tuesday. A majority of the appointees of Governor IIilby received the indorsement of the democratic voters for the unexpired term or for new terms beginning in January.
 Tn only one contest was the adinmistra- ton directly involved. Sam r, Kennedy, president of the public service commits sion. made his race on the platform that he was opposed to the state administra- tion and it's policies. All of his cam paign material bore the state "the anti Kilby candidate" He was defeated by A. G. Patterson, a friend of the admin tration. In this connection it must be stated that Mr. Patterson also received the support of a large number of mer- chants and jobbers who were opposed to Governor KRby and his financlaI policy enacted into law by the legislature. How. ever, general recognition was given to the fact that MT. Kennedy was running in opposition to the administration poli- cies.
 Judge Henry P. Merritt of the court of appeals was an appointee of Governor Kilby. Returns indicate that he has a safe lead over his two opponents. Judge Merritt as speaker of the house of repre- sentatives last year made the fight on the floor of the house which resulted in the passage of the general revenue law

Bessemer, May 15.-(SpeciaD.-T city democratic executive committee will meet at the council chamber in the city hall on Monday evening at o'clock for the purpose of arranging details of the city primary, which will likely be held about June 20 The chairman, Rush Randall, invites those interested in the matter to attend and offer, suggestions.
 The date for the city primary has been postponed until after the county primary, the local primary being overshadowed by the interest in the state and county elections.
 Now that the county primary is over, it is expected that city politics will be- gin to occupy the attention of the voters of the city. Only two candidates have announced for the office of mayor, the incumbent, Mayor B. c. Jones, and T. J. Batson, former sheriff of Jefferson coun- ty, but the friends of other men are urging them to enter the race, among those likely to be candidates being Dr. R. P. McTyere and Benagh Iiliman aid rman from the fifth ward.

after it had been held up by the opposi- tion for several weeks.
 In Jefferson county two appointees of the governor received the indorsement of the voters. Judge Horace C. Wilkinson was nominated for the full unexpired term as circuit judge without opposition. Judge Richard V. Evans, also an ap- pointee as circuit judge, defeated two op- ponents.
 Probate Judge NJ. A. Graham of Au- tauga county was reelected circuit judge by a small majority. He was appointed to this office late last year. In Russell county Judge L. H. Boykin defeated B. dec. Waddeu for the unexpired term as probate judge. Judge Boykin was ap- pointed by the governor. MT. Waddell, as a member of the legislature, opposed the administration plans for the raising of revenue.
 Judge John D. Leigh, appointed judge Of the new Twenty-frst circuit last year, received big majority for the full term. Judge B. K. McMorris. who was named judge of the Nineteenth circuit byN the governor. defeated two opponents.
 Returns so far received indicate the de- feat of only three appointees of the gov ernor. Later returns may show a change in the record already established.
 Judge Joel B. Brown. elevated from judge of the court of appeals to associate justice Ol lIle SuIitBlt NOuib ny th1 bpN- ernor last year. was defeated for the full unexpired term by Judge B. M. Mill Ter Judge Miller seems to have such a lead over Judge Brown that late returns cannot change the result.
 Judge William L. Martin of the Mont gcmery circuit court, appointed last year was defeated for a full term by Walter B. Jones, who opposed the adminstra- tion while a member of the house of rep resentatives.
 Taswel T. Shepherd, who was appoint ed judge of the inferior civil and crimipal court by the governor early this year did not survive the primary election.
