H. Webb, Mobile, the meet Ing to be held in Birmingham at the Tutwiler hotel next Friday afternoon at o'clock. April 2s.
 The announcement states as the cause for such a meting. that sew eral matters have come before the committee for adjudication and reotification within the last several days.
 Some difficulties are said to have arisen over the state among persons wishing to qualify as candidates for office. in the state democratic primary of August s. some of whom are declared to have failed to adhere to the rules as prescribed by the state commit tee at It's former meeting.
