Sit- ii.-itti.il Cliiimln'rs For Clu j ton. Chambers Tribune. Dawson and Clayton are the leading can didates for governor. The number of dele gates known to be for them is much greater thtm the number of those who will vote tor the other candidates, so that it is rea sonably certain that one of these two will be nominated. We arc satisfied that the people of this county would prefer Clayton to Dawson, and that as between these two, if the wish es of our people are represented in Hie con vention, the r ote of Chambers county will be given for Clayton. And the majority of the people of this county prefer Clayton to any of the other candidates. McKleroy I has many friends in this county, but there are a great many who actively oppose him ' and will work to prevent his nomination. Dawson has a few friends, but the mass of I the people are indifferent to him. Seay is very popular with those who ! know him and have watched his career, i and he lias no enemies, but he is not much known outside of those who have been in j public life. Gen. Clayton is widely known | and universally liked. Our people arc 1 familiar with his history and know him to \ have been a brave soldier, an upright . judge and nil honorable man. and they ne- ! lieve that ho will make a good governor, j HOW THE HOYS STAND. Selma Times. A young Seimian who is now attending I school at the state university writes: “1 ' know the Times is a Dawson organ, and I j am a Dawson man. For this reason 1 con cluded to canvass barracks and see how the > vote stood here, q'he following was the re- i suit: Dawson, first choice f>S, second choice ' 3S; Clu.'. ion. first choice 28, second choice 28; Mi Kh roy. first choice 1H, second choice 13; Be.'iy, first choice, ‘J4; second choice, 35. About sixteen disclaimed to have a first choice. When the fact is considered that i nearly every county in the state is repre sented here by some of its most intelligent sons, these figures are not without signifi cance. Dawson, ius first choice, more than doubles cither of the other candidates.” ACCOMMODATIONS. Mi.biie Register. The Montgomery Advertiser says: “As the hall of the house of representatives is ; too smali to seat 722 men, where to Hold the slate democratic convention is a ques tion now agitating the executive com mittee.
