KOLB ASKS ALABAMA
FOB GOVERNOR'S OFFICE
Issues Announcement on Re
trenchment and Anti-Prohi
bition Revival Platform
(Special Dispatch to The Journal.)
MONTGOMERY, Ala., Nov. 23.—De
claring himself in favor of retrenchment
and against the revival of the prohibi
tion question in the next state cam
paign, Reuben F. Kolb, commissioner
of agroculture, Saturday afternoon an
nounced his candidacy for governor.
The formal announcement was made
as a follow-up of a stareihent made to
newspaper men several weeks ago. "In
a newspaper interview several months
ago I made a tentative announcement of
my candidacy for governor,*’ stated
Captain Kolb. "At that time I briefly
outlined some of the thjngs which my
candidacy would Aaiid for and which
would be favored and advocated by me
in the event of my nomination and
election- It is proper for me now, in
that the subject of gubernatorial suc
cession is becoming one of popular
concern, to say that my partially formed
purpose of some months ago to become
a candidate for governor, is now Anal
and definite and I take this occasion
of publicly announcing the same and
will prosecute at the proper time an ag
gressive and vigorous canvass for the
honor which that high and responsible
office represents.”
FIRST ANNOUNCEMENT.
The announcement in th* first to be
made for the office as Governor O’Neal’s
successor.- Several names have been
mentioned In connection with the race
during the past few months, among
them being former Governor E. B. Co
mer, Lieutenant Governor Walter D.
Seed and Charles Henderson, president
of the railroad commission, but Captain
Kolb is the first man to place his name
before citizens as a candidate ._
Planks in Mr., Kolb’s platform pro
vide for the saving of as much money
as possible for tax-payers, revision of
the judicial system by the consolidation
of courts, discontinuation of some of
the normal and other schools that are
unnecessary, proper care for Confed
erate soldiers without embarrassment
to the state, adoption of laws that will
aid agricultural - advancement, appro
priation of enough money to maintain
public school system, improvement of
public highways, rigid enforcement of
prohlbitnon laws, peace between state
and railroads and correction of any
abuse that hat resulted from the ere
ation of offices to satisfy the greed of
officeholders axxd-pf floeseekers.
"In my previous annoncement I fea
tured the subject of retrenchment as a
present and positive need to the people
of the state and- one that calls largely
for their attention and action,” stated
Captain Kolb, "something must be done
to stop the era of extravagance into
which the creation of official sinecures
has plunged the people. ’>ne tust for
office, it would shpm. has reached the
climax of madness 3n the many needless
positions of emoluments that the tax
payers are burdened with sustaining,
not to conserve their interests, but to
administer to the selfish ambitions of
the place seeker. There was never a
time when the'rhf*’fdr public office has
provoked us to a wfder sweep of legis
lative extravagance than is ' evident in
..the mulUpLjcatiqar- of .- jobs by .the two
last legislatures. „ • • •
RAILROAD POLICY.
“My policy regarding the railroads,
if elected governor, would be based on
ideas of the state’s right to regulate
these corporations within the limits of
mutual justice and fairness. There
should be no conflict between the com
monwealth and these great servitors of
her material interests."
In ending his statement Captain Kolb
referred to the two campaigns now his
tory in which he took a leading part.
He said, “there are thousands of Ala
bama Democrats who would support my
candidacy In this campaign who were
bitterly arrayed against me in times
past. They will do it from conviction
that it is right to redress wrongs,
though those wrong* iie away baek in
a stormy and titrtAd' past. • • • If
it pleases the people of Alabama to hon
or ms by their esCH to this lofty sta
tion, I pledge them a record of service
as governor that will conform to the
highest ideal of a safe, economical and
business administration, recognizing as
I do that it lsV>n "such an administra
tion that the state must hopefully and
courageously depend for salvaton from
the conditions that, row beset it.”
Captain Kolb Was a candidate for
governor abotit ttventy years ago but
was defeated by Thomas G. Jones, after
a stobmy campaign which resulted la
the splitting of the Democratic party.

Aged Farmer's Visit
To Atlanta Recalls
• Town of Marthasville
John R. Johnston, a farmer, of Chero
kee county, aged seventy-seven years,
visited Atlanta Saturday and marvel
led at its growth. He was a visitor
here in the year 1845, when the place
was known as Marthasville, and had
only two wooden shanty stores as its
business district.
So greatly has the place grown Mr.
Johnston was unable to locate the site
where the two shanties once stood. He
used to haul his poultry and grain to
Marthasville to market as during those
days there was no railroad near his
place.
Although Mr. Johnston is seventy
seven years of age he made a good
crop this year and many a day was
found laboring in the fields helping in

TAFT TRUST PROGRAM
WILL BE REVIEWED
< (By Associated Pt*m.)
WASHINGTON, Nov. 33.—A complete
resume of the “trust” prosecution* pro
gram of President Taft’s administration
will be contained in the forthcoming
annual report of Attorney General
Wickersham. Particular emphasis will
be laid upon th* anti-trust record of
the past four years during which sev
enty anti-trust suits were instituted,
while the combined total of the admin
istrations of Presidents Harrison t Cleve
land, McKinley and Roosevelt was six
ty-two. Os the seventy cases brought
by Mr. Wickersham thirty-nine were
criminal prosecutions and thirty-one civ
il suits.
In the opinion of the attorney gen
eral, the efficacy of the Sherman law
as a criminal statute depends in large
measure upon the result of several
cases, which are now pending. When the
verdicts in these issues are rendered,
the attorney general believes that a
correct estimate of the criminal phase
of the law can be made.
