!SSUEA PROCLAMATION
But that Will be the End of his
Dream. The law Abiding El
ments, Pops, Repubs and
Democrat, are Agreed
on That
Montgomery, Ala., Nov. 27. —
There will not be the sligntest dis
turbance on inauguration day for
two very gooa reasons.
First, there is no cause for chal
lenging the result of the election
as declared on thw official count.
Many of the most intelligent pop
ulist and republican leaders admit
Colonel Oates’s election.
•‘Second it is known that the au
thorities are thoroughly prepared
to stamp out any disorder We art
not in Mexico, where any petty
thief can issue a prouounciameuto
and rally any res|ectable number
of people to his standard of revolt.
Armed bands, even if they could
be gotten together, would not be
permitted to come to the capital.
“Possibly the defeated candi
date may take the oath of office
somewhere, before a justice of the
peace on inauguration day, and
even go to the extent of issuing a
proclamation as governor, but
this would be just ns harmless
and have as little effect as the do
ings of patients in insane hospit
als, who imagine themselves
crowned heads.
Tbe report that the authorities
contemplated arrested the defeated
candidate for treason if he shook
lake the oath of office and claim to
be governor, is without any foun
dation. The state authorities wil
deal only with overt acts or resist
ance of the constituted authorities.
