KOLB HARMLESS. \ He may Take the Oath of Offi: For Governor and !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.
