The opposition to the new constitution of Alabama opposes. It's purpose Is to change or insofar as possible ignore cer- tain terms of this instrument of organic law; and it is possible that & legislative majority could be elected which would disregard the inhibition against the cleo tion of the Governor to the United States Senate and be positively certain that the Senate would seat the Senator.
 As for the Governorship of Alabama. the plea is being made by some of those who seek to oppose Mr. Jelks that in view of the legislation that will abe neces sary to give full force and effect to the new constitution lawyer should be chosen Goyernoh
 The truth is, MT. Jelks enjoys the value of legal education, and probably he has been admitted to the bar, though this latter point cannot be settled in this place with any degree of certainty. At any rate, he studied law In Washington twenty years ago and subsequently took the summer law course at the University of Virginia Most likely he continued his law studies at his home in Eufaula. Be- sides, he has been a close general stu dent, an active and successful newspaper editorial writer in which occupation ev- cry man learns considerable law; and for a time he was an influential lawmaker of Alabama. Thus 1t Is absurd. and worse
