Washington, March Rehabilitation of the Panama canal treaty by the Senate has increased materially the pressure on the President for appointment on the commission which Is to supervise the construction of the water way. Several Senators had interviews today with the President regarding the personnel of the commission. It Is understood that the President will be in no haste to announce the names of the commission and it Is likely that no absolute decision will be reached respecting its personnel until the treaty shall have been ratified by the Colombian Congress which will not con- vene for several weeks.

Easement; how established by pre- scriptiOn.-In order for an easement to be established by prescription, the user and enjoyment and the right claimed must have been adverse to the owner of the estate from which the easement Is claimed under the claim of right adverse, exclusive, continuous and uninterrupted' and with knowledge and acquiescence by the person against whom 1t Is claimed; and the user of a right which Is merely permissive or held under an implied li- cense from the owner of the estate can never ripen into title by prescription.

PRIMARY AT oPELIKA.
Municipal Election Will Be Held
 Next Monday,

Opelika, March 1S.-(Special.) )-The city primary for Mayor, Aldermen, two school trustees and a city executive committee VIII occur Monday and considerable in- terest Is manifested. There are two good men running for mayor with no issue at all and sixteen worthy citizens are on the two tickets for the eight aldermanic positions
 Mayor Palmer and his entire ticket are candidates for the re-nomination and election. while the ticket headed by J. B. Lyons, candidate for mayor is given out as follows: Aldermen, J. NJ. Burt, J. B. Fielder. J. w. Williams. Jr., B. R. BooIer. D c. M Warner, H. A. Bedell, B. F: Ingram, D. s. Robertson. These are all well known men and their friends are working vigorously for them as are the friends of the other candidates helping out their side. Monday the people viii vote on the bonds for the new school house. Four hundred and thirty voters have registered and the books will close Friday night.
 Several important suits were filed here today in the circuit court against well known men. The plaintiff in the case IS Thomas J. Wesley administrator of the estate of L. P. Grant of Atlanta Ga.' who once owned nearly all of opelika against several prominent citi- zens and the two main railways. In one case he sues L. B. Whitfield and the Central of Georgia Railway. also the same road and H. G. Gift. also the same road and J. w. Zuber and A. B. and w. 5; Griffin and the Western Railway of Alabama The suits are for the recovery of lands and the damages. The in- dividuals named conduct different indus tries on land they rented from the rail roads and which the administrator of the Grant estate claims as being part of the estate. A long and lively litigation will likely follow as the roads will probably defend their tenants rights in the premises. Barnes and Duke of this city and Robert c. Aston of Atlanta repre- sent the plaintiff.

An Editors Experience

We was glancin' over an old file of
the Jackson Albanian tother day
When we met UP with the following
account of pieded hoop snake, fer
that's what this so-called "stingin"
snake is pure and simple:
"Bettis Danzey killed genuine
singing snake while fishing on the op.
posite side of the river one day last
week. The reptile was about five
and half feet long and of pieded'
color, being deep red with splotches
of blue black. and it's sting was
pressed from it's blunt tail till it pro-
truded fully an inch. The species of
snake is very rare. The writer saw
one in Eastern Texas nearly forty
years ago, but has never seen but this
one. The sting of this serpent is said
to be deadly, though we never heard
of any one falling victim to it's
wound"

Alabama can produce in the way of
snakes, but, bein a native of Texas.
