POLITICAL AND OTHER
GOSSIP OF THE CAPITAL.
BY HERVEY w. LAIRD,

Montgomery, November 10-(Special) =
With the passage of election day, Ala
bama now settles down to business on the
one side, and the discussion of what will
probably be done by the next legislature
on the other A great many changes at
the capitol will result from the coming in
of the new administration next January.
The election of B. b. Conner as governor
will mean that he must appoint a presl-
dent of the railroad commission to succeed
himself, and also appoint a number of Of
ficials which falls TO the lot of the chief
executive of the state. Anything that can
be said just now is largely speculative,
of course though it is understood that
Mr. Conner is to appoint w. d. Nesbitt of
Birmingham head of the railroad commits
sion. Other than this he has not ex-
pressed himself in any public way.
One of the most important positions
which the new governor will have to fill
will be that of his own private secretary.
This position pays 81, 400 year, and is one
of the most exacting of all the list Ia
the nature of the case, the private secre-
tary must often assume the function of
the chief executive until the latter can be
located, if he is out of the city 1t, there
fore, makes it necessary for the man who
holds this place to be one of good judg-
ment in all matters that are likely to
come before him. This is a personal ap-
pointment, and for that reason few men
have been mentioned in connection with
It, and the belief is that none of those
who have been considered by the public
will be selected unless the lot should fail
to w. E. Fort of Birmingham, who has
done valiant service for Mr.. Conner in
many ways, his last work being assistant
chairman of the state campaign commit
tee. During his performance of the latter
position Mr.. Fort added to the number Of
friends he had already made in various
counties of the state by his uniform court
esq and attention.
Supreme Court.
The fall term of the supreme court will
meet next Monday for a call of the first
division, composed of the counties of Bald
win, Clarke, Mobile, Monroe and Wash
ington. The court will assemble under the
guidance of Chief Justice S. d. Weakley,
and the old judges will sit for the first
week. probably the first ten days By that
time the certificates of election of the new
judges will have come in, and the court
will organize then with the men recently
elected. The only new face that will be
seen on the bench will be that of Thomas
4. Mcclellan, nephew of the late lamented
Chief Justice Mcclellan. John r. Tyson,
former associate justice, at present assn
ciate justice, will be chief justice of the
new court, succeeding S. ID. Weakley, VIII
retires. The new tribunal will therefore
be made up as follows: Chief Justice,
