The Southern Deprived of Right
to Do Business in Alabama.
U. S. JUDGE ENJOINS STATE
Drastic Action Taken Against the
Southern For Removing Suit From a
State 10 Il Federal court-Another
Step In Fight Against Railroads.

Birmingham. Ala. Aug 3-The
state of Alabama. through Frank ~
Julian. secretary OF state. has reyok-
ed the license of the Southern Rail
way company to do business in this
state because Of the alleged violation
OF an act passed by the legislature last
March for the further regulation OF
foreign corporations doing business in
Alabama The Southern Railway
company is a Virginia corporation.
The fact I'm question prevents such
corporations from transferring a suit
brought in a state court 10 the fed
against the railroad in Tafiadega
county by a man who claimed dam
ages for alleged personal injuries the
railroad had the case transferred to
the federal court. The clerk OF the
county court at Talladega 80 notified
the secretary of state. who immedi-
atoly cancelled the railroads license.
The law above referred TO was re-
Gently declared unconstitutional by a
federal judge in this state. The case
is extremely complicated and the A.
tion OF the state authorities Is another
step in the nsht of Governor Conner
and his administration on the rail-
roads
An extra session OF the legislature
will be held In the fail to adopt more
stringent railroad regulation laws tc
meet the situation created by the vari
GUS rate regulation laws being enjoin
| ed In the federal courts.
The license of the Southern 10 do
business in Alabama was cancelled by
Secretary OF State Julian Although
the action is productive Of condi-
tion similar TO that existing in North
Carolina. IL differs in that Il brings
the matter 60 a direct issue between
state and federal authorities. and is
impossible of compromise as was the
case in the Tar Heel" state The cas-
involves endless complications.
Federal Judge Jones has granted an
Injunction against the operation OF
the state law. The secretary Of state
however, was not included in the en-
| Joining proceeding. As result. he
cannot be prosecuted for contempt in
HIS revocation act. Nevertheless the
attorncy-general must execute the re-
voking proceedings. which will rem
der him liable for contempt.

than 1900 miles OF road in Alabama

humorous minded do not always give
the sober philosophy OF the solemn
sages quite the credit they deserve.
And the worst of it is that there is
no way Of absolutely deciding where
merit belongs ana where the greatest
need OF praise is due. No committee
was ever known to be fnfallible The
men who in England omitted the names
of Dickens, Thackery and Fielding in
favor of Grabbed old Carlyle and Lord
Macaulay, and who are getting so
much censure for their omission, would

There never was a county fair pulled

even more clamor, than has been raised

There never was a baby show or a
horse show. nor a hen show, nor a
beauty contest that did not result in
more heart burnings, Indignation and

then expect one committee to select
