 Comes the defendant, the Louisville and Nashville Railroad Company. and moves the court to modify the decrees heretofore rendered by 1t on the 10th of March, 1905, insofar as said de- crees or either of them, enJoin or re- strain this defendant the Louisville and Nashville Railroad Company, from vot- ing the capital stock of. the South and North Alabama Railroad Company, owned and held by 1t in or for the cleo ton of directors of the South and North Alabama Railroad Company, or in tor any matter or matters whatso- ever not involving the sale of the prop erty of the South and North Alabama Railroad Company to the Louisville and Nashville Railroad Company, or, any contract or agreement proposed to be made or entered into by and between the South and North Alabama Railroad Company on the one part and the Louisville and Nashville Railroad Com- pany on the other.

 The proposition of passing a gener- al municipal bill for the making of a State municipal code Is one of the most tic11lish matters with which the Legis. lature has to do.

Lawmakers of Alabama have put off The Constitutional Conv -ntion direct towns and cities of the state and pro- vide system of government for each each years ago took up the matter blithely and hopefully. It looked like such an easy thing to do. But they found that the question had dynamite in 1t. Here was the trouble Every town and every city had different kind of government For instance in some cit les the Chief of Police was elected by the people. In others he was chosen by the City Council and in others by the Police Commission. Political ma chimes had been built "n around cer- tain forms of municipal government The crowd that was In was standing faithfully by the old forms and they were making life burden for their members of the Legislature.
 The Legislature was bluffed. They wrestled with the question throughout the session and then quit without hay ing a municipal code.
 History repeated itself at the winter session of the present legislature. The lawmakers took a fall out of the muni- cipaI code every now and then. but nothing definite was doing So they gave them the question and went home. Now this committee is com pleting its work and will put the bill before the Legislature to be passed during the thirteen days of the July ses- sion.
