Governor Johnston. will be elected -fS7 ; Senator Pettus's term would have ex- pired in 1909, and he had already been elected for the term beginning at that time and expiring in 1915.
 Talk of Others for Full Term.
 There are some who are interJecting g the question as to whether the election of ex-Gov. Johnston will be also for the term beginning in 1909, and for this reason there has cropped up an opin- ion that some aspirant may seek to be elected to the high office of United States Senator after the 1909 term shall have expired.
 Among the members of the Legisla- ture there was little doubt on this point interviewed on the subject were of the opinion that MT. Johnston will be elect ed for the term that will end in 1915, as well as to fill out the unexpired term of Senator Pettus.
 Ex-Gov. Johnston reached this city last night and had a conference with a number of the members of both houses. The nature of that conference MT. Johnston declined to state. and shielded himself. as did Col Bankhead with the statement that 1t would not be in keeping with propriety for him to have anything to say until after the funeral of Senator Pettus.
 There are several matters before both House and Senate that must be dis posed of today if the bills that are to be considered are to become laws. The House has before 1t two adjourned questions. that of an improved jury service, a matter that is considered to be of vital importance, and question of publishing local laws enacted in the newspapers that are affected by those laws.
 Argument on both of these questions will occupy much of the time of the House today and although that argu- ment was started as a filibusterlhs tactic as far as the bill concerning newspaper publication is concerned, the members of the House have begun 10 realize that this is really an import ant measure and its provisions VIII De well thrashed over.
