BOWIE TALKS ON
 CULLMAN CASES
Victory for Anti-Prohibition A. fects No Other County
ISSUE HINGES ON THE DATE
Question of constitutionaIity of Local Option Law Not Raised In Richter Trial, Which Was Con
 cluded Yesterday.

Yesterday morning Judge speake ruled that the local option election in Cullman county, held some time ago, was void, on account of the established fact that the order for said election was is sued within less time before the election than the law requires.
 "Over our protest, this decision was changed in the afternoon, on the state $ motion. because in case of the decision going in favor of the ti-prohibitionists, there was no appeal for the state. In order that the case might be appealed to the supreme court, and there definitely settled, the decision was changed, the validity of the election upheld, and one of the defendants given the lowest fine. $50. without imprisonment The other cases were not acted upon, and will not be until after the decision of the su- preme court.
 "The result of the fight was a victory for the anti-prohibitionists."
 So spoke ex-Congressman Sydney J. Bowie on his return yesterday from Gull man, where he had aided in the defense of the several defendants who were charged with selling whisky without li- eense. As is remembered, the result of the local option" election in Cullman county was victory for the prohibition ists. However, on January 1. Judge Burke issued licenses to nine saloon pro- prietors. These men have been selling whisky since that time. Judge Speake ordered a special term of court for Gull man, and that term had it's beginning this week.
 It was learned from Congressman Bowie, though he was reticent in the discussion, preferring not to be quoted that in spite of reports to the contrary, Judge Speake had upheld the anti-pro- hibtionists as often as he had upheld the other side. He stated, too, that there had been a great deal of enthusiasm and interest on the part of the residents of Cullman, and that they had attended each session in crowds of hundreds.
 In course of the general conversation, Congressman Bowie stated that Judge Speake, during the course of the trial. had expressed doubt concerning the con- stitutionality both of the local option law and the statutory prohibition bill. Asked what effect the original decision of Judge Speake would have had, Con- eressman Bowie stated that the decision as concerns the validity of the election would have had no appreciable effect on the state at large, unless there were other counties in which local option elec- tions had been held in which the same techncality could be raised. He stated, however. that if the constitutionality of
 
 prohibition bill is dsproved, the effect will be great on popular opinion through out the state.
