 TO PETITION PRESIDENT.
Selma Agsin Has the Baseball Fever and Efforts are Being MaGe te Eater Gotten States
 League.

Selma, Jan. 29.--(Special)--A peti- ton from the Dallas Bar Association, which will oppose the reappointment Of Judge Hundley as judge of the Northern Division of the United States Court In Alabama, win tomorrow be forwarded to the proper Congressional Committee in Washington.
 The lawyers of Dallas county are almost as unit opposed to the reap pointment of Judge Hundley and they hope that he will not be renominated by President Roosevelt.
 Practically every member of the Dallas Bar Association signed the pe- ton when 1t was presented during the past few days. Two or three of the members did not sign 1t for political reasons and on account of friendship for Judge Hundley. The petition will be sent to Washington by Hon. L.. E. Jeffries. a prominent member of the Dallas Bar Association.
 Besides the petition which has been circulated among the lawyers of the city opposing the reappointment of Judge Hundley, nearly every member of the bar association has received eesolutions and requests from the dif- ferent Alabama Congressmen asking them to work and use all efforts to oppose the appointment Of Judge Hundley. Nearly every member of the bar association is now working with this end In view and they are of the opinion that the united efforts of all of the lawyers of the State will have some weight in the matter and that the present incumbent will not be ap- pointed.
