 Psvea--Plans That
 Are Formfnx.. iF

Tn line with the growth of public interest In civic improvement in Mont gomery, and looking forward to the opening of Lee Street. the property owners of that street will organize soon for the purpose of systematically clean ing up and illuminatine it
 The object of the proposed assocla- ton is to make a fittfng thotoughfare of the street before the old'.frvi8ht de- pot at the foot of the street fssremoved and the street opened Naturally. much of the public travel that mas been done on Commerce Street from the Union station will be transferred to Lee street. and as 1t has been here tofore practically a blind thoroughfare, due to the obstruction of the old depot. there Is need for . great deal of im- provement.
 Many suggestions have been offered for the improvement plans. Although the association has not been formed Efforts win be made to have the cot ton which Is piled in front of ware houses on the street removed 60 far as is feasible to the interior of the warehouses. and many diifpidated billboards will be replaced by neatly painted fences.
 A system of, illumination will be car rfed out. It has been suggested that two or three overhead archways be erected between the union station and the intersection at Montgomery Street. It has been proposed also that muni- cipal electric lamp posts be placed along the most traveled distance on the street, about hundred yards apart. 4

CASTON ANSWERS
REPLIES TO COMMUNICATION FROM
 w.. A. HENDERSON.
In Question Of Law He says He is Unwilling ts Express Opinion in

Some days ago William A. Hender- son. Chairman of the Montgomery County Amendment Committee, wrote Judge J. B. Gaston, of the Probate Court. requesting information regard ing polling lists. sss
 Judge Gaston replied Friday as foi- lows:
 "on receipt of yours of 2sd Inst. I immediately telephoned your ofiice ask ing for the names of the voters whose names do not appear on the poll list for 1908, but who hold receipts duly signed. My object in making this in- Quiry of you was to correct errors, if any exist, in the poll list of 1908 l am told by MT. vardaman that he com- municated my inquiry to you. but ] have received no reply. This in my opinion Is what should be done in the case mentioned by you. If error fs suspected In the poll list in regard to any voter 1t should be reported to the Judge of Probate so that he may dis cover whether such error does or does not exist, and correct the error if 1t ex- ists.
 q am required by la wto prepare the poll list furnished to the inspectors Of election from the alphabetical poll lists filed in. this office by the Tax Collector. It is possible l may have made some mistakes in doing this. and I will cor rect any of which you or any one else may advise me. Will you kindly fur nish me the names of the voters in whose interest you write.
 We are both interested in provid- ing. so far as in us lies, that no elector shall lose his vote: and 1t Is not too late to correct errors. If on investi- gatfon 1t should be found that there Is no disagreement between the poll list prepared in this office and the alpha betical poll list on file from which 1t has been prepared. then a question of law arises in regard to your case which I am not officially charged with solv- ing, and in regard to which deem 1t best. especially as am not lawyer, to express an opinion"

 TURF ELECTIONS.
Sentiment of Montwomery County Or ganisation is yoiced by Junius J. Pierce in Statement
 Made Fridny fl

That 1t Is the purpose of the amend CTS in Montgomery County to preserve their present organization and to op- pose all candidates who are now oppos- ing the amendment, was declared yes terday by. Junius J Pierce, one of the recognized leaders of the amendment forces in this county MT. Pierce made House Friday while he. with a number of others were looking on at the reg tstration of voters.
 The statement has an important bearing inasmuch as 1t is well known that an overwhelming per centage of the county and municipal officers in Montgomery are opposing the amend ment. The amenders have made an active campaign in Montgomery. Local politicians say that it Is a campaign that has called for the expenditure of considerable money in a Legitimate way. It would appear that the activity of the amendment committee Is to be carried over into next years primary and Into other elections in this county. It would also appear that warfare is to be made on most of those now fill- ing of1ce in the city and county.
 Mir. Pierce at the time he made the statement was talking to Temple Sei- bels, Justice M H. Screws and Berto H. Johnson. In discussing the local campaign he said:
 No matter what happens in the election. the amendment committee of County will preserve and keep up it's organization. We are ge- ing to keep alive the Active Eorganixa- tion and oppose every man who opposes the amendment It matters not what new issues may arise. the men who arc now opposing the amendment will be opposed by our organization when they offer for office at any. future time"

DECISION ON INSURANCE
POINT OF LAW SETTLED BY sU-
 PREME COURT.
Case Involves Policy to Secure Which It is Alleged Misrepre- sentations Were Made
 fo Company.

With the hearing of arguments in the Greater Birmingham case. in which the bill extending the city limits is at tackled. the Supreme Court of Alabama adjourned until December 1s.
 Before adjournment. one case involv- ing a nice point of law was decided. when an opinion by Justice Anderson reversed and remanded the cause of the Mutual Life Insurance Company against Mrs. Lula T. Allen. of Selma.
 The difference between warranties and fraudulent misrepresentations in insurance was drawn by the court.
 warranties. 1t is held. must be in the contract and on the face of the policy to be binding; Fraudulent mis- representations need not be thus set out to render a policy Invalid
 Mrs Allen sued for s2.50o on poll icy which had been issued to her hus- band. W. E. Allen. The insurance company resisted the claim. and charged that the policy had been se- cured by misrepresentation. that Allen had declared that he was perfectly we'll, when physician had informed him that he was suffering from heart trouble.
 the contract. but the Supreme Court held that misrepresentation to inval- idate policy, need not be set forth. Warranties should be set forth.
 The Dallas Circuit Court decided In favor of Mrs. Allen in the suit. but the Supreme Court reversed the finding.
