strictly in his charge to the grand ju~ ries, when organized. the provisions of the game and fish laws, and to urge diligent inquiry into infractions there of. The provision of the iawsrequiring this to be done has served the excel- lent purpose of informing the people of the provisions of these statutes and of educating them to an appreciation of their benefits. and of inducing tho grand juries to be on the alert to in- dict those who commit offensss there under.
 Aside from the splendid effects of the game laws of this State have wielded for the protection of the wild life within our borders. the incidental benefits arising under these statutes have been Of incalculable good to the people. Farmers are now enabled to control labor. for formerly farm hands persisted in hunting at all seasons or the year when their services were im- peratively demanded in cultivating the crops Under the guise of hunting. many petty, offenses were committed under former conditions py the shift less and rowing classes which frequent ly purloined small stock on the farms.
 "It is most gratifying to the Comms- sioner of the Department of Game and Fish to realize that there Is strong public sentiment in Alabama, favorable to the enforcement of the statutes for the preservation and protection of our natural resources. A statute that is not enforced has no place on oar law books and should be repealed. The disregard for one law brings all into disreputc, and a condition of lawlessness prevails which is distasteful to every patriot fc citizen. therefore 1t is my sworn ob- ligation, as well as your plain duty, to go to the utmost extremity in compel ling obedience to the statutes commit ted to the officers of the Department of Game and Fish for enforcement. No of- ficer of the law can hope 10 enjoy the respect and esteem of the people whom he serves, pnless he is ever on the alert to discharge every single duty reposed in him by law"

conception They had crucified Christ for teacbiDg an extra-Judean gcepe1 and now they would make away with his disciple for the same reason. What a commentary upon the scene The cep- turies have afforded. Paurs outreach- ing gospel Is marching In triumph to the ends of the earth: while the Jews themselves no longer possess their own city. The mob cry has been stiIled. But throughout all the earth there arise daily songs of adoration to the name of Him who came to save Gentila as well as Jew.

An Able ReDieU Of The Amendment Question

It appears this section fully illustrates or doing things by stealth and cum ning, what some of the amendment advocates claim the Legislature would do. lt proposes to cut out and with. draw the protection heretofore reserv- ed in the bill of rights of our present Consultation. at the same time denying enio,S enao suGn non VIII ne the re results would the Apostle, Walk worthy of your vo- cation" Do not claim to be one thing before the world, then Secretly, beneath what your vocation stands. Az an ever reminder of such fairness we should keep our Constitution free from the ambiguities in which 1t would be prove a source of great trouble.
 would like to call to your atten- tfon a section of the Ohio Constitution beAring upon this question as follows: "No license to traffic in intoxicating liquors shall hereafter be granted In this State, but the General Assembly may by laws provide against evils re- sulting therefrom;" Saloons are not numerously than almost any other State.
 That section of the Ohio Constitution Is & freud. They would make you be- iieve they have prohibition, when m reality 1t Is whited sepulchre. It is possible this man from Ohio has been imported to teach us in ways that are cunning and tricks that are vain.
 It has been stated that If the Leg islature should repeal the prohibition statutes that the cities and towns through their council could by ordi- nances impose such penalties as to whiskey uaf1c. That seems to be one of the great troubles with the human race. Not proper consideration of our neighbor. Just so we rid our own door of the evils and the vexations of life, we are willing that others should bear them with increasing fold.
 Such condition as above mentioned would place the whiskey traffic throughout the rural districts without police jurisdiction to be controlled only by, writ of injunction through the Chancery Court. Think of officers chasing boot leggers to serve them with writs of injunction to restrain them in this nefarious business. I am surprised that any sensible man should say he had rather risk retrograding to such conditions than to permit them to continue as they are.
 The assertion is freely made on the streets that all those who oppose the ly belong to the whiskey side. Iwould like to know what constitutes a whis. key man? How many men in Pike County in the past ten years have been interested in the wfiskey traff1c in any form. To all who apply such assertions as above mentioned or state that those who oppose the amen dment are traitors. I would respectfully com. mend to them reading the application | of St. Luke. 18th chapter, 10th to I4th |

 The question has been raised would any future Legislature in the face ef tne adoption of the proposed amend ment repeal or change the present pro- ntbitfon etatutes. I do not suppose anyone would question their authority Sor 70 ao so If they have sumciens nun, Ders. In answer to that question l Will summit parallel case by referring you 70 Section 2S. of Article IA of the Ala oama Constitution of 1875. which reads tr. aollows; NO railroad. or other Tree passes, or sell tickets. or passes at discount, or other than is sold to the public generally. to any member or the General Assembly, or to any or United States" This section was in your Constitution for twenty years, and the members of the General As- sembly during this time was composed chants and in fact men from every call- Ing and occupation. No statute was ever enacted whereby this section of the Consultation was made effective.
 From the members of the Legislature during this period we have selected Governors, U. s. Senators, Congress- men and State and County officers and many of them are today living in our midst without a blot upon their names. would 1t be a greater crime against the Constitution to repeal or change the present statutory laws on prohibi- ton than 1t was to fall to enact stat utory laws to enforce the article of the Constitution above referred 10. Would anyone be bold enough to say our law makers, or administration, were per- Jurers. Is 1t not sufficient to adopt the answer of Mir. Brooks Lawrence and explain 1t by saying they were elected by the whiskey crowd.
 For the purpose of comparing the force of Section 23 of Article 14 of the old Constitution just referred to with the proposed amendment I will quote Section l.: "The manufacture, sale and keeping for sale of alcoholic and malt liquors. and other intoxicating bever- ages shall be forever prohibited in this State. but alcohol may be sold for medical, scientific and mechanical puf. poses, and wine for sacramental pur- poses. under such regulations as the Legislature may have prescribed or may hereafter prescribe"
 You VIII observe the proposed amend ment Is no stronger than the section of the Constitution of 1875. Did not that section of the Constitution prove as empty as. last years birds nest? the proposed amendment if adopted be treated in the same way? But may be they rely on the second section of the proposed amendment. Let us see how 1t reads. Here it Is: Nothing in the Constitution of Alabama shall be construed to prevent the Legislature from designating @ place where such liquors may not be stored or kept"
 VIII some one of the amendment ad- vocates tell us what this section means, or covers or what is intended by 1t.

CITY HAS POWER TO
TRADE ITS PROPERTY
So Holds Supreme Court in
East Chicago Park
Case.
JUDGEMENT IS REVERSED
Calls Attention to Statutes Which
Gives Cities Power to Sell Parks
and Public Squares.
Especial to THE TIMES

East Chicago, Ind, Feb. 5.-The pow
er of the city of East Chicago. on pc
tition of a majority of the legal voters.
to exchange a fve-acre park in the
business part of town for twenty-five
acres at another location deemed bet
ter suited for park purposes, was de-
clared by supreme court yesterday in
reversing a judgment refusing to quiet
the title of the East Chicago
to the old park.
The East Chicago company is a sue
cessor to the Standard Steel and Iron
company. which gave the fve-acre park
to the city. The new then
traded a larger park for the first one
and laid it out in building lots as an
addition to the city. Persons living in
the neighborhood objected, insisting
that the ground could not be subdi-
vided. and the compan found itself
unable to sell the lots.
After calling attention to the statutes
which give a city power to sell parks
and public squares and r~einvest the
money in other parks, Judge Montgom-
cry said:
1T is inevitable that a tract OF
ground once intended for and devoted
to particular public use may from the
growth of the city and changing OF
conditions become i'll to such use
Public convenience. interests and me-
cessities may make a change of site
imperative, and the people concerned
may be practically unanimous in de-
handing it, and to hold that the legis-
lature may not validity authorize ar
abandonment or sale of public grounds
In any case. would be to strip the state
of one of the inherent and essentla.
attributes of sovereignty.
The owner of private property il
the vicinity of such public square
whose mean of ingress egress is not
destroyed or affected, has no vested
right in the continued use of sucf
property for public purposes"

Bring Trouble in East
Chicago to Settlement.
Especial to THE T1MEs.l


East Chicago, Ind, Feb. 5.-The visit
and C. s. Rathbone to East Chicago
on Wednesday afternoon was of partic-
ular significance as it resulted in the
placing of East Chicago's two delivery
clerks, the Misses Cora Chapman and
Hattie Zachariasz. on the government
pay roll. Their salaries will be sixty
dollars per month and win be paid
directly from the postal department,
instead Of through an appropriation.
as was the case durin gthe regime of
Mrs. Mary A Ross.
Under the appropriation rule the
girls claimed that they were not get
ting proper treatment as far as their
salaries were concerned and on Tues
day night of last week Miss Chapman
walked out Of the office and refused
to return to work until the matter was
adjusted. Miss Chapman is probably
the best versed postal employees in this
region and her absence from the local
Office nearly tied up the department,
The Appearance of the inspectors soon
brought Miss Chapman to her former
post and after a brief examination OF
her charges declared hat she was en-
titled to additional remuneration. as
was also Miss ~Zachariasz. Mrs. Ross
cussion Of Miss Chapman's claims, de-
cided to reimburse the girls from hel
own purse. The former post-mistress
paid over $506.06 and the amount was
equally divided between the two clerks
