DECLARES ONE DECISION
 OF SUPREME COURT ENOUGH

 Ameadea on gournai--szsy
 Met Appeal the Case.

Declaring that the suit for a man. damus against Judge Gaston, to com pei the Issuance Of a liquor license. had been foresta1led by the former decision of the Supreme Court of Ala bama, upholding the prohibition law, Judge sayre on Tuesday denied the mandamus.
 The bill of complaint, in the suit be- Fore Judge Sayre, Instituted an attack upon the constitutionality of the pro- hibition law of Alabama. on several counts. Judge Sayre, however. held that the decision of the Supreme Court of Alabama, in the case of the State vs. Skeggs. the Cullman County case of April, 1908. is conclusive On the question of the constitutionality of the prohibition law. no matter what the course Of the attack .zss .sls sas.ss x 4
 The gist of his opinion was that it is not to, be supposed that because the cover every possible point of law, 1t did not cover the ease fuIly; but that every point was weighed by the high est State tribunal, and that in their decision full study of the case was made. I A@
 So think" he says, "the decision in State. vs.e Skeggs conclusive on this constitutionality of the Statewide pro- hibition law
 In regard to the contention of the assailants of the bill, that the Consti- tuition was violated when the amend ment and the part amended was not set "at length" Judge Sayre placed a construction on the constitutional re- quirement. He says: When the nak- CTS of the Constitution said amend nlent,' they did not intend the thing amended but amendment onlys"
 Touching the contention that the conflict of the Statewide prohibition law and the local laws rendered in- valid the former, Judge Sayre show. ed that this instance had been covered by implication in the Supreme Court decision.
 No Appeal Maybe.
 The attorneys for the "antis" will probably not appeal from the decision of Judge Sayre, as an appeal from a similar refusal of mandamus goes to the Supreme Court from Selma. before the Montgomery -cases will be heard. The two cases being identical. the at torneys who are testing the law will rest their case on the appeal from the Selma court.
 It is expected that there will be It, tie or no developments in the prohibit tion fight for a month or more, when the case from Selma will be taken up in the Supreme Court. Until that time matters will rest. as all resorts to Ie- gal aid through the lower courts have been exhausted by the lawyers. 5ef
 Judge Sayre's decision in full is as follows:.
 T think some perfectly legitimate reasons may be stated why mandamus should not issue. &

was intended to serve It Is certain that the entry of neither the bare amendment. nor the entire section as amended. nor the entire act as amend ed. can afford any Information as to the change proposed by the amendment. unless eomparison could be had with the original draft of the bill. But courts cannot look to the original drafts of bills. AA
 Petitioner argues that the, constitu. tional provision requires the section as amended to be entered up at length. That would not amend the situation, but would lead to this result TheSrea- sonfng which would require the sec ton as amended to be entered at length. would require. as weils the en- tire bill as amended. to be set forth encumbering the jourpai with thous- ands of pages of perfectly useless mat ter. So when I conclude that when the makers of the constitution said "amendment." they did not intend the "tthing amended" but "amendmeht' only.
 As to Lse.i Act.
 f2) Section II of the act in question Is as follows: '.rhat all laws and parts os laws in confiict with this act be and the sarno are hereby repealed; provided. however. that nothing in this act shall operate to repeal onw of the local or special acts of the General As- sembly or Legislature of Alabama pro- hibiting the sale or other disposition of the liquors mentioned in. the first sec ton of this act, but all such acts shall continue in force and ekect and con- currence herewith, and indictments or prosecutions may, be had either under this act or any special or local act relating to the same subjects, but no one shall be prosecuted more than once or the same offense.",
 The argument that in those localities where local prohibition laws existed with penalties announced against the disposition of liquors are so in vari- ance, incongruous and conflicting that 1t will Ibe impossible for the court to know which are in force. that in those localities there will be no penalty, and hence the act Is local to those localities where no such complications exist and is void because no list of 1t was not given as required by Section 1os of the constitution.
 In State vs. skeggs the argument was pressed that the act was local. The Supreme Court did not respond to the exact argument now made. but 1t did deny the act to be local; H said: 'Tt is perfectly apparent from the whole act that the Legislature in good faith wrote to 6 Statewide prohibition Of certain dealings In tntoxtcants.' IT must have had in mind the suggested trouble with Section Il when it said: "The other questions argued by coun- sel pertain to the administrative fea- lures of the prohibition law. not lead.

RELATION OF BODY AND MINT
Assertion Made That No Healthy PeI
 son Is Wholly Bad.

The close relation of body and mind fn the matter of physical health, of which so much is said by various re ligfous and semi-religious organiza. tions and by a class of professional ''healers.D Is considered from 8 fresh point of view by an English clergy, man. His argument is that no per son who is healthy can be wholly bad. The clergyman further expressed the conviction that there Is a close con
 nection between health and morals, and that the man who has reached middle age in a sound bodily condition thereby proves that he has led de cent life. In support of his position he advanced the assertion that a large proportion of the convicts in English prison are physical degener. ates. From this 1t would seem that he does not confine his designation of badness" to the vices involved in in
 temperance and other forms of sensual dissipation, but, since convicts are guilty of many things apart from these, as theft, burglary, forgery and the like, holds that they are led to the perpetration of even this class oi crimes by defective bodily state.

Is STORY
 OF iCONSUMPTVE

DOUGLAS, Oct 4.- Especially
 A pathetic letter was received by Chief Lilies this morning from a man who was in Douglas for short time. It was written from New Mexico by T. E. Druett who was in this city at one time making photographic post cards.
 When Druett came to Douglas he found he had to have license and not having the cash deposited with the city marshal his dress suit case and contents. Then he proceeded to try to ply his business but he met with meager success. Seeing only failure Druett pawned his overcoat with Uncle Jim for dollar to get sufficient funds to leave town. Later he had the grip and this developed into consumption. He managed to raise g and sent it to the city ofic- ials with the request that they get him his coat of which he was in great need.
 A call was made upon Uncle Jim and the letter written was shown him. He promptly remitted interest which left a dollar to pay the expressage. It is now planned to raise the money to pay the license fee to the city and to send him his dress suit case and contents
