Cullman, October 27.-(Special.)- - Under restraining writ of injunction. Issued out of the chancery court of Cullman county at the instance of So- licitor D. c. Almon, 12 of the so-called soft drink stands have been temporar- fly closed In Cullman.
 It will be remembered that at the recent session of the grand jury or this county more than 200 indictments were found most of which were against the soft drink men of Cullman for all legged violations of the prohibition laws. The men were arrested and placed un- der bond in the sum of $500 each. The indictments found numbered from one to thirty against each man.
 They readily gave bond for appear ance at the adjourned term of the cir cult court which will be held in Gull man beginning the first Monday in De- cember, and then. in open defiance of the law, and in the face of the many indictments against them, opened their doors and proceeded with business in the same old way until the citizens of Cullman, backed by one or two of the county officials. appealed for relief from the situation to Solicitor All mon.

CAPITALS EXAMPLE SET BY BIRMINGHAM ts Police Commission Likes This

 Drink Stands
RAILROAD EXTESION

Montgomery, October 27.-(Special)- )-The city of Birmingham will be used as an example when the police commissioners of Montgomery meet in this city Monday in regular session. Alleged violation of the state prohibition laws will be the incentive which will drive the commits sioners to take the name of the Magic City in vain.
 In the recent report of the Montgomery county grand jury criticism against the police of the city was offered by the in- quistorial body when reference was made to lack of harmony between the police department of Montgomery and the sheriff's forces of the county In the enforcement of the prohibition laws. It seems from what can be gathered at this time that there will be halfway ad- mittance of this lack of harmony, and further investigation has led to the belief that the responsibility will be fixed by the commissioners not upon the policemen but upon the laws
 It Is contended that in Birmingham the voters of that city cried out for local option before the prohibltory laws of the state were passed, whereby sentiment of enforcement of the laws is said to have been shown As consequence, it is taken that the laws of the city of Bir- mingham are in conformity with the state laws bearing upon the relegation of whis- kies to the perpetual shades of oblivion
 On the other hand, it Is contended that Montgomery never. went dry" and that the sentiment in this city is such that it will never go dry" Alleged violation of the prohibition laws are consequently not rnisdemeanors in the eyes of the Mont gomery code. Therefore, it is argued by several in this city it is not up to the policemen to ferret out such alleged vio- ators who commit a state offense.
 The grand jury has at no time chided Sheriff Horace Hood of the county for any non-enforcement of the law. The sheriff has caused wholesale arrests to be made in Montgomery, while the pro portional number of arrests on the part of the police is insignificant in a com parison. It was taken by the grand jury in its criticism that the police, with a materially larger force, ought to be able to lend the heartiest cooperation
