Requisite Number of Names Already Secured To Call
 Local Option Contest

Montgomery, April -(Special.)-Mont- gomery county will probably have the first local option election in the state under the provisions of the Parks Dill Within the next day or two a petition signed by S2o0 qualified voters of the county will be presented to Judge J. B. Gaston of the probate court asking for an election.
 Under the Parks bill an election can be ordered only on the petition of 4o per cent of the voters of any county, the last general election being taken as the basis of calculation. The petition which has been gotten up for presentation to the probate judge Is signed by more than the required number of voters, and if is believed that the election will be held early in May.
 Little apprehension is felt in regard to the result of the election. Local option ists are confident of polling handsome vote, though there has been some talk to the effect that the blind tigers" are satisfied with the present conditions. and will vote with the prohiDitionists. While this may be done by few of the blind tiger dealers, who claim that it will be easier to violate the law under the oper- ation of prohibition than under a licensed system it is not believed that this vote will be sufficient to effect the election to any material extent.

 Days

Montgomery, April lSpecial)-The Alabama railroad commission has issued instructions to the Western of Alabama road to begin within 30 days the improve nent of the. depot at Opelika The plans submitted to the railroad commission for the improvements to be made on the Opelika depot have been approved, and 1t is expected that the railroads will begin the work within the next few days
 The petition for added depot facilities at Opelika has been before the railroad commission for some months, and 1t was passed upon by that body several weeks ago. There was some misunderstanding in regard to the plans, however, and the matter was delayed.
 In addition to issuing instructions re- garding the Opelika depot the railroad commission is sending out to the various railroad companies operating in the state circular letters calling the attention of the roads to their failure to post trains, 2 of the railroad commission, and to their failure to keep open their depots one hour before train time. which is in viola ton of general order No. 8.
 It Is understood that there has been much complaint from various sections of the state in regard to the failure of roads to comply with these two orders, and the letters which the commission is sending to the railroad companies are urgent in- structions to comply with the law in re- spect to the posting of trains and to open depots.

LOCAL OPTION |S NOW LAW OF STATE Saloons Possible By the End
 of May BILL NOT PERFECT Governor, However, Would Not Send It Back Because of Insufficient
 Time To Make Amend
BILL NOT PERFECT
By BERRYMAN G. BETTY

Montgomery, April Especially Local option is now established in Ala bama. It was entered on the statutes of the state early this afternoon when Governor Emmet ONeal attached to the Smith regulation bill the signature which made it law, and which wiped from the statutes the state wide pro- hibition laws which now obtain. By tomorrow petitions can be entered with probate judges for an election to deter mine the will of the people, and by the last of May saloons can be legalized in the state.
 The governor also signed today the Montgomery commission government bill and formally appointed as commis sioners of the city to take office April 10, E. B. Joseph. Frank Stollenwerk, Sr., Pat Mcintyre and Walter R. Bras sell The chief executives signature to this measure, and to the regulation bill, was the feature of the day at the capitol.
 According to the Smith measure, one saloon can be established for every 1000 population in the counties which vote for the abolition of prohibition and for the return of the barroom. Such sa- looms cannot open before o'clock in the morning and must close by Il o'clock at night
 Before a county can vote on the local option basis a petition requesting such an election must be signed by 40 per cent of the voters who cast votes in the previous gubernatorial election. Election can then be held within 30 days after the petition has been filed, and the saloons will be allowed to op- crate should election favor them as soon thereafter an excise commits sion can be appointed by the governor and authorized to act
 In allowing saloons on the basis or 1000 people the commission is empoW- cred to except hotels which have more than 30 rooms. Thus. the larger hotels can dispense liquors even If the au- thoriZed number of saloons are in op- eration.
 Pressure was brought to bear upon the governor late this afternoon to have him veto the bill or return 1t to the legislature, because of the pro- vision which authorizes the operation of distilleries in the state. He re- fused the request on the ground that no distilleries heretofore have been oper- ated in Alabama save in the larger cities and on the further ground of the legislature not having sufficient time to make other amendments.
 Local option was my platform, the governor said tonight and as such I thought It best to make sure of the bill before me. Of course, no bill is perfect, but in my opinion the Smith measure is entirely adequate.
