ALL EXCISE COMMISSIONERS
 TO MEET AT THE CAPITAL

ernor in calling this meeting is in keep ing with this intention.
 The local commissioners will attend the meeting in Montgomery October in a body.
 MT. Bilingsey is quoted as follows concerning the matter to come before the commissioners: 'tThere are many kinds of adulterated liquors which do not meet the requirements of the Smith bill It is necessary that the regulation of the sale of all liquors be made. One commission, save for the meeting to be held, might permit the sale of one brand, and another taboo the sale of the same br and. In case the dealer who cannot sell in Birmingham for instance, a cer- tain grade of liquor, realizing that such a brand is permitted in Mobile, would instantly take his case to the state.
 Tt is obvious therefore, the good which will be accomplished by the Montgomery meeting It will serve an excellent pur- pose and the people, the commissioners and the wholesale liquor dealers will be benefited"
