of appeals and the federal supreme court are obsolete. I can conceive Of nothing more dangerous to people than jur- isdiction out of sympathy with the peo- pie and practically beyond the power of recall. I call attention to Judge P"st0"d and Judge Swain. If we had from ons to eight-year terms of our federal district judges there would doubtless be less peonage and fewer injunctions. I believe In the primary system; in the rule of election by the people. Nothing can be more dangerous to our state than re- turn to the caucus or convention method of nominating state officers. even su- preme court judges.

attorney general; Harry c. Gunnels, as superintendent of education; Judge A. A. Evans, as a member of the supreme court; J. A. Wilkinson, as commissioner of agriculture: W. D. Nesbitt and J. A. Lusk. as associate railroad commissions CTS.
 Expired Appointments Appointees of Governor Conner whose term of office would commonly expire to- day. but who hold on under the law, un- til their successors are appointed, are. Judge J. J. Mitchell, chairman of the state tax commission. and Tax Comms- sioners J. B. Powell and Harvey E Jones, c. Craig Smith, president of the convict board. and the members thereof; Judge John Purifoy, examiner of public accounts; T. J. Rutledge. state bank ex- amner. The office of adjutant general formerly occupied by Bibb Graves. now brigadier general, has already been va- cated.
 What They Will Do
 What the retiring officials will do has not been fully decided by all of them, though several of the ex-officials have al- ready settled theiHfplans for the future General BrandoH has already gone to Tuscaloosa, of which county he Is now the probate judge, having been sworn into office today. He took with him E. W. Hapsman. who was warrant clerk at ths auditors office during the past four years. Ex-Treasurer Walter D. Seed today be- came lieutenant- governor of Alabama. succeeding Henry B. Gray, whose term of office expired at the same time as did Governor Corners. MT. Seed will proba- bly, return to Tuscaloosa to make his res- idence. though he has not yet announced his intentions.
 Col. A. M. Garber. who today retired as attorney general of the state, has already taken up his residence in Birmingham. where he will practice law His assist ant, Thomas w. Martin, went out of of- ice with him.. giving way for his brother, William Logan Martin.
 MT. Gunnels, retired as superintendent of education, has not announced his plans for the future, though 1t Is not improba- ble that he will resume the practice of law.
 Ex-Supreme Court Justice A. A. Evans will return. in all probability to his homo in Clayton, where he will again practice law.
 J. A. Wilkinson will retire to his farm at Autaugaville, where he will devote his time to the rotation of crops. Messrs Nesbitt and Lusk will remain at the former tasks, occupancy of that state of flee not requiring residence in Montgon- cry.
 Inasmuch as none of Governor O'Neai's appointments has been announced, spec ulation as to the appointments which he will make is futile. In the opinion of many, several of Governor Comer's a9. pointees will bs retained.
 Only one of Governor Comers ap- pointees was elected to office during the spring primary of 1910. Judge John Pu- rifoy who was examiner of public ac- counts. today became treasurer of the state. Several assistant examiners of public accounts are to be named by Gov ernor O'Neal For the head office of the bunch, however, the most likely candi- date.s in the opinion of many. is Judge W. F. wilkinson who left office today as chief clerk in the department of agri- culture. At

 tama's retiring governor. Citizen Conner. It abounded in optimism and as such was cheered to the echo.
 General Change
 With the changing of the administra- ton, number of offices at the capitol came under the control of new heads, all Of whom are democrats. and all of whom were elected to the position which they now occupy by overwhelming odds in the election of November 8. These changes embrace shifts In the offices of auditor, attorney general, department of agricul- ture, railroad commission and supreme court.
 Each of the new officials today took up his duties for a space of four years, dur ing which time the state will endeavor to adjust itself to peace after an admnis- tration which Is generally characterized as one of aggressiveness, and often re- ferred to as a radical one. This charge has been preferred owing to the activity of ex-Governor Conner in securing the passage of railroad laws and in thrusting RiO'fiOitioii hpoii tiie CoiuDlOlWcditl.
 Future Policy
 Future policy of the state, and the one under which Governor ONeal was elect cd to office, calls for Simon pure local op- tion. to achieve which an attempt will be made at the present session of the legislature, which was called to order last Tuesday.
 The question is an important one, how ever. in view of the fact that about s5 Aor of he oP had voted dry prior to the statewide laws which sealed the whisky traffic in this state. Tn all probability. not more than a half dozen of the 67 counties desire . return to the open saloon. Dispensaries will be established in many of the pre- cincts. while in many of the counties there will be no change, save such as should be brought about by vote of the various units.
 Railroad laws are not expected to be materially tempered with during the O'Neal administration.
 2 Brilliant Celebration
 The celebration of today which issued fin the accession of Governor O'Neal ia the highest office in the state was one of the most brilliant events of it's kind ever held in the annals of Alabama From the time of the inauguration to midnight the city was at whirl of excitement as result of the old giving to the new The order of exercises embraced In auguration at F o'clock, inaugural ad dresses at o'clock, review of troops al o'clock, governors reception at g o'clock and inaugural ball at 10 o'clock
 It is estimated that more than 10OOt people were gathered around the opeu air starld- at the capitol to hear the ip- augural addresses, and to participate ir the giant parade which was fully two miles In length
 s, Tonight society took hold of the city and made of the reception one of the most brilliant events of it's kind ever held In the state
 At all of these functions Walter D Seed, former state treasurer, stood side by side with Governor ONeal. Today the ex-treasurer was elevated to the office of lieutenant governor of Alabama. the state being in the queer position of hay ing local option chief executive and one

ALABAMA CASE
 IS AFFIRMED

Washington, January 16.-lSpecial. )-The l United States supreme court today af- | frmed the circuit court of the United States for the Southern district of Ala bama in the case of the German Alliance Insurance company vs. Foster Hale. The action was brought by Hale on a policy of fire insurance issued by the New York corporation. The policy cov- cred about 300,000 feet of lumber stacked near Bay Minette, Baldwin county Ala bama. The case comes to the supreme court on the question of the constitution ality of the provisions of the Alabama statutes, sections 2619 and 2620 relative to insurance.
 The supreme court holds the section not liable to objection on constitutional grounds. In rendering the opinion Jus tice Harlan says:
 "The state regarded the fixing of in- surance rates by self-constituted tariff associations or combinations as an evil against which the public should be guarded by such legislation as the state was competent to enact. The lower court held that the object of the legislature of Alabama was to prevent monopoly and encourage competition and that the statute was a legitimate exercise to that end.
 We concur entirely in the opinion. We can well understand that fire insurance companies, acting together, may have owners of property practically at their mercy in the matter of rates and may have 1t in their power to deprive the public generally of the advantages flow ing from competition between rival or ganizations.
 ITO meet the evils of such combinations the state is competent to adopt appro- prate regulations that will tend to sub stitute competition in the place of com bination or monopoly"

 New Officials | c. Brooks Smith, for a number of years enc of the attaches in the office of the state auditor, today entered his old and | as auditor. thus taking up duties with which he is as familiar as he is with | the sunlight. | Cyrus B.

 Judge Ormund Somervile, an ex-peda- gogue-legal-at the same time entered the chamber of the Alabama supreme court aG one of its associate justices. Each of these officials is well known In Alabama and each is well familiar with the tasks before him. Nearly all of them have announced their clerical assistance, tie result being that among the clerks as well as the officials there was a shift Of faces.

LODGE NOMINATED
 BY THE CAUCUS

Boston. January 16.-United States Senator Henry Cabot Lodge was nomi- mated at the republican caucus today for a fourth term by 126 out of 1bs republic an members of the legislature or%16 less than majority of the house and senate on joint ballot. AS the absentees were nearly all from the house.. 1t is antici- pated that the majority of the senate votes will be cast for MT. Lodge tomor- row, but that the house will be dead locked. whether this deadlock will con- tinue to the joint convention Wednes- day noon was a matter of interesting conjecture tonight. It was asserted In some quarters that if MT. Lodge be re- turned he would have to seek some dem- ocratic support.
 Chairman Whipple of Brookline. mem- Der of the Suffolk bar. who has never held office, but has appeared frequently on the democratic stump, was selected by the den4ocrats at their caucus as MT. Lodge 8 opponent
 The two caucuses were held simultane- ously and while the republicans quickly nominated MT. Lodge by exclamation, the democrats took five ballots before finally deciding on MT. Whipple. The lat ter's nomination was subsequently, made unanimous.
 sheehan Chosen By Caucus
 Albany, N Y. January 16-William F. Sheehan was nominated as the demo- cratic candidate for United States sen ator tonight at the joint caucus of dem ocratic legislators, receiving 62 votes, four more than majority of all the democratic members of both houses. The fact, however, that 25 members refused to attend the caucus leaves a strong possl- bility that tomorrow, when the legisla- ture votes in regular session, he may fail to receive the number of votes neces- sary for election. x

Montgomery, January 16.-(Special.)- When Gen. Robert F. Ligon. clerk of the supreme court of Alabama, delivered the oath of office today to Col Emmet O'Neal as governor of Alabama, important changes took place at the capitol. New men went to their places on the ship | of state and pledged themselves to aid 1 Pilot ONeal through an executive ad | ninistration of four years. Many of the old hands were retained to lend their guidance to the vessel. but In such in | stances those retained occupy offices which are removed from the sphere of politics, and which go on and on, like Tennysons brook.
 Among those who went into office were men who years ago-almost when they were in pinafores-had ambition to pre- side over one of the departments of state government, and who climbed into their executive chairs today with zeal and alacrity, at once getting to work to grease the machinery for another four years grind. Some of the new officials are men who time and time again have been elevated by their fellow men to posi- tions of prominence both in county and state government. But even when they went to their offices they did not lag in their steps. They have played the game through time and time again, but they find it interesting. and prefer the chance.
 Of course, there was no unseemly re- joicing. Politics is always a 'touchy'' point, and whenever it brings rejoicing into the camp of the one it sends sorrow into the camp of another
 The First Citizen
 Col. Emmet O'Neal the first citizen of Alabama, entere the gubernatorial office with an advantage rarely accorded to governors of a state, inasmuch as he took up, his duties familiar with every one of them. The son of a governor of Alabama, as boy he used to romp around the capitol grounds, and thus he got into close touch with the affairs of state.
 During his residence of more than week in Montgomery, he has had time to familiarize himself with many of the finer points of government which are handed down. This afternoon he officially took up his duties, and from now on his touch will be the one which will guide the state in the paths destined for it.
 Other Changes
 lieutenant Governor Walter D.. Seed was sworn in as the next highest officer of Alabama, simultaneously with the accession to office of Governor O'Neal, the two representing a notable antithesis in so far as are concerned their views on the states most important question, that of liquor legislation.
 Governor Seed came to office from serv- ice with the state it's treasurer during the past four years.
 In addition to these two changes there
