utes. He said affairs were getting In shape before the legislature.
 Hervey w. Laird, a well-known former
 newspaper man, who was recently ap-
 pointed deputy insurance commissioner for Alabama, came to the city last night.
 He has several insurance matters to look into this morning and will leave tonight at S25 o'clock for Louisville, where he will
 look into the affairs of the Citizens Life
 Insurance company, whose troubles or recent date have been widely discussed.
 "The affairs of the Citizens Life are in good shape now" said MT. Laird, and my trip to Louisville is simply for the purpose of getting some details of that controversy strengthened out That af- fair was arranged within a comparatively
 short time by the insurance commits soners of the various states, who met and held conference. I am very much
 pleased with the insurance business of Alabama. Our companies are officered by
 good strong men and managed ably" w. J. Buck Oliver of Tuscaloosa,
 one of the best known men in that section of the state, returned from Montgom-
 cry last night en route to his home. He
 has been in Montgomery several days looking after a few matters of interest to Tuscaloosa.
 q am always glad to be in Birming- ham," said MT. Oliver Being so near home I make frequent trips up here. We are very much interested in the gas and oil prospects in Tuscaloosa and believe 1t will do a world of good for this state if found in paying quality and quantity. Montgomery is running along in the
 same old way. One may find the same crowd of prominent men, who are always
 mingling with the solons at the capital On the afternoon train yesterday was a delegation of Bessemer citizens en route to Montgomery to protest against the enactment of the garnishment meas ure introduced by Walker Percy of Jef- ferson. They were very much aroused
 over the proposed repeal and said it would do great harm if permitted. The delegation was composed of a commit tee appointed at a hastily called meet ing of prominent merchants in Besse-
 mer.

HOOD ANNOUNCES HE

And Montgomery Sends Up
 One Mighty Howl
D1sLIKEs SMITH BILL
Alabama Poultry Show at Montgomery Is Excellent Affair-RaiIroad Rate Hearing Resumed-Supreme
 Court to Resume

Montgomery, January 26-(Special )-An- nouncement of Sheriff Horace Hood of Montgomery that he is going to enforce the statewide laws now on the statutes until they Are repealed, or until they give by the present legislature, has caused a howl in this town that Is being heard in all parts of the city. The sheriff's state ment, following upon a conference held in the office of Gov Emmet ONeal, at which 1t was determined, it is said, that the laws should be respected.
 Inasmuch as the sheriff's renewed activ- ity against the saloons comes in the midst of the discussion of the admnis- tration local option measure. which has been introduced in the house of repre- sentatives, and at time when the mem- bers of both houses are shaken with doubt as to whether or not the measure should pass in its present status, more than ordinary significance is attached to the renewed campaign. At the same time the renewed campaign has served the pur- pose of putting the legitimate saloonists to reflections. They are alleging that the wholesale violation or the prohlpllioi Ia :" since Governor Conner retired from office has greatly tended to cause the drafting of the stringent local option measure which is now before the house. They be- lieve that if the city had remained as dry as 1t was prior to the incoming o1 the new administration the result would have been more lenient measures.
 Undoubtedly the liquor men are dissat- isfied with the Smith measure now before the legislature, the dissatisfaction being due to the high license exacted, and te the number of saloons which are legal ized. The smaller fry" 1t is alleged, are objecting to the measure on the grouno that 1t discriminates against them IT favor of the big hotels and the wealthy saloon keepers. They think that they could carry this objection to the United States supreme court and have the pil killed, should it be passed, on the ground of restraint of trade within community
 Sheriff Hoods attitude in renewing his campaign is taken as sharp reproof te the saloonists, and may have the ten dency of directing such attention to tht condition as will make the legislature sharpen their already sharp pencils 1T pr oposing amendments.
