 Pass this bill and we will see that you get just that form of Legislator through local bills which you desire. '
 Or perhaps companion bill dealing with the smaller counties will prove so satisfactory to the representatives Of those counties that they will favor the legislation dealing with the more popuious communities. Or perhaps, certain amend ments to the general local option bill will be attached which will relieve a sit uation which is becoming tense.
 While no definite informaton can be ob- taned in this regard it is reliably re- ported that certain men who have been connected with brewery interests in Ala bama are opposing the local option on account of it's drastic provisions.
 They are opposed to the giving of ex- else commissions such unlimited power. They are opposed to the pure food reg ulations, and especially to the provision which makes it necessary for the com missions to analyze chemically all liquors twice a year. And they are opposed, it is said, to the general retail license of $2400 per annum.
 In this regard, however, very little un- easness exists. From what can be gath cred the real strength of the bill is due to the fact that it requires that only good men shall operate saloons and that only good liquor may be sold. It is said that the bill on account of its drastic provisions has gained a certain favor with the prohibtionists. At any rate, 1t is gen. orally admitted that it's provisions are the most strenuous ever presented to a legislature of southern state.
 UItras Are Hopeful
 In the meantime, the ultra prohibition ists are hard at work in an effort to de- feat the bill. They held secret caucus immediately following the presentation of the bill in the lower house, after which it was announced that everything was propitious-from their standpoint. Repre- sentative Merritt the recognized floor leader of the utras, believes that the bill will be, defeated, but he does not claim to have 51 votes pledged against the bill as others of his fastion claim.
 The rules committee of the house, in- cidentally, this morning reported adverse ly the resolution introduced the other day providing for the publication Of all liquor bills local and general, which have been introduced. And no report was made oh the resolution of Representative Fuquay, providing for the impeachment of the sheriffs of all counties who do not im- medately put into actual effect the OK isting prohibition statutes It is under stood that the resolution died a-borning In a pigeon hole of the committees cham Der.

ADJUSTMENTS
"The Easiest Way"

 John Madison. Edwin H. Robins Willard Brockton. ........ J Joseph Kilgour Jim Weston. John P. Brawn Fife St. Clair. Louise Randolph
 The Easiest Way relates some chap ters in the life of weak woman. Laura Murdock, a chorus girl, has been leading a fast life under the tutelage of a wealthy broker. On trip to the west she falls in love with young newspa- per man. The love is mutual, and these two, inspired by dreams of happy fu- ture, decide to begin life over again. The young newspaper man will try for wealth and the girl will go back to New York and look for work on the stage. The broker cynically agrees to remain neu- tral and let these two try to work out their salvation.
 It is a bitter struggle for the girl, made moral stamina. She Is what our English friends call a ''rotter." She can't even tell the truth and after struggling along for while she drifts back to the broker end luxury, for that was the easiest way.
 In the meantime the young newspaper man has struck it rich" in Nevada and comes east to claim Laura as his bride. She has kept him in ignorance of her true relations with the broker, William Brockton. She breaks off with Brockton. hut Madison, her lover, learns that she has been Brockton's mistress. Even then

Bessemer, January 25.-(Special)-T Bill introduced yesterday by Representa- tive Percy which seeks to prohibit the garnshment or attachment of wages or personal property through justices courts is regarded with little favor by many of the business men of Bessemer and a movement has been started to oppose the measure.

Virginia Harmed

No English-speaking actress of today compares with Virginia Harmed as an emotional actress, according to the opin- ion of the New York critics, and in The Woman He Married which Miss Harmed will offer here at the Shubert theatre next Wednesday matinee and night, she has splendid opportunities to demonstrate her true worth. '"The Woman He Mar ried' is by Herbert Bashf0rd and de- scribes phase of New York life new to the dramatic stage.

Pettus County

The bill of Representative Eastis pro- posing to establish a new county was the subject of much comment in Bessemer. While many citizens knew that such bill had been prepared there were oth- CTS whom the announcement took by sur prise. There seems to be a decided senti- ment in favor of the measure, yet in view of the vigorous effort made four years ago which ended in defeat, the outsome of the present bill is regarded with doubt. It is understood a mass meeing will be held in the near future. to take up the proposition.
