SCRAP OVER LIQUOR
LAW AT ANNISTON
Mallory Ordinance to Strengthen the
Anti-Liquc- Selling Laws Carried
Over to Next Council

Admission, June Especial .)--The An
niston city council held a stormy ses-
sion Thursday evening when Alderman
5. w. Mallory introduced measure to
strengthen the anti-iquor selling laws
In the city and prevent the reversal of
so many cases in the higher courts, the
ordinance in question providing that the
possession of liquor by any cne person in
quantities of more than one gallon should
be considered prima facia evidence of
guilt
The ordinance also seeks to prevent
the keeping of liquor at all in any place
not used exclusively as a dwelling pro-
vidng for the issuance of search war
rants by magistrates where there is rea :
son to believe the law is being violated.
The law provides minimum penalty of
S10o and maximum of $780, with a street
sentence of six months.
Councilman Burgess moved that the Or
dinance be tabled, but this motion was
lost by a five to four vote. 1t went to
the second meeting and was carried ove.-
to the next meeting.

DENIES SUCH A TH|NC'
AS LEASE SYSTEM.
EXISTS IN ALABAMA.
Greer Declares Convict De-
partment Brings Some
thing Like 100000 in
Net Profits to State

Admission, June 13.-- Special. DENY
ing that such thing as lease sys-
tenn exists in Alabama. l.. f. Greer, as
sociate state convict inspector, of this
city declares that if the present sys-
tenn of dealing with the convict prob
lem is changed and the convicts put
to work on the public roads, the state
will be confronted with the problem
of raising in additional revenue
from some other source.
Mr.. Greer says that inasmuch as he
will retire from office as soon as his
term expires he has no personal in
terest to be conserved. but that ne
speaks from standpoint of the well
fare of the state.
1.-The convict department is a revenue
raised for the state" said Mr.. Greer,
''bringing in more than s1,000,0O0 gross
every year of which something like
100000 is net profit. Suppose you take
the convicts out of the mines and put
them on the roads. the state loses ST.
100000 revenue. Convicts will cost at
least 100000 for maintenance which
makes $1.600,000. Prisons to hold the
convicts securely in the various coun-
ties will cost 100000 additional, which
makes the total cost to the people of
inc Stdte dt icdSt pE,UUU,uUU.so Vi course,
from this sum must be taken the worth
of the convicts work. but additional
revenue must be raised for the state"
Mr.. Greer denies that there has been
any cruelty to the state convicts and
continues: There is no such thing as
a lease system in Alabama. Every state
convict is under the direct control of
the state. We feed them, clothe them
appoint their tasks and inflict such
punishment as is deemed necessary
The men who guard them, the men who
oversee their work, are employees of
the state. some of them being from
the best families of Alabama We feed
every convict in the state with the ex-
ception of two small camps but even
here the state warden is in charge
and the treatment is regulated by the
convict department. Not single felon
Is leased to any contractor

fore the committee on janitors and
supplies to answer 10 a charge that
he had absented himself from his
school duties to work in the campaign

warning.
BY unanimous vote, the board reap
pointed Capt. A. r. Stewart super.
visor of the public schools for another
term OF two years with an increase Of

The resolution for the captains re-
appointment was moved by Inspector

the poor service being given by the
Michigan State Telephone Co.
But we can't get along without
telephone service" protested Inspec.
tor Mumford.

right now" shot back Inspector Nc
Michael.
After considerable discussion. IL

allegiance until the next board meet
ing, when representative OF the

appear and explain the reason for
the alleged bad service.
A request from the Mckinley
Memorial association for permission
TO ask the school children 10 con
tribute one cent each toward the pro.
posed birthplace memorial to the late

detention home, asked the board To
supply a teacher promptly at the

nection with the home. the appoint
ment having been delayed a year ago.
President Goldberg thought that
the county ought TO furnish the teach.
er, inasmuch as the home is a county
institution.
The matter was referred TO this
