Montgomery. Ala, June

In support of the contention Of the

property of the Mobile Gas company,
Harwell G. Davis, attorney general,
and associates today filed with S. H.
Dent, Jr, special master, brief
containing As typewriter pages. This
was the last word of til state in the
controversy which has continued for
many months and from which result
ed the order of the commission estab-
fishing a valuation $1,70O,000 after
ccanceling previous valuation of
$1,969, sos.
The brief was filed with the special
master by Hugh White. special as
sistant attorney general, apd F. j.
Yerger, city attorney of Mobile, who
appeared in all hearings as the repre-
sentatives Of the state.
Statement On Evidence.
In insisting that the commission
had the power and authority to es-
tablish the valuation and that the
valuation is a proper one, the attor-
neys went into a minute statement
regarding the evidence submitted
during the hearings before the spe-
cial master.
Mr.. Dent will consider the briefs
of the state and the company and
Will make report and recommends
ton to Judge Henry D. Clayton, who
will pass upon the application of
the Gas company for permanent in
junction preventing the commission
from enforcing it's valuation order.
The company contends that the origi-
nal value of s1,s69,565 became final

TO CHOOSE TYSON's SUCCESSOR
Voters of the Second congressional
district will select representative
as the successor of John r. Tyson,
deceased, in a special election Au-
gust IA. Announcement was made to-
day that Governor Brandon had is
sued proclamation calling the spe-
cial election.
Whether the democratic party will
hold special primary for the Sc
lection of democratic nominee will
be determined by the state demo-
cratic executive committee. Senator
X. B. Evins, chairman of the state
committee, indicated several weeks
ago that he would call the meeting
of the committee as soon as Governor
Brandon set a date for the special
election. In the past the democratic
committee has called a special pri-
mary for the filling of each vacancy
in Congress. The Second district
contains few republican voters and
the result of the special election
would be established by the demo-
cratic party even though no special
primary were held.

CASTE PREJUDICE IN INDIA
Not a Bar to Any Occupation, Though
the Observance 10 Most Rioldly
Enforced.

There are four main castes In India
the Brahmans, Kshatriyss, yaisyas
and Sudras. corresponding traditional
ly to the occupations of priest, warrior,
trader and artisan. But, though this
would suggest that caste was at one
time g class distinction. yet at the
present day a caste may include all
classes save that Of priest, which Is
reserved TO the Brahmans Caste Is
no bar to any occupation A rajah
may be a Sudra- His cook may be
Brahman. The rajah is of higher
class than his cook, though of a very
much lower caste. And though the
Brahman will cook the rajah's dinner.
he will not eat it with him, or permit
his daughter TO marry the rajah.
Though 1t is not looked upon with
approval. marriage is possible between
castles which are not widely separated.
In particular. legal marriage can take
place between two contiguous castles.
But in all such mixed marriages the
children belong entirely to the lower
caste
