bug#24292: # Local Variables: not working

[nullx002 <nullx002@gmail.com>]

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

My init.el file has following line:

(gobal-linum-mode t)

Now I want to disable linum-mode for few .org files so i used following:

# Local Variables:
# eval: (linum-mode 0)
# End:

in header above everything else.

but it is not working for me for org files, it works for other files
like .txt .md .js etc. but not for .org files

I tired with empty .org file and result is same.

C-h v linum-mode for .txt file gives:

Its value is nil
Local in buffer test.txt; global value is the same.

while,

C-h v linum-mode for .org file gives:

Its value is t
Local in buffer capture-tasks.org; global value is nil
