THE RAILROAD CONFERENCE.

Tomorrow afternoon at 8 o'clock the conference between the railroad officials and the committee of the Con msrcial club will take place at the club rooms. It is not yet definitely known how many will be present, hut the conference will be held and the initial step taken that is to bring Birmingham ultimately to her proper po- sition in the commercial world. This movement is one that may and doubtless will require some time 10 get fully devel- oped, but those who have gwen it the most careful study believe ihst what will be asked will prove as profitable to the ratl- roads If granted as i is really vital to Bir- mingham's development. So don't let our own people imagine this is only a spas nlodic effort for our city, for it is one of such para mount importance that it can not be relinquished until successful.
