FIRST, OF COURSE.
Birmingham Created the Street Railway Pas-
 senger Agent, /


 The Street Railway Review of July 15, issued in Chicago, has the following, which proves Birmingham to be the leader of many older and larger cities in the United States in having been the first to establish the office of general pas senger agent of street railroad:
 J. B. McClary, superintendent of the Birmingham Railway and Electric com pany writes us as follows:
 In your April issue you state that the Brooklyn Heights railroad was the first to inaugurate general passenger agents department. I beg to correct this We appointed a general passenger agent in June, 1892, and have had one ever since that time, except during the winter months, greatly to our advantage. I enclose letter head used by our agent in 1892 and also a photo of H. w. English, the first street railway passenger agent of America.
 MI. English resigned December 15, 1892 to accept position in his line, that of master mechanic, for the same com pany, and MT James k. Scott has filled the general passenger asents position ever since, thus making him the second in America, and the Brooklyn Heights Railroad company was the third to ap- point an agent. Birmingham has the honor, not Brooklyn"

GENERAL WEAVER IS HERE
Hasn't Determined Whether or
 Not He Will Speak.
.BRYAN'S ELECTION IS SURE
In His 0pinon-Remarks on State and Na- tIonal Poiities-Seems to Bear an
 Olive Branch.

Gen. James B. Weaver of Colfaxs la, the national leader of the populist party and their presidential candidate four years ago, is in the city stopping at the Morris hotel. He was seen by State Herald reporter last night, and the fol- lowing conversation was had:
 What is the object of your visit to Alabama?'
 q came at the request of Chairman Butler to look over the situation, partic- ularly with reference to furthering the election of members of the legislature who will vote for silver United States senator. The gold men are playing desperate game, and they are shrewd and full handed. We cannot afford to have our silver strength in the United States senate curtailed. If there is gold standard candidate for either branch of your legislature running in any county in the state he should be de- feated. Every Bryan man in the state, be he populist or democrat, should see to it that a silver man is elected in every instance No gold candidate can claim to be democrat since the acton or the Chicago convention. He belongs to the Hill-Whitney crowd, and will be found either supporting the contefhptible gold bug candidate for president, or he will do all in his power to send a goldDug man to the United States senate to ham, per and cripple Mr. Bryan's administra- tion."
 "Do you expect to make any speeches in the state?"
 q am not fully determined as to that; will determine tomorrow"
 What do you consider the prospects of Bryan's election?"
 "His election is certain in my opin- ion, and beyond question. We are living in the midst of political miracles, In whi rh human agencies are the smallest factors in the problem. The Bryan movement is simply irresistible, and has absolutely broken down all party lines -president?"
 "Too early to discuss that matter just yet; 1t Is in the hands of the two na- tional committees for adjustment. The candidates are both sincere and patriotic men. Senators Jones aud Butler, chair men of their respective national commit tees, are superb men in every way and can be trusted to handle the matter. They will find the way out. Should they fail the people will make short work of it. for they do not intend to lose the present splendid opportunity to secure relief and to overthrow the gold power. q trust the populist and democratic committees in this state may at once reach an understanding concerning the management of the approaching elec- tion. All causes of bitterness between the two parties should be at once re- moved, as it has been irrevocably deter mined that we are to be allies in the greatest national conflict of the century. We must not be only allies, but friends"

The Eloquent Georgia Executive Will Address
 the People of Selma Tonight.

Governor Atkinson will address the cit- izens of Selma tonight Wednesday, at 8 o'clock. Governor Atkinson is classed by his Georgiagfriends as the Bryan of the south," and his speeches are of that type of logic and oratory that not only please, but inform.
 Governor Atkinson has recently made two speeches in this. s.state, one at Opelilxa and one at Lafayette and has been greeted by audiences of from 2000 to 5000. He is outspoken for the Chicago plat form from A to izzard," and great ad- mirer of the presidential candidate. His speeches have done much good for the democracy of this state and Selma can prepare herself to hear one of the best speeches of the campaign tonight.
