acres of land between the city and Wood- lawn, north of Avondale. This land is most ly unimproved and unoccupied and almost devoid of revenue. We would like to know from some of the annexationst advocates how would this property be benefited by encumbering it with the bonded debts of Birmingham and the additional taxes.
 We tried in the past to make city lots out of the property, and the state and county taxes alone liked to swamped us. Since we have gone back to the country methods and are now assessing by the acre and paying taxes on that basis with difficulty, and since we have abandoned the city lot idea and are trying to make mar ket gardens out of this land would like to know if we were taken in how much privil- ege taxes for conducting market gardens we would be force to pay Tax Collector Gambill, and if we could plant diversified crops under the same license.

VOICE OF THE PEOPLE
 ON GREATER BIRMINGHAM
Suburban Man For It

To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
 I am aware that much be said for
 and against Greater Birmingham, but it is
 not my purpose to refer to the many par
 ticular points that bear upon this question:
 but rather to refer to it in a general way.
 l am glad this question has come up, for
 it was inevitable that it would in time
 The history of all development and progress
 shows passing from particulars to gem
 erals. Competition is good, in that it forces
 us into combinations in order to meet com-
 petition occasioned by other combinations
 The proposed territory for Greater Bir-
 mingham presents the vigorous focus of one
 great city. Its parts are tied together by
 interests that are mutual which is shown
 by the swift commercial circulation
 throughout the territory.
 Since we are thus thrown together, each should act with reference to the
 whole. Economically considered, 1t is a
 great loss of energy for such communities
 as compose the proposed Greater Birming- ham district to act independently. This comes to us with greater force when we consider that the suburbs will have to have, in time, water works, electric lights, etc. These things our modern civilization de- mands, and for each to act independently in such matters would certainly be great | loss of power. Our present census does us as whole great injustice. We need the n- | 1uence that the census of Greater Blr- | mingham would give us. We need to get | close together if we would line up to the progressive spirit of the age. The contin- ued improvement, loocmotion and communi- | cation is obliterating distance and section j~alism is dying out in the light of modern | civilization. I feel that the people of the proposed Greater Birmingham district are | drifting into one great city. This is the | logical conclusion. I do not say that the | time is here. It is however, time to begin | considering the matter. It is a big ques- | tion. We should be careful and consider | the matter in all its bearings looking ahead.
 | do not think the suburbs should be | coerced; nor do I think that Birmingham | would want to thrust herself, unbidden | on the outlying districts. There is no special | hurry in this matter | Possibly, when this question is canvassed | inch by inch as it will be, we will be nearer | together than we now think

 E. c. BLOMBERG-I am opposed to any extension of the city limits. J. G. HOUSMAN-I am heartily in favor of Greater Birmingham. A. D.

 | B. F. MOORE-If manufacturing enter prlses are not to be injured by the ex- | tension, am in favor of it. GEORGE A. BUNCH-I would like to see | Birmingham spread over half the earth and take in the Philippines I am an expan- sionist.
 TOM BAINE-I am opposed to extension.
 s. II. BARRON-I am heartily in favor of the proposed extension. J. R. P. DURHAM-I have not given the matter sufficient thought to express an opinion
 DAVID J. FOX, EX-MAYOR-I am in fa- vor of annexation for one reason. The wholesale merchants of Birmingham are permitted to send their drummers to Avon- dale and Woodlawn to sell to the stores at those places, but retail merchants are not permitted to exercise that liberty without paying license. For instance if a porter from any retail store in Birmingham so- licits from a consumer in Avondale or Woodlawn for their trade the porter would be arrested.
 w. J. MCONNELL-The suburbs it is proposed to annex should be consulted, and only those taken in that are in favor of coming.
 GEORGE M. MORROW, EX-SHERIFF O. JEFFERSON COUNTY-I am opposed to annexation except for one reason, that t of sanitation. The sanitary question will be a very serious one in this valley with the rapidly increasing population. The matter can be handled better under one admnis- tration than several.

eide that the time Is not yet come for

decide that the time Is not yet come for expansion.
 Viewing the matter from a conservative and unselhsh standpoint, there is one argu- ment which should be sufficient to postpone the enlargement of the city limits to time in the future when the conditions shall be riper for expansion than they are now That is, that the city has already in it's corporate limits a very large area of ter ritory beyond its present necessities, and 1t is not able, financially or otherwise, to care for it's present household.
 If the outlying towns were in favor of annexation, and it could be effected with out undue hardship to the owners of inter- vening uninhabited lands, which cannot be be good thing; Sbut to say that in order to compel Gate City, East Lake, Wood avn, Avondale, East Birmingham, North Bir- mingham, Elyton and West End to come in and help pay the city's debts, 1t is wise and just to take in with them perhaps five not be needed for residence purposes within the next twenty years, is, to say the least, ncomprehensible
 Again, if these towns are absolutely nec- essary to Greater Birmingham" why are not Ensley City, Pratt City and Bessemer included? Why not incorporate Jefferson county into Greater Birmingham?" If half loaf is a good thing, why not take the whole loaf? J. K. M'DONALD.

Mir. Gibson Defends His Position

To the Editor of The Age-Herald
 I notice in The Sunday Age-Herald that Messrs. J. B. Woods and J. B. Burris, in their interviews, speak of me as the only man in Woodlawn favoring annexation or Greater Birmingham. In this connection, permit me to say that I have never dis cussed the matter with either of these gen. tlemen, and neither of them have any au- thorty to speak for me.
 Courtesy would suggest to one being in- terviewed that he speak only for himself.
