ALDERMAN PEARCE
MR.. SMITHS MANAGER

the carefully laid plans of the club leaders.
This is said to be the reason that the in
dorsement of a mayoralty candidate has
been deferred.
In the light of an expected Endorsement
of candidate for mayor the putting out
of an aldermanic ticket seems peculiar.
Especially so when each candidate now In
TIC field claims that he has both friends
and enemies on the aldermanic ticket
According to political usage, it would
seem that the club would nominate an al
dermanic ticket that would be in full &C
cord with its candidate for mayor. II any
one of the mayoralty candidates could
claim all of the aldermanic candidates as
his supporters 1t would be a safe bet that
he would receive the Endorsement of the
club. Any candidate they might indorse
would be at a disadvantage with a dissat-
isfed aldermanic ticket behind him.
Smiths Fight VIII be Aggressive
1t is known that Alderman Pearce, Mr..
Smiths campaign manager is aggressive.
He has always shown that he is a clean,
clear cut, hard fighter in all political mat
ters. 1t Is therefore assumed that Mr..
Smiths campaign will be strikingly ag-
gressive from start to finish.

FREIGHT WRECKED
On the Southern Railway by a Land
Slide.

wrecked freight train and the serious
injury of Engineer 2. S. Moore, was the re-
suit of a landslide on the Southern railway
Friday night.
About 10:15 o'clock the westbound FREIGHT
came out of Cardiff tunnel running at ful
speed and struck a pile of rock and dirt.
derailing the train and tumbling it down
the hill distance of over twenty feet At
the point of the wreck the track runs
around curve. On one side is q high cut
ana on the other steep embankment. The
continual wet weather had evidently Ioosan-
ca the dirt and rock and 1t started down the
MIL the track stopping it as it fell from
the edge of the cut. The whole train cop.
slstins of an engine and four cars. fell down
the twenty-foot incline.
Engineer Moore was Imprisoned In the
engine and had to be pulled out, being con-
siderably bruised, and badly burned from
the escaping steam. He was brought to the
city and is now at Hillman hospital
Fireman Brown was also slightly in
cured, having been thrown from the engine.
Superintendent Frazer with the wrecker
and large crew went to the scene of the
wreck and after about ten hours work the
obstruction was removed and passage made
clear.

GOLDEN GATE EXCURSION.
Large Number of Tourists Stop Long
Enough to See Birmingham.

Besides the special train load of news
paper men from the northern states, Biz
mingham yesterday entertained in an in
formal manner large number of tourists
from the New England states who were
passing through ON one of the Golden Gate
excursions which are run every winter by
Raymond & Whitcomb.
1t was known that this excursion would
pass through Birmingham yesterday, but
no one had any idea that the passengers
desired to stop here for any length of
time. However, yesterday morning Assist
ant Superintendent Welsh. of the Louisville
and Nashville road received a telegram
saying that the party would stop over here
for an hour or two, and wanted arrange
ments made for making flying trip out
to Ensley. This Mr. Welsh promptly did,
and when the train arrived two of the
splendid new cars of the Electric COM
pany's Golden Rod route were in waiting
and nearly the whole party, eighty four in
number, made the trip out to the thriving
industrial center Of Ensey. They left the
city about O'Clock and returned shortly
before A.
These tourists were greatly impressed
with the great industries which are al
ready in operation there, and which are
now IN the course of construction. They
said that they had heard a great deal of
Birmingham, but had not expected to find
it in such a high state of industrial devel-
opment as it is. They complimented most
highly the splendid cars in which they
made the trip, and said that they would
have done credit to any city in the land,
The party returned to the city and left
on their trip south shortly after O'Clock.
The train in which they travelled is proba-
Oily the handsomest ever seen in Birming-
NAM Its coaches contain every improve
ment and every luxury known in the car
builders art They are palaces on wheels.

Action Of Railroad Men
The Endorsement of an adermanic ticket
by the Railroad Mems Political club did not
create the slightest ripple on the mayoralty
waters. Every candidate said some men
on the ticket were his friends and some
were not. Some could be elected and some
could not.
The clubs influence in the ultimate result
is recognized by each of the candidates,
and its decision In regard to the main con-
test will be awaited with much curiosity.
1t is talked about that the club was
first organized with the intention of indors-
ing Alderman John l.. Parker The story
runs that when another candidate stepped
into the field he interfered with some of

men from Birmingham" said Mr.. Waldrop.
Gwen bad birmingham"
Mr.. Shores said that personally he was a
convention man. but that his people wanted
a primary, and that he would vote accord
ingly.
Could Get All Six
Mr. Cowart said that he did not believe
the county convention held last April was
a failure, judging from the tremendous
democratic majorities rolled up last Au-
gust.
There are number of conflicting inter-
ests in Jefferson county" said he-"the dis
pensary people, the saloon people, the cor
poration people, and others. If primary
were held, one of these crowds could get
together and by concentrated vote, prob
ably of minority of the total vote cast,
get all six of our representatives from one
crowd or interest.
''If we have a convention, we will have a
thinking body of representative democrats,
who will have in mind all the conflicting
interests in the county, and we will have
a truly representative delegation to the con-
stitutional convention"
He moved that Mr.. Grays amendment be
laid on the table. n
Mr.. Gray called for the aye and nay vote,
and the result was as stated above.
Mr.. Cowart tried to raise the point of or
der that a majority of the committee had
not voted on the question. But he was in
formed that fifteen members constituted a
quorum Of the committee. ;,
The Gray amendment was then carried.
Mr.. Cowart moved that committee of
five be appointed to draft plans to carry
into effect the resolutions passed. The
chair, after consultation with r. ]. Lowe,
the permanent chairman, will announce this
committee.
Filled Vacancy
Edgar L. Mitzel and c. B. Rodgers of

vacancy in the committee from that beat

wanted to let the people of Bessemer vote

to win," said Mr.. Pearce yesterday. 1--WE
will organize in every block, in the city,
and Mr.. Smith is ready to meet any of his
opponents and discuss the issues of the
campaign"
Mr.. Pearce was elected a member of the
city council two years ago and will hold
over two years longer. His record on the
board will serve him well as Mr.. Smiths
campaign manager. He has been one of the
city solons who voted in accord with his
convictions. He has never followed In mat
tiers of public interest but has been among
the leaders.
"ae is a strong man to lead the campaign
of any candidate" said a gentleman yester-
day who has had half a score years ex-
perience in Birmingham politics.

of the leading business men of Birming-

ness and sagacity
