MINOR DEVELOPMENTS OF INTEREST.

The minor developments of this year have been the expansion of the wholesale and retail districts, the opening of new business houses and the construction of a great many residences in the city limits and the adjacent suburbs. While Birmingham is rapidly becoming a city of home-owners Qargely through the broad and liberal pol icy of this company it is worthy or note that rentals have shown. no diminution. This is explained by the fact that the influx of popula- tion fills houses as fast as they are vacated by people who move into their own homes.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1904-11-13
THESE REASONS
 SELF-CONVINCING,

Some of the reasons given for this growth of the jobbing trade carry conviction with them. Bir- mingham, by reason of being the Southeastern terminus of the Fris- co System, is given the same freight rate as Chicago on certain products of the Pacific coast, an ad- vantage enjoyed by no other South ern city. Birmingham is the only city in this section of the South where the finer grades of dress goods may be purchased at whole sale. birmingham wholesale grocers are importers of table lux uries. Her dealers in furniture, jewelry and art goods offer costly wares which cannot be found at points nearer than Cincinnati or St. Louis, Chicago or New York.

HIDDEN STRENGTH
 BROUGHT TO LIGHT.

To sum up, the strike has been the indirect means of revealing that Birmingham, in addition to being one of the greatest industrial ciues in the United States, is the commercial and financial center of Alabama.
 We think we have demonstrated that the strike has been of inesti- mable benefit to Birmingham. The city is not unlike a man, who, brought face to face with crisis, has discovered within himself sources of strength and courage of whose existence he had been in ig- norance. No wonder the people have taken heart of grace and are looking forward to the almost boundless possibilities of the new year.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1904-11-13
HOW THE GOOD OVERSHApoWS EVIL.

It may appear singular, not to say foolish, that we have reckoned the strike as a beneficent factor. It is true that the strike in one as- pect has been and is today an evil; but viewed from another stand point it is really that blessing in disguise so often mentioned and so seldom experienced. Five years ago such a strike would have been an unmixed calamity. Whatever re- tarding effect the present strike has exerted upon the city and the district, however, began to wane within a few weeks after it's incep- tion, and today that has been al most minimized, while the good which the strike has done is becom- ing more and more apparent.

"GET THE BEST
 IN BIRMINGHAM"

In other words, Birmingham has established the reputation of being the one city in this section where The Best is to be had, and the coun- try merchants of Northern and Central and South Alabama and of Mississippi are being drawn here in increasing numbers by this mag net fact.
