 November goth, 1906. EDITOR FL CENTRo PRESS
 Fl Centro, California.
 DEAR SIR: My attention has been called to the fact that items have appeared in the various local newspapers to the effect that Mr. Herrin, attorney for the s. P. Co.,, had paid a visit to the heading re- gently for the purpose of obtaining data to be used in the making of a claim against the Mexican gov ernment for the damage which the SIP. Go. suffered due to the break in the Colorado river through which its waters reached the Salt on Sea. This is entirely untrue and the $. P. Go. at no time has ever had the slightest intention of ever presenting claim to the Mexican government through any channel whatsoever, as 1t has al- ways realized and continues to do SO that 1t would be not only abso- lutely useless, but little less than infamous to do such thing to- ward a sister republic whose only motive in granting permission to take water through its territory to American soil was to render possi- ble the development of this im- mense and fertile Imperial Valley.

MUST GIVE IT BACK

Result of a Decision of the Supreme Court Will He the Augmentation of City's Cash on

Birmingham, April 4.-(Special. .)-At tonighats meeting of the city council City Attorney E. D. Smith. submitted a report in effect that the former may or, w. M. Drennen. will be required to repay to the city all salary received while chief executive of the city over s2,5OO per annum, in accordance with a decision just handed down by the supreme court. It seems that George Griffin, citizen. brought suit to com pei the former mayor to pay back to the city such amount over $2,500 as was being paid to him, he claiming that the council had no right to fix the salary over $2.500 per annum. The case went through the courts and was recently decided by the supreme court.
 The council tonight granted the Bir- mingham Terminals Company the right to close four avenues for ten months in order to erect a million dollar union depot in the eastern part of the city The work on the depot could not be carried on conveniently with the ave- nues open. Contracts were awarded for street, alley and sidewalk paving and other improvement to the amount of $7O.000, the Southern Btthullthlc Company getting more than $45'OOO worth of the work

The Report of Dr. Ward Shows Some Glar-
 ing Evils.

"The present county convict system is a stench in the nostrfls of the de- cent people of the State" said Pres ident Shirley Bragg in discussing question brought up by the exposure of the way in which the convicts of Mobile County were treated by the lessees.
 The statement of Dr. Bragg had more than a local interest for 1t pres ages one of the live questions which islature. A definite effort will be made to have the county convicts put under the same system as that which has done so much for the State. This sys- tenn is perhaps tire most successful now In use by any state. 1t has proved itself of wonderful financial value to the State and 1t has been no less g benefit to the conyicts themselves than to the State Treasury. To change the present system of county convict em' ployment so that their condition will be ameliorated and so that the coun- ties in proportion will draw the same sort of revenue in proportion as tht State now draws. a strong effort will be made in the Legislature.
 The county convict question was brought to the attention of the public through the sensational reports made by Dr. W. c. Ward, County Physician of Mobile County. on the pitiful con dition of the convict of that county stationed at Flat Top mines in lief ferson County. What he saw of the contrast between the way in whicf the State convicts and the county

TO FIGHT THE BILL
MONTGOMERY WILL KEEP UP ITS
 OPPOSITION.
Ala5or R. B. Steiner Will Go On to
 Washington to Oppose the Ell In Committee.

The Underwood court bill will be fought before the Judiciary Commit tee of the House by the bar of Mont gomery. Major K. E. Steiner will ap- pear before the committee as the rep resentative of the Montgomery bar.
 The bill, it will be recalled, was un- expectedly called up in the Senate ana passed by Senator Pettus. The same bill was before the House, but there had been no opportunity of calling 1t up for passage. The fight on the unjust measure will be made in the House and before the Judiciary Committee.
 The bill gives Birmingham six months of the Federal Court, which means that in preparing for and closing up the business of the court at least seven months will be required. That leaves just i've months for the Federal Court dn Huntsville. Anniston, Tuscaloosa and Ndontgomery. The bare statement of this fact shows the injustice of the bill to every city and every interest except that of Birmingham. The bill was drawn frankly and plainly for the in- terest of Birmingham and for the sbene- 1t of Birmingham every other city in the district Is injured.
 As soon as he receives word from Washington as to what time the com r1ittee will hear him, Major Steiner will go on to Washington.

Small Chance for Reunion.

It has been learned that there is small chance of Birmingham getting the next reunion of the United confed- crate Veterans.
 The reunion for 1907 will in all prob ability go to the old capital of the Confederacy. Richmond. Va. as the monument which Is to be erected in that city by the people of the South to perpetuate the memory of Jefferson Davis will be ready for unveiling by next year. and the people of Richmond have asked that the next reunion be held in their city, so that occasion will be of national importance.
 The committee of representative cit- iezns appointed by the Commercial Club some time ago has already been at work on the matter and have gone far enough to learn the above facts. and also that the executive committee of the United Confederate Veterans Association has recommended. or will recommend, that Richmond be given the next reunion.
 However, the committee has not ceased its labors a.ld If 1t finds that there is no chance for Birmingham to get the 1907 reunion il will go to work to get one the year following. and 1t is believed that there will be no trouble whatever in bringing the 1S0S reunion to this city.
 The monument which is to be un- yelled in Richmond in honor of Jeffer- son Davis will cost, when completed. something like $10o.000. The move. ment was started several years ago oy the organization of the Jefferson Davis Memorial Association. and the work ot soliciting subscriptions vas carried on through the various Confederate or Ranizations, Daughters of the Confed- eracy etc. throughout the South.

A PLACE OF H0NoR|
PORTRAIT OF JOEL WHITE IN
 STATE,s COLLECTION. N
The yeteran Book Seller of Alabama,
 Leader h Library An::1uarian ana Movements 10 Honored.

-ss
 Dr. Thomas M. Owen. director of the department of Archives and History has received handsome oil portrait and antiqu. rian of Montgomery and
 Alabama. for his collection of his- torfcal portraits.
 i The painting was presented by Ed IC. Fowler, who for several years was associated with Mi. White in the portrait is by Huffman and is strik- l ing likeness of the man. who did so much to build up the historical move- ment in Alabama.
 MT. White at the time of his death about ten years ago. was the oldest bookseller in the United States. He entered the book business in Mont gomery in the early 40's and continued in this business until the time of his
 death in 1896 when he was Ss years lof age.
 Mr. White was collector of old | and rare volumes and he contributed l lliberally to practically every library | in the State. At the close of the war when the valuable library at the uni- versity of Alabama had been burned | by Federal raiders, he donated a num- Der of volumes'to the University which
 became the foundation for the pres ent magnificent library of that insti- tuition. He was also a liberal donor to the SupreI -ourt library and many of the valuable books of the historical library of Dr. Thomas M. Owen, which was destroyed by fire a few weeks ago. were secured from
 Mir. White.
 T think the portrait of the found-
 CT of the antiquarian movement in | Alabama deserves prominent place lin this collection" saii Dr. owen yes-
 terday "and am rejoiced to have se- cured this portrait" It has been tenn porarily placed in front of the secre- ltary's desk in tho Senate chamber.

NOT A MEMBER
of Inc Chri.tian science Faith

The Brooklyn Daily Eagle on March 23rd, published an account Of alleged gross neglect of child by a nurse whom 1t was stated was Christian Scientist.
 The item referred to has been repub- lished and commented on by several newspapers and editors throughout the country. This is very much to be regretted as by so doing the large body of law abiding citizens known as Chris tian Scientists have been grossly ma ligned and misrepresented.
 The nurse in question Is not and never has been a Christian Scientist nor has she been connected with Christian Science in any way.
 The Brooklyn Eagle of March 26th very gracefully published the encolsed answer to these charges, which you see were totally without foundation; in deed it seems incredible how such ac- tion as was attributed to this woman could in any possible way be confouno- ed with, or likened to, the benign prac- tice of Christian Science as carried out by Mrs. Eddy's followers.
 In conclusion I would request that you kindly insert this letter in your paper together with the article which vo1 printed in your paper of March a7th. and also the official answer to the charges which was published In the Brooklyn Daily Eagle on March 2eth. By doing so you will be assist ing the cause of Truth and Love and in a measure lifting the dark veil of mis- representation. and columny. from the body of Christian Science workers in your midst.
 Yours truly.
 F. Harley Davis. E. M Publication Committee for the State
 of Alabama.
