Cincinnati, December 28.-According
to Alexander Mcdonald, who is the
principal owner of the Mobile, Jackson

ment but added:

the plan of reorganization President Jem-
ison said yesterday:
THE great number of important public
questions that are just now being handled
by the Commercial club has impressed
me with the necessity for a much stronger
organization, with larger revenues, with
which to carry on the campaigns for the
public good that are constantly COM
ing up.
Il was never so much impressed with
the importance of the Commercial club
as at the last meeting when several
hours were consumed in the hearing of
reports of regular and special commit
tees that have been and are s.ll engaged
in handling large public undertakings.
Take for instance, the several special
committees that have in hand the ar
rangements for the entertainment of the
delegates and visitors to the Southern
Cotton convention, to be held in Br-
mingham in January. This is one of the
largest undertakings ever attempted by
the people of Birmingham. More than
5000 representative bushes men from
all sections of the south will attend this
convention and it will, without doubt.
be one of the .rrgest ever held in Biz
mingham.
"These several committees engaged in
working out the various details of the
entertainment and the caring for the
large gathering of people are all doing
good work, but are hampered by lack
of funds and organized support.
Work for Sub-Treasury.
another instance of the clubs good
offices is the work that is being done
, in an effort to secure the location of the
new ub-treasury The campaign and
,, finance committees appointed some time
ago to conduct this campaign are doing
excellent service. but they ere also ham,
pered to some extent b. lack of moral
and financial support.
1.-The Commercial club IL also taking
lead in the state in the question of
immigration legislation and is constant
ly called upon to work out other problems
of vital importance to the welfare of the
community and state. 1t seems to me that
an organization with such wide scope
of usefulness should have the moral and
financial support of every public spirited
citizen in the Birmingham district.
"A majority of the most prominent bus
mess and professional men of Brming-
ham are already members of the club and
many of TN take an active interest in
every matter that comes up consider
alton. but / will not be Itisfed and no
other member sho be, until every citi-
zen of worth in the city end district Is
an active member and is lending some
of his time and money to the work of inn
proving the social and business welfare
of the community.

FOURTH OF JULY DON'TS

Don't get the day mixed up with cir
Gus. This is the real old Fourth Of July,
and no imitation about 1t.
A bunch Of Arecrackers tied to dogs
tail and set to popping will run him seven
miles and make him cross-eyed at the end
of II. Don't do II.
II you go out riding don't try to make
the horse go faster by exploding torpedoes
on his back. He knows the day as well
as you, and will try to do his best.
It's no day to go fishing, but II you do
60 don't be disappointed II the fish you
catch are not red. white and blue and
have no stars painted on their tails.
Don't buy half q pound Of powder and
carry II loose In your coat pocket.
Powder has been known to lift boy 80
feet into the air and drop him back with
a thud to hurt It's day for balloons to
60 up-not boys.
II 1t rains. aud you happen to have the
right kind Of father. he'll let you cele-
brate upstairs or down cellar. Don't blow
the house up oftener than you can help.
Don't eat too much, drink too much,
nor yell too much. You want to have
something Of yourself left for another
day. If all the patriots had killed them
selves OF the drst Fourth Of July we
shouldn't have gained our independence.
The family cat ought to be willing to
sit on the fence and let you fire a toy
cannon at her for an hour or two. but IL
she objects, then don't do 1t. Fire at
somebody's goat or your neighbours dog.
We can't run this country without cats.
Don't get George Washington and
Christopher Columbus mixed up. One dis
covered the country and the other saved
it. One glass Of lemonade will do for the
