 We'll Earned Victory.

Nashville, November 2S.-For the first time in five years the University of the South (Sewanee) football team crossed Nanderbilts goal line in their annual game at Dudley Field today. The men from the mountain played steady, hard ball, but Vanderbilt maintained her prestige and won, 17 to F. The game was on soft field which interferred with fast end plays and also with the forward pass. but it was a close, exciting contest, wit messed by a brilliant crowd. The men were about evenly matched as to weight and Sewanee seemed to excell in plung- ing and hauling over Frequently the visitors tore through Vanderbilts line, but the latter made good with end runs and twice used the forward pass sue cessfully. One of these was a most spec tacular play in which Stone snapped the ball 25 % yards to " Blake, who passed it to B. Blake and he in turn passed it on to the flying Stone. who was downed on the four-yard line and the ball was carried across. Two of Vanderbilts touchdowns were made in the first half and the last half was replete with ex- element

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.
The Railroad Controversy.

To the Editor of The Age-H erald
 In view of the fact that the indiscrimi- nate fight now being waged against the railroads has been carried too far, and should be stopped, without doubting the sincerity of some of those who have fa- vored the movement and recognizing that in some respects their efforts have result ed in good, it must be nevertheless ap- parent to every one that the agitation has gone to a dangerous extreme. As is ap- parent to every fair minded citizen the real demand of the public is not for cheaper rates, but for improved servicei Cheaper rates are not desired at the cost of inferior service. The shipper de- mands the quick placing of cars for load ing and unloading; the rapid transporta- ton of freight and the prompt settle ment of claims for damage, loss and overcharge. The travelling public demand convenient and reliable schedules com fortable cars and that the number of ac- cidents due to inferior equipment and roadways be reduced, and that an end be put to the fearful maning and kill ing of people that the press daily report. The agitation should be confined to en- forcing these demands. But the reduc- ton at this time of freight and passenger rates in the face of the enormous in- crease in operating expenses, so far from accomplishing this result. simply cripples the roads and renders the improvement of their service impracticable. The state of Alabama and especially the city of Birmingham Is the last place on earth to make war on the railroads. Upon them depends Birmingham's very existance; upon their growth depends it's own growth.
 
 natural railroad center Not less than 15,O0O men in the Birmingham district to- day are in the employ of the railroads. and more than 4O,0OO people are directly dependent upon them for their living. Cut down the revenue of the roads and the inevitable result will be that they in turn will be forced to cut down the sal aries and wages of their employees. If the governor and legislature of Alabama shall succeed in bankrupting the rail-
