LOCAL OPTION BILL
SIGNED BY GOVERNOR

Montgomery, February 27.-(Special.)-
Among the bills signed by the governor
today was the local option measure,
commonly known as the Lovelady bill.
1t provides that on the application of one
fourth of the voters in a county vote
must be ordered on the question of the
sale of liquors in saloons or prohibition
In cases where there are dispensaries the
vote may be for liquors or against it
in dispensaries.
This bill was fought hard in committee
and in both houses of the legislature. 1t
makes the county the unit and is likely
to result in many big cities being forced
to give up the sale of liquors by being
voted down by the counties and the pro-
hlbition votes in the cities. Attempts
were made in both houses to have the

FIFTEENTH STREET
CLOSING QUESTION
JOSEPH T. COLLINS REPLIES TO
VICE PRESIDENT HARAHANS
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. ILL
NOlS CENTRAL.

To the Editor of The Age Herald.
In reply to Mr.. Harahan's interview in
yesterdays paper in reference to closing
Fifteenth street, l have the following
to say:
Instead of an attempt to 'hold up the
Illinois Central, as Mr.. Harahan charges,
the Illinois Central is attempting to 'hold
up the city of Birmingham and do direct
damage to property holders in that section
without compensation. The Illinois Cen
trail In taking possession of Fifteenth
street between First and Second avenues,
has unlawfully taken from the city a
strip of land fronting so feet on First
avenue and so feet on Second avenue and
800 feet deep. At the lowest figure this
land is worth $4,000 and belongs to the
public. l see no reason why the city of
Birmingham should give to the Illinois
Central $4O,0 900 worth of property unless it
be that Mr.. Harraman and the other
millionaire owners of the company need
the money and Birmingham doesn't. For
this property the company has never pro-
posed to pay anything, nor does Mr..
Harahan offer any compensation, but
seems to think because the company paid
some $1,000 or $4,000 for franchises along
the streets for thirteen blocks in the city,
this $4,000 of property should not be
charged for
Mr.. Harahan admits that damage may
be done to property owners in that Sec
ton, but offers no compensation other
than the right of action in the courts
In other words he says to the property
owner, remain perfectly quiet until l
damage your property, then sue. This
we don't intend to do and don't think
sane public will expect it of us. 1t
would be easy enough to determine this
damage by a fair and impartial COM
mission, were it the purpose of the COM
pany to do the square thing. However,
we contend that the street should be
opened, as it is not necessary to close it
"a fact admitted by Mr.. Harahan), in
which event property owners could not
complain.
The company has violated both the
'etter and spirit of the law in building
across this street 1t built without au-
thority and is daily maintaining a nuis-
ance. Were a private person to do this.
he would be prosecuted. The notice of
the law to close this street was pub
lished in an Ensley paper, which violated
the spirit of the constitution. People
affected are the ones to be notified of
local legislation. If acts of the company
had been righteous, 1t never would have
pursued this evasive and unlawful course.
| am willing to leave it to the public
to say who is guilty of attempting
''hold up" Mr.. Harahan or the property
holders in that section?
In conclusion wish to say that but for
our conscientious representatives in the
legislature, a law closing this street and
taking from the city of Birmingham
without pay $4,000 worth of property and
doing great damage to property, owners
in that section would have been passed

THE DAY IN CONGRESS
IN THE SENATE.

Washington, February 27.-After listen
ing to an argument by Senator Patterson
of Colorado in favor of government own
eTship of railroads the Senate today
agreed to the conference report on the
river and harbor appropriation bill. Pro-
tests were vigorously made against the
reduction from $3.50, 900 to S25O,O0O of the
amount for improvements in the Missis-
sippi river between Cairo and st. Louis
by Senators Hopkins, Cullom, Stone, AL
lisol and Everman. The smaller amount
prevailed.
The Senate passed without discussion,
the Daniel BILL establishing "the founda-
ton for the promotion of industrial
peace" 1t authorizes a board of trus-
tees to receive from President Roose-
vel. the Nobel peace prize, as the nu-
cleus of a fund to bring together at
Washington periodically representatives
of capital and labor to discuss labor
problems.
The expatriation bill also was passed. 1t
authorizes the issuance of passports to
persons who have declared their inten-
tion of becoming citizens of the United
States and have lived in this country
three years, and who wish to visit coun-
tries ether than the one of which they
are native. Such passports are GOOD only
for six months.
The bill fixes the status of American
women who marry foreigners and for
eign woman who marry Americans. In the
latter case, the citizenship of the wife
is retained during coveture and as long
as she continues to live in the United
States.
An American woman can regain her
citizenship after her marriage with a
foreigner terminates and she makes the
proper application therefor.
4-.e bill provides that naturalized
citizen of the United States who goes
ab.oad and resides for five years, shall
be presumed to have abandoned his Amer
lean citizenship. over fifty other bills
were passed.

The Cost of Living.

Do you know how much more on the
average it costs you to live than it did
in 1896? Bradstreet's Commercial
Agency, which keeps account of the
ups and downs of the price of commo-
dities has answered the question in
the last issue of Bradstreet's" which
says: Compared with the low level
set on July l, 1896, the gain is 54.8
per cent So if it cost you 500 a
month to live then, it now costs you
over $154. The protected trusts arc
the chief cause of high prices and
there seems to be determination by
the dominant political party to refuse
to revise the tariff which protects the
trusts and prevents competition. If
the Republican party wins in the COM
ing national election, the leaders will
declare that it is an endorsement of
the tariff policy of protecting the
trusts and there can be but little relief
from trust high prices as long as the
tariff protects them. AS large profits
have induced the trusts TO manufacture
more than the people can consume,
the surplus is sold abroad at bargain
prices. Why should hot the American
people Participate in these bargains the
trusts sell to foreigners?
