METCALF WILL NEVER OPEN BOX Believes City Committee Has No Such Authority PUTS IT UP TO COUNCIL Chairman Says It Is the Councils Province to Decide Whether or
 Not Votes Were Cast
 Illegally.
PUTS IT UP TO COUNCIL

While A. A. Gambill, who is contesting the election of Asa L. Hoyt of the Third ward, is eager to have the ballot box of the general election opened. and while A. A. Gambill has warm friends on both the executive committee and the city council, 1t begins to appear that neither body is willing to prize off the lidl
 Walter Metcalf, chairman of the execu- tive committee, stated last night that it was his opinion that the committee would never open the box. "If the committee, furthermore" stated Chairman Metcalf, were to decide to open the box I am frank to confess that the committeeman would have to elect another chairman. would leave.
 Tn reference to this controversy, it Is my opinio nthat were we to open any box save a primary box of our ward we would be in the role of private citizen illegally opening a ballot box.
 MT. Gambill asked me today that if I were assured by legal talent that the com mittee had a right to open the box would l open it. I told him yes but I will tell you that every lawyer in the state of Alabama, I mean it, everyone, would have to inform me that we had the power, and 1 would insist that some fronA Geor- gia and Mississippi add their opinions"
 MT. Metcalfs statement was a frank ayowal that if the ballot box of the gen eral election was opened at all it would
 Tt is up to the city council" stated
 Tt is up to the city councial," stated ATr at fto al fo Mr. Eggleston. It is the city councils province to determine whether or not a vote is illegal. We have furnished that body with a certificate of MT. Hoyt's election. Later we advised them that MT. Gambill had filed contest. But we did mot ask them to postpone or hold up the election of MT. Hoyt.
 Our request of the city council tonight was that the clerk should furnish us with list of all voters not voting the straight democratic ticket. The resolu- tion adopted by the council authorized the clerk to appear with the box in ques- tion. We asked for the list of voters. The council gives us the box, but evil dentlY expects us to compile our own list You may say for me that I am quite certain that the committee will not jeopardize itself by opening the box, and for me, personally that l will never open It under any consideration
 During the conversation MT. Metcalf ex- pressed the opinion that, according to the resolution of MT. Gregg arranging for the primary, all voters registered for the pri- mary of July 27 were eligible to partcl- pate in the primary of September 21. He thought that if any votes were cast out they would be the 19 that registered at a later date.

FIRE ENGINE READY
 FOR ANY EMERGENCY

The Birmingham fire department has a fire station on the fair grounds that will prove both an intersting exhibit and valuable protection for the prop erty There are several plugs, ready for use and with this protection there is no danger of fire gaining any headway
 Right in the middle of the grounds is a spacious tent, with five cots, stalls, and all the advantages of a fire station. No wagon, the newest apparatus owned by the city, is hitched up with the most improved harness, and is shining in it's bright new colors.

The Birmingham age-herald., 1908-10-10

The rain gee refused to allow many of Birminghram's visitors to take in the Alabama State Fair yesterday, but while thre rain fell the finishing touches were put on the exhibit building, and the tents for the amusements Down the Line" were erected, so that this morn- ing there is not flaw in the whole show.
 Weather permitting, the ten free amuse- ments, including Riccis band concert, and two big running races will be put on this afternoon, and the whole night pro- gramme will be carried out in front of the grandstand.
 Tomorrow afternoon a sacred concert will be given by the band in the grand stand and it is probable that the eX- hibit buildings will remain open. While the visitor today will have the advantage of seeing and enjoying everything, the real crowds are expected to flood the grounds Monday, and until the closing day, without intermission, the Fair will be flooded with sight-seers. As soon as the information goes out that this is be- yond doubt the greatest fair in Ala bamas history the big attendance will commence.
 Trains yesterday brought in great loads. The Birmingham and Atlantic used three extra coaches, and all day the Terminal station exits were pouring forth people into, Birmingham.
 The few who did brave the clements yesterday found comfort after reaching the Fair grounds. The pavement sheds all water, there is no mud, and the ex- hibit buildings are perfectly dry. Every one was sure of surprise upon reaching the interior of the main building. There was never more satisfied person than the man who had walked between the lines of the county exhibits, made the circle of the balcony and spent hours inspecting the unique wonders which fill every space.
 Today there will be two balloon ascen- sions, Schreyer will make his daredevil dive, and all the midway amusements will be in full swing.
