 Birmin9ham and Commission Govern Mobile Register.
 In view of the demand in Rirmlng- ham for the commission form of n1uni- cipal government. outside newspapers go about obtaining 1t. The people of Birmingham. or ( majority of them, appear to entertain suspicion about the city aldermen, three Of whom have been mixed up in trensactiona that we're open to criticism, and the election of an alderman by the council, after .hc had been defeated in a ward primary. broke down public reserve and brought about an indignation meeting on Sat- urday night, at which the action of the city board was strongly condemn ed. These conditions have caused the demand for commission govern ment, and there Is a suggestion that the Legislature will be applied to for the necessary authority.
 The people of Birmingham will ind in the new municipal code all the law they want to make such a change They have a police commission and a board of public works which will have charge of all city departments. It Is in the code that the question of whether or not there shell De a board and in the event Of an affirmative vote the people have the eIectipg of the members of the board. who are chosen by the entire city and not by wards. The presence of a board of public works constituted under the municipal code, leaves legislation and financing to the city council, the actual opera tion of departments being taken over by the board of public works q
 Mobile invoked the new code and its board of works now has ehaf&e, The city Is practically under the eonmis- sion form of government and It is be- Iieved that tlle change win work for the public good. Birmingham can do the same thing, without going to the Legislature. ~

WHAT AN INJUNCTION IS.
Simple Essay on . Complicated Judi
 cfai Proposition.

GfW8aV
 ciai Proposition.
 Ohio State Journal
 What is an injunction? It Is ju- diclal pFogfess requiring a party to do or refraih from doing d designated thing. Why Is 1t issued? Because of a sworn complaint that an unjust or unlawful thing is about to be committed and the effect of the injunction is to postpone the thing complained of until the court can decide whether 1t is right or not. What cases does if cover? Quite number, but the inn- portant ones relate to those matters where a person fears a threatened damage to his property. or person. The The injunction was born with sishns,as tns part of it. It was one of the first hu- man rights proclaimed. It Is pro- tective arm given to every man to as. sert his rights against greed, inso- lence, and oppression. It is a fruit of civilization. You don't find 1t in an- archies and despotisms. It is part of the history of progress of human rights.
 what's all this fuss about thenf Everybody comedies all this, don't they? Sure. But the trouble is that there ts a proposition to intervene with a trial by jury to overcome that judicial order which is the final de- fense of the intergrity and power of the courts. How will that do? By compiicAting and prolonging the judi cial process until 1t actually dissipates into nothing. Thus a grea right be- comes a sounding name.
 To illustrate: The law provides that no one not entitled to it, can use the union label without subjecting himself to certain penalties. Now, suppose some rascal used that label without and the court joined him. and he demanded a jury. long course of delays and postpone metlts. which may last for months or weeks or years, all the time the ras- cal pursuing his nefarlous business There is moro oppression in delay than in prompt action, for the latter, if faulty. may be promptly corrected.
