The Bond Issue Wins

Birminghams proposed $1,000 bond is
and the large majority in favor of the
proposition was most gratifying TO all
who have due regard for the citys
credit This bond issue was made neces-
sary by the creation of Greater Birming
ham.
Had the proposition failed to carry at
the polls. the city would have been forced
to pay its employees in scrip and the mu-
nioipal credit would have been so inn
paired that every commercial and real
estate interest here. large and small,
would have been seriously hurt by it.
With city government financially Grip
Pied there could be no such thing as
boosting.
But the people of Birmingham took the
right view of the situation. Representa-
tive taxpayers and business men made
stirring appeal to the voters in behalf of
the band issue and the size of the ma
jority shows that in crisis. such as this
was, the people can be depended upon to
respond promptly.
The result of yesterdays election makes
Birmingham look brighter than ever. The
city will take fresh start, so to speak.
and with reasonably good tinanciering
and business management it will be able
to keep right ahead.

Confederate Coin

"A few days ago there appeared in The
Age-Herald a notice of the sale of a
| Confederate silver half dollar" said L. p.
Hill. THE article stated that there were
five of these coins made
These coins, as I understand, were
made in 1861 and there were only four
instead of five coined. Dr. B. f. Taylor
OF New Orleans was the coner of these
coins, and from him this information was
obtained. Years after he was the secre-
tary of the Louisiana Board of Health
with headquarters at New Orleans and
1 was assistant secretary of the said
Board of Health. While secretary of
the Board of Health Dr. Taylor sold one
of these four coins for $120o A Mrs. Col
Inns of Birmingham came into possession
of one of these coins. I carried this coin
to New Orleans and showed it to Dr.
Taylor, who pronounced it one of the
original coins coined in 1861 by the Con-
federate government, and he wrote a let
ter to me to that effect. Mr. w S. Lyde
Of Birmingham now has that letter in
his possession. as well as the coin, which
should make the coin worth at least $5000

$3.50. For further information 1 will be
pleased to furnish those interested

PITTSBURG COUNCIL

calling for the dismissal of three of
Mayor Magee's cabinet members was
laid on the table after a toncilatory
address by e. M. Bigelow was heard,
former director of public works.
Mr.. Bigelow argued that action
against no one should be taken until
charges were proved. He told by the
way of an incident of his official life
in Pittsburg he had once been offered
$4,000 by a Chicago concern to accept

Senator Hale will endeavor to prevent

both sides will muster -or a warm fight

in favor OF the retention OF the House

PULLMAN CAR RATES
ARE DEFENDED

Chicago. April 11.-John ;. Ruhnela
vice president and general counsel OF
the Pullman company, discussing the
interstate commerce commissions de-
cision ordering a reduction in the price
of upper berths to three quarters OF
the rates charged for the use of low
err berths, today said:
THE company might be willing TO
concede that the use of an upper berth
is worth less to the passenger than
is the use of a lower berth despite
the fact that it costs the company more
to provide the upper berth. 1 may
say that there might properly be a
less charge for uppers than for low
ers, but 1 wish to say emphatlcally
that the difference should not be so
much as the commission orders
with respect to the fairnes sof our
rates, l wish to say that the Pull
man company has not raised it's rates

many rates. On the other hand, no.

This increase would add 100000 to the
100000 population of ten years ago,
bringing the grand mainland total up to

able to put the increase of the last ten
years at is per cent.
The increase in Greater Birmingham
will exceed is per cent for obvious rea-
sons. Those reasons apply. however, to

of other cities. The game of annexation
is one that all cities consider themselves
free to play. and few indeed neglect good
opportunities in that direction.
