board If It had been held up.
Andrade tried TO put AN amend.
ment to Trent's motion that Tavares
be called before the next meeting Of
the board. but Trent said he would
not vote for It.
Finally It was decided to adjourn,
as the hour was ten-thirty and the
board had accomplished nothing in
two and one half hours
After adjournment. Andrade said
that he knew kavares well and he
would not hold up petition which
was intrusted to him. Also that as
he was in town he would have him
before the board to tell his side of
the story Monday afternoon. as Ia
wares had right to be heard under
the circumstances.
1t seemed to be the opinion of the
board that Trent was blocking mat
tiers of large leases unnecessarily,
the opinion being that he was try
ing TO postpone action until after
election, or until one of the other
members of the board returned Ia
the Territory, so that he could then
vote no and still have the lease car
ried without taking any of the
blame from Hawaiian and Portu-
guese voters over such action.

AT last the postmastership for Birming-
ham seems settled Judge Joseph H..
MONTGOMERY last night received a tele-
gram of notification from p. D. Barker,
Alabama's national republican committee
man. who has been in Washington sever
al days While not official, it is posi-
tive information, and corroborates the re-
ported agreement between Secretary
Hitchcock and President Taft which
Judge Montgomery brought back from
Washington.
That his commission has been signed
and Is no doubt on the way to Birming-
ham through the mails, would indicate
that Mr. Montgomery will be postmaster
within the next few days, taking charge
of the office at the beginning of the
quarter. The commission should arrive
Monday and as soon as the postoffice in
spectors check up the office Judge Mont
gomery. under his recess appointment,
will succeed j. Rivers Carter, who has
held the office nearly year beyond the
regular term.
1t is we'll understood that N. L. Steele,
who received the appointment during the
last session of Congress, but was not
confirmed, due to senatorial courtesy de-
manded by Senator Joseph F. Johnston,
will receive the vacancy caused by Mr.

Montgomery's promotion from the assist
ant district attorneyship.
That the President after his last ex-
perience, did not make this appointment
without consulting both senators from
Alabama, makes Judge Montgomery ap-
pointment doubly sure. That he will be
confirmed by the Senate is considered a
settled fact by his friends.
Comments by Citizens
The appointment meets with widespread
approval, for there are few men in Bir-
mingham more popular than Judge Mont
gomery. Judge w I. Grub, of the dis
trct federal court, said II am delighted.
Montgomery is a close friend of mine,
and l feel confident that he has the
ability to make us a competent post
master. We will, of course, feel his loss
from the district attorneys office, but
will rest satisfied that he is giving Br-
mingham a thorough business adminis-
tration of her postal affairs. He is to be
congratulated
Said Judge Dan Greene: "I had the
pleasure of being associated with Judge
Montgomery as law partner for a, long
time. Our relations have always been
friendly, and feel sure that he will make
us a first-class postmaster
John Copeland, good friend of Mr..
Montgomery's was elated. Il know Joe
Montgomery to be fine fellow, and a
competent business man. He should and
will make us one of the best postmas-
tiers Birmingham has ever known. Good
luck to hon.
John D. Elliott said Suits me. | had
the pleasure of doing all / could for
Judge Montgomery. and I am glad to
see that Joe has it. He is the man for
the place"
f. w. Dixon said: Montgomery will
make us a fine postmaster. He is com
petent and will always be found looking
after Birmingham's interests. We need
a man of his caliber, and / hope he will
be confirmed"
N l.. Steele, whose appointment failed
of confirmation, on being informed that
Mr. Montgomery had been appointed,
said: There is no one would rather
see postmaster. ] am truly delighted that
Mr. Montgomery has been appointed"
Expired Nearly Year Ago
The Birmingham postmaster's term ex-
pired nearly a year ago. President Taft
delayed action until after the FIRST of
the year, while a half dozen candidates
prepared petitions. Judge Montgomery

Monday morning.
Senator Bankhead is a member of the
board of directors of the association, and
has been prominently identified with the
movement since Its inception IL years
ago. He is an influential member, and
with the Endorsements that he possesses
from Birmingham It is believed Bir-
mingham has a good chance to secure
the meeting.
Senator Bankhead has been given an in
vitation by the Alabama Good Roads as
ISOLATION, the Jefferson county associa-
ton. the Chamber of Commerce, the
Board of Trade and quite few promi-
nent men. Tuesday morning Mayor Gull
pepper Exum will wire Senator Bank
head an invitation on the part of Bir-
mingham.
In speaking of the efforts that are to
be made to get this convention for Bir-
mingham In 1911 Senator Bankhead said
he would try to impress upon the dele
gates the fact that the south is entitled
to the convention and that Birmingham
is awaiting 1t with open arms.
The National Good Roads association,
which meets in Oklahoma City October g.,
and 5, is a duly incorporated body by
the government and is in no way con-
nected by the Good Roads congress that
selected Atlanta as its next meeting place
In 1911 provided that city raises $4,000
for entertaining.
The latter association is in effect an
individual association.

means possible to get Birmingham prom

MCCORMACK SEES AIR
FLIGHTS IN CHICAGO

Ellis Mccormack second vice president
and general manager of the Pratt Con-
solidated Coal company, returned yester-
day from Chicago. While visiting there
he witnessed a few trial voyages by Avia-
tor Brookins, and expressed the belief
that such wonderful exhibition should
bring thousands of persons to the State
fair which opens here next week
Mr.. Mccormack said he never before
realized how far advanced aviation had
become until he witnessed the flights in
Chicago, which ended In Springfield.
II shall be more eager now to see the
air flights at the State fair than before
I saw them in Chicago. The flights are
simply amazing, and no possible concep-
ton can be formed of the interest they
create The minor sports such as foot
ball, baseball and other pastimes are
tame compared to the sensational feeling
that follows a flight in the air.

COAL TRADE FINE
J. II. Ryan Thinks Production This Year
Will he Largest In States History

r. r. Ryan, president of the Corona
Coal company, was in Birmingham yes
terday. In speaking of the conditions of
the coal trade, he stated that his COM
pany had as many orders could be
filed reasonably, and that he understood
that every coal company was extremely
busy.
Our business has increased a great
deal this year. said Mr.. Ryan. "Our
usual order with the New Orleans and
Northeastern was increased this year
about % per cent In addition to this de-
cided increase other orders have in
creased, and some new ones have been
given. The situation from our point of
view is so very much better than ever
before that a comparison is unfair !
think Alabama will mine more coal this
year than in any year in the history of
the state.
although this Is true, Alabama is min
ing a very small tonnage compared to
the other great mining states. This leads
me to believe that Alabama is just be-
ginning her great mine developing.
81 hope some day to see this state
| among the very largest mine centers in
! the country"

CIVIL SERVICE men

Plan Protest Against Retire
ment Plan
THINK 1T IS UNJUST
Number of Prominent Citizens Have
Been Invited TO Be Present-Meet-
ings Held Today All Over
THINK 1T IS UNJUST

A mass meeting of the civil service EN-
ployes of Birmingham and citizens gem
orally will be held this afternoon begin
ming at O clock in the assembly hall of
the Chamber of Commerce. The meet
ing will be opened by S. ID. Harris, state
president of the United States Civil Ser
vice Retirement association He will,
after explaining the purpose of the meet
ing turn the craftsmanship over to Post
master j. Rivers Carter, who will pre-
side permanently.
The meeting is for the purpose of pro-
testing against the proposed enactment
of the Gillette bill, now before Congress,
which In trying to formulate a retire.
ment plan, calls for the deduction of
certain per cent from each employees
salary to be held in trust a retirement
nucleus The employees in protesting
against the plan state that it would work
a hardship on hundreds of their number.
In addition to this the plan would take
from the Birmingham district over $780,
900 every year.
The meeting this afternoon will be to
put this matter clearly and logically be-
fore the business people of the city and
those who are interested in the advance
ment of the civil service and the up
building of the Birmingham district.
In addition to the Gillette bill before
Congress there is one that provides
straight retirement plan which has been
Endorsed by great many employees of the
postal department who are also members
of the civil service. They state that the
hill which will be Endorsed Is the logical
one, and one which Is based upon busi-
ness lines. They state that no hardship
is worked upon anyone by this enactment
which is proposed. and that 1t should be
taken up rather than the one that does
make the clerks and employees bear an
extra burden.
The conference this afternoon will be
one of several hundred which will be held
simultaneously in many large cities OF
America. The result of the various meet
ings will be given the officers In Washz.
ington, and it is hoped to assist the de-
feat of the Gillette measure and the en-
actment' of the other in this manner.
Mr.. Harris, in speaking or the meet
ing, had this to say:
1.-THE civil service employees count on
public interest to further their cause, as
the gist of the Gillette bill affects all
business interests in this district. There
are number of prominent speakers
booked to discuss both bills and arrive at
the most economical ana practlcal meth
cd to be presented to the United States
government for adoption.
Meetings are TO be held throughout
the United States In all prominent cities
on Saturday The President of the United
States and the department at Washing
ton favor a retirement annuity fund.- but
not as provided by the Gillette BILL
..There will be music and refreshments
All civil service employees, business men
and ladies' are cordially invited to be
present"
