Employees on Strike

The Employees of the Lehman Manufac- turing company, one of the diversified industries of Anniston, engaged in the manufacture of wooden materials, walked out of the plant in body yesterday. The cause of their action was a change in the policy of the company in insuring against the injury of it's workmen charging each individual $1 per month regardless of salary, and providing for only half pay while injured.

Money For Bridge Fund

Much enthusiasm was manifested
at last Friday nights meeting of the
Commercial Club and some splendid
work accomplished. The names Of
Attorney J NJ. owen and p. II. Gray
were added to the roll.
The report of the advertising COM
mittee was most expansive and
showed that upwards Of $3.50 had
been expended in advertising Noun
tain Home as the logical Jorbidge out
fitting point since last meeting; that
highly gratifying results were being
obtained and the good work was still
going on. For this purpose S24S per
month has been subscribed, and the
opinion was voiced that there was
more where that came from, if it was
needed.
The committee on roads reported
that all the work was done that was
possible at this time. on the road to
the river, connecting with the Brun-
eau road into Jorbidge that every
thing was in readiness for further
operation as soon as the weather
would permit, and that interested
business men had contributed $40
more toward the road fund.
The railroad committee announced
that it had received a letter from ID.
q. Burley general passenger agent
Of the Short Line. in which he said:
up to the present time we have
not undertaken TO advertise Jorbidge
as mining district, nor the available
routes from various points on our
line to that place. We have refralned
from advertising Jorbidge until it is
definitely determined that It is
mineral zone OF any Importance. We
put our foot in it several years ago
by advertising the Thunder Mountain
country, which later did not come
up to expectations. and, as a result.
we have not yet quite outgrown this
feeble effort on our part
The committee on revision OF by
laws reported, and among other
salient features. Il had considered It
best that the membership fee and
monthly dues should be doubled
All of these reports We're accepted
and ordered filed and the committee
on revision of bylaws was discharged
AS a stimulus to the reserve fund.
a motion was made and carried to the
purpose that each member will be
assessed 81 per month for March and
April in excess Of all other dues and
assessments. This will add some
thing like 5000 to the general fund.
and the penalty for non-payment is
