SPLIT SESSION IS DESIRED q
 BUT WILL SCARCELY OBTAIN

commission form of government bills, a revenue bill and a bill of appropriations shall be enacted into law and being.
 There Is every chance that local option will obtain without very much more op- position. The commission government bills are well .'greased" for final passage. There would be little trouble with an ap- propriation bill were the revenue bill en- acted. But on the revenue bill there Is serious doubt.
 Lieutenant Governor Walter D. Seed stated this morning: There is hardly a doubt but that the great majority of. the members of the senate and house are hopeful that a split session will be pro- vided for Many members must be in attendance on the spring session of the courts, and many other members must be home for the spring planting season. But it is my judgment that the fight against the revenue bill will be long drawn out one, and the split session is exceedingly doubtful. Should it eventually obtain. it will not be as soon as hoped for, and there will be few days left for the second session of the split"
 Bhe idea of Mir Seed is the general idea of the legislators.

REVENUE BILL WILL PROBABLY PREVENT THAT FOR WHICH PRACTICALLY EVERY MEMBER WAS HOPEFUL
By HUGH w. ROBERTS

Montgomery. February 1s.-(Special.)- Along with the innumerable other sins which heads of corporations and dealers in money throughout the state impute 10 the new revenue bill, it begins to appear probable that the consideration of that measure will render split session of the legislature impossible.
 There is just one beam of sunshine coming from behind the mass of clouds. And that is that the governor is not bent on carrying out every provision of the bill.
 It Is certain that the great majority Of the mepbers of the legislature are de- sirous or split session. It is equally as certain that the majority are determined that before adjourning a local option measure with suitable regulations, the

Wallop me. A. your every wit you have, 1hd all your argument henceforth on me alone. And, now, let us take up MT. White D.. Gibson (Age-Herald, February ID. One is constrained in this particular case to give very tender treatment as befits a man who openly confesses himself mortaly afraid of woman. Oh, MT. Gibson, 1t is not the question, are you a woman? Or are you a man? And ifHou are woman. why cannot talk with you! For a woman is this and that, and sometimes something else entirely different! And, very delicate mentally, terribly illogical, impossible to reason with, to point facts to-why a woman cannot ever meet man on his own grounds! e A Precarious Situation So, MT. Gibson.
 Realizing" he says, ''the delicacy of the position of him who dares differ with feminine writer. we shall accord her every courtesy within our power, nay ct catera."
 o, MT. Gibson. haec olim meminisse juvabt! Undoubtedly this gallant and chivalric gentleman is, indeed, in a delicate posi- ton. He certainly is.
 | furthermore he says that she. the au- | thor, he adds the less" to it-authoress-- he says, seeks an, elevated pedestal of legal and ethical discrimination" and. continues MT. Gibson with increasing elo- quence, i've think the mantel of thls great power rests more gracefully upon the courts and juries!''
 MT. Gibson says that! He has put il down in black and white in The Age Herald, February Il.
 And he means iti He means 1t with all his heart and soul. He really thinks that is where the mantel goes.
 Talk about chivalryl He doesn't even allow her choice of that which she would wear!
 To quote Mr. Gibson further still: "Tht rights of our people," he says, ''the whols people, are best preserved in courts founded upon the accumulated wisdom of ages!'
 Laughter on Olympus
 Think of that! Actually! There's | phrase now with what you call real wi behind it, rare, delicious! Give us more MT. Gibson: you delight the very gods! l Cannot her accumulated wisdom servs the purpose just as well? Are not thu rights of the people of Alabama to b' maintained solely and entirely by Tn, Birmingham Age-Herald and Her? Of course they are! Who denies it? Why have any courts at all in Alabama when, The Age-Herald exists? Wh, judges, lawyers. juries, when. she. whom z MT. Gibson sails ''suit censor" stepl | upon the stage? Why should courts Q

 'My opinion is that the revenue bill was gathered together very hastily and without much thought" said MT. weath- erly.
 And I am sure it isanot an administra- tion measure The governor has assured the people of Birmingham that the bill will be properly arranged before it goes to the senate. That is sure and the com mercial interests may rest easy on> this score. 4 4M
 Everything in Montgomery is quiet row, on account of the disbandment of the lawmakers. During the week some history making action has been taken. 'The next most important measures are the regulations which will be thrown around the Parks bill. They will certain ly be sponsored by the administration, in fulfillment of promise to differ from the radicalism of yore."

WEATHERLY SAYS REVENUE
 BILL WILLsBEs MODIFIED

James Weatherly, one of the best known attorneys of Birmingham, returned last night from Montgomery. where he has been for several days. MT. Weatherly rendered valiant service during the cam paign of Governor O'Neal and is very neigtborly with the governor.
 Last night MT. Weatherly added his opinion to that of w. P. G. Harding and other well known men that the revenue til would probably get some severe trim mngs before it was finally enacted into 6 law.
 Mir. Weatherly said that Governor o'Neal had no idea of infiicting upon the corporations or the people any un- necessary hardships, and as the revenue bill would be one if adopted in its pres ent shape. he thought it would be amend ed very materially.

"A Turk and large brown bear have
 been the center of attraction on the
 streets of Bessemer for the past few days. The man attracts a crowd with a bugle call and when the crowd has assembled puts the bear through a number of surprising stunts. such as dancing and acrobatic stunts that arc remarkable for such seemingly awk- ward animal. The little folks are es- pecially interested but view the antics of the bear from safe distance. No trouble is experinced in keeping the crowd back as all seem willing to give his bearship all the room he wants.

ACT OF A BULLY.

President Taft no sooner gains the
respect and applause of decent peo-
pie by strong statesmanlike speech,
for arbitration, than he forfeits their
good opinion by ordering the mobili-
zation of the army on the Mexican Dor
der.
II this show of force is to overawe
the regular Mexican government to
prevent a Japanese alliance and up
hold the Monroe Doctrine, it is a
Grass blunder of the stupidist kind.
II 1t is to overawe the insurrectos
and help Diaz out of his difficulties,
It is un-American and disloyal to the
traditions of liberty.
Anyway you look at it, the order
was that of big bully against a
small, weak nation or people.
And this goes, whether the order
was dictated by Wall Street or by
the super-heated imaginations of the
gold-laced brigade in Washington.
