Local Interest In Legislatures

 The anti-pass regulations which have been in effect since Governor Conner was effective in efforts to remove temp tation from the newspaper men have not met the approval of"railroad men or with the newspaper folk.
 It may be stated with positive as- surance that no obstacles will be placed in the way of the trimming by the rail- road men. The attorneys for the rail- roads who generally look after their clients interests before lawmakers are not inclined to prevent the legitima te use of transportation or the reforma- . tlon of the regulation. The executive agents here are not opposed to It and the safe passage of the amendment by Senator Screws rnay be counted upon.

For twenty-four unbroken years you played side by side with Henry IT, wing. and during that time touched the highest levels of the English stage. With him you generously stretched out hand to our own beloved Edwin Booth, for when in London Booths fortunes seemed to waver you invited him to your own theatre and brought speedy recognition. and to his Othello and Iago you added the grace of your Desdemona.
 And as our hearts have gone out to you so your own generous and impul- sive heart has gone out to anyone to whom you could give.

The railroads have never been op- posed to selling transportation for space in newspapers. claiming that such law was not in accordance with right to buy or sell as the indi- vidual desired.
 It should be explained. however, that any passes issued after the regulation has been removed would be only for intrastate use. No newspaper man. owner or other person riding on trans portation could use it out of the state or for interstate journeys.
 Should a person holding transporta- tion in Birmingham desire to visit At lanta and possessed transportation on every line he would be violating the law to use 1t to the state line and not pay the regular fare Tor the remainder of the trip.
 Birmingham railroad men are watch ing eagerly the result of the anti-piss regulation and hope that they may be able to deal with the newspapers after q short time.

RAILWAY MEN WILL
 ORGANIZE A CLUB
Plans Will Re Laid at Meeting of Local
 Railroad Oficers to He Held This Afternoon

Pursuant to call issued by l.. Sevier, general agent of the executive depart ments. of the Southern and Queen and Crescent railroads. meeting of railroad officers will be held this afternoon in the Chamber of Commerce assembly room. The railroad men have been endeavoring to organize transportation or railroad club for several days and permanent ac- ton will probably be taken at the meet ing today.
 The city of Birmingham has large number of railroad officers residents here, and 1t is the purpose Of the club to get them in closer touch with each other for mutual benefit.
 Several committees will doubtless be ap- pointed this afternoon to report upon the feasibility of the proposed club.
 In Atlanta and other places of less im- rortance than Birmingham and with few CT officers, ideal clubs are maintained by the railroad officers. They have been in dorsed by the executives as good. ser viceabe organizations. and no doubt the local efforts will be encouraged by the higher officers.
 The membership in the club which will be formed will not be limited to railroad men. but will include prominent shippers of the district should they wish to belong to the organization.
