WILKINSON HOST
AT BIG BARBECUE
Wanted Men of the Trade to See
Fine Points of New !,
Grain Mill

The new grain mill of the Western Grain
company, of which II. Wilkinson is pres
dent. is in operation. The new plant
Is located on the corner of Tenth avenue
and Eighteenth street, north. and is said
to be one of the best corn mills ever
erected. The mill cost $4,000 approxi-
nately, and has a capacity larger than
my mill ever erected by that company.
All the operations are by automatic means
excepting throwing the meal bags onto a
platform. The corn is unloaded from the
freight cars into the elevators by auto
matte means, while it is conveyed through
every process in a like manner
Mr.. Wilkinson, In order to show the
wholesale grocers of Birmingham the
character of plant erected here, was host
at a barbecue given Saturday at the
plant. The guests were shown every de-
tail and expressed their interest and ap-
probation of such a modern piece of
work. The travelling statesmen, shipping
clerks and city statesmen of all the whole
sale stores were there. The company
provided for 200 guests, and that many
were present Several prominent men out
side the grocery trade were also ON hand.
3 Mr.. Wilkinson said yesterday that he
desired that the merchants here see ex-
ictly what had been constructed and to
convince them that tHe very best could be
secured in Birmingham, and for that
reason arranged the outing.

John w Sibley. president OF the Cham

The action OF Dr. W. II. Oates, state

clusiyely the necessity of the speedy

''rhe several Grand Jurics of the past

LETTERS TO EDITOR
Opposes Bond Issue

To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
With your kindly permission I wish to
present few figures which think will
be of interest to tho citizens of the coun-
ty. who will soon be called upon to ex-
press themselves upon the question of an
additional issue of bonds.
These figures are taken from the last
annual report of Mr.. T. o. Gillespy. coun-
ty auditor. which report may be had by
hose interested upon application to him.
Exhibit @ to said report shows that the
present bonded indebtedness of the county
IS sl,1oo00O, that the county must pay
$4,000 annually in interest upon same, that
100000 of said sum becomes due In 1917,
and that such bonds were issued and sold
N 1857 to construct our present court
house; that another issue of 100000 to con-
struct courthouse and Jail was sold in
1883 and become due and payable in 1919
Thus 1t will be seen that we must pay the
sum of 100000, exclusive of interest, with
IN less than seven years. all of which. is
shargeable to present courthouse and JAIL
which we are asked TO discard.
And for the information of voters who
may think that the business of the county
IS entitled to as careful and economic
management as one would give to his own
private affairs, j will state that no sink
ng or other fund has been set aside to
care for bonds when they thus mature,
This information was obtained from in
JURY of the treasurer, and in the audi
.or's Office.
The remaining 100000 of county bonds
all mature by 1891. and must be cared for
by new bonds, or in current moneys of
the United States.
In the opinion of the writer good BUSH
ness requires the defeat of this unneces-
sarily large issue of bonds for court.
houses. A much smaller issue might have
served to erect jail and criminal court
rooms, or better still, the present jail
might readily be rendered sanitary from
he current revenues. 4U
The hospital addition Is needed, and as
one may vote for 1t alone, 1t should carry.
In conclusion | will say that | have no
further interest In this matter than as q
citizen and taxpayer, but cannot gain my
consent under present conditions to vote
20 double our bonded Indebtedness at one
stroke. Get the report Of your auditor,
digest the facts shown by it, and teach it
to your neighbor. Is the suggestion of one

. atatemea. publlshea yesterday.

The statement published yesterday
morning that DR.. w. II. Oates. state
prison inspector, had ordered the removal
OF the prisoners confined IN the Jefferson
county jail to Gadsden caused much COM
ment yesterd ~ and various reasons were
assigned for the order.
Some time ago DIR. W. II. Oates con-
demned the county jail as a place unfit
for human haLitation" and ordered the
board of revenue to take steps toward
building a new Jail at once. He set the
time limit for April. 1872 when the new
building should be commenced and that
time found the board of revenue making
preparations to carry out the utimatum
of DIR. Oates. The new county court
house was being agitated and the board
dered a bond issue election to erect
q S1,o0o000 courthouse and Jail, which
will be voted on next Monday.
The statement that the prisoners would
BIO removed at once caused a stir in the
official family CT the county. although
late last night sneriff McAdory had not
been officially notified.
The prisoners got busy and drew up
petition which was forwarded TO DR..
Oates yesterday. Several prominent citi-
zers were interviewed on the proposition
and the following statements we're made:

CITIZENS, PROTEST
AGAINST CONDITION
Outlying Sections Are at the
Mercy of Burglars
DEMANDING RELIEF
Claim 1t Is Short Sighted Policy Of
the Commission Not to Allow
Enough Men to Patrol
the City

The latest burglary on the Northsids
was the cause Of wave of protest from
both the citizens of the South and North
sides to Chick Bodeker yesterday for more
police protection. For the past three
weeks the burglars of Birmingham have
been having a great time among the
homes on both sides of the CITY. and also
In the suburbs. Dr. Ashworth, whose
home was recently visited by thieves, yes
terday called it positively wholesale bur-
glary"
1T is actually becoming joke" said
DR.. Ashworth "A burglar can enter n
home In the suburbs or within four blocks
of the downtown district and take what
ever no wants and get away before po-
liceman can get within mile of the scene.
Several homes besides my own have been
entered lately here In Norwood. and the
thieves have escaped, yet we do not say
that 1t Is the fault of the police depart
ment Chief Bodeker and his men are do
ing everything In their power to guard
the outlying districts. The fault does not
lie with them, but rather with those who
are above him. Despite the fact that there
are only four scouts to protect tic homes
from Fifth street to Thirtcth street, and
from Fourth avenue to Twelfth avenue,
1t seems to be the intention OF the COM
missioners to still further cut the police
force. To me- IS well as to those with
whom have talked. IT seems folly. They
call 1t economy. yet where they rave .
dollar or two by the cutting OF two men
OFF the force, the public In their homes are
| nightly losing twice that much, because
they have not the protecticn for which
they pay. 1t is an injustice to Cisief Bod
eler, the police department and the citi-
zens themselves"
Last night when burglars entered ths
home of Mrs. t. j. Keith at 1925 Sixth
avenue, and stole suit of cloths and
other articles. when the call was turned In
for a policeman to come to her house it
was 20 minutes before patrolman APP
peared. Two scouts police this district.
about 20 square blocks, and at the time of
the call they We're on the corner of Eighth
street and Eighth avenue. Mr.. Keith,
whose house has been entered several
times during July, said:
ut Ia u pitiable state OF affairs when
the people Of Birmingham cannot obtain
adequate police protection for themselves
and their goods. The citizens of Bir-
mingham pay for this protection but the
amount that they get makes It a Joke. l
do not think that Chief Bodeker and his
force can be blamed. II is the III judS.
ment Of those who are trying 10 econo-
inlze by throwing the entire suburban dis
trict open 10 the mercy OF thieves, thugs
and criminals of all Sorts"
There Is a movement on foot among the
citizens of the South Highlands and the
Northsde 10 start a petition asking for
adequate police protection.
