railroad has made another overture to
the Mississippi railroad commission, look
ing to a compromise of the injunction
suit heard before three federal judges at
Birmingham few days since. Some time
ago the railroad company offered to pay
taxes on the same valuation as pertained
last year-that is SIS, 900 per mile for main
line, but the commission ahd placed the
valuation at $33 000 per mile this year, and
stood by its guns, the court proceedings
at Birmingham being the result Mr..
Markham now authorizes his representa-
tiVes here to make another offer, a bet
ter one than before for the state, but
the commission very promptly rejected
same, preferring to stand or fall on the
decision of the courts.

OWEN PLEASED WITH
LIBRARY WORK HERE
Says Birmingham Offers
Greatest Library Opp0r-
tunity in the South

Montgomery, october 9.-(SpeciaL) )-Tnat
Birmingham offers the greatest library
opportunity in the south today is the opin-
ion of DR.. Thomas M. owen, director OF
the state department of archives and his
tory and head of the state lbrarN eX-
tention work. DR.. owen has just retufned d
from Birmingham, where he conferred
with the library board of that city
DR.. owen was enthusiastic over the
splendid work that has been accomplished
in Birmingham, and believes that pros
poets are very bright for the future
New ordinances adopted in Birnlng-
ham in connection with TIE library are
working wel,' said DR.. Owen, and tue
situation is indeed promising. An extern
sive book campaign will be inaugurated
soon which will include the Birmingham
library and its five branches. Because
of the cosmopolitan population in the
city, Birmingham is making great strides
in literary work. and much enthusiasm
in the work is being evinced.
