The campaign in support of Repre-
sentative Charles B. Littlefield in Maine
was taken up in other letters.
A Cushing letter to Mulhall, June .,
1905, said:
Il guess it is better for you to stay
out of the Central Labor union"
"A number of labor union workers
were engaged in the fight for election
in the union, explained Mulhall, "and
| was taking an active part in seeing
that we got officers elected who were
on our side politically.
"This work was all done from the

The Cushing letter stated further:

The inquiry then shifted to Albany.
The introduction of a bill In the New

which would have placed the burden OF
proof upon the defendant in cases of
injury from negligence was discussed.
"Cushing sent me TO oppose the bill
as something that ought not to pass at

Senator Cummins asked who Mulhall

new vista is created which is one of
remarkable effect. The driveway is
bordered by number of building sites
offered for sale by the Jemison in
terests.
The new roadway is paved with
asphalt and is entirely in keeping with
the permanent improvements made and
maintained in Mountain Terrace BY
connecting with C1ir Road. Mountain
Terrace and the other driveways along
the mountain that also connect with
Highland avenue. the new Glenwood
drive brings to realization a dream fos-
tered by some of the Oldest citizens
of this community. 1t is recalled that
on July /, 1898. the late Maj. i. Y.
Anderson introduced resolution be-
fore the Commercial club favoring a
mountain driveway connecting the
mountain roads. A committee composed
of Major Anderson, the late Gen. Ru-
fus n. Rhodes and Maj w. b. sLeedy
was appointed to take such a scheme
up with the county commissioners.
Without official aid that plan has been
achieved.
The resolution of 1898 follows:
Whereas, ii is essential to any city
having metropolitan ways, to have and
maintain highway on which women
and children of the community can
drive and wheel without having their
| lives impeHled by railroads, both
steam and electric therefore be it
| Resolved, That we earnestly ask the
board of county commissioners to build
and maintain a roadway convenient to
the city, and to keep the same free
| from railroad menace to our citizens.
| Resolved, further, That we recon-
mend as an exceedingly favorable site
for such road to-wit The bench on the
| north side of Red mountain, directly
| below the crest, between the points
known as Walkers gap and Avondale.
A road built on these lines would have
the following advantages:
q. 1t would not be an expensive road
to build and maintain.
"2. 1t would attract the attention of
every stranger visiting our city
| "3. 1t would prove source of health
/ and pleasure to all our citizens as it
would be above all smoke, dust and
dirt and would command a magnifi-
cent view of Jones valley and of the
city of Birmingham.
a. Its construction would more than
recoup the county for the expense, as
1t would bring into market building
sites, territory heretofore neglected,
and thus increase the tax fund
| Resolved further, That committee of
three be appointed by the president of
this club to present this resolution to the
board of county commissioners, and waga
the carrying out of the suggestion herein
made"
At the opening yesterday afternoon Cui-
pepper Exum, president of the city COM
missioners James Weatherly. associate
commissioner, and Judge o. r. Hundley
made short speeches in which they fe-
licitated Robert Cemison, Jr and Hill
Ferguson upon their civic pride in open

tory. The commissioners accepted the
