WALDROP'S PLAN
 MAY BE ADOPTED
May Put Common Carries of the City
 Under Guarantee B0nd-Aimed at Taxicab Companies

Through agitation started by Joe Waldrop justice of the peace at North Birmingham, 1t is probable an ordi- nance will be passed by the city com- mission putting every common carrier in the city under a guarantee bond to be forfeited in case of accidents. The ordinance is intended to apply espec- ially to f. sicab companies.
 MT Waidrop himself was run over and permanently injured according to his statements, last January by a chauffeur for local taxicab company. When he tried to recover damages from the company he claims he found it was defunct and not worth a penny. He has brought his complaint to the city commissioners and they have prom ised to investigate, having already re- ferred the matter to City Attorney Boyd for tentative draft of an ordi- nance.
 It is claimed that there are similar ordinances in other cities. It is als } claimed that there are numerous taxi cab companies in the city which em- ploy irresponsible men to handle their cars, but if one of their cars should injure citizen the taxicab company would have nothing from which dam ages could be secured.

CAPT. FRANK WHITE

SenatOr-Elect Gives Reasons for Supporting Ex-Gov-
 ernOr for denomination

Frank S. White. senator-elect favors the election of B. B. Conner. In this connection, after having said that he would in all probability take the stump for MT. Conner, Captain White said
 Yes l am for Mir. Conner for the reason that MT. Conner was outspoken and earnest in his support for me in my late race for the Senate. I am for MT Conner because his views on po- litical subjects, in the main, accord with mine. We possess. in common, the view that our business men and farm CTS will be more prosperous, and that better citizenship will be developed, l by the people controlling the affairs of | the state themselves, rather than sur rendering them to selfish interests out I side of the state.
 He has shown his friendship for the masses by obtaining for the common schools, during his late administration.

He also showed his friendship for Confederate veterans by securing for them, during l his administration. more money for pensions than had ever been obtained | in any previous administration.

MITCHELL STATES
 COMER WAS RIGHT
Says Mistake Is Made in Attacking Him for Action During Miners
 Strike in 1908

R. A Mitchell of Gadsden, one of the
 best known men of the state. congratu- lates The Herald on its editorial of Sunday in which the effort of follow CTS of Charles Henderson to attack B. B. Conner on the ground that he took drastic action during the miners strike of 1908 Is rebuked.
 ''I would uphold any man-Comer or any other citizen-who put an end to a period of assault and murder. When striking miners fire into trains, the limit has been reached. Mir. Conner as governor did right to put an end to such villainy. Had he done otherwise, we should have impeached him. This was a statement of MT Mitchell. Continuing. he said
 q desire to congratulate The Age Herald In it's editorial, it declared that Henderson followers were pursuing an ill-advised course when they endeav- ored to appeal to certain people on the
 ground that Conner cut down the tents of the miners. Suppose he had not. What then would have followed? This is very pertinent and very important when it is remembered that another strike of miners might occur at any date. What would MT. Henderson have done under like circumstances? The people of the Birmingham district should answer.
 q would applaud any man who took such a great stand in such a trying
 emergency. l am for Conner. I think ! that the state of Alabama needs Conner. we have had too much of Milton H. smith and Charles Lewis. We can run | the state without assistance from other commonwealths. The time has come
 when Alabamians must govern Alabam- | ians. We have seen the consequences 1 of a surrender to the railroads and the Consequences of having surrendered to the liquor boss.
 MT. Conner Is the only man who can restore conditions I favor his elec- | tion My county, Etowah, will give i him fine majority. Other counties oi north Alabama will do as well. We must govern ourselves"

zUEBL|N LECTURES
 AT INCH SCHOOL Speaks on ThOreau in After noon and Sex and
 Equality" at Night

Charles Zueblin, the publicist and lec- turer, who is delivering a series of l2 lectures at the Central High school un- der the auspices of the board of educa- ton, yesterday spoke to two large audi enees. At 3:S0 o'clock his subject was "Thoreau Pegan and Anarchist and at S:3O Sex Equality"
 This afternoon he will lecture on Lowell, Publicist and Humanist' and tonight on "Economic Justice"
 Tn speaking on Thoreau MT. Zueblin said among other things:
 "Thoreau was child of nature among men, but felt no need of men or human institutions. His independence was ex- travagant and even injurious. AS Lowell said of him: Thoreaus experiment act ually presupposed all that complicated civilization which 1t theoretically abjured He squatted on another mans land; he borrows an .ax; his boards, his nails, hls bricks, his mortar, his books. his lamp, his fish hooks, his blow, his hoe, all turn states evidence against him as an az complice in the sin of that artificial civili- zation which rendered it possible that such person as Henry D. Thoreau should exist at all. Nevertheless Thoreau drew very genuine democracy from nature. He shared natures impartiality. To him natures chief law was freedom. He plung- ed into the anti-slavery movement as the man might who was so contemptuouf of the human race that the best would seem little superior to the most inferior At a time when all responsibility fin the north dscountenanced the few abolition ists, Thoreau's attitude was uncompro- missing. Lacking the fetish of property, he had no qualems about the abolition of slavery.
 '"rhoreau found the whole world epitom- ized in Concord, and led a life of con tentment there, with rare journeys and with such local self-satisfaction that he felt no responsibility to society or the state He treated all men alike. He was genuine man and devoted friend but poor citizen and an intellectual dem- ocrat."

AD CLUB LUNCHEON
 IS A JOLLY AFFAIR AT NEWSPAPER CLUB
Anvil ChOruses Fail to Ma terialize-Plans Made to Raise Funds for the To-
 rOntO Convention

The Ad club luncheon at the press club at l o'clock yesterday afternoon was a scene of good fellowship and everyone present seemed to be in a most excellent humor. The programme included among other things two separate anvil chor- the other by President Sparrow. MT Earle was scheduled to jump on Oster Bros advertising, but was unable to at tend the luncheon.
 President Sparrow was scheduled to lead an onslaught on Oscar c. Turner, Harry Jcnes B. B. Burton, John C. Henley, J +. Shelby and Sidney Lazarus. He said that he would pass up Oscar Turner as he was too large for one man to roast Mr. Sparrow said he would not roast Mir Burton because he was one of his cus- toners. He refused to roast Mir. Lazarus because he was a possible customer. Mir Shelby and Mir. Henley were passed be- cause they were not present and finally the eliminating process removed all but Harry Jones. Anybody that would att tempt to roast such a shy, sweet, retir- ing and modest thing as MT. Jones de- serves no better fate than hanging" de- elared MT. Sparrow.
 Prefers Roast to Speech
 Instead of the grilling he was to re- ceive MT. Jones was called upon to make a speech. He demurred preferring to re- celve the roasting, but the calls became irsistent and he responded in a happy style. Oscar c. Turner was called upon

May Want to Sell Tickets

Harry Jones immediately secured the floor, put the motion and parenthetically added that he would pledge himself to sell 100 of the chances. The motion was car ried by acclaim and Oscar Turner fol- lowed Mir. Jones by saying he would sell 100 tickets, or eat what he failed to dis pose of.
 The pledges then became general, and it seemed as though the entire club wanted to pledge itself to sell 100 tickets each. Those pledging to sell 100 tickets in addition to MT. Jones and MT. Turner were Philip Oster, Jerome K. Stern. .l. D. Rosenberger, F. J. Holberg, J. H. Tin der. Joe Saks. H. D. Cullen, Oliver Cox. Hugh Hill, John Anderson, J. H. Edmund son. Herbert Baum and Robert w. Ew- ing The l.. Adler Bros. Clothing coni- pany of Rochester through a represen- tative at the lunch, immediately placed an order for 50 of the chances.
 It was suggested by Oscar c. Turner that silver loving cup be presented to the member of the club selling the most chances on the automobile, but this sag- gestion was rejected by several members simultaneously, all of whom thought a season baseball pass would be much more appropriate Harry Jones shouted across the room at Mir Turner: All right. Oscar; we'll both win that pass, and President Sparrow adjourned the meeting.

 Between courses Vice President Ro- senberger of the club suggested that each member of the company rise and introduce himself and the series of in- troductions began with MT Turner. When it reached President Sparrow he arose from his chair, struck a pose in serio- comic imitation of Napoleon at E,lba and announced, 'T am John Spar row, the esteemed and efficient pres ident of the Birmingham Ad club" Ap plause followed and the introductions. Father Reilly made the hit of the day by introducing himself as "one who saves you from being roasted" and the applause that followed his introduction of himself was loud and prolonged.
 President Sparrow called for the re- port of the Onto Toronto committee and H. D. Cullen for the committee, said that nothing had been definitely de- cided a to the best method of secur- ing funds. He enumerated several plans that had been suggested to the committee, none of which met with the entire approval of them all.
 MT. Cullen asked that every member of the Ad club offer suggestions to the committee, in order that they could decide upon a method of securing a sufficient amount to send delegates to the national convention of ad clubs to be held in June at Toronto.
 Many suggesuons instantly were forthcoming, but Hugh Hill struck | popular chord when he proposed that the Ad club buy an automobile and raffle it at so much per chance The pros and cons of this suggestion were discussed by several members. and al the suggestion of Mir. Cullen President Sparrow sgnified that he would enter tain motion for the club to purchase an automobile and raffle it for the pur- pose of securing funds to send dele gates to the national convention.
