THE ROAD FIASCO.

There was a general dissatisfac-
ton last Saturday when the voters
of this road district learned that
no election would be held, and all
asked for what reason, and no one
could answer this question.
1t seems to us that the board
should have shown q little consi-
deration to the people at least by
announcing that the election was
postponed, given up entirely and
give some reason for their action
and not treat them with silence
and leave them in ignorance.
This board has made a fisco of
this road project and the people
seem to have lost all interest in
the road matter.
In view of this failure of hold
ing the election and of the board
IN giving any reason or any ac-
count of their future action if any
is contemplated, we believe the
best thing the people of st. Mar
vile can do is to vote their own
tax, gravel their own streets and
go out in the country as far as
they can in the direction they will
think represent their best interest

At the Bijou

Notwithstanding many other attrac- tions in the city the business last night at the Bijou with Mutt and JeH on the boards was better even than that of last week when all previous records were broken. In Mutt and Jeff's Wedding, the producers of the now famous musical comedy have sur passed all previous efforts, and no of fering heretofore presented of the clever cartoon conception equals this weeks bill. The girls are prettier, the costumes more gorgeous, the comedy more hilarious, and the scenic effects more elaborate than of any former production. The attendance yesterday vas an evidence that the play had pleased the critical Birmin gham audi ence and indications are that capacity houses will be the rule for the week. There will not be a matinee today but for the balance of the week there will he matinees daily. Next week Peg O My Heart" will be the offering.

HEFLIN THREATENS
 INVESTIGATION OF
 COTTON EXCHANGES
tcontiuued from Page one,

Birmingham Announcement to this ef- feet was made by the Secretary of War just as number of Alabama congress- men approached the department to re- peat their old petition.
 It is anticipated that the boys will be home again within two or possibly three weeks It is stated. however, that they will not be mustered out of service, but will be permitted to return home and remain there only until called again to arms
 Every representative from Alabama tel egraphed his constituents the news imme- diateIy after it's dissemination. The or ders of the war department relieved them of their most trying duties. The people at home continuously demanded the re- turn of the boys. and the members, try as they would could never move the war department nor satisfactorily explain their repeated failures.
 At the department it was indicated that the other Alabama units would be or dered home within a relatively short pe- riod-as soon as the troops of General Per shing are entirely off Mexican soil, and prepared to maintain the border against another Villa incursion.
