Don't Be Afraid of Your Gas When It Pops-It's Hot Air 'Nuthin' to 1t
By JEFF BAILEY

If you hear a sputtering, sizzling sound that ends with a bang-when you go light your gas--dont LIamc the city commission, for they are on the job. They have the gas test working all day now-and three times-just as regular as you have to light the old food cooker they are laying for the Birmingham Railway, Light and Power company with the official dope that may ncan more and more litigation in order that you may get your moneys worth. and at the same time have biscuits all nice md brown on the bottom as well as the roof.
 Never mind if your wife makes you get out of the hay and light thc Eas-for she Is more than ant to he nfraid of it-especiaIIy when all that hot air oozes through the pipes. Just f0oiin' you into believing you are going to get light in the min ute; but all of a sudden, bfnp;o,

of the evils complained of in a minor degree, but I defy and challenge any intelligent man to present evidences that will show Birmingham to be less moral, clean, decent, respectable and worthy of consideration than any other city between the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. Now, in view of the extensive publicity that has been given to this matter. and the great notoriety of same spread abroad throughout the land, would it not be much more creditabie to the 100 gentlemen who are to con stitute themselves committee Of re- form. to call together the people of Bir- mingham in a great mass meeting ana denounce the islander and outrageous ban which has already done so much to hurt and disgrace our fair city? Is 1t not the duty of our lawfully constituted commissioners as guardians and pro- tectors of Birmingham to awake and break their silence and plead with the press of Birmingham to cease giving publicity to the notorious scandal. and take such other action as may be neces- sary to refute the libel and undo the mischief that Is being done. especially by many of our purblind and misled citizens who now vainly imagine that they are rendering some kind of patri- otic duty in helping give credence to the islander, at least by implication, through lending their names and unit ing their efforts In the great ill-o'-the- wisp chase, trying to run down, catch and expose the few poor human dere- licts, black and white, who may be shel- tering in the dark alleys, behind the shadows of slag piles, or skirmishing around through the bushes beyond Red mountain? I really feel that every poor. misguided man who has participated in the unintentional exploitation of this damnable outrage against Birmingham by giving credence and support to the damnabIe, disgracefu1 hullabaloo should close his mouth and blush with shame for whatever he may have said or done. For I believe I am prepared to prove that the whole dirty matter originated from disgruntled former official in the sanitary service of this city. that the whole internal outrage emanated wholly from his malicious, revengeful and self
 sh disposition to injure and hurt our great city.
 As for myself, would scorn to be dirty bird of fable, which befouls it's own nest, or to engage in or encourage any kind of movement that would be- slime and cast odiuIn upon the town In which I live.
 Please, MT. Editor, give this space in your columns. for I am so filled from head to foot with deep disgust that l must have 8 vent or surely burst.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York, November 25.-The market opened higher this na0rning with some Liverpool buying orders in the near deliveries and~1he usual speculative de- mand fropa1ocal traders in anticipation of a )s6ntinuation of foreign buying. However. this demand was soon supp rp1ied by southern hedge selling and the advance did not go very far. The se- curities market was weak all day and this finally brought some local liquida- tion in our market, whereupon prices promptly declined. We are glad to see gradual liquidation rom the south. be- cause, as we have pointed out before such liquidation on strong markets is the real solution of the problem of re- adjustment to peace conditions. The dry goods market continues much un- settled and this has had a marked eff feet upon the demand from the domes- tic trade, while the market here closed at the bottom 1t could not be called weak and the trade buying seemed to be slightly larger in the afternoon.- Hubbard Bros. & Go
