The Bears On Top, as Usual. and Down She
Goes-Not Much Merry Christmas for the
Bulls.
Especial Telegram To the Globe
NEW York, Dec. 24.-The bears had it
all their own way today. a few stocks
maintained semblance Of strength for
time, but before the exchange closed the
early improvement had vanished and the
market presented decidedly dilapidated
appearance. Free selling of Pullman con-
tinued. The Gould properties seemed to
be allowed to taAe care of themselves, and
Missouri Pacific seemed to have hard
time of it, selling below 81 without raj
ly. Texas Pacific was about the weakest
among the light weights. Cen
trail & Hudson was the most
feeble of the Vanderbilts. The fact that
the West Shore opens for business in few
days leads many TO believe that the days
per cent. dividends on the former are
number. The bidding was quite feverish
at the last. Pullman bid to 1124 and
there were no orders from any quarter for
stock
The pressure was too much for the coal
ers and they went with the rest, while
Western Tnion Telegraph touched the low
est point reached since The bad break last
August. 1t would seem almost like piling
on the agony to wish the bulls merry
Christmas in the face of So Oh state of
things. Still there ars probably bears
sufficiently brazeR to do it without even
cracking smile.

AProtess aoas,sst Naaqsng Counties.

a Protest against Ncmtng Countess.
Editor of the Globe:
1 was glad to see the GLOBE enter lis
protest against the custom our territorial
nicompoops have fallen into of conferripe
| the name of every jackanapes who hap
pens to occupy prominent local position
upon the newly created counties of the
territory. Time was when in laying the
foundation of new counties the Legislature
conferred honor upon themselves by con-
ferring the names Of the leading men of
the nation upon the various counties
created.
Asst stands day, Dakota has no JEFF
ferson county, but it has La Moure
And who is La Moure? A French canuck
who can barely write his own name, and
ID only prominent III territorial
affairs as a shrewd Judge
of the relative merits of q bob-tail fash
and three Of kind.
We have No franklin county,. but we
have Williams, and who is Williams !?
The Lord only knows, and 1t is question
able if he will ever tell.
We have no Washington county, but we
have an Emmons. And who is Emmons
A half-horse half alligator who mas divided
his time for tine last few years about
equally between olerking on stern-wheel
steamboat and peddling bad whisky to the
virtuous denizens of the upper Missouri
country.
We have no Webster county, but
we have a Martin. And
who in earth is Martin :?
Black Hills horse doctor who retired
from practice because of the prevalence of
mnles in cur mining locality, and blunder-
ed into the legislature.
We have no Adams county, but we have
a Kingsbury, and Kingsbury, who is he any
how? A fellow down III southern Dakota
who has been repeatedly elected to the
legislative elerkship to save Yankton the
expense of supporting him.
And so we have Wells, Dickey, a
Hand, Mclean, a Moody, (no Sankey),
a Hughes, Barnes, Mercer, and so on
nd nanseDa;; not one of them representing
the personality of half grown
man. There is something in
name, and it is to be hoped that if the
happy era ever dawns when something
like intellect and self-respect shall be
represented in our territorial legislature
that these old settler names which dis
grace GU: commonwealth will be changed
for cognomens which will stand for some
thing. DAKOTA.

structure was illuminated with electric
lights from the top Of the splre to It's

parent blocks Of ice with a brilliancy
which made the unique building glitter
az though thousand brilliants were
flashing from It's sides. The beauty OF
the scene was rather enhanced than
marred by the feather flakes of snow
which were silently falling, and, to
add to the attraction and bring the
days sports TO a grand conclusion,
about / 800 members of the snow-shoe
clubs, dressed in unique and grotesque
costumes, appeared on the scene with
flaming torches. and after passing the
palace, started on a tramp through the
snowstorm over the mountains. Ii Is
admitted by all that this was the most
magnificent spectacle ever witnessed
in Montreal. The principal feature of
