profits are small. He is at the mercy
of both, and the inducements to re-
main in the business are not what they
were in the good old days. This may
not mean that there will be decrease
in the aggregate of cattle shipped to
the large butchering centers. Large
concerns will still continue in the
business and individual farmers NAV
raise few head. There are yet thou
sands of acres of rocky, broken land
that will never be suited to agricul.
ture, and here cattle will find their
range for years. People will continue
to demand meat and it will be sup

Christmas in FORSYTH


While the Christmas holidays have
not been the gayest of the season in a
social way, there has been prevail
ing spirit of happiness, and on every
hand evidence of prosperity that, in the
main marks the ''merry' Christmas.
Santa Claus was exceptionally busy
as the day was observed in the old
fashioned festive way in the majority
of homes in Forsyth. Nothing has been
found to take the place of the Christ
mas tree and in almost every home the
little ones were delighted with tree.
The Christmas tree given at the
Methodist church on Saturday evening
was we'll attended, both the main body
and the yestry of the church were
packed. Every child present received
gift and very interesting Christ
mas progrom was carried out. On
Saturday afternoon number of the,
children of the Episcopal Sunday
school assembled. in the Odd Fellows
hall and spent pleasant. time. in
playing Christmas games. ~4,
Mr.. and Mrs. Alexander gave a, de-,
lightful little Christmas party Christ
mas eve. Mr.. and Mrs. Crimmins and
daughter, DR.. and Mrs Reber and
daughters, Mr. and Mrs. Mulligan,
Mrs Stickley and Mr.. Carney were
the guests. After a we'll loaded Christ
mas tree had been relieved Of it's bur-
den the evening was spent in games.
On Sunday Christmas dinner was
given.
The following families had Christ
mas trees for their little ones: Messers
and Mesdames Guy, Anderson, Ferris,
LeVene, Eckels, Leazott, Squire,
Waddell and Davis.
The family of H. r. Marcyes cele-
brated with a Christmas tree and
made merry with names and music.
The family of Mrs. Jennie Lane,
with the exception of Miss Luella, spent
Christmas at home and received their
gifts from the tree.
Sunday was cold, blustry day and
the Christmas warmth and cheer on
this account was 'doubly attractive.
Mr.. and Mrs. Westaby entertain
ed a number of friends at dinner on
Christmas day.
Mrs. ]. E. Choisser gave dinner
entertaining her mothor and brother
from Hathaway, and Mrs. E. Kane
and daughter. s.@
A family reunion was held at the
ranch home of VIM. Choisser, sr.
So far as we have been able to learn
not single "Scrooge" is living in
Forsyth, and we trust there were no
''Ruggles families" who were obliged
to draw entirely OH their imagination
for their Christmas banquet. On every
hand we hear reports of the good, old
fashioned Christmas, whose approach
we signal with delight and the depart
ure of which, if observed in honor of
His birth, leaves us with that feeling
of continent that comes from the OBJ
servance of ''In as much as you have
done it unto the least of these, We have
done it unto Me. -

Cattle Industry Declining.

An official of the Northern Pacific
says that the cattle industry along his
line has been falling off during the
past six or eight years with the excep-
tion Of 1908. He attributes it to a
succession Of severe winters, which
has driven many former cattlemen in
to the sheep business.
However correct this reason may be.
it is probable that in many, sections
once regarded as cattle country the
business is far less important than. it
once was. In one way or another large
numbers of cattle will be raised in the
west, but every year the pasturage
will become more circumscribed and
the great herds of cattle, once so COM
mon on the bunchgrass land. will be
comparatively few.
AS the west has settled up the range
has been curtailed in area. There are
still many acres of government land
fit for pasturage, but much of it has
fallen into private hands and in one
way and another it has been so cut up
that it is by no means as easy to get
free pasturage as it was twenty years
ago. Many sections that were once
known only through their shipments
of cattle have witnessed development
along other lines until the cattle bust
ness no longer overshadows all other
industries as it once did.
There is good reason to believe,
moreover, that between the railroads
and the meat trust the cattleman has
been reduced to position where his

Three hundred and fifty children of the sayre Street School of Montgomery arose from their desk seats at s:25 o'clock yesterday morning.
 Forming in column of twos, the chill dren, in perfect order, filed out from the school. Tn minute and a half the last of the $50 children were standing in front of the school building watch ing a chimney afre.

Alderman ]. Kirk Jackson again threw vigorous challenge at Chief of Police A. s.

 Arising in support of the amendment, which In short requires that warrant be secured when the private residence son intimated that If the convictions of gamblers are decreasing since the adoption of his amendment, tt Ia due to the lack of execution of the law.

 The Chief of Police" he went on, has intimated that Montgomery Is becoming the dumping grounds of gam blers from other cities in the South where crusades are being carried on against them, particularly Birmingham and Atlanta. I say that if the city Is filling daily with vagrants and gam- blers 1t is not because of a defect in the amendment SvhichI offered, but on account of lack of execution of the law.
 Our Chief has demonstrated by what efforts he has made to enforce the amendment that 1t Is effective. have gathered from eity officiais 1.-the figures that prove the ordinance. as 1t the adoption of the amendment the original ordinance had been in oper- ation for eight months. During that time the average percentage of con- amendment which Is about four months old, the percentage has been seventy nine, or only three less.
 After examining the last report of the Attorney-Generai. find that the average percentage of convictions for gambling during the two years preced- ing was sixty-eight. These were se- cured under the vagrancy statute. I have also the views of several Circuit Solicitors in the matter of entering rooms fitted up with a bed and other furniture In order for the owners to use it as a gambling place. They all agree that this cannot evade the law under glise of being a residence, and | If such places are of public nature to which persons resort to gamble they | can be entered by the police and arr rests made.
 T desire to repeat, with all empha- sis, that the amendment Is suficient to run gamblers out of Montgomery If lit is executed"
 The report of the Chief was received land filed.
 Later Alderman Roemer introduced a resolution to re-enact the ordinance as 1t was-bsfore the Jackson amend ment was added and it was referred to the Committee on Judiciary.
