Now we must give him every reasohable and just privilege he asks for. and we will see that he will make good and welfare of the city in the next few years. know what am talking about by personal observation and some knowledge of modern ma chinery, that the plants Mir.

 MT. West assures the public that all the machinery he will put in there will be the most improved and modern that
 money can buy and that he will do everything in his power to minimize and do away with the little trouble some and unpleasant features in some degree natural to all manufacturing enterprises, and the best guarantee that he will keep his word, is the fact that he Is going to live right by the

 must be found for all such machinery as this. and the proposed location is really in the business district. The agitation of the trouble and annoyance 1t will bring is all a bugaboo, and finds origin in the brains of those who are not keeping pace with the steady march of progress and growth which has been with Montgomery now for the past few years and which has come to stay.
 There must not be any obstacle thrown in the way of such citizens as MT. West, whose every thought and action and daily life is to build up and do great things for the city and all such mutterings should melt away as the snow flakes before the sun, and the modern public spirit should say to him: GO forward and we will hold up your hands in every undertaking that will bring modern ways and methods and place our cfey up to the standard. and keep up with the ad- vanced and progressive age."
 If there Is to be word against the improvement spoken of, 1t has not taken decided shape, and it is to be hoped that the sober second thought will preclude it, for 1t must be seen that with the promises made by MT. West tand his word is his bond). there will be no real annoyance, but the value of property in that locality will be really and decidedly enhanced thereby. The privilege he asks must be granted if Montgomery keeps up to her professions in inviting small in- dustries, and to encourage thrift and enterprise in any and whatever req sonable form they may present them selves.
