Weather and Christina, shopp,ns.

One of the remarkable crowds of the season was on the streets of Montgom- cry yesterday. Not that the crowd was especially large. for 1t was not. But 1t was a remarkably crowd for such dirty day as yesterday. It was good trade day for Christmas season, notwithstanding the nature of the weather which was among the most disagreeabie of th.; entire year.
 The Christmas shoppers refused lou- ger to be quarantined at home, by the bad weather. For three days they had been kept In doors by wind. rain and mud. They came- out yesterday in spite of the wind. the rain and the mud. As rainy and as gusty as was the weather the streets of the business district were crowded at certain hours
 It was noticeable. too, that there were many out of town buyers in the crowd. The wise Christmas shopper is making early selections so far as the weather will permit. The present Christmas season is expected to be busy one because of the general pros perity and the various Christmas goods will be picked over before the two CT three days in advance of Christmas and on which there is usually such a general rush of buyers.

California Protests Against Con-
 aumptfyea,

The Health Promotion Club of Los Angeles. California. is making a wig orous protest against the immigration of consumption to that State. The Club sets out in a letter what they state as tho plain facts concerning with the hope of speedy recovery. As rule 1t simply hastens their death to locate here. Arizona or Mexico Is far better. but a small per cent of consumptives are cured by change of climate after the disease has strong grip upon the patient. Hundreds of people sell their homes and come here to secure work and regain their health. and are sadly disappointed, as the change Is very expensive and the ma jority soon find themselves without home, money. health. or surrounded by their friends.

 There is a danger that this magnap- imous course on the part of the United States may encourage the more back ward Latin- American governments in the,r disregard for the rights of Amer jeans. when in point of fact they need no encouragement at all to go as far as they dare in that direction at all times. be found to be by no means weak and if any of the Central or South Ameri- can republics should presume too far on the generosity of the United States they are liable to be brought up with a round turn.

Credit or Discredit.

Whatever is done in the present Con- gress and also what Is not done can be placed to the credit of the Republican Party. In the Senate the Republicans have a majority of twenty-six and In the House they have 114 majority. It will be seen that the Republicans can accomplish results if they desire to leg islate for the benefit of the people. but 1t is our opinion that they will do noth- Ing of benefit to the common masses of the people.

It sounds something like a joke

It sounds something like joke to read that two California Indians are going to New York as missionaries" but we are not so sure that there is anything incongruous about it if they retain their ancient ideas on some sub- jects. The Indians of old were truth. ful and honest in all their dealings. They didn't have to lock their doors against each other and didn't have to give bonds to perform what they promised. If certain New York fnan- elers and politicians can be taught these two virtues 1t would have a salu- tary and eievating effect.

The New York meeting recognized the fitness of Governor Jelks and his sincerity in the cause and made him a Vice-President of the organization. We confidently pre- dict that good will result. and that some plan will become apparent by which we may be relieved from the crisis through which we are passing almost unconsciously.
