Cror. Iniustice to Montgomery.

New York Sun.
 If the City Council of the Alabama town of Montgomery or of any other town should refuse to appropriate tertaining the President when he visits the place on the ground that in prin- ciple public money ought not to be spent for such a purpose. the refusal to make the appropriation would be re- spectable. But when the refusal is based on mere objection to the person. ality of the President 1t is not merely
 Moreover, 1t Is all the more discred- itable when. as in the case of Mont gomery, the Council had invited the President to visit their town.

Reason for Peace Terms.

'The real reason,s said a distinguish- etiSen of Montgomery. who was an oI- ncer ot the Confederate army, why Ja- pan finally accepted the peace terms wlth Russia has been made public at !ast and although l was sympathlzer Wlth the Mikados country the reason ss satistacfory fo me.
 Japan did not have the money to continue a war indefinitely. The peo- pie had been taxed to the limit, credit was about to be exhausted and the Elm peror. who Is a wise and conservative ruler found that a continuation of the war meant ruin to his country. Az though the army and navy of Japan won a victory in every battle that was fought. Russia could have continued the war indefinitely and would have bankrupted Japan ultimately.
 The war was costing Japan about Sl,000.000 a day which is a tremendous strain on any government, especially on a small country like Japan. To successfully conduct armies and navies money must not be counted. It must be freely spent The government nf Japan found that a check must be put on this outgo. Her soldiers and sailors had made the wrld marvel at their heroism and they acceded to peace with honor and glory ..
 'I would have been more pleased IT Russia had been forced to her knees but Japan didn't have the money to do

 Our position exactly as regards the Republican party in Virginia, its fu- ture and its mission. We stand for Democratic policies and principles: We should deeply regret to see the State fall under Republican rule, but as we have more than once indicated repu- table, vigorous. aggressive minority

Congressman Bankhead in recent interview said: Tt sounds rather funny to discuss opening another cam paign for Congress in the Sixth District when I have not even been sworn in yet for the term to which l was last elected" All of which is very true. The present term of Congressman who were elected in November 1904, began March 4th 1905 and unless called in extra session they will not meet until the first Monday in December. The law ought to be changed, so that elec- tions will be nearer meeting time. In one respect at least Congressnen have no right to complain. They can draw their pay monthly from the beginning of the term no matter whether they have been sworn in or not.
