Room For Hot Argument
 On Sn0w or Not SnoU

In that part of last night when proh- ably more pedestrians are on the street than at any other hour. between 6 and 7 r o'clock. there was a season's hap pening which cansed many to prick up their ears and Ir#$ upward. Some one stammered in excitement. Tt Is snow ing" All in the hearing felt a distinct shock at the words
 Although this startling statemrnf passed the rounds of many group of people scurrying home after shopping hours, there will always be a few doubting Thomases about this snow proposition. Yet the fact remains that snow fell in the corporate limits of Montgomery last evening and between the honre named. Let the doubting ones bring forth their evidence that 1t was not. For fully a minute distinctly white. glistening flakes of Boreas man. na tumbIed in the midst of amazed pedestrians.
 Now that the debate for the removal of the Court Square Fountain has ceas- ed. room may be found for q settle ment of this subject of snow. If any body is skeptlc about snow actually falling on Dexter Avenue, or Perry Street. either, for that matter. let him canvass the city this morning and ask people who know and saw the thing last night. As Joe Addison's hero said however. much can be said on both sides.

 That Judge wiIney was guilty of oppression and misuse of his powers as judge" in disbarring Attorneys Francis M. Brooks. Cecil Hoicomb, Wnl. I. Rogers, Edwin Fl. Lamme. Harry L. Harts Lorrin Andrews and W. l.. Heen, thereby running them in their stand- ing and reputation In the community, debriving them Of their livelihood, im- poveriBhing them and leaving them, cit- tzens of the United States, in a disl tant country without means of support for themselves. their wives and chii- dren; ;that In defiance of the rules of the United States Supreme Court he made a rule of his own by which no cit- izen of the United States holding a lawyers certificate to practice in the United States court for China, could do so without first passing an examination to be held by Judge Wilhey himself: that the said examination was a mere sham. without any intention other than to disbar and to ruin said attorneys whom he disfavored."

CENSUS BILL AMENDED.

Washington, Feb. Is.--When the House of Representatives today re- stunned consideration of the bill to pro- vide for the thirteenth and subsequent decennial censuses. some opposition developed to the taking of . census Sf the Panama Canal Zone. Guam and Tutuila.
 Mir. Tawney, fin particular. was en- phatic in his protest. He argued that as drawn. the bill provides for the talk ing of q census of all the islands of the Pacific under the Jurisdiction of the United States of which there are nfty-four, and he reminded the House that already the Secretary of the Navy had authority to take such census. He declared that all that possibly could be done would be to secure an emu faeration. The taking Of a census of the Pacific islands and the canal zone. he said, simply meant the piling up of unnecessary expenses.
 After protracted debate the bill was amended limiting the census to the States and Territories of the United States. the District of Columbia and Alaska. Hawaii and Port Arthur.
 The provision that an assistant direc- tor shall be appointed by and with the advice and eonsent of the Senate was stricken out. Minus leaving the appoint ment absolutely wsth the President.
 When, at 4:iT p. m.. the House ad- tourned, this bill was still under con- sideratiop.

The faction of the doubtinE ThoIn- ases will point out to you that the popcorn person was an awfuIly busy man last evening just at tfie time the snow subject was mentioned on the Rialto. They point you to the open air methods of this wizard of the grain. With much warmth they laugh and allege this popcorn person created an optical Illusion that weary and home seeking eyes mistook the bounding bursts of corn for the falling snow,
 Notwithstanding men and women, girls and boys, of vicarious honesty, are to be found amongst the defenders of the first snowfall in Montgomery this winter. the cynics go too far in their guffaws. They taunt their fel- lows and remind thenf of the hour the snow is said to have tumbled, and then say in triumphant voice, 'Remen- Der 1t was before o'clock" As If to say the environment of the open thirst parlors makes it snow just as it con- jures the snakes to peregrinate.
 Ye there Is substance to the claims of the snow adherents and The Ad- vertiser expert is inclined to put him. self on the affirmative side Of the ques- ton. He is sorry, very sorry. the se- riousness of the matter did not appear until too late an hour to telephone the weather man. But he ventures to say that person will be asked many times over today If 1t really showed last night.

HART ON THE NEGRO
HARVARD PROFESSOR TELLS OF
 TRIP TO SOUTH.
Declares that There Ia . National Prob lem in the Treatment of the
 Blacks of the
 Country.

Boston. Feb. 1s.--(special.5 .5--Profes- sor Albert Bushnell Hart. the noted Harvard socioiogist, in an address here today, declared the negro question to be national problem. not sectional one.
 He is led to this conclusion as the result of his investigations on hts re- cent horseback ride through the South from Texas to Virginia, during which he passed through Louisiana. Missis- sippi Alabama, Georgia. North and South Carolina.
 "The North has been blamable in the past for too much zeal in the matter, ' he say& Tt cannot be claimed now that this ss so. for 1t Is contributing too little. While the North disturbed race relations, 1t does not offer much in the way of solution.
 "The South. for It's part, has not dono much. although 1t has had the govern ment Of every State for forty years. At the same time, some kind of set- clement seems to be necessary, and it Is a good symptom that the South. is now willing to share the discussion.'

Henry of Texas, soon after the House met to- day said that If Mir.

 Mir. Henry disavowed any intention to detract from the praise which had been accorded Mir. Cannon, but he said there were several matters that could be enacted into law within the next few days or weeks. If tho Speaker would but respond to the demand of the country and the demand of the Democrats of the House"
 One of these was the employers lia- billty bill, of which he said, "the Presi- dent had urged in his recent pyrotech- meal message" The other was the biiH requiring notice before injunction shall be issued by Federal judges. Z "One of your candidates for, PresI- dent, Secretary Taft. he said, ''has declared in favor of 1t. and the Presi- dent himself has asked Congress to pass it."
 Mir. Henry asserted that if Speaker Cannon wished to reflect the views of miners and te:lsrs of the country. he would aid in passing these measures, and to that end Mir. Henry pledged the solid Democratic vote of the House.
