Stock Market

New York, December ?1.-The course
OF the stock market was largely in the
dealings in Lehigh Valley and Read.
ing In the case of the former II had
been generally believed that some ac-
lion on the dividend would be taken.
when IL was announced that Lehigh
valley common was placed on a 10
per cent. dividend basis The news
was followed by an advance In the
stock to $50 III a full point below
its high price OF the previous day. This
high Valley. In the broad sense the
market was irregular. Business was in
tighter volume than on the two pre-
ceding days, aud while the demand
for bonds was again broad. these
issues showed less strength, numerous
rccessions from the high prices of yes
terday being recorded. Apropos of the
bond market il is understood that the
city is now negotiating with leading
banking interests preliminary to the
issuance of S50.000,000 of municipal
bonds carly in the coming year. II is
declared with some authority that the
new issue will he on l-2 per cent
basis. IL per cent. higher than the
last city issue.
The days news embraced a variety
OF events and incidents bearing favor
ably or otherwise on prices. The acute
situation between the Western locomo-
tive engineers and the three-scoro
railroads directly concerned was fol-
lowed to-day by intimations that

ALABAMA's RETURNING SANITY.

Alabama's primary has done more
than give setback to statewide
prohibition. 1t has called halt
on the anti-corporation folly which
has ragged there, as well as in some
of the southern states and in few
of those of the west in recent
years. The man who has carried
the state for the democratic nomi-
nation for Governor, Emmett O'Neal,
is local option advocate. He has
beaten Mallory, the
statewide liquor exclusionisr.
O'Neal stands also for fair treat
ment for the railways and other
corporations.
Nine states have statewide pro-
hibition. Three of these-Maine,
Kansas and North Dakota-are
northern states. The others-North
Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Mis-
sissippi, Tennessee and Oklahoma
are southern states. Alabama is
one of the states which became
dry on January 1, 1909. After
an experience of little over a year
that state has turned against the
exclusionists, and intends to let
the counties and the big towns
deal with the liquor issue indie
pendently. In the coming election
public sentiment is expected to ex-
press itself concretely on this ques-
ton, with the result that the old
sane method Of home rule for the
various communities in the state
will be adopted anew. 1t is be-
'lieved that Mississippi and North
Carolina, both of which also be-
gan the statewide experiment at
the beginning of 1909, will return
ito local option at an early day. In
Tennessee, which shut out the Ii
quor traffic, in theory, on July i,
1909, the experiment is likewise a
failure.
The most important result of the
Alabama primary, however, is the
defeat of the general scheme of ia
naticism and prescription. for which
Governor Conner has stood At the
head of the demagogues of his
state, Conner has hampered the big
corporations there, has inflicted mil
lions of dollars of damage on the
people of the state, and has given
aid and comfort to the agitators
land fanatics who have had free
hand in running the affairs of sew
|eral of the southern commonwealths
in recent times. The issue OF lib
eralism and sanity has gone SO far
in Alabama that it enters into the
primaries for the selection OF all
|sorts of officials, from members OF
the legislature up to members OF
the senate and house of represen-
tatives. Apparently, the liberals
are making a clean sweep OF the
state. The setback for prohibition
| in Alabama, which has tried that
policy, ought to have a good dea
of influence in Missouri, which ha'
not tried it, but in which there L
a movement in it's favor.-St. Loui

Jewish synsaoauss and Population

In 1905 there were, according to the
census, 1869 Jewish congregations in
this country. Each of these may be
said to have an average membership of
$50 persons, according to the bulletin.
In other words, less than 800, 600 Jewish
mem ome and children were connect
ed with Jewish congregations.
But in 1908 1t may be conseryatively
estimated that there were certainly nc
less than 1000, 900 Jews in this country.
and that more probably there were 2
000, 000. says the American Hebrew.
What religious connection had these
hundreds of thousands of Jews who
were connected with no congregation
1t would appear that one half, If not
more. of the Jews of this country have
been lost hold of by the synagogue.
Now. the figures may not be so large
as these indicate. There are more than
1850 Jewish congregations, but there
are very few more apparently. A great
many orthordox also worship in the
observation of the statistical inquirer.
Nevertheless these figures indicate fairly
that the synagogue is not holding Jews
