uiar picnic grounds where they spent
the time in the usual way (you know

cried aloud for stronger food than mis-
lleloe kisses and yum-yum, when the
hres were lighted, the coffee and tea
wal made, and the feast spread amid
the Wlntergrcen berries, and it goes
without saying that the party gave the
spread their undivided attention for
SOME time CT longer. After the dinner

Let Ii Ese Superior.

y gentleman who lives in Chicago,
but who is Il constant reader of the
TINES, and who is also deeply interest
ed III Superior although he has not a
dollar invested here, in a letter to us
relating to private business matter,
received this week, says this touching
our young and growing city:
" am glad to see your city forging
ahead i'll sure and substantial way.
hope your city charter will take in
w est superior" and blot that name
out OF eNlstance. 1t sounds bad from
this distance. 1t always stands for the
tai end of some large city, like East
st. Louis, etc. SUPERIOR, clear cut
and alone, stands for strength and no
bility."
And this gentleman expresses the
verdict of nine-tenthS of all who give
the matter an honest thought. Let
the charter, when we get one, create
the city of Superior, and our divisions
and subdivisions be known only as
wards, and all other expectations be
buried out of hearing.

Christmas aI the Swedish Church.

In the old country the Swedish peo-
pie make much of Christmas time, and
many of their forms are adhered TO III
this country. One of their never omit
ted forms is early morning services,
and the Rev. A. +. Monten, the pastor
in charge of the Swedish Evangelical
Church i'll Superior, held this service
here this season. The services began
at $50 a. M, yet the church was crowd
ed to its utmost capacity, extra seats
being provided for the occasion. The
church was beautifully decorated and
the Christmas tree shown respondent
when it seemed ablaze with light.
On the evening of the Goth, the house
was again filled With IL happy throng,
this being the occasion when the sun
day School children came i'll for their
more particular share of the joys of the
occasion. The tree was again brilliant
ly lit up, aud when the presents were
distributed no child WAS forgotten.
Though the school has been organ
teen members, all of whom with two
exceptions, are taught in the Swedish
language. The school has been under
the able management of Mr.. August
Lundquist and wife, assisted by Miss
Christin Larson, with Miss Paulin
Lundquist as organist.
y report of the school made on this
occasion, showed that all expenses, in
Guiding books, papers, the presents for
the children, etc, had been paid and
still there was money in the treasury.
The program for the evening was eX
cellent, and was carried out without Il
hitch.
The annual business meeting of this
church was held last Wednesday, the
2d inst. The report of the pastor, Mr..
Monten, showed an increase i'll mem
bership and attendance, and that the
church was in healthy condition spir
itually.
The treasurer's report showed the
pastors salary paid in advance and all
other bills receipted III full, with mon
ey in the treasury, which makes the
church as healthy financially as it is
spiritually. Its officers consist of three
deacons and three trustees, and the
election to fill these places resulted as
follows: Messrs. August LundquiSt,
John c. Peterson, and G. j. Nelson, to
be deacons, and Messrs. Charles Solder
land, Lars Lenroot and j. f. Olson as
trustees. And it would not be out of
place to add right here, that since the
church has been organized under the
present administration, Miss ChriStin
Larson has been and is still, the volun-
teer organist for the church, for which
generous service she has the thanks of
pastor, membership and congregation.
And the Rev. gentleman who presides
over this church is entitled to much
credit for the able manner III which he
has governed it and brought it such an
enyiable standing in our city.

WITHOUT venturing to decide which
plan is the more desirable, we think
there is no longer any doubt in any i'm
partial mind as to the need of the pro
posed separation. There can be no i'm
provement i'll our municipal govern
ment, no relief from the eXtravagant
and OftentimeS corrupt expenditures
which make life in our cities so enor-
mouSly expensive, until we bring the
mass of the voters to the comprchen-
sion Of two points: first, that ii is play
ing into the hands of the men who make
their living out of politics to allow
National and State political consider
alton to enter into the choice of mum
icipal officers; secondly, that the burd-
Ell of taxation is not borne by the rich
alone. but largely by the poor. The vot-
ers must think when they are deciding
how they Will vote, not as to VIII at the
