THE WORK OF THE ALLIANCE.

The Chronicle has never believed
the organization Of the Farmers Alli-
ance would do other than promote
the best interests of the people of the
State. 1t is composed of the most
conservative class Of our citizens-men
of patriotism and devotion to the edu-
cation of the people. Early in the
campaign fears were expressed on ev-
cry side that there would be Conflic.
between the Alliancemen and those out
side the Alliance which would rend
the. party in pieces. Extreme and
radical men in the Alliance and out
side the order acted in such way as to
endanger democratic success but as the
Chronicle predicted, the sober judg-
ment-the second thought of the peo-
ole asserted itself and all differ
ences OF opinions were harmonlzed,
and men of all shades of thought came
together and fought side by side for
Democratic success. -.
The fear that the Alliance would IN
;rre the Democratic party was ground

,;vi,y OF the Alliance has largely ena-

History Of6anta Claus.

The history Of Santa clau-a Gu
rlous mixture Of truth and fable-eoes
tar back into the ancient time. Gen.
turies ago child was born in Asia
Minor who received the name ofNich.
olas. His parents were wealthy and
Of high rank, and desiring to expees
their gratitude to God for the birth OF
their little son, they resolved to edu-
cate him for the Christian priesthood.
The child was sober and thoughtful,
and while yet young both his parents
died and he inherited their great wealth.
He considered the riches sacred trust,
he fed the hungry, he clothed the des-
titute, and performed all kinds ofgood
deeds as secretly as possible. As q
priest he was greatly beloved; as a
bishop he continued his benevolence.
After his death the church canoni.ed
him and he became one OF the greatest
patron saints, being revered as the help
OF the poor. the protector Of the weak,
and as the especial patron saint of. lit
tie children, who were taught to be-
lieve that their good gifts came from
him. St. Nicholas was the name given
him by the monks and this was famil-
iarly changed to Saint Nic'laus, and
finally clipped down to Santa Claus,
who is still represented as retaining
his old habits Of secret benevolence
and coming. down the chimney at
night lac Christmas presents
for childF pleasant fiction it Is
to them, ii cover of which tha,
charming secre ncerning the do.
nors OF gifts IS kep>Aup, though little
eyes and ears and minds arc keen, and
Santa Claus is usually very well known
to them as much more modern per
sonage than old St. Nicholas. But ths
children enjoy the harmless pretence
the mysterious filling Of stockings and
the heavily laden Christmas tree.

About Christmas.

Said Christ to doubling Thomas:
BLESSED are they who having not seen,
yet have believed. For over eighteen
centuries this benediction on faith in
the unseen has fallen on the world;
and the few hundreds, whose eyes be-
held the founder of Christianity, have
grown to as many millions of those of
every nation, kindred and cline on
the earth who have found in the vision
of faith as strong a solaCe as the dis
ciples found in the vision of fact.
December 2sth is the time agreed on
among men to attend and celebrate
the birth of Him who raised this prin-
ciple of trust to the keystone position
in the arch OF His spiritual system. The
spectacle that the globe furnishes to-day
is proof of the power of that principle
So let the bells ring out; let the chimes
reSound; let the organ lead and answer
the melody of pious hearts. From the
altar of church and tine shrine of home,
and the HOLES in every soul, let the
iaising infurnce of reverence and rap
tre proceed. Let the children make
holiday and sing roundelays. Let the
rich and the poor meet together to
hail the Lord who is the Maker of them
all. On earth good will, to men peace,
was the song Of the angels to the shep-
herds. That song is the music of the
spheres. 1t was started when the morn
ing stars sang together and when all
the sons of God shouted for joy, as the
earth sprang from nothing into beauty.
1t is now the song of the Christmas
time, and its strains should fiud echo
alike.in the love and in the laughter
of us all.

And thus this holy day found heavenly
birth.
On earth peace, goodwill to men,
o blessed ChiId-o Babe of Bethlehem.
Ye children dear, draw near, draw near,
And list the tidings doubly dear;
Greet, greet with gladness this glad morn,
For the Babe of bethlehem is born!
The Christ, your Christ, is living near.
Good news, good news, let all the earth
rejoice,
Let all that breathe shout with merry
voice,
Let all ioinin-our Christmas lay:
The King.d Glory lives to-day,
Christ is the King OF Glory; He
Hath made Immortal our mortality
Good news, good newsl o children sweet
Draw near and bow before His feet.
He guards you with brothers care,
So gentle He, so fond, so fair,
Give thanks, give thanks, yechildren dear,
That Christ, your brother-friend, is near;
Rejoice, rejoice; be glad and sing
Make alt the Christmas welkin ring
On this dear day when Christ was born
Make wild with Joy the blessed morn.
o, children dear, draw near, draw near,
. anu llIp your eyes on nlRh,
Your beaming eyes and bright!
Behold the raptured sight!
Draw near with mournfuI cry
Behold the awful sight
Behold Him on the cross OF pain,
Dying that ye might live again
Your sins He bore, He freely died,
bleeding and broken, crucifiedl
He died that We might live again!
He bore your sins, He bore your shame,
In utter agony and pain,
He died that we might live again;
He died for you, for me, for men,
This Star of Bethlehem.
But from the tomb He rose to saveI
He conquered Death, defied the Gravel
He bade adieu to clayey portals,
And gave immortal life to mortals,
And now, within His home above,
He asks each child to share His love;
For He is risen-He is risen
Assembled from the rocky prison;
No reel is broke, no bolt il riven;
Death could not have Him for it's own;
And now, upon the great white throne,
He reigns in majesty in Heaven.
Bow low, xe children, at His feet;
Your friend He is, and oh, how sweet!
Two thousand years ago this morn
The Babe'of Bethlehem was born.
He lived, He suffered, and he died
He cruelty was crucitied;
Before the cross your sins he bore
The bloody sweat stained every pore;
His sides. they pierced; His legs they break
He suffered all for your dear sake!
o, children, let your hearts ascend
This Xmas morn, to Christ. your friend,
He is your very help in.need;
He il your friend-He is indeed
Your sinless brother deifiedl
