Tomorrow brings around to US the
civilized worlds great holiday
Christmas. The name is derived from
the event 1t celebrates. All nations
have their national holiday to COM
memorate some great national event,
pcme great battle, perhaps, or like the
United States some great political
event like the Declaration of indie
pendence that gave to US our ma
TONS holiday, the Fourth of July, but
there Is no worldwide holiday but
Christmas. He for whom Christmas
takes its name 1860 years ago, redeem
cd the world by his death upon CAL
vary, how appropriate then that
Christmas should be worldwide hol-
iday.
That Christ was born on the 95th of
Dec. Is not clearly defined nor known,
.hFtt tiifat, hewas born is not doubted by
any part ofthe civilized world. That
he lived upon the earth and died upon
the cross, and BY his death redeemed
a ruined world is not denied, hence
the particular date of his birth Is not
materlal. His birth will be celebrated
Tomorrow. his resurrection from the
dead on Easter Sunday. The birth Of
chilli Ia a cause for joy and congrat-
ulations how much more so the ami
versary Of the birth of Saviour. In the
latter the humble surroundings OF his
birth makes it the more prominent
and the memory OF it the more impress.
slve.
The great men of the east were at
tracted to Bsthlehem by star where
they saw the heavenly stranger. They
did not come empty handed but with
them brought the choicest treasures OF
earth,gold from the mine, gems from
the ocean, myrrb from the forest and
laid them at the feet OF the infant
Christ. No doubt this was the inaugu.
ration OF the system Of gift-giving
that more than anything olse distin
guishes Christmas from other no Ii
days. Christ himself was gift fro n
Heaven, and his life was made up OF gift
giving. He gave food to the hungry
health to the sick. strength to the weak
life to the dead, and the greatest of al
gave mss!i fres gift that all this
world through him should have eter
nal life. 1t is appropriate then tina
gifts should be freely exchanged be
tween friends tomorrow. not forget
ting that greater gift all owe to tn,
greet gift-giver that brought US the
Christmas holiday.

desire to call your attention especially to
the mining class, taking into consideration
the thousands Of men and boys who arc
ENGAGED in the perlous vocation and, &C
cording TO the statistics, hundreds of poor
mortals are hurled into eternity annually,
and the numberless accidents that occur
every day. But alas no remedy is sug-
gesled by our mine inspectors to decrease
the awful record of disasters which We
are called upon TO witness, and for which
some one is responsible, either the en-
ployer or the employe. A large percentage
of casualties ara reported by the mine in
speclors reports aud the coroners' juries a.

remedy is offered by the proper parties, il
there be any. No attention is paid TO the
Same by either party. If the jury returne
a verdict, I'VE hnd the said A. 3. came to
his death by neglecting to obey orders" no
attention is paid to the verdict. The next
day similar accident oceurs and the sam
verdict is rendered can recall scores OF
instances where casualties have occurred
through gross neglect, yet q co-oner'S jury
failed to dx the blame on the proper par.

WHEN the crops Of our country are
estimated to be worth 500, 10000
more this year than lest, it proves one
Of two things, viz; Either that last
years. crop was not nearly an average,
or that this years. is beyond all COM
parison the greatest on record. Last
years crops, though not equal to those
OF 1891, were far from being failures,
hence we assume that 1891 takes the
cake in all that relates to the general
products of our farms and orchards,
And il such be thee now, what will
it be in the near future when the
constantly immense increasing acreage
ts taken into consideration There
Gs hundreds Of millions of acres OF
',-Auctive soil awaiting the opportun-
ity to contribute their share towards
the colossal cereal surpIusage. When
they do, the question will then be,
what shall we do with it.?
