THE CHRISTMAS TIDE.

This is a season that has been
celebrated by men long before the
beginning of history. When
primeval man shivered in caves, and
watched the struggle of the sun
while the short days gained over
the long nights, this festival began.
And as it was really a part of the
worship of the sun, the symbol
selected was blazing log-the Yule
log. During this term slaves were
allowed license, and freemen re.
joiced in the pleasures of eating
and drinking, and in charity to
those more unfortunate than them.
selves.
When the Catholics church came
along with its wonderful facility
for converting to Christian purposes
the feasts of the pagans, this festival
was devoted to the commemoration
of the birth of Christ, though it is
we'll known that Augustus Caesar
did not take the census of his EN-
pire in mid winter. 1t is easier to
give a new name to a religious
institution than it is to DESTROY il.
This the Catholic church has often
acted upon; no better instance being
the conversion of the illuminations
of the mountains of Mexico in wor.
ship of Montezuma to the honor of
Our Lady of Guadalupe who is said
to have appeared to the Aztec
shepherd as he watched his focks
on the hills of Old Mexico more
than three centuries age.
So Old Nick, the German spirit
OF mischief that played pranks about
Yule tide, was oanonized, and the
festival conieorated to Christ. And
since the conversion of our pagan
ancestors in the forests of Germany
and Britain to the worship of Christ,

Mr.. Mushback-What did you

General Lee-I turned it over to

M. Mashback inquired of the

were collected. Before ans w.ring
the question General Lee stated that
he believed it was perfectly right
and proper that railroads, like other
parties having property rights in
Virginia and residing outside,
should contribute toward the ex

of their rights being protected, but

ROMAN CATHOLIC AGGRESSION.

The present Pope is grand per.
sonage, and is at heart the friend of
the people. But being an Italian
can not underetand how the public
schools can be run without religious
control That children need and
should have religious instruction
few will deny, but why this in.
struction can not be given by the
schools separate and apart from the
public schools does not appear.
The demand of the Catholics soon
to be made on tue Legislature of
New York and Maryland for share
of the public school fund and the
presence of the Legate S,tolli at
Washington are stirring up the
wrath of protestants most nightly.
But fair.minded men should remem.
Der that the Catholics were not the
original aggressors. The New
England puritans would insist on
reading the King James Bible in
the public schools, knowing that it
was not the translation accepted by
the Catholic church. They use
the Doway translation. The
Catholics to prevent the prose.
lytiDg of their young
by the Yank aes, were forced to or.
yanize and conduct parochial
schools at great expense. And Pho
Mono, being very ordinary man
md a reactionary puppet in the
hands of the Jesuits, had himself
declared infallible and issued an
'ncyclical on the school question
which greatly hampers the present
authorities of the Roman church.
f the Roman church could free
tself from the influence of the
'ssults, and definitely drop it's
assumptions of temporal power, in
he present temper of the world
here is little doubt but that the
catholic church would enter upon
most wonderful career of growth
nd influence in this country. But
n the lines it seems to be laying
own for its advance, it is going to
ncounter most bitter hostility and
rushing defeat, This much is Ger.

Favorable Resolution Read in the
Chamber OF Commerce.
Nearly half hundred members were
present at yesterdays meeting of the
chamber of commerce. The proposition
to diScontinue executive sessions was
again mooted, but decision thereon
was deferred for a week.
A communication from the New York
chamber OF commerce WAS real. which
asks for cooperation in the quarantine
measures with view to putting into
effect a national quarantine system
WITHOUT delay, SO that cholera may pe
kept from our shores. The necessity of
such cooperation is especially urged i'll
view of the Columbian fair.
There was read communication
from an association of Toledo, O., asking
cooperation in providing a nationa.
organization to abate the smoke Hui-
sauce. This communication, as we'll as
the one from New York relative to quar-
anline. was referred to the health COM
mittee.

LINEN SALE.

Our 37th Annual Linen
Sale begins today. You
may say that's an old story.
1t is an old story-37 years
old-but it has improved
with every telling.
The Linen Sale of go will
be the grandest of a grand
series. From a small begin
ming on Bridge Square,
when St. Paul was little
more than an Indian vii
lage, a Linen business has
been built up that has few
equals in the United States.
We have kept pace with the
growth of St. Paul. The
Linen Stock has done more
than that. 1t has grown to
proportions which would be
a credit to New York or
Boston. There certainly is
nothing in the West that
can approach it.
The greatest and most
important features Of our
Annual Linen Sale are the
Reduced Prices
at which the entire stock
will be marked.
1t is an "occasion" which
comes but once a year-an
occasion for saving
5fOr our customers. 1t is a
means of adding to our rep
gutation, but not to our

QUASHED THE WRIT.

comptroller MCCaruy apparently
iii on TOp in Il suit.
Judge OTIS made an order yesterday
in the mandamuS case of Lorenzo Hoyt
against the comptroller. This was an
application to compel the comptroller
TO audit the pay roll of the health de-
partment. The text of Judge OTIS de-
cision on motion to quash the inter
locutory mandamuS is as follows:
1t is ordered that said writ be quashed
unless within ten d iys after the service
hereof by copy on REALTORS counsel S1id
relatOr shall cause SAID writ to be
amended so that tie same shall state
facts suflicientto require said respond
ent, j. ). McCardy, to make answer
thereto, and shall pay to said hicCardy
The sum Of $40 as costs herein.
In a memorandum the judge says:
The writ and answer thereto constitute
the pleadingS. This makes it necessary
that there be recited IN the writ ali the
iSSuable facts upon which the relator
relies with the same definiteness and
particularly as is required in a CON-
plant in a civil action. Tne meager
rcciUals in the writ are clearly
in nilic:ent for this plrpose. The
petition, even if served with it,
huo NV ulNNC poi VI ~ ttud
S, cannot be referred TO for the pur-
p So of helping it out. 1t is doubtful
whether the petition and writ taken to-
get!ier would have been sufficient.
The charter OF the city, as amended
in 1891, section 7, expressly provides:
mo claim. demand or account shall be
audited by him (the comptroller Or re
ptr,ed to the council, until there shall
be sufficient money in the treasury to
tile credit OF the particular fund or ac+
count out of which the same is payable,
to pay for the same, as we'll as the other
uI!'a'd claims before that time audited
and allowed against such fund" o.
This is nowhere made to appear in
the papers and the provision is manda-
tory upon the comptroller. Whether
mandamus will lie at all against THE
comptroller may perhaps depend upon
the facts Of the particular case as dis
closed upon more full and accurate
statement thereof, and it is better not
TO pass upon the question until more
full, definite and certain presentation
OF the REALTORS claim has been made to
the court. +-g3.

The Entire G., b. q Q. System,
Queen 81 Crescent Route and

Now in the Hands of the Adams
EXpress Com
pany.

The Adams Express Company, al
though the oldest company of its kind
in the United States, was, up to a few
years ago, confined 10 the territory
where it originated. in the East. The
company always conducted large, safe
and conservative business in that local
ity, but with new and younger blood in
fused into It's management, it has with
in the past few years made its name ia
miliar in every part of the country. Its
last and most valued acquisition is the
complete absorption of the express bus
mess of the Chicago, Burlington Il
Quincy system. embracing 7,5l5 miles Of
road, having Wrested this from the
American and WellS-Fargo Express
companies on the first Of this year.
In addition to the above they also
took from the United States Express
company the entire Queen IL Crescent
route from Cincinnati to New Orleans,
and the Louisville Southern from Lex
ingtOn to Louisville, making $500 miles
more.
They now stand in better condition
to execute the requirements of their
patrons than any express company in
the country, penetrating as they do
nearly every section.
Judging from the way their agent in
St. Paul conducts their otfairs at this
end, the Adams is broadgauge and lib
erai. He insists upon every employee
being courteous and accommodating to
the public, and IN his intercourse with
the business community no more genial
and popular man ever represented
