MAKE TIE P0O7 HAPPK.

If there is one thing more than another
that makes the hearts of true men and
women happy, it is to see little children
enjoying themselves at Christmas times.
The parents cheerfully prepare for the
pleasures of the little ones at this time,
10 whSc adj little children look forward
10 with so much pleasure.
Yet there are many children every
where, some in Dawson especially, that
will see no Christmas unles, some good
persou provides for them from the fact
that their parents are in such pecuniary
circumstances as to forbid them making
any outlay for the pleasures of Christ
mas.
1t is plainly the duty of those who are
more fortunately situated to do some
thing to make others happy, and there
is no way ia which this can be done bet
ter that providing some means to make
the poor children of Dawson happy by
some little present.

Thirty years ago there were not more

section of the state which to-day con-
tains ono hundred and fifty thousand.
AT that rate but very small portion Of
the vast area of this extreme western
state was under cultivation; In fact
most of IL seemed only it for cattle
raising. Who could have imagined that
such a brilliant destiny awaited this
faraway region, whose only communica-
tion with the world was by the wagon
trains of overland routes and the sim
gle line Of coasters touching at its prin-
cipal seaports? And yet as far back as
1869 there was a little nucleus Of town
