Hints for Christmas.

At this season everybody is think
ing OF the coming of Christmas.
think it is the most delightful season
in the whole year. One is always
happening upon beautiful mysteries.
You enter a room, and you see some
body hastily covering up what she is
doing that YOU may not observe it, or
you hear people in the family talking
in low and confidential tones.
But it is charming to save up ones
money and spend ones spare time in
preparing presents for those one loves.
The charm of a present is in its suiting
the person who receives it. AS rule
a grandmother does not care for pre-
cisely the same sort of thing that is
agreeable to child of ten. You would
not give pair of skates to cripple,
nor book of fairy tales to a grave
elderly person who would probably
prefer sober history.
1t is nice, if possible, to make ones
presents with ones own hands, because
nothing is SO delightful as to receive
gift into which love and thought
have gone. If find in my Christmas
stocking some dainty lace which a
dear girl has been knitting for me a
long time before, and planned what to
do for me. A set of dOylies, towels
embroidered with a pretty device or a
monogram, dainty handkerchief, a
pair of bed side slippers, little case
in which to keep a fountain pen; for a
gentleman, shaving case; box of
of paints for child; a pretty game or
some beautiful little thing in silver
will make happy the one on whom
you bestow it. And books make
charming gifts; so does calendar

Needed Legislation.

Upon this subject there seems to Ire
an almost unanimous demand for Il
provision for the semiannual payment
OF taxes. There is no sense in having
the money for state and county ex-
penses for an entire year paid in all at
once Where the system has been
adopted it has given perfect satisfac-
ton, and b. proper simplificatlon
of the present revenue laws it will re-
quire much less clerical work for the
double consumption than it now does
for the one Let the present numer-
cal system be retained, but where two
or more adjoining lots or tracts are
owned by the same party let there be
but one computation, instead of two,
four, six or eight, as the case may be.
The work of afterward dividing the
levy in the few cases where it may be
required will be nothing compared
with the saving made in the first place.
Another measure of nearly as great
importance is the question OF attor-
ney fees in suits on promissory notes.
There is no law on the subject in this
state, and the courts have been in the
habit of allowing at least ten per cent,
no matter how large the sum, and sell
dom less than $25, no matter whether
there is contest or not. This Is Il
serious abuse and often imposes al an
necessarily heavy burden upon an III
nocent debtor. In some states the
law regulates these collection fees, so
that for sums of 5000 or less ten per
cent may be collected; for the excess
of $500 up to $1,000, three per cent:
and for all in excess of $1,000, one per
cent, These two questions are of gen
eral Importance, and the legislature
will do we'll to give them consideration
and pass laws for relief in these
things.-Aberdeen Herald.

Hoods siPsss1siil' Cures


The Telegraph prints some sound
sense about fiat money, as follows:
A favorite proposition with some of
those who discuss financial questions
is that if the credit of the nation is
is good for bond issue with interest,
it is good for note issue without in
terest. This as an abstract proposition
is undoubtedly true, but suppose we
follow out the application of the prin-
ciple which undellies a note issue,
that is q mere fiat currency, and see
where it will land us. Manifestlv, if
the taxes fall short of the expenditure
$50,000,00 and the government may
safely issue notes to meet the deficien-
cy, ii may do so where the deficit is
$lOC,O00,000 or %j00,000,000. If not,
why not? Why have taxes at all?
Why not have the government meet
its obligations by its notes? Why not
keep the printing presses running day
and night printing notes SO that we
may all be put on the government pay
roll at handsome salaries? The mosl
ardent advocate OF government made
money will say that this would be
nonsense; that there must be a limit
somewhere.
But, is it not true that govern
ment note is not worth anything I'M
less it re resents something which the
government agrees to do? We have
seen it urged that if man works fol
the government and the government
pays him with a note, that the note
represents his labor and is therefore
valuable, because all that makes money
valuable anywhere is that it represents
wealth and all wealth is finally reduce
able to labor. But this is arguin
from the wrong end. If man gave
his note to the government by which
he agreed to do so much work, that
would be valuable because it would
represent labor to be performed, but a
government note, not redeemable in
any way, would simply be certificate
that man had worked for the govern
ment and would be Of no more value
than certificate that IL man might
give his slave to the same effect.
Issue paper money and build roads
say some, whose appreciation OF the
necessity for good roads and the need
of providing work is better than their
ideas OF finance. Such money, unless
1t were receivable for taxes or the pay
ment OF government land or exchange
able for gold or othel, would not be
worth anything at all. Nobody would
give a bushel Of wheat for handful of
1T. There would have to be behind
the note the governments agreement
to do something to give it any value
whatever.

Bartering Justice.

A scandal arising from the Mcbride
case, is said to be brewing in the de-
partment of the interior. 1t is pro-
posed by the legal department of this
state to prove by the late legal adviser
of the United States that corruption
exists in that department, and that
'justice has been bought and sold like
wheat" such being the exact words of
the late counsel of the land office ac-
cording to Attorney General Jones, of
this state.
For several years there has been a
persistant attempt to wrest school Sec
ton Is, located in the southern part
of Tacoma, from the State and turn it
over to John g. Mcbride and others
as a placer claim. In order to avoid
the reported corruption to bring the
case before the United States district
court for this state on a motion to set
aside the late rulings of Register MUIR
ply and Receiver Hawkins of the
Olympia land Office in favor of the
grabbers. This decision was reached
before President Cleveland approved in
message to Congress that the import
ant matter Of deciding on land con-
tests should be taken out of the hands
of the department. and Hoke Smiths
command, and be vested in nom
partisan court. This is considered
very significant, under the circum-
stances.
