Party Vote in Kansas.

From o tabulated statement Of the
total vote Of the state in the late cleo
ton on governor in all but five coun'
ties and an estimate Of the vote In
these counties the Capital makes Q
| comparison between the various par
ties and the gains and losses since the
last state election analysed. The
total vote for governor is:
P0pulist
Democratic. m'Ss@
Prohibition. 'oi'
The Republican plurality over both
Democrats and Populsts Is 1888 and
the official returns from the five coun-
ties estimated may possibly make 1t a
clean majority over all three other
parties.
The total vote cast was 293, 1874, ex-
ceeding the estimates Of all the state
committees. In 1890 the total vote
was 294 6SI. In that year the Re
publican vote for governor was 49,
OPS and the Popuist vote l06,972.
But this is not fair to the vote Of
either party, both the Republican and
Populist gubernatorial candidates
running considerably behind their
tickets that year The average Pop
ulist vote in 1890 was ll5, 372and the
average Republican vote 12l, 4H.
1t appears, therefore, from the re-
turns that the Populists have gained
AZ votes in four years and the Repnb-
licans have gained 24,S22.
Compared with the vote OF two
years ago the total vote Of the last
week fell Of 10 per cent. The Repub-
lican vote fell of, however, but per
cent and the combined Democratic
and populist vote lS per cent.
The Republican party cast more
votes than the two principal opposing
parties and undoubtedly has enough
votes to defeat the enemy int any form
at any election provided its admins
tration Of the affairs OF the state Is
clean and incorruptiblc and COM
mends Itself to the support and APP
proyal Of the members Of Its own
party.

CHRISTMAS DAY.

Tomorrow will be Christmas day
of rejoicing throughout the Christian
world; day that, being originally kept
as strictly religious day, has become,
perhaps, none the less religious, since it
is devoted to making others happy, and
especially the children, of whom Christ
has given the promise of reward, as
though the good done unto them were
done unto Him. The day is kept as the
anniversary of His nativity, and this is
accepted as being absolutely true by
perhaps nine-tenths of the civilized
world. The day of Christ's birth is not
known, and even the year as given in
our calendar is conceded by the best au-
thorities to be either three or four years
too late. There is not month but has
had some reason advanced and some
claim made to its being the month of
Jesus birth. That it was not December
is not only possible, but probable, for
among other reasons, that was the mid
die of the rainy season IN Palestine, and
the shepherds would not have been
abroad in the fields at night with their
AOcks. The date, December 18th, can
not be traced back further than the
middle of the fourth century; but it was
adopted by st. Jerome, st. Augustine
and others. There is some slight evi-
dence that the birth of the Savior oc-
Cured IN October; some that the date

LESSONS FROM THE DUST.


Besides the Babylonian explorations
now being conducted by Americans,
other delving in antiquities is also going,
on, notably in Egypt. Here a work of
great value has been done by CASTOR
Maspero, who is regarded as the fore
most Egyptologist of the day, and who
has recently published work entitled
tsThe dawn of Civilization" Maspero is
the man who brought to light the great
temple of Duxor, built by Amenhotop
III, about 1880 B. c. It was hidden by
a native village, whase rubbish had ac-
cumulated over the roof of the temple to
depth of forty or fifty feet, and it was
a work of great difficulty and expense to
buy out the villagers SO as to proceed
with the enterprise of excavation. The
work, however, amply rewarded the
savant. He unearthed the remains of a
temple nearly $500 years old, which
contained sculptures of the most deli
cate execution and statues and columns
of great beauty and architectural excel
lence.
Another great work of Maspero's was
B4O OlSCONSIy VI VI Idu1OSO0
II, the Pharaoh who figures in the Bible
at the time of the Israelite captivity in
Egypt. The mummy showed him so
little changed after his long interment
that his face would have been recognized
by any one who had known him in life !;
each feature was preserved, and his
countenance revealed the prodigious age
- L. 1. i I, of
sixty seven years came to close. Did
the people of these far-distant times
look forward to a day centuries after
them, when she tombs, statues and tenn
pies should be thrown open to the light
of another civilization, another race of
inquiring men who should be looking in
the dust for lessons of art and learning
and life? Perhaps they shared even
then in the arrogant spirit of our mod
ern self-suficiency, fearful lest all learn
ing should die with them.
With all our boasted triumphs OF
modern civilization, we need nothing,
perhaps, so much as to be reminded of
our debt to the past. We go back to
the centuries that are buried for our
best thoughts in architecture and in
furnishings; in science we are putting
up ramshackle structures of controversy
and speculation upon the theorems of
Egypt and of Greece; our art has moth
ing at all to show alongside the cold"
masters. and our libraries, if of any
worth, have been written for. us, from
floor to ceiling, by the dead. Of living,
more, perhaps, than anything else, do
we need, yet refuse to learn, the lessons
of forgotten centuries. The old and
homely virtues, honesty, industry, self
denial, confluence these we put away
for the easier touchings of pleasure and
dishonesty. We run after false gods of
yiciousness and ignorance, seek outside
ourselves for remedies for our own de-
fects, daily with corruption in public
and private life. The certain fatal effect
of these things is written upon the tab
let's and in the inscriptions of all an
tiquity. But if any is blind to the light
that has come into the world, the scrip
lures teach truth of such.-Oregonian

was IN April, but nothing definite
enough to be satisfactory.
Christmas day, or rather the date
corresponding to it, and following the
winter solstice, had been observed by
different nations long before the nativity
of Jesus. By the Chaldeans and Egyp-
tians the day was celebrated because the
sun had again started on its journey
northward, and at this time the Romans
kept the feasts of Saturnalia. It is
quite probable, therefore, that the wise
leaders of the Christians, the teachers,
adopted this day, but gave their com
verts different reason for observing it.
However, the day has come to be ac-
cepted as that of the birth of the Savior,
and is kept as such. A day wherein the
lessons of charity are taught; day
when business cares are forgotten, and
sei6shness gives place to sympathy, TO
pity, to generosity; TO recognition of
the common brotherhood of humanity !;
to peace and good will As such, long
may it continue to be observed.
