They Will Be Spread Through.
out the Land Tomorrow.


Commencing with the Hanging Of the
Stocking in the Chimney Corner Tonight
and Continuing Until the Merry Feast Of
Christmss Is Over-Obssrvances.
Tomorrow occurs the gladstone fes-
tival of Christmas tide. the hottest.
merriest, most welcome of all the
holidays that the world recognizes.
The glad tidings which nearly two
thousand years ago were broken to
the shepherds 10 the hills Of Judea
by the appearance of the star Of the
east. will again bring the blessings
of peace on earth, good will to all.
1t is the time above all others
throughout the year, as it has been
since the birth of Christendom when
for the day at least, all rejoice. 1t is
the day of giving-of seeking to
bring happiness to each other. We
should not content ourselves there
fore with enjoying the blessings that
we may receive, but should seek to
remember those to whom the festi-
val does not bring either its divine or
its happy thoughts. Hence. one OF
the best privileges should be TO re-
member the unfortunate. A turkey
or even less expensive gift left at
the doorstep of some poor family
may bring a sense Of joy that would
otherwise not be realized.
Religious Observnnccs.
In the protestant churches the SER
vices of yesterday were devoted
mainly to the Christmas festival, the
sermons in each instance bearing
on to the great occasion. Tonight
the Christmas observances begin at
Trinity church with midnight cele-
bration. Tomorrow there will be
mathis, sermon and celebration al
10 q. m, and even song and sermon
at $50 p. m. At ST. Joseph's Roman
Catholic church mass will be cele-
brated tomorrow at 3, s and 1880 a.
m. At the German Lutheran there
will be services at 10 a. m. and 7:S(
p. m. At the Christian church there
will be a sunrise service.
Sunday school Festivals.
Tonight will occur the Sunday
school festivals of the Broadway
Presbyterian, the First NJ. E., and
the German Luthern churches. Th'
Central and Trinity chapel will have
their festivals Wednesday evening
Trinity church and the Christian
Thursday evening, the latter at thu
armory.

THE stockholders OF the Lloyd's
National bank. at Jamestown. X. ID.
have been assessed 800 each share in
order to pay the creditors. This
means that the stockholders lose not
only what they had in the bank, but
have to pay in a much more to make
good the holdings Of depositors. A
few instances Of this kind win
prove most valuable lesson to those
interested in banks throughout the
country, and result in more careful
supervision in these institutions. The
government is taking every precau-
ton to protect depositorS. in national
banks aS far as possible.

A CONTRAST.

A year ago in the fair city of
PASADENA, the thermometer away up
somewhere between 10 and 80, the air
redolent with the perfume of orange
blossoms, viOlets and roses, and must
cal with the humming of bees over
the mignonette beds, and hooking
birds among the graceful branches of
the pepper trees. At the fruit stores
fresh vegetables and fruit stand out
all day to tempt the passer by. A
little company of us start out for a
picnic with friends who own an
orange ranch near the foothills, where
the happy fields are beginning to
glow just in the background. The
eternal mountains lift up their gray
heads toward the blue sky. We stop
under the spreading branches of live
oak, and spread blankets and robes on
the ground, and while some of our
members cultivate the soil around the
young orange trees, the remainder re-
cline on the robes and cultivate lofty
thoughts while gazing up in the blue
sky.
The noon train up the mountain
railway reminds us it's time to spread
the cloth and set out the goodies. A
couple of charming young ladies in
the company suggest we cheer the
heart OF the young plowman not far
away, by asking him to eat dinner
with us. We know him, and that un-
derneath that blouse there beats a
noble heart, and his mother puts up
big dinners. So we invite him to
come over and bring his dinner pail.
Ihere are few Interruptions while
eating. The waiter threw the little
company into Mysteries by sitting
down on a part of the dinner, and a

If the figures presented by Mr..
Swan, of the Board of Public Works,
as to the increased cost of running
the pumping station for the past
three years are correct, and we pre-
sumo they are, we would like to ask
that gentleman who is to blame?
What is the Board of Public Works
for if it's duties are not to have gen.
eral supervision over all matters COM
ing under its department.? Certainly
the extravaganza of having three men
do the work formerly performed by
one, is not the fault of engineer
Palmer, but rather that of the Board.
The fireman could well have been dis
pensed with when an assistant
engineer was engaged, thus making
an annual saving in salary of $40. The
street force, if necessary, could have
been ordered to unload a car of coal
once a week or so often as require
mentS might demand. Then the
manner Of depoSing Mr.. Palmer ''for
the good of all concerned" without
giving single reason why it was
done was, to say the least, most I'M
called for and decidedly unjust. No
man, however competent, can run a
machine worn and out of repair as is
the one in use, as economically as the
same machine could be operated when
new and in good repair. The Boa, d
is also responsible for the advance in
wages of the fireman and is equally,
if there is any blame attaching, guilty
for putting in an assistant engineer.
If there has been any needless ex-
penses in this line incurred, Mr.. Swan
should assume the burden of respon-
sibility and not try to shove it onto
the shoulders of one who has no
authority, save as the same is given
him by the Board. There is no just
ground for arguing that change of
engineers will reduce the expense of

young man of nine summers lay back
on the grass and laughed until he was
ready to cry with the stomach ache.
Then the sun came down so hot. the
owner of the ranch got up and pulled
the buggy up so the canopy top would
give us a little more shade, and after
partaking freely of sandwiches. press
ed meat, eggs. cheese, cake. jelly, jam
and fruit, took the pie, mounted to a
seat in the buggy and ate it all, but a
small piece, and on dear, we had made
the crust out OF butter for our own
special benefit, and butter thirty-tve

we never dared report him until now
the Rocky mountains are between us.

This winter, here in Minnesota. the
blue sky looks down with the same
solemn gladness. All nature is clothed
IN her robe OF white getting little
thin in some places. People dressed in

tiers and sleighs, dash along to the
music of merry bells or on skates,
glide up and down the river We en-
joy the change Of seasons. The air is
bracing, and when the thermometer
runs down to about twenty below

AN UNWlSE LEADER.

Time is developing the fact that the
Knights of Labor made a grand mis-
take when they selected a successor
to Mr.. Powderly aS the head of their
order, for many as may have been ms
faults, he was vastly the superior OF
Mr.. Sovereign as leader. The latest
move of the present Master Workman
is the declaration that he Will DEFY
the recent injunction of Judge JenK-
ms. restraining the employees OF the
northern Pacific railroad from con
spring to quit work with or without
notice. for the purpose OF GRIPPING
the operation of the road. Instead
of following the course which wise
leadership dictates, he counselS deli
ence. resistance. and rebellion. This
shows neither good sense nor cool
Judgment. In the first place there is
nothing in the order issued by Judge
Jenkins which prevents any man in
the employ of the Northern Pacific
road from refusing TO work for 1t Ii
he so sees fit. Every employe OF the
Northern Pacific is just as free today
as he ever was to continue in that en-
pIoyment. if wanted, or to quit. il he
desires. He is simply restrained from
conspiring with his fellow employees to
in any way embarrass the receivers
in their management of the road. This
may be somewhat unusual method,
but it does not seem altogether I'M
reasonable or improper, for strike IL
1ndulged in, and at the time the order
was issued it seemed somewhat imi-
nent, would be in nature OF public
calamity, for it would not only SER
iouSly embarrass the road, but also the
people along the road and in other
parts OF the country where dependent
GlDOn the traffic over the same. Mr..
Sovereign should remember that the
people have a few rights as well DIS the
employees in question, and that in the
settlement of the difficulty they are
entitled to some respect.
But in the wild and frothy asSer-
tions he has INDUCED in, Mr.. Sover-
eign has not exhibited any OF the ele-
mentS of leader which should be eX-
ercised by man in his position.
Judge Jenkins court is not court OF
last resort. There is a higher court,
where an appeal. could be taken and
tried :, upon its merits. If Judge
Jenkins order isgood law it will stand.
If it is not good law it must by the
qogic OF events fall of its own weight.
ut it will never be proven poor law,
nor an act of injustice by such lurid
and anarchistic rantings as Mr..
Sovereign has been relieving himself
of for the past few days, nor will his
Brder be strengthened or benefited
thereby; and it is to be hoped that the
-tnenLwnl not / be lead into an open de
fiance OF the court, by his wild re-
marks.

WILL COME IN SPITE OF 1T.

Some Of the free trade papers are
now engaged in writing labored editor
ials, attempting to show that the
signs of returning prosperity are due
to the prospects Of the immediate
enactment of the Wilson bill. The
reports of the commercial agencies
show that there is gradual improve
ment in trade throughout the cOun-
try. but such improvement as there
is. is not due TO any prospects OF the
Wilson bill, nor any effect it may
have after such enactment, but rather
in spjte Of it. Consumption Of man
uf2ctIIres in this country has reached
the lowest point in years, and yet is
vastly above that Of foreign nations,
but whether such consumption could
be maintained, in the long run, at a
considerable higher point, under the
proposed economic changes of the free
traders, is another question.
In spite of the assertions OF the free
traders, the Republicans have not
predicted that times would not grow
better after passage OF the Wilson bill.
ANY one endowed with any degree of
common sense knows that with the
removal of the uncertainty OF what
the tariff changes are to be, and the
employment again Of the thousands
now out of work, even though they
be employed upon a free trade basis
of wages, that there must be an i'm
Drovement over the condition which
exists when these. thousands are not
employed, and are to certain extent,
dependent upon charity for subslS-
tence. 70 argue otherwise would be
the height Of folly. But what Repub
licans have maintained and do still
maintain, is that such a degree of
prosperity can not be reached upon
such a basis. as would be the case I'M
der protective policy.
And it stands to reason that they
they are right, for the class who are
obtaining Shopper day are not and can
not possibly be as good class OF con-
Sumers as those who are receiving
double that amount, and SO on. The
SUSPENDED factories which are now
fortunate enough to resume work, are
doing SO at reduced wages, and in
many instances reduced forces. They
are reSuming operations because
stocks are running low, and consump-
fion demands more, and this is not
because of the Wilson bill, but in
spite oft. People have got toliye on
matter what the economic changes
are. But whatever is the cause of
such resumption, it will be most
heartily welcomed by the people of all
classes and without regard to political
Affiliations, and they will hope that it
will continue to increase and spread,
