uting the gifts.
At the Baptist church Monday
evening there was large gathering
and at 7.30 short program was given
after which between sixty and seven
ty-tive children received presents from
Santa Claus. The stage was taken up
completely, there being in the center
log cabin showing the snow and the
chimney down which old Santa came
to visit the children. Inside could be
seen fire place and bright fire
burning therein above which the little
stockings we're hanging. At the ends
of the platform two large trees were
placed on, which presents of every de-
Scription were hung.
At the Methodist church there were
two Christmas trees laden with goodies
toys and useful articles all of which
we're given away. At 1880 O'Clock
there was standing room only for the
presents and friends who enjoyed the
short program before Santa Claus
showed himself, closing with music
by the school Ring Ginning Bells"

Backbone. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn. ;) 1897-1906, 1900-10-01

About 500 people greeted the Satterlee
Trio at Dawson. Twenty three subscrip-
lions to Backbone were taken and club
organized.
The disgraceful riot at Akron, O., was
caused by the saloon. The negro at
tributed his crime to liquor and said he
had been on a spree for month. The
saloons had groomed him for the lustful
deed which excited the mob, and the mob
was impelled to violence by liquor; hence
it was that the mayor in his efforts to
quell the mob ordered all the saloons to be
closed.
Don't let a page of Prohibition literature
intended for distribution remain in your
hands until election day. Won't you make
a search just now for some and start
1t on its mission? We especially request
that every copy of Backbone be kept 60
ing Particularly if you ever receive more
than one copy, please consider it an in
V1tat1On to pass one on to neighbor.
Literature costs money and ought to be
used.
While the indignation of the American
people is being hurled at the heads of
those who have insulted Bryan and at
tackled Roosevelt while addressing their
fellow citizens, it should not be forgotten
that the un-American treatment which
they have received is as complimentary
testimonial compared with that which
large numbers of Prohibition speakers
have for years received at the hands of
saloonists and representatives of the IL
cense parties. The last incident of the
Kind took place at Fairfield, Iowa, the
other day, where whisky thug assaulted
the editor Of a local paper, an old SOL
der, and cowhided him thoroughly be-
cause he had advocated the enforcement
of the liquor laws and as a result the
holes-in- the-wall were closed up. Editor
Frazier made no resistance and will not
prosecute the brute who assaulted him.

building by experienced mechanics, and
according to plans prepared by the pro-
fessors of the several departments. In
this way the institution has secured bet
ter furnishing for less money than if the
articles had been purchased from the
factories. Throughout, the work of fur
nishing and equipment has proceeded IN
the theory that only the best goods in
every line should be procured.
The school was opened for the recep-
ton of students on the 18th of Septem-
her. The number desiring admission was
large but the requirements proved to be
in a of the preparation made by
the applicants. AS the faculty We're not
permitted to form preparatory classes,
only % pupils have been admitted. OF
these seventeen are freshmen, three are
in the sophomore class, and five are pur-
suing selected studies in the sophomore
or junior years of the course.
The result of three months experience
has led to the determination to open a
preparatory class Immediately after the
holidays. This action is not to be con-
sidered as the Inauguration of a depart
ment to give a general training in ele-
hleHtary studles 10 all VINO may apply
for admission, but as intended for the
benefit Of those who expect to enter the

to do much more and better service for
the state.
