Christmas at Dixie.

One of those good old fashioned
Christmas trees was held at Boil
mans hall in Dixie Christmas
evening. Two nicely decorated
trees well laden with presents stood
in the end of the hall and on each
side were nicely arranged saluta-
tiOns suitable to the occasion.
From side to side seats were ar.
ranged to accommodate the large
crowd that were assembled to take
part in the evenings entertain
ment. Mrs. Craig acted as master
of ceremonies, the children, of
whom great many were present,
spoke nice little pieces. Little
tots barely able to walk faced the
large crowd and without q tremor
told of Little Boy Blue and
kindred subjects. Hye Brothers
entertained the audience with sew
erol vocal and instrumental selec-
tions. Santa Claus was welcomed
hy the little ones with great enthu-
siasm on his descent from the attic
where he had been in waiting.
A. G. Gallupe took the part Of
Santa" very creditably, going
through the welcoming of the little
ones and presenting them with can
dies that he had stored about his
person. After the distribution of
the presents Mr.. Coulter, for the
la lies, in a few we'll chosen words
thanked the audience and the
people of Dixie generally, for their
support and assistance IN making
the children's tree the success it
was. X.

GOVERNOR HUNTS VIEWS.
Declares In Favor of Govern
m0nt Ownership.

The dispatches bring reports of
the proceedings of the meeting of
the governors of the western states
at Helena during the week to Sc
cure uniformity of action in the
matter of curtailing the powers of
the railroad trust by legislation or
otherwise. Gov. Hunt, of Idaho,
was present and in submitting a
resolution relative to the subject
gave his views on the situation in
Idaho as follows: "Idaho has no
present interest in the formation of
the railway consolidation. We be-
lieve in the vast benefits the rail-
roads are giving the west. We i'm
vite them to enter our state and
offer them every reasonable encour-
agement to do SO, but l do not be-
Iieve present encouragement of the
railway consolidation would result
in the extension of the consolida-
ton in the state, but rather the re-
verse. The future of the state has,
however, direct and vital interest
in this merger. In a very few
years the timber, agricultural and
mineral resources of that portion of
the state will have reached such
development that they must have
transportation competition or snf-
fer
Il believe in government owner
ship in preference to private mo-
nopoly. which is apparently in
sight, and submitted such a resolu-
ton, recommending that as we'll as
a congressional investigation to the
conference; with some modifica-
tiuns and the clause recommending
government ownership stricken out
it was adopted. In my opinion
the principle Of governmental con-
troll is far preferable to the abso-
lutte political and commercial power
that will ultimately inure to the
syndicate having the ownership of
the railways of the country. with
the dangerous and almost unlim-
tied power to blast the fortunes of
individuals or communities along
its lines, which cannot be controlled
for the purpose of trusts, be they
good or bad"

that at late meeting Of the Com

stated that the Northern Pacific

in the proposed thoroughfare from

also been advised that the Grange

submit a plan of cooperation be-

whereby the interests Of both COM
munities would be served, and
therefore the commercial club did
nothing in the matter. The

The Vampire Of Society.

Men condemn those who COM
init murder, who rob their fellow
men, who commit crimes against
statutory enactment, but at the
same time commend those who
attempt to destroy the reputa-
tons and character of their
neighbors. The ghoul's work
could not be accomplished with
out the assistance of the most
reputable element of society,
who mentally feed upon the food
offered by this vampire. Hav-
ing no respect for himself, no
knowledge of honor, this man
whose mind rests in the filth of
it's own creation assails those
whom his envy points out as a
possible victim. With a mind
full of uncleanliness he ever
seeks to bring down to his own
level those about him. Lost to
all sense of decency he becomes
a blackmailer and then poses as
friend of society. Seeking to
gain the favor of Satan, he de-
scends to depths that would be
abhorred by his master. With
out a soul he ponders to the
mental depravity about him and
is happy in his own unhappiness.

John C. Calhoun, the arch

John G. Calhoun, the arch
prophet of slavery, gave his en-
tire life to the service of the
South. He amassed large for
tune that enabled him to enter
tain all comers in grand style,
but he despised the accumulation
of money as business, or aim of
life. His private life was blame
less, and he missed the high office
of president only because his wife
snubbed Peggy" Eaton, who
was President Jackson's female
pet. This turned Jackson against
him, and Jackson even sought
occasion to have him hung but
failed in that, but he did prevent
him from becoming president.
This is one of many instances
where a good and popular man
has become the victim of circum-
stances, and died with disap-
pointed ambition. Calhoun was
the greatest logician in his day.
His arguments have never been
successfully met, and he was
feared more than any other
Southern statesmans He stood
for absolute state rights. His
idea Of state rights was the idea
the United States started on and
it was only after long continued
Capitalization methods that CAL
houn's idea perished. His great
antagonist was Daniel Webster.
The centralizing tendencies that
Calhoun fought are seen in pol
itics, educational institutions,
commerce and religion. Where
it will stop God only knows

Can This Be Truel

Old and diseased horsee and
mules are slaughtered and sold
under the name of beef by four
large packing houses in Chicago;
fish that have died natural
death are a regular article of
merchandise in some sections of
that city, and in no part of Illinois
is there any protection to the con-
sumer against flour that is adult
Grated and against the deleterious,
impure vinegar which st. Louis
sends into the state in large
quantities.
These disclosures were made
by Assistant State Food Com
missioner R. M. Patterson in an
ADDRESS delivered before the Re-
tail Merchants Association of
Illinois at Aurora.
1.-THE inspectors of the food
commission" said Mr.. Patterson,
"have located in Chicago four
slaughter houses for horses,
mules and donkeys. Real beef
is never handled in these places
but their delivery wagons run to
markets, restaurants and free
lunch saloons with great regular
ity."
Hardly a horse, mule or dom
key is ever too aged or diseased
to be handled, and none other
than such animals are too valu-
able to compete with beef and
mutton for food purposes. Ring
bone, spawned and sore footed
nags, and even those that have
glanders are killed in great num-
bers for the trade"
"The meat is sold for corned
beef, hamburger steak and sau-
sage. In the fall of the year
much of it is picked or preserved
and sold as picked or canned
beef. The traffic goes on under
cover of darkness. The live AT =
imals are led and carried in at
night, slaughtered between two
and four O'Clock in the morning
and the deliveries of meat are
made before daylight. Often the
residents in the neighborhood
have no idea of the nature of the
industry near them. "-Odell (ll)

pettus' Comment.

Pettus of Alabama, the Oldest
man in the senate, was sitting in
a poker game at his own home a
few nights ago with some friends,
one of whom was a young and
rather exuberant person. The
game was for small stakes, but
was lively.
Once Senator Pettus and the
young man were in a pot together.
There were a good many raises.
Finally the venerable senator
laid down his hand. The young
man laughed and placed his cards
on the table face up. He had
nothing. The senator had been
bluffed out. Senator Pettus
looked at the ceiling.
1.-The most alarming and dis
couraging sign of the total de-
generacy of the times" he said,
