We take pleasure in sub
scribing to the following from
the Priest River Enterprise:
Idaho never did a wiser
thing than when she sent Hon.
Burton l.. French to repre-
sent her in the halls of Con-
grcss. The beginning that he
has made proves it. Now,
there is only one proper course
to pursue. That is to give him
our hearty support and keep
him there.
There is one great advant-
age in safe majorities. 1t
makes it possible to retain a
good man in Congress after he
gets there. Every term a man
stays in Congress adds to his
usefulness to the country at
large, and particularly to his
constituents So much is done
in committees that members
usefulness depends largely
upon his assignments, and
these are governed partly BY
his geographical location; but
mostly by the ability he has
displayed in the past under
assignments. His
first term is largely expert
After he has proved
himself, then comes his oppor-
tunity. In close states it is
often the case that new man
is chosen nearly every election.
The result Of this policy on
the part .oI state means the
reduction of her influence in
Congress to the minimum.
Idaho has done well. She
has honored herself by honor
ing this young man, and she
will honor herself yet more by
keeping him where be is, and
thus avail herself Of his in
influence and useful
ness.

TILE TRIBUNE wishes all it's
readers a Merry Christmas
and a Happy New Year.

CHRISTMAS is again upon us,
gladdening the hearts of the
children in eager expectation
of what Santa Claus has in
store for them, and affording
their elders the opportunity,
pleasant, and welcome or
otherwise, of making the little
hearts glad'witlr the tangible
evidences of the mythical visit
of the jolly, fur clad elf, whose
inexhaustible store of toys and
good things is as wonderful
as his ubiquity. To the not
undcccived mind of the child,
the patron saint of Christmas
is very real and has a charm
and mystery which, if assisted
by some longed for toy. graf
ilies the little one and fills the
young heart with wonderful
happiness and satisfaction.
The legend of St. Nicholas is
a beautiful one and its semb-
lance Of reality is very ncces-
sary to the complete happi-
ness oflittle childrenin the full
enjoyment of their Christmas
cheer.
To the grown up person,
this legend is only interesting
as it interests the children.
The adults thoughts are of
the origin, significance and
proper observance of Christ
mas. From various authori-
ties we learn that the festival
and the time of the festival,
together with most of its cere-
monies, are of pagan origin.
The real origin of the time is
found in the winter solstice,
the barbarians of Northern
Europe, watching the suns
return from the south, and
hailing it as the triumph of
light over darkness. and the
province of the return Of
warmth and sunshine, which
meant SO much to them, they
rejoiced, and their rejoicing
found expression in feasting
and ceremonies peculiar to
their various religions. The
oak tree and the mistletoe en-
tered largely into the cerc-
monies of the Druids of an
cient Briton, the ule-log and
evergreen were necessary to
the fierce Norsemen, and the
iiotous feasting is handed
down from our Celtic, Anglo
Saxon and Teutonic ancestors.
The custom of decorating the |
Christmas tree with candles is |
of Roman origin. while all the
pagan nations which observed
the festival, including Chinese
Persians and Egyptians, all
decorated their houses with
grccnery.
The name Christmas is of
Christian origin. About 100
years after the death of the
Savior, the celebration of the
anniversary of His birth began
1t was observed by Christians
at various months of the year.
As the pagan nations cmbrac-
cd Christianity, their festival
was made a religious observ-

non so high a place in the
esteem of the house. He has the
Indiana faculty for close calculation.
He is not chummy fellow and for that
reason he may never gain popular
hold on his party, but he is bound to
grow as long as he remains member
of the house and he will become more
and more factor in legislation.
Hemenway will hardly develop into a
floor leader, for he lacks the snap and
pugnacity of a born debater, but he
will always be looked upon as safe.
He, too, is young enough to look for
ward to a career, but his ambition lies
in the direction of the senate or the
governorship of his state. Hemenway
and Overstreet come from adjoining

IN the harness a single session before
he was looked upon by the older men,
bers as an authority on parliamentary
law; and before two congresses had
passed there was nobody else about the
capitol who could compare with him.
Reed himself depended on Kinds alb
solutely. The great speaker was not
much of an adept in the intricacies of
parliamentary law and didn' pretend to
be. He was concerned in reaching re-
suits and having made up mis- mind
what he wanted to do he had a way of
turning to the experts about him for
Information as to how he might do it.
Kinds was always able to find a way
and the speaker never hesitated in fol-
lowing out Kinds suggestions no mat
ter where they might lead.
There has not been a republican
speaker since who has not been even
more dependent on Kinds than Reed
was. When Reed was in the chair he
noticed that whenever the house got
into a parliamentary tangle Kinds
would HE himself to the speakers
room and hurry back with some loose
sheets of paper, upon consulting which
way out was sure to be found. This
had happened several times when it.
aroused Reeds curiosity. He inquired
about it and discovered that his clerk
had spent his spare hours collecting all
the, precedents and decisions of speak
ers from the beginning of the govern
ment-work which nobody had ever
had the intelligent industry to under
take before.
Kinds had drawer full of these pa
pers and as soon as the house leaders
found out about them they passed a
resolution to print them and put them
in permanent form. Kinds book is
now the standard work on parliament

chairman, Of the reorganizedsc committee
on post Offices and post roads. But :their
influence does not arise from their
.chairmanships It arises from their
close personal relations with the
speaker and his confidence in their
jud gment sss
When the speaker came to look over
his committees almost the first thing
that struck him was the necessity Of
completely n reorganizing the postal
committee, the chairman Of which had
failed of reelection and the other mem
bers Of which were almost without ex-
cept1on subject to some failing which
made is inadvisable to put them at the
head of q committee which was des-
tined to handle very knotty and dis
agreeable situation. So he decided to
go outside the committee for, chair
man. He didn't have to look long be-
fore he hit on Overstreet.
Overstreet was secretary of the re-
publican congressional committee last
year when the figures he made before
election were almost exactly verified by
the results. He is mighty goolspoli-
tician, as well as very clean cut fell

Two New York Hotels.


Only two hotels in New York refuse
to keep their register Of guests open
and publicly accessible. These are the
Fifth Avenue and the Waldorf Astoria.
The Fifth Avenue is a favorite resort of
politicians, and its guests sometimes
prefer not to have it known thatsthey
are there. The Waldorf-AstoriaS has
made it's way with leaders in haute
finance, with important and unimpor-
tant persons, diplomats and men like
DR.. Amador and M. Varilla with repub-
lies in their brains. The books are not
accessible to the public; lists of guests
cannot be transcribed. This is not only
intended as-a protection to the guests,
but as protection to the Office stan.
Many business houses send circulars to
tthote1 arrivals when they can get the
names, and at the Waldorf this would
mean each morning the sorting Of some
1,50O additional pieces of mail. The law
only requires that a register shall be ac-
curately kept, SO that the police or au--
thorized officers Of government maycon.

An almost forgotten mystery of the
Austrian Alps has at last been cleared
up Thirteen years ago guide named
Untemsteinen disappeared from Gross
vendiger, and nothing was again heard
of him until few days since, when
his body was found taickly sheathed
in ice. He had evidently fallen into a
crevasse, and the body, forming
around itself an icy casing, had, dur
ing 13 years, followed the movements
of the glacier, being at last recovered
at its lowest extremity, where it
emerged to view.
