The San Juan islander. [volume] (Friday Harbor, Wash.) 1898-1914, 1903-12-24

1t is said that Christmas was at one
time quite a movable feast and kept
when the weather and circumstances
permitted and that one of the early
popes fixed on December 25. Gradually
the custom of singing canticles and
carols was introduced by the church in
remembrance of those songs of the
heavenly host that amazed the shep-
herds on the Galilean Mills and sent
them off in hot haste to End the Won
drous babe. The holly and mistletoe
decorations, of course, descended from
the Druids, and u pretty fancy reigneo
which suggested that the sylvan spirits
would be induced to follow the ever
green branches into house and church
and remain there, sheltered from the
utmost rigor of winter frosts and SHOWS
Then the Yule log was lit on Christ
mas eve and the fire never allowed to
90 out before Candlemas, device for
securing warmth during the coldest
weeks, while people sat around the
hearth and amused themselves with

and forfeits and quaffed spiced ale and
punch, much as their descendants

Mstletoe was sacred because its ber-
ries grow in clusters of three-emblem-
attic of the Trinity. They used to hang
bits around their necks as a safeguard
against witches, but in modern times
it leads up toward witches of more
attractive kind. The maid that was
not caught and kissed under the mis-
tletoe at Christmas would not be mar
rled within the year, so the tradition
goes. According to the old rules the
ceremony is not properly performed
unless berry was pulled off after each
kiss and presented to the maiden.
When all the berries were gone the
privilege ceased.

Ortega commenced to speak neverthe-
less and after a few momnts, Cristoval
SANCHEZ demanded that the half min
ute rule be enforced on him. The
speaker replied that he did not have
his watch out and that he might speak
for q short time longer. The bill was
then passed with Messrs. Ortega, San
doval, Bowie and the speaker voting
against il. A motion was made to ad-
journ. but it was voted down and then
the vote on the former bill was moved
to be r~econsidered and the motion
tabled.
David MARTINEZ moved to adjourn
and Mr.. Ortega said he desired to
amend when Martin Sanchez leaped to
his feet and moved that a committee
of three be named to escort Mr.. Ortega
to the insane asylum. There was a
howl of laughter. The judiciary com
mittee reported a large number of bills
and at 5:45 the house adjourned.

a crop Of apples will remove for the
fruit from a single acre 10 pounds
of nitrogen, one pound OF pnosphoiic
acid and 10 pounds of potash. The

strands in a vice like grip as the spin
ming progresses. The evolution from
the raw wool to the looms is most in
teresting. At the east end of the room
are ten large looms, which ave not
yet been put in active operation. How
ever, they will be weaving cloth in at
least two weeks. 1t requires some
time to spin enough yard to keep the
looms running all the time. A number
of cloth weavers are expected from
the east in a short time. and as soon as
they arrive the looms will be put in OPP
Grafton. To try the looms one piece of
cloth was woven yesterday, n 1t is
viewed with great pride by the firm, as
it has a historical bearing-the first
cloth produced in the territory, from
material grown in New Mexico. 1t will
be only a short time until the weaving
of fancy c~assimeres, dress goods, blan-
kets and clothing will be carried on
day after day. The people of New
Mexico will nave an opportunity to see
the wonderful production of cloth and
clothing right at home.

GAINED ALL OF HIS
FELLOW1-SENATORS
Happy Address Made by Mir.
Graham Clayton, Of
Bedford.

The members and employees OF the state
Senate were yesterday the recipients Of
hickory canes presented by Messrs. sgd
nor & Hundley. Tho presentation OF these
canes in the Senate was made by Hon.
Graham Clayton. Of Bedford. In one Of
the wittiest and happiest speeches of the
kind made at this session. He made some
very enjoyable hits in pure pleasantly It
his fellow members all Of which We're re-
ceived with laughter and applause.
Mr.. Clayton stated In the beginning
that he now had an opportunity of can
Ing those of his fellow-members who had
antagonzed his bills and made him the
target for the merrment Of his fellow
senators occasionally. he would cane the
gentleman from Orange because he sell
dom looked pleased except when he (the
speaker) had voted for one of his meas
ures. Colonel Willard, the presiding Of
hcer should have two canes for the rea-y
son that It was currently reported that he
aspired to rise higher than his present
Office. If he found that two were not
needed he might give one to some Of
his friends. s', ,ss {.
Colonel Button. the efficient clerk. was
now getting old and was Sill q bachelor
starting down the hill Of life. He would
need cane to lean upon In his descent
The sergeant-at-arms and the doorkeep-
err needed good, stout sticks for they la
bored hard to keep order in these clos
Ing days and showed signs of fatigue.
Furthermore. they had no free passes,
had spent all their money and would
have to walk home and SO would find
cane very helpful. Tho senator from Hal
flax would need one to protect him from
the wrath of his constituents when he got
home for he had made SO many speech
es that he had not given his fellow-nem-
bers chance Mr. Gunter he would
cane because though q new member he
had talked necessarily, monopolizlng the
attention of the Senate.
This sally provoked great laughter for
the reason that Mr.. Gunter has thus far
had nothing TO say, except to vote when
his name was called. In this way the
Bedford senator made happy hits at
many Of the senator's. For an extempo-
raneous bit of speaking, II could hardly
have been happier. and the speaker was
warmly con,pllmented.
