Christmas Significance.

What ehall we do for the blinded ewes
Straiiling their gaze afar
Seeing no promise of dawn arise.
Searching in vain for the star?
Dear God. so far in the lifted heavens.
So low in the dust they lie.
To whom no glimpse of the day is given,
No star in their midnight-sky.
The burdened and weary. the sick and
faint.
Who mourn out their despair
Till the still air pulses with their com.
plant.
And the pang of unheeded prayer.
Sweet choir of God of Christmastide

Is the Christ-son born? Has He come tn

A laughable case of absent minded
ness was exemplified at the Eastport
station of the w. c. r., last week. when
a lady. who had laid her months
old baby down on one of the seats in
the waiting room. while she purcha sed
tickets for herself and other three chill
dren enroute for their home at Tunk
Pond, boarded the train with the elder
trio Of her offspring, utterly forgetting
the existence of the helpless infant left
behind until one of the employees or
the road rushed into the car just be-
fore the train started with the waiting
bit Of humanity in his arms, asking
excitedly for its owner. To say that
the thoughtless mother was embar-
rassed. as the laugh went round and
all eyes were turned upon her in pity
and surprise, is putting it mildly.

Tha Christmas Season.

Again the circling seasons bring us
to the Christmas time. the happ'est OF
ALL our holidays and the most sacred
among the holy days revered by man
kind. Throughout the civilized world
and even beyond the pale OF what we
call civilization, this day is observed
as the Oldest of our holidays and the
dav dearest to the greatest number OF
hearts. There are reunions IN the
homes. beautiful rites in the churches'
greetings everywhere. gift-fadeh
Christmas trees. and the hanging OF
the holly and mistletoe. There are the
Christmas bells and the Christmas car

these, the peace and good will In the
hearts of all May it be Merry

The increase in the number of elec-
trio signs in Portland reminds one of
the condition imposed on all applicants
for permits of that class in the city OF
Chicago, where nobody is allowed to
erect a sign unless he agrees to keep il
burning until II O'Clock every night.
Every night in Chicago means seven
nights. since there Is no Sunday
worthy of mention. In Portland Con-
gress street is growing more and more
radiant under the glow of these at
tractive devices. The big one i'm front
Of the Portland theatre leads off. and
there are many smaller ones. The lat
est is some mysterious mechanism
which tells a story hundred words, or
so. long about the store over which it
is erected. Electrically lighted letters
spell out long and short words without
a break for good many minutes.

No feature Of the Christmas season
is more prominent or adds more TO us
good cheer than the exchange OF gifts.
It is an old. old custom. and the tokens
of love and friendship exchanged are
In syrnbolIsm OF the peace and gooh
will whose message the angels sang 70
the shepherds that watched their fiocks
nv night. The question Of Christmas
giving involves many things. Cynics
and pessimists use it As n text against
extrayaRance and waste OF time anh
energy, but their attacks upon the
custom avail nothing and are little
needed. There are certain different
kinds Of enthusiasm which belong to
different anniversaries. and which no
pessimistic effort can subdue. Occa-
sionally the meaning of these obser-
vances dies out. and then the celebra-
tiOns grow fainter and gradually dis
appear. But more often years
strengthen the desire to continue the
time honored custom. and the feeling
which first gave 1t vitality rather in
creases than diminishes. When this is
the case any efforts to anta8onize 1t.
or even. indeed to criticise it. will meet
either with indifference or displeasure.
Such Is certainly the only treatment
that would be given to one who should
endeavor to put down the good OLD
custom of Christmas gifts, which, in
stead of showing the slightest tendency
to wane. gains a firner hold upon the
civilized world an each year brings
around the welcome season.
1t is. indeed. Il loving and gracious
usage. and Well deserves our profound
respect and loyal adherence. 1t is pre-
eminently an opportunity for the out
let of generous feelings and kindly
sympathy. More than at any other
time are seliishness. meanness and
avarice at discount. The Very at
mosphere seems charged with good
will. and the desire to please some one
else than ones self is uppermost in al
most every breast. This element ir
the gift season is one which VIII in
sure it's perrnanence. We can never
afford to lose SO favorable an occasion
for the expression of benevOlence and
the cultivation of br otherly love.

II is a fortunate thing for the vitality
of the Christmas spirit that We have
the poor with us always. Ii all were
in comfortable circumstances. so that
there could be no suffering for materi-
al things the heart would be taken out
of our Christmas literature. TO read
Christmas story in which there is not
a poor family or individual who is res
cued at the critical moment.-which
happily occurs OH Christmas day.-by
the benevolent rich, would be an anom-
ally. So essential to Christmas is need.
one Is quite moved to thank God for
poverty which gives the worlds great
est blessing.-opportunit What a sad
Christmas II would be il there were
none to give to. We can get along
very well il we do not receive; but not
man. 1t may be that the best gift We
give Is when we receive. II it is true
that it is more blessed to give than to
receive. that is. there is more joy In
! giving. then the opposite is true: that
II is more blessed to receive than to
give. for in receiving We have given to
the giver the greatest JOY.
OF all times in the year. Christmas
belongs to the children. This is emil
nently fitting since our celebration Of
the day is based upon the simple and
deathless story Il the Christ Child
born in lowly stable, And Of all the
traditions ands assends that cluster
around the day, thare Is none more
widely cherished thai that of Santa
Claus and his reind( team. bringing
out Of the mysteriodl North loads OF
toys and good things fo{l The little ones.
How precious to chiidhoodNts that faith
In old Santa, and how sad the day
h when the disillusion comes. There are
those iconoclasts who would shatter
this innocent and beautiful faith OF
childhood. holding that 1t is wrpng to
allow little children to have such ideas
in their heads and hearts. Such Npeo-
! pie should be In better business. The

NEWSPAPER MAN INDICTED.
Grand Jury at Minot indicts the Late
Editor Zimmerman of the Outic.

Forum: An Indictment was return
ed yesterday by the Ward county
grand jury against E. L. Zimmerman
on a charge of criminal libel. The
charge was the result of a bitter fac
tional political fight prior to the Nov
ember election. Mr. Zimmerman was
at that time editor of The Minot Optic
Soon after the appearance in The
Optic of an article attacking County.
Auditor L. A. Larson, Mr.. Zimmerman
was arrested and released on $500
bonds. About that time he sold the
Minot paper and accepted a position
with The Call, in this city. 1t was
not expected that the criminal charge
against him would be prosecuted after
the severance of his connection with
The Optic and the indictment came as
a surprise.
Mr.. Zimmerman will leave for Minot
tonight.

THE GOVERNORS SECRETARY.

Governor Sarles announces the Sc
lection of James w. Foley of the Bis
marck Tribune, as his private secre-
tary. The appointment was entirely
unexpected and of course unsolicited.
This is recognition of one of the
cieverest and most popular newspaper
men in the state and is a manifesta-
ton of confidence worthily bestowed.
1t is no way recognition of the Bis
marck Tribune on the part Of the new
executive but rather a tribute to the
personality of bright young journalist
who has improved his opportunities
and made success of his chosen pro-
fession. Versatile, Discreet, courteous,
affable, and diplomatic. Mr.. Foley, a
graduate of the Bismarck schools, has
forged to the front and made an envi-
able reputation inseparable from the
Tribune broader in extent. The
Tribune is glad of this opportunity to-
testify to the worth and ability of one
of its faithful attaches, and in this
connection it may be proper to add
that his connection with the Tribune
is only partially and temporarily
severed. Proud of his capabilities and
conscious of the diplomatic relations
he ROW assumes, as secretary to the
governor, the Tribune congratulates
the new executive on the excellence Of
his choice and the newspaper fraterni-
ty generally will commend his judg-
ment. It isn't often the excuse or OBJ
portunity Is given the Tribune to com
pliment members of it's own force
and it grasps this opportunity with a
pleasure equalled only by an apprecia-
ton of the fitness of the appointment.

is essential to a recovery in all actions
for defamation. When a defamatory
charge is made upon an unprivileged
occasion, the law implies malice for
the purpose of sustaining the action
and the recovery of compensatory
damages, but when the occasion is
privileged, the publication is presumed
to have been made in good faith and
the burden is on the plaintiff to prove
that it was made with actual malice.
10. For the purpose of showing
actual malice in publishing libel, the
plaintiff may prove that prior to the
commencement Of the action defend
ant published the same words or SINH
lar words relating to the same subject
matter and imputing the same general
charge as that sued upon, but may not
introduce evidence which merely tends
to show general malice, or to show the
publication Of distinct calumny.
II. The testimony of a witness in
a judicial proceeding, which is peril
nent to the issues, can not be made the
subject of an action for defamation.
The occasion is privileged and the ex-
emption of the witness for liability for
his words is absolute.
H.. The occasion being privileged
the law presumes that the statements
of the witness are made in good faith
and without malice.
ID. "As bearing upon the question
Of the malice of the defendant in
publishing the libel" which is the sub
ject Of this action, the plaintiff intro
duced In evidence at the trial of this
case, over defendants objection. a
certain affidavit which the defendant
had previously made in proceeding in
this court, the substance of which is
set forth in the opinion. Held error
for two reasons: (D The statements
contained in it do not relate to the sub
ject matter Of the alleged libel.
(2) Having been made upon a privi-
legged occasion they are presumed to
have been made in good faith. Further,
its admission was highly prejudical,
for which new trial must be granted
IA. The falsity of defamatory
charge is always presumed and the de-
PENDANT who relies upon the truth as
a defense must plead it, and this is
true as to defamatory statements
made upon privileged occasions.
