THE HOLIDAY SEASON.

The annual holiday season,
Christmas and New Year, is one OF
the most beneficial and useful insti-
tutions given TO mankind. IL is
during these festal days that the
bcttcrs parts of all civilized people
are brought out, developed and
strengthened. The milk of human
kindness flows more freely and the
nobler elements OF character shine
forth in their most brilliant aspect
at Christmastidc. OF course, in
some cases, in many, in fact, spirit
OF deep sadness and sorrow per-
vadcs. This cannot be helped, but
the feeling of peace on earth and
good will to men" prcdominates.
and we'll that il is so. The lovely
custom Of Christmas tokens is an
other feature that is commendatory
and fruitful OF good While the GUS
tom may seem burdcnsomc in some
cases. yet in most instances II is
productive OF a vast amount OF
good. There are thousands OF ways
by which the annual holiday season
is OF benefit. IL creates in men the
desire to make those about them
happy and more eontented with
their lot. II soitcns feelings OF an.
tagonisms. and strengthens the fra
tcrnal feeling. broadens the broth
crhood Of man. May all of the
readers Of The Review enjoy a
prosperous and happy new year,
aud many returns of the annual fes-
tai season.

THE COLUMBIA RIVER BRIDGE.
What II Means to ST. Johns and the
Peninsula

1t has been definitely settled that
the long-delayed project OF building
a railway bridge across the Colum-
bia river, near Vancouver, is at last
to become a reality. The Northern
Pacific Railway company is bacl;
of the project, but it is also stated
that the Portland Consolidated conf
pany will become a party to the en-
terprise In case the latter company
joins in the scheme, the bridge will
be a double decker, the lower deck
for steam traffic and the upper TO
be used by the electric line and
possibly foot and team traffic.
The spanning of the Columbia
at this point cannot help but be a
big thing for this city and the en-
tire peninsula. Already the con-
gested condition of the railway
yards at Portland is becoming a
serious matter, for both the n. L.
and the O. K. x n. The space now
used is little more than is required
for the accommodation of the local
traffic. and it is well known that for
some time both of these great trans
portation companies have been cast
ing about with the view of getting
more room. The only logical solu-
ton that presents itself is the pen
insula. Here they could acquire all
the space required for stock yards,
docks fronting on deep water, and
all other necessary adjuncts for
handling and transferring their
largely increasing traffic. II is
quite safe to predict that within n
very few years that nearly all, il not
quite all, the outgoing and incoming
ocean freight from and to eastern
points will be loaded and unloaded
along the lower docks OF the port.
Along the water front OF st. Johns
we have the deep water, without
dredging. to accommodate the larg-
est ships that float, and II may be
depended upon that this fact will
not be overlooked when transporta-
ton companies are looking for more
room to handle their big ocean
trade.
The proposed bridge will be COM
mcnced as soon as the necessary
material can be secured. II will
cost between SI.ooo.ooo and So
100000.

houses all close, except the saloons,
billiard halls. cigar stores, restau-
rants and drug stores, the suburbs
excepted. The same state law ap-
plies there as here, but is only en-
forced BY the associations which ex-
ist among the tradesmen, and not
by officers Of the law. A great
many laws on the statute books are
more strictly observed in the breach
than in enforcement. which is due
TO local conditions and demands. OF
course. every citizen will acknowI-
edge that the keeping open Of some
particular places in every town is
a nuisance and menace to the peace
and quiet OF the Sabbath. while
other places are not so regarded. II
the agreement signed by the bust
ness men was signed by desire to
close, and not under threats or coer-
cion. we can see no harm in en-
forcing it. but. on the other hand,
we know of no bad results likely C.
follow if the reform along this line
is interpreted with reasonable
view to expcdiency and public de-
mands.

THE OLD AND THE NEW.

The year just closing has been an
eventful one for ST. Johns. In the
twelve months wonderful advance
ment has been made toward build
ing up a great city, and while in
some respects the odds have been
against us, so far as civic improve
mcnts are concerned But capital
has been attracted and most liber-
ally invested. forming a nucleus Of
manufacturing center the out
come Of which is hard to foretell,
so vast and extensive is il most
likely to be before the close of the
coming year. The total amount
expended on the water front and
throughout the city will reach in
the ncighborhood ol one and half
million dollars. and the population
has increased about tcnfold. The
output Of our mills and factories
cannot be fairly computed, for the
reason that many Of them have just
started up, and few are running 10
anything near their full capacity.
Employment has been given to
about one thousand people. For n
new town. because the new St.
Johns is less than three years old,
this showing is indeed creditable
The year has been a prosperous
one, and the people OF the district
have every reason to feel proud OF
their achievements.
What Of Igos' Basing our fore
cast on what has been accomplished
