HE anonymity that envelopes an E editorial writer was never more
strIkIngly illnstrated than ln thl

strikingly Illustrated than in the career of r. P. Church, who was for many years on the editorial staff of the New York Sun and died few days ago. MT. Church wrote the famous editorial in answer to little girl who asked if there was any Santa Claus. It was al- ways attributed to Charles A Dana, edi- tor of the New York Sun, and was wide- ly quoted. The death of MT. Church has thrown light upon situation that is by no means unusual in the newspaper world, but the wonder is that MT. Dana allowed papers all over the United States to credit the editorial to him without making known the name of it's real author The editorial is master piece. It is a tender and beautiful plea for the perpetuation of that delightful fairyland which bright ems the lives of children and makes old people young again. Santa Claus never had a more charming nor a more eloquent defense.

REBELS ISSUE
A MANIFESTO.
Russian Reds Decide to Hold
Up the InsurrectiOn Troops
on the March.

LONDON. Jan. 2.-St. Petersburg
dispatches say that the revolutionary
societies there have issued Il manifesto
stating that. in view Of the failure of
their risings, they have decided to re-
frain from ordering a general insur-
rection at the beginning of the (Itus-
siam new year, as such n declaration
would be likely to intimidatc the Ill In
formed and timid portion of the popu-
,lation.
The government has declared its in
tention vigorously to repress any prep
aratiohs ,for a rising and in the event
of ;Igeneral insurrection is determined
Immediately to crush it. The inhabit-
ants of st. Petersburg are eXhorted not
TO entertain any fear of an outbreak in
the capital.
1t is learned from a high source II a
Premier White is again strongly urging
the emperor to Immediately promulgate
a Moderate constitution for the double
purpose of ~reassuring the Liberals that
the present war against the reds" does
not mean reaction and blocking the at
tempt which undoubtedly will be made
when the national assembly c%onvenes
tt transform that body into a constitu-
ent assembly. Moreover, the plan has
other heavy backing, and the emperor
is showing an inclination to accept it.
The premier is understood to have in
formed his majesty that such an act
would be a master stroke at the pres
ent juncture and might rally the whole
body of conservative and liberal opin.
ion to the side of the government.
A close friend of the premier ha
predicted that the struggle at court
will end in the granting of a constitu
ton or Whites resignation.
A Mitau report says that four col,
umns of troops, principally cavalry and
artillery, are converging toward Mitau

The insurgents in the towns held by
