The Christmas Season.

Ehe alleged ] japanese young man who

moved to offer the citizens Of this
Christian nation some advice Oh how
to observe the Christmas season.
He would have us abolish the Santa
Claus fiction because George Washing
ton abhorred lie and Mr.. Roosevelt at
least abhors liar. We should do away
with the Christmas tree and it's lighted
candles In order to save work for the
lire department. We should try and
stay as sober on Christmas day as on
other days. And we shouldn't eat our
selves sick. Also, speaking figuratively,
we ought not to give camel as q
Christmas gift to somebody who is not
able to feed him.
& Assto Santa Claus, nobody has had
the nerve to deny his existence since
Mr.. Dana published his; celebrated
sereea and when We
have got to the poiat where we set q
perfect example to- sSur children in all
other matters Il wlll Then be time
enough 70 abolish Santa Claus. Even
the president might admit chat some
|sfbs, like some trusts, are beneficent Or
az least harmless but in the matter
of Christmas indulgence the heather
Jap has reason on his side, a great

CITIZENS FOR A NEW NAME.
Change Title of Former Fairfield
Township.

Fairfield, March 19.--Center town
ship is the name of the part of Fair
field township lying outside the city
limits which was made separate
township by the board of supervisors

meeting of the citizens of the new
township at the court house. Inter
urban" and Plum Grove" We're two
other names suggested for the town

some desired separation from Fair

be forced to pay taxes on improve
lnents in the city.
