Balla dOf Christmas Buying
Chicago News.l

lChlcagO NeWS.)
Don't say you don't know what to get
It's such foolish thing to say,
There is no need for you to fret,
With such a glittering array,
At any price you want to pay.
AS through department stores yov
drift,
You'll see them in profusion gay.
You soon may pick a Christmas
gift
Well, how about toilet set?
What's wrong with bedroom slip
pers pray?
A holder for cigarette,
A fountain pen, lacquered tray,
A dressing gown in blue or gray,
A silver shaker, salt to sift?
Be finicky. as e'er you may,
You soon may pick Christmas
gift
Then buy rainproof crayanette
The money won't be thrown away,
The seasons likely to be wet
And spring at least will come some
day.
Gloves. handkerchiefs-the women
Still cling to these, whate'er they
shift,
And always there's a grand display,
You soon may pick a Christmas
gift.
LENVOI.
Get busy, then. without delay,
Throw to the winds all thoughts OF
thrift,
You'll see, as through the stores you
stray,
You soon may pick a Christmas
gift

DEMOCRATIC PARTY FAR FROM
DEAD.

national political party that in
the face of the desertions that were
brought about by the peculiar condi-
tions of the past twelve years pol1ed
nearly six and a half million votes
last month is very, very far from be-
ing moribund political organization.
Especially is this so when glance
backward reveals the fact that the
actual vote cast for its candidate,
despite the opposition to him in bust
ness circles throughout the country,
exceeded by over eight hundred thou
sand votes that cast for its last sue
1t is a fact not to be overlooked or
ignored that Bryan. in 1908, received
eight hundred thousand more votes
than Cleveland received when he was
elected for the second time in 1892,
At that time Cleveland received the
support of the mugwump Republic
cans, so it is a safe assertion that
Bryan's straight Democratic vote
exceeded that cast at that time for
Cleveland by fully a million. This
does not imply death, or even stagna-
ton. 1t shows a continuance of faith
and reliance in the grand old party
OF the people that should nerve its
best leaders and wisest followers TO
renewed efforts to throw off policies
that are not distinctly Democratic, to
shake off parasites wherever they may
have glued themselves on to the par
ty, to insure a platform four years
hence that will rally the entire party
around it, with a candidate leading
who will not be subject to the accusa-
ton of having fostered and encourag-
ed all sorts of wild vagaries in finance
and administrative policies.
As a matter of interest to our
readers we give below the popular
vote for both parties in the last nine
presidential elections.
Thirty-two years ago Tilden receiv-
ed 4.2S4,SS5 votes. Last month

than Tilden did. But once in the his
tory of the Democratic party has il
polled a larger popular vote than this
year and that was when Bryan made
his first run against Mckinley, twelve
years ago. At that time Bryan re.
ceived 1O9,743 votes more than this
time.
The fact that this year the Demo
cratic party polled over one million
three hundred thousand votes more
than it did four years ago, attestet
that it is neither a dying nor a dead
party.
But here are the figures that oul
readers may study for themselves
and reach their own conclusions as
to whether Democracy is defunct, OIL
whether it has it in the germs of flu
ture vast usefulness to the people

The Americas postofice is getting

be published in due time regarding
the transmission of holiday packages

here, covering the case entirely, is to
tie up the package strongly, putting
no writing therein, address it plain
