New York stock Market.

Wall St, New York, Dec. 9.-STOCKS-
The decision of the United States circuit
court in Pennsylvania in the case of the
Temple Iron company declaring the cor
poration illegal but otherwise sustaining
the rights of the coal companies which
control 1t, was evidently favorably con-
strued in Wall street today. Opening
prices, particularly of the coal carrying
roads showed substantial advances, Lee
high Valley advancing 2s4 and Reading pa
in the early transactions. Elsewhere in
the list gains ranged from point to ma
teriaI fractions fairly heavy trading.
About a score of stocks including Union

cffic New York Central, Rock Island
Erie United States Steel and American
Smelling moved up l to IL before there
was enough stock dumped on the market
to drive prices back st. Louis Southwest

the cut in the dividend, but Missouri Pa

Pacific point
A close study of the points involved in
the Temple Iron decision seemed to lead
to the conclusion that the outcome was
not wholly favorable to the railroads.
Although it is true that the holdings of
these companies on the percentage basis
of production are not affected, it is pos
sibie that no little ingenuity may have
to be exercised to find some method of
coal distributions. The market became
dull in the second hour but great activity

demand there with larger offers pressing
from Manitoba and the Argentine. on
the other hand, there were continued
rams IN France and the conditions for the
winter crop in this country were unim-

covering the entire range of the market,
touched S6MQ96ssc and declined to CSC.

Garden Citv. Dec. 9

Dear Santa Claus: 1 really do not
know why [ am writing you this
Christmas at all. for my cup runneth
over, but it seems to be a habit to
send you some word at Christmas time
so 1 will let you know that 1 am in
good health and hope you are the
same. I have jumped from the job
of substitute house manager of two
years ago to be the real boss of the
senate. I have my little hammer and
high backed chair and all the drapery
and fringes of power. I have a play
house of my own back of the senate
chamber and a real jailer and mes
senger boy and a deputy sheriff and
a typewriter and / ought to have the
bulliest time that any boy ever had
since Noah's three boys played with
all the tame animals in the ark. But
me thinks I see a cloud no bigger than
a mans hand on the January horizon.
My principles are right, but the prin-
ciples of the boys who will sit in front
of me next month are not all that
could be desired. There are heretics
among them, and mutineers, and
much stubbornness and pride. I wish
you would bring me Calling gun and
Foxs Book of the Life of Martyrs. I
may need them both, the first for pro-
lection, the last for contemplation. I
hope you have pleasant weather and
a fair journey Christmas eve. It may
be that you will have In stock and
can bring a substitute for the presents
I asked for; if SO, I will trust your
judgment on what I need to make me
happy now that you know something
of my hopes and fears for the near
future. Yours truly,
DICKIE HOPKINS.

POLITICAL GOSSIP.
Republican State Campaign Cost
Given Out.
Amounts to Eight Thousand
Five Hundred Dollars.

Most Of Money Furnished by the
Candidates.
One Hundred Dollars Largest
Sum in One Lump.
WHERE 1T CAME FROM,

According to the staten ent filed with
the, clerk of Shawnee county by J.. N.
Dolley, chairman of the Republican
state committee, the Republican cam
paign of last fall cost $s.525.34 The
sum of $1O,028.42 was collected for the
campaign, so $1503.O8 remains in the
committee treasury unexpended. A
few small bills may yet come in to re-
duce this sum, but over one thousand
dollars will remain on nand to form a
nucleus for another campaign.
Time was when a campaign cost two,
three, four and six times the sum spent
this year. The old order changeth.
The publication of cam paign expenses
and receipts made a difference. 1t
does not cost so much now to save the
party and the state. The chief ex-
pense of a campaign conducted under
the new system is postage and Office
help and travelling expenses for speak
ers. The printing bill also runs up
pretty high. The contributions are
most of them from candidates and
range from SIS to $1OO The old slush
So, 900 contributions from an individual

Dear Santa Claus:-This is going to

but you. can make it a whole lot easier
if you only will. I wish you would
bring me pandora box. 1 will soon
need this box in my business as audi
tor and member of the new executive
council I have dozen applications
for each appointment with which 1 have
anything to do. With a magic box on
the Christmas tree for me I can dig
out of it job for every applicant,
! otherwise I may be hung from the
branches of my own Christmas tree by
the mob. I ask for nothing else as I
can get all I want from this box. Dur
ing the late summer. with the shadow
of the Maine election hanging over my
hopes and ambitions, I did all the fret
ting for don't worry club. Then last
month came the good news from the
polling places, and I was the happiest
boy on the Kaw river. But now is the
winter of my discomfort at hand and
unless you come in on the last lap with
that Pandora thing, I am lost. I hope
you will remember me in this one mod
est request. Yours truly,
