Why Gov Harmon dis not interpose

known that week befoiS the state con-
vention ii was all arr&,ged that he
should he dropped and tat II. r. Torpy.
now president Of the bot. d of mana gers
OF the penitentiary, should he gwen the
nomination.
The governor had a telling campaign
argument in the story Of graft disclosure
last winter. and since thgl he has added
to ii by exposing something very much
Ike it which he has SAGE brought to
light in the state canal department.: but,
as can readily be seen. ine effectiveness
OF his work the stum-. is largely de-
stroyed by the fact that he has on the
ticket with him one who is declared to
be guilty of the same tf,ings he is de-
nouncing in others and whose election he
is urging.
Another thing that is causing the demo-
cratic leaders TO fear TIL result of the
election is that there SIRE indications
everywhere that the sociaSist vote in the
state will be tremendously increas ed this
only about "'.0oO votes. but this year
they are claiming at least 5000 votes,
and the surface indica lions bear this out
In one precinct in Colunsbus-a precinct
in which mary shopwork rs live-a poll
shows more socialist votes now than re-
publican and democratic votes together.
That particular precinct gave Harris, re-
publican. for governor swo years ago
ffty-eight ma jority. but, On the whole, in
this state when minor party has shown
marked increase in strength it has al
ways been at the expense of the demo-
cratic vote.
Afraid of Liquor Interests.
Another point concerning which the
democratic leaders feel useasy is the at
titude OF the liquor interests. On the sur
face the temperance question is not an is
sue at all The Anti-Sssoon League Is
taking no part in the campaign. Two
years ago the liquor interests were very
active in sport of Gov Harmon. But
that was because they VIZ nted Harris de-

they have gained anything through the
administration of Gov. Harmon.

selected very appropriate Christmas
card. 1t represented a mother holding
child close to her breast, and was
painted in very light tones. Little
angels, with their wings tucked under
their chins, lowered about the mother
and child.
Members OF royalty, it is claimed,
first started the idea Of sending
Christmas cards to their friends.
Since that time the idea has been
taken up in this country with good re-
suit. In many cases it does away with
the sending OF expensive, useless
presents, that are forgotten within a
short time by both the sender and re-
ceiver. A Christmas card is a thing
that can be saved, framed and treas
ured for years, especially when the
design is good one.
Postal authorities in Washington say
they have made arrangements to
handle a large number of, Christmas
cards this year; but they give warn
ing to senders that tinsel and glass
postals will not be sent farther than
the receiving station.

there was no suspicion until the
wretched victims of it's avarice bleated
forth the tale of the cruel wrong that
had been done them.
Among the fifteen contraband Chi
nese captured by customs inspectors
seven are girls. The youngest is IA,
the oldest 20. One Of them is frankly
slave girl, and on that ground was
deported from here about a year ago.
The others, the immigration officials
say they have good reason to believe,
are girls from respectable homes
where six almond eyed mothers are
even now grieving over their disap-
pearance.
All but one of the seven were kid
mapped in Hongkong more than a
month ago. They we're taken by
night aboard the ship. One of them
was unconscious at the time from the
narcotic that had been administered
by the agent of the ring. They were
shut all together in the liners hold in
locker about fourteen feet square
In this room there was no light, ma
tural or artificial, little ventilation
and no conveniences. They never left
this prison for an instant from the
night they were shut in at Hongkong

Sending Christmas Cards

y "
With the increase in popularity Of
the picture postal card, the Christmas
card has also gained many friends. and
1t is estimated that a million cards OF
this nature viii be exchanged In
America this year Some of the new
Christmas cards are really works Of
art, beautiful in the extreme and de-
lightful to look upon. The attraction
of the Christmas card may be ascribed
in this country to the popularity of
the picture postal card on the whole,
but they are by no means new idea.
The older countries have been sending
Christmas cards for centuries, and
even royalty has been inbued with the
novelty OF using the mails as a means
of conveying good will and best wishes
to their friends at Yuletide.
+ About twenty years ago this Christ
mas the hosts of the late Queen Vic
torias friends received dainty little
cards containing the greetings of her
majesty. These cards, dainty little ex-
temples Of art that they were, were
designed and prepared by the late Bap-
hazel Tuck. The designs were first sub
designed to her majesty, VINO, after
to be sent to her many friends. But
four years later Queen Victoria's idea
of remembering her friends at Christ
mas was decided upon as very sem
sible method of procedure, and the
late King Edward adopted the method
of his mother. Now King George has
also taken up the idea, and has al
ready mailed thousands of Christmas
cards to his intimate friends.
Since Victoria the idea Of sending
postal cards has become a custom with
royalty, and cards have been especial
ly designed for the Emperor of Ger
many the Gar and Czarina of Russia
the King and Queen of Italy and the
King and Queen of Spain. King Man
uel, in exile, will also send thousands
of postals to his loyal friends in Portu-
gal, although he is staying in England.
Each year a group of carefully and
artistic executed designs are sent to
each of the aforementioned rulers
and in order that the final one chosen
in each case may be somewhat repre-
sentative of the personal taste of the
sovereign they are sent in plenty of
| time for the selection to be made
For example, the Christmas card of
the English sovereign last year had a
dignity which is symbolic of the ma
ton. The card represents scene in
King Arthurs court at the palace of
Camelot. A large party of lords,
knights and ladies are gathered to-
gether to witness the ceremony Of
King Arthur admitting Sir Tristram to
| the fellowship of the Round Table. Sir
Lancelot is prominent figure in the
picture, and his white charger also has
a place. The original painting was
done by prominent English artist,
and critics claim the work makes one
of the prettiest Christmas cards that
can be imagined
| The Christmas card of the little
Prince of Wales represented Alfred
the Great reading to his mother,
Queen Osborga. The German Emper-
or's Christmas card was also very APP
propriate. 1t represented Henry VII.

Over 100000 Christmas trees sup
piled the demand for celebrations in
the homes last Yuletide, and an even
greater number will be used this year.
For those who make Christmas an
event In the home and who cannot
have a real large tree, there is the
little artificial tree on the market that
may be set on the window sill or used
as a centerpiece for the Christmas
table.
Decorations for the Christmas table
are easy to achieve with the markets
flooded with holly and mistletoe and
the stores offering all sorts of Christ
massey favors. A little Christmas tree
in the center of the table or a small
figure Of Father Christmas encircled
by a wreath Of holly laid fiat on the
table is as pretty as can be imagined
though holly may be replaced by other
green's or the scarlet poinsettias If de-
sired. When dinner is served late in
the Afternoon of Christmas, candles can
be lighted, giving a pretty effect to the
table.
The most effective candles are those
of the cathedral variety. These can
be used on the dining room mantel OF
sideboard, but their use calls for tall
candlestfcks. Nowadays holly wreaths
are often hung outside the windows,
where they keep fresher than when
they are placed inside. A tree for the
birds on tn outside Of the dining
room window is also a pretty idea 1t
should be trimmed with pieces Of suet,
tiny baskets Of grain, little red apples
Of cd trt r. No
The table should be set with canapes,
bouohees or cocktails. or whatever is
designed for the first course, on the
plates before the guests are asked out
to dinner.
An oyster roast in the kitchen makes
jolly finish to the day, especially If
the cook has gone out and the family
are left to find for themselves. For
the young people the simplest way of
roasting and serving the oysters is
best. Wash the shells and then throw
them by the dozen into the open fire.
When they open they are done. Armed
with a pair of tongs, let the chef pro
tenn. take them out into q large pan.
From this central dish each one can
remove his own, seasoning the oyster
in it's own juice with butter, pepper,
salt, catsup, horsersdish or lemon
juice, which should all be at hand for
varying tastes, Eat with whole wheat
bread or oatmeal, bread and butter,
celery and pickles. II preferred, the
feast can be concluded with popcorn
popped over the glowing Goals and
eaten hot from the pepper with sweet
cider, nuts and fruit.
Suggestions for new CONNECTIONS, par
ticularly at Christmas time, are al
ways welcomed. Now that grape fruit
appears so frequently on the breakfast
or luncheon table, one can soon save
enough skins to make a candy that is
worth while. Take the Feelings from
FIVE grape fruit and after removing the
hardest Of the white pulp, allow the
skins to stand in a light brine over
night. Drain in the morning, cut in
neat pieces and put over the fire in

CHARGES WERE UNJUST

Accusations have been brought
against H. II. Thue, postmaster at
Horace that he had some mail changed
from Wild Rice to the Horace rural
route without request from the owners
and even. without their knowledge.
Investigation discloses the fact that
one of the subscribers to The Forum
furnished the list of the patrons he
thought would be benefited by such a
transfer of address, and Mr.. Thue had
no knowledge of the same. The change
was made with the best of intent but
owing to other complications was not
thoroughly understood, and resulted in
charges to the department which were
unjust to Mr.. Thue.
