Christmas Memories.

The happy Christmas time recalls
The days of long ago,
When sleighbells jingled merrily
And all was white with snow.
We rode to school on big bobsleds
When we didn't wade the drifts.
We did not spend billion then
On fancy Christmas gifts.
Bill got boots with copper toes,
Bright red scarf and mittens.
Jake ana got bearsllin caps
That looked like old Tabs kittens.
All the girls got pulse warmers
And home knit hoods and such.
TO fill their wooden stockings
Didn't cost old st. Nick very much.
Our taify was done up in plaits.
For bonbons we boiled sap.
We all sat round the open fire
And made the popcorn snap.
Father got some homespun pants
And mother calico.
The Christmas of We olden tyne
Would now be called too slow
For now the girls want Kohinoors,
The boys buzz cars to wreck,
While mammals want Paris store
And million dollar check.
Poor married men just ask good Kril
Their Christmastide to bless
With quiet lodge where they may hi(
In some vast Wilderness.

CHRISTMAS GREETING.

DT0HE DEMOCRAT extends cordial Christ
mas greeting to each one of its readers.

meet in the desert impressivey teach the lesson of
Christmas Said one of them "The spirit brought
me first, wherefore know myself chosen to be the
servant of my brethren" Then when he had laved
his own hands, he said let take of ourselves,
BRETHREN as service requires, and eat, that
may be strong for what remains of the days duty.
While we eat we will each learn who the others are,
and whence they come, and how they called" 1t
the lesson of Brotherhood which the world needs to
learn; and meeting i'll spirit of true brotherhood
they will meet the Christ, and learn to practice faith,
love, and good works, and thus overcome the selfish

POPE WILL ACT
Is Not Satisfied With Church and
State Separation.


Lisbon, May 15.-A Lisbon news
paper says that according to COM
munication received from the vatican
the pope has concluded an examina-
tion Of the separation law and abso-
lutely condemns 1t, but as it is not to
be enforced until July he will await
that date before expressing his opin.
ion officially in the hope that in the
interim, the unwavering opposition Of
the Portuguese clergy to the law and
their refusal to take stipends may in
duce the provisional government to
alter some of its most stringent
clauses, especially concerning inter-
ference by the government with the
clergy's canonical rights. which Who'll
ly appertain to the church.
1t is reported that in event Of the
actual decree being enforced many
churches will be closed and the
priesthood will be deprived Of all
property and reduced to poverty.
However, it is we'll known in official
circles that the government desires
to avoid rupture with the holy see.
as that would tend to aggravate hos
tility on the part of that section Of
the country. which is almost wholly
Catholic, especially in the north.
against the government in the forth
coming elections.

ton of Labor Had Violated Injunc.
ti0nal Order of Lower Court

Washington, May 15-Setting aside
the sentences Of imprisonment i'm
posed by the supreme court of the
District Of Columbia for alleged dis
obedience Of the boycott injunction,
the supreme court of the United
States today held that Samuel Com
pers, John Mitchell and Frank Nor
rison, president, vice president and
secretary respectively of the American
Federation of Labor had been erron-
eously sentenced to Jail on a charge
of contempt of the local court.
The court unanimously held that
the only sentence that could be i'm
posed upon the labor leaders were
fines. In so holding the supreme
court Of the United States found that
the court Of appeals of the District
Of Columbia and the supreme court
Of the district erred in treating the
contempt proceedings as a criminal
case and not a. civil one.
The effect of holding the proceed
ings civil one was to make to Jail
sentences impossible. Hence the Jail
sentences had to be set aside.
The charges of contempt against
President Gompers, Vice President
Mitchell and Secretary Morrison
arose out Of bitter labor war be-
tween organized labor and the Bucks
Stove and Range company of st.
Louis, Mo.
The St. Louis concern had come in

Of Columbia to prevent, by intunc-
ton, the American Federation of La
