CHANGING CHRISTMAS BURDEN
TO REAL CHRISTMAS JOY.

Christmas giving has reached the
point in very many cases with the
custom of exchange gifts where lit
tie sentiment and no love are in
volved that to many Christmas CIV
ing has become not JOY but bur
den. Here and there voice has
been lifted against the hypocrisy and
the desecration of the spirit OF the
great day. This year comes an or
ganized effort in the formation Of
what is termed The Sensible Christ
mas League" to which many people
throughout this country are pledg-
ing themselves. The league simply
proposes a pledge, which its men,
bers in turn make effort to have
others take unto themselves. If 1t
suits you, pass it along to some
one who may be wavering but who
needs just a little encouragement
to fall into the line where his eX-
perience has told him long ago
should have been to avoid heart
DuTuluSS, u4SdppOll I4IlCANS, NA''NC4Ai
forts and inconveniences on the
greatest day of the year when all
should have been JOY and love in his
heart. Here it is:
Il will be brave enough to give
only where love and sympathy and
helpfulness make giving worth
while. l will not turn Christmas
day into a day of barter and ex-
change. l will make those whom I
love and who love me happy, and
bring joy, as far as l am able, to
those who otherwise would have no
joy-to the poor, the lonely, the i'll,
the old, the friendless and the
helpless"
An endless chain is being formed
Of people who are willing to sub
scribe TO this creed. You can start
a little chain all your own and
spread the good that is going to
come.

Democrats Want Tariff Revised
Down Promptly.

Washington, u. c., Dec. 10.-Pow-
erful influences within the Demo-
cratic Party are operating to induce
President-to-be Wilson to call the
extra session of Congress very soon
after the present Congress dies
March 4, instead of waiting until
April as he has indicated.
The Ways and Means Committee
will have it's bill or bills prepared
before March 4. 1t is felt that busi-
ness will be less interrupted if the
Democratic task of putting down the
duty rates is quickly finished. Pend
ing tariff legislation is always de-
moralizing to commerce and indus
try.
Governor Wilson said in an an
nouncement at Princeton soon after
election that he would call Congress
in extra session not later than April
%, but Representative Underwood,
the Democratic leader of the House,
and others in Congressional author
ity, are understood to favor an ear
lier date
The length of the session will
probably not so much depend upon
tariff as upon the other legislation
which may be considered.
While Mr.. Underwood favors hear
ings by the Ways and Means Com
mittee he is not disposed to allow
them to long continue. In all prob
ability they will be ended after
three weeks work. An effort will
be made to hear all persons inter
ested in certain schedules during the
same day.
William ]. Bryan is understood to
favor the prompt passage of the Un-
derwood bills as they stand

ing on the significance of the press

keen observers of the situation are
still disposed to consider Col Bry-
an a possibility as American Am
bassador at the court of st. James.

GETS VERDICT OF $1,000
Mrs. Starbuck, Widow of Henry
Starbuck, Given Verdict by
Jury, in Suit Against Erie.
Mr.. Starbuck Was For
merly of HOnesdale.

The case of Mrs. Ida Starbuck of
Port Jervis, against the Erie Rail-
road to recover for the death of her
husband, Henry Starbuck, who was
killed on the Erie Dec. 4, 1911, was
tried before Justice Tompkins in
Supreme Court at Newburgh, Friday
and resulted in a judgment of ST.
200 for the plaintiff.
Henry Starbuck was so years old
at the time of his death. For 20
years he had worked as a carpenter
and farmer, nine years of that time
for the Erie. He resided in Port
Jeryis. On the morning of Dec. 4,
1911, in company with Foreman
Theodore Durant and two or three
Italian laborers, he left Port Jervis
by train from which he and the 9TH
ers of the party alighted at Harri-
man at about o'clock, walking
thence southwark about a mile and
quarter to culVert bridge that
was being repaired. This bridge
was 10 feet in length, and over it
pass four tracks, the two inermost
tracks being known as the main line
and the others being used as sidings.
The weather that day was bitterly
cold, and the men after working for
a time went to a tool car where a
fire was burning, at which they
warmed themselves. This was at
about II O'Clock. An Erie express
train leaving Jersey City at a.
m, was due to pass the culyert
bridge referred to at that hour, and
the supposition is that Starbuck be-
lieved it had passed. Instead, how
ever, it was 3 minutes late. When
the men returned to the bridge, Star
buck, under the direction of Durant,
went to work on the eastbound
track, the other men working to the
west. Meanwhile a freight train had
drawn up between them. The eX-
press train, still considerably behind
time, came dashing up the line, and
the locomotive struck Starbuck and
killed him.
The claim of the plaintiff was that
the train was then running at the
rate of 55 to 60 miles an hour and
that no bell or whistle was sounded
to give warning of its approach to
Starbuck who was prevented by a
curve in the track from seeing more
than 300 feet south from the point
where he was working. The plain
tiff claims that the company was
negligent in that no warning signal
was given or sounded, and that the
company failed to notify Starbuck
at the approach of the train, the
custom being $50 it is alleged) for
the proper person in such a con-
tingency to keep a lookout for the
safety of the men whose attention
is necessarily taken up with the de-
tails of their work.
The claim was further made for
the plaintiff that Starbuck had a
right TO rely on the express train be-
ing on time or else on receiving
The citizen. (Honesdale, Pa.) 1908-1914, 1912-12-11

warning of its approach when de-
layed. Repairs to the bridge had
been in progress for two or three
weeks, and 1t was known to en-
gineers and others employed in run
ming trains over it as an unsafe
place for the men employed there.
Hence the plaintiff claimed the en-
gineer in charge of the express
trains locomotive should have used
extraordinary precaution there, es-
pecially when he was behind time.
The first witness sworn was Mrs
Ida A. Starbuck, the plaintiff in the
action, who testified that her husband
was in good health up to the time of
his death by accident, and that his
earnings averaged $50 to $50 a
month. The couple had four chill
dren, all adults, two of them are
married, while a son and daughter,
unmarried, reside at home with the
mother. Henry Starbuck was de-
scribed as a man of medium height,
weighing about 10 pounds.
James A. Wiley, civil engineer,
described the condition of the track
and Edwin H. Starbuck and Mr..
Durant, the foreman, gave testi-
mony.
Fred Startup, an employe of I'm
dertaker Fred II. Porter of this city,
testified to the general condition of
the body and the fatal injury in the
right side of the face. His testi-
mony was important for the rail-
road contended that Mr.. Starbuck
was negligent in that he stood be-
tween the rails absorbed by the
other train that was passing. Were
this true, the man would have been
struck in the left side instead of the
right.
The case was given to the jury at
four O'Clock and they reported about
six. The attorneys were Harry S.
Austin, with whom were associated
Samuel L. Sargent of New York and
Judge Seeger of Newburgh for the
plaintiff; and Watts, Oakes e Bright
of Middletown for the defense. The
trial was actually being conducted
for the Erie by Messrs. Oakes &
Bright.-Port Jervis Gazette.

President Taft's message on our
foreign relations which was sub
mitted to Congress Tuesday last is
worth more than usual interest in
view of the unsettled conditions of
Europe caused by the war in the
Balkins. The President calls atten-
tion to what this government is do
ing towards the establishment of
peace and expresses regret that he
has been unable to bring about two
arbitration treaties which set the
highest mark of the aspiration of
nations toward the substitution of
that form of settlement when in
ternational disputes are to be ad-
justed He also comments on the
good offices of the United States in
preventing a war between the South
American republics and the effect of
our counsil in the arranging for the
cessation of hostilities during the
Civil war in China. Another i'm
portant work he mentioned as being
accomplished during the year by the
American diplomatic officers in Eu-
rope is the investigation of the ag-
ricultural credit system in Europe.
The project to establish credit facili-
ties for the farmers is a concern of
vital importance to this country both
as a means to afford relief to the
consumers of this country to a more
thorough development of the agri-
cultural resources and as means of
maintaining the present agricultural
population. mo evidence of pros
perity among well-established farm

lack of capital is preventing a de-
