Here as elsewhere you will find the
same underlying grievance in those most
earnest in their endeavors to destroy the
Republican party. This one failed to
get a nomination for Governor, for Con-
gress, for the legislature, iudgeship, a
seat in the Governors Council, etc.
MANY had been honored in the past, per-
haps beyond their deserts, had fed at the
public crib until they felt that they
should be lifelong pensioners, and now
they are seeking the oaves and fishes
through a new party.

We doubt if any considerable number
of citizens will approve of the proposed
plan for housing all the city schools in
one building on schoolhouse common.
Certainly, no parents who have children
in the primary schools would sanction it,
and it is indefensible from any unpred-
JUDGED standpoint. The common is none
too large for present needs; the bringing
of so many pupils together, including
the v-ry young. is not advisable. Such a
plan if proposed in any place in the coun-
try the size of Belfast would be con-
demned off hand. We do not believe the
Peirce bequest can be used for such a
purpose.

Santa Claus, knew Of girls and boys
Who don't have hardly any toys;
Who have not clothes to keep them warm.
Whose poor tired mothers work long and hard
For one little gift with Christmas card
While you go merrily jingling by
With your reindeer sledge-Now tell me why
You go to the children who have enough
And give to them such lot of stuff?
Children know Of wait, wistful eyed,
On Christmas eve, to hear you ride,
Over the roof with halloo and shout
Santa Claus! Santa Claus! What are you about?
Santa Claus if you want me to tell YOU true
I'll say that now have'small use for YOU
When was child and heard you go
Jinging your bells across the snow
Then you were jolly and good and wise,
With rosy, red cheeks. and twlnkling BRIGHT
eyes
And then, Santa Claus, l have no doubt
You sought all the poor little children out
And filled each stocking full to the brim.
Ana each child had what was best for him;
But since those days you've grown too fat;
You're bloated old toady aristocrat,
And one of these days you'll have the gout-
Santa Claus! Santa Claus! What are YOU about?
Why don't you go where the snow is deep
on country roads, where children sleep
In the old farm houses with sloping roofs,
And wake and list for the reindeer hoofs?
Why don't you go to those girls and bows
In the sad city streets who have no toys
Nor clothes enough to keep them warm
Nor shoes to wear IN a cold snow storm
And fill their stockings full of the stuff
You give to those children who have enoupb9
All! then Santa Claus I'd believe in YOU
And love you again as | used to do
And the sad old world would be finding out
It's the Fathers own business that you're about,

The passing of such an exemplary person as
Everett W. Emerton deserves special mention
and brief review of his life should claim our
thoughtful consideration. He was born in
Bucksport, Maine, sixty-ive years ago, resid-
ing there practically all his life, being the son
of Amasa S. and Ann (Jacksonl Emerton.
He is survived by two sisters, Mrs. Augusta
Triggs and Mrs. George E. Buck, both of Bel
fast. 1t has been well said of Mr.. Emerton
that che walked humbly and truly with God,
and dealt justly and kindly with men," This
mirrored the character of the man, and more
fitting tribute to worth could not be paid to
any one. Forbearing, courteous and kindly, he
will long be remembered for deeds which were
always right as he saw the right. more than
this need not be said, less than this could not
be sad" Mr.. Emerton died in Belfast Dec 8,
1912 The funeral services were held in Bucks
port, Dec 10th, and were attended by large
number of relatives and friends.

SESSIONS AT NIGHT
LIKELY In SENATE
Some Members Of Body Are In
sisting Upon Longer Meetings
To Expedite Matters.

Night sessions of the Senate are
likely unless some signs of early ad-
journment Of the session appear soon.
Senators are getting impatient Of
the delay in adourning. but in the
absence of any leadership in the
Senate, things are running in go-as-
you-please fashion!
A number of Senators, including
Bailey, Cummins, Borah. Smoot, Bran
degee and others demanded longer
sessions yesterday and greater expe-
dition in handling business.
Senator Bailey objected to meeting
at 10 o'clock in the morning. He de-
clared the Senate chamber was built
on the plan of a jail so far as ventila-
tion is concerned" and that every
Senator would be a sufferer from
headache before the daily session was
ended II the sessions opened at 10
o'clock.

CIRCULARS TO ASK
ARREST OF BOGUS
DRAFT OPERATOR
Police Seek T. ]. Mowery,
Accused of Swindling
Realty Firm Here.

Thousands Of descriptive circulars
requesting the arrest of T. j. Mowrey,
one OF the most notorious bogus draft
Operators In the country. wanted on
a charge Of obtaining $1,000 from the
real estate firm of Boss g. Phelps by
means OF worthless draft, will be
sent out by the police tomorrow The
circulars are now In the hands of the
printers.
Mowery, known also under a half
dozen aliases. obtained $4,000 in De-
troit and $4,000 In Seattle by similar
operations, according to the records
OF tile American Bankers Association.
Persons connected with the real es-
tate firm and the bank that cashed
the checks in this city have idcnti-
fed pictures of Mowery as those of
thu swindler. The police are confident
that Mowery, who was paroled from
a Colorado prison last April, ls the
man wanted here.
The fact that Mowery was taken in
custody after he operated in Denver
and Seattle gives the police hope that
he Will be apprehended here. His
reputation Is that of one of the most
accomplished worthless paper opera
tors in the world, but in previous
cases his getaway has resembled the
work Of an amateur.
The fact that II was several days
before the swindler's Identity was
known gave him a good lead on the
police, and detectives working on the
case have advanced the theory that
Mowery has left the country.
