something to give the being to whom
she gave life TO make 1t remember
this one day of days. No matter how
hardened the criminal, how lost the
sinner, Christmas at his mothers
knee is the one day that comes back
to him in the years of shame and
sorrow. We may not find all in
Christmas that we should, it may not
come up to our expectations, but may
it at least bring sobering thoughts
of Him whose message of Peace and

A CHRISTMAS EDITORIAL.

December "a, 1879
Christmas Is here.
To its friends and readers, yea
even to its enemies this paper sends
forth its Christmas greetings, its best
wishes, hopes that their hopes may
come true.
May their Christmas this year be
all that it ought to be!
This is not a Christmas editorial.
Only one man in this world-that
great delineator of human emotion
and searcher into the human heart,
Charles Dickens, could write Christ
mas editorials.
You do not know what Christmas
is until you have read Dickens
Christmas stories, his Christmas
carols, and his Christmas delinea-
tions
One of the finest Christmas edi-
torials ever written comes in that
treasure trove of humor and kindli-
ness ''Pickwick Papers" where Dick
ems makes his beloved child say:
And numerous indeed are the
hearts to which Christmas brings a
brief season of happiness and enjoy
ment. How many families whose
members have been dispersed and
scattered far and wide, in the rest
less struggle of life, are then re-
united, and meet once again in that
happy state of companionship and
mutual good will, which is a source
of such pure and unalloyed delight,
cares and sorrows of the world. that
the religious beliefs of most of the
civilized nations, and the rude tradi-
tions of the toughest savages, alike
number it among the first joys of a
future state of existence, provided
for the blest and happy. How many
old reco1lections. and how many dor
mant sympathies. does Christmas
time awaken!
Many of the hearts that throbbed
so gaily then, have ceased to beat
Many of the looks that sfone SO
brightly, then have ceased to glow

grown cold; the eyes we sought have

IS A PAGE MISSING IN MR.. WILL
SONS COPY OF THE CONSTITU-

1t may be both proper and respect
full to remark that Mr.. Wilson's eag-
erness for the prompt enactment"
of statute establishing IN all the
States direst primaries for the nom
ination of candidates for President
runs at the very start squarely
against this provision of the United
States Constitution, in the second
clause of the first section of Article
H.:
Each State shall appoint, In
such manner as the Legislature
thereof may direct. a number of
electors equal to the whole number
of sc enators and Representatives to
, which the State may be entitled in
the Congress"
This power expressly reserved to
the States seems to have escaped the
attention of the learned President of
the United States; or if he has not
overlooked the foregoing clause he
must have failed to understand per-
fectly its significance.
The fact that all the Legislatures
have, for the time, directed that the
Presidential electors shall be ap-
pointed by popular vote in their re-
spective States does not in the slight
est degree affect their constitutional
right to change the present method
Iof appointment if they see At so to
do The power OF the State Legis-
IIatures over the methods of appoint
ing the electors is absolute.
