F. PROHIBITION { AND PRESIDENCY.
Progressive Party Planning to Make:
it Hobby in 1916

Washington Dec 24.-Leaders OF
the two old parties last night ex-
pressed the belief that prohibition of
the liquor traffic doubtless would
become an issue in the Presidential
campaign of 1916. This was con-
ceded despite the fact that the Re-
publican leadership and the Demo
cratic party, as represented by the
administration and by its Spokesman,
united Tuesday in opposing the Hob
son prohibition resolution which was
voted down in the House.
That the Progressive party is
making plans to feature prohibition
in 1916 is generally believed. 1t also
is believed that movements will be
organized within the two old parties
to further the cause of temperance
as national issue
In his closing speech in the House
Tuesday night. Representative Hob
son, OF Alabama. autnor OF the pro-
hibition resolution, made threat
that was not overlooked by the lead
ers Of the Democratic party. He de-
clared that if prohibition was down.
ed in the next Congress the people
might elect in 1916 an administra-
ton that would not dare, either in
the open or under cover, "to fight
the cause of prohibition"
While Mr.. Hobson has always been
a Democrat, it is known that he
would not hesitate to desert that
party if the party at any time adopt
ed plank in its national platform
expressly disappearing the movement
for the suppression of the liquor traf-
fic.

CHRISTMAS
SEASON.

Bv this time tomorrow the sun
will be setting upon the Christmas
of 1914 The final preparations fol
the celebration Of this the most
ioyful day in the calendar have been
made today and minor matters
generally arranged on Christmas Eve
night will keep shopkeepers abusy
until the actual event Of Christmas
Day.
MANY centuries have elapsed since
the silence of the Judean Hills was
broken by the sound of the angelic
choir proclaiming peace to men, at
which time a Wonderful Child was
sleeping upon it's mothers bosom In
an inn in Bethlehem.
1t is the anniversary of His birth
which we will celebrate tomorrow.
In America, where peace prevails,
the day will be observed as OF old.
There will be family and social gath
erings and JOY will prevade the
air. 1t will, however, be gloomy
Christmas in some places, where in
stead of the angels song, the dogs
Of war will be swapping and snari-
inc and te1rorizing cities, towns and
villages.
Young and old generally enter into
the spirit of Christmas. 1t Is meet
that we should not however, into
the many excesses SO often apparent.
but in the innocent enjoyment OF
the blessings of the Creator.
The anticipation of the young upon
tie approach of Christmas becomes
more earnest as the day draws near.
Their visions are generally execava-
CANT and often air castles fade away
as vapor There may be some disap-
pointed ones tomorrow. but while 50
much trouble is in the world they
Should be thankful they are as we'll
off as they are and in a country
which is blessed as is the United.
States during the fearful clash Of
arms which is now terrorning man

down Belgian cities and bringing

last year. The Kaiser's Christmas

tha." This specimen CT modern

While America will be enjoying
the many blessings sent upon ner

In most ecvry city in the United

are engaged in one way OF another in
easing the burdens of those upon

were unprepared for it. Alexan-
drians have not been unmindful OF
the fact that some in our midst are
in need of aid. and they have not
been slow in reaching such.
