When the Republican party has not
been voted out of Office, the periods of
hard times, sweet fruits of unjust
conditions that Republicanism specif-
ically and especially stands for, have
come Just the same. This trifling fact
is of course overlooked, or If not over
looked is not advertised-by our Re-
publican friends.
In 1873, under the highest protect

known and when Republican control
was and had been for years absolute
and complete, there was period OF
distress and wreck and ruin that has
hardly been equalled.

after still further lease Of Republic

farmer especially having the very life
pressed out of him. Throughout the
West, where small cities had not yet
become sufficiently strong to weather
the storm, 1t was no uncommon thing
for every merchant in . town to be-

Of it. Only 'big business came out

Quence Is brewing in the house, SYM
pathizers with Germany and with the

The clash is certain to materialize II
the foreign affairs committee reports
the Nollmer resolution authorizing the
president to lay an embargo upon the
expectations of munitions of war, a
plan which is advocated by Germanic
sympathizers and to some extent by
disinterested persons. but which is
strongly opposed by partisans of the
allies and by those who contend the
proposal represents purely scheme
to aid one of the belligerents in the
European war at the expense Of Amer
lean interests.
Attitude Of Proponents.
If the resolution should reach the
floor of the house its proponents will
argue that it is immoral for the United
States to supply the means of contin-
uing the great struggle in Europe.
though they do not go so far as to de-
mand an embargo upon the expectation
OF food and clothing to the belligerents.
They also Will contend that because
Germany Is shut off from the supply OF
munitions Of war the United States is
committing an unnatural act In allow
ing shipments of arms to the allies.

Stand Of the Opposition.
The opponents OF the Vollner reso-

schemes to aid one or the other bel
ligerent as offenders against the presi-
dents neutrality proclamation. They
even go so far as to brand the pro-
motors OF such measures as anti
Americans who place the interest OF
foreign nations above the welfare OF
the United States.
They charge that the embargo is
sought chiefly in the interest Of Ger
many's fortunes in the war. and in
support of this assertion point out that

And old Santa Claus sledge is piled

With an abundance of toys, books and

For all good little boys and girls

And the snow flakes drift down in

Fat, jolly, red-faced full of glee-
He's been keeping tab on each one of you:
In the picture he's looking to see
Which Riddles have minded their parents,
Which youngsters have done as they
ought;
If you have been good and done as you
should,
Old Santa'l bring you a lot.
See! He's looking his list of names over,

Today he'd never need doubt
That Santa would fill up his stocking;
And if Maizie hadn't been bad,

That yellow-h haired dollie that's going to
Molly
Is one present she might have had.
For Molly behaved herself nicely,
She doesn't grumble, tell fibs or be

So her papa has written to Santa
Telling whet a good girl she'e been.
Then there's Tommys name on the pa

Nor is cruel to kitties. It's thousand

That Freddies mother had as few cares.

Next comes Bobbie, that jolly young ras-
cal!
And Henry-the boys call him HEMP
There's a red sled for Bob, and for
Henry a job
Playing war with his tin soldier men.
Dick will wake up to find new tool set;
Phil will get those shining new skates;
Joe's football outfit sure will please him:
He can now go and play with his mates.
Bert likes story books and he'll get some;
A hobby horse Harry will please;
Yes, each little tike will get what he
likes
Their good traits old Santa Claus sees.
AS he cons the long list DER and DER,
Look! he's smiling to think of the joy,
That when Christmas bells ring, each
holiday thing
VIII bring to each good girl and boy.
Remember you little folks, always,
That obedience, kindness, good cheer
Are the things mamma wants and are
sure to enaconce
You in Santa Claus favor. Oh, hear
How the sleighbells are jingling ard tin
king,
How the reindeer are prancing to go
Swimming along DER the housetops,
Unmindful of cold, ice or snow.

Is your name on his visiting list?
Now in bed abide; down the chimney he'll

South American Industry.

The sap of the sapodilla tree is
very largely used in the manufacture
of chewing gum. The tree is cult
waited in Mexico and Central America,
and the method of collecting the sap,
called "chicle," is very similar to that
employed in extracting maple sugar.
Mexico alone in 1910 exported chicle
valued at $4,000, which will give
you good idea of the extent of the
