CHRISTMAS,
Christmas is most properly the day on
the people will neither fail of feeling
children, for Christ loved little children
"Of such," said He who Is worshipped
by hundreds of millions at the eon of

Whoever possesses not the frankness,
the honesty of heart, the cleanness of
mind, the hopefulness, the cheerfulness
and gentleness that characterizes the
child, is outside of the kingdom of
heaven. Thus the Infant on the
mother'! knee becomes her teacher,
her guide to Christ's kingdom, to the
gate of heaven. Were there no little
children, no opportunity for man at
every generation to retnrn to first prin
clples, but were birth and maturity to
follow in close succession, humanity
would become brutalized . The greatest
blessing in a household Is tlie child.
It is meant, therefore, that the day on
which Christendom celebrates the birth
of the icreat Founder of its militant
faith, the children should be made
happy by Christmas trees and presents
But true parent no less enjoys the
occasion, for he live over again in the
joys of bis offspring the innocence of bis
own childhood when so little, even a
big red apple or a nickel's worth of
candy, made him happier than now does
a hundred dollars. We couldn't get
along without the children I
' From time immemorial mankind has
celebrated the end of the old year and
the beginning of the new, because there
will soon appear a new spring and a
gratitude nor of expressing It. Tax
payers have their eyes open because
their wallets are light.
It's very evident that the strength
shown in the late elections by the
People's party was largely owing to the
disaffection of true democrats who were
not satisfied with the state of affairs in
their own rarty. This will not always
be, unless the "powers that be'' at
Washington give us unpopular lobula
tion at the closing session ol con. reus
Catering to monopolies, bankers, elc.

however. Mr. Cleveland should take
heed .Jacltonville Timet .
Tug price of wheat remains at 43
cents, but the market is weak. The
supply exceeds the demand. If it be
true that the increase in wheat pro
duction is not equal to the increase in
the world's population, it must be con.
sidered that, if for no other reason than
the increase of poverty among the
masses during the last 12 months, there
may be a greater consumption ol
cheaper foods.

Everybody is cordially invited.
The sole agent of the Gladstone real
estate asks the question, "Where could
a fairer, lovelier, spot bo selected?"
The editor of litis article thinks it a very
easy question to answer. "Why! Park
Place." We people of Park Place look
"down" ou Uladstune every time we
cast a glance in that direction. Park
Place is quite a thriving little city. We
have at present a public school build
ing, church, store, postoflice, photograph
gallery, butchcrshop, blacksmith shop
and picker-slick factory. All we lack
is a motor line. But one advantage we
have over Gladstone is that at any time
we can get a tie pass to Oregon City

Mrs. Severs, of Gladstone, were visitin

JOHN BOYD CTHACHER A WITNESS
He Fully Verifies Disputed World!
Fair
Disputed
Award.
John Doyd Thacher is laconic and de
cislve in his statements. During the
lively campaign just closed In New
York, this marked him especially as
chairman of 'the dum'H.-ratic state com-
diitiee. It W4s equally true of hi in as
chairman of the executive committee on
awards at the world's fair. This lithe
positive and sententious way In which
he verifies in an official letter, the hon
ors won by Dr. Price's Baking Powder.
"I herewith enclote you an official copy
of your award, which in due time will
be Inscribed in the diploma and for
warded." Thus the question respecting
the award, raised by an envious New
York rival, is settled beyond cavil.
This same rival by the way Is widely
advertising an- award for itself. The
official records prove this claim wholly
fale as they show the New York pre
tender was not so much as an exhibitor
at the world's fair.

ed that in the five months before the
bond issue the reserve bod not decreased
at all, but had been held at a little
above $00,000,000, there is every reason
to believe that tbe people who sold
their gold to the treasury for the new
bonds are merely drawing it out again
by turning in their currency. It is
plain that the government cannot keep
the gold it may get from the banks and
capitalists of the financial centers of
this county. While the supply of
visible gold in New York, Boston and
the other cities remains no greater than
at present, the banks will not let it re'
main in tbe treasury ao long as there
is a way to get it out. They have at
the best of times none too much to
make them feel safe, and if they
advance any of it to the treasury they
will attempt to get it back.

tbe costs of an election can be reduced

reason why it should not and will not
