The custom in an universal and a delightful one, whoro it 18 nut allowed to boconio a task instead of a pleasure, it is indeed a pleasuro to make some little, present to those near and dear to uh, boiiio littlo remembrunco that will awaken tender memories in tho yearn to come. There is just ono drawback to tho custom, and that is that as wo do in most things, we havo carried Christinas giving to extremes. Wo have not only wid ened tho field, but wo havo slowly mulo tho value of the gift a feature. Wo havo como to regard gifts at their nctual value, instead of valuing them by the heart and love, the affection and friendship that are the soul of Christmas giving. We arc overlooking tho fact that not tho gift, but tho feeling that prompt ed the gift is what we should appreciato and what wo should value, rather than the gift itsolf. When littlo Susie or Mury, with loving hands and awk ward fingoTB, make with infinite painssonio wondorful gift for Mamma, somo creation of bits of silk or worsted that has no tiso under tho sun, and when on Christmas morning this littlo gift, into which has boon worked with every uneven stitch, tho love and tenderness with which tho littlo heart of its maker is filled, iH shyly laid by Mamma's plalo, while sparkling eyes and shining facO attest tho depth of pleasuro and tho yenrning love of tho little giver, what in tho eyes of that mother can ecpial it in value? Who can estimate the price of Itt That it is of no use and can never bo, cuts no figure. It is laid away after a while, when time has allowed the whole family to admire and wonder at it, but is never forgotten. And if tho years should bring sorrow and death, and tho littlo fingers that toiled over it should be folded forever over the littlo bronst, and tho oyes that shone so brightly on that Christmas morn should be clotted to open never again on earth, what a priceless treasure! It is tho lovo in the gift, not the gift that has tho inestimable value, and we should get back to that way of measuring such things. When there is love in tho gift, whnt is there can add to its value f When love is wanting, what elso can put in its place that vuluol IT WILL ACCOMPLISH NOTHING. NIIE REPUBLICAN NATIONAL COMMITTER has met and rearranged the basis on which the southern states shall be represented, and hns ad journal. It id supjwsod that this will uuito tho party and bring tho Hull Moosers back into the fold. Uudor this system this would reduce the number of delegates to tho national convention from 1078 to WK. This, with tho Republican party is a matter of considerable importance, as korotoforo under tho old rating the southern states had 3.1 per eoont of tho nominating force, but cast few votos in the election. In other words the south had one third of the nominating ability, but never ussislcd in eloctii.g a prosident. The Domocrats are nut bothorcd that way, as tho South is solid on election day anil can be depended on to cast a solid vote for tho Democratic candidate. While this Booms to bo a wiso and proper move on the part of tho Republi cans, it may woll bo doubted If it will cement tho juvrty and bring tho parts Bow so widely separated together. We fancy there are differences so mdieul between tho two wings of tho party, that the part played by the South in nam ing candidate will not havo any effect on tho action of the Hull Moosers. The party will again unite when tho standpatters bcomo progressive, when the con srovatives become radical, when tho new replaces the old, when tho Republican party adopts Hull Moose principle, when the Ethiopian change his skin and tho leopard hi spot There will bo party reunion when the Bull Moose party absorbs the Republican jtarty. This is so because tho Bull Moose party is not composed of Republicans alono, but has a largo clement of Democrats, and with these there is no going back to any party from which they have searatcd. It will take more than a change of representation In the South to harnumize the Republican party. s T. J. Thrift, of Coo eooaty, oleeted president of tho Oregon' Awe or' association yesterday, shortly be fore tho convention, which ha bora held hero for the pt two day, ad journed. J. I Clark, of Clackamas mnty, was sleeted vice-president, and Max Craadall, of Washington, wa lec'ted secretary. Resolutions were passed asking that the county court be relieved of th Power to dismiss deputy asessor for ertain cause and that the association work is the future to establish a more uniform system of fixing the salaries f tho deputies. Among those who addressed the meet ing yesterday wore Assistant Plate School Superintendent Carleton and State Engineer Lewie. The next meet ing will be held In Portland. Frequently what wo speak of as "providence" is merely improvidence. Y BY SENATE 54 TO 34 ., tv7!,ra. lua wtM.f ' Wasaiairtoa, Dec. 0.

They were ev idently several families of them, for they wero under the radiators and in every available nook and corner of the building.
