Each succeeding Christmas brings again its songs of “Peace on earth, good will to men.” No song has been found which is sweeter, none which touches the human heart more quickly or more potently than this song, sung to tbe watching shepherds nearly two thousand years ago. To persons of every class the Christmas season is awaited with anticipations of pleasure. From the little child to whom it seems ihat Christmas will never come again, to the busy man and woman to whom last year’s festival seems but as yesterday—all are anticipating a return of pleasure for the coming wepk. It is a time when friends are remembered, a time when business is largely suspended, a time for visiting, a time of feasting. The air is full of pleasant surprises. Much of the pleasure found in these annual festivities is in the seeking to make others happy. The poor are remembered and many a humble home rejoices because of the kindness of some friend better situated. Happiness does not come to the person who seeks her for her own sake; but to him who seeks to make others happy she comes with doubled blessings. The political papers of all parties are outspoken in their approval of the proposed plan for suspending immigration for one or for five years. The country has been awakened by the threatened invasion of the cholera, and the people are demanding of Congress that they take some action. Immigration has not proved an unmixed good. America does not care to .be made a dumping ground for the rubbish of Europe. Such material does not make the kind of citizens we desire. The people will welcome a bill which will at least restrict immigration to those who are desirable. A loud wail of woe is heard from the steamship companies because of the loss of their profit from steerage passengers, but the interests of this country must not. bo allowed to suffer for the-benefit of a few steamship lines owned by citizens of foreign nations. Another reason for prompt action is the cholera which threatened us this year. Physicians are agreed that it will be prevalent in Europe again next summer. A few cases in one of our ( cities would greatly injure the World’s Fair and an epidemic would ruin it. Our people realize this immediate danger, as well as the constant menace to our institutions; hence they will welcome any plan that will bring about restriction. Kcyo All lilslst. Edinburg is proud of the new carriage factory it secured from its neighboring town of Hope. Hope has long enjoyed the reputation of manufacturing good buggies, and while it loses a factory, the Republican ventures the assertion that it will not be missed, for every young man in that place knows how to aid

in tho construction of buggies, and the work of building them will go on as it always has. Hope will never be downed so long as everybody lives as they do up there, where they own their own homes and but few of them die under 80 years of age. Hope to-day has more old people in and around it than any other town of its size in tho state, and in the cemetery are buried more octogenarians than any other cemetery in this part of the woods. People up at Hope are industrious, honest and permitted to live a long time. It is true that Hope, the best country town in the county, has not grown much in the last few years, but many of the business houses and residences have been rebuilt. Hope will not suffer by the loss of its little carriage factory. The above is clipped from the Columbus Republican of last Saturday. While we regret the loss of any industry here, we are glad to have it understood that Hope is still in the buggy manufacturing business. S. Neligh is making as good buggies as can be found in the county and will have all the work he can do in this line. The loss of the Albright factory is more than compensated in the organization of a stock company, now being completed, for building a large flour mill here in the spring. The jiroposed building will be of brick, 50xfi0 feet, three stories high, and will contain all the latest machinery for tho manufacture of flour. The old mill which burned here last summer did a flourishing business and the new mill will at once receive the .old patronage. And then our creamery has been sold to a new stock company, as will be seen in our news columns this week, and will be put on a paying basis at once. Yes, Brother Republican, you are right, and so is “Hope All Right.” AMONG THE CHURCHES. MORAVIAN. Saturday, Christmas eve, at 7 p. m., the children will give the story of the “Coming Child” in song, story and picture. The fine taste of Dr. Regennas will be exercised again in the Christmas decorations. Seldom have churches or communities any single person -whoso versatile genius excels in so many directions as does that of the genial doctor. Sunday, 10:30 a. m.: Christmas sermon, followed by love-feast. Evening service with' children’s Christmas songs at 6:30 p. m. All welcome. Good-will offering for the Sunday-school on Christmas eve and for home missions Sunday morning. After the holidays Mrs. John Kilbuck, wife of Rev. John Kilbuck, who has been among the Eskimos of Alaska for eight years, will visit Hope. By her thrilling accounts of .missionary work and life she roused great interest and enthusiasm. She is a captivating speaker who has a story to tell. Keep this in mind and don’t fail to hear her when she comes. METHODIST EPISCOPAL. Last Sunday morning Aaigust Heilman and wife united with the church. Do not fail to attend our cantata, “Santa Claus' Delight,” next Friday evening. The services next Sunday evening will be conducted by members of the Sabbath-school. A meeting of the "W. C. T. TJ. will be held at the residence of Mrs. L. Dillman next Monday afternoon. Mary E. Coats, who died Monday evening, was a member of our church, a faithful member of the Sundayschool and an earnest and devoted member of the Epworth League. She passed quietly away to the blessed Master, who dooth all things for the best. BAPTIST. Subject for Young People’s meeting next Sunday evening: “The birth of Christ.” The pastor will preach at Sharon next Sunday morning. Regular services in the evening. It is very important that all old subscriptions be paid to the treasurer, Dr. Stapp, by next Sunday. There was no preaching last Sun-

day morning owing to the pastor’s absence to preach the funeral of Simon Marker. A nice programme has been prepared for Christmas morning, to take the place of the regular Sundayschool exercises. Creamery Sale. The Hope creamery, which started out with flattering prospects, became so involved that the property was sold last Thursday to a new stock company, who propose to run it on a paying basis. The directors of the new company are Thos. M. Yinnedge, Samuel Hitchcock and David Robertson. The other members are D. W. Dodd, H. S. Rominger, Thos. Essex, Simon Nading, Geo. Schaefer, John Dodd, Frank Spotts and Freeman Marker. The capital stock of the new company is placed at $1,300. The names of these gentlemen is sufficient guarantee for the business management of the concern and the Republican wishes them the gi’eatest possible success financially. Born, to Mr. and Mrs. Chas. F. Eemy, Sunday morning, a fine 95 pound boy baby. Charley was down in town this morning as usual, and is the proudest man in the city today. —Columbus Republican of Monday.
