The true r.kristmns p-ift is not measured Urt fYio dollar m ark. but by the spirit that prompts the giver. TYRANNY. Tn this day of enlightenment the spirit .of American fairness has found its way into every home, whether palace or novel, whether on. mountain or plain, and public opinion will not fail to mark the man who abuses his nnwpr. It was said of Lincoln that he never abused his power except upon the side or mercy. Lincoln will be remembered and so lone as history lasts. Had he abused his powers upon the side of tyranny he would !.a.uA hpni remembered but ! niu,l hv all mankind. In all this land, broad and free, there's nnt a nook or corner where ty vmnnv finds a welcome and wherever the rights of this peo ple are ', entrusted to one of our citizens, woe unto him if n? .t-ivhhlps from the path of justice, rectitude and right. If the siren of tyranny sings let him remem hpr that there are rocks ; upon which the bark of every tyrant has been wrecked; let him re member that he who embezzles nnwer hecause of malice, that he r who abuses power because of bias will feel the swift verdict 01 an indignant public.

Who baa sot sought to aound Its unspeakable1 depths? Who has not felt Ita all-compelling power? Who has not surrendered to Us Irresistible force? Romances are built about It Wars have been fought for It and religions based upon It Love is the dream of the poet, the puule of the philosopher, the theme pf the novelist and the song of the minstrel Love links all the human race. Its note of victory is heard In the royal court and In the peasant's cottage. The song of love is on the lips of the proudest queen and of her humblest subject It Is the stimulus of parental amo tion In the home and of patriotism In the nation. Brave men die for It and noble women perish that they may bear Its sweet Incense with them to the grave. How sweet and tender Is this splen did attribute of mankind! In Its smil ing presence, anger, bitterness and strife melt away. How much more has the world to hope for from love than from envy, malice and hatred! In this period of world-wide dis trust of resentment against eoono- mlo conditions, of protest against au thority, human and divine, and wide spread defiance of law, can we not turn aside , at this Christmas season for a moment and learn anew the les son of love? When we shall have leaned that lesson, we shall also know the Better and fuller meaning of obedience, osav tentment and peace.
