AGAINST SANTA CLAUS.
The New York press reports
that a number of prcachers of
that city hare agreed té discour
age and banish Santa Çlaus as a
feature of Christmas observations.
They say that the religious na
ture of the day is neglei ici in the
superior homage that is paid to
the patron saint of the children.
Instead of Santa Claus they pro
pose lo introduce a symbolical
mangrr and child and thereby
catry out the bibl:~~al signi. 'w e
of the day.
It is a saddening fact that mod
ern childhood has lost much of i
olden freedom, buoyancy and in
nocent delusion. The Fontlcroy
boy and the hothouse girl have
largely replaced the wicked liule
rascals and the tomboyish lassies
that have become the fathers and
mothers of the present day. Jack
the giant killer and Bluebeard
are no longer staple in child lo r e,
nor do the ogre and good fai y
terrify or soothe the young hear;
as in olden, golden days that even
you and I remember. But is it
well that childhood has lost its : '
lusion and romance and imagery?
Truly it seems that in thSs age of
high pressure activities the young
are brought enough inte» the ac
tualities of life. The forcing
period comes in ample season,
childish vanities are quibkly dis
pelled, the bloom and freshness
of innocence are gone even before
the change is understood. Chil
dren are born into childhood and
by nature are intended to he ve its
frolics, its follies and itè fai.ies.
The child that does not have these
has had something taken out of
its life that after year3 can never
restore.
Let the preschers crowd all the
symbolic religion into the adults
and into those that have reached
the age of discretion that they
may stand. It won't hurt them
and may do them a power of good.
But let the iconoclastic hand spare
the harmless joys of the childish
heart. Let Santa Claus bring
in his messages of pe^ice and
good will and his substantial
blessings that shed such light and
benediction upon the family circle
THE OPAL MlNES

Mr. M. R. Given8, owner of
the Warm springs on Snafte river,
18 miles west of Nampa, was in
town the first of the week and
stated to a representative of the
Leader that C. B. Garrison, mana
ger of the opal mines, had just
received word from the owners
that money had been sent from
Boston to make final payment.
This means more to the people
of Nampa than might be supposed
by many, but the full effects can
not be stated at present. This is
the nearest railroad point and, of
course, supplies and machinery
will be freighted from her!e. Two
men are now at work and are
taking out opals that would daz
zle the eyes of a dealer in Austra
lian beauties were he to gaze on
them. It is the intention cf the
company to put a large force of
men at work within a few weeks
as the stones recently found sur
passes those that took first prize
at the World's fair, both in size
and qu?'ity. As development
work goes on everything goes to
prove that the supply is unlimited
and lha* the deeper in the mount
ain they go the larger and better
the stones. The opals that are
now being mined are superior to
any yet discovered anywhere and
ere long will be the most popular,
—Nampa Leader.
