Christmas Modernized and Its Modern Critique

A reflective piece on how Christmas has become a material and social performance. It laments loss of simple spirit, feasting, and genuine affection, noting authorities and social reformers encroaching on private life. The article also touches on Atlanta politics, moonshine cases, and 1904 Republican hints amid a broader societal critique.

Senator Pettus Bandanna Sparks Senate Legend

The Washington Post notes Senator Pettus of Alabama is famed for his vivid red bandanna that fills the chamber when unfurled. It contrasts with late 19th century tributes to Thurman, as Pettus clings to this old habit and sources the handkerchiefs from Louisiana, distinguishing genuine red bandannas from fakes.

Real Santa Claus versus the Pretender

A reflection on two Santa figures, the genuine benevolent giver who acts from love and joy, and the commercial pretender who gives out of expectation and potential profit. The real Santa, long planned, moves downtown with a merry face, proving the early bird finds what he wants and what he gives reveals knowledge of us.

Freight Rates Reduced on Minnesota Railroads

Late yesterday the railroad and warehouse commissions issued two orders in the iron ore rate cases. One order targets the Duluth Missabe and Northern and the other the Duluth and Iron Range railroad. The Eastern Minnesota case was dismissed. Missabe rates fell from 0 to 6 cents per ton, while Duluth and Iron Range rates drop from 80 90 and 81 to 60 70 and 30 cents. Net earnings for Missabe would drop about 81,090,000, leaving roughly 151,089.10. Duluth and Iron Range could see about 560,000. The commission says this yields a fair income on capital invested.
