h c V * ^ M-f :̂V ̂ ALMOST EVERY MEMBER OF TERRE HAUTE ADMINISTRA­ TION INDICTED. MAYOR AMONG THOSE TAKEN Donn Robert* Unable to Secure Bill and Goes to Jail--Officials Are Charged With Conspiracy to Corrupt Election Held Last November 3. TR grandfathers did not give up $50 each for the privilege of spending New Year's eve in crowded restaur­ ants. Neither did they, at the stroke of twelve, put on cam of colored paper, ring cow bells, and throw con­ fetti at strangers. Yet we, who ridi­ cule their traditions and superstitions, can find, it seems, no more satisfac­ tory way in which to speed the old year and welcome the new. 4 Perhaps we might profitably follow their example. Certainly their way of waiting for the new year at home, or at the home of their triends, with games and songs and domestic cheer, was less expensive than our way. Also it is a ... jpatter for regret that the pleasant customs of paying New Year's calls and of giving New Year's presents has disappeared. All the ritual of the day -gone; even the newsboy brings only a prosaic calendar nowadays, instead of the elaborate poetic address which in years gone by set forth his claims on the world's generosity. And New Year's "feesolutlons exist chiefly in the imagination of hu­ morous writers. , Now, it Is true that the apparently harmless customs of paying calls and giving presents on Kew Year's day were no^ regarded with favor by all critics of morals and manners. Early in the eighteenth century Henry Bourne, M. A., "curate of the parochial chapel of All Saints', in Newcastle upon Tyne," wrote "Antiquitates vulgares, or the antiquities of the common people, giving an account of their opinions and ceremonies, with proper reflections upon each of them; Ehewing Which may be retained and which ought to be laid aside." And he felt that he must be very careful Indeed with his discussion of New Year's Calls and gifts. He approved of thein, in modera­ tion; but he wanted to be on the safe side. , f As the vulgar are always very careful tr end the old year well," he wrote, (pointing his satire by means of italics,) "so they are also careful of beginning well the new one. As they end the former with a hearty compotatlon, so they be­ gin the latter with the sending of presents, which •re termed New Year's gifts to their friends and Acquaintances: the original of both which cus­ toms Is superstitious and sinful; and was observed ^fcat the succeeding year might be prosperous Mid successful." He calls many writers to witness the antiquity iVl these customs, quoting from Bishop Stllllngfleet, Glaus Wormius, Scheffer, "Snorro Sturleson," and **lhe poet Naogeorgus." Then he writes: "And no doubt, those Christians were highly worthy of censure, who Imagined, as the heathens did, that the sending of a present then was in any way lucky, and an omen of the success of the following year. For this wat the very thing that made sev­ eral holy men, and some general councils, take &otice of, and forbid any Buch custom; because the observance of it, otit of any such design and view, %as superstitious and sinful, we are told, in a place of St. Austin, the observation of the calends of January is forbid, the songs which were wont to be sung on that day, the feastings, and the presents which were then sent as a token and omen of a good year. But to send a present at that time, out of esteem, or gratitude, or charity, to no where forbid. "On the contrary, it is praiseworthy. For the ~ «bcieat fathers did vehemently inveigh against the Observations of the calends of January; yet it Was iipt because of those presents and tokens of mutual affection and love that passed; but because the diy itself was dedicated to idols, and because soiie prophane rites and' ceremonies they ob- iervefl in solemnizing it. "Ifithen I send a New Year's gift to my friend, It shjl be a token of my friendship; if to my bene- factof, a token of my gratitude; if to the poor |whi«n at this time must never be forgot) it shall l>® t» make their hearts sing for Jov, and give jpraitfe and adoration to the giver of all good gifts." At any rate, we still sa^/'Iiappy New Year!" ; whether or not the word's have any special sig- nHhance to as. In thf/*.vme of the learned Bourne th<ta were those who regarded this phrase with . 4le6D «usT\Jcipn._ IJj writes: "Another old custom at this tli^> |8 the wishing of a good New Year, .ytfen a New Year's gift is presented, or friends meet. Now, the original of this CQsltrp is heathenish, as appears by the feasting and pN|ents before mentioned, which were a wish "w a 8§>d year, and it was customary among the hcattyns on the calends of January, to go about and Hng a New Year's song. Hospinian, there- tore. *-511b that when night comes on, not only the Jiwng. but also the old of both sexes, run about PBre ®nd there, and sing a song at the doors of • the wt^ithtg,. people, in which they wish them a happy New Year. This he speaks Indeed of the C^ristianB( but he calls it an exact copy of the heathen'8 custom. ' Bu-i, however, I cannot see the harm of retain­ ing this aiHi^nt ceremony, so it be not used super- atltiously, norlattended with obscenity and lewd- ae88i ^or then there will be no more harm than wishl.'ig a gaud »ach others welfare and prosper-- Ity, m, oo?l harm, than wishing a good day. or good night. t,anVp bidding one godspeed." * • .°IIa"^:ihial there has been preserved up to recent yea|d cugtom of New Year's "mum- Bnng. oy^ind girls--men and women also, to •ome extent-*fjre8s^d ln c]0tbes and with their faces Ifjnted or masked, eould be 6een in the streets recently, begging and playing practical jokel qiiey dld 8|TO{ial. thing* in eight­ eenth century.t£)0nd01I> by no means to the approv- .J t?e iSjAte of the Parochial ̂ chapel of All Mints In Nejvcagtie_on.Tyne He wrtteB; ««rbere is another custom observed at this time, which is called among us mumming; which is a changing of clothes between men and women; who when dressed in each others' habits go from one neigh­ bor's house to another, and make merry with them in disguise, by dancing and singing, and such like merriments. • • • It were to be wished this custom which is still so common among us at this season of the year were laid aside; as it is directly opposite to the word of God." It is possible that "mumming" is related in some way to the performance which marked "Hog­ manay" in England and^ Scotland. "Hogmanay"' was the last day of the year. Some scholars think the word comes from the Greek "agia mene,M {"holy month"); others from the Saxon "halig monath," which has the same meaning; still others from the French phrase "Au gui menez" ("to the mistletoe go!") which mummers anciently cried in France at Christina*, or from "Au guenx menez," ("Bring to the beggars!"). Whatever the origin of the word may be, Hogmanay was the time for much amateur begging. The children went front house to house, staging such songs as: "Hogmanay, trollolay, Give us of your white bread. But none of your grey, Hogmena, Hogmena. Give us cake and cheese, sad let us go away." As they sang they collected what they called their "farls"--oaten cake and cheese. From this developed the "letting in" of the new year. Par­ ties of men and boys went through th^ town. They stopped at the front door of every house and sang until they were admitted. Then they received a small gift of money, went through the house and left by the back door. That a man should be the flnst visitor of the yeai was a general belief- in the British isles for centuries, nor is .it yet ex­ tinct. In Scotland the cer*>mony of "first-footing" has almost entirely died out. but in some of the re­ moter parts of that country it is pleasantly re­ membered. At the approach of 12 on New Year's ^eve a "hot pint" was prepared. This was a kettle of warm spiced or sweetened ale, with a liberal infusion Of spirits. #When the clock struck, every member Of, the family drank to the new year. Then^he elders of the family went out into the street, carrying the kettle of spiced ale and a supply of buns, cakes, bread, and cheese. When they met a party of friends similarly engaged, they stopped to exchange greetings and sips of ale. They went to the houses of their neighbors, sent the kettle from friend to friend, and spent the hours before dawn in sociability and good cheer. If they were the first to enter a house after twelve o'clock they were the "first-foot" and re­ ceived especial favor. In England, the first-footing parties were made up generally of the poor boys of the village, who carried a "wassail-bowl" decorated with ribbons, and received in return for their proffered drinks and good wishes, cakes and cups of ale. But in Scotland as recently as 100 years ago first-footing was a democratic social institution, in which few were too proud to share. The principal streets of Edinburgh, it is said, were more crowded be­ tween twelve and one on New Year's day morning than at noon on busiaess days. A simple ceremony, not yet obsolete, consisted in unbarring the front door as the clock struck twelve, to let the old year out and the new year in. Jn the Island of Guernsey the children paraded the streets carrying the effigy of a man, emble­ matic of the dying year. This they buried at midnight on the seashore, with elaborate ritual. At Burghhead in Morayshire, they kept New Year's eve by "Burning the clavie."' They made r huge piles of herring barrels, and set fire to them with peat. The burning embers they carried home to their houses as a protection against whatever evils the year might bring. -On New Year's day the Scotch of bygone gen­ erations believed no fire should go out of the house. If it were given, misfortune might be pre­ sented by throwing burning peat into a tub of water. There is something suggestive of the Russian EaBter in one "first-fqpting" custom once popular in Scotland and Bngland. The first visitor to a house on New Year's morning had the privilege of kissing the person that opened the door. Perhaps there is a reminiscence of ancient Are worship in the Shropshire custom of stirring the fire on New Year's morning before uttering a word. Although there are few houses where New Year's day is observed with its oldtlme hospital­ ity, the day is not wholly divorced from the thought of good things to eat. The ridiculous New Year's eve dinners in the Broadway restaurants have no special significance, but there are certain dishes inseparably associated with the day. 1 One of these is roast goose, which is perhaps more liked In England than America. But even more characteristic are those admirable little cakes which come from Germany, and which are imported in tin boxes. German cooks have made them for centuries, have lavished their time and energy on new designs and new flavors, and the result is a cake BO excellent that it mpst always be the special delight of the New Year feast. This point of ritual, surely, must be left us. So excellent is the German New Year's cake that it cannot be used for a charm, like the New1 Year's eve cake of Ireland. For this was thrown against the wall and broken Into pieces. The first fragment to touch the ground was eagerly sought,' for he who ate it was sure of a year's happiness. There was much pleasure in the baking of the cake. It was placed on a gridiron before the open Are, and incantations were sung to secure the suo- cess of the charm. THE CALL OF THE NEW VEAR A Christian man sat in the Master's presence thinking of the coming of the new year. It was a good but solemn thing to do. The man's thoughts in that presence ran thus: "Seeing him I am sure that every year is 'the year of our Lord.' It ought to be 'begun, continued and ended in him.' He will be with me all the days. My days must be in his hands." The Christian man continued his meditation--always in his pres­ ence, "What sort of man ought I to be, this year and all years?" The answer came out of an old word which had new meaning, in his presence: "Complete in him." Again he asked: "What kind of work ought I to do this year and all years?" The centuries fade away and he seems to hear again: "Whatsoever he saith unto you do it." He asked again: "Where shall I go to be his man and do his work?" Once more old words leap into new times: "To your household, to your neighbor, and to all the world." "How can I do all this?" "The entrance of his word giveth light," therefore give yourself to Bible study; "not by might nor by power but by my Spirit, saith the Lord of hosts," therefore give yourself to prayer; "I can do all things through Christ." therefore give your­ self to work; "in all things he shall have the pre­ eminence," therefore give yourself to him. And the man arose from the meditation to make the new year and all years, years of the Lord. And the Master arose and went with the man.--Bishop McDowell. Indianapolis, Ind., Dec. 29.--Prac­ tically every member of the city ad ministration of Terre Haute is is the hands of United States authorities as a result of the arrests of 93 persons made there on Saturday on indict­ ments charging a conspiracy to cor­ rupt the election qf November 3 last. Steps taken by Marshal Mark Storen, who is i6 Terre Haute, indi­ cate that other arrests are to be made. It is said more than one hun­ dred and twenty-five persons were named. in the indictments. Among the men taken were Mayor Donn M. Roberts, who is a.candidate for the Democratic nomination for gov­ ernor in 1916; Dennis Shea, sheriff of Vigo county; Circuit Judge Ell H. Red­ man, City Judge Thomas Smith and other leading Terre Haute politicians. Unable to furnish bond of $10,000 demanded by Marshal Storen, Mayor Roberts'was included in a party of 21 of the prisoners who had failed to provide bond, was brought to this city and placed in jail. Mrs. Roberts said she would procure ball for her hus­ band. The others were released on bonds ranging from $2,500 to $10,000 each. Sheriff Shea and Judge Redman were given their freedom on bonds of $10,- 000 each. Almost the only important; official of Terre Haute that hafi not been arrest­ ed by federal authorities is Edward Holler, chief of police. Chief Holler is now serving a sentence in the Vigo county jail for contempt of court. Frank C. Dailey, United States dis­ trict attorney for Indiana, who con­ ducted the investigation which result­ ed In the grand Jury indictments, said that Holler was among those indicted but that he probably would not be ar­ rested until he had completed his sen­ tence in the Vigo Jail. Mayor Roberts, who is regarded as the leader of the alleged conspiracy to corrupt the Terre Haute election, is charged with many overt acts in the indictment. He is accused of levying assess­ ments against proprietors of saloons, dance halls, gambling houses, and re­ sorts, to be used for the registration of voters; of hiring men to transport repeaters from one precinct to an­ other; of conspiring to place only men his money could influence on cer­ tain election boards; of ordering the arrest of certain men to prevent their voting, and of directing the making of false registration cards. When the grand jury completes the investigation of Terre Haute condi­ tions it will take up, according to Mr Dailey, conditions In Indianapolis, which, in the last election, were said to have rivaled Terre Haute condi­ tions in many precincts, and also in Evansville, where a number of organi­ sations have requested Mr. Dailey to make an investigation THE NEW YEAR. Julia Ward Howe was no believer ta New Year's resolutions. "We should make ard keep good resolutions all the year round," the celebrated author once said in Boston. "I am no great be­ liever in New Year's vows, for, although they are splendid things, they really don't affiount to much more than Oliver Wendell Holmes' tobacco reso­ lution. "Mr. Holmes, with effected gravity, said to a friend on the first day of the year: 'I really must not smoke so persistently; I must turn over a new leaf--a tobacco leaf--and hav« a cigar only after each'--here he paused as if to say 'meal,' but he continued--'after each cigar.'"
