Reward Offered For
ParHes Destroying
Lovely Christmas Tree
One of the prettiest lighted Christ-
ma strees in thb city has been burn
ing for several nights on the lawn
of Mr. and Mrs. J. Steiner on West
Centennial street. Many passers-by
have remarked on the loveliness of
the tree and its decorations.
An unknown party or parties went
into the yard Monday night and com
pletely ruined the decorations and
stole all the bulbs and equipment.
Mr. Steiner stated yesterday that
he will give a liberal reward for the
apprehension of the culprit. He was
indignant about what happened, and
rightly so.
It’s a mean, low-down trick, The
Chronicle says, for anyone to go-on
private property and destroy a
Christmas tree provided for the en
joyment of the family and others
during the happy Yuletide season.
‘‘Nor have we voluntarily released
anybody. We had to make the fight
we did to preserve the principles of
States’ Rights. We are not ashamed
of the showing we made. If we had
carried two more, states—Georgia and
Texas, for example—we w r ould have
thrown the election of a president
into congress.”
Electors all over the nation met
Monday to cast their official votes
for president and vice-president.
Both Thurmond and his Slates’
Rights, running mate, Gov. Fielding
L. Wright, of Mississippi, said they
do. not regard the States’ Rights
movement a failure or a dead issue.
They are among the Southern gov
ernors taking part in a regional edu
cational conference here.
