INDIANAPOLIS, Oct. 1910 the NelC York
IimeS.-The present returns show that the re-
publican state ticket, except the governor, is
certainly elected. We must get correct returns
from the democratic counties of Dubois Harri-
son, Hancock and johnson before the result for
governor can be positively stated.
The republicans have carried the state largely
on district congressman. Niblack is elected by
only 1913. Voorhees, is beaten by Gen. NJ. c.
Hunter 859, and Manson, democrat, the present
member is beaten by Judge Cason 400. Gen.
Shanks, the present republican member from
the ninth district, runs behind the state ticket,
but as that has 1902 majority in his district, he
cannot possibly lose all that, and he is there
fore, elected This result leaves the Indiana
delegation in the next congress ten republicans
and three democrats.

November 2SIh as the Day.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct 11.-By the Presi-
dent of the United States of America:
A PROCLAMATION.
Whereas, the revolution of another year has
again brought the time when it is usual TO look
upon the past and publicly thank the Almighty
for his mercies and his blessings and, whereas,
if any one people has more occasion than au-
other for such thankfulneSs, it is the citizens of
the United States, whose government is their
creature subject to their behests; who have re-
served TO themselves ample civil and religious
freedom and equality before the law; who, dur
ing the last twelve months, have enjoyed
exemption from any grievance or gen.
eral calamity, and to whom prosperity in
agriculture and manufacture has been youch-
saied; therefore, by these considerations, rec
ommend that on Thursday, the 2Sth day of No
vember next, the people meet in their respective
places of worship and make their acknowledge
ments to God for kindness and bounty.
In witness whereof | have hereunto set my
hand and caused the seal of the United States
to be affixed.
Done at the city of Washington this 18th day
OF October, in the year of our Lord 1872, and OF
the independence of the United States the nine
ty-seventh.
