National Thanksgiving.

A PROCLAMATION BY THE PRESIDENT.
The completed circle of summer and win
ter, seed time and harvest, has brought us to
the accustomed season at which religious
people celebrate with praise and thanksgiy-
ing the enduring mercy of Almighty God. This
devout and public confession of constant de-
pendence of man upon the Divine Father for
all the good gifts of life and health and peace
and happiness, early in our history made
the habit of our people, finds in a survey of
the past year new grounds for it's joyful and
grateful manifestation for all blessings which
depend upon benignant seasons This has
indeed been a memorable year over the wide
territory of the country Withall its diversi-
ty of SOIL and climate, and products, earth
has yielded bountiful returns to the labor of
the husbandman. The health of the people
has been blighted by no prevalent or wide
spread diseases. No great disasters of ship
! wreck upon our coasts or to our commerce
on the seas have brought loss and hardship
to merchants or mariners, and clouded the
happiness of the community with sympa-
thetic sorrow. In all that concerns our
| strength, and peace, and greatness a a ma
ton; in all that touches the permanence and
security of our Government, and the benefi-
cent institutions on which it rests; in all that
affects the character and disposition of our
people, and tests our capacity to enjoy and
uphold the equal and free condition of
| society. now permanent and universal
| throughout the lanu, Cne expert
| ence of the last year is conspicuously
marked by the protecting providence of God,
and is full of hope and promise to coming
| generations. Under a sense of the infinite
| obligations to the Great Ruler of times and
seasons and events, let US humbly aseribe to
| our own faults and frailties, if in any degree
that perfect concord and happiness, faith and
! justice which such great mercies should diff
| fuse through the hearts and lives of our peo-
| pie. do not altogether and always and every
where prevail Let us, with one spirit and
one voice, lift up praises and Thanksgiving to
| God for His manifold good to our land, His
manifold care for the nation.
Now, therefore, 1, Rutherford B. Hayes,
President of the United States, do appoint
Thursday, the 29th7day of Noyember next, as
a day of national thanksgiving and prayer,
and 1 earnestly recommend that, withdraw
| ing themselves from secular cares and labors,
/ the people of the United States do meet to-
gether on that day in their respective places
| of worship, there to give thanks and praise
| to Almighty God for His mercies and to de-
| voutly beseech their continuance.
In witness whereof have hereunto set my
hand and caused the seal of the United States
| to be affixed. Done at the City of Washing
ton this 29th day of October, in the year o
our Lord one thousand eight hundred and
/ seventy seven, and of the eindependenceof the
United States the one hundred and second.

Those Good Old Times.

The editor of the Press distinctly re-
collects in 1841, when living in Chicago,
of conversing with farmers who came
to that city from DeKalb and Winneba-
go Counties with loads of wheat 40 bush
els was considered a load in those mud
dy times in the falD, and selling it for
% cents bushel. We have seen good
milch COWS sold in this State in the
earlier days for from So to $40, the lat
ter figure being considered an extra
price. We have also seen pork sold in
Ogle County for 80 cents per hundred
pounds. ..
We visited the old battle ground of
Tippecanoe, near Lafayette, Ind, dur
ing the big barbecue in 1910, and saw
corn cribs half a mile long packed with
good corn that had been offered for
cents bushel, and could find no pur-
chasers, and this on the Wabash River,
with a good stage of water to the Ohio
and Mississippi Rivers.
We know of one farmer by the name
of Hunt who lived in Kane County,
near Geneva, in those early days, who
took load of potatoes (45 bushels) to
Chicago and traded the whole load for
eight yards of common calico. That
was the best he could do with his ''truck. y
The same farmer, Hunt, got stuck with
his team in the mud on Lake Street, be-
tween LaSelle and Clark Streets, and
we were one of a half dozen who helped
rescue his team and load from " going
through to China" Soundings were
actually taken on Lake Street that yeal
to ascertain if there was any bottom
Lake Street was soon after planked, the
plank being placed some two or three
feet below the sidewalk. This contriv
ance was a curiosity, and every time
team passed over the plaHks waite
would squirt up through the crack
from one to four feet high, depending
on the speed of the vehicle that wa
passing over them-and not unfrequent
ly covering those in the wagon wit
mud and water. But this was a grea
i. improvement over the original mod
; provided by the soil. Some peopl
think those were better times than th
, , present, and there certainly was MOI
; independence and honesty in the land

WAR NEWS.

Dispatches of the 27th, state that Err

habitants are af'Ining and reinfOrcements are
fastening from Trebizond.
twas reported on the 2Sth that Is
mail Pasha had effected a function with
Mukhtar Pasha, and that the army was con-
centfathd in strong position at Koprik OF,
where great battle WAS imminent 81
IA. dispatch via ST. Petersburg, 29th,
says Kars is completely invested, and Gen.
Fergukasotf has occupied Bayaz1d. OnSun-
day the Russians carried a Turkish position
west Of Rlevna, capturing one Pasha, several
officers and seven companies of soldiers.
Mukhtar Pasha tefegraphed on Saturday that
the ~Russians were epcamped within three
hours march of his headquarters.
The Russians have captured Tellische
after brief Commandment, together with a
small Turkish garrison.
Advices from st. Petersburg, 31st,
say that negotiations with the Kars gaIri
son had been broken off, and bombardment
recommended. Gems. Heymann and Ter
gukasoff had effected junction near Has
san Kalch, and it was reported at Constan-
tinople that Orehanie had been captured,
with CheYket Pasha and several thousand
troops.
Dispatches of the 1st say that Mokhtar
Pasha's position is considered critical, but
not Desperate. 1t is officially announced
that 226,0O0 HIrkish Reserves are to be i'm
mediately called out for active Service. Of
fcial returns of the killed, wounded and

Turks claimed to have repulsed the Russian
advance, with great loss to the invaders.
The reported capture of Orchanie by the
Russians is officially contradicted, and
Cheyket Pasha occupied commanding posi-
ton at the junction of the roads leading to
Orchanie, Eovatz and=PleYna.
