BE THANKFUL-WHAT FOR?

Be thankful that you are alive with an
opportunity of correcting the mistakes Of
the pasta chance to make past ex-
perience contribute to future success.
Be thankful for the measure of health
you enjoy, which in many cases is mar
velously good, considering how you have
broken the laws of nature.
Be thankful for home and friends, for
daily bread, for schools and churches,
and for all the common, everyday bless
ings of life.
Be thankful that you are citizen Of
the United States Of America. Our gov
eminent is not perfect, but it is the best
the sun shines on. While there are mo-
nopolies, trusts, corporate greed, gold
bugs, the liquor traffic and other evils
which burden the people. yet we have
free speech and free ballot for the cor
rection OF all these wrongs.
Be thankful that you live in Colorado
with its almost constant sunshine and
pure air, constituting climate unsur-
passed between the two great oceans.
Be thankful that you live in the Ar
kansas valley of Colorado, where agricul-
tural and kindred branches are prosecut-
ed under the most favoring environment;
where if July hail destroys your melon
fields you can plant the ground in beans,
or buckwheat, or other crops and make
more money than out OF the original
planting.
Be thankful that there are some things
better than those which are measured by
the dollar standard-of more worth than
gold and silver (at 16 to y: Honor, hon.
esty, purity, fair play, unselfishness.
These you can have If your bank account
is small.
Be thankful that you live in a land
where public national Thanksgiving
Day is recognized annual observance
which means much, very much.
Good crops have SO uniformly reward
ed the labor of the agricul-
turist that when there is partial failure
many farmers think that they have been
cheated out of their just dues, swindled,
as it were, by divine Providence. (The
claim that continuous prosperity is act
ually due them is entertained by business
men as well as farmers.) So assured are
these classes of the iustness OF their claim
for constant business boom, that when
there is a Stacking in money-making they
feel that they would be justified in bring
ing a suit for damages in the district
court, had that tribunal jurisdiction.
But in most cases the reverse of this is
true. If disposed to think yourself ag-
grieved, some bright morning when you
can look at things Just right, get true
focus on yourself up your life ac-
cording to the high standards by which
American citizenship should be meas
ured, and see if you have not had more
of the good things of life than You really
deserve.
Be thankful on general principles rath-
ell than complaining. Take bright view
of things. Try to turn seeming defeats
into victories. Make the best of life.
for yourselves and others. As you jour
ney through life there are many times
when there will be peas in your shoes
but you can boil the peas.

David Tatum, the Quaker preacher,
was greeted by full house at the NJ. E.
Church Tuesday evening. He made a
very strong presentation OF the evils Of
the liquor traffic, and the audience went
home with greatly increased sense OF
their responsibility for the continuance of
the immensely costly and wholly demor-
alizing business.
The Santa Fe railroad is enjoying a
very large freight business. Nine addi-
tional engines have been put to work be-
tween La Junta and Dodge City in the
last few days, and there is every prospect
that they will be needed for some time to
come. There is very large run OF stock
All the company's mines on the Santa
Fe branch are in operation.
The Field and Farm, of Denver, knows
good items when it sees them in its ex-
changes. We notice that the ENTERPRISE
contributed four very readable para
graphs to its last number-but the read
ers of the Field and Farm had no means
OF recognizing their origin. But that's
all right; the brethren Of the press are
welcome to our good squibs, and they can
give credit or not as best suits them.
"A few days since Mrs. J. T. Bleakley,
living three miles east of town, went to
make a call on Mrs. II. Best. During
her absence tramps visited the house and
made themselves quite at home. They
ate most liberally OF the good things in
Mrs.B's pantry and carried off MI. Bleak
ley's best hat and tobacco. And what
caused additional regret was the girls
chewing gum went with the tobacco,
When tramp puts chewing gum in the
same catalog with tobacco It seems to
point moral for the benefit of the girls.
10 chew gum makes an ugly girl uglier
and spoils the sweet look of a pretty one.

Special New Years Edition.

We ask the active cooperation of our
friends in making specially attractive
number of the New Years edition of the
ENTERPRISE. We wish that edition to
contain a short personal sketch of every
subscriber. Give us the date of your
coming to Otero county, from whence.
your business, and give your views OF
the climate, health and general advant-
ages Of your present as compared with
your former home. We wish every SUBJ
scriber to attend to this at once that we
may have the matter in hand in advance
of the day of publication, for arrange
ment, classification, etc, II you will
promptly send us this information you
will aid in making one OF the most read
able editions Of local paper ever issued
in Colorado.
The following will give orr readers an
idea of what is wanted for this New
Years edition:
~. G. Gracey came to Rocky Ford in
1889. His former home was New York,
from whence he moved to Pueblo in 1887.
Is manager of the Rocky Ford Milling &
Elevator Co.. and is kept busy as bee.
The climate of Colorado he much prefers
to that of N. Y. He has tried both the
Pacific and Atlantic coasts and believes
the Arkansas valley has as fine climate
as the U. S. affords. 1t has done much
for his health, as he could not live east"
The above is suggestive of such facts
as We wish for this special edition. And
will YOU attend to it AT ONCE? If this
New Years number is to be what it
should be our readers will have to do
their part, us requested.
The most complete and correct report
OF the commissioners doings is to be
found in the ENTERPRISE. 1t is paper
which should be in every household in
best to get it there. Help us by speaking
a good Word in its behalf to your neigh
bors who don't take it.
The county commissioners should be
warmly commended for their appropria-
alton of $500 for the benefit of the Ar
kansas Valley Fair association. The fair
has done most excellent work for the de-
vclopement of the resources OF Utero
county, and has been the means of keep
ing the attractions of the valley promin-
emily before the people of the state. The
commissioners in this generous aid have
shown just appreciation of the value of
the Fair association to the county.
From the commissioner proceedings
in this issne it.will be seen that the tax
levy for this year is the same as last. The
valuation is somewhat lower, however,
which will make the amount of taxes to
be collected less than for 1892. The
board which can figure to make mark
ed reduction in the amount of taxes our
itizens pay will will win immediate pop
ularity. That taxes are too high is the
universal opinion, and the best method
of making reductions should be seriously
80 sidered. Our columns are open to
any of our readers who have suggestions
which will tend to solve the problem.
