THAFKSGIVING.

Once more Thanksgiving day came and
has gone. AS day of universal rever-
ence and Thanksgiving, it is pleasurable
to note that it Is appropriately recognized
throughout the land. Since the martyr
ed Lincoln issued the first national proc
lamation, its observance has become
more general each year, until now there
is scarcely a village or hamlet In the
country that does not have its union re-
ligious services. 1t is time when the
souls of the people are stirred with char
liable impulses, and the poor and af-
ficted are remembered with substantial
gifts.
From the proper observance of the day
many lessons of value are taught and the
world Is benefited thereby. What is a
more fitting example for us to follow,
than the lesson in charity, which we de-
rive from the celebration OF each Thanks
giving day? We note our selfish inclina-
tons, and attempt to live for others as
we'll. We rnay have acquired habit of
penuriousness; desire to get all we can
and keep all we get This evil is found
to exist, not only in individuals but in
society and politics, and even in the
church AS selfshness abounds among
as as individuals, in just such proportion
will it exist in corporations, communities
and statea. To eliminate its effects, we
must remove the cause Those who
make society, money, fame, Or what not,
their idol-their be-all and end-a1l of ex-
istence-become veritable barnacles.
They take from their fellows everything
that will forward their own selfish inter-
ests and give nothing in return. This
total devotion to self, stunts and shrinks
their finer sensibilities. Sympathy, af-
fection, benevolence, pity and kindred
virtues become unknown quantities in
their makeup. Each opportunity to
speak kind word, relieve the suffering,
lessen the burden Of the down-trodden,
or give to the needy, that is allowed to
pass by unnoticed, lessons the power OF
enjoying that which we have. Charity
aud unselhshness go hand in hand, and
do not mean merely the disbursement of
money and other valuables among those
less literally endowed than ourselves; it
means more Kind words and pleasant
smiles cost only the effort, and are so Of
ten absent where wealth and luxury
abound. Charity for the faults and
foibles noticed in others would add much
to the worlds happiness, and in SO do
ing we bring pleasure to ourselves. Self
ishness relieves us of the full measure of
enjoyment; and charity and unselfshness
necessitate self-sacrifce. Through life it
should be constantly borne in mind that
every heroic act requires selfsacrifce;
that every charitable impulse carried in
to effect, necessitates self-denial. With
the return of each Thanksgiving day,
these thruths are brought to our notice.
By the proper appliation Of their teach
ings the world becomes better with each
succeeding year. 1t is indeed great day
among the American people and its prop
er observance should be encouraged by
all.

TWO CONSISTENT REPUBLICANS

Mr.. Lord is the most unobjectionable
candidate that can be entered in the
coming senatorial contest against Mr.
Dolph. Thus far, not word has been
said against his ability, learning, iuteg-
rity or fitness for the position. Of Mr.
Lords political fidelity, and the solid
claims he has thus established upon the
confidence and support of the republican
party, it is scarcely necessary to speak.
Ia its eyes his record is peculiarly fault
less- Simply because he was elected
governor, some are inclined to oppose
his candidacy, because, if he enters the
senatorial race, he will be successful, and
they feel As though he ought to fill the
place to which he was elected. This is
simply no argument at all, and many of
those who are urging it seem to forget
that Harrison R. Kincaid was elected on
same ticket with Mr.. Lord, and that, in
the event the latter is chosen senator, Mr..
Kincaid would fill the executives chair
with dignity and honor to the state
Mr.. Kincaid has been identified with the
interests of Oregon for over forty years.
He has always been known as consist
ent republican, and his successful busi-
ness career, together with his long resi-
dence i'll the state, is conclusive evidence
especially to those who know him best
that he is in every way familiar with the
needs of the people, and in all respects
competent to fill the honorable position.
He is one of the known journalists in
the state, and has been prominent and
powerful figure in the sphere of his pro-
fession. He has advanced with the
growth OF the country, and has that
knowledge OF its needs and future posi-
bilities can only be gained by such a long
continued residence and careful noting
Of its history as Mr.. Kincaid in the
course of his newspaper career, has ex-
e-cised. His editorial history shows him
to have broad, Intelligent grasp of re-
publican principles, and bespealS in him
a thorough htness for the high post OF
honor which he would be called upon to
fill III the event AIr. Lord is chosen to
succeed Mr. Doiph.

COTTON PLANTERS TRUST.

New York World, Oct. %. J

Members Of the Cotton Exchange
here aud In other cities are somewhat
excited over the proposition to form 2
gigantic trust of all the cotton rajsers
! Of She South, which Is being advocated
| by John T. Roddey, a prominent
broker Of this city. The exchanges
are opposed 20 the scheme. II such
trust is formed the brokers say that
their business will! be ruined, 50 far as
exercising any control Of the market Is
concerned. The trust would be able TO
practically dictate the price Of cotton 10
| the open market.
Mr.. Roddey's plan is for every cotton
| farmer, 10 matter how small, to become
q shareholder. When the crop Is gath
cred each member shall turn into the
trust one bale out OF every five or SiX
bales raised by him, or il the crop Is Il
small one, then one bale out OF every
seven or eight shall go 10 the trust ibe
amount OF cotton thus placed IN the
| hands Of the trust shal! re held by the
| latter as a sort Of balance wheel 10 tne
market. The farmer will market his
crop, less the amount turned over I"
! the trust, as best suits him. The trust
supply will be held until the market
price Shall be high enough to warrant
its sale, and the return ola good profit.
| Mr. Roddey feels sure that the adoption
OF his plan and the formation OF trust
as proposed, will at once put the price
! Of coitou up to about eight cents from
the present price which is about i've
ccuts. This would De an immediate
and material benefit to the farmer, who
would also benefit by the dividends
which it is expected will accrue to HIM
on his trust shares.
