Washington. Nov. 4.--President Cleve-

proclamation. 1t reads as follows:
BY the President of the United States:
The people Of the United States should
never be unmindful of the gratitude they
owe the God of nations for His watchful
care, which has shielded them from dire
disaster and pointed out to them the way
Of peace and happiness. Nor should they
ever refuse to acknowledge with contrite
hearts their proneness to turn away from
Gods teachings and to follow with sinful
pride after their own devices.
To the end that these thoughts may be
quickened, it is fitting that on day es-
peclally appointed we should Join together
In approaching the throne Of grace with
praise and duplication.
Therefore, /, Grover Cleveland, president
of the United States, do hereby designate
and set apart Thursday. the 18th day Of
the present month of November, to be
kent and observed as a day Of thanks
giving and prayer throughout our land.
on that day let our people forego their
usual work and occupation, and, assem-
bled in their accustomed places of wor-
ship, let them with one accord render
thanks to the Ruler of the universe for our
preservation as a nation, and our deliv-
erance from every threatened danger; for
the peace that has dwelt within our
boundaries for our defense against dis

the same as it was last evening Mr..
Bryan, who left the house only once dur
ing the day, and then to attend the fu-
neral of a neighbor did not remain up
stairs as he did last night, but came down
into the library to receive the returns.
Some of the bulletins that came in were
of reassuring character and the demo-
cratic candidate plainly showed by his
manner, that he felt more ENCOURAGED
A number of friends who had held aloof
yesterday and to-day dropped in and chat
ted pleasantly with him. Mrs. Bryan also
helped entertain visitors. Like her hus-
band she seemed in good spirits Many
of the telephone messages from friends
and supporters concerning the result We're
answered by Mr.. Bryan personally. He
talked very conservatively, indicating in
his replies to these inquiries that official
counts In some states might be necessary
to determine the result.
Fictitious bulletins were read to a large
crowd of Bryanites in the business part
of Lincoln to-day giving the election to
the democratic candidates. They caused
much excitement and a parade with
Bryan's picture at the head was organ
lied. II marched for a few blocks. those
composing it cheering like mad.
Mr.. Bryan went to bed shortly before IN
o'clock. He said he would have no state
ment to make tonight.

SOUTH DAKOTA.

The state Close, But the Chances
Favor the Democrats.
Pierre, s. D., Nov. 4-The returns are
very slow and the indications are that
the state has perhaps gone less than LEGO
for either Bryan or Mckinley. All the
returns that have come in tonight show
Bryan gains. Lawrence county in the
center of the Black Hills, has just reported
a majority of 500 for Bryan. The repub-
licans had been claiming that county all
day. A majority of the counties seem to
have gone populist and the legislature
appears at this hour to have a populist
majority. The incomplete returns now
indicate that both populist congressman
are elected, and probably the populist
state officers. 1t may take the official re-
turns to decide South Dakota.
