She Has Many More Reasons for Fe e;inc
Grateful than Had Her Ancestors.
The season for special Thanksgiving
should make us consider as to whether
we are really and truly thankful for
all III blessings, whether we have not
grown go accustomed to them that we
accept them as but our due. The
housekeepcr of all persons has much
to be thankful for above her Puritan
ancestors who instituted this festival.
Those homespun days, the good old
times" as they are mistakenly called,
should have little charm for the house
wife of to-day. The modern improve
ments III her home stand out In sharp
contrast to the primitive arrangements
in vogue one or two centuries ago.
The turning of a faucet and the in
slant guEhing forth of hot or cold wa,
ter is a radical improvement upon the
old bucket aud well, or even the later.
day pump. The modern housekeepers
can hardly comprehend the labor that
even this ono feature of housekeeping
must have entailcd In days gone by.
We also find it much easier to buy our
cottons and woolcns in the shops ratl-
er than toll i'll spinning them our
selves, as they did. We should be
thankful that we are commencing to
learn how to live. that the mother nay
know what will keep hez children
well, and how to use the modest al
lowanee so that it will cover the ex-
pense of living with a little margin
against the rainy day likely to come
to US all.

couragcd.

Chicago, Nov. i7.--A Washington
special to the Record says:
1t would he much easier aor Canada
to reach an understanding with the
United States upon various questions
that interest them both If there were
4 single person to deal with at WASH
inston. Too many cooks spoil the
broth. On all matters of dispute it is
necessary for hotll governments to
give and fake. On some of them Cam
ada wants the greater concessions. on
others the United States, and it would
be an easy matter TO strike a bargain
u. as Mr.. Blaine suggested several
wears ago, they were all thrown into
the same pot. AT present Mr.. Laurier
and his associates find half u dozen
pots q boiling, and the keeper of every
pot thinks he is the most important.
Mr.. Foster has charge of the sealing,
controversy, and insists that Canada
shall accept the contentious of the
United States and enter into an agree
ment for the protection of that sort
of international property. The Cana
dams don't carc much for the seals
anyhow. They have very little inter-
est in them, and. if they had, nearly
three-fourths of the men who are en-
gagged in sealing under the Canadian
Gag are citizens of the United States.
The Canadians would therefore be
glad to yield OH the sealing question
provided they could get some sort of
compensation from the-United States
in another direction. If MFR. Foster,
for example, Ind the reciprocity nego-
tiations also in charge he might be.
able to make a good trade on both
lines. but Mr.. kasson is the reciproc-'
Try man. and wants. to make as favor
able a treaty for the United States as
possible. Somebody else has the fish
cries and somebody else the alien labor
laws. while the secretary of the treas
nry and the attorney general have the
bonded privilege in their control. so
that the Canadians find that they have.
to treat with a different person on ev-
cry subject. That not only prolongs
the controversy, but makes an agree
mcnt almost impossible.
Mr.. Laurier and his associates have
had an agreeable reception and have
made a most favorable impression.
They have had but little time to them
selves. Every hour when they have
had no business engagements has been
occupied with some form of e%ntertain-
ment. But thus far they have received
little encouragement in the matters
that arc nearest their hearts. 1t may
be that something will come OUT OF
their visit, but the prospect is not
hopeful, unless, MS suggested, one man
is appointed to deal With them OH nll.
subjects, SO that they can have a
broader range for trading.

Plans of Lead aud Dcadwool for a
WNtcr Supply.

Spearfish, Nov. 16.-TTNe business
men of this city and the farmers living
along Spearfish river are Incoming
greatly exercised over the proposed
attempt of Lead and Deadwood citi-
ems to appropriate a large quantity
of water from that stream. A specinl
mass meeting of nil those concerned
has been called 10 meet next week to-
consider some means of defending the
rights of the people. If 400 inches of
water are taken from the river it will
mean the loss of thousands of dollars
to the city and valley in each year.
During the dry ummer months every
drop of water is taken put of the
Sktream and distributed 6Ter the land
down the valley for irrigation pnr-
poses. 1T there was twice the volume
of water flowing ut that time it would;
not be my TOO much. 1t isSestimatcd
that the mills and factories i'll this
city would be effected greatly in tho
loss of power. The Speartish Touring
mill, 1t ia estimlted, would lose one
sixth of its power. Figuring on this
basis, there would be as great@a loss
n the crop yield down the valley.
Spearfish valley Is probably the best
and richest farming district IL the
Black Hills and it is made such by
means of its perfect system Of irriga-s
