GRAPE CULTURE.

The following is from the
Mena Democrat. The con-
ditions apply to this county
as we'll as almost all the
counties of the State.
Arkansas has hundreds of
hillsides that are unfit for
agriculture, but grow grapes
in profusion, from which the
finest wine of the United
States may be manufactured.
California has long recognize
ed this as her most profitable
industry, bringing millions
of dollars into the Golfers and
erriching her peasant citi-
zens who otherwise could
scarce have devised a means
of subsistence from the few
acres of rock ribbed incllnes
on which they Lived and call
ed home, that dearest spot
or earth. After January
first, Polk county and the
state in general may engage
in a legitimate industry that
will bring thousands of dol
lars into the pockets of her
poor citizens and make these
barren rock.covered hills
blossom into gardens and
vineyards that will not only
make them profitable and
beauteous to look upon, and
last but not least bring to us
that hardy class of thrifty
citizens so much needed here
the Germans. A few
years hence, western Arkan-
'sas will rank side by side
with California in her grape
industry.

THANKSGIVING DAY.

issued a proclamation in the
following language, asking
that the oath inst. be OBJ,
served throughout the lane
as a day of national thanks
giving.
1.-THE approaching Novem'
Der brings to mind the GUS
toms Of our ancestors, hal
lowed by time and rooted in
our most sacred traditions,
of giving thanks to Almighty
God for all blessings he has
vouchsafed to US during the
past year.
Few years in our history
have afforded such cause for
thanksgiving as this. We
have been blessed by abun-
dant harvests, our trade and
commerce have been wonder
fully increased, our public
credit has been improved and
strengthened, all sections of
our common country have
been brought together and
knitted into closer bonds of
national purpose and unity.
The skies have been for a
time darkened by the cloud
of war, but, as we were COM
PEELED to take up the sword
IN the cause of humanity, we
are permitted to rejoice that
the conflict has beer of brief
duration and the losses we
have had to mourn, though
grievous and important, have
been so few, considering the
great results accomplished,
as to inspire us with graft
tude and praise to the Lord
of Hosts. We may laud and
magnify his holy name that
the cessation of hostilities
came so soon as to spare both
sides the countless sorrows
and disasters that attend pro.
tracted war.
II do, therefore, invite all
my fellow-citizens, as we'll
those 1t home as those who
may be at sea or sojourning
in foreign lands, to set apart
and observe Thursday, the
Oath day of November, as a
dav of national thanksgiving;
to come together in their
several places Of worship for
a service of praise and thanks
to Almighty God for all the
blessings of the years, for
the mildness of the seasons
and the fruitfulness of the
soil, for the continued pros.
perity of the people, for de-
votion and valor of our coun.
trymeu, for the glory of our
victory and the hope of a
righteous peace, and to pray
that the divine guidance
which has brought us hereto,
fore to safety and honor may
be graciously continued in
the years to come"

Orders have been sent by the Navy
Department to our representatives at
Havana for the closing Of the contract
with the Wreckers now at work on the
Maine, and directing that salvage opera
tions shall be suspended. Accordingly
the wrecking tugs and barges will return
North as soon as practicable, the tattered
flag at the poop Of the Maine, which has
been flying since the night of the explo-
sion, will be hauled down, and our in
terest, save that of.s.a sentimental and
patriotic character, in the Maine will he
at an end. With regard to this decision
to abandon the wreck, the inference is
that our authorities are SO fully satisfied
as to the manner in which the destruc-
ton of the Maine was accomplished that
they do not feel the need Of any further
demonstration upon the subject. Should
the Spanish desire to seek confirmation
of their theory, however, by raising the
wreck, it is unlikely that there will be
any objections from Washington to their
doing SO. This government has nothing
to fear from any further investigation.
Our Board of Inquiry has reported, and
we feel safe in standing by the findings
of that excellent body of experts.
