TOMORROW is Thanksgiving

served all over the country. There
are none so poor-so humble in
this life-but have much to be
thankful for. Even those who be-
lieve that we live under a govern
ment that is run III the interest of
the rich and influential have cause
to return thanks it is no worse
than it is. Our people, land and
country are IN happy condition
compared to what millions of peo-
pie in other lands and countries
are. Here we have multiplied
blessings that others have not
Here we can worship God accord
ing to our own conscience or BIAS
pheme His name if we choose.
Here we have liberty of speech and
freedom of action. With all the
faults of our government it is the
freest and best ON earth, and in
this land living is easier made
than in any other country, and
our own happiness and prosperity
depends largely upon our own fru-
gality and thrift.

IF the soldier boys are treated
right and fed good, wholesome
food, why is it they are clamoring
for discharges3 Nobody but the
officers are wanting to remain in
the service. The soldiers want to
come home. They are sick, tired
and disgusted. Whenever Uncle
Sam wants volunteers again these
boys will not be in a rush to enlist.
Nothing but actual invasion of our
country will induce them to leave
comfortable homes for the hard
ships, privations and mistreatment
the common soldier is forced to en-
dure. This government has al
ways had cause to be proud of the
volunteer sOldiery, but the volun-
teer has but little cause to feel
proud of this government The
soldiers of despotic powers are
treated no worse.

COMPLICATIONS ARIsINu.

The London Chronicle makes
vigorous kick against the exclusion
trade policy adopted by the United
States in Porto Rico and which it
is the intention of the government
to adopt in the Philippine islands.
The Chronicle says:
1t is a rather disquieting fact
that no sooner is American author
ity firmly established over Porto
Rico than a medieval navigation
law is passed killing at single
stroke important Canadian ship
ping trade with the island and
making it impossible for any but
American ships to trade between
America and her new colony.
This is not an open door, 1t
is door shut, bolted, locked and
barricaded. The Canadian COM
missioners naturally feel keenly
the blow thus dealt their urtry
and regard it as a bad augury for
success in the negotiations now in
their hands.
A much graver question is
ahead, however: Does the Amer
lean government propose to estab-
lish an open door in the Philip
pines or propose to shut it fast
with an obscurantist policy worse
than that of France, Russia, or
even Spain herself?
We are nation having much
the longest, widest colonial expe-
rience Our colonies are not only
the most civilized, but the best
and most loyal and prosperous col
onies in the world. By our meth
DDS, out of colonies we have created
two great, virtually independent
nations. What has the opposite
policy done? 1t has created the
colonies of France, where there is
30 settlement of Frenchmen worth
mentioning, where the resources
Of the mother country are swal-
lowed up as if by the bottomless
swamp.
These facts are so we'll known
in Germany, country where the
principle OF protection is hardly
less revered than in Washingt ton
itself, that as we announce to-day
an open door in Asia, it has
Germany's complete approval.
Kiao Chau will be open, free to
the commerce of foreign nations.
America can not have driven
out the iniquitieS of Spanish rule
only to retain lts ignorance and
make commercial subjects.
Deep disap. 2intment would be
felt Throughout the British en-
pire-disappointment equal to that
now experienced by Canadian COM
merce-if the first result of the
sympathy and support of the
United States which this nation
has given with its whole heart and
would under al circumstances
have given, should be to close one
more door to manufactures and
open trade which is the only true
advance agent of prosperity, the
sign of civilization and the guar
antee of peace

ADMIRAL DEWEY says if Ameri-
ca doesn't retain all the Philippine
islands there will be no end of
trouble with the inhabitants and
with Spain. Well, it does look
like we have gotten our foot into
it, sure enough. If we don't, and
if we do. we will have trouble.
