ALL TOLD TO GIVE THANKS.
Annual Proclamation L, Issued by thu
President.

Irettutht.
Washington. u. c.. Oct. 2s.-The
President, after the Cabinet meeting
today, issued the following Thanks
giving proclamation:
by the President Of the United States.
A Proclamation:
''The approaching November brings
to mind the customs OF our ancestors,
hallowed by time and rooted in our
most sacred traditions of giving thanks
to Almighty God for all the blessings
he has vouchsafed TO us during the
past year.
Few years in our history have ar
forded such cause for thanksgiving as
this. We have been blessed by abund-
ant hnrvests, our trade and commerce
have been wonderfully Increased, our
public credits been improved and
strengthened, all sections of our com
mon country have been brought to-
gether and knitted into closer bond of
national purpose and unity.
THE skies have been for n time
darkened by the cloud of war, but as
we were compelled to take up the
sword In the cause of humanity, we
are permitted to rejoice that the con-
fiict has been of brief duration, and
the lOSStS We nuft nAh W biVhi -
though grievous and important. have
been so few. considering the great re-
suits accomplished as to inspire us
with gratitude and praise to the lord
OF hosts. We may laud and magnify
his holy name. that the cessation of
hosfilities came so soon as to spare
both sides the countless sorrows and
disasters that attend protracted war.
II do, therefore. invite all my fellow
citizens. as well those at 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 IA day of national thanksgiving, to
come together In their several places
of worship for n service of praise and
thanks to Almighty God for all the
blessings of the year: for the mildness
of the seasons and the fruitfulness Of
the soil. for the continued prosperity OF
the people; for the devotion and valoI
of our countrymen. for the glory OF
our victory and the hope of righteous
peace. and To pray that the divine
guidance which has brought hereto
fore to safety and honor. may I've grn
ciously continued in the years to come
..In witness whereof.

THE STAR ROUTES.
THEY ARE VERY TROUBLESOME
Contractors Bid Too Low and Try 10
Make up on the subeontrnctors-

Washington. ID. c.. Oct 3O.-The i'm
mcnsp work OF transporting the malls
throughout the United States is dealt
with In the annual report Of Second
Assistant Postmaster General William
s. Shallenbcrger, which was made
public to-day.
The main feature of the report is a
vigorous arraignmcnt Of existing star
rJu'c methods Mr.. Shellenberger re-
fcrs TO the present system OF specula-
tive bidding for star routes AS dis
creditable to the government
lie says the bidders cut little un-
der the regular contract prices and risk
being able to sub-let at profit. The
competition results In the greater part
OF these contracts being awarded Mt ex-
tremely low rates. the accepted bid
ders or their agents often using deceit
and misrepresentation in securing sub
contracts from poor and ignorant men
as principals and sureties.
The report recites the subsequent
steps, saying the sub-contractors, IL
complaining OF greater requirements
than they understood, are threatened
with the penalties by the contractors.
or, IL the sub-contractors attempt ser
vice with inadequate equipment fines
are imposed upon them. Finally, if
the sub-contractors abandon the
routes or the departments are com
PEELED TO remove them and employ
temporary service. the cost OF which
Is charged to the contractors. the latter
In turn take action against the sub
contractors. who may lose the little
property they have.
The conclusion drawn Is that the
profit to contractors must be consider
able, and II the department could deal
directly with the men who do the work,
the total amount paid by the govern
ment being put into the service with
out any margin TO speculative middle
men, II would undoubtedly procure bet
ter mail service.
Then there are the INSCRIPTIONS
contractors" 1t is added, "who fail to
pay their carriers. which causes hun
dreds OF claims against the contractors
filed In this office, and necessitates vo-
luminous correspondence 10 get the
claims adjusted. Again, there will be
bidder who. In his inexperience and
eagerness. Will make his bids Mt rates
lower than those for which he can Sc
cure sub-contracts. There follows n
general failure to perform the service
awarded him, and the department is
put TO the trouble and expense of mr.
ranging temporary service and relct-
ting the contracts"

who allowed themselves to become
the prey of INSCRIPTIONS forgers. This
refers especially to the officers deput-

1t is believed even now that important
facts are being concealed In order TO

The Dreyfus decision seems to have
delayed solution of the Cabinet cri-
sis. NJ. Defreycinet is again hesitnt-
ing to accept the portfolio of the min

played In the Dreyfus case 1t would
be inadvisable for two Protestants,
