THANKSGIVING DAY.


Thursday, November 80, is the day
set apart by the president Of the United
States, and also by the governor Of
Kansas, as a day of thanksgiving and
prayer. The custom originated with
the Puritans the year after their set
Element at Plymouth. They had suf-
fered great privatiOns, and, the year
following, their labOrs being crowned
with success, and a bOUntiful harvest
garnered, they observed a day Of
thanksgiving to Almighty God.
Since then the custom has grown
more and more in public favor. State
after state followed the example, and
the custom became so general that
years ago the national executive led
the way, and, governors falling in line,
the date set by the president was ad-
opted by the executives Of all the com
monwealths. Thanksgiving day now is
national and its observance is general.
1t is thoughtful; it IS wise; and, linked
as it is with our colonial and national
history is indicative of a belief in
Divine Providence shaping the destiny
Of nations Its observance is an ex-
preston Of both patriotism and faith.
One Of the customs of the earlier OBJ
seTvance Of thanksgiving was that of
family gathering and reunion. Around
the bearthstOne of the old homestead
gathered the sons and daughters, child
rem and grand children of the aged
parents. 1t was an occasion of Joy and
miTth with the younger members of
the family, and of thanksgiving tinged
with deep emotion to the more mature
in years, as the thought of the old peo-
pie trembling with age caused them to
anticipate the inevitable.
This observance linked one gener-
alton with another Often it was the
case that the patriarch was a veteran
of the colonial wars, and, later, of the
war of independence. This custom was
the annual strengthening of the three
fold cOrd' of family ties, patriotism
and faith that is not easily broken
This yearly turning Of the hearts of
the fathers to the children, and of the
children to the fathers is an evangel
that augurs we'll for race and national
longevity. Sons and daughters are
thus linked with departed fathers and
mothers, departed heroes and departed
saints
The more general, the more in keep
ing with Old-time observance this Gus
tom is regarded, and celebrated, the
better for the individual, the state and
the nation. 1t is a memorial, a monu-
ment more enduring than marble OF
bronze, and like the Passover of the
Jews, celebrating an exodus from old
world tyranny to new world religious
and political liberty. 1t is the flame of
the torch Of the BarEholdi statue
Liberty Enlightening the World y
From the early founders of this ANNUAL
observance came the declaration Of in
dependence and the constitution of
the United States. It was the life
germ of the acorn that made possible
the mighty oak.

According to report, there is q cur
reney famine in New York city. This
condition exists in spite of the fact
that the money trust Of the metrOpO-
lis has called in s1O5,OOO,OOO of call
loans since July 1. The secretary of
the treasury proposes to relieve the
situation by the purchase Of 5000,
900 in bonds and thereby throw that
much into circulation. OF course, Wall
street must be taken care Of no mat
ter what becomes Of the rest Of the
country. Suppose New York gets the
money, the bankers would lock it up
and hold it for heavy rates Of interest,
and the relief would depend entirely
on the sweet viii Of the ShylOcks of
the street.

1t is idle for Secretary Gage to advo-
cate expansion Of national bank eircu-
latiOn- 1t is we'll known that national
banks already in existence do not issue
near up to the amount they are allowed
by the law. Unless a law is passed
requiring the banks to issue currency
up to the legal limit the situation
would not be relieved. All who have
studied the subject know that the policy
OF the national banks is to make money
scarce, not plenty. The national banks
are all in the money trust.

Ponder This

Don't 60 abroad to buy something
when you have a few dollars to spend
and then ask your home merchant to
sell you on time when you are broke.
When you have a bill unpaid with your
home merchant, who has given you
credit and extension Of time and &C
cepted small part payments; don't take
your cash to the city TO spend with a
stranger for you are using the money
OF your friend, the home merchant, to
build up the business Of a stranger,
who has no interest in your town, and

goods which he guarantees with his

England purchased German friend
ship by selling out Samoa. Anticipat-
ing need Of American friendship she
stood aloof in the Spanish-American
war. That there was an unwritten
deal with the state department at
Washington is quite probable, and the
terms are now being complied with on
our part by the Mckinley sdministra-
ton. It must not be forgotten that
England is always selfish in professed
friendship. Hers Is purely a CONNER
cial conscience.

Occasionally the fOoI-kiIler runs a
ship on a reef The United States
cruiser Charleston, which has been pa
trolling the northern coast of Luzon,
was wrecked on a reef last Tuesday
and is q total wreck. The members Of
the crew were saved. The Charleston
belongs to what is known as the "new
navy" that is, it was very expensive.
The FilipinOs cannot do our soldiers
any harm, but the climate Of the Phil
ppines can. And now it seems that the
reefs and storms Of Luzon are doing
what the Spanish battIeship could not
do. There was no reason whatever for
the Charleston patroIling the northern
coast Of LuzOn. The Charleston was
simply a lOafer, and the storms and
reefs got her. Meanwhile, more men
are being sent to the Philippines every
day. When viii the people make a
roar about this fOOlishness that viii

that is more than seIf-government-
is despOtism. Allow all the governed
an equal voice in the government, and
that, and that only, is seIf-government.
What L do say is that no man is good
enough to govern another man, with
out the others consent. I say this is
the sheet anchor Of American republi-
canism-the declaration Of independ-
ence. L hate slavery because it de-
prives our republican example of its
just influence in the world; and enab-
les the enemies of free institutions,
with plausibility, to taunt US as hypo-
critics; causes the real friends of free
dom to doubt our sincerity; and espe-
cially because it forces so many really
good men among ourselves into an
open war with the very fundamental
principles of civil liberty, CRITICS ing
the declaration Of indepence, and in
sisting that there is no right principle
Of action but self interest. Let Us then
turn this government back into the
channels in which the trainers Of the
constitution originally placed it. Let
Us stand firmly by each other. If we
do not do so We are turning in the con-
trary direction. The assertion that
''sll men are created equal" was placed
in the declaration Of independence for
future use. It's authors meant to be
as, thank God, it is now proving itself
a stumbling block to all those who, in
after times, might seek to turn a free
people back into the hateful paths Of
despOtism- They knew the proneness
Of prosperity to breed tyrsnts, and they
meant when such should reappear in
this fair land and commence their vo-
cation, they should find left for them
st least one hard nut to crack

The wisdom Of bimetallism is more
and more apparent. In spite of the
prOdigiOus increase Of the worlds pro
ductiOn Of gold in the last few years,
there is just as much Of a scramble for
If as ever. The war in South Africa is
likely to shorten up the output of the
Rand district, the greatest gold camp
in the world. Reserve gold shipments
to India, to butress the single standard
in that country, has shortened the Eng
lish supply. The single stsndarn ma
tons are making strenuous efforts to
corner all the gold in sight, and, con-
seqUently, a panic may ensue. If bi-
metallism was the rule the situation
would be different. You cannot cor
ner both metals.
