DISSATISFIED CUBANS.
1hey Think the Com ng Census scheme
to Deprive Them of 1helr Inde-
pendence.

HAVANA, Now 2S 1t is reported
1000 Cuban insurgents have taken to
the woods n the province of Pinar Del
Rio, and are preparing to fight for
Cuban Independence, which they be-
lieve is in jeopardy. The report caused
great excitement here. An uprising
against the Americans is said to be
planned for Thanksgiving day. The
American authorities have their eyes
open, and are keeping in close touch
with the situation.
The anti-American feeling in Cuba
is due to the feeling that the island is
to be buncoed out of independence.
The accusation has been made that
the census of the island will be taken
with the ulterior design of represent
ing that the native Cubans were in the
minority, and that the desire for an
nexation was widespread.

THANKSGIVING PROCLAMATION.

The First One Was Made by John Han
cock In 1890.
"Forever, be his name accursed of
men and his crime be the associate
of his memory" was the cry of the
people of the United States upon the
exposure of Benedict Arnold, one
hundred and nineteen years ago
The story of his treason is known by
every American and always will be
known in the years to come. The
dead past cannot always bury its
dead; the living past sometimes
christens them.
Following close on the revulsion
of feeling and universal contempt
expressed for Arnold, came another
emotion none the less sincere and
genuine. 1t was gratitude to God
that He had saved the country.
Probably no event in American his
tory has produced such u iversal
excitement. The feeling was gen.
eral that it was only by the inter
yention of Providence that the army
was saved and the fu .ure of this
liberty loving country made secure.
Men and women trembled when
they learned of the great danger
they had been in. They cursed
Arnold and then prayed fe:vently
and thankfully.
So great was the excitement and
so intense was the feeling of graft
tude to God that congress appointed
the seventh day of December, 1880
eleven weeks after the capture OF
Andree), as a day of Thanksgiving
for the whole people. The states
followed the example of congress,
Governors setting aside the same
day as holiday for the observance
of the cause.
John Hancock was Governor of
Massachusetts at this time and his
proclamation reflects the spirit OF
the time, calling particular attention
to "the late remarkable interposl'
tion of His watchful Providence In
rescuing the person of our comman-
der-in-chief and the army from i'm
minenU dangers, at the moment
when treason was ripened for eXecu-
tion.n
The message concludes with: "God
save he people of the United
States
Americans have found much since
this first proclamation for which tC
be grateful, but there is no parallel il
history to such a gigantic treason as
that of Arnold and no occasion tol
such heartfelt gratitude as was fell
by the first Americans fighting fol
life and liberty,

POLITICAL SITUATION.
1t Is Believed Some Important Move
to BE Made by the Goebei side
kar.y This Week.

FRANKFORT, KY, Nov. 2S.-A quiet
Sunday brought lull in the political
situation to all outward appearances.
There were no significant develop
ments from Goeoel headquarters
though Goe bel and his managers re-
mained in conference during the day.
There is a general impression outside
that some important move Is to be
made by the Goebel side early this
week and it is generally supposed that
a mandatory injunction suit to prevent
the state election board from counting
the vote of jefferson, Knox and
johnson county will be part of it,
though this is not confirmed by any
one in authority. 1t is doubtful if
Gov. Bradley would recognize Goebel
as governor if given "a cert ficate Of
election by the state election board
unless their action was in obedience
to ruling of the court. In that
event it is believed he would resist
no further, but advise Taylor
to contest before the legislature.
Neither Bradley, Taylor nor any
other republican leaders believe
the court of appeals, in the face of its
decision in the Nelson county case Sat
urday, will grant an injunction and
were Sunday more confident than ever
that the state election board will give
Taylor certificate of election. In
Taylor circles it is claimed that two of
the three state commissioners Ellis
and Pryor, will vote to stand by the
vote in every county as it appears on
the face of the returns.
