tude for the Divine goodness.
All minor differences of religions and po-
Hical and religious faith disappear before
the majesty of Gods goodness and faith in
Him, and in free country that is common
and dear to all.
It Is not well or wise to say that God has
favored this people above all other peoples,
for such would be Wanting of ones self
above others. 1t is competent, though, to
reflect that God has raised up on this con-
tinent within an incredibly short period a
great and mighty nation; that He has caused
His face to shine upon them and made them
to flourish as green bay tree by the waters
edge.
He who receives with thankless heart
has no appeal to confidence of his fellows
and Is unworthy the esteem of any who are
reputed to be good. Ingratitude is the priv
ilege of kings, as it has been said, and of
those who think their pleasures the highest
obligation of their nature.
Yet this people is not ungrateful. It is a
God-fearing people. Whether north or
south. or east, or west al looking from the
whose light tends to strengthen the ever and
forever of mans existence. Whether in
snow-girt Alaska, or amid the sunshine of
the southland; OF watered by Atlantic or Pa
cifc-here and there and in all places of the
states, Thanksgiving day is honored and OBJ
served in spirit and in letter. And this
year, first of all the years, the observance of
it is borne over the waves to islands where
now floats the tri-color flag of freedom.
Blessed is that nation whose God is the
Lord, for from such He will withhold no
thing that Is good.

wisdom Of capturing Simmons and

Great, too, was the glory that fell to
Slane's share The gunners would have
made him drunk thrice day for at

his own regiment complimented him

So Many Important Matters to Be
Considered That Time Will
Be Short
If Action Is Deferred Until the
Regular Session in De-
cember.
The Withdrawal of Speaker Reed
Will Also Make Considerable
Difference.

WASHINGTON, May 5.-There is a
growing belief among prominent mem
bers of congress that the president will
call congress to meet in extraordinary
sessions this fall, probably in October
The questions which will come before
the next congress for settlement, in
Guiding as they do everything growing
out of our possessions acquired as a re-
suit of the war with Spain and the gen.
eral legislation including that relating
to currency reform, the Nicaragua
canal, and the merchant marine are Of
such Importance that the president is
said to regard it as necessary that con-
5ress should meet earlier than the ses-
sion IN December, in order to get the
work under way. The retirement of
Speaker Reed will naturally entail con-
siderable delay in committees in tho
house as it is customary to allow a new
speaker four or five weeks to make up
his committees and this furnishes an
additional reason why congress should
be convened before December. Of the
gress who are going abroad this sum
ner, the president has particularly liz
quired as to the length of their stay and
has limited that it was advisable thas
they should be back in the early fall, 81
necessity for an extra session might
arise.
Currency Committee Meeting.
With others it is said he has discussed
the subject and, moreover, it was upon
the presidents direct suggestion that
caucus committee appointed by the
house Republicans to formulate cur
rency reform measure met when it did.
There had been talk of postponing the
meeting until fall, but the president
suggested that it would be well to for
mulate plan as early as possible and
this statement was made to the mem
bers when they met at Atlantic City,
as having come direct from the pres
ident, together with the further state
ment that the president might call con-
gress in extraordinary session in the fall
for the purpose of, among other things,
passing currency reform measure.
Representative Dalzell of Pennsylvania
and Representative Curtis of Kansas,
both of whom are members of the eau
Gus committee, saw the president dur
ing the day. When the latter left the
White House he said he had no direct
information regarding an extra session
but that he had all along regarded an
extra session as more than probable.
At the White House no confirmation
could be obtained of the statement that
the president at present contemplates
calling congress together in the fall.
