The custom Of setting apart one day II
the year, for making to ascend on high
thanks for the bounties received in the
Interim between proclamations, has
come, in later years, to be somewhat
perverted into a day Of feasting and 9
It still retains sufficient of the pristine
favor to lead the finite mind to thoughts
Of infinity and to ponder for moment
In the whirl and hustle of busy life
ON the material things that have beer
ones portion and made life worth the
living. 1t is meet that thanks be offered
TO that great giver of all blessed gifts
for life itself and the pleasures and
promises thereof.
While opportunities in some walks OF
life have been somewhat circum-
scribed, the nation as a composite il
prosperous.
Bountiful crops and humming indus
tries have made it possible to carry on,
without substantial loss, a mistaken
war with dependents uesiring liberty,
hut we can be thankful that we have
the precepts of the forefathers a true
and definite history and a firm faith in
an inscrutable providence to guide us
Alright and lead US, as a nation, from
paths that go to confusion and ruin.
1t Is proper that we cease feasting
long enough to give thanks that we are
yet hberty-loving. God-fearing peo-
PIE. components Of the greatest republic
the world ever saw.
Let us all give thanks for the bene-
fits and blessings that have been our
successes without their additional bur-
dens, no opportunities without their
concomitant responsibilities!

There seems to be an entire lack of
policy with reference to the China sit
uatiOn, on the part Of all the powers
engaged in the controversy. The
United States has seldom had a pro-
nounced policy under the present ad-
ministration, eventuaiities being the
base Of all moves made and futurity
playing being the characteristic of all
sctions, taken. Now, in lieu of some
thing definite on which TO operate, the
powers have about decided to raze the
great wall Of Peking. Why. is not re-
lated in the dispatches. What their

The death of Senator Cushman x.
Davis, which occurred at his late resi-
dence in ST. Paul, removed from earth a
man who has been prominent in the
affairs of the nation and whose life
has been given over very largely to pub
lie matters. He was a man of strong
convictions and while he had personal
enemies, the fruit of animosities, polit-
ical and otherwise, which found lodge
ment in his own heart, he yet had warm
and loyal friends. His last conspicuous
service was on the peace commission,
at Paris, where he served with Judge
William r. Day, OF this city, arranging
the details of the terms of peace with
Spain. Death came to this man in pc
culiar form. A slight abrasion on one
foot and the contact of poisonous dye
from his black hose, produced blood
poisoning. Senator Davis was chair
man OF the committe on foreign rela-
tions, in the senate. and his place will
not be easy to fill.

That in the midst of life we are IL
death, is exemplified by story related
by Franklin Hall, in the Cleveland
Plain Dealers Washington special. Mr.
Hall says: When it became certain lat'
last week that Senator Davis must die
representatives of some of the Mime
Eota papers here went out to get inter
views with prominent men concerning
country. One OF the interviews Sc
cured was from Commissioner of In
ternal Revenue Wilson. of Ohio, who
was at that time alive and apparentl,
well. Mr. Wilson died "a hours befor,
Senator Davis did.

We will not stop to quarrel whether
Mr.. Mckinley carried North Carolina,
but will simply observe that if he did
he carried it by votes that were cast
by persons who could not read or write,
or their votes would have been counted
with others. Down in North Carolina
they believe that a fellow who doesn't
care enough about his country to read
or write the language spoken in any
parts of 1t, is not fit person to decide
who shall run the government. AS
North Carolina win not change the re-
suit, it makes little difference. and IL
the friends of the president desire that
he be known as the candidate who al
ways gets the votes of those who can
not read or write, II is believed no par
ticular objection win be made by the
Democratic committee. AS a matter Of
fact, il is the old race question, that
is again rearing its head and that will
not down. Only blind partisans in the
north refuse to see this question as 1t
ought to be seen. 1t is a greater ques-
tion than that Of the Philippine islands.

1t has been contended for some years
that the climate in this section is chang
ing, and there seems to be a great de-
gree Of merit in the contention. OF
course we have had blizzards and
sloppy weather and rain and sleet in
November of about every year, but sell
dom a thunder storm, followed by such
weather as we have had for the past
few days There is no stability about
our winters. The cold weather that we
have is not tempered for vegetation
by fall of snow for 1t has been some
years since we had a great deal of
snow, and for at least twenty years
there has not been the deep snow in
this latitude that prevailed in former
years. Winters are more unsettled than
they were in the boyhood days of some
of US. 1t is now peculiar weather. No
one can, with any degre Of safety, cal
cuiate for more than one day on a GER
tain kind of weather, and seldom more
than a few hours. The change has not
been for the better and has not added
to the comfort of the people who inhabit
this zone.

Thanksgiving trade was extremely
heavy in all lines, and in spite of the
fact that heavy supplies Of poultry had
been laid in by dealers, everything was
cleaned up before the closing hours in
the evening. In fact some dealers were
sold out of turkeys early in the day
and many others had nothing but large,
heavy birds on hands.
Buyers who waited until q late hour
expecting TO get lower prices were dis
appointed, for prices were maintained
to the last and the less desirable stock
was all they had to select from.
There are no changes noted in either
groceries or provisions. The stores
closed at 10 o'clock Thursday forenoon,
