A PROCLAMATION.


PROCLAMATION.
The season Is inighs!*hen, according
to the time-hallowed custom of our
people, the president appoints day as
the especial occasion for praise and
thanksgiving to God.
This Thanksgiving finds the people
still bowed with sorrow for the death
of great and good president. We
mourn President Mckinley because we
so loved and honored him, and the
manner of his death should awaken in
the breast of our people keen ankle
to for the country, and at the same
time a resolute purpose not to be driv-
en- by any calamity from the path OF
.tong, orderly, popular liberty which,
IS nation, we have thus far safely
trod.
Yet, in spite of this great disaster,
it is nevertheless true that no people
on earth have such abundant cause for
thanksgiving as we have. The past
year in particular has been one OF
peace and plenty. We have prospered
in things material and have beee able
to work for our own uplifting in things
intellectual and spiritual. Let us re-
member that, as much as has been Civ
en- us, much will be expected Of us,and
that true homage comes from the heart
as well as from the lips and shows it
self in deeds. We can best prove our
thanksgiving t, the Almighty by the
way in which on this earth and at this
time each of us does his duty to his
fellow men.
Now, therefore, I, Theodore Roose-
yelt, president of the United States,do
hereby designate as day of general
thanksgiving, Thursday, the 2Sth Of
this present November, and do recon-
mend that throughout the land the
people cease from their wonted occu-
pations and at their several homes and
places of worship,reverently thank the
Giyer of all Good, for the countless
blessings of our national life.
In witness whereof, have herennto
set my hand and caused the seal of the
seal of the Uni led States to be affixed.
Done at the city of Washington this,
I'd day of November, il the year of our
Lord one thousand pine hundred and
one, and Of the independence of the
United States one hundred and twen-
ty-sixth.
