DR.. L. w. Babcock of Wadena,
is meeting with strong support and
strenuous opposition in his speaker
ship contest. Representative john
son of Hennepin is, at present, his
strongest competitor. 1t has been
reported that the state administra-
ton is opposed to DR.. Babcock, but
the HERALD is loath to believe it
for the reason that it is matter
which the Governor should
have no more desire to influence
than he would the organization or
personel of the Supreme court.
The legislature is coordinate
branch of the government, wholly
independent of the executive. 1t
has been assumed, for the purposes
of this fight only, that DR.. Babcock
lis the candidate of the corporations,
proposition absurdly untenable.
He represents an agricultural con-
stituency, and it returned him after
a sharp and bitter fight. If he
were what it is now claimed he is,
a corporation representative, he
would have been defeated over
whelmingly.

THANKSGIVING.


In accordance with a custom
time honored and sacred the civil
authorities, the president of the
United States and the governor oi
Minnesota have designated this day
to be observed in special thanksgiv-
ing to Almighty God, the giver o1
all good and perfect gifts, for the
blessings of the past year. Every
individual, no matter what his con-
dition, has something for which he
should be thankful. One can hard,
ly conceive of one so completely be-
reft of every possible blessing that
his condition might not be worse
and from the fact it is not so there
is occasion for thankfuIness. To
most people, however, there is
abundant occasion for Thanksgiving
in greater or less degree. For phys
ical comforts, mental possibilities,
spiritual privildges-all these are
directly from the hand of over shad
owing Providence and special re-
cognation is due him. 1t is day
of gladness. but not designed to be
selfIShly 81. P,uaourr "a i. -, p.'
ness is ever intensified by sharing
it-and upon this day of all days
in the calendar those less favored
should be borne in mind and
some effort and sacrifice made to
add to their reasons for thankful.
ness. Remember the poor and the
afflicted, and do whatsoever lays
within your power to ameliorate
their condition.
As a nation We have abundant
reason for thankfulnesS. Not only
has prosperity come to us in meas.
ure heretofore unparalleled, but
peace within our borders and with
all the world is a blessing for which
it is our bounden duty to show
forth our gratitude to the Ruler of
Nations.
The earth has brought forth her
increase lavishly, andthe labors of
the husbandman have been blessed
Famine and want are not within
our borders. We have enough and
to spare.
As a special cause of thankf ul-
ness as people is the tremendous
advance made, which seems to
mark a new era in the settlement
and adjustment of the worfd-old
friction and stiife between labor and
capital. The great anthracite coal
stike no longor exists. Fears of
suffering by reason of it have been
dispelled. As a nation we have
advanced along new lines in deal
ing with this complicated socialis-
tic question. Who may say that
the plan suggested and adopted is
not a district inspiration from the
Almighty and All-tnerciful Father,
In whose eyes all his children are
equal? Yes, these, and thousand
other blessings which will suggest
to even the casual thinker, will
present themselves as reasons for
special thanksgiving upon this day
set apart for the purpose.
1t is the observance of such occa-
sion that stamps us a christian ma
ton. Let us give thanks then for
all the blessings so munificently
showered upon US by almighty
God.

AN UNSoLvED MYSTERY.
Nine Sticks Of Dynamite Found in
Southwest Washington Store.

The finding of nine sticks Of dynamite
and fuse in the second hand furniture
store owned by Harry Davis & Son at AZ
street and Maine avenue southwest this
afternoon caused considerable excitement
When the proprietor discovered the sticks
of dangerous explosive in his place he be-
came alarmed and notified the police Lieut.
Hollinberger sent an officer to the store
and the dynamite was removed to the
fourth precinct station, and directions were
given that the bundle be handled with care
1t is not known how the sticks of dynamite
found their way to the store. They were
left there, the proprietor said, during his
absence at lunch.
Lieut.. Holinberger is satisfied that they
were not put there for the purpose of blow
ing up the store. 1t is his idea that the
explosive was stolen from some quarry near
the city, and that the person who had it
became alarmed and abandoned it. So far
as he could ascertain this afternoon no
persons acting suspiciously had been seen
about the neighborhood where it was found
The policemen in the precinct have been
directed to make a thorough investigation
of the affair The dynamite will be held at
the fourth precinct station for a claimant
Had the fuse been ignited there would prob
ably have been number of lives sacrificed
Lieut. Hollinberger hopes his officers will
be able to solve the mystery.

POSTAL SERVICE IN EAST.
Manila Editor Complains of Methods
in Iigan.
From the Manila Times.


From the Manila Times.
Democracia devotes a lengthy article to
the faults it has to find with the Manila
postal service. Among other matters it
states that hardly a day passes but that
complaints are received from it's subscrib-
ers in the provinces owing to their papers
not reaching them.
In nigan it would appear that people ex-
pecting letters have to proceed to the post
office and there pick out their own CORE
spondence,o, WHICH is consequently at the
mercy of all wh9 go there This entails also
a waste of time and considerable incon-
yenience. f,Dem0cra cia is of opinion that
the post office authorities should take
charge of the correspondence and see that
all mail matter, duly reaches those to whom
it is addressed,u BY SO doing there would
be less risk, asnat present, of correspond
ence andi: papers falling into improper
hands The Denocracia also notes that a
post officesis not looked upon as a paving
institutions az IN many towns in the United
States post Offices do not pay for them
selves. In regard to the Philippines. the
same paper is OF opinion that no retrench-
rnent shoHh bee undertaken which would
initiate AGainssnthe public good and wei
fare 10 zig
While SUCH: structures as these and others
are passed UPON the post Office, it is also
well to renember the tremendous dificuI-
ties with whieh-the postal department has
to contend Moreover, the service in the
Spanish days could not begin to coInnare
with the present under American direction
