bonding proposition. There was one
hundred and twenty-one votes cast,
about ten per cent of the vote OF the dis
trict, seventv-four were against bonding
and forty-seven in favor.
The vote was small, but enough to de-
feat the measure. The Board of Direct
ors must now rustic along as best they
can with the facilities at hand. The
voters of the District have decided they
prefer the present crowded and I'M
healthy condition of our schools rather
than the mourning Of any further indebt-
edness.
1t is to be regretted, perhaps, that
such is the decision of the people and
taxpayers, when the best interests of
the school children are considered
School rooms calculated to contain
about forty pupils, crowded with sixty
or seventy are too full for health, to say
nothing of the work of the teachers or
the educational advancement of the
children.

mitted the proposition to the taxpayers

and the voters have decided, which is
all there is to be said at the present
time,

Throw Up Your Hands!

These were the words that fell upon
the ear of w. d. Mulkey last Monday
morning about 6 o'clock as the muzzle
of pistol was showed against his face.
Mr.. Mulkey is the bicycle repairer
and machinest for A. S. Dam, and while
on his way to the shop before daylight
he was held up just in front of the High
school building and robbed OF $40, all
the cash upon his person at the time.
He said to a reporter: II never was so
badly scared in my life, and hope
shall never be subject to another such
experience.

THANKSGIVING 1902

There are special reasons why the
American people should observe the an
nual Thanksgiving festival this year.
For five years they have been enjoying
a period of unexampled posperity, and
the year just closing has been the most
remarkable of them all. The wheels Of
industry have run necessarily, the de-
mand for manufactured goods of all
kinds has out-run the capacity of pro-
duction, profits have been enormous,
labor has had uninterrupted employ
ment, of increased wages, bountiful har-
vests have rewarded the toll of husband
men, wealth has accumulated faster
than at any other period of the worlds
history, the public health has been
maintained, peace has prevailed, and
progress toward better conditions can be
seen in every department of society.
The people of this county have had a
share in all these blessings. 1t has been
good year for us all. The future Of
the country and town is already assured.
What we have long waited for, and
striven after in other years in hope and
fear, has come at last, and far more of
the same kind is in sight. If ever a
people had reason to be grateful, we are
that people. Once we walked by faith,
believing that our fertile valley would
be needed, and become rich and con-
tented section of this great state; now
we see that this was not an idle dream,
but prophetic of what is already being
realized.
1t is fitting that we should rejoice over
these evidences of prosperity. Partly
they are due to our own industry, pru-
dence and determination partly it is
due to those who bore us, and whose
race characteristics, tenacity, sobriety,
and accumulated wisdom, we inherit ;
but more than all else it is due to the
great Giver of every good and perfect
gift, who has cast our lines in pleasant
places, and to whom we should lift up
grateful hearts, filled with devoutest
thanksgiving.

is CORRECTLY OBSERvED7

Thanks living Day is an heirloom de.
cended to the Nation from the day OF
John Carter and the Pilgrim Fathers.
President Washington first proclaimed
it National Holiday. To President
Lincoln belongs the honor of setting
aside the last Thursday of November OF
each year for its observance.
The first thanksgiving we have any
account of on American soil was feast
given to some Indian braves back in
Colonial times and as a people, we have
been truer to this method of observance
than to that of the grand old Jewish
prototype.
''Thanksgiving, acc )rding to our
methods, is a deadly day for America S
indigenous fowl; the dread of all dill
gent house wives; drain upon the
pocket; dyspepsia breeder for child
rem; a savings bank for the family ply
stefan, and gold mine for the butchers
and poulterers. Still we hail the an
nual re-ocurrence of the day and try to
reason ourselves into the belief that we
are thankful for one day, upon which we
can gorge and stuff and not be accused
of gluttony.
The original purpose of the day was
that it be spent in giving "thanks" for
for all good gifts received during the
year just passed. AS matter of fact, it
has become day desecrated to Epicurus
and not consecrated to the religious and
spiritual significance which it was in
tended to convey.
''The Book of the Law" orders it to
be day on which, aye shall do no SER
vile work therein; but, we observe it,,
by clogging our stomachs, stagnating
our brains aud then, roll over into a
dull, torpid, animal sleep and call this
''giving thanks"
