A descendant of Lafreniere, the
founder of the Republic of Louis
lana, the first in America, has re-
ceived special invitation to attend
the Louisiana Purchase Exposition
in ST. Louis next year. The Repub-
lie, such as it was, lived only from
October, 1853, to March, 1869. 1t
was established as protest against
the transfer TO Spain of the French
colonies in America. The leaders,
Lafreniere among them, were shot
for their pains, after the executioner
had refused to carry out the-order
of the Spanish commander that they
be hanged. When Napoleon, after
he had seized the old French colo
MES, sold the territory to the United
States in 1903, the people of New
Orleans again objected, but they did
not go so far as to renew the indie
pendent government. If Lafreniere's
Republic had lived his name would
be among the great ones, and it would
not take worlds fair to remind one
that he had lived.-The Youths

"This note Is secured by bonds Of
the United States deposited With the
United States Treasurer At Wash
irgton." This certificate. which is
printed across the face of national
bank bills, tells Of the. peculiar rela-
tion ct the governments indebted
ness TO one important kind of paper
money. Much of the present day
currency complication arises from
this historic relationship.
The Government of the United
States borrows money at the lowest
rate of interest of any in the world.
Its two per cent. bonds sell at good
premium. But its splendid credit is
in large degree due to the part which
those bonds play in the currency sys-
tenn. Banks which issue notes, un-
der authority of the general govern
ment, must keep bonds of an equal
amount deposited in the Treasury as
security. During the Civil War the
government had to borrow enormous
sums OF money to meet its heavy ex-
penditure, and in order to enlarge
the market for them it taxed the
issue of State banks, and compelled
the national banks to buy it's bonds
as security for their circulating notes.
AS the interesting-bearing debt OF
the United States has declined, its
bonds have become much desired fol
purposes of safe investment. AT
ordinary rates OF interest, they COM
mand such excessive premiums chat
it is not profitable for the banks to
buy them for their special purposes.
The tax on bank-note circulation,
although recently reduced, operates
In the same direction. 1t has thus

The NatlonI Thanksgiving.

The following is the annual thanks.
giving proclamation issued by the
President:
BY the President of the United
States of Amerioa-A Proclamation
The season is at hand when, ac-
cording to the custom of our people,
it falls upon the President to appoint
a day of praise and thanksgiving to
God.
During the last year the Lord has
dealt bountifully with us, giving us
peace at home and abroad, and the
chance for our citizens to work for
their welfare unhindered by war,
famine or plague. 1t behooves us
not only to rejoice greatly because of
what has been given us, but to ac-
cept it with a solemn sense of re-
sponsibility, realizing that under
Heaven it rests with us ourselves to
show that we are worthy to use
Alright what has been entrusted to
our care. In no other place and at
no other time has the experiment of
government of the people, by the
people, for the people, been tried on
80 vast scale as here in our own
country in the opening years of the
twentieth century. Failure would
not only be dreadful thing for us,
but dreadful thing for all mankind,
because it would mean loss of hope
for all who believe in the power and
righteousness of liberty. Therefore,
in thanking Gcd for the mercies ex-
tended to us in the past, we besccch
Him that He may not withhold
them in the future, and that our
hearts may be reused to war stead
fastly for good and against all the
forces of evil, public and private.
We pray for strength and light, so
that in the coming years we may
with cleanliness, fearlessness and
wisdom do our allotted work on the
earth in such manner as to show
that we are not altogether unworthy
of the blessings we have received.
Now, therefore, /, Theodore
Roosevelt, President of the United
States, do hereby designate as day
of general thanksgiving Thursday,
the 26th of the coming November,
and do recommend that throughout
the land the people cease from their
wonted occupations, and in their
several homes and places of worship
render thanks to Almighty God for
His manifold mercies.
1t witness whereof l have here
unto set my hand and caused the
seal Of the United States to be
affixed.
Done at the City of Washington
this 31st day of October, in the
year of our Lord one thousand, nine
hundred and three, and of the inde-
pendence of the United States the
one hundred and twenty eighth.
Theodore Roosevelt.

Secretary of State.

A significant fact is noted in tho tress.
ury statement issued at the close OF
business in Washington on last Saturday.
1t is that the receipts and expenses OF
the Government for the first four months
of the present fiscal year are practically
the same, the surplus being 80 small as
to be only fraction of the aggregate.
One year ago the surplus for the same
months of the fiscal year was $13, 200, 900.
The total receipts for the fiscal year have
been about $3.50, ,397.2S5, and the expen-
ditures S189,s ,697, leaving a surplus of
about $5S5,000. An analysis of the
statement shows that the practical wip.
ing out of the surplus is due not only to
a decrease of the receipts, but also to an
increase of expenditures.

1t was the wish of the late Lord
Salisbury that the expenses of his
funeral should not exceed hundred
dollars. They did not exceed seventy
dollars. The Duke of Westminster,
who also held strong opinion on
the wickedness of ostentatious ex-
travagance at funerals, was buried at
cost of only thirty-fve dollars.
Many poor family in America has
gone deeply into debt to bury it's
members because of fear of what
the neighbors might say. The fash
ion of simplicity, set by the English
great, might well be adopted by rich
and poor alike.

Stomach Trouble Causes Hear. trouble.

Heart trouble is almost always caused
by stomach trouble. The stomach fails
to digest all the food, and tho residue
ferments, forming excess of gas which
distends the walls of the stomach, caus-
ing pressure on the nerves and arteries
that lead to the heart. This causes the
heart to palpitate or skip beat occa-
sionally, or both, which is usually very
alarming, causing grave appr0hensions.
Rydale's stomach Tablets will prevent
this trouble. They digest the food and
prevent gas from forming in the stomach.
Ii there is no gas in your stomach your
heart will not trouble you. Sold by j..

Thousands OF testimonials prove this, and IN

"Seven years ago my wife commenced
having !spasms or fits and called In my

gave her caiomel and she eventually got
some better. but In a short time she had
another attack. She was confined to her
bed for three months and the doctor could
not help her. She had fits frequently, some
times very severe. Her hands would cramp
so we could not open them and she finally
got Sc her jaws would become locked.

good and ordered q bottle of DIR. Miles Re-

benefit from the first bottle that got some

tsaiifosd nehS or long experience
state that the prime canse OF the
early dismissal Of 80 many promising
young men who secure positions with
the various roads is the burning De-
sire svinced BY these neophytes to
ride on passes. According to many
of the best known men in tho busi-
ness, as soon as the average Young
man becomes connected with rail-

ener to the fifth clerk of the trash.
moving department, he begins to feel
that the president of the line owes
him something like $50 free rides
over the system. He works one day
and three hours, andSthen walks into
the Office of the chief clerk and re-
quests that individual to sssee the old
man about his going on a little trip
next week" The chief clerk does
as he is asked. He sees the cold
man." The result is, probably, that
the new clerk gets the pass. But he
gets more than this. He earns by
that simple operation the full and
free right 60 roam al over the
United States, with the permission of
his superior officers. They do not
need him any more in the Office, and
it is only matter of a short time,
they say, before this fact is made to
appear in Greek fire colors to the
young man.
Nothing, say the railroad men,
makes a worse impression on the
employer of a, new clerk than for
him to begin at once asking for
passes for himself and all of his kin.
Railroads give passes with reluctance
in almost all instances. This is
known to all other employees. and
they are chary of requesting any
free rides, and when the fresh young
man walks in and demands what his
older companions fear to ask for
there is nearly always something do
ing in the way of vacancy in that
office in short time. The pass mi
crobe infests all human breasts, in
the opinion of railroaders, to more
or less degree, and has to be put up
with at times but they do draw the
line when their own men begin to
worry them about free transporta-

Good Prices for Cotton.

The American cotton mills, saws the
Yorkville Enquirer, have evidently been
figuring on lower prices for cotton.
That is the only way to account for the
fact that so many of them are living
from hand to mouth, so to speak. The
indications, however, are that they will
be disappointed. They may see lower
prices than those now prevailing; but
that'is not likely. That prices will have
to go up when they commence buying
seems inevitable, aud farmers who are
able to hold cotton are doing SO with
less anxiety than they have ever felt be-
fore under similar circumstances. They
have right to believe that they hold
the key to the situation.
