HERE'S TO THE CANDIDATE.

The candidate cometh up like flower
and retires busted. His friends fill him
with false hope and atmosphere. He
smileth upon mankind and sloppeth
over with humor. He kisseth the child
rem and scattereth microbes among the
babies. He quietly cheweth a Glove
when he meeteth the preacher and as he
converseth with him he standeth to lee
ward and curbeth his breath with bit.
He goeth home late at night with berry
breath and cold feet to fiery wife. He
riseth up before time and hiketh out be-
fore breakfast, 81 go to see man."
The dead beat lieth in wait and pulleth
his leg to queens taste. He "naileth
lie," but before election day he runeth
short of nails. He giveth literally to
the church and contributeth good sum
to the poor whose barn was burned. He
sendeth a small key hither and larger
one thither. He yields up his substance
with apparent alacrity. After election
he goeth back to the barn and kicketh
himself, tareth his hair and calleth him
self fool.-EX.

After spending weeks vacation at

in this city with his little daughter who
makes her home with her grandmother
Mrs. E. 7. Martin.
Mrs. It. A. Bowman returned Friday

Forest Lorey was Davis City visitor
Friday, going down to play football
with the Davis City team against Chari-
ton. And we guess he played all right
for he came back looking very much as
if he had been run through threshing
machine.
Arch Gray, son of VIM. Gray of this

known resident of this county, who

body is glad to see him.
The potato crop is "patchy" in Iowa
this year. Down in southeastern Iowa
the tubers are selling at As cents per
bushel, while at Emmetsburg, accord
ing to the Reporter, Potatoes are
mighty scarce articles in this county
this fall. During the past week three
cars have been shipped in. These sell
for rs cents per bushel. The last two
years have been tough on potato eat
ers."
The Philadelphia Ledger, republican,
says: "The passing of Perry Heath is
one of the healthful signs of the times.
AS we'll as any other politician he
represented, and still represents, re-
gime that should have no place in gov
ornamental affairs. His career is melo-
dorius and he himself is the ripe pro-
duct of the spoils system supplemented
by the system of loot. He belongs to
that class of grafters which is easily
the most dangerous to the public well
fare. Because of what he represented
he came to be what he was-one of the
most repelling figures in American pol
itics. In passing from public view he
awakens only a sense of contempt quite
untouched by even the suggestion of
compassion. a.

By the president of the United States
of America:
A PROCLAMATION.
The season is at hand when according
to the custom of our people it falls upon
the president to appoint 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 citizens to work for their
welfare unhindered by war, famine and
plague. lt.behooves us not only to re-
joice greatly because Of what has been
given us, but to accept it with a solemn
sense of responsibility, realizing that
under heaven it rests with us ourselves
to show that we are worthy to use a
Alright what has thus been entrusted to
our care. In no other place and at no
other time, has the experiment of gov
eminent of the people, by the people,
for the people, been tried on so 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 the righteousness of liberty. There
fore in thanking God for the mercies
extended to us in the past, we beseech
Him that He may not withhold them in
the future, and that our hearts may be
reused to war steadfastly for good and
against all the forces of evil, pnblic 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 earth
in such a manner as to show that we
are not altogether unworthy the bless
ings we have received.
Now, therefore, /, Theodore Roosevelt,
president of the United States, do here
by designate as day of general
thanksgiving, Thursday, the twenty
sixth day of November, and do recon-
mend that throughout the land people
cease; from their wanted occupa-
tiens, and in their several homes and
places of worship render thanks unto
Almighty God for his manifold mercies.
In witness whereof / have hereunto
set my hand and caused the seal of the
Uunited States to be affixed.
(Signed.) THEODORE ROOSEVELT.
By the president.
JOHN HAY, Secretary of State.
