THANKSGIVING

The public proclamation of the
President. proclaiming the day OF
observance has been issued. Every
school boy knows, or ought 10
know, the birth of Thanksgiving.
How the pilgrims, who left their
homes In England and came to the
barrens of New England to live,
free from bigotry and constraint,
On this day they gave up their
thanks for the blessings received
In foreign lacds there Is holiday
that Is closely allied to the Ameri-
can Thanksgiving. 1t Is the Ker-
mis-, This Is holiday that Is cele
brated In the month of October.
Especially among the Germans
has the feast day great hold. On
he day of the Kermis the people
gather together aud hold a great
feast, then give thanks for bounti-
tul crops, and that they have got
all their grains ard fruits and vege-
tables stored away for the season.
Thanksgiving Is true American
holiday and 1t bids fair to live as
loug as the land Itself, The day Is
not one of great ostentation of py-
rotechnics, but there Is a deeper
feeling imbued by the thought that
the day was set aside by the fore
fathers of the present race as time
for thanks to be off.red up for the
many blessings received. This year
the people In general have much to
be thankful for, as 1t has been one
of unusual prosperity.
Sistersville daily oil review. [volume] (Sistersville, W. Va.) 1902-1905, 1903-11-11

1t Is proverblal In the United
States that the people no sooner
pass over one holiday than they be
gin to make preparations for the
next one. Now 1t Is Thanksgiving
that will fall on the 26:h of the pres
ent month. With Thanksgiving
one iuvoluntarily thinks of turkey,
mince and pumpkin pies aud Gran
berries, not to mention the battles
on the gridiron. There are other
phases such as the great one that
gave rise to the day of observance,
but this has drifted into oblivion
among classes, especially the young
er generation of the land.
Already on market days we can
see the turkeys displayed In far
mer's wagons and the produce men
have already begun to lay In a sup
ply of provisions for the holiday.
Thanksgiving is a national holiday
and on that date all public places
will be closed. Being a day OF
thanksgiving, services are held In
the majority of churches.
Turkeys this year will be fully
as high If not higher than usual. 1t
Is a hard fowl to raise and the Tar
mers have a great deal of trouble 10
keeping the young turkeys from
the wlles OF beast and nature that
would be their undoing In short or
der.

VOTE UNDER THE ROOS
TER.

The political campaign is up to
the voters now. The Democrats
have fine ticket. Begin with
Governor Beckham at the head
and read down the line under the
rooster. Every man is capable
of filling the office to which ne
aspires with credit to himself and
his constituency. Then consid-
err the principles they stand for,
opposed to theft, assassination
and murder, the laws are being
enforced and factions and feuds
are fast going into the past. Ken
lucky under Democratic admin
istration is without debt, and ours
is again peaceful people. Con-
slider these things and see II 1t is
not your duty as citizen to vote
the Democratic ticket straight.
Vote under the rooster,

IT REBOUNDS.

The Gazette editor in his des-
peration to give some kind of an
excuse for Republican narrowness
and sel6shness, greed and corrup-
ton, makes fling at the ADVOCATE
on the question Of consistency rel
alive to moral convictions, not
knowing how hard the blow would
rebound and just where it would
hit the impressionless sand-bag
editor. His fling, if it has any
meaning at all, is this by implica-
ton: From the head of the City
Government down, in both its
branches, are immoral men who
are dead to the obligations resting
on them, who would use the peo-
pies preferment as a cloak for all
that is immoral. This is the Ga
zette.
Now suppose this most serious
charge is true; that we have in Mt.
Sterling an immoral ring. can the
Gazette editor excuse himself for
submitting without even an effort
to change the color of things ?
What has the Republican party,
by voice or deed, done to make a
changer
Such a fling will side-track no
thinking man.
We have before us to-day the
stealing o a Presidency by the
Republican party and the assassi-
nation of Governor because he
would resort to legal proceedings
to decide whether he or another
was Governor. This theft and
assassination Is approved by the
party of to-day. Would any Re-
publican dispute the charger If
so, following the Hays Presiden-,
tial administration, we would ask
a reference to the national platform
that endorsed the party for making
the bold theft and which made
Rutherford 3. Hays President OF
the United States, thereby sitting
the will of great nation. A few
years prior to this we can but re-
member a war closing and the
people of the South having been
Impoverished by an enormous rob-

berry OF hard-earned property just
because the Republican party had
power to do so. The colored man
should have his liberty, but if a
people possessed them as legal
property, while other language
may be employed, the literal
meaning of the way they we're re-
lieved of their own is nothing short
OF theft. The people should have
been remunerated and by a ques-
ton of right the Government then
and now under Republican power
owe the people of the South for
this property. Republican meth
DDS then and now are without
change; theft and assassination are
conspicuous, The people can not
trust Republicans.
We would have the people look
at present conditions. Trusts,
with enormous capital, that con-
troll every item Of interest to the
common people. If you would
cover your residence with tin or
any other metal the trust names
an enormous price. Ifyou would
name a price for your tobacco.
again the trust speaks out: eve
must make the profits and scant
living is all you farmers and labor
ers deserve. !" The beef trust
gained favor when first organ zed,
but to-day the farmer is lucky If
he can break even. These trusts
are of Republican birth and by
this party are permitted to fleece
the people.
Such statements Of facts should
be enough to influence all good
men to vote against party with
a favored few.

A LAND SLIDE.

The Republicans are reported
to have all the corruption fund
needed under the most extraordi-
nary circumstances. That the
leaders will attempt to use it is
not doubted. but there are those
who have contributed, who ,ap-
prehend a misuse of the collected
Doodle, that when it starts to the
precincts it may be pocketed.
Republicans know their own cor
ruptible methods, and one of their
leaders heretofore, a prophet OF
some note uses the word ''if. "
"If the Republicans can't win
mark land slide in favor Of the
Democrats" 1t will be so.

WILL MEN NEVER LEARNl

In another column is an account
OF the killing Of Joe Wilson. He
is the third man slain in our coun-
ty since January. This is bad
record for any civilized commnn:
ty. People in the Bluegrass
should quit talking about the
Mountain people. Judging from
what we have heard, SO far as
earthly tribunals are concerned,
his slayer is clearly justihable.
We are reminded that the deaden-
ing and damning traffic in strong
drink is getting in its work. Will
men not learn a lesson from this
sad experience Will they con-
tinue to use that which dethrones
reason, kills the body and damns
the soul1 1t brings discord be-
tween neighbors, destroys virtue,
blights fairest prospects, inpover-
ishes and dishcncrs communities
breaks hearts, tramples upon love
and converts happy homes into
bells. These are SOME Of its fruits.
