THANKSGIVING IN THE WEST

In this issue of the Journal Miner Is
published the proclamation for
thanksgiving just issued by Governor
Brodie In this connection it natur-
ally starts one to rejecting on some
of the things for which mot only the
whole country, but the west in partic-
ular, has to be thankful. That the
west is prosperous no one can deny.
and in proof of this the following
propositions are submitted;
Travelling men say they cannot get
goods to their customers fast enough.
Farmers say crops are bountiful, and
prices all that could be wished.
Railroad men say their only trouble
is to handle the enormous volume of
traffic.
Manufacturers say their only diff
Guilty is in getting the additions to
their plants completed so they can
catch up with their orders.
The warehouse men have no room
in their elevators; the bankers have
vaults filled with deposits, and ready
demand for money; contractors and
builders have work in sight for year
ahead; even the cattle in the fields
and the horses in the streets look
sleek.
The mortgage on the farm has been
paid off, and the farmer has money
to loan.
Industries are making money and
railroads are paying dividends.
The earth has been prolific; buying,
selling, carrying, building, develop
ing, all are going forward with hum
of industry that can almost be heard.
Confidence is strong and faith in
the future is firm.
The stock brokers now have the
field to themselves. They do not
affect the general country. What one
loses another makes. 1t is specula-
tion pure and simple.

An associated press dispatch says
that what has most impressed all OBJ
servers of the present situation on the
isthmus of Panama is the complete
success of the secession movement
and the orderly continuance of affairs
since the change of government. All
government functions have so far
been carried on with complete sue
cess, and the unanimous feeling
throughout the district of Panama in
favor of the new government is far be-
yond what its promoters anticipated
when making their preparations fo1
the memorable event of Nov. 3. The
successful execution of all the details
of the secession plan show that the
work was that of minds masterfui il
such matters and rarely known in
South American revolutions.

Organized labor in Chicago is be-
ginning to feel the reactionary effects
of the abnormal increase in wages it
has gained during the last year. So
heavy has the additional expense
proved to the big firms that they havs
been forced to lay off 1900 mers
and are preparing to drop 1000 more.
Reports..o the discharge of employees
reach the headquarters of the Chicago
Federation of labor every day. The
most serious was the announcement
that the International Harvester COM
pany would reorganize its plant, and
by Capitalization drop 1000 men and
women from its payrolls. Coupled
with this came a rumor that the Pull
man company was contemplating lay
ing off men, and that the companies
of the various metal trades association
are ready to take similar action.
Should all this be done Chicago will
have more idle men than at any time
since 1893. A total of IL, 800 men are
now out of work.

WEEKS CROP REPORT
For the Week Ending Monday
September 2lSt, 1908

The general tone of reports received
from correspondents this week indicates
that a decidedly more hopeful feeling
prevails especially in regard to the final
outcome Of the corn crop. Heavy to
excessive rams occurred early in the
week along the western border OF the
State. thoroughly saturating the already
wet grain in stack and shock and fur-
Their delaying threshing. Unthreshed
grain, of which there is considerable Is
In very bad condition, and even with
dry weather will yield but a small per-
centage of marketable grain, Decided
" cool weather was experienced THURS
day and Friday, with general frosts'
In some localities in the northern ana
central counties the temperature fell
below the freezing point and ice formed
to the thickness of an eighth OF an lnch
but taking the State as a whole, the
damage was comparatively slight.
Corn: The cool wave passed with
rather less damage to the corn crop
than was anticipated. On low lands
and particularly exposed localities fhe
damage was considerable, but much the
larger portion Of the crop was un-
injured by the frosts of Thursday and
Friday mornings The cool weather,
however retarded maturity, and the
bulk of the crop still requires week or
ten days to place it beyond danger from
frost. Early paintings on high, well
drained land are nearing maturity and
some cutting has been done. The soft
condition Of the soil renders 1t very
difficult to use machinery, and consider
able cutting is being done by hand. The
past few days have been very favorable,
and should the warm, dry weather con-
tinue for ten days the corn crop
harvested in this State would be but
little below normal corn.
Potatoes Reports received this week
in regard to potatoes are discouraging
in the extreme. The blight and rot
continue to increase. A number Of
correspondents who have heretofore re-
ported the crop in good condition now
state that rotting has commenced.
Some fields have been harvested, but
the yield is very unsatisfactory.
Tobacco: The crop is practically all
harvested and shielded A few localities
report that harvest has been delayed,
but will be finished during the ensuing
week. The crop is very large and OF
excellent quality but cures slowly on
account Of the wet weather
Minor Crops: Buckwheat harvest
is completed, and although the crop has
not been large, the yield is very salts,
factory. A large and excellent crop OF
sugar beets has been secured Second
crop clover will be a heavy yield, but on
account Of the wet condition of the
fields harvesting is backward, while the
seed in some localities il poor. Pas,
lures are IN splendid condition.
