 About the big old fashioned fire place, while the fire crackled and burned and filled the room with its ruddy glow, they gathered to talk, laugh and make merry. The apples toasting on the hearth, the corn pop ing, the nuts being cracked made these Thanksgiving gatherings of fam flies and friends among the gladdest of all the year.
 Sometimes music and dancing were added to the pleasures of the evening. after the bounteous Thanksgiving din- ner of turkey, cranberry sauce. Iump- kin pie and real pound cake. the mak- ing of which is lost art in these days of "sngel's food" and devils cake. |" Good sweet cider that ''exhilarates but oes not intoxocate, tea and coffee that "only mother knew how to make" were the beverages they drank, and none had the headache next morning.
 ''The parson who had lsbored so assidnouusly on his sermon, which everyone had listened to in the morn- ing, was always provided for. Some times the good things that were sent to his family filled their larder to over flowing; again he and his worthy spouse, were invited to dine with some of the members of bis congregation. And so Thanksgiving was spent in the olden time."

The Saffcrd Guardian IS surely hard to please. It is bewailing the polit- ical results in Graham. where was elected every man on the democratic ticket. Not republican landed in the county of Graham and still the Guar dian is talking about the necessity for the demorcats of that county getting together and stIentghening the demo- cratic forces so that success may be won in the future. What more suc- cess does the Guardian expect than the election of the entire democratic ticket, without the loss of a single man? The Guardian complains that its home town was not represented on the ticket, while smaller places in the county had all the places on the ticket. If the Guardian will look back at the election returns in Stafford for the last four and six years he will discover that Stafford has been regular slaughter pen for some of the best democra tic candidates who ever run for office in that county. Maybe the voting in Stafford in the past has had something to do with denying the precinct repre-. sentation on the ticket. When Stafford lesrns tq vote for democratic nominees on the ticket the good democrats will be found ready to give Stafford fair and full recognition in conventions

THANKSGIVING

Thanksgiving this year finds the people of Arizona enjoying much for which they have reason to be thankful. During the past year. or Father during the last half of the present year we have been blessed with an unusually good season and as a result all classes of our citizens have been prosperous; the man who tills the soil has seen his crops yield beautifully because of an abundant supply of water for irriga- ton; the stockman sees his herds fat and thrifty because a of good season for grass growing on the ranges, those who own the producing mines of the territory have found plenty of ore of good grade and have seen the price of the precious metals, especially copper. gradually advance; many new and important enterprises have been pro- noted in the territory and many more gre being planned for the future. The laborers of the territory in the various enterprises have been blessed with @ good wage scale and satisfactory A n.. &b<.~ rA0la be suw <,lo in the territory that cannot with pro- priety give thanks for present condi- tions surrounding them. Perhaps in 10 other state in the union are the peo- pie more generally prosperous than in Arizona.
 Here in Douglas we have much to give thanks for; our city has had prosperous year and the outlook for the future was never brighter.
 Our various enterprises are prosper ous and ouI people are in the enjoy ment of health. Certainly if our thanks should be measured by the rapid growth of our city then they would be heartily given and unbounded. As city we have distanced all others in the west in steady and substantial ad- yaucement.
 But Thanksgiving now is not what it was in the olden days Tn New Eng land; it does not have the same mean ing ,w as then; then it was time for returning sincere acknowledgement for ths blessings received; now it is a time for festival and merry making, with but little thought of lwhst have been the blessings received.
 Of the olden time Thanksgiving Mrs. John A Logan recently wrote the fol- lowing for one of the eastern maga- zines:
 Thanksgiving has practically a very different meaning from what it had 2S3 years ago. when Governor Bradford issued the first Thanksgiving proclamation. naming day for rejoic- ing and p 'cial prayer and, praise for the bountifuI harvest of the year.
 "In 1893, after a glorious rain. which saved the crops after a long drought. the devout governor issued another, and so it became the custom to have 6 day Of thanksgiving and prayer after harvest These Puritans were grateful to God for the many blessings which came to them. They had also keen relish for festivals and merry making, hence feasting and good chser were part of .theee happy occa- sions. The finest specimens of fruits and sssstables that were grown dur ing khe ysar were carefully put away for Thanksgiving; autumn leaves were oiled and pressed. to be used in dsco'

The evidence Of this disapidated con-

1t is reasonable to suppose THAT ii it
has become impossible to longer make
cattle raising in droves of thousands

branch of industry has been driven out
by another and necessarily better occu-
patton; and looked upon in this light,
the gradual waning and ultimate dis
appearance OF the old time wild west
industry--can be contemplated with
any regret except that which naturally
follows separation from that to which
one has become accustomed.
With these big cattle holdings divid-
ed up.into multifarious smaller ones in
theTpossession of settlers and home

the once big industry except the rom
ance connected with it, and the memo

WHERE MONEY WILL COME FROM.

Those who are worried about the
aextrayegance. of the South Dakota
and are wondering where
the money is coming from are evident
lily not taking into consideration the
taxable property of the state is increas-
ing at a rate that makes it possible for
larger revenues to come in and necess.
airy for larger expenditures to be made.
AT present, for instance. the state
auditor is receiving lists OF lands to be
placed upon the tax roll. From the
Chamberlain district alone $40 final
proofs were reported for the past year.
This means that from that district the
state will receive share of the taxes
from over $4,000 additional acres of
land. The reports from the several
other land offices have not as YET; been
received, but something of an estimate
of what the Pierre district will con-
tribute can, be made from the fact that
nearly 5000 filings have been made
since 1902. Proofs on these lands are
being made constantly, and granting
that all holders are anxious to prove up
