InAnKseIvlMe nav SET
FOR THURSDAY, NOV. 30
President Issues Proclamation, Ac-
c0riing to the Long Estab-
lished Custom.

According to long-established Gus
tom the president of the United
States has set aside Thursday, No
vember 30th, as a day for general
thanksgiving by all the people of
the country. His proclamation,
which speaks of the past years pros
perity and utters hopes for the future
follows herewith
For nearly three centuries after
the first settlers came to this coun-
try, which has now become the great
est republic, they faced not only
hardship and privations, but terrible
risks to their lives. In those grim
times the custom grew of setting
apart one day in each year for spe-
cial service of thanksgiving to the
Almighty for preserving the people
through the changing seasons. The
custom has now become national, and
hallowed by usage.
I'VE live in easier and more plen-
tiful times than our forefathers, the
men who with rugged strength faced
the rugged days, and yet the dangers
to national life are quite as great now
as at any previous time in our his
tory.
1T is eminently fitting that once a
year our people should set apart a
day for praise and thanksgiving to
the giver of good, and, at the same
time that they express their thank
fulness for the abundant mercies re-
ceived, and should manfully acknowl-
edge their shortcomings and pledge
themselves solemnly and in good
faith to strive to overcome them.
During the past year we have
been blest with bountiful crops. Our
business prosperity has been great.
No other people has ever stood on as
high a level in material well being
as ours now stands. We are not
threatened by foes from without. The
foes from whom we should pray to
be delivered are our passions, appe-
titles and follies, and against these
there is always need that we should
warn.
Therefore, I now set apart, Thurs
day, the goth day of this November,
as day of thanksgiving for the past
and of prayer for the future, and on
that day | ask that throughout the
land the people gather in their homes
and places of worship and in render
ing thanks to the Most High for the
manifold blessings of the past year,
consecrate themselves to life of
cleanliness, honor and wisdom, so
that this nation may do it's allotted
work on earth in manner worthy of
those who founded it, and of those
who preserved it.
"In witness whereof, I have here
unto set my hand and caused the
seal of the United States to be af-
fixed.
Done at the City of Washington,
this second day of November, in the
year of our Lord One thousand nine
hundred and five, of the independ-
ence of the United States, the one
hundred and thirtieth.
(Signed.)
THEODORE ROOSEVELT.

Recent Mnssacres.
 New York. Dec 30.-Stories of hor- TOTS so revolting as to be almost be- yond belief are told by many of the l3,10O Russian refugees who. arrived here Friday on the Hamburg American steamer Waldersee.
 Huddled together in the detention room at Ellis Island, awaiting permis- sion to enter the new country tO which they turned when driven from their homes. many of them talked of the terrible times which preceded their flight. Although coming from widely separated parts of the Russian empire. the stories of all of them were marked ly similar.
 Tortures and death in all their most re- volting forms were witnessed. ChiI- dren were snatched from their moth CTS and their little bodies rent and torn. Mothers and fathers were struck down in the midst of their families. One little girl. Rosa Rosenski, g years old, came over with her brother Isaac, and the same age. The children are the re- mains of a family of ten persons. the other eight having been killed by the Cossacks in Moscow. Hirsch Siedlitz. who was a store keeper in Kienf up to three weeks ago, told or his flight from that city after a massacre of Jews in the market square.
 T left Kieff three weeks ago last Sunday" he said. On the Friday be- fore that day occurred the great massa- ere in the Jewish market place. Four thousand bodies were afterward buried in trenches in the city streets. On that Friday there were 5000 Jews and Ru-- sians gathered in the market square.

STRIKE CALLED OFF.
WOrIkmen's Council Realizes Futllity of
 the SfruRRle.


 St. Petersburg, Dec 31.-The Council of Workmen secretly met last night and after an eight hour session. at 2 o'clock this morning adopted a resolu- lion to call off the strike Monday Be cause the fight of the people against the government can no longer be limit "a to the Reorganization of economic life of the nation through the universal strike and is already in many parts of Inc country taking on the character of En armed uprising"
 ''The council of workmens depu- ties," the resolution concludes, de tides to proceed immediately with war ike operations and the organization sf an armed uprising. The council recognized that an attempt of an inn mediate uprising could not succeed in he capital, but while making prepara- lions it would be necessary to under :ake sort of guerilla warfare con listing of the disarming of police and loldiers wherever they are found along n the streets, the use of bombs from lmbush and other acts of terror"
 The council drew up proclama- ,ion to the Cossacks, warning them nat if they continued to fight against nle people they would be treated like mad dogs, and if they desired to be reated as brothers they should remain n their barracks. An appeal was also Irawn up requiring the proletariat of lil countries to support the fight be- rnn at MaScow.

Joseph Chamberlain Speaks.

Birmingham, England, Dec. 30.- Joseph Chamberlain in a speech here tonight said he believed that the speech of Prime Minister Campbell Zimmerman with relation to Chinese labor in South Africa was purely an electioneering paper. If not, 1t was most serious and probably would result in the same situ- ation as when Great Britain tried to legislate for the American colonies and lost them. MT. Chamberlain said Great Britain had already almost hopelessly lost the trade lead and that her only hope now lay in colonial preference. but he feared that fiso al reform would be smothered under the mass of minor is- sues during the campaign.

Working For Immigrants.

Ex-Mayor Frank V. Evans. who re-
 turned from New York city a few days
 since. where he haS been for the past
 two months, having been sent there by
 Immigration Commissioner Ross C. Smith. for the purpose of securing 'de-
 sirable lAborers among the thousands of immigrants from the European countries who are coming to the United States, stated this morning that he had sent to Alabama. during tho seven weeks he was at Ellis Island one hundred and eighty men. most of whom being Poles, Hungarians. Norwegians and Swedes. He also sent about seven ty-flve men to Georgia. According te political economists" said Mir. Evans, a workingman Is worth $1,5o0 to a State. Upon that basis, I sent to Ala bama over a quarter of million dol lars during my short stay there. As the business and industrial men If Birmingham know. the labor question is a most important one here in this district.
 Tt has been said that desirable men cannot be obtained in New York for the South. This Is because they are not satisfactorily handled. I believe the demand in this State can be sup piled easily if the matter Is taken hold of and handled in the right manner. Within the last ninety days there have been 2,500 people brought to Alabama, which is more than were brought into the State during all of 1904. I cncoun- tered a great prejudice against the South among the labor agencies in New York. The manager of one told me northern European immigrants could not be induced to come South because of the hot climate and the negro, but 1 believe this can be overcome by per sonal work of lahor agents sent there for that purpose. We can get them for the money, and in no case will they agree to come here for less than $1.50 per day, but I am confident we can secure all we want here in Birmingham if we go about 1t in the right way"
 MT. Evans will remain here for some time, awaiting the orders of the Ala bama Immigration and Industrial League.
