Washington, Oct. 23.-The
President today issued a proc
lamation naming Thursday No
yembet 20, as day of thanks
giving.
The text of the proclamation
is as follows:
A proclamation: The time of year
has come when, in accordance with
the wise custom of our forefathers,
it becomes my duty to set aside a
special day of thanksgiving and
prayer to the Almighty because Of
the blessings we have received and
of prayer that these blessings may
be continued. Yet another year of
wide spread well-being has passed.
Never before IN our history or in the
history of any other nation has a
people enjoyed more abounding
material prosperity than is ours; a
prosperity so great that it should
arouse In us no spirit of reckless
pride, and least of all spirit of
needless disregard of our response
bilitIes. but rather a sober sense of
our many blessings and a resolute
purpose, under Providence, not to
forfeit them by any action of our
own.
Material well-being, indispensa-
BILE though it is, can never be any
thing but the foundation of true
greatness and happiness. If we
build nothing on this foundation,
then our national life will be as
meaningless and empty as house
where only the foundation has been
laid. On our material well-being
must be built superstructure of
individual and national life lived in
accordance with the laws of the
highest morality, or else our pros
perity itself will IN the long run turn
out a curse instead of a blessing.
We should be both reverently thank
full for what we have received and
earnestly bent on turning it into a
means of grace and not of destruc-
tion.
Accordingly 1 hereby set apart
Thursday, the 29th day of November
next, as a day of thanksgiving and
supplication, on which the people
shall meet in their homes or
churches, devoutly acknowledge all
that has been given them and to
pray that they may in addition re-
ceive the power to use these gifts
Alright.
In witness whereof / 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 22nd day of October, in the year
OF our Lord one thousand, nine hun
dred and six, and of the Independ-
ence of the United States the one
hundred and thirty first.

KENTUCKY CROP REPORT.
Issued by Commissioner vreeland on
Oct. 10TH 4

The month of September was
very unfavorable for the prepare.
tion of ground for sowing wheat
and oats and other fall work is
retarded. Heavy and continuous
rains have delayed the cutting of
corn, as also injuring its quality,
causing it to rot to some extent.
Tobacco has suffered from ex-
cessive moisture and much of it
which was housed has been
damaged by house burning,
while that remainding on the
scaffolds, or still uncut, reports
indicate a poor quality and con.
siderable loss in weight. In
the Burley District the esti.
mated yield compared to 1905 is
80 per cent, while the estimate
of that housed to October / is
"a per cent OF the crop. In the
Dark Tobacco District, the esti.
mate of yield compared with
1905. is so per cent, and the
figures show that the amount
housed is 70 per cent of the crop.
The yield of corn over the en-
tire State as compared with last
year is very gratifying, being
107 per cent, but some of 1t will
be of inferior quality on account
of lack of sunshine. Reports
indicate that the acreage of
ground prepared for wheat COM
pared with 1905 is only SO per
cent. With favorable weather
from now on there is time enough
to increase the sowing of this
crop materially.
Fall pastures are the best
known for years and all stock is
in good condition. Very little
disease is reported among ami
mails except in one or two coun-
ties, where there is some COM
plant of Hog Cholera. Mules
are bringing fancy prices. Sheep
in good demand. Hogs scarce.
There is general complaint
of dearth of labor and high
wages. In some localities it is
almost possible to obtain good
hands at any price.

ELECTION WAS A
VERY QUIET ONE
ONLY A SMALL VOTE WAS POLLED
FOR THE STATE TICKET HERE
YESESRDAY.

The election of state and county Off
GERS passed Off very quietly in Glynn
county yesterday, only 241 votes be-
ing polled, and had it not been for the
fact that a urinary was also held for
judges Of the new court of appeals,
it is not believed that more than $50
voters would have visited the poll =
There was very little scratching Of
the candidates, nearly every one Oh
them receiving $40 of the 341 votes.
All OF the amendments to the con-
stitution were passed, though good
many votes against them were scratch
ed. There were only about twenty
people vino opposed the new court,
ten or twelve against the creation of
new superior court judges and only
a half dozen or more who were against
the new county of Ben Hill.
The ticket was SO long that the
voters took little time to look over it,
and had it not been for the fact that
the politicians were present to in
struct the people how to vote, most OF
them would have voted both for and
against the amendments.

ROOF TO GO ON
METHODIST CHURCH
WORK is NOW BEING PUSHED ON
5RUNSWiCK's NEW TEMPLE
OF WORSHIP.

Within the next few days carpen-
ters will begin on the roof of the new
First Methodist church, which has
been in course of construction Tor
a year or more, but which is now
being pushed to completion as rapidly
as possible.
Work on the church since it was
started has been delayed for many
reasons, the lack of labor, trouble in
securing material and other causes
and the contractors have been able
to work on it only at times, but re-
Gently the work has been pushed ana
within a few days work on the roo
will begin.
1t is probable that the church win
be ready for occupancy before tbs
first of the coming year. There viii
be plenty of work to do even after
the roof is on and it will be two e,
three months before the church viii
be turned over to the congregation.
