A representative of The Daily Re-
cord visited the Offices of the various
banking Institutions of the town this
morning for the purpose of obtaining
the views of those most familiar with
the monetary interests of the country
in relation to the financial furry that
has upset stock values in Wall street
the last few days. At all OF them the
idea that the New York disturbance
had any national Significance, or pre-
saged any check to the prosperity OF
the country was secuted as impos-
sible. The conviction was everywhere
expressed that the trouble In New
York was purely local and was due
to a very large extent at least to in
judicious speculation in stocks and
securities issued by promoters of en-
terprises which were unwarranted by
the demands of commerce.
President T. b. Coulter Of the Citi-
zens State Bank said that so far as
he was able 10 determine there was
no occasion for any alarm so far as
the country at large was concerned.
Colorado in particular was immune

PROCLAMATION
BY PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT

The following Thanksgiving pro-
clamation was issued by President
Roosevelt on Saturday:
Once again the season of the year
has come when in accordance with
the custome of our forefathers for
generations past the president ap-
points the day as the especial oc-
casion for all our people to give praise
and thanksgiving to God.
During the past year we have been
free from famine, from pestilence,
from war. We are at peace with all the
rest of mankind. Our natural re-
sources at least are as great as those
OF any other nation. We believe that
in ability TO develop and take advan-
tage of these resources, the average
man of this nation stands as high at
leafs as the average man of any other.
Nowhere else in the world is there
such an opportunity for a free people
to develop to the fullest extent all its
powers of body and Of mind, of that
which stands above body and mind.
character.
Much has been given us from on
high and much will rightly be expected
of us in return. Into our care ten
talents have been entrusted and we
are to be pardoned neither II we waste
and sQuander them, nor yet II we
hide them In a napkin. for they must
be fruitful In our hands. Ever through
out the ages at all times and among
all people prosperity has been fraught
with danger. and 1t behooves. US to
beseech the giver OF all things that
we may not fall into love OF ease and
luxury. that We may not lose our sense
of responsibility, that We may not for
get our duty to God and our neighbor.
"A great democracy like ours. de-
mocracy based upon the principles OF
orderly liberties can be perpetuated
only II In the heart OF the ordinary
citizen there dwells . keen sense OF
Righteousness and Justice. We should
earnestly pray that this spirit OF
should grow even great

in values, knowing, as we do, the
methods of some of the men engaged
in high finance" To guard against
spread of this state of affairs we
have set for ourselves the task Of
building up one of the strongest banks
in Colorado and have succeeded in our
purpose, an advantage in which our
depositors share. We have sometimes
been criticized for carrying in our
vaults SO much idle money, but it has
always been an additional safeguard
to ourselves and TO our patrons. We
have well in excess of five hundred
thousand dollars in cash on hand.
The tremendous volume of business
of the country cannot be reversed in
few minutes by any financial in
fiuence. however great Wall street

imperiously control the financial stu

any news from beyond the borders Of

days they would be congratulating
themselves on the great prosperity of

financial disturbance in New York,
but ii will not materially affect the
business of the country, especially of
Colorado. There is no cause for ex-
citement over the financial condition

 of the admission, of vehicles.

 For passenger vehicles which want to enter the grounds to unload and
 load passengers, there will be a charge
 of g 50 for the week. whether they are
 wagons. hacks or automobiles. and a
 rule has been made that no such ve-
 hicles may proceed further into the grounds than the Woman's building. Arrangements have also been made for the automobiles to enter by one gate and the horse vehicles by the another.

While on an extended tour of the old countries, Dr. Abraham K. Yoosuf, who

 interested in studying the drinking
 habits of various nations and has come home with some ideas of his own
 on the subject.
 ''COntrasted with the German and Austrian methods of imbibing spiritu- ous liquors, the Americans drink too
 much and their actions in general while in saloons. partake more of the porcine nature than of sane human be- ings." said the doctor.
 We ought to take a few hints from our German and Austrian friends and learn to drink decently" said pr Ypo<uf Then instead of making reservoirs of ourselves We could imbibe as decent people should. Why, our cus- tom of treating the crowd is abomin-
 able.

 modern life in the United States" con-

tory I was struck by the absence of saloons as. we have them. No bars twere to be seen anywhere. and on in quiry I learned that there were none. Instead, there were restaurants and gardens. where hundreds of men, wo-
