SOME THANKSGIVING THOUGHTS.

Let no one else suspect that you have
little cause for thankfulness.
Remember that every one has cause
to be thankfUi-If nof for personal, at
least for farlily, sectional and national
reasons.
Try to find the true spirit of thanks
giving in thinking of other people 5
happiness and so find at least a fart
reflection in your own heart.
Remember that there are more rea-
sons for the national holiday than a
foot ball game and big dinner.
Do not let the responsibility of enter
tanning guests interfere with the pleas
ure of their society.
If unavoidable bitches in the domestic
machinery occur, console yourself with
the thought that although the turkey
was underdone, the pumpkin pie was
beyond reproaeh and if the cook forgot
the celery, she remembered the salad
you bad forgotten.
Try for one day to be charitable, not
only in deed, but in every thought and
word.

welcome awaiting MN.
AS a nation we have much to be
thankful for this year. 1t is not super
fuous to repsat the congratulatory re-
minder that our country is at peace
with all the world; that no serious epi-
demic has prevailed; that crops as
whole have been bountiful and oppor-
tunities for gainful employment have
been abundant. The late financial dis
turbarve nas not been such that we are
led 70 dist-ust our fellowmen, and that
&c have common trust in humanity
is one of the ample causes for this day
congratulation. The storms of July
were severe in our community and sur
rounding country, but we should be
doubly thankful to the Preserver of our
existence that none of human destruc-
ton overlook us. This is but a re-
minder that in the economy of nature
there must come calamity.
In this community and the great
northwest material blessings have been
vouchsafed in abundance and wide has
been the distribution. Therefore we
may review the past with satisfaction
and look into the future with confidence.
Thanksgiving, it would seem proper,
,ather tl.an the first of January, should
DE the day of retrospective contempla-
zion of the triumphs and shortcomings of
the year, and of resolve and determine
ton to make the coming twelvemonth
an Improvement, in personal effort, on
the one Just passed.
The CENSOR joins in the sentiment
expressed by cur own state executive,
Governor Davidson, in recommending
that the people of our commonwealth
refrain from their usual avocations,
assemble in their accustomed places
Of worship, and return grateful thanks
to the God of Nations for the blessings
enjoyed. !"

that there is persistent rumor in
railroad circles to the effect that q
new fast mail train between Seattle

and will make it's first stop at Willmar
