THANKSGIVING PROCLAMA-
TION. BY GOV. JOHNSON.

Upon day set for that purpose in
the closing of each year, it is the
custom of the people of the nation
and state to engage in special
festival of praise and thanks to the
Giver of all Good, Therefore, I, John
A. johnson, governor of the state of
Minnesota, do hereby designate
Thursday, the 28bh day OF November,
as day of Thanksgiving.
The year now drawing to a close is
replete with evidence of divine good
ness. The people of Minnesota
have enjoyed material prosperity:
farm. forest and mine have yielded
abundantly: there have been no
visitations of fire, famine and
pestilence and the countless benefits
showered upon us during the past
twelvemonth call for our fervent
gratitude.s The prevalence of health,
the fullness of . the harvest, q the
stability Of peace and order, the
growth of fraternal feeling, the
spread of education. ,and all the
countless blessings that brighten the
pathway Of life's Wayfarer-alI these
are cause for rejoicing and praise.
Above and beyond the material
wealth that has come to our state,
we should reflect with grateful
hearts upon the moral uplift that is
everywhere apparent, in the great
civic awakening-in the regeneration
Of the public conscience, we have
reason for belief that better day is
dawning, that there will be less
worship of self. less love of power,
less lust of gold, less weakening of
faith, and that the return to honesty
and honor will lead easily and 1nevit-
ably to the walk of virtue, the way
of happiness, the path of glory. Out
of financial storms resultant from
the stress of an era of fraud and
frenzy, will come the sun. rising
from the darkness serene and smil-
ing, marking the muddjed pools
along the way. With the approach
of that newer and better order. let
US hope and believe will come more
abiding faith in free institutions.
liberty less tinged with license, pro.
gress more glorious. And unto Him
who holds in the hollow of His hand
the fate Of nations, and yet marks
the sparrows fall, let us lift our
healts. commencing ourselves, our
children, our country to His infinite
mercy and care.

BIG EDUCATION- --
AL GATHERING.

The meeting of the Northwestern
Teachers Association at Crookston
on Thursday and Friday last week
was the largest and most Important
gathering of educators that has ever
been held in this part of the state.
It is estimated that 800 teachers and
school officers were in attendance.
Marshall County was represented by
nearly all the teachers of the city
and village schools and many from
the country schools. The addresses
and discussions that were presented
were all able, and instructive prov
ing that There has been a great i'm
provement in the uperintending
and teaching force from what it was
few years ago. The higher salaries
now being paid uperintendents have
attracted better men to the service
and the same may be said in regard to
all the other teachers. There has
been marked educational growth in
all the Red River valley counties
during the past five years, that
augurs we'll for the future. From a
weak, struggling association which a
few years ago could hardly raise
sufficient funds to print the pro-
grammes of it's meetings, to -four
ishing organization of several
hundred members, is in short the
history of the Northwestern associta-
tion, and may it's power and in
f1uence for good never wane.
The city of Crookston. which en-
tertained the teachers has also grown
and improved in many ways. All
the visitors were we'll taken care of,
notwithstanding the large number,
and nothing was left undone to
make things pleasant all around.
