Thanksgiving.

For years it has been the Gus.
tom Of the United States to OBJ
serve the last Thursday of No
vember as Thanksgiving day.
This is day set apart by the
president as holiday, and also
a religious day to acknowledge
the goodness Of God in any re.
markable deliverance from dan
ger, or in the ordinary dispense
ton of his bounties, and for of
fering up thanksgiving for the
blessings bestowed upon the Am
erican people and our country.
1t is looked forward to by all as
a day of reverence and in every
city and town throughout the ma.
ton special services will be held
in commemoration of this event
full day.
How much the citizens have to
be thankful for in the beautiful
land of the free. The country
has become stronger and more
prosperous in the past few years
and is growing rapidly in the de-
partment of finance. From re-
ligious standpoint there has been
an enormous gain in converts
during the past year. The Am.
orleans are very hospitable,
thrifty and energetic people, al
ways striving for the welfare OF
their nation. Thanksgiving is
the expression of gratitude for
favors and mercies. The turkey
is significant of this day and is
generally included in the festivi-
ties. One often sees a picture
of the Puritans in the early days
on their way to the house of wor-
ship and the father carrying a
rifle on the lookout for danger
from the Indian, who in those
times preyed upon the early set
tiers. May the people of this
great universe offer up prayer:
to the Divine Spirit who has
rendered it possible for us to &C
complish such great feats in the
past century, and from a relig
ious, moral and financial stand.
point may grow stronger yeal
by year. Let every child ant
adult observe this day through
out the land.

much reforestry as is practica-
BILE at present? How much less
is this area than the Black
forest of Germany? One thing
is certain, reforestry is impOssl-
BILE without adequate fire protec-
ton. Every acre of land set
aside for reforestry must be
properly watched and fires kept
out. Suppose practically all of our
northern lands, as Prof. Roth's
idea, should be set aside for re-
forestry, how foolish it would be
TO try to reforest such lands with
out amplefire protec ton. What
would this cost the state? Let
US see the results from the pres
ent forestry reserve before ask
ing us to 60 extensively into a
theoretical proposition.
1t is so easy to talk about this
beautiful land of forests again,
but give us the right down prac
tical side of it. We talk about
our flooded rivers in the spring
owing to the cutting away of for
ests. This is undoubtedly true.
If reforestry is entered into, why
not along or near the sources of
our most important rivers? Do
we ever stop to think what the
damming of our rivers for indust-
ries has meant when taking into
consideration the natural flow of
river waters? Perhaps this
might explain partly the flood
problem.
Prof. Roth attacks the present
system Of disposing of our state
lands as expensive and wasteful.
The state has realized practically
81, 900, 900 from the sale of its
lands since the passage of the
act of 1901, approximately 81. %
an acre. 1t has licensed 306,0
acres to actual settlers and of
that acreage decided $50, 600 acres
to those who completed their
b IN d contracts. Any
lands delinquent for five years
taxes or more are subject to
deciding to the state by the aud
itor general. After being decided
to the state the people are prac-
tically under no expense for their
disposal. The statements made
by Prof. Roth along this line are
misleading. Only while they
are in the hands of the auditor
general is the state put to much
expense for advertising, etc.
Reforestry of natural pine
lands, such as have borne a good
crop of pine, also of cut-over
hard wood lands may be posi-
bic if given ample fire protection.
In reforesting this class of lands,
however, we should not set aside
for an indefinite period any lands
which will be suitable either for
agriculture or grazing. Our
northern counties will never be
settled if we give the acreage
asked for by our reforestry en-
thusiasts. We must not be mis-
led by the expense of our pres
ent system, which. when rightly
understood, will show a hand
some profit to the state. Refor-
estry of the right class Of lands
we heartily endorse, but let us
confne ourselves to an acreage
unsuitable for agriculture and
grazing and eliminate the refor-
estry of the jack pine barrens as
unfeasible, so that we will be
proceeding along lines that will
appeal to the people as practica-
bic. We must not try to reforest
areas so extensive that we can
not afford to give adequate fire
protection. What we do do let us
do we'll and do not let US be car
ried off our feet by lot of talk
that is so beautiful in theory we
hardly know how to determine
its practical side.

Hearst for President.

Today's New York American. in COM
menting on the announcement that the In
dependence League is to be made national
organization, says:
1.-The American people have wearied Of
being herded into parties. They are tired
of following politicians who are in politics
for hire and for the profit of corrupt cor
pora tions. The tendency toward indie
pendent voting. which has been manifested
in recent elections. is still growing. That
is the peoples only hope. 1t was the spirit
of independence that made this nation and
1T is the spirit Of independence that must
preserve it.
1.-The causes that made the league power
in this city and state are general through
out the country. The people have come to
feel a profound dstrust of both old parties.
The disclosures of the trust contributions
to the last republican national campaign
fund are only equaled by the fact that the
democratic national executive committee is
made up of men for the most part noto-
rous for corporation associations. Party
government is responsible for present con-
ditons. 1t can hardly be expected to re-
move it's own handiwork.
Is not this notice that the league will be
in the field next year with a candidate for
President? And is there a man anywhere
half so we'll qualified to lead the league as
Mr.. Hearst? He is at once it's creator and
it's preserver. 1t sprang from his brain, and
draws its sustenance from his large and
rotund wallet. He stood last year as its
candidate for Governor of New York.
and why should he not stand next year as
it's candidate for President of the United
States? ~
Mr.. Bryan wants to believe that Mr.
Hearst is pointing in the direction of
democratic ideals, but his views are not
supported by Mr.. Hearst'S own deliver
ances. We have in this American edito-
rial the distinct charge that the demo-
cratic party is as unworthy as the re-
publican party, and that both parties
should be defeated in the interests of the
country. What says Mr.. Bryan to that?

The Speed Craze.

Here is a dispatch recently received from
Naples
"An appalling automobile accident oc-
miles distant from Naples today, five
men being killed. The motor car, which
was going at high speed, ran into rock
and was demolished Among the killed was
Prince PeScara, a member of the Italian
nobility and related to the Spanish royal
house. on account of whose death the aris-
tocracy of the whole of lower Italy will be
in mourning"
So widespread is the speed craze so fran
tic thousands of people to travel over
the ground at dangerous pace, that this
form of telegram might almost be kept
standing, to be changed as to dates places
and numbers and names of the killed The
death toll is mounting rapidly Practically
every day q fatal motor car accident is
reported and in almost every instance the
fault lies with the operator of the machine,
who, doubtless acting under orders to get
the maximum speed out of his car, is defy
ing the rules of safety and taking the mar
rowest chances in order to burn the road"
Now 1t is a bursting tire, now a falling
clutch now a breaking axle. now a cranky
brake that causes the car to get out of con-
troll. But these accidents of failure are
not the only ones that occasion disaster
Often the car is rushed ahead so fast that
it cannot be guided properly; the wheels
skid or some slight unevenness in the road
throws the machine out of line Again.

Jailed But Acting.

San Francisco's experience in the matter
OF Its mayor suggests the urgent need of
reformatory legislation to provide against
such extraordinary spectacles as that now
presented. Though convicted of crime COM
mitted in his official capacity and jailed,
Mayor Schmitz persists in regarding himself
as the only lawful municipal executive and
ignores the efforts of the board of super
yisors to Gust him from power and SUBJ
stitute an acting mayor in his stead He
issues orders from Jail. signs documents
there and goes through all the motions of
acting as the head of the local government
The substitute administration has under
taken TO reOrganize the police force, but the
head Of that department refuses to recog-
nize its orders. The other day the chief of
police declined to honor a permit for a box
Ing bout signed BY the acting mayor and
refused TO allow the sport to proceed I'M
III d permit had been sent to the city Jail
and signed by Schmitz
Naturally such a state of affairs leads
quickly to chaos and San Francisco is
closely approximating that condition today
There is no law applicable to the emer-
gency. Schmitz having been formally elect
ed mayor, remains such to the end of his
term, according to his view. San Francisco
failed in the days of organizing its govern
mayor going to Jail and neglected to insert
clause in its statutes providing for the
automatic custer of any official who while
serving the city should be convicted of
crime
Not long ago effort was made to estab-
liSh recall scheme in some of the west
ern cities. The plan was to provide for a
chance for the people. after choosing a mu-
nicipal officer, to submit him to a second
election, 10 test public sentiment upon his
fitness to serve. This designed to
eliminate any official who might be sus-
pected or proved guilty of malfeasance or
any action contrary TO good public morals.
In Schmitz's case recall election would
probably result in his immediate custer by
formal vote. but far more effective and sat
isfactory and less costly would be a straight
forward provision of law that any municipal
official convicted of crime should by the fact
OF conviction be ousted from his place

Half a Century of Marvellous Growth,

In 1889 two-story tavern stood at the
corner of Broadway and 23d street. New
York. 1t was at about the northern limit
of the area supposed then TO include bust
ness New York. 1t was moderately pros
porous little house. Across the street
Madison Square was little more than a
public pasture. There We're no sky
scrapers in the vicinity, and trade had
only begun TO straggle uptown to that
point. Amos r. Emo. business man of
more than ordinary foresight, had faith
in the northward tendency of the big city
and purchased the two-story tavern and
the adjacent territory to the total extent
OF eighteen city lots. On this site he
erected giant hotel. a mammoth for those
days, costing s2.00O,0O0, site and all.
Wiseacres shook their heads in sorrowful
anticipation of Mr.. Eno's financial col
lapse. The town would never support such
a hostelry. 1t would never grow out to
1T. Mr.. Emo, however. kept on and pros
pered. The war came and the Fifth Ave-
rue Hotel became headquarters for troops
moving south and for officers visiting New
York on business. II soon became also a
political center, a character it preserved
for many years. Much history was writ

Graves and Roosevelt.

We must all be little cautious about the
outgivings of John Temple Graves. Not that
Mr.. Graves is a faker. but that he is
rhetorician and an enthusiast. When he
sees things favorably he sees them double.
When he praises he praises to the skies.
Once his approval is secured. there is no
limit to 1t.
At jamestown Mr.. Graves was developed
to the full. 1t was Georgia day. and Geor-
gia was out in force. 1t was likewise Roose-
vet day and Mr.. Roosevelt was present In
person. Everybody was proud and happy.
Georgia was proud of Mr.. Roosevelt. and
Mr.. Roosevelt of Georgia. Mr.. Graves was
proud of both. JOY was unconfined. Those
who had good cheer to tap untapped 1t in
full flow. The Gay was one never to be for
gotten.
Mr.. Graves it seems. improved the occa-
sion to refer to his scheme for ''an era of
good feeling" AS he puts it, nothing
could be more beautiful. He wants Mr..
Roosevelt reelected President, and thinks
the democrats should support him. Why
not? Policies which both parties have sup
ported III Congress both parties could afford
to support at the polls. Let Mr.. Roosevelt,
then. be the nominee of both parties next
year. and become President for another
four years by reclamation.
Unless Mr.. Graves Is mistaken-unless he
read some of his own enthusiasm into the
Presidents reception of the suggestion
there encouragement for the Graves
Idea. Mr., Roosevelt we are told, was so
touched by the Georgian's assurances that
he stated the condition upon which he
would withdraw his declaration not to stand
again for the presidency. Let him but be
assured of the electoral vote of a single
southern state, thereby breaking the solid
south and he would run again, Whereby
Mr.. Graves-to whom all things are easy
assured him at once of Georgia and several
other southern states
But by what authority did Mr.. Graves
speak? He is not in politics He has no
pull with politicians, The lower southern
states are democratic to the core, and in
the control of men who play the game to
the limit. Their hearts and their livings
are in the game. Not a one of them is
echoing the Graves suggestion. Not a one
Is likely to do so. All are preparing for a
straight party nomination, and when that
Is made all will support it,
Many democrats in the south admire Mr.
Roosevelt, just as many of them admired
Mr.. Mckinley. But the lower south
voted against the latter in both of his races
80 will 1t vote against the former If he is
nominated next year. The voice from Geor-
gia is that of phrase-maker and not of
a practical politician
