WANTS REPRIEVE
FOR ]. WYNNE
Seamen's Agent Liddy Asks the
:, ce.Goyernor to Appeal to
President.

Before Governor Frear departed on
! the transport Crook for San Francisco
I last evening, he was interviewed by
Joseph T. Liddy, agent of the Sailors
tsiUnion, with reference TO reprieve
for John Wynne, who was sentenced
last Friday to be hanged on February
II, 1909, for the murder of Engineer
McKinnon of the steamship Roseerans.
Mr.. Liddy states that in the very
short time of the interview before the
Crook pulled out, Governor Frear
promised to do what he could on be-
half Of Wynne.
Mr.. Liddy, desiring to express his
thanks to the Governor, has mailed the
following letter OF thanks to him, to
go forward by the Alameda today,
and to be delivered aboard the trans
port Crook on arrival at San Fran
cisco about Wednesday or Thursday
of next week:
November Is, a908.
Hon. W. F. Frear, Governor of Ha-
waii.
Your Excellency: I most respect
fully take the liberty of rendering my
most heartfelt thanks to you for the
interview you granted me on board
the Z. s. A. T. Crook, previous TO your
departure.
In asking you to intercede with
President Roosevelt for the reprieye
of poor John Wynne, I would say that
Judge Dole was visibly affected when
he read the sentence and, moreover,
everyone in court was astonished at
the verdict rendered by the jury, even
u. s. Prosecuting Attorney Rawlins.
For the sake of God and the poor,
old. gray-haired widowed mother of
John Wynne. who is unconscious OF
her son 5. peril. I implore OF you 70
use your utmost influence to get
reprieve for this unfortunate man, who
always bore an excellent character and
who is now sentenced to be hanged
on the 18th day Of February, 1909.
Two days were spent by the defense
in battling for directed verdict, and
may God, in his infinite mercy, bless
Judge Dole for the manner IN whIch
he instructed the jury, and it is
through no fault of his that verdict
Of manslaughter was not rendered IN
stead Of murder, as charged IN the IN
dietment.
Therefore. Your Honor, [ again
beseeeh your intervention,
not only for the scke Of humanity,
but for the sake of Wynne ) poor old
mother. who was dependent on him
and who we are hiding his awful
plight from. and last. but not least,
for the sake Of the paradise-like
shores of our unsullied Territory.
In conclusion. I ask the Almighty
God to grant that you may be success
full in obtaining from our ideal Presi- |
lent another manifestation of his gem
erous. brave. manly. LincolnLike atti- |
-ude regarding man : humanity to
nan
I have the honor to subscribe my
self, yours supplieatingly.

 trusts would never try To gooble everything and let the little dealer die We celebrate Thanksgivin' day because the PiL
 erims came In search of freedom where they knew that they
 would find the same, Where men would be brothers, where the
 strong would aid the weak, Where bbury would raise her flag on every
 crag and peak, Where bIonaires would never dare to chea.
 for profits sake Or break the laws that other men were not al

 Pilgrim band Have all come true because there's not an evil

 plot and scheme To make the libburty we claim vain and empty
 dream, Because our magnates go to church and teach
 in Sunday schools, And everywhere from sea to sea the Christian
 spirit rules We keep ThanksgVin' day because the man who
 does his best To be an honest citizen is honored by the rest; He may not have share of stoos or own foot

 his hand And hear his plea and guard his rights with al,

SOME REMARKS FROM MINNIE.
 SOFIA EDITORS.
What They Think of Western Canada.

A party of editors from a number of cities and towns of Minnesota recently made a tour of Western Canada. and having returned to their homes they are now telling in their respective newspapers of what they saw on their Canadian trip The West St Paul Times recalls the excursion of the Minnesota editors from Winnipeg to the Pacific Coast ten years ago. Re ferriEs to what has happened in the interval the writer says Thousands of miles e. neg railway lines have been built, and the development Of the country has made marvellous strides Millions of acres. then lying in their wild and untouched state. have since been transferred into grain fields. Towns have sprung up as if by the wand of a magician. and their development is now in full progress. IL is a revelation. a record Of conquest by settlement that is remarkable"
 The Hutchinson Leader character. izes Western Canada as "a great eoun. try undeyeloped. The summer out. ing, 1t says, was an eye-opener 10 every member of the party, even those who were on the excursion through Western Canada ten years ago. over considerable of the territory covered this year, being amazed at the prog ress and advancement made in that short space of time. The time will come when Western Canada will be the bread-basket of the world It was a delightful outing through a great country of wonderful possibil iues and resources"
 Since the visit of these editors the Government has revised is land regu- lations and it IS now possible to se- cure lG0 acres of wheat land at s3.00 an acre in addition to the 160 acres that may be homesteaded.
 The crops of 1908 have been splen- did. and reports from the various dis tricts show good yields, which at pres. ent prices will give excellent profits to the farmers.
 From Milestone. Saskatchewan, there are reported yields of thirty bush. els of spring wheat to the acre, while the average is about 20 bushels. The quality of grain to be shipped from this point will be about 600,000 bush els. Information regarding free lands and transportation will be freely given by the Canadian Government Agents

Mark Twain and party of friends recently went to visit the studio of young sculptor who IS eCning rapidly into public notice. One of the pieces which was admired greatly by the ma, tority of the party was the figure of a young woman eoiling up her hair. Mark listened to the encomiums in silence. and when urged for an er p-ession of opinion said slowly:
 It is beautiful, but it IS not true to nature"
 All expressed their surprise at this unexpected verdict and demanded his reasons.

suing proclamation of a public Thanksgiving day. The invitation was accepted, and in November. 1632, Plymouth colony and Massachusetts Bay colony cele- brated Thanksgiving day to- gether in manner pretty much the same as their de scendants of today, in re- ligious service and feasting and funmaking The one noticeable omission was the great football game which marks the day in our generation.
 From 1G32 until 1G77 the New England records show that % diff ferent dates were set apart by the various governors as days for pub lie thanksgiving, and that with the exception of the two colonies men. toned no two held the day on tho same date. The celebrations, how ever, were held in October or No vember
 In 1677, as other denominations lad crept into Plymouth colony. over which the Puritan church had no ruling, the governor decided that it would be well to have the power of fixing public holidays, whether for feasting, praying or funmaking.' vested in civic au- thority Accordingly in that year the first printed Thanksgiving day proclamation was printed. Thanks giving day proclamation was print ed. setting November 25 as the festival.
 The law reads: That it be in the power of the governor and as sistants to command solemn dates of humiliation by fasting, etc, and also thanksgiving as occasion shall be offered"
 This shows that the law called for only occasional Thanksgiving days and so the holiday was buff feted about hither and yon, from October to November, according to the pleasure of the rulers of the colonies and there never was any feeling of certainty as to the holi- day
