THANKSGIVING
in FACE OF DISMAL PROSPECTS
PIONEERS RAISED THEIR
VOICES IN GRATITUDE WHEN
GOVERNOR PROCLAIMED DAY.

Thanksgiving, the national holiday,
when thoughts turn yearningly to-
ward the ''old folks atshome," when
the heart again thrills with interest
in those best beloved, is 81 years old
in the northwest. 1t was just half
a century ago that Governor John
Whitaker of Oregon issued his sim
pie proclamation calling on the peo-
pie of the new state to lay aside their
labors far day and gather together
to give thanks for the manifold bless
ings which a divine Creator had show
cred upon them. Characteristic OF
the pioneer governor, the message to
his people was simple and brief. 1t
spoke eloquently of the rugged Chris
tianity of the early settlers, isolated
in a western wilderness.
The states" as all the country
east of the Rocky mountains was
known at the time, were trembling
ON the brink of civil war. John
Browns raid at Harper's Ferry had
sent thrill of terror throughout the
country, yet hope was strong that
open warfare might be averted. With

mail facilities requiring from three
weeks to a month for letter to come
from the Missouri river, it was i'm
possible for the people to get in
touch with public sentiment quickly,
but by Thanksgiving day the facts
were generally spread wherever set
Elements of any size existed.
The first Thanksgiving day was
observed with more apprehension and
more prayer for the future peace of
the country than with Thanksgiving
for the blessings received. Yet the
day was Thanksgiving, and the rec
ords show that in the crude places
of worship the people gathered, sang
songs of praise and listened to SER
mons Of thanksgiving for the bless
ings which had been bestowed during
the past twelvemonth. Crude as the
service was it has a place in the his
tory of Oregon above all the thanks

But the beginning of Thanksgiving
in the Oregon Country" goes back
seven years earlier, into the history
of territorial days. For the first gath.
ering of the people for a service oil
thanksgiving took place December 8
1852. At that time Oregon occu-

Carnegie Has Given Away S15S, OOO,.

New York, Nov 29.-Andrew Car
negie, capitalist, manufacturer and
philanthropist, celebrated his 72nd
birthday Thursday. He spent the
day quietly in his fifth avenue home
in company with his family and a
few intimate friends invited to par
take of the Thanksgiving dinner.
Mr.. Carnegie is still devoting the
most of his time and attention to his
vast schemes of philanthropy. Col
leges, hospitals and the hero fund, to
gether for the Foundation for the
Advancement of Learning, are receiv-
ing most attention. The great phil
anthropist is not giving much money
nowadays for libraries, though he
says he is we'll satisfied with the re-
suits of his expenditures in the IL
brary line.
A recent estimate places the total
