 Another year has passed into his tory and the people Of Arkansas have much for which they should be truly thankful. Our lands generally have yielded bountifully; our educational advantages are greatly increased dis. coveries of science have greatly re- tarded the ravases of disease, no pes. ulence, war nor epidemis has visited our citizens; the enforcement of the law Is more certain and crime is on the decrease human life Is sacred and our homes are inviolate accident and chance have governed less the affairs of state than have deliberate judgment and formulated plan. We are, in fact, plsnteous in everything that the hand of labor can produce.
 True. We have probably ovsresti- mated our success and undervalued our failures; yet we should realize that in everything God has some de- sign beyond human intelligence. which always results in our ultimate good. The citizenship Of our state know that gratitude Is but measure of the heart and it's expression an index to the soul.
 Therefore l, George W. Donaghey governor of Arkansas, in eonnormity with the proclamation of the presi- dent of the United States, do hereby designate Thursday, November 30, 1911, as day of prayer and general thanksgiving, and urge that the peo- pie cease their accustomed occupa- tions and all assemble in their places of worship or in their homes and, ac- cording to their several preferences, join in offering praisss to God for their manifold blessings"

 Los Angeles, Cal.-The fourth and fifth jurors were accepted and sworn in the NcNamara murder trial.
 A feature of the trial was evidence that John J. McNamara is taking a hand in the selection of the jurors to try his brother, James B., for the al legged murder of Charles J. Haggerty, one of the 21 victims of the Los An geles Times explosion of a year ago.
 From his cell in the county jail. where he is held pending trial on joint indictment with his brother, John J. McNamara sent word that "C. A. Heath, being of English birth, would not be suitable, in my opinion, to try an Irishman," and Heath was removed by peremptory challenge.
 The two new jurors are J. B. Sex ton, rancher and real estate dealer, and William Andre, formerly a union carpenter. He does not now belong to a union.
