Obituary..

Died, at his residence near Scrabble,
this county, October 26, 1911, James /.
Miller, aged 80 years, 2 months and ]
days. My husband, dear, kind husband,
can il be possible that you are dead :
Not dead, but gone to your last long
sleep. Oh, how long the time seems 10
me since you have been gone. Oh, how
miss you, none but God can ever know.
II seems as if can hear you calling me
by name. | can hear you say, "Bess,
sit by my bed, so can see you. would
stay with you, but can't. Don't worry,
we will meet again." Would have you
back to suffer again2 No, no, dear one /;
| would not have you suffer again, but
am coming. 1t may be years, it may not
be long, before we shall meet again. And,
oh. what meeting it will be I! Oh, how
different from our parting. Oh, how |
miss YOU, my good, kind husband, for
YOU were always so good and kind and
vour love was as steadfast and sincere as
heaven is pure and holy. II is indeed
hard to give up such a husband, but ii
is Gods will and | must submit. How
can ever forget him ? Now he has
gone to join the assembly OF the glorlfled
and his absence causes sadness deep to
rest upon me. Oh, may his invisible
hand be laid on my head and inspire me
to look up and live for glory unfailing and
life unending. BY his loving wife,
BESSIE MILLER.

Thanksgiving Proclamation.

From Chicago on Monday President
Taft issued his annual thanksgiving proc,
lamation, calling upon citizens of the
United States to celebrate Thursday, the
3Oth of November next, as the day o.
thanksgiving and prayer. The proclama-
ton reads as follows:
The people of this land, having by
long-sanctioned practice set apart toward
the close of each passing year a day or
which to cease from their laborS and as
semble for the purpose of giving praise
to Him who is the author OF the blessings
they have enjoyed, it is my duty as Chic
Executive to designate at this time the
day for the fulfillment of this devout pur-
pose.
Our country has been signally favored
in many ways. The round OF the sea-
sons has brought rich harveStS. Our in
dustries have thriven far beyond our do
mestic needs; the production of our labor
is daily finding enlarged markets abroad
We have been free from the curses Of
pestilence, of famine and OF war. Our
national counsels have furthered the
cause OF peace in other lands, and the
spirit of benevolence has brought us into
closer touch with other peoples, to the
strengthening of the bonds OF fellowship
and goodwill that link us to our COM
rades in the universal brotherhood of ma
tionS.
Strong in the sense of Our right and
inspired by as strong sense of the rights
OF others, we live in peace and harmony
with the world.
Rich in the priceless possession and
abundant resources wherewith the I'M
stinted bounty of God has endowed us,
we are unselfishly glad when other peo-
Piles pass onward to prosperity and
peace. That the great privileges we en-
Joy may continue, and that each coming
year may see ouf country more firmly
established in the regard and esteem Of
our fellow nations is the prayer that
should arise in every thankful reart.

THE government has instituted suit for
the breakingup Of the Steel Trust and il is
announced that active steps will be push
ed against the most gigantic of all cor
porations. II may not, perhaps, be kind
to discourage the administration in its
good intention, but few persons will en-
terrain enthusiastic hopes that any good
will be accomplished. Created and fos-
tered by the policy Of protection, the Steel
Trust has become almost as strong as the
government itself, and is now impregna-
bic. Consider the billions of dollars at
the command of the men who run the
Stee, Trust or who are its beneficiaries-
]. p Morgan and the other New York
financiers; Carnegie, whose untold wealth
is largely in its securities; the groups OF
millionaires in every commercial center
in this country who are making enormous
fortunes from the great combination-and
it must be admitted that the government
is practically helpless against such an I'M
limited aggregation OF wealth and influ-
ence.
There is only one way to get the better
OF the Steel Trust, and that is to remove
or largely reduce the tariff on its products.
The tariff is responsible for the evil-re-
moyal OF the tariff is the only cure.

Albert Johnson and Washington Drew,
two young colored men of Martinsburg,
figured in frightful run-off about II
O'Clock last Sunday night on their return
drive from Shepherdstown in one Of
Liveryman Leslie Staples rigs. When
near Winebrenner's Cross Roads one
side of the shafts became loosened from
the axle and fell on the horses heels.
The horse gave lunge and ierked the
lines out of Drew's hands and then started
to run. Johnson was thrown out and
pretty severely bruised. The horse ran
ON for some distance, when Drew'S ef-
forts to recover the lines caused him to
be thrown against telephone pole,
where he was afterwards found uncon-
scious, being badly cut and bruised about
the head and face. He was revived at a
house nearby, and later the two young
men walked home. The horse ran on
to Kearneysville, where he was caught
The buggy was wrecked. Drew FORM
erly lived in ShepherdStown.
