THANKSGIVING PR0CLAMA-
TON Of PRESIDENT TAFT
Is a Prayer For Peace Among the
Nations of the World.

President Taft has issued his annual
Thanksgiving proclamation calling upon
citizens Of the United States to cele-
brate Thursday, the Both of November
next, as a day of thanksgiving and
prayer. The proclamation reads as
follows:
The people of this land, having by
long sanction and practice set apart to-
ward the close Of each year day on
which to cease from their labors and
assemble for the purpose of giving
praise to Him who is the author of the
blessings they have enjoyed, it is my
duty as Chief Executive to designate at
this time the day for the fulfllment OF
this devout purpose.
Our country has been signally favor
ed in many ways. The round of the
seasons has brought rich harvests. Our
industries have thriven far beyond our
domestic needs, the productions of our
labor are daily finding enlarged markets
abroad We have been free from the
curses Of pestilence, of famine and war.
Our national counsels have furthered
causes 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 fell
lowship and good will that links US to
our comrades in the universal brother
hood of nations,
"--r IN the sense Of our own right
ar red by . strong sense Of rights
T. others, we live in peace and harmony
with the world. Rich in the priceless
possessions and abundant resources
wherewith the unstinted bounty of
God has endowed Us we are unselfshly
glad when other peoples pass onward to
prosperity and peace. That the great
privileges we enjoy may continue, and
that each coming year may see our
country more firmly established in the
regard and esteem of our fellow nations
is the prayer that should arise in every
thankful heart.
Wherefore l, William Howard Taft,
President of the United States of Amer
lea, designate Thursday, the 30th of
November next, as day Of thanksgiv-
ing and prayer, and l earnestly call
upon my countrymen and upon all that
dwell under the flag of our beloved
country then to meet their accustomed
place of worship to join in offering
praises to Almighty God and devout
thanks for the loving mercies He has
given to US.
In witness thereof I have hereunto
set my hand and caused the seal of the
United States to be affixed.
Done at the city of Chicago, this
Both day of October, in the year Of
Our Lord. one thousand nine hundred
and eleven and of the independence Of
the United States of America the one
hundred and thirty-sixth

Were interested In their hon e
towns. Always were they on the
alert for some means Of bringing
more wealth, more beauty, more re-
hnement, more security to Their ma
tive cities. That's why they were
the most progressive nation of all
the world in their day. Their efforts
were at all times directed toward
the betterment of their homes and
conditions.
Are you interested in the upbuild-
ing of your own town?
Do you want to do something that
will help to boom the town of Bar
bOurville?
How would you like to he instru-
mental In increasing the value of
property in the town in which you
livei
Every public-spirited man can
answer these quest ions in u salts
factorp manner.
Here is one mans answer: "rhe
erection of a new building stimu-
lates public spirit The sight of an
old, delapidated, leaky, eye-sore
has the opposite effect. A new
building, well-appointed and artist
ically designed will Increase the
value of all adjoining propo rty. 1t
will be source OF pleasure to all
who chance to pass by it. 1t will
bring people from other parts to see
it.
These things are coming to Bar

Do you desire to have a hand in
increasing the value of property, of
promoting goodwill and creating
public spirit?

The negro accused of the robbery
and assault on Mrs. Leonard Rosick
at noon on Wednesday was taken in
to custody at. Pueblo about 10 o'clock
this morning and locked up in the
county Jail there for safekeeping. 1t
had been known since about 6 o'clock

this morning was no surprise TO the
authorities here.
Sheriff Esser, in company with a
couple of police officers, detailed for
the purpose, made a search of the
country around Pueblo Thursday af-
ternoon, and, at a point five or six
miles west of the city got glimpse
OF the man they were looking for
but were unable to effect his cap
ture. The trip into the country was
made in an automobile, and, before
reaching a ranch house where it was
thought the negro might be in hid

GERS made a reconnaissance on foot
in order to make a thorough explora-

was assigned to search a certain por-

rated before proceeding to the house.
While Sheriff Esser was conducting
his Investigations in the place des-
ignated for him several rifle shots
rang out in. rapid succession a
hundred yards or more down the rail-
