President Taft Issues Annu.
al Holiday Proclamation
Names Thursday, Nov. Goth
as a Day for Thanksgiv-
ing by People.

AHiCdRO, OcC. %. 1rcSluenC all
today issued his annual Thanksgiving
proclamation, calling upon citizens OF
the United States to celebrate Thurs
day, Nov. 80, next, as day OF
Thanksgiving and prayer. The pro-
clamation reads as follows:
j The people of this land having
by long sanction and practice set a.
part toward the close of each passing
year day ON which to cease from
their labors and assemble for the pur-
pose 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 fulfillment of this de-
vout purpose.
Our country has been signally
favored in many ways. The round
of the seasons has brought rich har-
vests. 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 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 good will that link us
to our comrades in the universal
brotherhood of nations. Strong in
the sense of our own right and inspir-
ed by as strong sense of the rights
of others, we live in peace and har-
mony with the world. Rich in the
priceless possession and abundant re-
sources, where with the unstinted
bounty of God has endowed us, we
are unselfishly 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 re-
gard 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 America, designate Thursday, the
thirtieth of November, next, as a day
of thanks giving and prayer and l
earnestly call upon my countrymen
and upon all that dwell under the
flag of our beloved country, then to
meet in their accustomed places of
worship to join in offering praise to
Almighty God and devout thanks for
the loving mercies He has given to
us.
In witness thereof, | have here
unto set my hand and caused the seal
of the United States to be affixed.
Done at the city of Chicago, this
thirtieth day of October, in the year
of Our Lord, one thousand nine hum
dred and eleven, and of the indepen-
dence of the United States of Ameri-
ca, the one hundred and thirty sixth.

Prospects for Increased Business
Activity for Fall and Winter

Indicative of the prospects for in
creased business activity throughout
the northwestern states this fall and
winter is the report by the statistical
department. of the Spokane chamber
Of commerce, which places the farm
value of agriculture, including live
stock, poultry, fruit and vegetables,
in Washington, Oregon, Idaho and

900, or more than $91 per capita
Of total population of 1866. 900.
The wheat yield of the four states
is estimated at rs, 100000 bushels,
as against 65, 1870, 900 in 1910, while
the hay crop is placed at 4 $50, 900
tons as compared with 1850, 900
tons year ago. Oats, barley, rye,
potatoes and hops show average in
creases ranging from 10 to % per

LOST SON IS
BEING SOUGHT
J. R. Chapman is Looking for his
Boy Missing Since last May
mo Punishment

Because they received news that
their son, Sam Chapman. who ran
away from home last May and all
trace of whom has been lost for
months, was killed in Pendleton
last week, ]. r. Chapman and wife,
rancher and fruit man of the
Polk county hills, fastened to PEN
dleton only to find that the report
was erroneous, and that the young
man killed was not their son.
Ever since last May, when Sam
Chapman and Ben Milton forsook
their studies in the Salem High
School. and choose to roam the
wilds of Oregon, Mr.. Chapman has
been searching for his son, who, he
says, is but 4 years old. Reading
stories of wild west life fired the i'm
agination of the lads and they started
out in search of adventure.
The father, Mr.. Chapman, in
writing to The Courier, in the
effort to find his son, this week says
that the son, who had always stood
high in his classes, had a falling
out with his Latin teacher who
failed him in that study. He be-
came morose and left school in
company with the Milton boy. The
Milton boy was found last week on
the Umatilla Reservation. He said
that the Chapman boy had left there
for Walla Walla sometime before
saying that he was going to Walla
Walla to work in the hay and grain
fields, then bear over toward the
hop and fruit orchards and earn
money enough to 60 to school this
winter. He was dressed in a new
suit of light gray, had a soft white
hat with the crown smashed down
"a way he always wore it) has dark
eyes and hair. which was cut POM
padore when he left. He walked
very upright and is polite and
gentlemanly, and somewhat diff
dent with strangers.
His father states that the boy
feared his parents would send him
to the reform school, from the infor-
nation he could gather from the
the boys chum, and which is far
therest from their minds. He writes
that he wants it impressed on the
boys mind that he will in no wise
be sent to the reform school, and if
he so desires they will not even in
sist that he come home at present.
They simply desire to have him
write and let them know where he
is, so that they may help him if oc-
casion requires.
The father wants to find the lad
and says further that his son is an
