THANKSGIVING
PROCLAMATION.

From the time of its first obserN =
ance by the Pilgrims in the early days
of settlement, the National custom
of annually setting apart q day of
special Thanksgiving has year by
year established itself more firmly in
the hearts of our people. Revered
by the Fathers, il comes to us conse-
Grated by the observance of many
generations, and is today one of the
most beautiful heritages of American
rational lite.
In South Dakota the states people
approach the present Thanksgiving
season with full realization of the
manifold blessings and benefits which,
during the year soon to pass out, have
been their portion. AS a common
wealth, we recognize that their is a
Supreme Being who guides our des-
TIMES and it is meet that we should
pause in the midst of our activities 10
acknowledge our dependence upon
this Giver of all good and render to
Him in words of prayer and songs of
praise our greateful thanks for his di-
vine love and favor; therefore,
In accordance with the Proclama-
ton of the President and in harmony
with the spirit of the season, |, Frank
M. Byrne, Governor of the state of
South Dakota, do hereby appoint
Thursday. November rtwenty-seYenth,
as
THANKSGIVING DAY
and earnestly recommend that in
spirit as il, name it be Gav of real
thanksgiving.
Let it be day of homecoming, of
peace, rest and good cheer. Let it be
a season of prayer, of kind acts and
sweet benevolence; time of forgive
ness, reconciliation, mutual helpful
ness and broad charity, to the end
that family and civic ties may be
more closely welded together; to the
end that as individuals we may more
fully appreciate the laughter of little
! children, the unquenchable hopeful
ness of true manhood, and the con-
tentment of advanced age; and to
the further end that we may more
eagerly embrace the opportunities of
service with which every life is filed
and better comprehend the privilege
of working for the common good.
IN TESTIMONY WHEREOF, /
have hereunto set my hand and caus-
ed to be affixed the Great Seal of the
State of South Dakota this fourth
day of November. A. d. 1913.

Joseph Stalkus Was Fatally
Stabbed in Brawl in
Rutland
VICTIM PASSED AWAY
THIS MORNING
Police Have Peter Jacobinis,
Whom Stalkus Ac-
cused of Act

Rutland, Aug. ll.-Joseph Stalkus,
aged 35, of West Rutland, an employe
of the Howe Scale Works here, died this
morning at the Rutland hospital as the
result of two knife wounds in the breast
inflicted Saturday night, probably by
Peter Jacobinis of West Rutland, who is
under arrest. An autopsy is being made
this afternoon by DIR. B. H. Stone of
the state laboratory at Burlington. The
victim has a wife and one child.
The stabbing took place at a party
held at the home of Michael Lipinski in
West Rutland. The men were celebrat-
ing the arrival of man from the old
country, all being Lithuanians, when
Jacobnis made his appearance although
he was not on the invitation list.
After he had been served beer sew
eral times, Jacobinis was refused futher
attention and it is alleged he started
trouble with Stalkus, and the two men
were ordered from the house. On reach
ing the street the men continued their
dispute, and Stallels was stabbed twice,
one wound being just below the heart
and the other in the lower abdomen.
That was at 2 o'clock sunday morning.
Stalkus was first taken home and
later to the hospital in this city. Mean
while Sheriff f. C. Fish and Deputy P.
H. Patten and Constable r. f. Crawford
arrested Jacobinis, whom Stalkus charg-
ed with the stabbing

Hall, With II.

H. f. Hall, manager Of the Singer Sew.
ing Machine Co.'S local branch, who
drives Cadillac car, went up the Brook
street road with load OF refuse in
the rear OF his car Saturday. night.
Reaching the city dump, Mr.. Hall start
cd to find an advantageous spot from
which to dump the refuse.
In dodging an express team, whose
driver was casting about for the same
purpose, Mr.. Hall backed his car too near
the brink Of the high bank that skirts
the dump. Before he could bring his
reverse brakes into play, the machine
had pitched backward over the bank,
carrying with it the driver Mr.. Hall
emerged from the accident with pain
fully injured left leg which confined him
to the house nearly all day yesterday.
A wrecking crew from one of the city
garages learned afterwards that the car
had been damaged only slightly in going
over the bank. A derrick was planted
along the ridge Of the dump before the
car was raised to the road level again.
The owner was driving the machine again

FIVE BETHEL PLACES RArDED.
At Two of Them the Raiding Officers
Found Liquor.

Bethel, Aug. ia series of raids for
some time planned by Grand Juror II. II.
Dinsmore failed of complete success on
Saturday night, when five places were
visited by a group of officers includ-
ing Sheriff T.. w. Kent OF Orange county,
Deputy Sheriffs P. C. Tinkham of Roch-
ester and d. d. Howe of Randolph and
Constable John d. Wheeler.
At Mrs. Pietra Garcia's part of a bar
rel of beer and part of barrel of wine,
besides barrel OF empties, were seized.
Mrs. Garcia was released on her own
recognizance, being already under bonds
to county court on charge of selling.
Mrs Belle Flint was arrested, as was
an inmate of her boarding house named
Martineau, and she was held on the tech
nical charge of selling, although the
state is expected to charge later that a
disorderly house was kept. Small guam
titles of whiskey and beer were found
at her place. At three other places,
where haul was expected, nothing was
found.
Hearings were to be given on the Gar
cia and Flint cases to-day before JUS

Four Persons Narrowly Es-
capped Death in E. Mont
pelier Yesterday
THREE WERE INJURED
BUT NONE SERIOUSLY
Mrs. Charles Abbiatti and
Mrs. G. M. Davis
and Child

-Four persons narrowly escaped death
yesterday when carriage in which they
were riding was struck by wild engine
on the Montpelier & Wells River R. r.
at a point near East Montpelier yes
terday. The four endangered were Mrs
Charles Abbiatti of East Montpelier and
Mrs. G. NJ Davis and two children of
Barre. The two adults and one of the
children, a little girl, were badly bruised
and cut but escaped without broken
bones.
The party were on their way to church
in Plainfeld from the .Abbiatti farm
and they drove on the first crossing near
the Fairmont station just as the engine
came along Mr.. Abbiatti, who was driv-
ing in another team just behind, called
to his wife to back the horse off the
crossing. Mrs. Abbatti started to fol-
low the instructions and then decided
the safest course to be to 90 ahead, so
she urged the horse forward. The ami
NAL responded slowly and failed to get
the carriage off the track, the engine
striking the rear part and smashing it
to pieces and throwing the occupants
out. Mrs. Abbatti was hurled under the
vehicle and was thought to be injured
seriously. The horse came to a stand
still at command from Mr.. Abbiatti,
who came running from the second team.
The engineer stopped his train short
distance away and backed to the scene
of the collision, expecting to find one or
more killed or badly bleeding.
Mrs. Abbiatti was bleeding profusely
from deep cut under her chin and blood
flowed over her white dress, making her
condition seem worse than it really was.
Mrs. Davis had one knee and leg
wrenched and was confined to the bed
afterwards at the Abbiatti home, where
the injured were at once taken. A lit
tie girl Of Mrs. Davis was lacerated
about the face. DIR. Gale of Plainfield
was at once communicated with, and he
came to the Abbiatti home to attend
the injured.
That more serious results did not come
to the occupants is considered very lucky
indeed. Mrs Abbiatti will be remem
bered as former resident of Barre.

SMALL FIRE ON ROOF.
Was Extinguished Before Serious Dam
age Was Done.

A roof fire, thought to have been start
ed by locomotive spark, was smothered
lust in time to prevent serious blaze
at 10 o'clock this forenoon, when a pas
serby discovered smoke and fire on the
roof of the old Trow & Holden office,
so-ealled. off Granite street. The auto
mobile fire truck responded to still
alarm at l0:l5 and regulars aboard the
car reached the building in time to re-
lieve an emergency corps of fire fighters
who were going after the flames with a
garden hose. Three or four applications
from the chemical tank sutficed to drench
the fire and few moments after the
arrival of the truck the danger had
passed.
The loss is confined to an area OF some
six feet on the roof. The structure is
owned by Mrs. Calista Bolster and is To-
Gated in close proximity to a string OF
stonesheds which include the Bolster,
Carroll and old Marr & Gordon plants.
II is occupied by several families, who
believe that the blaze started when a
spark from an engine in the freight
yard caught on the shingles.

SEN. HOLLIS FLAYS
COTTON MILL OWNERS
Denies That New England Was Discrim-
mated Against in Tariff Bill and
That Tariff Would Ruin
Industry.

Washington, D. G., Aug. H. Senator
Hollis of New Hampshire, Democrat,
hayed the cotton manufactures of New
England in tariff speech to-day, in
which he declared that New England had
not been Disseminated against and he
characterized as false the charge that
the tariff reduction would ruin the tex.
tile industry there.
The cotton manufacturers have taken
the highest protection, he said, and paid
pauper wages. They are compelled by
statute to work humane hours and con-
duct their business on humane lines and
not one has voluntarily reduced the
hours of labor. They seek to control
government to prevent labor legislation,
to escape their just taxes, to control the
police and inferior courts and TO secure
military aid for the suppression of
strikes. They oppose the election OF
Democrats by coercing their employees.

lided with Studebaker automobile
driven by William f. Harvey and owned
by John F. Cook of the firm of Cook g.

rection. Neither machine seemed to be
moving rapidly, but the Cadillac struck
the Studebaker glancing clip along the
front wheel and brought both cars to
halt.
An inventory Of the damage revealed
a badly shattered front on the Stude-
baker machine, while Mr.. Miles car es-
capped with little damage. rough es-
innate of the loss on the Studebaker is
placed at 5000. One of the tenders was
jammed into shapeless mass of metal,
one of the forward wheels was stripped
from the axle was considerably wrench
ed. The Studebaker was hauled to a
garage for repairs.

LIND IS GIVEN
SMALL NOTICE
Wilson's Personal Represen-
tative Now in Mex
leo City
ARRIVAL IN CITY
NOT SENSATIONAL
Few People Were at the Sta
ton to See Him
Come

Mexico City, Aug. 1.-THE arrival OF
John Lind, the man whose mysterious
mission to Mexico was the direct cause
of a public manifestation yesterday in
support of General Huerta's attitude to-
ward American mediation, has of itself
been devoid of any thrills.
When Lind, as the personal represent
ative of President Wilson, alighted from
his train last night arter a tedious days
journey from Vera Cruz, there were only
q few persons about the station who
seemed at all curious to watch his move
ments. Most of them were newspaper
men and photographers.
Mr.. Lind persistently maintained the
reticerce he has observed since he was
summoned from his home in Minnesota
to undertake the mission to Mexico.
Just what he is to do or when he will
begin negotiations are as great mys-
terry as before his arrival.
Mexico City, Aug. In. f. Jennings
and Marvin Ferree, American newspaper
correspondents, were arrested last night
and held by order of the minister of the
interior. The nature of the charges
against them has not been made known.

On Barre Petition for Improved Service
On Barre Branch Line.

The hearing on the Board of Trade
petition to the public service commits

This became known to-day when counsel
for the Board of Trade stated that the
hearing had been postponed to an in

would come to Barre TO consider the pc
tition whenever the hearing is set.
The petition filed with the public
service commission by the Board OF
Trade asks for better service to the
main hne of the Central Vermont road
and was presented with view to secur-
ing improved conditions over the Barre
branch road From the outset it has
been understood that Montpelier's Board
of Trade would oppose the measures re-
quested by the local board. Originally
the hearing was set for Montpelier, but

SOMEONE TRYING
TO BRING ON WAR
President Wilson Let II Be Known As
His Belief But He Says There Is
No Occasion For Alarm.

dent Wilson let it be known to-day that
he was inclined to believe there was an
organized desire proceeding from sources
unknown to him to bring on war be-
tween the United States and Mexico.
tensive but as very troublesome.
There is no occasion for alarm in the
opinion of the president, who told his
callers to-day that within the last 4S
hours the Mexican situation has inn
proved materially. He made it clear
that the instructions to John Lind were
chiefly to inform the American govern
ment how things stood generally in Mex
leo and just what were the opportunities
for the good offices of the Upited States
in the interests Of Mexico.

FAVORED TROLLEY EXTENSION.
Barre Town Representatives Met the
Citv Council to Discuss Plans.

SeIectmen from Barre Town mot in
conference with Barre city councillors at
city hall Saturday afternoon 70 con-
slider the proposed extension of the
Barre & Montpelier Power & Traction
Co.'s lines from Washington street, to
East Barre. Websterville, Graniteville
and South Barre, and to connect with
the main line at the South Main street
terminus The town was represented by
+. C. Bancroft and f. /. Sargent, second
and third selectmen, respectively, while
the council had full representation
with the exception of Alderman Micfecl
Keefe, Mayor W. II. Ward presided.
The discussion was entirely of an infor-
NAL nature.
Representatives from Barre Town
seemed to favor any move that might
improve the transportation facilities be-
tween the four villages and the city.
The aldermen had already recorded
their views in the matter and it APP
peared to be the concensus of opinion
that the town and city together would
gain by the proposed extension. 1t was
finally decided that petitions would be
circulated among the residents of Barre
Town and presented to the traction
company. The same plan viii be fol-
lowed here and members of the Board of
Trade Merchants association, Manufac-
turers' association and other organiza-
tions will be asked TO register their
names in favor of the route. No definite
arrangements were made for a second
meeting. although it is likely that sew
eral conferences will follow within the
next few months Petitions will be
drafted at once and put into circula-
ton within few days.

NEW YORK POLICE
The Victims Throat Had

New York, Aug IA young woman
was found murdered shortly before mid
night in patch Of marsh ground near
Spuyten Duyvil creek in the northern ex-
tremity of Manhattan Island. Her throat
had been cut from ear to ear; her hands
were badly lacerated and her clothes
were torn. Footprints in the vicinity
bore other evidence that she had strug
gled vainly with one or more assailants
The body was found by Frank Callen,
who was taking short cut to his home.
He stumbled over the body, which was
still warm.
The woman was about 80 years of age
and was neatly clothed The police be-
lieve that she was decoyed to the lonely

unknown. There is no clue to the iden-
tity of the woman.

advance in the present delicate situation,
will defeat the very ends sought to be
accomplished.
"One of the principal objects OF Mr..
Lind's mission is to get information from
capable and reliable man who has
not been identified with either faction in
this controversy and upon such informa-
tion future action, in a measure, will
naturally be based.
There are some divergences OF opin-
ion in the committee. 1t could not be
otherwise. Some few favor more drastic
measures than Others. The committee
generally sympathizes with the presi-
dents desire to avoid intervention or
anything that will produce war. Even
those, however, who favor drastic meas
ures have confidence in the president and
are supporting him in his present efforts.
/ think, with a few exceptions, there is
no disposition to draw party lines. |
think that is true of both Republicans
and Democrats in the committee and in
the Senate generally.
"The president manifested strong
desire to have the cooperation of the
committee and OF the Senate and frankly
said he would be very glad to have any
suggestion from them either as individ-
uals or as body, and would welcome
their assistance. The senators seemed
gratified by that frank statement on
his part.
'While there is a small element in this
country that would like to see war, the
large majority of the people deprecate
it most earnestly and thoroughly sym
pathize with the desire of the president
to avoid it.
''There is no secrecy on the part of the
president as to the general purposes he
has in view and the general methods he
is trying to employ. While generalities
can be safely dealt with, there are some
matters of detail which in delicate sit
uation of this kind cannot be prema
turely made public Everybody realizes
that it is difficult question to handle
and the strongest expressions upholding
the president are heard from Republl-
cans, as we'll as Democrats, both in pri-
yate conversations and on the floor OF
the Senate.
"There never was a greater RESPONSE
bility on man than now rests on the
president of the United States to guard
this country against being involved in
war on account of Mexico, and | believe
that it is the duty of every man inside
and out of Congress, who has confidence
in the integrity and capacity OF the pres
dent to hold up his hands in the effort
he is making, and to do as little as
possible to embarrass him in working
out successfully the difficult undertake
ing
