Reason for Giving Thanks.

1t is three hundred years since
Thanksgiving day was first celebrated
on the American continent The Pill
grim band, though they had lost half
their numbers during the first winter
at Plymouth, and though they were
beSet by hardships and by fear Of
their savage neighbors, found in the
survival OF the little colony and in
the hope Of a gradually ameliorating
lot just cause for thanksgiving to God.
Have we, who have inherited the in.
situations and the spiritual ideals that
they labored to establish, less reason
than they to be thankful?
Like the other nations of the world
the United States has reached great
social and political crisis. We have
passed through a great war, and we
begin to feel the burden of debt and
disaster that the war laid upon man.
kind. Our trade is disarranged !;
neither financially nor economically are
we so prosperous as we are wont to
be. We are little afraid Of the flu
ture, for we have been shaken out Of
the easy and comfortable confidence
in our own efficiency in which we have
been used to live
But great material prosperity is not
always a matter for thanksgiving. 1t
sometimes softens and disspates the
strength and virtue of nation. Per-
haps nations like men should echo the
prayer of Agur: "Give me neither
poverty nor riches" We have enough
and, like the Pilgrims, we can reason
ably hope for an increasing store OF
comforts in the coming years. Is there
not ample cause for thanksgiving in
the fact that, although the nation has
been tried by adversely and loss and
assailed by doubt and misgivings, it
shows no sign of losing its heart or its
head ? The gospel of hard work and
cheerful courage still counts most
Americans as its adherents. We are
working our way out of the depression
that the war caused.
We do not thank God because our
way is the way OF fairness and Of
peace, but because, in the time Of test
ing and trial, our people are able to
quit themselves like men.-Youth's

not sufficiently wide to permit the
passage OF two trucks. However, the
draw span nj the center is sufficiently
wide for this purpose. so that, accord
ing to Mr.. Mackall, the delay of traf-
nc over the bridge will be neglible, and
1t will be many years before widening
becomes necessary.
The State will continue to charge
tolls for the use Of the bridge until
the bonds to be issued for the purchase

will be in 1898, when the bridge will
automatically become free bridge

the State will be reduced accordingly.
The toll charge for foot passengers will
be eliminated as soon as the State
takes over the bridge, and it is expect
ed that the charges on automobiles
will be somewhat reduced.

Ire owners of tie bridge rot il for
nothing. Their original capital was
500, which was paid for purposes Of
organization. The PENNSYLVANIA Rail.
road Company gave them the bridge
and even converted it into a highway
bridge for them. 1t had previously
orered the bridge to the State. and
~hen the State refused to accept it Of
fered it to the counties of Hartford and
Cecil, jointly and separately, if they
would agree to maintain il as a HIGH
way bridge. The counties, too, turned
down the offer. Unless the railroad
could get some one to accept il and
maintain it as highway bridge il
would have been under the necessity
or removing it, which would have cost
large sum of money. 1t would have
given the bridge to any man or set of
men who could give guarantee that il
would be maintained as highway
bridge.
Finally, in 1910, company COM
posed of the late Murray Vandiver,
the late c. H. Pusey, Michael II.
Fahey, Omar D. Crothers, Thomas n.
Robinson and two or three others took
the bridge and operated it as a high
way toll bridge. For the first two
years or three years the bridge did not
earn enough to pay operating and
maintenance charges; after that it be-
gan to pay small return, and as the
use of the automobile became general
its returns were larger. More and
more. people used the bridge, even
though it was toll bridge, rather
than use the State bridge at Como
wingo, about 10 miles further up the
river. During the war there was
big boom in the receipts of the COM
pany and these receipts continued to
be large after the war. Last year the
gross returns were about Sl0O,0O0
while the operating and maintenance
expenses were $4,000. These ex-
penses have remained fairly constant
ever since the company took over the
bridge.
Ii Is estimated that the gross reve-
nues OF the bridge company have aver
aged about S6O,OOO year for the -
years mas owned the bridge, or
SI2O,OOO Operating expenses and
maintenance during this period have
been in the neighborhood Of S35O,OOO,
which means the owners have collected
in dividends something in the neigh
oorhood OF $4,000. In addition to
this, they have sold the bridge to the
State for SoS5,OOO. Next year the
company expected to earn $4,000
gross.
Some years ago the toll charges the
company made were the subject OF an

Russian Answer
to Allied Note to
Be VERY COnciliatOry

Genoa, May 9-The Reuter- CORE
spondent here is informed by the
Russian delegation that the Russian
reply to the Allied memorandum is
conciliatory and goes to the utmost
lengths in the matter of concession.
1t deals with the principles of the
two economic systems in vogue in
Russia and capitalistic countries and
suggests that matters Of detail should
be settled by a special commission.
The reply proposes the exclusion of
the political features introduced in
the memorandum, and the hope is
expressed that this will present no
difficulty, as the Russians have tried
to build a bridge between the two
social and economic systems.
The Russian delegates, the reply
adds. are animated by the utmost de-
sire to prevent rupture of the negoti-
ations and by the wish to arrive at a
common understanding so far as pos
sible, and leave it to evolution and
common sense to bring about rap
proachment in the course of time.
With respect to Clause Seven, the
Russians hold that the world will
have to accustom itself to the fact of
the existence in Europe of a state
whose life is based essentially on a
system of state property. In Rus
STA, they argue, two conceptions of
life Observation-Disclosures and collec-
tivist-and these social and economic
tendencies both have their own
sphere. This goes to prove that the
dual system can exist in ihternation-
al relations also and still leave plenty
of room for private enterprise.

Dissolution Order
American Sugar
Case 12 Years Old

New York, May 9.-Federal Judges
Rogers, Hough and Manton today filed
a dissolution order against the Ameri.
can Sugar Refining Co. and other cor
porate and individual defendants in
the governments Sherman lawsuit be-
gun IL years ago.
During the 12-year wait caused in
large part by decision to await rul.
ings of the United States supreme
court in the Steel and Harvester trust
cases. the defendant corporations In
the sugar trust case have abandoned
their combination and conspiracy tC
restrain trade and commerce, and to
monopolize the business of manufac.
turing and dealing in refined sugar,
said the decree.
The judges, sitting as an expeditinG
court, held, however, that at the time
testimony in the case was heard
enough of the allegations in the gov.
eminent petition were proved to en-
title it to dissolution order.
The companies named in the petit
ton were the American Sugar Re-
filming Company, the National Sugar
Refining Company of New Jersey, the
Great Western Sugar Company OF
Chicago and the Michigan Sugar
Company of Detroit.
1t was held by the court that evil
dence taken in 1910 when the petit
ton of dissolution was asked by the
government, showed that at that time
the American Sugar Refining Com
pany owned voting control in all OF
the companies named Since then
however, the parent concern. volan-
tarily, has given UP that control and
now owns no more than small mi
norities and has no membership on
the dictatorship of the companies
The decree signed today was with
the consent of the sugar companies
attorneys. 1t was brought to the
federal court here as an eXpeditine
measure, and confirmed the volun-
tary dissolution agreement reached
after conference with the scvernmen,
