JULY 16 T.USKtiUlVlJfU AM) PBAYBB ItUBOiroWi Jul) Suggested by President McKlulsy. 71,. full text of President Mc vjullf! proclamation to tbeAmer ican public, which was issued by (,;, at 11:40 o'clock on tho night U I,, 6tfa inst, leas f ill'. its: To the people of the Unitid gute of Atnori Ml ' At this time, when to tho yet f. remembrance of the unpre adentod success which a tended ik operations of tho United States a tho bay of Manila 00 tho first day of May last, aro added the tidings of tlu no less glorious icliic venient8 of the naval and mili ary arms of our beloved country at jJiiiiiago do Cuba, it is lilting that we fhould pause and, staying the feeling of exultation that too naturally attends great deeds wrugbt by our oiuntrytn n in our country V muse, should reverently lnv !.ef're '.lie throne of divine mm end give devout pniseto God. who boldeth the nations in the hollow of his hand and workcth Upon them the marvels of hi higl) will) and who his thus fur you ihaafod to us the light of his age and led our brave soldiers and lumen lo victory. "I, therefore, uk the people of llr I'nitid States, on next usr-era pfng for divine worship in their rtH.ectivo places of rnaeting, to offer Lhankegiving to Almighty God, wh , in his inheritable way, is now lending our iiosls upon the waters to unscathrd triumph; now guiuing them in u cirango land though the dread ihtdowi ot death to success, even though at a fearful cost; now bearing them without accident or loss to far distant climes, has watched over our cause and brought nearer the success of the right and the attainment of just and honorable peace. "With the nation's thanks let there be mingled the nation's pnyors that our gallant son? may be shielded from harm alike on the battle-fields and in tho clash of tleets, and be spared the scourge of suffering and disetBe while ihey are thriving to uphold their country's honor; and withal, lot tho nation's heart be stilled with holy awe at tho thought of the noble men who have perished as heroes die, and be filled with coin passiouate sympathy tor all those who suffer bereavement or endure sickness, wounds and bonds by reason of the awful struggle. And above all, let us pray with intense fervor that he, tho dispenser ot all good, may speedily remove from us the untold afllictions of war and bring to our dear land the blessings of restored peace, and to all the domain now rivaged by the cruel strife, the priceless boon of security and tranquility. "William MoKnaiY, "Hxecutive mansion, Washing ton, July G, 1898." "OBVIOUS REASONS." Oregoniau: "The war with Spain, and the necessity of su iporting our forces in the Philippine islands, have made it impossible to resist the logic of annexation. Tho islands will bo placed by congress under the usual territorial govern ment, and so should rem uu. No doubt political adventures will ad vocate the erection of a state gov ernment in them; but this, for obvious reasons, will be resisted and opposed by the great bodv of the people of the United Stales," The "obvious reasons" referred to by tho Oregonian consist of the undesirable nature of tho popula tion, making it probable that they are hardly fit for self governmen:. The census of 1S06 gives the popu lation of tho Sandwich Islands! at 109.020. Of these the whil native and foreign bloods number less than 20,000. Congress will not take any chances by allowing the mongred Kanakas, composed of mixed bloods of natives and wiiites, j and Japanese, and Chinese to j obtain political mastery of tht Islands. Tlin nnuu.,., J .t. - -1 " . m i- ui LLiU outh with infer or raco domina tion was not a pleBJUt MM, and is not likely W be repeated by the present i-icr ition. The leson is too fresh in the minds of the mid dle aged and older citizens. THI SPANISH PKIM8. Tho Sau Francisco Argouaut re port a rich reward for a diligent perusal of tho Madrid newspaper press. In one oftbe Spanish people's chief sources of news and informa tion there was a rare biographical sketch ol Lieut Col, tho Hon Theo dore Ro .sevelt " iur Teddy." 'The commander-in-chief of the American army," says the Madrid editor, "is ono Ted Rooseyell, formerly New York .oliee- mm. He was born near Harlem, in Holland, and emigrated to America when young. He was educated at Harvard a-ademy, a commercial school, ibore being no univer-ities or colleges in America. Hu tias as a bodyguard a regiment that is fil'ingly called 'rough rioters.' " A 8EJATOR USED SA I IKK. A satirical senator fr m New England evolved the following lines reoently after reading a list of army nominations, in which the names of sons of many distinguished Ire? appeared, They have since attained a wi le private circulation ' Sons of great men all rt-rulnd us We may make our lives aublirue, And, with papa's 'push' liehlud us, We eon get there every time." A city was emptied ot its inhab itantH in Cuba the other morning. Imagine lo.OOO people leaving San thgo between the hours of b and 8 ' dneeday morning July G, under a Hag of truce, carrying whatever thoy could In their arms as no horses wero allowed to leave the city, it must have been a raotly ,'rowd of all ags and conditions that went out of their homes, without preparation, to throw themselves on the mercy of a country already stripped and devastated by war. Hut, the city was threatened with bombardment and there was no alternative but to leave. Dr Mary Walker's pension is to bo increased from $12 to $20 per month in consideration of lur ad vanced age. Those to whom Dr Walker is a by-word because of her ludicrous eccentricities do noi pause to recollect that she was both sur geon and nurse during the civil war, and did good service on field and in hospital. A Sedalia, Mo, editor, after re viewing the business men and loaf ers of his city, says the most successful business men were whip ped freely when they were young, while 27 of the street loafers inter viewed were mammaB'darlmgs when they were little and the other three were raised by their grandmothers. Silver 59i. Wheat 59 to 60. An ounce of silver will bushel ot wheat. buy a A bushel of wheat will buy an ounce of silver. Wheat aud silver keep together while gold soars. And all indebt ed neie muet be paid in gold with cheap wheat. By refusing to issue legal tsnder notes instead of bonds the mnjority of congress has declared that bank currency is better than government currency, and the only reason they advance is bank currency boars interest, whereas legal tonder notes cost nothing. What do the peoplo say? President McKinloy will take no chances of interference by Congress with his designs regarding the Hawaiian islands. Appointments of commissioners who will govern the islands were held lack pending the adjournment of that body. The London Times advises this country not to be too hard on Spain.
