fchut np shop tomorrow, go to church
eat a good dinner, and at all times of the
day be thankful you are living under the
most enlightened government on the
globe. Americans have more causes for
thankegiving than the people ot any
other country, but it is doubtful if at all
times the debt of gratefulness is remem
bered. With the cares of business and
the annoyances and perplexities that
even those who are out of the whirl of
trade and the strain of professional pur
suits feel, the significance of Thankegiv
ing is apt to be overlooked. " The day is
one of all others peculiar to American
life. Its inception is noticed in the
early days of the New England settle
ment when the hardy Pilgrims paused
long enough from their labor of tilling
the soil and fighting Indians to return
thanks for the blessing of religious lib
erty, something which they could never
enioy under the bigoted government of
England. From the beginning of its
observance in the seventeenth century
Thanksgiving has always been a popular
festival in the United States. During
the revolutionary war a day was set
apart upon which thanks were given for
the assistance of the Almighty in the
conflict that raged with England.
In the early part of the present century
the day was not sq universally observed
as now, though the people of the New
England states still preserved the
Thanksgiving custom of their forefathers.
President Lincoln in 1863 gave a new
impulse to Thanksgiving day by the
issuance of a proclamation commanding
the American people to show their grati
tude for the success that attended the
Union cause. From that day to this
Thanksgiving has become a recognized
institution. In outward form at least
the American people render to the
Creator thanks for his munificence
The tendencies of the day are all for
good and the people of this great com
monwealth cannot be too loyal in its
observance. This nation has been
blessed above all other peoples. It has
been led through the dark clouds of war
and emerged again into sunlight ; it has
been torn by internal dissension and the
wounds have been healed. Through the
crimes that mark all governments our re
public has passed safely, and now at the
close of the greatest century that the
'world has ever seen, this nation stands
the incomparable. The future will be
just what we make it. All the possibil
ties are within our reach, and the great
ness of today will be continued so long
as the American people hold steadfast
to the principles for which the pilgrim
fathers sought the bleak New England
shores, and for which Washington,
Franklin, John Quincy Adams and
Abraham Lincoln struggled, both" by
word and action. Along with Inde
pendence day let the Thanksgiving fes
tival be one never neglected by the
American people.
Eugene Register: Salem, with the
enterprise characteristic of the town,
will probably soon re-build the woolen
mill. It is to be hoped, at least, they
will not be so long in re-building it as
Eugene was in re-building her flouring
mill. The los was a heavy one to the
Willamette valley, as there are few
enough manufactories in Western Ore
gon. ;
Walla Walla Statesman : From pres
ent indications the fruit-growers' con
vention, which 19 to meet in this city on
December 10th, will be a gratifying suc
cess. A large attendance is promised
from many points in Washington, Ore
gon and Idaho. Our eilizens should
manifest their interest in the enterprise
by giving the delegates a hospitable
welcome, and attending the convention
in large numbers.
Pnyallup Commerce : Betrospecting
the vear and its results, there are sug
gestions that the barns are filled to fat
ness with golden grain, ana tne nope
and promise of better things are potent.
There are those who sorrow, because
from the beginning the laughter of the
joyful has' rung out amid the cry of
hearts made desolate. At tnis season
of the vear the once green leaves are
sered, fallen upon the ground, betrodden
under foot of man ; butane naked trees ,
through which the chilly blast of the
west wind now moans, shall, with the
warming days of spring,' put on new
beauty and treshneBS. So the days that
are to give assurance of peace to spirits
that may be troubled. The night comes,
but the glad sun is on its course, and its
rays will spread life and light upon all

The annual meeting of the New York
State Bankers' Association was held in
New York last week, and several papers
were read and discussed. Ellis H. Rob
erts, ex-deputy United States treasurer,
said, among other things:. "There is
just now considerable discussion as to
what congress will do about the finan
cial question. If one could learn the
earnest demands of the bankers of this
state and country, it would quickly in
, dicate along what lines congressional
enactment should proceed. I am afraid
that, the bankers are not ready ti for
mulate their demands. There certainly
seems to be a lack of unanimity of sen
timent. ' It is regrettable that no scheme
has been broached which would com
mand the support .of the majority of the
bankers. It is the duty of every banker
to create a sentiment as to financial leg
islation which will finally lift the coun
try's finances from the present level."
effort is being made to reclaim
some of the arid lands between Celilo
and Umatilla. A large tract of ' fine
land has been opened op by the Bailey
Ditch Company, which has about nine
miles of ditch completed, and water
covering about 2000 or 3000 acres. They
will rent these tracts to persons who
wish them, and furnish plenty of water
for one half of the produce raised. The
lands are on the Columbia river, a few
miles above Coyote station, and the past
season thecompany has cultivated about
100 acres, and has raised some of the
finest garden truck that ever, grew in
this section of- the country ; and for
fruit-raisers the climate and soil cannot
be excelled. Transportation and freight
rates to all desirable points for market
aro reasonable and fair. Can ship to
the Sound, over the Northern, or into
Montana over the Great Northern, or
Spokane over the O. R. & N.
The outcome of the enterprise will be
watched with a great deal of .interest,

The business men of Portland are
complaining that the low rates to Sun
Francisco are injuring their trade. Idle
people in San Francisco are coming to
Portland seeking employment, and Port
land people are going to San Francisco
to buy Christmas presents. San Fran
cisco has the best of the fight, and it
looks as if the whole thing may be but a
scheme on that city's part to help out
the holiday trade.
