Full Text of the President's Thanks
giving Proclamation Puyallup
Indian Reservation.
It was expected that the vexed ques
tions regnrding tho Puyallup Indian
reservation at Tacoma would be settled
by tho commission which was sent out
there by an act of the last Congress, but
it seems mat this commission has not
done what they were expected to do,
nun iiiu inif&uijii i mane is as iar irom
settlement as before. The Indians have
bargained away ponio of thoir most val
uablo lands. Their lands nro needed
for tho development ofTncoma as a citv.
aim tney aro useless to the Indians, ex
cept for what they can get for thorn.
Tho matter of the'individual and tribal
rights of tho Indians was sumosed to be
determined by tho commission, also the
nguis oi ine men who navo bargained
with tho Indians for thoir lands, but
tho commi-sion's report, now with the
fcecretary, is far from satisfactory, and
will bo little or no help in aiding him to
uiaKO a recommendation to Congress.
The Puyallup matter will have to be
fought all over again this winter.
Tho fulltextof tho President's thanks
giving proclamation is as follows: It is
a very glad incident to the marvelous
prosperity which has crowned the year
now drawing to a close that its helpful
and reassuring touch has been felt bv
all tho people. It has been n wide as
our country, and so special that every
home has felt its influence. It is too
great to bo tho work of man's power,
and too particular to be the device of
his mind. To God, the Iteuetlceut ami
allwiso, who makes tho labors of men to
Iw fruitful, redeems their losses by his
grace, and tho measure of his giving is
is as much beyond the thoughts of man
as it is beyond his deserts, the praise
and gratitude of the people of
tins favored nation are duo. Now,
therefore. L Benlamin Harrison. Presi.
dent of tno United States of America,
