This is one of the first In Myrtle Point. Thursday, November 26th. The President has issued the an nual Thanksgiving proclamation, setting apart Thursday, November 26, as “ a day of thanksgiving and prayer. ” “ Year by year,” declares the pro clamation, “ this Nation grows in strength and worldly power. Dur ing the century and a quarter that has elapsed since our entry into the circle of independent people we have grown and prospered in ma terial things tc a degree never known before and not now known in any other country. The 13 col onies which straggled along the seacoast of the Atlantic and were hemmed in but a few miles west of tidewater by the Indian-haunted wilderness have been transformed into the mightiest P.epublic which the world has ever seen. Its do mains stretch across the continent from one to the other of the great est oceans and it exercises dominion alike in the Artie and the tropic realms. The growth in wealth and population has surpassed even the growth in territory. Nowhere else in the world is the average of indi vidual comfort and material well being as high as in our fortunate land. “ B’or the very reason that in ma terial wellbeing we have thus a- bounded, we owe to the Almighty to show equal progress in moral and spritual things. With a Nation, as with the individuals who make up a nation, material wellbeing is an in dispensable foundation. But the foundation avails nothing by itself. That life is wasted and worse than wasted which is spent in piling heap on heap, those things which mini ster merely to the pleasure of the body and to the power that rests only on wealth. “ Upon material wellbeing as a foundation must be raised the struc ture of the lofty life of the spirit, if this nation is properly to fulfill its great mission all we so ardently hope and desire. T h etb iD g s of the body are good; the things of the mind are better, but best of all the things of the soul, for in the Nation, as in the individual, in the long run it is character that counts. “ Let us. therefore, as a people, set our faces resolutely against evil and with broad charity, with friend liness and good-will toward all men, hut with unflinching determination to smite down wrong, strive with all the strength that is given us for righteousness in public and in priv ate life.” 4 V » l r l i e « l I ’ l l I n ll V . ’ i i r s E.

There is in the treasury a cash balance of $G58.320.15, of which $214,887.98 is in the general fund an amount sufficient to pay state expenses until next March when the taxes for 1909 will be paid. The report shows that two years ago the balance in the general fund, applicable to payment of current ex penses of the state government and maintenance of state institutions was $212,512.03; there was received dur ing the two years $2,592,893.40 and disbursed $ 2,560,507.45, leaving the present cash balance in that fund $214,897.98. State Treasurer Steel makes a num ber of recommendations to theLegis- lature among them these: That the inheritance tax be made applicable to the excess of $2000 on all collater al inheritances and on bequests and devices exceeding $500 to persons not related to the donor that the d e pository law be made applicable to the school that counties be required to pay the maintenance charge for care of insane. In the first instance the counties collecting from the per sons ordered to pay the charge: that such special funds as the pure food fund, the veterinary fund, the board of examiners’ fund, etc be turned in to the general fund and all the claims now paid out of these funds be paid out of the general fund; that provision be made for inspection of weights and measures so that the law regarding the same may be en forced. Now that the regular election are out of the way, railroad men are or ganizing for a vigorous campaign to force an advance of freight rates. Their argument is that, unless this be done, wages will have to be re duced. It is said they stand ready to discharge thousand of employes to make a bad situation worse if the public refuses to countenance their extravagant demand for higher rates Responsible railroad mana gers are acting like a lot of cry babies. They are pretending that they have been abused more than any other class of business men, when everybody knows perfectly well that their c'aim is absurd. Railroads are not doing so much business as in the past, but that is not for the reason that they have been abused, but because there has been a panic, and it might also be said that it cannot cause one. either, for panics are a natural develop ment of growth. They are to the business world what growing pains are to children. The panic which has caused all the suffering will be over in a year, and business is al ready on the move. The really im portant railrond roeD know this per fectly well, but under cover of a pretended belief that something must be done to save the railroads, they are attempting to fasten on the public a schedule of rates that will justify the enormous prices to which railroad securities have been mani pulated.— Ex. “ For filteen years I have watched ihe working o f Bucklen’s Arnica Salve; and it has never failed 10 cure any sore, boil, ulcer or burn to which it was applied.
