Tho proclamation said the country us u whole had been ' protected against pestilence and disaster ami had been directed in the way of national pros- pcrity. It follows; "i!y the president of the Unit-j cd ritates. j "A proclamation. "The season again approaches ; when it has been tho custom i tor generations to set apart a ! day of Thanksgiving for thii j blessings which the 4giver of all i good and perfect gifts has be- , stowed upon us during the year. : It is most becoming that we should do this fur the goodness; and mercy of Cod which has ' followed us through the year deserve our grateful rccugn.tion i and acknowledgment. ' "Through his divine favor and peace and tranquility have reign- ; cd throughout tho laud. He has; protected our country as a whol-? ; against pestiJenco and disaster ; and has directed us in the way ' of national prosperity. Our fields, have been abundantly productive; our industries have flourished: uur commerce has increased; ; wages have been lucrative and ontentnient has followed the tin-' disturbed pursuit of honest toil, i "As we have prospered in ina- i terlal things, su have we also' grown and expanded In things j spiritual.

Calvin Coolidge. president of the Culled States,', do hereby set apart Thursday. ; inc z'sin uay ot Novemher ncxi as u day of general thanksgiv- ( ing a nil prayer, and recommend 1 that on that day the people shall cease from their dally work and lu their homes and in their-accustomed places of worship de voutly give thanks to tho Al mighty for the many and groat have received, and Republican Central Committee and the Report o Tlii! IiYimiM'"-"" Central C'oniiiii I !-. wi ii'llo.l. claims that the partiat report in which the jiritnil jurors askctl Hie questions of ,Inl? Thomas, is ti purely political document; that the facts do not discredit Jnlc Thomas. These statements are frnivp. The i-'nuKl jury was iin earnest, conscientious hody. It asked the qw-stioiis of Oudsre Thomas in pood faith. The law (rave it the right to ask the cuextions. The law required Judire Thomas to answer them. (Joint faith upon the part of the judj;e required liiiu to answer them. I!e submitted the questions to numerous people during Hie week that he carried them about in his pocket. "We believe he showed them to some of the parties who mipht have been con cerned with the answers to the questions. AVe know that he showed them to lawyers who advised him to answer them, tie handed them back toMhe grand jury one-week after having received them, without ever having answered any of them, lie stated that be had been advised that the jurors had not voted upon them. lie warned the jurors that a vote was required, though the law did" not require it. He plainly showed his disfavor to the grand jurors for having asked the questions. He warned the grand jury that they would lie liable personally in damages on any such matter where indictments were not returned. Ve think the Republican Central Committee will later wake up to the fact that it has made a mistake in charging that this was a political document and in treating the matter so lightly. It will find that the public wants a judge who will answer questions that will affect one person, just as quickly as lie will answer questions which might affect an other. That the people will elect a judge who is unfettered and who is not so hound to cliques or rings as to be embarrassed in the performance of a plain duty. ISKTTER 0OVKRXMENT LKAGl'K.
