?
The President Calls Upon All lh#
People to Return Thanks for the
Bounty of the Year.
Washington, Special. ? President
Roosevelt has Issued his proclamation
designating Thursday, November 27,/
as a day of thanksgiving. The procla-\
1 mation Is as follows: '
"Aceordijjjs to tbs yearly custom of
our people, it falls upon the President
st this season to appoint a day of fes
tivity and thanksgiving to God. Over a
century and a quarter has passed since
this country took Its place among the
natlofts of the earth, and during that
tkae we have had, on the Whole, more
to be thankful for than has fallen to
the lot of any other people. Generation
? after generation has grown to man
hood and passed away. Each has had
to bear its peculUr burden, each to
face its specioj crisis, ajyl each lias
known years of grim trlaT, when the
country wph menaced by malicc domes
tic or foreigQ levy, when the hand of
the Lord was heavy upon It in drouth
or pestilence, when in bodily distress
and anguish of soul It paid the penalty
of folly and a froward heart.
"Nevertheless, decade by decade we
havo struggled onward and upward;
we now abundantly enjoy material *
wellbeing, and under the favor of the
Most High wo are striving earnestly to
achieve moral and spiritual uplifting.
The year that hae iust closed had been I
ono of peace and of overflowing plenty.
For this w.e render heartfelt and, sol
emn thanks to the Giver of Good/f and
we seek to praise Him not by /jwords
only, but by dGeds, by the w$y in
which we do our duty to ourselves and
to our fellow men. 8
"Now therefore, I, Theodore! Roose
velt, President of the United Stmtes, do
hereby designate as a day oflgeneral
thanksgiving, Thursday, the 27tn of the
coming November, and do recommend
that throughout the land thqr people
cease from their ordinary occupations
and in their several hOmes and places
' of worship render tbankH unto Al
mighty God for tbo manifold blessings
of the past year."

tnm of Secretary Hay to Washington*
the Colombian minister may resume
negotiations for a canal treaty which"
have been interrupted by complica
tions arising out of the situation on j
-thn inthmnw. Tho legation has been
expecting special dispatches . from
Bogota containing special instructions
for Mr. Conchas on some of theTddlF .
cat# points. Out the arrival of th&?e;|
need not necessarily be awaited, it waa
indicated at the legation, as the ad
vIccr which have recently ? been r*r
cclved by tho minister have forecaslpAL
that tho situation has been clearing
sh to 'permit of a resumption of jnjj
gotiations. The belief o i some ofc^VV*?
officials here Is that if tho mat*-- gy,f
expedited, a treaty for tho c/y

contracting parties within, V
