Tomorrow will be a day of thanks giving and praise, and the people of this state and this great nation, have abun dant reason to be thankful for tho c ause to feel grateful on this sacred day.

The light running Howe at Robert Sherwood's only $ 25.00. At the district court" Friday the authorities found the jury short, and the deputy sheriff started out in search of victims. The door opposite Rockwood hall was opened by the deputy, and the first man he met was a reporter. He in vited him to the hallway, and upon the reporter's arrival there, the door of the court room was opened and he was hus tled inside, without any ceremony, and the door barred on him. A highway robber was on trial at the time and a witness who was on the stand was questioned as foil w: " Did you read the arti les ii t i; n -wspapers concerning the roM. iy?" Witness "Yes." Did you form any reliable opin ion from what y u read?" Witness, "No, the papers were not reliable during the campaign." The reporter looked on that speech as a providential act, knowing that they would not accept an unreliable man to act as juryman. The thought that he would not be obliged to listen to the parley of lawyers for a whole day and then be locked .in a loom for three nights without any nourishment, as a penalty, was as go d is a feast. He then persued his wor e with a light heart. Why go to gocery and dry goods stores for arcticts when you can get th in for Njc at Sherwood's? The light running Howe at Sherwoo l's only !?.). 00.

On the contrary, it would seem to be the duty of all voters to co-operate earnestly m the ad vancement of measures undertaken in their behalf, and to lend their support to great newspapers which are doing original and ag gressive work to promote their welfare. It is conceded by tUe entire country, that the New York Tkieune has initiated a great variety of the valuable i nd mice ssful discus sions of the past year. Its labor for the fann ers (not yet half finished) has been aggressive and tftective.
