THANKSGIVING PROCLAMATION.
Got. Russell Sets Apart Nov. 30tli for
the State as Well as the National Ob
scrvance.
State of North Carolina,
Executive Department,
Raleigh, N. C, Nov. 3, 1899.
Whereas, the people of this
republic have long been accus
tomed to set apart one day in
each year as a day for public
thanksgiving and rejoicing for
the blessings of liberty and ihe
gracious care of divine provi
dence. ... .
And, whereas. the year
through which we have just
passed has been one character;.
ized by great industrial and civic
prosperity,
And, whereas, it is fitting and
proper that the people should
J 1 .1
turn asiae irom tneir usual em
ployments and render thanks
giving and praise to All Mighty
God for his manifold blessing to
them,
Now, therefore, I, Daniel L
Russell, governor of the com
monwealth of North Carolina, do
issue this my proclamation, ap
pointing and setting apart Thurs
day the 30tbfclay of November,
1899, as a daybf public and gen
eral thanksgiving, and recom
mend to all our people that they
lay aside the cares of their secu
lar employments and assemble
in their respective places of
public worship to render thanks
giving and praise to God for the
blessings of the past and to im
plore a continuation of his mer
cies to us as a people.
, I recommend that at the sev
eral services held upon this day
thus set apart, our people en
deavor to remember their less
fortunate fellow citizens who are
dependent for the comforts of
life upon the benefactions of
public and private charity, by
contributing of their means for
the assistance of these uifortu-
nates.
Done at our city of Raleigh,
this 3r day of November, in the
year of our Lord one thousand
eight hundred and ninety-nine,
and in the one hundred and
twenty-fourth year of our Ameri
can Independence,
By the governor.
Daniel L Russell.
Baylus Cade, Private Secretary.

MAY THE END COME SOON.
Since England is to Win in South Africa
Let nsllone That the Conflict Will
Soon Be Over,
From "The Progress of the
"World," in the American
Monthly Review of Review for
s November.
1 'Since the English will now"
surely conquer the Transvaal
and also the Orange Free State
which as an ally,- has thrown
in its lot with the other republic
it is to be hoped that the inevit
able outcome may not be greatly
delayed. The more quickly the
Transvaal can be brought to sub
mission, the less innocent blood
will be shed, and th less the
world at large will be disturbed
by this hideous crime against
women and children and the hap
piness of thousands of homes a
crime of which the nolitical
leaders on both sides are guilty.
- ' - . X
If the Boers, the South African
descendants of the original Dutch
emigrants, had been progressive
.like the descendants of .the Eng
lish colonies of North America,
they might have kept control of
their country, and brought about
a great independent South Afri
can republic extending ' from
Cape Town far to the northward
and from one ocean to the other.
But the v, have not proved equal
to tne opportunity, and the Eng
lish have long since made them
selvesnot in word alone, but
in fact the paramount power in
that part of the African conti
n ent. Cape Colony, although un
der British, sovereignty, is a free
and a self -governing republic, in
1 l "f . . A .
a iar more satistactory sense
than is the Transvaal under the
rule of Paul Kruger, who has
held the mastery now for almost
twenty years, and who, if not
quite as absolutely as a czar, is
about as potent in affairs as a
kaiser. , When in the early fu
ture me rransvaai nas oeen an
nexed to the British empire
there will probably come -about
almost at once a more modern
and complete government based
on the will of the majority than
has ever been there before
Only of course, it will be a ma
jority of .the present, rather than
of the original, inhabitants; and
that will mean a transfer of pre
dominant majority from the
Dutch-speaking to the ; English'
speaking race.

Corporation Commission in Error.
The contest between the rail
roads and the Corporation Com
mission m Judge Simonton's
court resulted in a decision, in
favor . of the railroads. The
Judge holds that the legislature
either intentionally , or acci
dentally failed to empower the
commission to assess property
ocivt5 in tne cases wnere returns
had not been made. The in-
crease of the taxation therefore
attempted by the commission is
prevented and the former assess
ment stands.
