THE DAY WE CELEBRATE
OLD AS HISTORY ITSELF
Thanksgiving day, as usually observ
ed in the United States, is regarded as
peculiarly an American institution, in
augurated by the Pilgrim Father*. But
•lays of thanksgiving for special mer

nations for centuries.
vVe make it distinctively a day of
family gatherings. But even aa such
it is by no menus new with us.

of which there Js any record is found
In-Deuteronomy, the 16th chapter:
''Thou slislt observe the feast of tab-
Srnocles, seven days offer that thou
sat fathered In thy corn and vine."
They ifere further commanded to "re
joice In th? ffist' with the familiar
list of mjfc«sjfTa|ft, maid-servant and
JjevitJ, stronger attd fatherless, widow
And orphan. ,
So even the family reunion feature,
of which we moke so much and claim
as peculiar to ourselves, is not new
with us.
The ancient Greeks also held a feast,
Closely resembling that of the .Tews. It

of the cornfields nnd harvest.

Of copper or of railroad stock

In every Wallst flurry.

To be again elected.
That I am not the richest, quite,
Whose oil outshines the heaven's light
Or greases earthly axes.
Indeed I'm glad I do not need
To dodge so many taxes.

And not tho hapless president,
Who now is sorely smitten.

Of jobbery and Bchwobcry,

Nor yet in cotmnon robbery.

THANKSGIVING DAY
WALKING MATCHES
UAf.TIMOUB, Md.. Nov. 26.—A
time honored custom on Thanksgiving
day here are walking matches to Wash
ington, lb C, aud to Wilmington, Del.,
to both of which cities there arc the
finest turnpikes in the United Slates
The Baltimore-Washington record,
as well as the Maryland long-distance
record, is held by Walter Waid, ISM
llollint street, who walked from here
to the capital city, a distance of 48
miles, in seven hours and 19 minutes,
In INM. He has figured in 31 long
distance walking matches and has never
lost. His record to Wilmington, which
is TO miles from Baltimore, is ir> hours
and seven minutes.
Labor Is Thankful.
Labor, especially organized labor, has
, much to feel thankful for. The past
I year has recorded much improvement
iv Ihe moral, mental and the intellect
ual advancement of the toilers. Aud
while they yet have many wrongs to
right, many grievances to correct, while
they have ntaoy hopes aud aspiration*
' unrealized. Still their conditions are
better now and the prospect of future
improvement i* more bright than ever
! before in our history.

feast days became days of recreation,
drinking and roystering.
Naturally, the English Puritans look
ed with disapproval on all such degen
erating customs. Indeed, this was a
large part of their grievance, when
those who bad pot supplied material
for the block or Queen Mary's bon
fires aeoided to quit the country.
At this time England was observing
more than 100 feast flays in the year.
Even Christmas was brought into dis
repute by the revelry to* which the
day was given up. At the time of
the Reformation the CsJvinists reject
ed the celebration of Christmas abso
lutely and the clergy of Scotland tried
to throw 1 cohtempt dn the day.
So the holy-days appointed by the
English church became unsavofy to
Puritan nostrils and their publio cele
bration w«s strictly forbidden by the
lows of New England. The hatred ot
"wanton Bacchanalian Christmases,"
described by Colton as a time of "rev
eling, dicing, carding, masking and
mumming, consumed in dompotations,
in interludes, in excess of wine, in
mad mirth," wss but a reaction against
the excesses to which festivals had
been carried
by the fact that Harry Rosenhnupt
and other Sanders boomers have been
quietly over on the Sound during the
past few days working Up a "game"
that will please the talent. Said a
prominent local republican today:
"Put It In your hat that Ed Sunders
Is going to be a winner In this fight.
Charlie Hopkins, although his name
has been put up as a possibility for
governor, is going to see to it with
the other boys that appreciation will
tie shown for the manly way in which
Sanders tood the throw-down In the
mayoralty nomination in this elty
last spring. At that time certain
promises were mnde to Sanders and
those promises are to be kept."
A farce comedy element was also
Introduced Into the republican ranks
this week when it became whispered
about that Colonel William Ridpath
hud been further boosting his private
and Individual campaign for govern
or by trying to make truce with
Stevenson, the railroad lobbyist.
Ward is n brass founder tor the B.
X O. railroad and takes his training

A peculiar feature about the Thanks
giving walking matches here is the
fact that the sport draws men from ill
walk- of life. On the road to Washing
ton on the holiday one may meet me
chanics, merchants and even bankers,
some of them "hoofing It" for wager*
made in their respective clubs, hut
most of them out simply for the fun
and exercise they can get out of the
trip. Moreover, it would be an almost
unprecedented Thanksgiving if a female
or two were not seen tramping along
beside her brother or some other girl's
brother.

SPOKANE, WASHINGTON, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 26, 1903.
The Pilgrims were so anxious to
"beat down every sprout of Episoo
pacic" that they frowned down any
attempt at celebrating a holiday that
had been countenanced by the Church
of England. So we have the account
of that first famous Christrflas, tvhen
they all went ashore from the Way
flower, "some to saw, sotoe to vine,
and some to carry, so no man rested
all that day."
And out of the disgust with Christ
mas was born the Pilgrim Thanksgiv
ing. In ihe first Thanksgiving cele
bration at Plymouth the domestic hos
pitality which has since marked the
day was displayed by inviting in Chief
Massasoit and some 90 of his men,
whom the Pilgrims entertained and
feasted. The turkey, which has ever
Since remained as the center of this
feast, was then installed in his distin
guished place, for the simple reason
that, as Morton says: "Turkeys there
are which divers times :'n greet flocks
have sallied by our doores: and then
a gunne salutes them with such a
courtesie ss mskes them take a turne
in the cookc-room. They duunce by
the doore so well!"
Let Us Give
Thanks.
If all Ihe whisky barrels In
Spokane were knocked in the
head and the stuff fun Into the
sewer, mathematics couldn't
reckon the Infinite gain.
Would you argue that the
Northern Pacific Railway com
pany is a fool? Yet the North
ern Pacific has ordered the In
stant dismissal of any truth*
man who is known to drink
whisky.
Any man who drinks whisky
and steps into an engine cab
is guilty of v crime, and should
be .debarred from carrying on
hip business. The whisky un
stcadles bis nerves, befogs bis
brain and puts him in the way
of becoming insane. The North
ern Pacific road Is absolutely
within its rights in issuing tho
nntl-drlnk order. And the more
vigorously It Is enforced, the
better for Spokane. On east
ern divisions, where the order
has been tested, loss of life
has decreased at least 16 per
cent.
The whisky evil Is a great
load on the Spokane taxpayer.
It makes more and more police
constantly necessary, fills our
alms houses, asylums and mad
houses, imposes an enormous
burden of taxation on rich and
poor alike.
The Spokane tax rate—think
of It to your disgust!—ls little
short of $4 per JlflOO assess
ment, and assessments are sup
posed to be 70 per cent of the
actual value. How much of
this is owing to the defiant rule
of the local whisky ring and
tlie lower Howard street po
lltlcan gung? The tax rate tn
Log Angeles, a city four times
the size of Spokane. Is only
II.IS per $1000; Detroit, near
ly l ight times the size. 11.12 —
and so on. Bpokane will wake
up some day to lind that the
lower Howard street gang does
no good.
