Much interoBt was shown In tho Assembly contest In the Second Dis¬ trict of Nassau, as this was the flrst election since the new di.strict was created, and it waB the hope to placo U in tho Republican column, although for years it haa been debatable ter¬ ritory. The Republicans named a ^strong candidate, former District At¬ torney Franklin C. Coles, and he was elected by a rote of almost two to one, bis majority being 1830. ^Although but one of the Supreme Court Justicaa was elected, Nassau Hd her duty by all three candidates, Xiv^n^ (hem pluralities of about 4500. While Mr. Strons waa not the choice of the organisation in tho primaries, the loyalty of the support given him by the loadora in Nassau ia shown by the fact that he received a larger ma¬ jority than did Judge Pavrcett. Tho results of Tuc.sday\s election rcfloctH credit on Chairman Jeremiah Wood and his workers, who did .so much for a Republican victory m Nassau.

SufTrapre has won in New York State and the women will row be al¬ lowed to vote on ;in equality with the men. Th(( sufTrngists have made a stronp (if^ht, covering many yoar.s. With strong opposition to coi)t> with at first they huve seen it gradually weaken until this year, when the tide came their way. Suffrage was bound to win, if not this year at least in the future, as it was one of the liberal mo^'emrnts which become more popu- Jar as tho years po by. One factor which brought support to the cause this year was the manner in which the women have beea supporting the ¦ GSoverament in the food conservation and Red Croas vrork, and it waa ap¬ propriate at this time whon they have been so loyal and unselfish in their assiistance to the nation, they ahould be grante<l the privilego thoy have ao long asked.

(New York. Tribune) Home time within tho nrxt few day.s or wnekH, when the battle along Ihe Tagliamonto bas been decided, ve are going to bave the greatest fri.'fis in the whole of the preaent war. For the last time the Oer¬ mans aro going to seek tn win behind Hie lines tho war that was lost for Ihem when their attack upon Ver¬ dun failed In lOlG. Onco tnore, as last year after the Rumanian disas¬ ter, tbey will endeavor to capitalize I victory In a subsidiary flnld. They will endeavor to tako advantage of Allied drpreH.slon, incident to a con- ii'inporary Orrinan success, to har¬ vest profits and escape the penalties of a war already lost.
A.s far as tho military dociaion In I tils war 1.1 concfirned, Gennany can- lot escape decisive defeat If the war lontinues between armies. Tho ro- soiirccB of Krance,'Of tho United States and of (Ireat Britain in men, in mon- •y and la all else arc as certain to triumph lii the ond as wcro the coin- l)in»;d resourcfs of the Kiiropean na- ;io^l.^ which defeated l/)ui.s XIV and 'lestroycd Napoleon.
AU this the German knows. Hr i<ncw it a year ago wheu he sought nil the morrow of the Rumanian dis- usler, while the world was still shak- >ii l>y the tragedy and Ignorant of Its real as contra.sted with its apparent jnportance, to procure a victorious pc-ice under cover of a succcsj ;wh»('vcd through treachery and m aj iininiporlant field. He know.s it a ilioiisand times better now after tho ion;^ URor.y of local defoatH on tho vest front this year.
"'ho German can win the war now mly If the people behind the Allied inc.s yield *"i his manipulation and ihoir own weariness. The German. run dominate the world now only by liitciguo and by treason, since his chance to control It through hlH ar¬ mies has passed away.
In the crisis which is at hand the adv ioo of America will play the de- lislvr part. If we speak In halting lones; If we fall to demonstrate alike l)y word and deed that wo mean to light this war to a decision with all .f our resources, and all of our strength Is not dedicated to this con¬ test, there will bo an Inconclusive peace, which spella a Oerman vic¬ tory. The Oerman assault upon civ¬ ilization will win a measurable suc¬ cess, wilh con.sequencas which no man caa calculate.
On Ihe other hand, if, on the mor¬ row of other victories; If, after a successful Italian campaign compar- :\',)ie lo the llutnanian operation of 'ast year, Gennany finds her.self .still (11)fronted alike by the armies and -tie peoples of tht? nations she is ii;.,'bting; if the German people dls- ; ov<!r that there is no end to the war hy uny success In subsidiary I'ulds and tliat tho fatal pressure on hi' West continues unaliaicd, thon w (¦ shall S(M! happen in Gennany vliat happened in Napoleon'.s Franco A h( 11 tbe Froni.'h n(iU44(>, while the Lrii^al l:Iinperor*''was still victorious, raried of a war that never ended md tirod of victories wliich never iironi-'ht peace.
If. when the Italian situation has a^ain settled down, the Geriiian peace olTtMisive that will bo launched in every Allied nation is repulsed, the efft'ct will be precisely the same as ;liat of the election of 18tJ4 In our own rounlry. Then, as now, the cneiny relied upon the peoph^ behind the iiies to avert a decision In the flcdd. I'roni the armies of Grant and Sher- m:\n tho .South apiK>aled to the peo¬ pU' of the loyal States. By every lov ice, by every appeal to selffish- iiesH, lo cowardice, to weakness, it sought to procure a betrayal by the civilian population of tie soldier In lilt' Held. The South failed; election ilay, IStit, won the Civil War, and Appomattox was only an Incident.
We have come to the point in the war whicli la comparable with the tiisis of 1864 in our own Civil War. Wo are as near victory in the deld now as was Ihe North at the close of Iraiifs Virginia campaign. The Ger¬ mans said early in the war that the people with tho strongest nerves vsould win. The war has become a Hiiestion of nerves. It has become a yuestlon of endurance. If we will to win now we shall win. We have all the advantages which greater strength and greater numbers and •rreai.r resources can give. The battle las become one between souls and splrlU. The German will may con- »iuer where the Germau army has failed; but If It does not, the end of tha war la la atght .v '

(Thanksgiving, 1917.)
By the President of the United States
nf America.
A PROCLAMATION
It has long befn the honored cus¬ tom of our people to turn in the irnltful Riitiimn of the year In prnlso and thanksgiving tf> Almighty God for Hl.s many bl*^ssings and inorcleH to u.s as a nation. That custom we (an follow now even In the mlast of ihn tragedy of a world shaken by war and Immeasiirahlo disaster, In the midst of sorrow and great peril, liecaiiso even amidst the darkness that has gathered about us we can sPe the great blessings God has be- stowj'd upon us, blessings that are hotter than merf peace of mind and pro.«i>erity of enterprise.
We have been given the opportun¬ ity to servo mankind as wc ouce served ourselves In the great day of our Declaration of Independence hy taking up arms against a tyranny Miat threatened to master and de- l>«.sr nun everywhere and joining Willi other fiec people In demanding 'or all the nations of tho world what wo then demandrd and obtained for .urFclves.
In this dav of the revelation of our hity not only to defend our rights ari a ration, hut to defend also the lights of free men throughout the vorlrl. theio lias b(H;n vouchsafed us in full and inspiring' measure the res- ( lutinn and spii-lt of united action. Wc havo been brought to one mind Iiui p'lipose. A new vigor of com¬ mon counsel and common action has boeti r(>\caled In ns.
Wo should esp(daily thank God that In HUiii fiii-cutnstanccs, in the ¦¦¦ill'l (iT tti(> !:'r(^;it(>''l I'lilovpT-it-n 1)10
>(plrlt9 of men have entered up¬ on, we have, If we but observe a icaaonable and practicable economy, .ibtindance with which to supply the needs of those asiioclated with us as well as nur nwn. A new light shines .ihoiit us. The great dntles of a new day awaken a new and greater na- Iional spirit in us. We shall never Of»ain be divided or wonder what stuff we are made of.
And while we render thanks for these thing.? lot us pray Almighty God that In all hinnblenoss of spirit we may look always to Ulm for guid¬ ance; that we may he kept constant in the spirit and purpose of service that by His grace our minds may be (lirertcd and our hands strengtliened, and that In his good time liberty and .security and peace and the comrad- shlp of a common justice may be vouchsafed all the nations of the (arth.
Wherefore, I, Woodrow Wilson, rresident of the United Stales of America, do hereby designate Thurs¬ day, the twenty-ninth day of Novem¬ ber next, as a day of thanksgiving ,Tiid prayer, and Invite the people throughout the land to cease upon that day from their ordinary occupa- tion.s and in their several home;^ and jilacf^s of worship to render thanks t») God, the Great Ruler of nations.
In witness whereof, I have here¬ unto set my hand and caused the seal of the United States to be af- llxcd.
Done In the District of C^olumbla, this 7lh day of Novemher, in the year of onr T.oia, ono thou.sand nine hun- (lierl and h^ventecn, and of the In¬ dependence of the United States of America the one hundred and forty- .s(;cond.

T given much nor suffered much ns yet; we enter the war as the final resorvi! of civilization. It Is for us now to repulKC the final German «t- lack, the tilliinatc peaco offensive. Jf spring finds British, French and 'incrlcau armies in the field ready to advance and tho hritish, French and American peoples resolved to .'ht on—llic end will not bo long. Put much of hritish and French rcsolu- on depends upon America. We have ¦ome 10 our first crisis. Let us hope ':at we shall meet It In tbe spirit of France at the Marne and at Verdun.
THE DYE IXDISTRT
N(»cosslty is the mother of Inven¬ tion, and the war will have some good effects on this country. For years
ho world was at the mercy of Ger¬ many in the matter of the dye sup¬ ply. Since that supply has been cut off this counlry has been taking up
ho Industry, and tho offlciai bulletin for July shows that the United Stales flaring that month exported a half
lill'on dollars worth of aniline dyes ;ilone. This trade will never be lak-
m away from this country and bids 'air to be one of the great industries of America.

Our last port of call in the C-arrib- ben was at Havana. The entrance to this famous harbor is most inipres- -ive, with the frowning forlres.3 of Mono Castle commanding the ap proiicli. As wo passed in all tbo'.ighls ,(;vi lied to the tra);edy of 1808—"Re- nic'Mbt-i' <;io Yai;;..'

The revol'.icion of a few nionti.s ago has suh.^idod and all i;; tranquil.
Havana is a clean beautiful city huilt in the Spanish style, with nar¬ row streets, although the new por> tion has broal avenues and pic
•ircsque plazas. There Is an abun- ilance of vegetation, which gives to the bright colored houses a most pleasant aspect.
We visited Morro Castle, where a miinber of German sailors are Intern¬ ed. These men weri' taken from the •IK rchant shipa which were anchor¬ ed here at the outbreak of the war. The C'lban Government, when It en tereil the conflict, seized these ships, and as an act of a friendly counlry, presenlod four out of the flve to the United States Govemment. These vessels, aggregating over 20,000 tons, ire now In the United Stales being repaired.
VVe were accorded a reception by the Cuban President, who, by the way, Is u graduate of Cornell Uni¬ versity. Thero are many substantial 'iUslnesB enterprises In Havana, and the shops ure attractive and well
locked. Havana, thanks to Ceneral ("orgas, ha.'i a splendid sewage system
