The original celebration of Guy Fawkes Night happened partly because Guy Fawkes plot was intended to help return England to the Catholic Church, and most English people were very much against that. America's traditions were based on religious tolerance, and the celebration of Guy Fawkes Night would seem contrary to their feelings.
The celebration of Guy Fawkes Night is partly because of the fact that the king was saved from the plotters. Americans generally do not care for the monarchy.
Americans celebrate Thanksgiving and Veterans Day in November, so they do not much need another holiday that month.
