Eureka daily sentinel. [volume] (Eureka, Nev.) 1871-1887, 1876-04-23

From all parts of the land our ex-
changes come to us teeming with no.
tees OF the meetings of patriotic citi-
zens to take measures for a proper eel.
ebration of the centennial anniversary
Of our birth as a nation, and in each
exchange there is a list as long as the
the moral law, OF subscriptions to de-
FRAY the necessary incidental expenses.
Eureka alone, it would appear, is
back ward. Here no step has been
taken to do honor to the occasion. We
are, in wealth and in numbers, the
second community in the State; we
have among us sufficient talent Of all
kinds to appropriately celebrate the
day that every true American should
honor; and we submit, in all candor, to
the people of Eureka that their luke
arfnnes in this matter is not worthy
OF them. Let some prominent men
bestir themselves; let a melting be
called; let funds be raised; and for the
sake of our common Inheritance let us
not be dilatory in this matter; let w
not be a mark for the finger OF scorn to
point at. For ourselves, we promise
on the part of every one connected
with the SENTINEL, from editor to
devil, such aid alike personal and Pc
cuniarv as each can afford. Will some.
body go to WORK?
