Proclamation AT no period in the
history since the United States became q
nation has this people had So abundant
and so universal reasons for joy and graft
tude at the favor of Almighty God, or
been subject to so profound an obligation
to give thanks for his loving kindness and
humbly To improve his continued care and
prosperity. The health, wealth and pros
perity throughout all our borders, peace
honor and friendship with all the world,
firm and faithful adherence by the great
body Of our population to the principles
of liberty and justness, which have made
our greatness as a nation, to the wise IN
stitutions and strong frame of government,
and society which will perpetuate it For
al these let the thanks of a happy and
united people as with one voice ascend in
devout homage to the giver of all good.
| therefore recommend that on Thursday,
the 9th day of November, the people
meet in their respective places OF worship
to make acknowledgment for his bounties
and his protection, and To offer to him
prayer for their continuance.
In witness whereof, have hereuntO set
my hand and caused the seal Of the Uni

The Crisis in Ireland.

Irrlapd is very nearly in state OF re-

the Land Leagiie, ~ho are charged with
agitation. TO London, is step that will
provoke the League to still more violent
agitation: There are indications also,
that the agitation will not be confined to
Ireland. The burning of the Manches-

fire was the work of an incendiary, ma

Col Jim Fair.

Col james G. Fair is a candidate, in
Nevada, for seat in the National Senate
The Pacific Slope knows no man SSNa4sS
better eatitled to the h9Sor Col FAIR
has for many yesSs been closely identified
with the most Important material interest
of the Western half Of the United States.
He has been lncky, and prospered exceed
ingly, but his prosperity has never made
him lose sight of those less fortunate.
With all his millions, there is no more
false pride about him to-day than there
was when "Jim" Fair was comparatively
poor-and he can scarcely be said to be
that now, with an income Of some 800, :
900 a month California and Nevada
have never known a more popular man.
Though discreet and prudent in business,
money runs through his fingers like water
whenever his generosity or sOciability
gives him chance to spend it His edu-
cation is sound, finished and thoroughly
American, as are also his political views.
His business and executive ability is ex-
ceptionally good. Though not gifted with
a fiowery tongue, Col. Fair speaks sensi-
bly, and to the point He is close stu
dent Of public affairs, and is well able to
speak his mind about them. In word
he is a man who, whatever his vocation,
is sure to make his mark.
