Morning appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1877-1906, 1904-09-28

therefore l am anxious to zee Nevada
send a Senator who is on our side ON
the great questions before the Ameri-
can people ED whoever your candidate
may be, if he stands for the peoples
side of public questions, | am will
ling to come from Nebraska into New
ada and say word in his behalf, if |
anything l may say would have any |
influence in his favor.
You are peculiarly fortunate in the !
| fact that you have as your Democratic |
and Fusion candidate man who, in a
special degree represents your State.
1T was the mining interests that
first brought Nevada into notorietv
and l am glad to know that in the
southern part of the State they are de-
veloping fields that may again bring
Nevada into nOtorietv as a great min
ing state 1t is one of the principle
| interests of the State; so is agricUl-
ture and with the enforcement of the
Newlands' act for the reclamation OF
arid lands, you are going to add large
ly to your tilable acreage; you Will
add largely to your agricultural pop
iulation, so that this interest is grow
ing
And the third interest is that of
railroads. There are two sides of the
railroad question. There is one side
of the man who makes money out CT
the road and the man who pays the
freight. You have candidate who
represents all these interests.
Governor Sparks represents the
mining interests fthe State. He has
lived here long enough to be thorough
,ly identified with every business in
dustry in the State. There is not a
does not interest him. or about which
he is not informed. or that comes be
: fore the United States Senate. upon
which he cannot speak, not only as
one interested, but as an expert.
81 was out on his ranch yesterday
and as farmer, | am able to give tes-
ti1nony as to the breed of cattle he
raises there and there is not a ques-
| ton that concerns agriculture, the re-
l ciamation of your arid plains, but what
he can speak as person who knows,
and one who has actual experience on
the subject. And he is also interested
in the railroad business as one who
ships over the road, and it will be diff
L cult to find man, who, as United
States Senator at Washington, will be
r more interested than Governor Sparks
Therefore, if anything l can say will
9 add one vote or increase the majority
/ that will be cast in his favor, l am
X delighted to be able to say it.
e Il am further interested because |
l. believe we are going to have the ell.
i ection Of Senators by direct vote, and
IL Governor Sparks is pledged to this
q great reform.
u Il am glad to have you send from
e Nevada man who will stand there as
y the champion of the resolution and
will thus open the gate to reforms
n that will follow. l am anxious to sec
n Governor Sparks elected. If you
q could vote directly for him there woult
Il be no doubt about it, but at presen

H. for members of the Legislature, an

IS bers of the Legislature, consider how
u these members will vote for Unitet
ID States Senator, and want to urge Up
s. on you that you cast your vote TO
III members of the Legislature and Sen
Is ators who are pledged to Governo
lie Sparks election.
N You will also elect a Congressman
lie You have had one for the past tw,
is years. He's a young man whom
n know. 1 want to say for Mr.. VanDy
lie ger, he is one of the few young me-
H. lin Congress who has made for himsel
name, and in so short time ha
IN made remarkable progress. He ha
IN stood in the foremost rank in discus
ne ing questions of interest, not only j,
OF Nevada, but the entire country.
re \know no one better prepared to di
H. ,cuss the money question than Nevada
as young member of Congress. 1t woul
ur be great mistake if you, by any mes
ligence, defeat him.
