nounces His Candidacy
Gov, Allen Talks,

Governor John Sparks sent last
Wednesday the following message to
Attorney General James G.. Sweeney,
Chairman OF the Democratic State Cen
tral Committee
81 hereby notify yon as chairman Of
the Democratic State Central Committee
of Nevada that | will not be candidate
for any Office before our coming conven-
ton this fall, and request that you make
this announcement public.
John SPARKS, "
Immediately following the governor s
announcement, Attorney-General SWee-
ney made public his regret at the action
OF Sparks and announced his own eandi-
dacy The Attorney General is young
man whose career has been particularly
brilliant, and no one doubts his ability
to make a good race for the gubefnator-
ial chair and to properly fill it, if elected
He was born in this, state and his whole
interests are allied with Nevada To
further the interests OF Nevada, he SAYS
Will be his sole aim, should he be honor
ed with the confidence of his fellow
citizens.
II has been rumored lately that the
real reason for Sparks declination at
the present time is that he intends to
get out into the open where he can give
NeWlands a battle for the United States
Senatorahip two years from now The
State Senators that are to be elected
this year will hold until after the eelec.
ton OF a United States Senator, and the
rumor has it that Sparks will make az
effort to capture those Senators
When shown the dispatch announcing
the Governors decision not TO again al
low his lame to come before a political
convention for State nomination
Lieut.. Gov. Allen evinced great surprise
The lieutenant Governor has been a
close friend and adviser OF Coy Sparks
during the past four years, by reason oi
the personal friendship existing between
the two parties lie had the following
to say
Il regret greatly that the Governor
should decline to accept the puberna-
torial domination | feel that the rec
ord created by him entities him 10 an
other four years as the States chief ex
ecutige, and he certainly would have
been hard man to bent OF course
had he been nominated, l would have
expected to have had the second place on
the ticket again.
Nov that Governor Sparks has posi-
lively declined my only ambition is to
see the fusion forces combine upon the
man who Will command the strongest
support throughout the state
As regards my own candidacy, al
! though the Withdrawal of Sparks alters
| the situation materially, nevertheless
will in all likelihood allow my name to
come before the convention for the
nomination OF Lieutenant Governor "
! Lient Gov. Lemuel Allen has proven
himself an able executive officer during
his fom years incumbency, and in the
opinion OF Churchill county leaders and
others is the logical candidate for Gov
ernof on the Democratis-Slver ticket
since Sparks has announced his with
dra wal.

GROWN ON THE FARM
IN CARSON SINK,
And Placed on Exhibition in
the Reclamation Service
Building.

The exhibit Of farm products an
made nice beginning. Wallace Fer
guson made the original contribution to
the collection and a very creditable
showing the first day. His garden is
celebrated for beets, onions, carrots,
cucumbers, sugar beets and mangle
wurzel. One garden beet weighs So
pounds, which is a pretty good size for
beet. Mr. Ferguson declares the beet
is tender all through and we are inclin-
ed to believe Wallace. His exhibition
OF sugar beets has a most important
significance for the community, for this
val ey can produce first-elass sugar beets
and some day if enough farmers have
the enterprise of Mr.. Ferguson we will
have a sugar factory Mr. Furguson's
onions would bring tears OF joy to the
eyes of any man-Silver King onions
grown from the seed, inches in diam
eter. \ field OF onions OF this kind come
pretty near making a man rich.
Joe Partain came i'll Sunday with a
wheat plant. Joe's plant is grown from
one seed and has l47 heads of wheat.
Over a hundred heads are well filed
and il Joe had II field OF this variety OF
wheat his harvest would be several
times the Biblical hundred fold Par
tain is also out for the sugar beet prize
and brings a very creditable beet.
l.. {. Smith, who lives down Red Riv-
er, sets a standard for summer squash
and the crook neck yellow warty variety
OF the same plant.
Joe Partain, homesteader in district
No. 3, placed ON exhibit at the govern
ment office last week bunch OF wheat,
raised from one grain of seed, which had
by actual count l47 heads. This story
sounds big, but it's true neYerless, and
shows in part the proliflcness OF Chur
chill county soil.
The exhibit while small is creditable
and should be enlarged by every man
who has anything worth exhibiting.

MT Editor, Dear Sir: We are pleased to notice by the papers and the signs of the times that a.spirit of improve ment and reform is fast springing up in our own town and state and neigh boring states. The saloon question with its attendant tevils is being in- vestigated and acted upon. We are glad to see the w. 0. T. U. union en- thusiastic and helpful in this direc- tiOn in an evil so intimately connect ed with the home life of so many that suffer from abuse caused by intoxicat- ing drinks. The churches are making an earnest effort for the salvation of souls. and when the Christ life is preached and adopted great spiritual and moral wave will follow. When souls are converted by the Holy Spirit, all desire to sin will be done away and strength given to overcome tempta- tion to wrong doing. A wonderful work of revival is going on in Danbury through the preaching and prayers of Miss May B. Lord, an evangelist of great power in the spiritual advance ment of the people. Many have been converted and turned from the error of sinful ways, and we pray the saloon men may be among the number; then shall be lessened crime, poverty and disgrace, and new era dawn upon a too long indifferent action for the pub lie need.-[Helen A. Taylor, Great Plain, Danbury.
