GOVERNORS MESSAGE IS
DELIVERED

Following are the principal points
in the message OF Governor Sparks |
which was sent to the legislature OF
Nevada yesterday afternoon:
Recommends state mineralogist toi
examine and be able to give reports
On every mining district in the state.
Favors terminal point for Nevada
and also thinks present valuation OF
railroads too low.
Asks that deficit incurred by
fish commissioners be met and also
a liberal appropriation be made for
ensuing two years.
Suggests that legislature provide
that any citizen may take out notarlal
commission and not limit number to
a COUNTY.
Suggests that provision be made for
establishing a militia in state.
Asks that repairs be made to capl-
tol, as the building is now leaky and
other repairs are necessary.
Asks that a new water main be put
in to carry water from reservoir to
capitol buildings and grounds as pres
ent one is too small, being only six
inches.
Suggests that law be passed so that
other bonds and securities besides
United States or state bonds can be
purchased with school funds.
Favors creating of office of bank
inspector for protection of people.
Asks legislature to take some act
ion looking to opening Of Carson
/ City mint.
I Favors the increasing of the salar-
! les of the officers and deputies at the
| state capitol.
The most virile part of the bill is
that relating to prize fights and there
the governor says:
Not wishing to reflect upon the
moral standing of the people OF this
state bv alluding to this subject, bu
rather to correct an evil which elnan
ated wholly through legislative enact
ment and which has never been Ell
dorsed by popular vote at the polls
nor would it be if submitted to thu
will of the people, it is my deslr'
to condemn prizehghting more EN-
practically than the proposed amend
ment authorizing a state lottery, AM
say further that this is the only stat
that licenses prize-hghting to finish
, and, therefore, invites an elemen
t more vicious than any so-called spor'
, except perhaps bull fighting, whic
is not licensed by the state and wh!c
= can be punished criminally for cruelt
to animals.
The pernicious influence eSerte
l through prize-fghting upon the yout
of this Commonwealth cannot be e:
S timated or counteracted while tn
" present law exists. Other states ma
# claim to be more holy than Nevad
but whether true or not we shQu
endeavor to respect sentiments ente
tanned by a great majority OF tt
good people of the United State
and restrain the demoralizlng
d fluence authorized by the present la
te "Protection is desired to free o
VI; people of this baneful tendency, al
IT, I recommend that the prize-fight Ia
a. approved January %, 1897, be repe;
IL ed, and that rigid prohibitory mes
IT. ure be enacted in its stead"
