Governor DickerSon has issued the
/ following proclamation for the otserv'
) of Thanksgiving:
The time hallowed custom. of setting
apart one day out of the three hundred
and sixty.fve for the Offering up. by y
grateful people. of thanks to Almighty
God for blessings received in the past
and prayers for a continuation of those
blessings has become An unwritten law
of our land and each succeeding year
finds the c2Stom more deeply, more
reverently intrenchei in the hearts and
minds Of our people. The time is again
NJ hand for the observance Of such y
day.
The year now drawing TO a close has
been marked bv storm Is well rs sur
shine. \ disastrous financial panic,
Nation wide. seriously affected for n
time the prosperity Of our State. The
un,;mely death. last May of our
honored Governor, John Sparks, cast a
FSili over our Commonwealth tha: has
not vet lifted
Yet have we enjoyed nan great
blessings for which devout thanks
should be returned TO the Giver of all
Good. The bitter industrial strife
which, at the beginning of the year,
threatened, for a time, the peace and
tranquility of our State has given place
TO mutual understanding and harmony
of action between the %contending forces.
Industrial peace now reigns within u
borders. Abundant crops have re-
warded the toll of our farmers. Our
mines have poured forth 4 steady
stream of the precious metals for the
enrichment of our people and the bless
ing Of mankind. Our State is con-
stantly and rapidly growing in popula
ton and wealth and we have within
our boundaries less of extreme poverty
than any other State in the American
Union.
Now, therefore, I, D. S. Dickerson,
Lieutenant and Acting Governor Of the
State of Nevada. in conformity with
the proclamation of the President Of the
United States, do hereby designate rs II
day of general thanksgiving Thursday,
twenty-sixth of this present November.
and do urge and recommend that
throughout the State the people cease
from their wontcd occupations, and ut
their several homes and places of wor.
ship r%cverently thank God for the mani
fold blessings He has bestowed upon us.

Says Silver Will Advance

Sir MorctOn Frcwen. the leading
authority Oh bimetallism and II close
student Of conditions, expresses n
decided opinion that silver will advance
in the near future. In IN interview in
the Denver Times, he says
1T will not-bc ut all surprising to me
if the price Of silver should make Il con
siderable jump along about the first of
January.
Here's what | mcan," continued Mr..
Frcwen. Because of the continuou.
decline of the price Of silvurthc trade Of
the United States with Asia and Other
countries of the Far East has dropped
down to practically nothing, and the
people of these countries have made il
known that they can no longer cOntinu,
commercial relations because of the I'M
~prccedcntcd low price of silver.
Il had not expected any further
silver agitation during my lifetime, but
now it is plain that the Governmental
authorities of the United States must
at the coming meeting of your congress
ito something that Will bring about the
renewal Oi the trade that has been lost
and this can DO accomplished only by
measures that will result in the raising
of the valve of silver"
