INDEPENDENT.

The Governor issues the following:
Not proclamation.
The constitution and laws of the
State of Nevada do not confer upon the
Chief Executive the authority to sus-
pend, by proclamation or otherwise,
the transaction of business. But the
day which the last sad rites over the
mortal remains of the Chief Executive
of Is great state are to be performed,
should by common consent be set apart
as day of loving remembrance to the
honorcd dead.
Monday, the twcnty.fifth of May, a.
ID. 1908, being the day on which the
last solemn rites and ceremonies are to
be performed and observed over all that
is now mortal of our late lamcntcd
Governor, John Sparks, deem il fitting
and proper that on that day business in
the State of Nevada should bc suspend.
cd, in order that the citizens Of our state
may assemble and express their sorrow
for the loss the state has sustained.
The untimcly death of our late
hODorcd Governor was due, in large
measure to the earnest efforts he put
forth in discharging tho duties of his
high Office in manner that would
rebound to tho best interests Of the
state Inc loved.
Now, therefore. |. u. S. Dickcrson,
Lieutenant and Acting Governor of tho
State Of Nevada, do earnestly urge and
request that all citizens of Nevada lay
aside their usual avocations on Monday
the twcnty.fifth, day of May, 1908, and
unite in paying a just and deserved
tribute To the memory of him who
sacrificed his life on the altar of duty,
our late lamcnted Governor. John

and he motiUned to the mo5her to bring
the child closer. The child was brought
to him and he kissed it. A smile of
peace then moved his lips. He said no
more, but gradually grew weaker nm
til the end came.
A widow, two sons, Benton and Frank
and daughter, Mrs. Mckenzie of
San Francisco, survive him. They
mourn the loss Of Il loving induigent
husband and father and the people of
Nevada mourn with them the loss of
an able, honest, fearless governor. All
over Nevada today peoples hearts are
slddcned by the news that Honest John
Sparks, governor of Nevada, has laid
down the burden of life. May the
knowledge Of this tighten the sorrow
of his loved ones.
Governor Sparks WAS held i'll high
esteem by the people of Nevada. His
political enemies never questioned his
honor or doubted the sincerity of his
purpose. There is no partisan bitter
ness to rankle at his grave. Friend and
foe alike honor and revere his memory.
He fought good fight and may endless
peace he his on the other shore
The Reno Gazette pays the following
tribute to the governors honesty and
sincerity:
For little over six years John Sparks
has been governor of Nevada. To men
who venture into the uncertain and I'M
charted sea of politics is given the cross
of criticism. The cross he bore like u
man, although to man of his sensitive
spirit the rancor and the bitterness that
are children of public life, brought keen
est pain. But even those who criticized
him most were never unwilling to say
that if error crcpt into any act Of his,
it was error OF the mind and not Of the
large. unfailing heart of,his.
And now John Sparks is dead. He
has blazed his last trail, and Over There
somewhere, his eternal camp is pitched
on some Elysian field. His memory
will endure, for he was cast in that
large mould which the gods formerly
used more often than they do i'll these
times. And the memory will be fra
grant one, for John Sparks was gen.
tleman, ''unabashed and unafraid.'

Mr.. Bryan gave to the press on
Tuesday reply to President
Roosevelt's latest open letter and
it was a most complete answer.
The President is reported as
having said that as that had to
do with him personally he should
not answer it, so perhaps the
open letters will cease. 1t is
stated, however, that if he sees
the necessity for it the President
may take the stump for Mr..
Taft. John D. Archbold, vice
president of the Standard Oh
Co., says that the letters Hearst
has made public were stolen from
his files. Ex-senator McLaurin,
of South Carolina, shamelessly
admits his communications with
the Standard Oil people anc
glOries in it.

GREAT DEMOCRATIC RAJ.

Horseback Parade-Dinner

Square-A Great Day Greatly
Enjoyed.
Tuesday was an ideal day for
the great Democratic rally in
Lumberton. The heat and clouds
and rain of the preceding day
gave place to delightfully."- cool
weather, with not a cloud in the
sky-an ideal Indian summer day
when one feels naturally inclined
to roam afeld or, better still, at
tend a gathering CT Democratic
hosts in the capital of the Estate
of Robson. And the people
came from far and near. Early
in the morning they began to
come in by rail, in buggies, in
wagons, on horseback, mule
back, on foot-any old way they
came from all parts of the coun.
ty, singly, in pairs or in crowds
until they swelled the crowd tt
an extent that caused Hon. w
w. Kitchin, the next Governor
of the State, when he faced the
vast audience to make the speech
that was the occasion for tn,
rally, to declare that he had NO
faced such large concourse O.
people at any other place during
the entire campaign so far. Tha
was what it was intended to Civ
him occasion to say, for it is mos
fitting that the largest county i
the State should give evidence O
her intention to hold Robeso
and save the State" as she di
back in 1875-ftting that sh
should give evidence of her il
tention of rolling up a large ma
jority for the Democratic nom
nees in November by coming OIL
in force to hear the man VIII
heads the State ticket. M
Kitchin spoke for two hours, pr,
senting the issues of the day
a clear and forceful manner, ;
he always does, following a paraC
of the principal streets OF tt
town, and then dinner was serve
on the court house square. TIL

Thousands of imprisoned and PIN

cate themselves, are being burned
alive, others dying of their injuries,
while many are starving.
The streets are filled with confused

cases the streets are twisted into fan
tastic shapes.

which runs along the sea front from
the university to the postoffice, is quite

All the public monuments that were
