A PROCLAMATION
By The Acting Governor Of
Arizona

Recommending the Twelfth Day Of
February, 1910, be observed as a
Holiday in Commemoration of
the One Hundred and First Birth
day of Abraham Lincoln.
1t is observed, the last Legislative
Assembly of the Territory of Ari-
zona, by an Act approved January
%, 1909, declared and established
Friday, the 18th day of February.
1909, to be a legal holiday in COM
memoration of the one hundredth
anniversary of the birth of Abraham
Lincoln. 1t further appears there
was an intent to establish the 18th
day of February as a permanent
legal holiday in commemoration of
the birth of Abraham Lincoln, but
by some means, unexplainable, such
Legislative action was not complet-
ed.
Diligent study and careful deduc-
ton establishes the fact that Abra-
ham Lincoln, as an American citizen
and the embodiment of that some
thing, which is undefinable, within
himself, more nearly approached
that kind and class of government
as intended by the Constitution of
the United States than any statute
which has ever been written, from
the Constitution as basis, or any
chief executive who has ever been
entrusted with that high honor of
administering the law, as expressed
and unexpressed, yet intended by
the Constitution. Abraham Lincoln
not only stood. but the memory of
his life and example will always
stand among the foremost in that
which should comprise the ideal
American citizen. He met the tre-
mendous demands of the hour with
grace, good will and charity, and
simplicity. yet grandeur, few can
appreciate and none explain.
1t should be the pleasurable duty
of every loyal citizen on one day in
the year, to give at least few
thoughts and devote. time for at
least little study as to whom this,
great patriot was. The 18th day of
February. 1910, will be the one
hundred and first anniversary of his
birth and on that day millions of
Americans will gather throughout
this great nation in commemoration
of his memory.
THEREFORE, l, GEORGE U.
YOUNG, Acting Governor of Arizona,
by virtue of the liberty and power
allowed me, do hereby recommend
that Friday, the 18th day of Febru-
ary. 1910, be observed as a holiday,
and that, in accord with the higher
responsibilities of everv American
citizen, all business, public and pri-
vate, be suspended on that day, and
the day devoted to those things ap-
propriate to cherish the memory of
Abraham Lincoln.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, | have
hereunto set my hand and caused
the great seal of the Territory of
Arizona to be affixed.
Done at the city of Phoenix, the
capital, this twenty-seventh day of
January, nineteen hundred and ten.

PITIEs PEOPLE NOT IN JAIL.
Hundreds of Dissatisfied, Struggling
Persons at Liberty.

The following letter from an in
mate of the Chatham county Jail to
the Savannah Press is, to say the
least, something out of the ordinary:
To the Editor of the Savannah
Press: Sir: Will you allow me
space in your valuable paper to ex-
plain the many manifold advantages
of Jail life by one who has spent
the best part of fifteen years in the
bar and steel world?
In fact, | consider it as near to
the ideal as any poor devil may hope
to secure upon this sphere. To be-
gin with, we are not encountered
with the toll and responsibilities of
commercial life. No domestic
troubles; no worrying about meeting
coal bills; no work, no fear of break
ing one of the thousand and more
laws and ordinances that the simple
minded citizen deems necessary to
surround himself with. 1t is the
only place of refuge today where a
man can cast aside the shackles of
cOnVentiOnality where he has the
utmost quiet and tranquility of spir-
1t. A feeling of profound pity per-
yades my soul as l think of the
hundreds of miserable, dissatisfied
Wretches who are dragging out a
humdrum existence, all striving to
find their Utopia. And to just think
OF this veritable paradise being near
them all this time undiscovered. I
am, sir, HARRY GREY.

LIVINGSTON WILL BE LAWYER
viii Practice in Washington When
He Quits Congress.

Col. L. F. Livingston will take UP
the practice of law in Washington
D. c.. after the expiration of his
term in congress.
The report which emanated from
Washington to the effect that Colo
mel Livingston was an applicant for
either the position Of clerk of the
house or sergeant-at-arms of that
body is emphatically denied by per-
sons in Atlanta in position to
know. 1t is also said that while
Colonel Livingston is not only not
an applicant for either position he
would not accept either if they were
rendered to him.
Colonel Livingston is now in
Washington perfecting arrangements
to take up the practice of his pro-
fession after the first of the year.

CATHOLICS OBSERVE
FEAST OF ASCENSION
Services Significant of Depar-
ture of Christ From Earth, in
st. Mary'S Cathedral.

Thursday was Ascension day, and
the occasion was observed in the Cath
olic churches throughout the world In
st. Msry's cathedral in this city there
were two masses in the morning and
benedictlon in the evening. The mass
at o'clock was said by the Rev. Lau-
renee 2. Craney. Father Craney is

Ascension day marks the fortieth
day. after the resurrection of Jesus
Christ-the fortieth day after Easter.
IL also marks the end of tho paschal
season, and after the gospel in the
high mass in the Catholic churches the
pasehal candle, which WAS lighted at
Easter to symbolic the resurrection of
the light of the world, is extinguished
signlfying Christ's departure from the
earth.

observed BY ppople in the Suburbs of
Constantiuople in 800, and in the west.

thought to be attested by an obscure
canon OF the council Of Elvira in 3O6.
There is also record that the oc-
casion was observed in Jerusalem in
tho latter part Of the third and begin
ming of the fourth centuries.
The services on this feast are ex-
tremly solemn in their character.
