THANKSGIVING DAY
PROCLAMATION

State of Nevada, Executive Depart
ment-Thanksgiving Proclamation.
The President of the United States
having by proclamation designated
Thursday, November 81, 1913, as a Ma
tional day of Thanksgiving, now,
therefore, I, Tasker l.. eddie, Cover
nor of the State of Nevada, in obedi
ence to law and custom, do hereby pro.
claim and designate Thursday, Novem-
Der %, 1913, a day of public thanks
giving to the Supreme Ruler of Ma
tions for the blessings bestowed upon
us during the year.
The people of this state have many
reasons for thankfulness. Our mining
interests have shown untold prospect
ty, as is evidenced by the wonderful
production of gold, silver and cop
~er; the area of our agricultural lands
under cultivation is rapidly increasing
and our harvests are greater than in
preceding years; our wage-earners are
employed and labor and capital are on
friendly terms. Poverty among us is
unknown and prosperity abounds.
These are the material blessings
which the All-Wise Father has bestow-
ed upon us during che year drawing to
a close, and for which grateful ac-
acknowledgement, through prayer and
thanksgiving, should be made.
|, therefore, recommend that On this
day the people cease from their labors
and, gathering in their homes and
churches. they make it a day of praise
and ~gladness.
Tn witness whereof, | have hereunto
set my hand and caused the great seal
of the state to be affixed, at the CAPT
toll in Carson City. this 10th day of
November, 1913.

ADVICE OF GREAT VALUE TO
THE AMERICAN PEOPLE

If a man does not provide for his
children, if he does not provide for all
those dependent upon him, and if he
has not that vision of conditions to
come, and that care for the days that
have o yet dawned, which we sum
up in the whole idea of thrift and saw
ing, then he has not opened his eyes
to any adequate conception of human
life. We are IN this world to provide
not for ourselves, but for others, and
that is the basis of economy.

WESTERN PACIFIC WILL TAKE

Letters received in Carson within

ally believed in Eureka that the West

is almost unfit for business and for
a long time its rolling stock has been
so decrepit that it has been unable to
handle the limited amount of freight
that has been awarded it. The road
is e~ightv-four miles long. and passes
though a wonderfully rich country. and
run ON business principles, should be
come a great factor in the upbuilding
of Eureka county.
1t has been stated that if the old
road had been in good condition it
could have been supplied with daily
shipments of ore from the old mines
of Eureka to the amount of a thous-
and tons a day. but because of the
management refusing to prepare for
the freight it could not be handled.
There are a number of big low grade
lead and silver mines in Eureka that
win produce ore of a value of SO a ton.
and estimates made of the amount
place it at over a million tons. This
is all above the water level; what is
below that, and what its value, is a
matter of conjecture, but the old
timers of Eureka eandidlv believe
that if the mine could be unwatered,
ore taken out and shipped at reason
able rates. Eureka would again come
into the limelight and reassume the
position it held back in the seventies.
