The Independent acknowledges
with thanks, the receipt of num-
ber of Mexican papers from Mrs.
E. G. Weston of Oakland, Calf.
They are copies of the Mexican
Herald published in Mexico City
and give graphic account of the
terrific bombardment and intense
suffering, when FIX president
Madero was overthrown. The
Herald was the only paper publish
ed continuously during the bonn
bardment and by orders of Madero
it was forced to suspend for a day
or two. The Herald is interesting
reading and one gets glimpse of
Mexican warfare, intrigue and
politics that does not inspire con-
fidence IN, or COMPEL admiration
for such barba,ous customs as
appear to prevail inss that grief
stricken country.

REPOR1 ON NEVADA SITE
FOR 1915 EXPOSITION

Report Ot committee delegated
to select site for the State of
Nevada at exposition grounds at
San Deigo, California and as to
the making of an appropriation
by the legislature for the main
tainence of exhibits at expositions
to be held in San Deigo and San
Francisco, State of California, in
the year 1915.
To the Honorable:
The members of the Senate of
the Nevada Legislature.
Gentlemen:
.> We, the undersigned, selected
committee. do recommend that
whatever appropriation may be
made by your honorable body, that
the same be equally divided between
the Panama-Pacific-In
Exposition to be held in the city of
San Francisco, California and the
Panama-California Exposition, to
be held in San Diego, CAL, in the
year 1915.
After having inspected, unoffi-
cially, the Panama-Pa Pacific Inter-
nation nal Exposition and compared
the same in as many of its features
as out limited time permitted, we
feel that the results produced for
the amount of money expended
will be as great in San Deigo as in
San Francisco on account of the
difference of the character of the
Exposition, San Deigo making a
specially of irrisgation, agricul-
ture, and horticulture processes
made along the above indicated
lines. .....
No doubt the various members
of your Honorable Body are more
familiar with thea~ plans of the pro-
posed Panama-Pacific Exposition
IN those Of the Panama. California
Exposition, and we therefore sub
nit few of tile plans as outlined
by the last named Exposition. They
are as follows: The Exposition
grounds will cover an area of about
six hundred and fifteen (615)
acres. The general exhibits and
main buildings to cover about one
hundred (100) acres; the states
and foreign countries about 100)
acres; the counties in California
about twenty-five (25) acres; open
air exhibits one hunnred Q00)
acres: landscape gardens and parks
two hundred and fifty (25O) acres;
the amusement section known as
the "lshtmus" about twenty-five
acres, or about eight thousand (8,-
O0O) feet of space. ..r
This committee has selected a
site for the State of Nevada that
adjoins those of New Mexico, Ariz-
ona. Colorado and Montana, subject
to the approval of your Honorable
Body and the Governor of the
State Of Nevada.
In conclusion, this committee are
unanimous that whatever appro-
priation is made that it be equally
divided between these two Exposi-
tions.
Respectfully Submitted.
