Gov. Sparks Renominated.
On the 29th of August, the
democrats of Nevada renominat-
ed for governor the present in-
cumbent, Gov. Jchn Sparks of
Reno. This convention was the
union of the democrats proper
and the Silver Party. Governor
Sparks did not care to serve
again and at the time of the open-
ing of the convention was out of
the city. Before the nominations
for state offices had begun, he
returned, and finally agreed to
accept the nomination. He will
have very little trouble in being
elected as the democrats are in
power in that state.
In a letter to his brother, M.
Y. B. Sparks of this city, he says:
“I do not want the office and al-
most despise the position, but
that does not check the public
feeling of the people of Nevada.
It was simply worse than an old
fashioned hurricane, the conven-
tion day in Reno. I left the state
to avoid the meeting, but that
had no bearing on the delega-
tions from the counties. They
were solid and when they ap-
pealed to me in a-way that they
thought our old party was liable
to lose its power, I yielded, and
so here it goes. I will make an
honorable fight, and if elected
will make an honest governor.”
The Nevada Observer, the
leading paper of Reno, makes
very complimentary mention of
Governor Sparks and strongly
urges his re-election.
The question of keeping open
the Dallas Fair on Sunday is be-
ing agitated over the country and
is creating some strong feeling.
It is a question which the good
people of the state can settle
rightly and settle forever if they
will only put forth their best ef-
forts. There never has and never
can be any question about the
wrong of keeping open such a
fair on Sunday. The arguments
which have been advanced in
favor of it are to flimsy to merit
consideration of thinking people.
It is simply a question of whether
the good people of Texas will
stand by and see the Sabbath
day desecrated by a 9et of un-
principled money grabbers.
Their pretended solicitude for the
pleasure of the working people is
all bosh. They want the extra
day’s revenue. The press of the
state can do much toward pie-
venting this disgrace being put
upon the fair name of Texas.
They can stimulate a strong pub-
lic sentiment against it, and their
words are not without their in-
fluence with the fair officials. Let
us not do a thing that the nation-
al government forbids in all great
expositions where the government
has any exhibits, let us not do a
thing that common sense tells us
is wrong and disgraceful. Keep
the Dallas Fair gates eloped on
Sunday.
Texas is particularly foytunate
this year in getting two lof the
fastest harness horses of the
world for exhibition races this
fall. In Fort Worth, Dan Patch,
the pacing champion with a'.rec-
ord of 1:55, and Cresceus, at\one
time the fastest trotter inlthe
world and who still holds ibhe
stallion trotting record, will go
exhibition miles on the Ft. Worth
track in the effort to lower their
records. The great trotter was
in Texas some years ago and his
admirers, especially in North
Texas, are numbered by the
thousands. Dan Patch is per-
haps the more noted horse of the
H. F. Lewis is
business.
