During the latter days of the civil war President Lincoln began to urge the creation of a state from the then territory of Nevada. The citizens of the territory did not feel equal to the task of supporting theimselves at that time and the first vote was unfavorable. But Lincoln continued to urge the matter and ,later the constitution was adopted. Sometimes the burden of statehood has pressed rather heavily upon us, but we have never complained. Nevada has borne herself manfully. in times of peace and in times of war doin-g her full share. She has maintained a 'high standard and has taken high ground upon all public questions. Her courts have been well administered by just and upright judges, her laws have been sustained. peace and good order have always been the rule, she has built up a fine University, cared for her unfortunates in an insane asylum and penitentiary, as their cases demanded, and she has the distinction of having erected t'he first public orphan asylum ever built. ' Today the prospects for the future are the 'brightest they have ever been. Nothing necessary to the building of a great state was omitted when Nevada was created and today it offers opportunities tothe deserving man or to the careful investor second to no other country. It has undeveloped mines, vacant land for fruit, stock, and crop farms. irrigation plants under the Carey Act and the Reclamation laws which will increase -our population and wealt-h very rapidly in the next few years. The world needs Nevada and wit-h western America going forward in the march of empire as it is doing and as it will do for centuries to come she is only waitin-g for men and capital to do her full share. If citizens of they older states will send their id-le men and part of t'heir idle money out to the idle lands of the west they will get results that will benefit all concerned. i In conclusion, Nevada has the brightest prospect and the indications are that it will become a very rich state. Now let us make it a good sta-te. Let us have quality in our people if we cannot -have quantity. Let the good name 0 our home state 'be uppermost in our minds. Marcus Aurelius said: Whatever is good for the 'beehive is good for the bee. So what- ever is goo-d for our state is good for every citizen of the state, X dfx.. X53 N .. .. . M J H 5 ,fx ir jx- 26

In a day that will be bye and bye, We'll often dream of a by-gone day, And 'sing again the sweet old song: F-or U, of NY' so gay. U. OF N. SO GAY Vllben college days are gone and past, And Wide and far our lots are east, The mem'ry sweet -of days of yore, We'll keep until the last. So here 's to the friendship that binds us in one, And the fair 'hours of youtfh yet undone, Come, drink to tfhe health of old jolly HN. U. And the banner of the silver and the blue. Now fhere's to Nevada, so staunch and so true May prosperity stay with her long. Come, drink to t'he healtfh of old jolly N, U. Where all honor an-d eminence belong. 28
