appointed for the Republican pri-
maries, and the candidates and poll
ticians of that party are busily engaged
arranging the wires and fixing things
generally for the success of their sew
eral tickets. The greatest interest APP
pears to center upon the contest for
Sheriff, for which position there are
four prominent candidates, viz: Geo.
w. Gilmore, the present incumbent;
Judge Doolan, of the Jackson mine;
Mr.. Sias. of the firm Of Sias q Nc
Gully, the ~weil-known b~lacksmiths;
and James McMartin, of the firm of
McMartin IL Sloss, saddlers. The con
test for the Treasurership is also wax
ing somewhat warm. The candidates
whom we have heard mentioned for
hat position are: ID. Il. Immel, the
of the Parker House; Max.yOberfelder,
the grain dealer; and .. Dunkel, the
w~ell-known merchant. All of the
candidates above mentioned are good
men, and qualified to discharge the
duties Of the positions to which they
aspire. For County Clerk, the anne
of A. ID. Haskell and DR.. f. J. Schnei-
der will be presented. For Recorder,
X. l.. Chase, the present incumbent,
and w. A. Durley, are III the field.
Hank Knight appears to have clear
field fol- the nomination for Assessor,
and we have not heard the name of
any person mentioned as the Conven-
toms candidate for District Attorney.
The primaries promise to be quite
spirited, although the probabilities are
they will not be SO holly contested as
| we're those Of the Democracy last Sat
urday.
THAT BEr.-Deacon Parkinson of
the Carson Tribune, in answer to our
proposition to jeopardize a suit OF but
ternut jeans against a pair of peniten-
tiary brogans upon the State of New
York going for Tilden and Hendricks,
says:
ave will 90 you some on hat Dem
mis-, but living at the Capital of the
state, and your old-fashioned Pike
county jeans not being suitable for an
aristocratic, high-toned editor, we de-
sire tn make it Ohio broadcloth, and if
We don't Hayes you mex November,
Brother Cassidy shall have 4, Grand new
gaff topsail plug hat when he to
the Senate in January
Ohio broadcloth. Who aver heard
Of such a fabric? It's as anomalous as
"Republican reform!" And then the
idea of Hayesing MS les November!
Wait Til-den, Deacon, and you'll ac-
knowledge yourself the worse fooled
dog in the ring. By-the-bv, our
Seniors sizs is number ten-Webste-
rian measure.
CHOLERA INFANTUM.--Fred. II.
Hart, ex editor of the ReUeitte, had a
narrow escape night before last. Some
hours after retiring to his little bed he
was suddenly seized with cholera iD-
fantum and for three mortal hours he
rolled and tumbled and writhed like
a horse sick unto dolth Of the
bots. His abdominal regions were in
a painful state OF anarchy and for a
time every breath promised To be his
last. He willed all OF his effects 10 the
Sa2arac Lying club, Of Austin, Of
which he is Al honorary member.
Fortunately, the timely arrival of
Doctor Bishop settled the business.
The Doctor applet a three-horse power
Babcock extinguisher 10 extrem-
ity, and a seye~nteeu-inch stroke. re-
en-
CINE to the other, and in nine minutes,
by the watch, the patient was relieved.
Fred. was on his pins as usual yester-
day, though looking a little pale after
his experience of the night before.
MACALLIsTER. - large audience
greeted Prof. Macallister last night at
Bigelow's Hall. Many of the illusions
presented were wonderful and seemed
impossible of performance by human
agency. The distribution of prizes
which took place at the close of the
entertainment created great amu>e-
ment, many of the presents being
worth many times the price of admis-
sion. Alexander Mckay was the for
tuuate winner of a tea set of 40 pieces,
and others drew dress patterns, sacks
of flour, a kit of mackerel, SETS Of
glassware, etc. Tonight will be offered
an entire change OF programme, intro
ducing several startling feats. The
first prize will be a ten-dollar gold
piece. Seats can be secured at Bige-
lows Hall without extra charge.
MEDICINE CASE Losr.-Dr. Bishop
lost his medicine and instrument case
| yesterday somewhere between his
Office and the Eureka and Palisade
Railroad depot. IL was of reddish mo-
rocco with black straps, and contained
packages of medicines and surgical in
struments. The finder will be suita-
bly, rewarded by leaving it at the Doc
tors Office.
HARD ON Horse FLEsH.-It is re.
ported that nineteen valuable horses
have been killed in the wild chase
after country proxies to the Demo-
cratic County Convention. The friends
of two rival candidates made the trip
from here to Beowawe in 8 hours and
IL minutes. Each of the parties killed
six horses. There MAS still more chaff
ing when it was known that the Beo-
wave delegate had turned his vote
over to the Palisade delegation. Now
