NOTE FROM A EUREKA TRAv.
ELER

We received yesterday the following
note from a well-known Eurekan who
left here here a Jew weeks ago on a
visit to his friends and relatives in the
East. His statement concerning the
political outlook corresponds with
nearly every account we have had
from persons who have travelled in the
East since the commencement of the
campaign:
DEBORAH, Iowa, Oct. 2, 1876.
EDITORS SENTINEL: l arrived here,
my old home, about a week ago and
will, in company with some old
friends, start for Philadelphia to-mor-
row.. l learned of the Democratic
nominees by telegraph, all of whom l

in time to cast a straight vote for all of
them. Tilden is all the rage east of the
Missouri river. His election is count
ed IN as a certainty in every place 7

tally,

Hon. Thomas Wren, Republican
candidate for Congress, and H. F.
Bartine, Of Carson, will address the
citizens of Eureka tonight. Mr.. Bar
tine, though a working man, is spoken
Of by the Western Nevada press as
a fluent and eloquent speaker and
logical reasoner; and, this being Mr..
Wren's home and he having a large
circle Of friends here, comprising MEM
bers of both political parties, his APP
pearance on the stand will, no doubt,
be warmly greeted and a patient hear.
ing accorded him by Republicans who
go their pile on him, and Democrats,
who are anxious to hear what he may
have to say in apology for the acts of
the present Administration and the
corruption Of the Republican party.

ARRIVAL. Last Night.

THE Elko County Board of Equali-
zation is reported in the Eureka SEN
TINEL as refusing to diminish the as
sessment on the narrow-guage railway
for the reason that it "had worked an
injury to the Elko county farmers by
creating a competition in the grain
trade of this market, OF which the
aforesaid farmers had a monopoly
prior to the construction of the rail-
road" just what this view of the
Ease has to do with reducing the rate
OF the roads assessment we are at a
loss to understand. The Commission
ers of Elko county do not move upon
as broad a guage as some public insti-
buttons WI have read of, if they are
correctly reported-Carson Appeal.

FELL IN THE DITCH.-Last evening
while a number of little boys were
playing on Spring street, at the corner
of Bateman street, a little boy named
Frank Titus, and aged six years, fell
off of the bridge that crosses the ditch
at that point, tumbling headlong to the
bottom, a distance of about ten feet.
Fortunately, the bottom was soft mud,
and the boy sustained no injury though
he was scared as badly as if he had
been carried up by a whirlwind. The
boy is the child of A. T.. Titus.

GONG TO THE RENO SEMINARY
Miss Aggie Hall, daughter Of Uncle
Dave Hall, left on this mornings train
for Palisade, accompanied by her
mother, en- route for Reno, where she
will enter the new Episcopal Seminary
about to be opened there. The SEN
TINEL wishes Miss Aggie a pleasant
journey and a happy school life, and
hopes she may gain and increase in
knowledge till she knows as much as
does a Nevada editor.
ScARcELY.-A correspondent writing
to the Virginia Enterprise, over the
signature OF "~Canfield," says: "You

holding that opinion and possessing
the nerve to back it with amalgam can

persons DESTROYS of attending the an
niversary ball of the Union. The ball

that it will be a grand affair and largely
attended.
REGISTERED VoTERs.-At the closing
of the registration books in Justice
Beatty's office, last night, the names of
1,I56 voters appeared thereon. AS the
books do not close until the night of
the goth instant, it is now thought that
the registered vote of Eureka town
| ship will exceed considerably the
number at which it has been eSti-
mated, which was 81 1920.
CoLoRED CITIZENS CLUB.-Our col
ored fellow-citizens held a meeting
last night and organized a campaign
club to be known as the Sumner Club.

A BLONDE IN TowN.-Ed. Raum, the
blonde Sheriff of White Pine county,
arrived in town last night from some
place or other. He started from Ham
ilton, but came by a circuitous route,
having travelled hither and thither in
the tortuous windings of an election
eering trip. In his ~journeyings he had
occasion to pass over an alkali desert
on which the sun was f~iercely shining,
and the heat of the desert reflected
back into his facial lineaments and
turned his entire c~ountenance as red
as a spanked baby's face.
RETURNED. james Sias, Republi-
can candidate for Sheriff, and Hank.
Knight, Republican candidate for As
SCISSOR, returned last evening from
their electioneering o II through the
northern portion of the county. They
brought back zone of the provisions
they carried out in demijohns and,
likewise, none of the cigars they owned
when they started. Knight says the
portion of the county which he visited
is dead sure for a Republican or DEM
cratic majority at the coming election,
but he forgets which.
