Eureka daily sentinel. [volume] (Eureka, Nev.) 1871-1887, 1881-09-20

rangement we will not announce any meet
ing, provided you will withdraw your APP
pointments. However, if you do not care
TO do it, sense and duty compels us to say
we do not feel like opening the campaign
while the President fingers at the door OF
death. Yours respectfully,
CLARK IRVINE, Chairman.
GEORGE B. KEY, Secretary.
COLUMBUS, o., September INT
Clark Irvine, Chairman OF the Democratic
State Executive Committee, Dear Sir
Your favor of this day received. In reply
/ will saw This committee before it an
nounced the opening of its campaign for
the the 18th, not the Goth, as stated in your
letter, determined that a fair, honest and
candid presentation of the principles OF the
Republican party would be neither i'm
proper nor uppatriotic. These principles
President Garfield loved and advocated
with all his great power. From his lifelong
and magnificent record we know their
triumph is most earnestly wished for by
him. Whether by the will of Providence
President Garfield lives or dies, it is the
sacred duty Of the Republicans TO use all
proper means to maintain these principles.
President Garfield when a soldier for the
Union never faltered because an eminent
and useful commander fell upon the field Of
btttlcs H OaTnSlu y FOt(O COuio o0 hCatAs
he would aid his old comrades with "Do
not abandon our principles because / suffer"
In contending for his and their principles
Republicans will follow his example and
obey his command. Whether it is proper
at this time TO advocate principles which
the President always believed to be injur-
ious to the country is a question for your
committee to determine for itself. In con-
clusion let me assure you that no one can
feel greater sorrow at the critical condition
of the President than those who stood by
him and vindicated his honor and good
name from all attacks less than one year
ago. Very respectfully,
GEORGE X. NASH, Chairman.
Guiteau Relieved In Body and
Mind.
NEW YORK, Sept. 19.-The Tribune's
Washington special says: Guiteau has
been removed to an inner cell, which has
been especially constructed for him. and
so arranged that he cannot be seen by his
guard from any point of view. He is.
therefore, safe from assassination by shoot
ing. Guiteau has suffered much from ap-
prehension of personal harm, and since
his removal to his new cell he has ex-
pressed himself to Warden Crocker as
much relieved in mind and body. He has
little light now and not much air. but he
prefers these conditions, coupled as they
are with greater safety to his person.
Six Hundred and Fifty MormOns.
OMAHA, Sept. 19.-Six hundred and
fifty Mormon converts, principally Eng
lish and Scandinavians, passed through
Omaha yesterday on a special train for
Utah. A few of them will go to the new
Mormon settlements in Arizona. They
appeared to be a more intelligent and bet
ter class of people than any previous lot
of Mormon immigrants who have passed
through Omaha for years.
An Amusing Incident.
CHICAGO, Sept. 19.-Tom Keene met
with an amusing mishap at Cleveland the
other night during his performance Of
Richelieu. To his great dismay his beard
and mustache parted company with his
face. Seemingly he took no notice of the
accident. but the sight was a novel one,
and interested the audience even more
than his performance.
A Special Court Martial.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 19.-General Han
cock will detail a special court martial to
try Sergeant Mason, who attempted to
shoot Guiteau.
