POLLOCK IRA GEDE.

|
/ 4 New Theory a. to TIE Cause Of Death,
4 new theory has been developed in
the Pollock tragedy of ix-mile Canyon
near Virginia City, and enc which I'D
the light of recent revelations has not
few supporters. There has been no
clue found which weuld further sup
port the belief that has prevailed that
the victims we're murdered hut, on the
contrary, there have been indications
revealed which might be accepted rs
plausible grounds for the belief that
the deaths were the result Of accident.
1t IS stated THAT the Pollocks were strong
believers in Spiri tualism and in Their
solitary home frequently INDUCED
themselves in the to them plea,urthlc
pursuit Of Knowledge and light in that
mystic doctrirc. \ former servant
Girl Of the old couple states that their
proceedings in this pursuit, IN then
secluded residence, were often OF such
a startling character ~ to absolutely
tcrrify her They not unfrequcntly sat
up late at night, cndcavorng to put
each other in mpsmeric condition, and
upon the succumhing Of one or the other
t, the pecuiir influence, 1t then be-
came the servants duty 10 assist the
helpless one to bed The effect upon
their physical systems of thee opera
tinns was extremely enervating. and
they often thus became thoroughly
prostratcd The theory of the affair
now is that the unfortunate old people,
after INDUCING in some such not
unsual for them. kind Of pastlnl". acct
dentallv overturned their lamp and
set fire to the house and being I'M
conscious and helpless through physical
and mental pfostration were unable to
save themselves by fleeing from the
building. This theory is plansibly sup
ported to some extent Ey the explana-
ton that the fluctuations found upon
the charred skulls of the victims may
have been caused by falling rafters or
other pieces of loose woodwork. We
understand that one Of the officials OF
Storey county who has been in con-
tinuous investigation into the mat
| ter, believes this theory to he the cor
rect one, and that the Coroner who held
the inquest is also inclined to accept 1t
is more likely to be the true theory
than that the old people were muir
dered. The closest investl CATION has
revealed no inducing cause for such
crime, or rather double crime, as the
victims were not known to have any
enemies, and it is believed had no
money or other valuables in the house
to benefit the cupidity of persons capable
of murder They could not have had
much money in hand at that time, and
even had there been much coin in the
house on the day ef the murder, they
would in all probability have deposited
it in bank during their visit to town a
few hours before the tragedy occurred

PUBLIC DUTY.

er by remaining at home on cleo
ton day or by casting their ballot
for a Republican candidate.
What is to gain by the election
of IA Republican candidate? Read
the records of the present Republi
can Congress during the months of
June aid July last. You will tiud
there
First. A Republican Senate in
Producing IA resolution to reduce
the Tariff on sugar % per cent.
Republican Senators alone spoke
for and advocated it's passage; Re
publicans alone voted for its pas
sage.
Democrats voted against the re
solution unanimously, aud it was
defeated only by the votes Of three
Radical Senators, Hoar, Ingals
and Kellogg.
Second. \ Republican Senator
Introducing a proviso in the River
aud Harbor appropriation Bill, pro
hibiring the payment Of one dollar
Of that appropriation for the re
building Of Levees on the Mlssiss
ippi river. 1t was advocated and
voted for by a large majority Of Re
publican Senators, and voted down
10y a majority principally of Demo
cratic Senators.
Third. A Republican House of
Representatives unseating eight Or
ten Democrats in the House and
giving their seats to meE who were
never elected by the people, and
that, too. by means SO corrupt and
shameful tn t the Chairman of the
Committee on Elections, Calkins
of Indiana, a Republican, publicly
stated in the House, that he could
never serve on such a committee
again, because the deeds of that
committee in those contested seats
were so shameful that it made him
blush every time that he thought
of it.
To What party a we look for
the greatest aid and assistance in
the promotion of Southern inter
ests?
The Republican Party is commit
ted by its votes to reduce the Tariff
on Sugar; Il majority of that party
is committed to the denial Of money
to rebuild the broken leyees OF the
Mississippi river; it is committed
to the policy OF maintaining its ma
joTity III defiance OF law, justice,
and right, by the unseatin. OF mem
bers Of Congress elected honestly
and fairly by the people.
The SENTINEL is aware that
either OF the Radical candidates
would vote with the Democrats so
far as the Sugar and Levee ques
tions are concerned. But in every
other instance they would vote the
Radical ticket in all of its infamies,
its wrongs and its Injustice.
On the other hand Mr.. Acklen
always has stood by the Democrat
ic party in its measures for the pro
motion of the public interests. He
has done more for public improve
ments in this Congressional Dis
trict than any other man has ever
done.
In Congress he has been untiring,
indefatigable, and p~erseve1ing, in
promoting the interests of his con
s%tituents. These are facts that no
man, who is at all acquainted with
the subject, will deny. Mr.. Acklen
will vote for a Democratic Speaker
in the next Congress. Beattie nor
Kellogg will do SO.
Acklen will aid a Democratic
Congress in organising a system of
Government that will radonp1 tn

MASS MEETING AT RACE
LAND.

~ W 10 o'SS l."
Fl. Acklen, the Democratic nOmi
nee for Congress for the Third Dis
trict should address the voters at
Racelanl on the 18th. October, at
$50 p. NJ. But owing to the fact
that the meeting had not been
properly advertised, only a few
persons were present at the appoint
ed hour. Acting upon the sugges
ton of some very active and zeal
Gus Democrats of the locali it
was resolved that the meeting
should be held at six o'ocioch, aud
that meanwhile messengers should
be sent ont in different directions
to notify the people that a mass
meeting would be held at the Il. Il.
station in the evening.
Accordingly, at eve O'Clock,
there was gathered together a
crowd OF about two hundred 70
tiers. Considering that but a few
hours notice had been given and
that most of the planters in the vi
entity were very busily engaged
either in grinding or in making pre-
parations for grinding. and that
there was no brass band in attend
ance or any adventitions aid what
ever to attract listeners, the meet
ing may be pronounced a splendid
success.
The aSsemblace was not only
large but appreciative, and honor
ed the speakers with frequent sman
ltestations of their approval. The
meeting was very timely as it serv
ed to arouse the Democratic voters
from any apathy they might have
been laboring under in reference
to the vital questions at issue in
this campaign.
The tone of the speeches was very
conservative and the speakers adj
dressed themselves to the task of
convincing their hearers, abstain
ing from making appeals to their
passions.
1t is to be hoped that meetings
such as the II held ut Raceland
last Tuesday shall be convened at
different points iu the parish SD
that all the voters OF the parish af
filiating with the Democracy may
be stimulated and reused mp to the
Importance ofdoing their full duty
at the polls at the approaching
election.
The meeting was called to order
bt 4. l.. Winder, Esq, who propos
ed for President the name of Mr..
Z9phirin Fortt; for Vice PrcSi-
dents, Messrs. I. J.. Johnson, Mer-
vile Rome, Amadeo Lejeune, A.
Manson, Victor Knobloch, Oscar
Lepine, Simon Abraham, Chas. S.
Matthews, Alexandra Theriot, LIE
Yin Martin and several other gen
tlemen whose names We do not
now recall; and for secretaries,
Messrs. A. Ladreyt and j. L. Lo
whey Leblanc.
The first speaker was, Of course,
the Democratic nominee for Con
gress, Hon. Joseph II. Acklen who
held the attention of the audience
for about three quarters of an hour.
He discussed the tariff, avowing
himself a %staunch protectionist, and
advocated a liberal expenditure of
the public moneys for the purpose
of internal improvements. He re
ferred to his experience in Congress
during the two terms he represent
ed this District in that body, as
enabling him to care for the mate
rial interests of the people of this
Congressional District, in a more
Satisfactory and effective manner
than a person who had no acquain
lance with the details of legislative
work. He recalled with pride the
