Repubucan Convention.

The Republican State Convention of
Nevada met at Carson yesterday, and got
through its work Of nominating in short
order, each candidate. 80 our information
is. getting q unanimous vote. Hon.
William Woodburn was nominated for
Congress; Hon. T. P. Hawley for Supreme
Judge; and Mr.. Derby of Storey county,
Davis Of Humboldt and Thompson Camp
bell OF Lincoln, for Presidential Electors.
Hon. Thomas Wren was Chairman of the
convention and Lew Doran Secretary. 1t
Is our opinion that the nominees for Con-
gress and Supreme Judge are strong,
probably the strongest the Republicans
could have made. As for the Electors
their personality Ia not involved. and their
popularity in the campaign will be only g
reflex Of that Of the Republican nominees
for President and Vice President. Mr..
Woodburn served one term in Congress
from this State, from IA to '76. defeating
his competitor. Col. A. @. Ellis. on the
Democratic ticket. We are not aware that
he did anything to distinguish himself in
the House, but we believe that his record
Is considered acceptable and good. Justice
Hawley is now serving out his second
term of six years as a Judge of the Su-
preme Court of the State. He is gen.
orally regarded by the members Of the Ne
vada bar as 9 fair lawyer and q good
Judge; but In neither respect ID hs con.

the Democratic nominee, Judge SeWeil.

election-which may seriously handicap
him in the race.

Embargo ON American Cattle

OTTAWA, Sept. 4.-Dr. McEuchran. In
specter of the Dominion Cattle Quarantine,
had an interview with the Minister OF Ag-
riculture to-day, to urge that a complete
system Of quarintine be enforced to pre-
vent the importation Of diseased cattle
from the United States into Canada North
west. He maintains that nothing but an.
absolute embargo against American cattle
will prevent the introduction Of pleuro-
pneumonia among Canadian cattle. The
Minister promised that the question would
be tskeu up by the Government at once.

THE SUGGESTED STATE SHOW
Some symptoms of stamina in the State
Exposition scheme are manifesting
themselves. The State Board Of Agri.
culture sat a day or two on the subject,
but seemed somewhat slow in saving
what it would do. Finally. the usual
plan of putting the big pot into a little
one, By leaving the matter to a sub
committee was adopted. There is, how.
ever, not much doubt that if the requis.
lite amount OF private stock can be rails.
ed, the State viii give a liberal support.
Indeed it has been remarked more than
once by friend. Of the Department that
a big exposition would be its chief secu.
rity against adjustment next winter

companies by laying an Internal Reve-
nue. tax of $4,000 (Which only a few big
companies can afford to pay,) being no
longer popular in this day of clamor for
free whiskey. and such like. WE'LL
after the board-meeting, the next step
was to raise the necessary s25, 900 OF
private stock. 4 committee has been
at work for several day. and are making
considerable progress, shaving already

Shocking Story from the Sea.

Martha's Vineyard, Mass, is q popular
resort in the heated summer; but the
breezes which are a delight 10 July, be-
come q terror 10 January. One day last
week a large steamer sailed proudly out
of Boston harbor, with flags flying, and
the ~handkerchiefs of scores of passengers
waving adieu1 to friends on the wharves.
1t was the City Of Columbus. bound for
Savannah, Ga, under command of Capt
Wright He is nov a raving maniac, the
vessel lies at bottom of the sea, aud more
than one hundred lives persisted with
her!
The story runs thus. The extreme
cold drove everybody into the cabins, ex-
cept the officer, upon whom all trusted.
He grew chilly, and left the wheel. to go
and warm his hands at the smoke-pipes I;
the vessel veered out of her true course,
and soon ran upon a long reef. or ledge
Of rocks, which juts out from the shore at
Gays Head, not far from New Bedford.
Gays Head is one Of the three places in
thi. country where amber i. gathered to
make pipes, etc. II will hencefor,h bet
ter deserve the name of Deaths Head.
The huge vessel struck its PROV on the
reef, and Instantly sank at the rear,
drowning scores of the passengers as they
lay asleep in their cabins. Among them
we're some prominent persons: Editor
Merton, of Boston Globe, Rev. DR.. Rand,
withthis father, mother, wife and daugh.
ter, Frederick Sargent, and many others,
ll6 altogether
