The Contemplated Purchase of the sentine

The Contemplated Purchase of the Sentinel.
The negotiations for the purchase of the
Sentinel by W. j. Craig have not yet been con-
summated, has been indirectly stated, but there
is now hardly any doubt that the transfer will
be made. as the parties have about agreed upon
terms The matter has not yet assumed def
mite shape. but it is understood that Mr.. Shoe
maker has made a proposition which Mr. Craig
is disposed to accept, and the papers for the
transfer will probably be prepared in day or
two. Mr. Craig was in the city yesterday, and
left last night for Cincinnati, but will return to-
day. If the purchase is made he will be the
sole proprietor. There has been no attempt
to organize syndicate. Mr.. Craig will, it is un-
derstood make general changes in the paper if
he buys it. He has had considerable experience
in the management Of large enterprises, and has
had something to do with newspapers.

other thing that should be remembered
upon ner own people for patronage. A simple
display of machinery and exhibits of the ordi-
nary products of manufacturers will not answer.
There must be other and varying attractions like
art exhibitions, floral displays and number of
attractions in keeping with these. Without
them the show soon becomes monotonous and
the people won't come. In Cincinnati the same
people are at its exposition every night, because
the show is always new and instructive. He
said Tomlinson Hall was not suited-that is the
ground foor-for machinery. 1t is too compact
and the floor is too low. Besides he did not
think the city authorities would allow the neces-
sary shafting to be put in place as the building
was not erected for the purposes Of machinery.
The first thing to do, however was to have the
views of merchants. Then a guarantee fund
should be raised This would give the enter
prise the requisite financial backing. In answer
to Mr.. Bamberger he said the Cincinnati exposi-

Ben Butler says there is no room for
a third party. The TINES agrees with
him and also wishes to state that there
is no room for a third party in this
county. OF late whisperings have been
going on that an Independent party
would carry everything in Lyon. Re-
publicans are cautioned TO be on the
lookout for this move as it means troub-
lie and the working Of a few RePubli-

FAIR a CANDIDATE.

Sure enough Fair is a candidate for
Heaven, what cheek When his span.
iel fawning adherents said that Fair
would ask the people 10 send him back
to the Senate we regarded it as huge
joke, superlalve nonsense, an imPeach-
ment OF our common sense. Will won
ders never cease? What has he done
for the past six year as Nevada's repre-
sentative? Nothing. No, we are mis-
taken, he has done something. He has
allowed the Democratic administration
10 cut off our mail facilities and now
claims credit because he has had one or
two Of these routes re established. He
has allowed the doors of the Carson
Mint to be closed, and now asks TO be
pa,ted on the back because he says he
is trying TO get them re-opened. He
has sat by with open ears but closed
mouth while our enemies in Congress
have led the onslaught against silver.
Not one finger has he raised, not one
word has he uttered TO help our leading
industry and to improve the condition
of the Nevada miner. He is a large
holder OF u. S. bonds, and his whole
legislative course is in evidence that
his sympaties are with the bondholder
and not with the Nevada miner whose
suffrage he asks. Not one speech, not
one act entities him to so much as re.
spect. Now, when he might do the
State some service, he leaves his seat in
the Senate and comes to San Francisco
TO look after his railroad interests and
to ascertain where he should place his
half million to secure his reelection.
The name OF Fair IN the U. S. Senate
is by-word anG reproach. But he
announces that he has half million to
give in payment for certificate Of re
election. The Democrats say this
makes him available. Well, how does
he propose TO use his half million?
Mackay, Jones, the Sharon estate, Stew
enson and the Cooks control the mines
of Storey county. Does he expect to
buy these men? Foley, Wren, Wallace
and the Eureka Con are the power in
Eureka county; Allen G. Curtiss in
Lander; Powning and Boardman in
Washoe; Yeringlon, Bliss, Toby, Lee,
Wright and the Anti Chinese League IN
Ormsby. Does Fair expect to divide
his little half million among these hon
orable gentlemen? Mackay, Jones and
Sharon alone can beat him in Storey.
Beaten there his death knell is sounded.
VIII these men prove traitors to the
Republican cause? They are too hon
orable for that; this theory is wrong
Are these acknowledged leaders now
lying to the Republican party? Should

Ell we would not believe it. We know

Freezing AT His Post.
4 BOY FATALLY INJURED AT THB WHEEL OF A


A sailor lad named johnson, who now lies diving
at New Buffalo. Mich, manfuly stood at the
wheel of the schooner Scul, up to his waist In
water all the time and half drowned by every
wave that struck the vessel while the services OF
the crew were required elsewhere.
John Edwards, one OF the crew, says: "The
night grew colder every minute, and ice accumu-
lated on the decks and gear SO fast that feared
we would be water-logged. At 10 D. m. we sent
young johnson to the wheel, while the captain
and the rest or US went at work to get another
reef In the fOresai thinking that IL we shortened
sail more we could hold on until daylight. When
We got through 1 was the only man who could
move, though my clothes were frozen stiff. The
captain was nothing but big fcicle, and his
clothes were frozen so Solidly that he could not
move STEP With great difficulty managed To
drag him into the galley, and laid him down along
side the fire to thaw out, and then dragged the
other two men aft and Laid them beside him.
Then crawled to the boy at the wheel and found
that though he could use his arms to steer he
couldn't move his legs. Poor fellow, he had TO
stand In that little box, more than half the time
up to his waist ia water. He asked me i'm pitiful
way TO take him below, and did IL, and then took
the wheel myself. Lett alone concluded that
the wheel hard up turned her round. on Thurs
day morning we FETCHED up on the beach at New
Buffalo, going up high and dry. When we got
ashore the captain and others had recovered some
from their long exposure, but johnson is dying"
