HIGHTsTOwN, Sept Sat about 120
o'clock yesterday morning Irving Norton
was opening his store when he felt jar
and shaking, followed by a rumbling as
ii the machinery in the shirt factory had
started, although it had not. Articles on
the shelves and counters jumped and
ratified, and some fell from their places.
At the same moment he noticed dis
lurbance outside the window, where the
wires of the Baltimore and Ohio enter,
and the instrument began sounding as If
the battery was on, whereas everything
was shut off and the operator had not
arrived.
Going to the window ne noticed that
the glass insulators had been broken,
and with the wooden supports that fas-
tened them to the wall had fallen from
their places. The atmosphere seemed
charged with electricity, and the sensa-
tons were the same as If he bad eXper-
fenced all electric shock. AT the same
time people in different parts of the town
heard a rumblng noise, and felt shake
or motion under them. All think there
was an earthquake. Flwood Eldridge, a
harness maker, heard It very distinctly,
and felt the house shake. Mr. Dalrymple,
photographer, also experienced the
shock, as did many others. Rosteen
Walton was awakened by shock and an
unusual noise. and jumped out of bed to
see what was she matter. Many others
had similar experience. The shock was
not so severe, however, as that felt here a
year ago.

WHY HE LOST.
The Silver State says:

The Silver State says:
1t seems that the miners o.
Storey, Eureka and Lander eoun
ties, who were supposed TO be
almost unanimous for Governor
Adams, did not give him the sup
port he expected, ard he was much
weaker IN the country than when
he run four years ago, having relied
mainly on the niRing towns, bis
defeat was inevitable when the
miners failed to rally to his stan
dard. Had Governor Adams
expected less of the Comstock
and Base Range, and more of the
country precincts, and not placed
his main reliance on class vote,
probably the result would have
been different. For some reason.
many of his s;aunchcst supporters
four years ago were indifferent as
to his success IN the campaign just
and counties which gave
him substantial majorities hereto
fore, relied up majorities against
him last Tuesday.

It's rich all through. The Sentinel
says:
Mr.. Cassidy dictates this article
aud is therefore responsible for the

Jewett Adams is defeated by 600
in the State.
If two men had died month ago
Cassidy would have been success
full. Fair and Wren both thought
they were running for Senator.
The people Of Nevada and the
hearts Of the State were for Cas-
sidy. Wren,h thinks heis running for
Senator. but he has 40 more chance
than the man in the moon. Stew
art is the next Senator from Ne
vada. We concede it. Carpet
Dagger though he be, every vote
for Wren was vote for Stewart.
Wren is the man who draws the
chestnuts out of TIE FIRE. We
would like to help Wren if We
could. He is surrounded by treach-
cry and does not know it. Every
dollar that came to Nevada or 10
Eureka county came from the
Central Pacific Office, ostensibly
for Mr.. Wren, butfor Stewart. Mr..
Wallace and Mr.. Foley are Stew
art men. The Stewart managers
in the Republican party are at
heart for Stewart. Mr., Wren will
be stood up and voted for by 10 or u
members of the LEGISLATURE as
though he had a chance to win, and
when the smart fellows ring the
bell they will all so for Stewart
Wren thinks he is running but he
is not. On the Goth of next Janu
airy Stewart will receive the com
mission as United States Senator.
Wren represented false issue
in this campaign; 50 did Fair.
Both had to die for a decent man
to WIN. If they had died month
ago Cassidy would have been Sea-
ator. While neither had them
selves a chance to win. Cassidy had
no show As the situation pre-
Sents, We are for Wren against
Stewart, but it is without hope.
Bill Stewart is the next Senator
from Nevada. 1t will cost him
some to silence certainlntere'ts and
factions, but he will win all the
same and be the next Senator.
