A Tragedy nj Cortex.

AUSTIN, New, Nov. 10.-News has
just reached here concerning the partic-
ulars of a tragedy at Cortez 80 miles
from here, brought by Deputy Sheriff
A. J. Highly and Amos Corbett.
Davis Satanic, an Italian, shot Rich
ard Holt Wednesday evening in the
stomach, inhicting a mortal wound,
the latter dying in "a hours. His dy-
ing request was that he should get
justice, and the Court should hang his
murderer. Sabanio shot Holt because
he could not get the loan of money.
Parties took the murderer near the
Cortez mill and lynched him by
throwing a rope over the limb Of a
tree and hosting him by the neck.
The Deputy Sheriff found his body
tied to a bed-post at his boarding
house. The men said he must have
committed s,,icide. The knot was UNI
der his left ear and the rope had cut
into the flesh. Coroner Joseph Moss
left here last night to hold an inquest.
Holt had a good reputation and was
generally liked. Sabanio was Only %
years old with an unsavory reputation,
having been in a number Of shooting
scrapes, and was run off a ranch lately
by a rancher with a Winchester rifle.

JUDGE SEA WE'LL STRIKES 1T
a

The Walker Lake Bulletin says: "On
Wednesday last a rich strike was made
in the tunnel of the Antelope mine at Au-
rora, about l56 feet from the bottom OF
the Wine. and in the neighborhood Of 300
feet from the surface. The ore body is
about three feet wide. 1t is contiguous
to the Young America, from which ST.
900, 900 was taken out in the palmy days
of that camp. The Antelope is under
lease to the Silver Hill Mill Company.
The ore will assay $500 to $500 per ton,
and is undoubtedly 9 big thing for Au.
rora."
Hon. VIM. NJ. Seawell, the late Demo-
cratic candidate for Supreme Judge, owns
a third interest in the Antelope mine. He
had been expecting to tap the ledge for a
month back. We may sincerely congrat-
ulate him on his good fortune. He often
said to us during the campaign that he
would rather strike a bonanza in the An
telope than TO be Judge. We hoped that
he might succeed in both directions. And
so he may. He has got the mine. and at
latest accounts he was only sixty-6ve
behind in the count for Judge. He richly
merits any amount of good luck that Is
likely to fall to mortals here below. There
is no better man in all this world than

Vote,

Harrison's plurality in California
over Cleveland will be about 5000.
Commenting on the situation the Ex-
aminer pungently remarks as follows:
"The meaning of this event is that we
are living in a new State. The old
California has disappeared. The
Eastern migration has annexed US to
the Atlantic. The consideration that
swayed Ca~lifornians a few years ago
are powerless now. The Chinese
question is dead. The railroad ques-
ton excites no interest.
There are new people among us,
and instead of our assimilatlng them
they are assimilating US. Very well.
One element or the other must yield,
and the old Californians are plainly
the more pliable. Let us adapt our
selves to the new conditions. There
are many things about them that
should give us satisfaction. For one
thing, they will make us wake up.
The self-satisfied Front street merch-
ant, sitting in languid dignity by his
front door while he waits for people e
beg HIM to accept their trade, will
have to get to work. The members oil
the "one-lunged contingent have
some exceedingly unsatisfactory
political prejudices, but they know all
about business"
