BANG! BANG!
The First Gun of the Battle is
Touched OFF.

The first gun of the campaign of
1890 was fired in Hawthorne last
Thursday night by the Republican
party.
According 10 advertised announce.
ment, there was a mass meeting. Owing
10 the sudden illness of Jas. a.
Stephens, Mr.. Sardis Summerfeld of
Carson was obliged to pack his grip at
a moments notice and accompany the
Candidates. However, he made a
pleasing and impressive speech. He
briefly reviewed the political issues of
the day and gave short resume OF the
candidates on the State ticket.
r. X. Colcord was introduced and
spoke lersely AS TO the course he would
pursue il elected Pledged himself to
do his utmost 10 further the mining
interests by advocating liberal mining
ton of arid lands and the storage of
water for irrigation.
Mr.. Colcord said that he has always
been a Republican, and that he never
voted any other ticket in his life, his
first vote being cast for Abraham Lin
coin. He further said that ne was not
an orator and that he was not rich
man; hut though he was eomparatively
poor, there was no man on earth who
owned any portion of him, or who
could use him for any unjust purpose.
Mr.. Colcord was warmly applauded.
"Honest john Egan spoke few
words. Said he hoped to BE next
Treasurer, and that he would guard
the money as vig,lant officer should.
John E. Jones gave brief resume
of his labors while IN Office, and they
certainly entitle him to reelection.
With three cheers for the ticket the
first Republican meeting of the cam
palgn closed.
The party visited Aurora on Friday
and Candelaria on Saturday. P. M.
Bowler accompanied them as orator,
Mr.. Summerfield being Obliged to re.
turn TO Carson.

Col. Suth arland,s Arrest.

On Friday last an order OF arrest
was obtained against Colonel W j
Sutherland in the suit Of r. II. Judson
against him. The plaintiff swoie out
an order of arrest in the following
manner; "That the defendant is n
resident Of Candelaria, Nevada; that
he is temporarily in the City and
County of San Francisco, and intends
to return to Candelaua, Nevada, carry.
ing with him all his goods and effects,
Intending to dcfraud his creditors, par
iicularly the plaintiff" Judge Levy
decided the case against Judsou, on
the ground that the defendant had the
right to leave the State of California,
and carry with him all his goods and
valuables, and return to his home at
Candelaria. The defendant was dis.
charged upon the showing Of the
plaintiff, in the same affidavit upon
which plaintiffs attorney obtained The
order of arrest This rebuke from one
of the highest Courts in the State
ought to have good effect upon SINH
lar proceedings. The practice OF ar
rest has been greatly abused in this
and other States, and the Courts would
do well to watch the interests and
liberty Of the citizens, and protect
them from such oulrages.
There is no doubt that the arrest of
Mr.. Sutherland was black mailing
scheme, but he is too well known to
the mining men of San Francisco and
Nevada to be alarmed at such perse-
cutions. II Judson thought to frighten
Mr.. Sutherland into paying him money
rather than ventilate the matter in
Court, he made sad mistake. Nevada,
particularly Esmeralda county, is
proud to be called the home of W. J.
Sutherland, and regrets that she has
not many more citizens like him.

Why He Lost the Nomination.

A good story has leaked out on 2
candidate for nomination at the late
convention In consideration OF q
heavy bride received for our silence
we will not say which convention nor
office he was seeking. While out lay
ing wire to get the precinct delegations
enlisted in his favor, he stopped where
there was a popular schoolmarm. In
the miost of jolly social time they
were all enjoying, in aspiritof bravado
he caught the young lady and kissed
her. She FLUSHED but took the matter
good naturedly, but it proved, all the
same, to be an unfortunate affair for
the kisser. All the young men in the
precinc, heard of il, and every mothers
son Of them being in love with the
schoolmarm, they became outrageously
jealous and promptly set to work TO
defeat the young man who had the
tcmeriiy to poach upon what they con-
sidered their preserves. They fixed it
so that the convention sat down upon
him in the most peremptory manner.

The time for registration is rapidly
drawing to close. There is time
enough left for all who are not on the
register to have their names included i,
but it will rapidly slip away, and
before the laggards know it they will
be shut out. The last day of registra-
ton is the Goth of October, and il peo-
pie are careless, and keep putting off
his important duty, they will find
themselves too late. This is one Of
those duties which are very likely to

A Ripe Old Age.

j. H. Holcomb and wife, of Belcher-
vile, Texas, have celebrated their fifty
fifth wedding anniversary, and are
still hale and hearty. The secret Of
their long life and good heath is that
they correct any slight ailment prompt
ly, and in that way avoid 3 rious sick
ness. Like most every one else, they
are more frequently troubled with con-
stipation than any other physical dis
orders. To correct this they take st.
Patrick's Pills in preference to any
other, bccaIse, as Mr.. Holcomb says,
They are n mild pill and, besides,
keep the whole system IN good order.

Mining property in the Seven Devils
country is getting to be of so much
value, that shrewi operators are having
their location notices and transfer pa
pers recorded in Idaho county, as we'll
as in Washington county. The mines
are nominally in Washington county,
but the boundary lines are so poorly
specified that they may really belong
to Idaho county for all that the statute
organising Washington county shows to
the contrary. Our officials, however,
have never disputed Washington coun:
ty's possession thereof. and are not
likely to, but until new law to better
define the boundary line between the
counties is enacted, owners of valuable
property in that country would do we'll
to protect their own interests by having
their titles recorded in both counties.
Clerk Rhoads received last week two
deeds for record, one from K. B. Lock-
wood to Bernard Haas, of Salubria, and
another from Jacob Carnett to Mr.. Haas,
conveying to him 1000 feet in certain
mining properties in the Seven Devils
district. Mr.. Haas is an enterprising
citizen and merchant of Salubria. who
is fast acquiring extensive interests in
Washington county, which will make
him a millionaire when the boom
comes. He is an old reader Of the F.
of whom there are many among our
old time friends in Washington county.

The Red River Bedrock, Plume Enternr;s.

The Red River Bedrock, Flume Enterprise,
Deeds were filed with the county
clerk last week conveying from ID. C.
Calvin. of San Francisco, to E. A. Dri-
yer, of Riverside, Cook county, Illinois,
forty acres of placer mining ground on
the Red River meadows, in Elk CITY
mining district. The consideration ma
med in the deed is $1,000. Hon. l.. P.
Brown is also. of record as having sold
twenty acres in the same neighborhood
kto the same purchaser for the same
sum. A third deed shows another
transfer from Calvin to Driver of sixty
acres also for $1,000, which shows that
Mr.. Driver now controls 100 acres of
placer ground on those meadows. It
is very evident that the land was pur-
chased for the purpose and with the
Intention of inaugurating the bedrock
fiume enterprise to open and work the
Meadows. which has been talked of
for los thesa many years. Messrs. Dri-
yer and Calvin were both in the camp
during the season Just passed. Mr..
Calvin first investigated the scheme for
company of Chicago capitalists, and
Mr.. Driver followed later on the same
mission. 1t seems certain that the en-
terprise is in good way to be realised.
There will be whole lot of placer gold
come out of Elk City after awhile. The
camp only needs wagon road to boom
like wildfre. Let our legislators see to
it that law is passed providing for the
issue of bonds for such purposes by a
vote of the people. Such law is of
vastly more importance to Idaho county
than the election Of dozen partisan
senators.
