Candelaria, young man by the name ol
Charles Barlow being crushed to death in
the machinery. Just how the accident oc.
Cured no one seems to know. 1t is supposed
that young Barlow lost his balance and fell
against the revolving machinery. He was
horribly mutilated.
On the night of the 4th another accident
occurred at the last crossing on the Candle,
laria road as the train was nearing town

manageable and ran across the track. The
engine caught the sulky and smashed it te
fragments, but strange to say, Hill nor the
horse were hurt to amount to anything.

Windnilis.

We frequently notice in our exchanges
from the eastern part OF the State items about
some one having put up new windmill and
what great advantage it is to the ones who
own them. There is not a doubt in the
world that many of the ranchers in this coun-
ty would be greatly benefited had they such
a machine. There are many different styles
of mills, but we think that the "Queen, "
which is advertised in another column Of this
paper, is about as good machine as can be
purchased for the money. For particulars
about the machine address J. II. Hepworth,
Dayton.

For Commissioners.

]. M. Houston, Of Mason Valley, an
nounces himself this week as candidate for
long term Commissioner Of Lyon county.
Mr.. Houston has been one of our "Counly
Dads" for the past two years and the people
in his section Of the county seem to be very
we'll pleased with the way he has conducted
the business of the Office. He has always
looked out for the county business as if it
had been his own, and in fact has made one
of the best Commissioners the Valley ever
had. Should he receive the nomination,
which in all probability he will, there is not
doubt in the world that he will be elected.
We think the people Of the Valley cannot do
better than to re-elect him.

In another columa will be found the ad-
vertisement of the State Fair, to be held al
Reno next month. 1t is proposed to make
the Fair a greater success than ever this
year, and this being the case, Lyon county

,ises country SO thoroughly as Fair, and
Lyon county can put up as good display
as any county in the State.
