TO THE DEMOCRATIC TOTERS
LINCOLN COUNTY.

Sam WeUTcc Announces ms CdGdt6GCi
for Sheriff.
Although | have great hesitation 10
announcing myself candidate for the
Office OF Sheriff OF Lincoln county, thus
early, | am compelled to do 80 on sccoun,
OF report that is being circulated that |
will not become candidate, which. il
allowed to remain undisputed, would al
low many OF my frien ls to pledge them
selves.
While considering the advissbility OF
making this race, have found but one
argument that is being circulated and
scattered broadcast among the voters
concerning myself and that is that "the
office has for some years past been held
by my father and my uncle, Mr. New
land"
The opposition tells you this is run
ming things in the family, and that /
should therefore be put down.
In answer to this wish to remind the
voters that one Of the gentlemen who is
opposing me has already been honored
by them eight years az jailer OF Lincoln
county and was also a candidate for the
office OF sheriff at the last election. The
other candidate is somewhat in my own
condition when relatives are brought in
TO consideration, as he for 10 wears had
in our county clerks Office a brother-in-
law and sister, who may be clsssed
among the best and most efficient Off
GERS the county has ever had No man
will ever lift his voice to condemn any
official act OF Col. John Blsin or his ex
cellent wife. II is not my object to say
one word in derogation OF either of them
and / have nothing to say OF them, save
to remind my fellow voters that they
were allowed to hold office free from OPP
position as long ss they desired, and they
deserved il.
Then looking upon this race in the
light OF the facts presented and from a
common sense standpoint, l can not see
why am Lees entitled to your considera.

from whom neither of us has reaped
any benefit save for season | was dep

ling under my father the other having
held office for eight years. II does seem
they should not make this issue and |
only mention it as it hss already been
made as a mighty fight against my be-
coming a candidate.
In presenting myself to the eonsidera-
ton OF the public, l do not hesitate to
point them to my past record ss Deputy
Sheriff. and ss a citizen. l sm now "a
years of age and feel that, should l be
honored by my fellowmen, that under

an honest way.

that confines me considerable portion
of my time, and should fail to see you

you will at least give me consideration,
and no one shall be prouder OF your

AS TO COAL.
Representative Loud Will Submit {
Few Figures of Importance.

:" - o4SS u ~Ai PO4 So41SS.
Washington, Dec. Representative
Loud of California will present to. the
committee on ways and means for its
consideration in the preparation of a
tariff bill a letter from a San Francisco
broker, giving the statistics of the i'm
portations of foreign anthracite coal at
that port.
The letter, MIR. Loud says, will cause
general surprise, and in his opinion
the statement il contains warrants
serious consideration from both a
revenue and a protection standpoint
From the letter il appears that in 1886
1926 tons were imported at San Fran
cisco. The importations increased
every year and in 1895 they amounted
to 50,S30 tons, while for the first II
months Of this year they have amount.
ed to 81 ,255 tons. From 1862 to 1854 the
duty on anthracite coal was so cents a
ton; from 1864 to 1870 it was 10 cents,
and since then it has been on the free
list, for the reason that the quantity
of anthracite coal produced outside the
United States was, prior to 1870, so
inferior that it was considered an alb
surdity TO retain it on the dutiable list,
thracite have been discovered near
Swansea, Wales-from which the CALI
fornia importations come-Canada,
Mexico and Tonquin, and the low price
of labor at some of those producing
sections, the letter SAYS. should make
protection a prudent measure.

against the Spanish authority was con-
tinued today. The attendance was
smaller than it was yesterday when the
trial commenced. but there We're
enough spectators present TO fill the
court room. The sitting was devoted
entirely to the speeches of the prose-
cutting attorney and counsel for the
defense. The former continued the
argument against the prisoner which
he oDened yesterday. and again in
sisted that the prisoners guilt had
been proved, and that he should be
sentenced to life Imprisonment. He de-
cried any Partially being shown the
prisoner on account of his being
Spaniard by birth. or because he was
an American citizen, and held that

HERMANN DIED POOR.
His Debts Will Far Exceed the As
sets of His Estate.

sets OF his Estate.
New York, Dec. 22-Ever since the
death of. Professor Hermann. the ma
gician, persons in and out of the the
atrical profession have been speculat-
ing as to the amount of the fortune he
left to his widow. Madame Adelaide
Hermann. 1t is known that the re-
ceipts of the tours for several years
have been enormous. reaching in some
instances as high as $4,000 in a single
season This fact led many to believe
that, despite his extravagant way of
living, he must have accumulated at
least a quarter of a million dollars.
Others, however, who were more inti-
mate with his affairs asserted that Re
saved very little.
1t will be a surprise though to al
most everybody to learn that when
Madame Hermann with her counsel,
Mr.. A H. Hummel, appeared before
Surrogate Weller yesterday and ap-
piled for letters of administration on
her late husbands estate. she declared
that the property left by the magician
was not worth more than S2.000-in
fact, that his debts would far exceed
the amount of the assets of his estate.
Professor Hermann lived IN to
every penny he earned during his life
time" said Mr.. Hummel last night.
He prOfted to the extent of $50. 600 to
$1,000 every season. but he was ex-
travagant and saved nothing. The
steam yacht Fra DiavolO. with its COM
plement of engineers. firemen, sailing
master, cook, etc, absorbed a small
fortune. He had a raft of carriages.
over a dozen horses and town house
and country house, rented, but fun of
servants
Mrs. Hermann has been left with
out anything. The life insurance is
hypothetical for moneys advanced to
Hermann. His magical apparatus is
intact and will be used by his nephew,
who is on his way TO America from
Paris to take up Herrmann's route
Professor Herrmarn's greatest
losses were in his purchase of Brook
Ign theatre; his attempt at manage
ment of the Broad street theatre Phil
adelphia. one season of which cost him
$50. 900. and his venture at what>is new
