Official Canvass.

On last Monday the County Com mis-
sioners met as q Board Of CAnvassers. and
proceeded to canvass the election returns.
Some discussion was had as TO the pro-
priety OF ~canvsssing the returns for
County Commissioners and Assemblymen
without the presence OF the District
Judge. but it was finally decided that the
amendment Of 1889 to the general election
law modified the requirements OF the old
Law relating to the duties Of the Commits
sioners. and the work then went on
smoothly without further incident.
The result OF the official canvass will be
found in tsbulated form In this issue OF
the SENTINEL. Some little stir has been
made during the week. and one or two Of
the elected candidates are still on the
anxious seat. owing to the fact that dame
rumor saith that contests will be made In
the cases OF Sheriff and AssemblymeH.
Application was made by Robert Raftice
on Wednesday for . recouut Of the vote
cast for Assemblyman. the difference be-
tween Raitioe and Foster being but six
votes.
The Board will determine at its meeting
next Monday whether or not a recount
shall be had.

Rookh, in order to voice its opinion Of the
Republican goldbugs Of California:
o, for q tongue to curse the slave
Whose treason. like . deadly blight,
Comes DER the connsels Of the brave,
And blasts them in their hour of might
May life's unblessed cup for him
Be drugged with treacheries to the brim,
With hopes that but allure to hy.
With joys that vanish while he sips,
Like Desd-Ssa fruits that tempt the eye.
But turn to ashes on the lips!

The Carson Appeal says; The above
may be quite q sufficient fit for the case in

The Elko Roller Mills is an enterprise

capacity of rs barrels every "a hours.
The mill was placed and put up by Mr..

to learn TO read. He has been at school

and the greatest efforts have been made
TO teach him what various combinations
of letters spell, but in spite Of persistent
and laborious training he can only with
difficulty make out words of one syllable.
All his life he has been a bright, intelli-
gent boy, quick at games of all sorts,
and in no way inferior to others of his
age His name is Percy, but he seldom
succeeds in placing the five letters COM
posing it in their correct order, and even
when he has done so, five minutes later
he is uncertain what they represent.
With arithmetic and algebra he finds no
difficulty whatever, but printed or or written ten
words have no meaning for him. The
who has taught him for
some years, says he would be the smart

age this unfortunate boy would probably
