BORN.
a CARD.
To the Voters Of Eureka County:

To the Voters Of Eureka County:
At the coming session of the State Legis-
lature the most important measure to come
up for consideration is the Lottery Bill,
which was passed at the last session. and
must this Winter be either ratified or re-
jected by the Legislative body.
In my opinion it is only right that before
the day of election the voters should know
how the candidates for the Assembly stand
ON this question, and, in order that there
may be no doubt as to my position, | take
this method of putting myself on record
before the people. 1t is my belief that
should the proposed lottery obtain q foot
hold in Nevada, it would be the most un-
fortunate thing that ever disgraced the
| State. Its existence within our borders
would be demoralizing and degrading, and
once allowed to become established it
would require years to drive it out.
With the immense profits which it would
derive from its nefarious business it could
and would make its influence felt in every
town and hamlet in the State. and no man
would dare venture to become a candidate
for any Office from Governor to Constable
without first obtaining the consent OF the
Lottery Company. Why! Because that
combination would understand that in
| order to insure its lease of life it would be
necessary to see to it that no men unfriend.
ly to it should be permitted to occupy any
| official position within the State.
I pledge my self, that if elected to the
Assembly, I viii not only vote against the
ratification of the Lottery bill, but that
will do everything within my power to &C
complish its defeat.

JOHN SHERMAN Is DEAD.

At Washington on Monday morn
ing, October %, John Sherman oil
Ohio passed away after q lingering
illness, his death being attributed &c
old age. Mr.. Sherman represented
Ohio in the United States Senate foi
a number of years. and also held
Cabinet positions under different adj
mi~nistrations. While his financial
views have been vigorously con-
demned in the West during past
years, yet this feeling will not be
carried beyond the grave. The re.
mains we're taken 10 the old home at
Mansfield. Ohio, where the interment
was made on Wednesday, the fune.
raj being attended by President Me-
Kinley. and prominent men from all
parts of the country.

As TO RAILROAD MATTERS.

The San Francisco Chronicle of q
recent date has a lengthy article
from its Chicago correspondent in
which it is alleged that Senator W.
A. CLARK is but a ~fgurehead in the
proposed Salt Lake and Los Ange-
les road, and that he intends turning
il over to the Southern Pacific. In
proof of this statement it is alleged
that Senator CLARK has twice before
built railroads in Nevada, and later
they passed into the hands of the
Southern Pacific. The two roads
which the Chronicles correspondent
credits Mr.. CLARK with building are
the Eureka & Palisade and the Vir-
ginia & Truckee, both of which. as
is we'll known, were built long years
ssfore Mr.. Clark's advent into the
financial world. and with neither Of
which was he connected in any way.
If the Chronicles suspicion re.
garding the future of the Los Ange-
les road il no more reliable than its
presentation of past history it may
be said to be unworthy of consider
alton.

A FEW DOUBTFUL STATS

Chairman Jones of the Democratic
National Committee, says there is no
doubt that Mr.. Bryan will carry New
York. He expresses the belief that
the Democrats have a better chance
of winning in Ohio than the Repub-
licans, and regards Illinois as an Z
tremely doubtful State. Cslifornis,
which has hitherto been given to the
Republicans in all estimates made
this year, is now claimed by the
Democratic State Central Committee
as certain to give her electoral votes
to Bryan. One of the reasons given
for this change of sentiment in that
State is the recent decision of Judge
Estee on the Chinese Exclusion Act.
in which he held thai q Chinaman at
any port in the United States, could
90 TO any other port. and. therefore,
q Chinaman in Hawaii could visit
any city in any part of the United
States, thus practically throwing the
door open to the free entry of China
men into this country. As a result
of this decision the people OF the
Pacific Coast States are wrought up
TO o high state of excitemen, tand it
is predicted that the voters will give
expression to their hostility to this
construction of the Law by casting
their ballots against Mckinley.
