A REPUBLICAN MEETING.
Harrington and Coffin Make
Speeches.

Messrs. L. S. Harrington and Tren-
mop Coffin, the Republican nominees
for Congressman and Supreme Judge
arrived here quite Unexpectedly last
Friday evening from Cherry Greek
They remained over the next day, in
vestigating the local political situation
and in the evening addressed public
meeting at Hips Hall. The room was
comfortably filed with an audience in
which all parties were represented and
also number of ladies. w. w. Wick
ham presided and about dozen prom
inent Republicans, besides the speakers
occupied seats about the Chair.
MIR. Coffin was the first speaker and
touched lightly on the various issues
of the campaign. He declared his be-
lief in the free coinage of silver, and
also of holding ON to the antages
which have come to the country thro'
the Spanish war and the protective
tariff. He claimed that Bryan and the
Democrats had given silver back seat
and for that reason he believed that
the interests of Nevada would be best
promoted through the Republican par
ty. Mr.. Coffin paid a generous tribute
to the character of his opponent, Judge
Fitzgerald, and ended with graceful
introd uction of the Congressional can
didate, Mr. Harrington, whose address
lasted for an hour.
Mr.. Harrington first gave his atten-
tion to the motto adopted in the Re
publican platform, "Nevadans for Ne
vada," and discoursed thereon at some
/ length. He declared that Nevada
should be held sacred to Nevadans and
that the Democrats ought to declare
/ for "Home Rule in Nevada as well as
in the Philippines. He said that the
time had come to put a stop to the
name of "Rotten Borough" and the
policy that has shut the door in the
i face of Neyada's ambitious young men.
He then turned his attention to the
record of Mr.. Newlands, his opponent,
and made use of good deal oil sarcasm
at that gentleman 5 expense. The most
OF the facts produced, however, were
familiar to the audience, having beel
used by Mr.. Wren two years ago Mr..
Harrington dismissed the charges tha
have been made by the press that he Is
Il tool of G. c. Wallace with the state
ment that he had been paid by the rail
road for all services that he renderee
that corporation and that he is no
seeking Office to degrade himself, bu
for the honor there is in it. He thel
accused his opponent OF having beei
allied with the railroad forces prior u
, the Senatorial contest OF two years age
Mr.. Harrington declared himself t
be in favor of the reconciliation of sil

TWO NARROW ESCAPES.
BENZ. Strandman Nearly Killed
in a Runaway.

A runaway occurred on Main street
last Tuesday afternoon which nearly
cost Benz. Strandman his life. In com
pany with several other gentlemen he
had driven up to Graham's store and
alighted, setting the brake and wrap
ping the lines about the lever, as he
was in the habit of doing, He had
hardly turned away from the wagon,
however, when the horse made lunge
and started TO run up the street. Be-
ing unable to reach the lines, Mr..
Strandman jumped into the back end
Of the wagon and started TO climb over
the seat to where they were fastened.
The seat gave away and while he was
still scrambling to get over it the horse
dashed into the alleyway between the
Ely Hotel and the old Davis building.
The wagon collided with the corner of
Munro's corral and was completely
overturned, throwing its occupant at
least 20 feet.
Help arrived on the scene almost i'm
mediately and the injured man was
found lying on his face and apparently
lifeless. The doctor was among the
first arrivals and applied restoratiyes,
but it was several minutes before any
sign of life appeared and he remained
unconscious for IA couple OF hours, toss
ing and groaning with pain. His in
juries are confined to a badly strained
shoulder and side and while very pain
ful, they are not as serious as was at
first feared. He was resting easily yes

himself to vote for any measure favor
able to silver that might be introduced
in Congress- should he be elected, He
closed with brief discussion of the
other national issues, declared the Porto
Rican tariff bill to be the most beneh-
cent act ever passed by Congress aud
finished by scoring Bryan and Demo-
Gratis in Congress on their attitude in
the Philippine question.
The speech was an able presentation
of the Republican side of the case and
the speaker was frequently applauded
by the members of his party who were
present.
The gentlemen departed on Sunday
morning for Lincoln county, via Osce-
ola, and will speak in every town oil

THE CANDIDATES..
Six New Aspirants for Office in
the Field.

The political pot in this county has
been simmering for long time, but
has at last struck a boil. Candidates
for the various county offices have been
waiting 10 see whether county conyen-
tions would be held by any OF the par
ties. aud when It became evident last
week that the time had passed for call
ing primaries, petitions began to float
around thicker than black birds in a
corn field. Six now announcements
appear In this issue and the end is not
yet.
For the Office of Assemblyman, three
aspirants have entered the field. Oh

Legislature two years ago and served
his constituents faithfully. Mr.. Pau

oughly at heart and, II elected, will Gu

No less can be said of the other two
contestants G. A. Walker has served
the county for tvy years as District
Attorney aud his record is familiar to
all. In seeking for the wider field of
usefulness he has the support of many
friends.
Col. Jos. Grandelmyer, the third
candidate, is AN old and we'll known
resident OF the county. He was defeat
ed by Mr.. Paul two years ago but was
not in the least discouraged thereby
and hopes for more favorable verdict
from the voters this time. 1t is Il

The contest for the Sherifr's office
also is further complicated by the en-
trance Of w. Il. Bassett into the race.
Mr. Bassett served the county as Sher-
in for four years from 1888 to 1892, since
which time he has been out of politics.
He has IL wide circle of friends and will
make a hard fight for the position.
M. B. Garaghan, who has announced
himself as candidate for Auditor and
Recorder, has already served the eoun
ty in that capacity for II number o
years and has proven himself TO be

Jas. 0stereard Suffers Severe
Injuries.

Hardly had the excitement from the
Strandman accident subsided when
another runaway occurred which also
barely missed fatal termination. As
Jas. Ostergard and Al Marshall were
driving home from their work up the
canyon, the front axle of their buggy
broke just as they were passing Bird S
lumber yard. The horse started to
kick and run and Mr.. Marshall jumped
out safely, but Mr.. Ostergard was
thrown headlong. He sustained two
bad scalp wounds which required sew
eral stitches to close up and yesterday
was nursing very sore head.
The horse continued to run down the
street, dragging the broken buggy,
and was caught in front of Graham S
store, whore it narrowly missed jump
ing through one of the show-windows.

A vast funeral pyre was made
last night of the wrecked cars and
splintered ties and the carcasses OF
most of the dead animals were in
cinerated and those that were not
thus disposed of were buried.
The wreck train and crew remain
ed here last night and resumed
work this morning. The tender
that was wrecked was raised and
placed on a fat-car this morning
for transportation to the repair
shops.
1t is thought that two or three
days more will be required to re
move all OF tie debris and get the
trucks and other serYiceable re-
mains loaded on cars.
The big engine, No. 924, that was
pulling the wrecked train, is
dead on a switch here, having
been pulled in last evening.

Death in the Wreck.

Just as we go to press the word
comes that the wrecking crew have
found the body of human being
buried beneath an avalanche of
debris. 1t is generally believed to
be the body of Alfred Coffee, aged
II years, who was known to have
been on the train and who has
been missing since that time.
