Lostine May Enter
County Seat Race

There has been considerable quiet
talk lately among the residents of Los
tine and vicinity about making try
to have the county seat located at this
place In the event OF the removal agita-
tors being successful in bringing the
matter to vote at the next June
election.
This place is not only near the geo
graphical center OF the o. untys but is
also much nearer the center Of popula-
tion than either Enterprise or Wal
Iowa, The roads leading to Lostine
from all directions are of the best in
the county, and are roads over which
/ heavy loads can be hauled at any
season OF the year.
Residents of the county and travel
ers from distance all agree that we
have the most beautiful town site in
the county: We are neither built on
an alkali bed like Enterprise nor
wedged into a crevice in the rocks
like Wallowa, but are in the midst OF
one Of the most beautiful and fertile
spots in the county, If not in the
whole state. The residents Of the
northern part of the county can reach
this town by roads which are shorter
and better than those leading to either
the present county seat or the would
oe county seat down in the corner.
In the event OF this town entering
the race next June it. will get the
support OF almost every voter in the
northern part of the county, which
with the voters OF the Leap country

What an Elko Man Says.

One of Elko's citizens, who has just
returned from a trip to the western
part of the State, remarked to the
writer this forenoon that Elko was
the only dead town on the Zine of the
railroad. Lovelock, Wiunemucca,
Golconda and Battle Mountain were
booming. Mining men with money
to invest were visiting these towns
and the mining districts adjacent to
them. He thought the people OF
Elko should do something to attract
the attention of capitalists to the min
eral our of the northern part of
the county and take steps toward
building a railroad from Elko to that
section. Unless something Of this
kind was done, he thought Elko
would remain as it is for four or five
years. These are matters of great inn
portance 70 every property holder in
this town. It's people should wake up
before the golden opportunity passes
by.-lndependent.

Struck BY Train.

Three Cinnamon were injured, one
fatally, by being struck by first No. 3
at Farrell, a small siding east of Bat
tie Mountain, last Friday afternoon.
These Cinnamon in company with
several more who wero employed on
the section, were riding on "A handcar.
They saw the train coming for some
distance behind them but did not
seem to be in any hurry to leave the
track and the train came down npon
them in a second hitting the handcar
and seriously injuring the celestials,
besides demolishing the handcar.
They were picked up and taken to the
railroad hospital at Sacramento. As
soon as they were put on the train at
Farrell, DIR. G. III. Splice, who was on
the same train, took care of them and
attended to their wants on the way
to Sacramento. One of the China
men died before the train reached
Sparks. The leg of one patient was
fractured, the shoulder of another was
broken and he received injuries about
the chest aud the third had a bad
fracture OF the skull.

Fire at Carlln.

Between 2:30 and 3 O'Clock Monday
afternoon, the Railroad hotel at Car
lin was discovered to be on fire.
When first seen, the flames had burst
through the roof near the northeast
corner of the building. The alarm
WAS given by the railroad whistle and
soon there was a large crowd at the
scene. The switch engine came along
with a line of hose and soon had "A
stream of water Oh the fire. Two or
three more streams were soon playing
ON the burning hotel and adjoining
property.
The origin of the fire is not known.
The fire had gained such Roadway
when first seen that it was impossible
to save anything from the upper story.
A man sleeping in one of the rooms
barely escaped in his night clothes.
The only personal property saved
from the building was the barroom
fixtures, slot machine, ice chest and a
few chairs from the dining-room. The
building and remainder of the fur
nishings were soon destroyed.
The fire occurred just after No. 3
had pulled out and the employees were
busy clearing up the lunch counter
and attending to other duties. None
of them were upstairs.
The hotel was a two-story frame
building owned by w. L. Linebarger.
1t was dry as finder and soon burned
to the ground. The loss is estimated
at between $1,000 and $4,000.
At one time it seemed that the post
Office. across the street west of the no.
tel, would burn, but several streams
of water were played on it and it was
saved. The library building was in
no danger at any time.
Mr.. Isola's two story brick building
saved the business part of town from
total destruction. III that had burn
I'D, nothing could have saved the bus
iness block.
Mr.. Linebargei is undecided as to
whether he will rebuild again or not.

The heavy rains have played havoc
with the railroad west OF Reno. The
bridge acros the Truckee river at

make a passage for the water. The

is said to have been covered With sev-
ersi feet OF water.

EAGLES SEEK ROOMS. NOT SUCCESSFUL YET. The Task Not an Easy One Treasurer Conlin
 Opens an Office.

So far as could be learned last night the Eagles have not succeeded in obtaining new quarters In which to hold their meetings. An influential member was asked about 1t last night but he refused to say anything what ever. The Eagles are busy order and they cannot be without rooms for a very long time. But the task of secur- ing rooms large enough and well sit- uated enough for their purposes is no easy matter.
 A well founded report has 1t that the Eagles are contemplating suit against the railroad company. The members of the order hold that the dangerous con dition of the building was brought about by the excavations carried on by the company and that therefore the company should be made responsible for the inconvenience that has been caused them.
 When the company attempted to buy out the Eagles two years ago, the lat ter asked $30,000 for their lease. The railroad company refused and the ex- cavating operations were carried on on all sides of the building resulting in the present condition.
 The building was leased for a period of ten years and the lease has yet six years to run.
 Peter J. Conlin the financial secretary of the order announces that he has opened an office for the payment of dues in Charles PetrellPs cigar store, 737 Chapel street. His office hours are from 7:SO to 9:30 p. m. Saturday even> ings and from ? to p. m. Sunday af ternoons.
 Another member of the order was seen by reporter of the Journal and Courier late last evening and was asked concerning the plans of the aerle. He said that all the members of the perie were under pledge not to say anything about contemplated move ments. He stated that all information must come from Judge Zacher of Branford, their counsel.
 He said that the reports that the railroad company had made any offers of settlement to the Eagles either re- gently or two years ago had no founda- ton in fact.
 The next meeting of the aerie will be held on Sunday, May IA A temporary meeting place will be obtained but none has been arranged for up to this time.
