Queer Things in the Election

THE VOTERS of Churchill County beat Fitzpatrick, a member of
the last Legislature, because he voted against the Police Bill.
In Lander County they beat Simon Bray for the same reason.
The friends Of Preston and Smith in Goldfeld wanted Ole Elliott
running TO the Senate o N the Democratic ticket, to pledge himself to
work for the pardon of the imprisoned mel under penalty of losing
their votes He told them promptly to go to hell and a beaten in
consequence.
OBren was beaten a IS judge in Ne promptly ascribed his defeat
to Tom Hickey, whom he charges with spending abnormal u of
money tt compass his defeat. Such a thing is simply ridiculous and 10
n n that section takes any stock in the story. The members Of the
bar in that section all took a fall out of OBrien and the knowing
him.
L. l.. Hudson, a a absolutely ew in politics, got the highest
voteo OF the electoral ticket, which naturally gives him the right to
take the returns to Washington.
The Appeal extends its congratulations to Chairman somers Of IN
State Central Committee, whose careful attention to details brought
about the Democratic victory last Tuesday. The Tonopah convention
made no mistake when it placed the rains in his hands. The party has
% what organization will do and we might a well keep the machine
in running order for the next fight.
THE estimate made by the Democratic Central Commute at Reno
was that they had the State by $500. These figures werec carried out
by the vote for Newlands, which showed how carefully the Committee
mad poned the State.
ROOSEVELT carried Nevada by a majority of $500 and Bryan car
ried it by a majority of 500. The Democrats OF Nevada may Vel
congratulate themselves IN their work.

The Appeal believes that the only way that the amendments "a be
incorporated In the bill is or thu Legislature to men ana hen re-

Children Thrown Out of Bed
by Lightning.

Morganton, N. c., special iii
the Charlotte Observer: This
morning at 6 o'clock Lightning
struck an eight-room house be-
longing to Mr. Kirby, situated
about four miles from Morganton
on Johns river. and almost de-
molished it. The house was oc-
cupied by Mr.. Sidney Scott, who
has a large family, and the
strangest part of the incident
which seems almost incredible is
the fact that all of the family
were in bed in the house at the
time and none except the wife
was injured and she not serious

children were sleeping was torn

An Object lesson.

This has been going the rounds
OF the papers 1t breaches a pow
erfal sermon in few words:
Ten years ago an Allen County,
kas., farmer put his initials on a
dollar bill. The next day he went
to the nearest town and spent it
with merchant. Before the year
was out he got the dollar back.
Four times in six years the dol
lar came back to him for produce
and three times he heard of it in
the pockets of his neighbors.
The last time he got it back
five years ago. He sent it to a
mail order house. He has never
seen that dollar since, nor never
will. That dollar will never paw
any more school or road tax for
him, will never build nor bright
en- any Of the homes of the com.
munity. Hesent it entirely out
of the circle Of usefulness to him.

NeWsy Letter From Elgin--
Another Garden Spot"

Mr.. Editor:
1t has been some time since !
have attempted word f,ryour
very highly appreciated and val
liable sheet. This, the Elgin,
section is one of the garden spots
OF the county. 1t is being dis
covered that there is a farm about
lO inches below the old worn
one and some of our farmers are
utilizing that hitherto undiscov-
cred farm. Especially has our
new conner, Charles P. Caskey,
made developments on the place
recently bought and occupied by
him. 1t is said by the tenants
who have been on the place for
several years that the crop is the
best that has been on the place
for years. That newly discover
ed farm and get up and move on,
accounts for it all. Mr.. G. W.
Baker and Mr.. II. r. Small, two
OF Antioch's successful farmers,
spent the day with Mr.. Caskey
last week, looking over his farm
and mode of procedure in hold.
ing and building up a worn
farm.
Quite a crowd went to the river
last week, on a fishing expedi.
ton. They report a good time
and success-no candidates nor
drunken persons to disturb their
pleasures.
The people in these parts are
nearly done work and all have
very good crops, and they will
DO better when they get down
and utilize that hitherto undis-
covered farm below the one that
they are scratching over now.
The fruit crop is abundant
this year and our lady-folks are
making use of it in the way of
drying and preserving. Watermel
ons are beginning to ripen now.
The new preacher at Elgin
seems to be winning the affect.
ions OF his congregation.
The old comrades and friends
of Uncle John Hagins will be
pleased to learn that he is SEEM
ingly rapidly recovering from a
paralytic stroke, sustained some
days ago.
Some parties without the fear
of the law before their eyes did
maliciously poison Mr.. c. p.
Caskey's old Hagins mill pond
and killed quite lot of fine fish.
That was quite wrong and if the
parties who did the act are found
out they will be prosecuted to
the extent Of the law.

those eligible who did not understand

lawyer in Pennsylvania in practice does
