H. .1. Pratt, of Clover Valley, is a
candidate, for Assemblyman, on the Re
, publican ticket. Two y< us ago, in a
convention composed ->f 42 delegates,
Mr. Pratt received 22 votes on I'iie first 1
ballot, and wise iu reality the nominee
of the Convention. Por some reason,
probably through an oversight, he was
not declared fh"- nominee, and his name '
was afterwards withdrawn, am! O. P. ;
Crawford was nominated by acclama- j
tion. All ’hat can l** s. id against Mr. j
Pratt
whether for Sharon or not, the writer ;
does not know.
L. L. Rickard is announce*! ca a can
didate for re-* leetioA to the Office of
Assessor. I Airing his term of otliee the
assessable property in the county h«s
been materially increased, and more
taxes collected than ever lei fore. These
are facts which the piublh can as vrtaiu
by examining the araessmei.t rolls of '
the county.
J. K. Guthrie throws Iris beaver into
the ring ami announces that lie is a can
didate for Sheritf, subject to the *le
cision of the Republican County Con
vention. He is an old resident of Hum
boldt, and if elected wilt undofthtedly
perform the duties of the ofhoo faith

is unnecessary to expatiate on his qual

To ('Inb Officers and the Public*
Last Saturday, the Secretary of t!ie
Garfield and Arthur Club requested C.
S. Osborn, Jr., who is connected with
the Sn.vku Stati , to Lafeii notice in
serted in tin- paper, that a meeting of
the Club would i*» held that (Saturday)
evening. This priced to l>o a mistake
on the part of the Secretary, and many
members of the Club, who went to the
Hall, were disappointed. To prevent |
such mistakes n future, anil clear the
Kilvkk Statu of the suHtMcion that it
luteiuletl to mislead the memhers oi the
officers of all sAch organizations
are requested' to write plainly the time
at which such meetings are to be held,
when the notice is intended for publi
cation in these columns.

NOTES FROM THE CAPITAL.
What Is said about Babcock, Crockett and
Sharon.
Editor Shaker State; The politi
cians begin to cluster in Capitol Scyiare,
and knowing yon tak-e an interest in
their doings, I will give you an mkling
of what they say. The majority of
THE state OFFICERS
Are very unpopular. The conduct of
the Secretary of State hi the MkiFadden
case is severely criticised, and as it has
been thoroughly ventilated in the
Courts, and a verdict rendered against
the Secretary, there is no loop hole
through which Ire call escape the odi
um. The State Treasurer has also act
ed without warrant of law in taking the
State fund* to bolster up an institution
known as the IienoSavings Bank, when
he was Vico President of that concern,
and knew that it was shaky, as the
stockholders only put $30,OfX) in it, and
d-row out $±.">,(>00 in dividends and ex
penses. Mr. Crockett has always been
considered an honest man, hut this
transaction has shaken the confidence of
Ins friends, and the action of the State
Board of Examiners, in trying to white
wash him, has called out some very
harsh expressions from the public.
WILLIAM SHARON
Has been here, and it is generally un
derstood that he has placed the “sack”
ill the hands of a Mr. Strother and en
tered the field as a candidate for
United States Senator. T have ofteri
heard of the “check” of a Government i
mule, hut I think bis is harder than
the concentrated impudence of- all the
sons of jackasses the Government ever
owned. Sharon Was never an actual
resident of Nevada, lie was elected
Senator for six years, and in all that
(rime hat. not been sixty days in his
seat, and draws $30,000, or $300 per
day, which is very high Wages for such
services as he lias rendered the country.
I do not know of a man in Ormsby
county, outside of the Crooked Rail
road Ring, who favors his re-election to
the Senate; yet, should it so happen
that the ‘‘Ring” gets control of the
County Convention and pets up a
Sharon ticket, enough Republicans will
vote the Democratic Legislative ticket
t< elect it. There are Republicans,
and plenty of theft, too, in Ormsby
county who cannot be influenced by
Sharon’s sack, ami they will sea that
Ids tools, if they succeed in running the
Republican party, w ill make no votes
for bun by doing so. I hope every
Democratic County Convention in the
State will pledge the Legislative nomi
nees, in the event of t.aeir not having a
majority in the Legislature, to stand in
with the Republicans who oppose
Sharon, and elect a resident of
tiie State to represent i*> in the
United States Senate. It is also hoped,
by Anti Ring Republicans here, that in
counties where Sharon Republicans are
nominated for the Legislature, that de
cent Republicans will vote for the fteiti- ;
ocratic legislative' candidates. I know
'.lu; temper of fho Anti-Ring Republi
cans of Ormsby county, and 1 nrri satis
fied that if their plans arc carried out
Sharon w ill he beaten. It •« a shams
and a disgrace to a free people to think
of sending such x man as Sharon to the
United States Senate. Aside from his
being a nou resident of the State, he is
one of the vilest and foul-ftouthed of
men, ami applies the lowest billings
gate to those who do not obey his be- j
bests in everything. The writer of
this has heard him abuse, in the foulest
language, men who arc socially and in
u fitiefu'nily ki3 superiors.
Conf7I>kXce.
Circus Accompaniments.
A lot-of thieves came to town with
the circus, ami it is hoped accompanied
it w est. Several knew that roughs and
th’cves generally accompanied circuses,
and watched their premises in the even
ing. The thieves broke into K. Rein
hart’s rooms, on First street, and turned
everything topsy turvy in their burned
search for valuables. They stole a gold
watch worth ^'doO,' and several articles
of weaving apparel front Mr. Reinhart.
They mistook the parsonage for the res
idence of some Wealthy’ bachelor, and
rilled ltcv. Mr. Warrington’s trunk.
At Mr. Green’s residence they effected 1
an entrance through a window, ami
stole a watch and several articles of
jewelry. At Render's mill, which is
situated within a hundred yards of
where the circus tout was pitched, they
broke into tho sleeping room and awoke
Mr. Render, who caused them to beat
a hasty retreat, without getting any
spoils. •

Verdict of the Coroner's Jury.
