LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.
Personal Notes.
Lieutenant Governor Adams passed
tiers yesterday, on the way to his
ranch in Nye county.
Colonel Fair, candidate for United
States Senate, amt Colonel Curtis, a
Comstock mining man, passed through
yesterday on their way to (Jrantsville,
to look at some mines in that place.
Mr. Fair is more sociable than our Sen
ator from San Francisco, and he “set
'em up" for the hoys at the Arlington.
Many old Humboldters will remember
him as the man who superintended the
building of the Sheba mill at Star in
early days. He is a man of good ad
dress and personal appearance, and
will make friends by going around
among the people. He travels in no
special car like Sharon, and has no
Chinaman for a body servant.
Charles H. Stoddard arrived in town
again yesterday, from the eastern part
of the State. '1 he knowing ones inti
mate that he is canvassing in the inter
est of Sharon.

Angora Goats.
Some (UK) Angora goats were driven
by here yesterday on the way from Cali

to William Dunphy, of the well-known
cattle men, Dunphy 9c Hildreth. A
gentleman, named Bailey, has been en
gaged for several years in the business
of raising Angora goats, near Battle
Mountain, where they thrive and do
well. Their hair, which is almost as
fine .os silk, is very valuable;

Hancock Presidential Electors, and
General T. J. Clunio, of California, will

the reputation of being an able speaker.

down from Idaho, Saturday, bullion
valued at #7,’2Sl IK). It was from Ban
ner 1 istrict, near Idaho City.
THE SENATORIAL QUESTION,
What One Who Aspires to the Toga Says
About It.
Last Saturday evening Hon, Thomas
Wren, Republican candidate for United
States Senator, delivered an address in
Centennial Hall on the Senatorial ques
tion, and interspersed it with allusions
to national politics. Long before the
hour appointed for the meeting, a bon
fire blazed in front of the hall and
Chinese bombs were exploded. At 7:30
o’clock several ladies and their escorts
entered the hall, which was decorated
for the occasion, with what, no doubt,
were deemed appropriate mottoes. On
the left of the stage a sheet of white
paper was tacked to the wall, and it
bore the following legend:
Has Ohio by 30,000
and
Indiana by 8,000.”
On the right of the stage hung
another sheet of paper, inscribed
“.Solid North
vs.
Solid South,”
While in the center the following was
suspended:
| **I5 Years in the War!
£ Years in the Ohio Senate!!
f) Terms in Congress!!!”
Many would think that this referred
to James A. Garfield, were it not for
the fact, that he did not serve three
years, nor half of that time in the war.
Some sixty or seventy persons filed
into the hall and took seats, and R. W.
Wood, Chairman of the Garfield and
Arthur Club, introduced
HON. THOMAS WREN,
Who said Democratic orators seem to
have lost sight of the fact that we elect
a President this Fall. The burden of
the speeches now is praise of Fair
and abuse of Sharon. For years Re
publicans had been denounced for using
money or the “ sack,” as it is popularly
termed, and now the Democrats have
found a man who has a very large and
full sack, and if he M ill only open it, we
may be happy yet. The Democrats
justly oppose Sharon, but there are
plenty of other Republicans in the field
for the Senate, as well, or better, quali
fied than Sharon. He Mas a candidate
for the Senate, though he bad a mil
lionaire in the Republican party for an
opponent. A cat may look up at a king,
and he put his gifts against Sharon's
coin. He had been accused of being in
the field in Sharon’s interest, but why
should he be? Though not a million
aire, he Mas independent, and had a
profession. Eureka, Lander, Lincoln
and Elko instructed their delegates to
vote against Sharon. Some did not use
his name, but they meant it in effect.
He did not believe Sharon had money
enough to buy his M-ay back to the
Senate. He, the speaker, Mas consid
ered by some people, a sort of “ back
action ” to Sharon, but he would not
stand such insinuations.
POLITICAL ISSUES.
I The speaker then switclwd on politi
cal issues, and remarked that there had
not been an election for twenty years
so important as this. The policy of
one or the other of the parties will be
fixed on the country, and it remained to
be seen whether the North or the South
by caucus shall dictate that policy. The
speaker explained how' parties are con
trolled by the caucus system, and then
gave his views of the history of the
Republican and Democratic parties
from a Republican stand point. He
read extracts from pro-slavery papers
and from pro-slavery speeches, written
or delivered twenty-five years ago, but
! never alluded to the Chinese or Silver
bills, which a Republican President
vetoed only a year or two ago. He said
laws were passed within a year or two
for refunding the public debt at 4 and
4^ per cent, per annum, and although
the acts were passed by a Democratic
Congress,, he modestly gave all the
credit to the Republicans. He said the
tariff was being reduced, until only the
two prime articles of Democratic manu
facturer and consumption, whisky and
tobacco were taxed to amount to any
thing. While he candidly admitted that
all officers steal, he remarked that the
stealing under Jackson, the founder of
modem Democracy, was greater than
under Republican administrations. This
hit of pleasantry was appreciated by a
few of his hearers, who applauded the
remark. He referred to the fact that
there is too much abuse of candidates
by both parties, and then endeavored
to make it appear that the South is the
gteat oppressor of the laboring classes,
white as well as black. In several
States vagrant acts were passed to injure
the laboring classes. He alluded to the
elections, and made it appear, at least
it seemed as if he did, that the Maine
election was a Republican gain and that
the election of a popular Republican
to the Governorship of Indiana was a
Democratic Waterloo, after which he
again
returned to the sknatorship.
He said Governor Bradley had friends
in Humboldt. He was an honest man
(If Governor Bradley instead of being
in his grave was a candidate, it is doubt
ful if this merited compliment would
be paid him.—Reporter.) and a3 the
masses of the Democrats are honest, he,
of course, had friends among those
present. Two years ago he went to
Storey county with a majority, and
w as defeated by Mackay & Fair with
Bonanza money. (This must have
grated harshly on the ears of the friends
of Governor Kinkead, but it nad no
effect with the Democrats as against
Fair, for the reason that he was sick in
New York at the time of the election
in this iState two years ago, and if
money was used, as alleged by Mr.
Wren, to defeat Governor Bradley, it
was used by the Republican partner of
the Bonanza firm, J. W. Mackay.—
Reporter).
Mr. Wren was listened to attentively,
from first to last, and some of his re
marks w’ere applauded by the Demo
crats, which comprised by actual count
very nearly half the audience. Unlike
many stump speakers, his remarks were
not calculated to give offense, and if he
made no converts he made no enemies
among the Democrats present.
ARIZONA NOTES.
—
Dull Times at Prescott and a Paradise at
Plienix.
Squire Meatier, for many years a res
ident of this county, writes as follows,
from Roaedale, Arizona Territory:
“I have not written for some time, be
cause 1 had nothing of interest to write
about. Since my last letter, I visited
the celebrated Peck mine, near Pres
cott. There has been a vast quantity
[ of ore taken from this mine, and it pro
! duced hundreds of thousands of dollars.
It would pay just as well now, but the
sharpers have got hold of it, and the
title is involved in litigation, in conse
quence of which both mine and mill are
shut down, ami liable to remain so in
definitely.
Everything is very dull in and around
Prescott. The Peck mine, thirty miles
off, was the life of this place when it
wa3 in operation. Now that work is
suspended on the mine, the place is as
dull as it well could be.
I am now located just one half-mile
from Plienix, and intend to camp here.
] The climate is lovely nine months of the
year, but the other three are said to be
very warm. As I said before, all the
semi-tropical fruits grow to perfection
here. Alfalfa produces five or six crops
i in a year; peaches, grapes and figs are
excellent. The country is level, with
scarcely an acre of rolling land for
about tK> miles up and down the river,
and eight or ten miles wide. There is
plenty of water for irrigating purposes.
I am going into the fruit raising busi
ness; have quite an orchard now, and
will plant much more this Winter.
This valley is an oasis in the des
ert, as it is hundreds of miles in every
direction to any considerable body of
farming land.”

Have you any excuse for suffering
with dyspepsia or liver complaint ? Is
there any reason why you should go on
from day to day complaining of sour

burn, water-brash, gnawing and burn
ing pains at the pit of the stomach,
yellow skin, coated tongue and a
disagreeable taste in the mouth, coming
up of food after eating, low spirits,
&c. ? No! It is positively your own
fault if you do. Go to your druggist
and get a bottle of Green’s Attocst

In the Whole History of Medicine
No preparations has ever performed
such marvelous cures, or maintained so
wide a reputation as Ayre’s Cherry
Pectoral, which is recognized as the
world’s remedy for all diseases of the
throat and lungs. Its long-continued
series of wonderful cures in all climates
has made it universally known as a safe
and reliable agent to employ. Against
ordinary colds, which are the forerun
ners of more serious disorders, it acts
speedily and surely, always relieving
suffering, and often saving life. The
protection it affords, by its timely use
in the throat and lung disorders of
children, makes it an invaluable reme
dy to be kept always on hand in every
home. No person can afford to be
without it, and those who have once
used it never will. From their knowl
edge of its composition and effects,
physicians use the Cherry Pectoral
extensivoly in their practice, and cler
gymen recommend it. It is absolutely
certain in its remedial effects, ami will
always cure where cures are possible.

Coughs. — “Brown’s Bronchial
Troches ” are used with advantage to j
alleviate coughs, sore throat, hoarseness
and bronchial affections. For thirty
years these Troches have been in use,
with annually increasing favor. They
are not new and untried, but, having
been tested by wide and constant use
for nearly an entire geneiation, they
have attained well-merited rank among
the few staple remedies of the age.
The Thro4T.—“Brown’s Bronchial
Troches” act directly on the organs of
the voice. They have an extraordinary
effect in all disorders of the throat and
larynx, restoring a healthy tone when
relaxed, either from cold or over-exer
tion of the voice, and produce a clear
and distinct enunciation. Speakers and
singers find the Troches useful.
A Cough, cold, catarrh or sore throat
requires immediate attention, as neglect
oftentimes results in some incurable
lung disease. “Brown’s Bronchial
Troches” will almost invariably give
relief. Imitations are offered for sale,
many of which are injurious. The gen
uine “Brown’s Bronchial Troches” are
sold only in boxes. jal3-ly
