JUDGE BARTINE IS CALLED BY DEATH



On Tuesday the sad news was received at this office of the sudden death in

Winnemucca of H. F. BARTINE of Carson City, Nevada, candidate for the

Democratic nomination for Congress.  He had been suffering with an affection

of the heart, but it was thought that he was improving and plans were made

to remove him to his home.  He suffered a relapse, however, and passed into

the beyond.

Judge BARTINE was born in New York City in 1848, and enlisted in the Civil

War when but 15 years old.  He has been a resident of Nevada since 1869 and

served as one of our representatives in Congress from 1888 to 1892.  He left

the Republican fold in 1896, when that party adopted the gold standard, and

became an ardent supporter of silver, campaigning for a time with William

Jennings BRYAN.  He had served as chief commissioner and chairman of the

Nevada Railroad Commission since 1907, when the commission was created.



He is survived by two daughters who reside in Carson City.     The judge was

a gentleman, gracious and eloquent, had friends in every part of the state

who will feel his death to be a personal loss.
