gy we ‘Bhe Daily Transcript ‘NEVADA OFP¥, CAL. i Tuesday, “August 17,. 1875. = A Fow Theaghts. = Political matters continue to engross the minds of the people.— “There will be no apathy evinced ‘sat the polls this year. A full vote will be polled. We presume ‘each “woter will ‘be governed by what he -sapposes to be ‘for the best inter -ests of the eountry. The old line party men, will do as they have done heretofere, vote a straight party vticket. Those who wheeled iato Mine and organized the Republican ~~party, -and-spent-their time, money } cand in@uence-to see the principles it “was founded upon‘ succeed, will be found *to-day shoulder to shoulder “'trying still to make its” ube pee triumphant. ‘The old line Desacteete who were ~equally wedded to the principles of “that party, and who assisted with «time and money to continue it in power, are stil! found true to the orThe new party is composed of men ‘who pretend not to respect the prin~eiples of either of the old parties, but ‘think a new one will be a never fail ing panacea forell the dlls the Gov-ernment sat present affi‘cted with. We: presume each member of the publican party, and desires those principles to be carried ' out the next four years in both State and Nation, . should lend his earnest support to it during the present campaign. For we believe by doing differently he only renders a Democratic success next Fall a certainty. We have ne objection to most of the men en the Independent ticket. -They are good, reliable men, whom we highly respect, They are~ neighbors and friends, and have never dome aught to merit disrespect. But we believe they ought mot to be elected only to break up the only national party in opposition. to Democracy. ‘‘Gentleof the jury’’ ponder these things. Tuttle’s Speech. = There was a moderately large and. bear the speech delivered by the Hon. Charles A. Tuttle in this city, on Saturday night last. The speech was, asa whole, fuir, and was well . received by all who listened to it. No ere could find fawlt-with the speaker's position on railroad affairs and on monepolies generally. Mr. Tuttle is not an orator, and, like most of the speakers ii this campaign, did not arouse much enthusiasm. We have heard no. one who was convinced that it is necessary to vote with the Independent party to bring about the reform Mr. Tattle advocates. His attempts to prove Mr. Page wron: in passing the wood “mew party is bonest in his convic‘tions, ‘At least we believe ull are, vexcept those who thought in the organization of such a party they saw a better chance to obtain office. We “know it is true there are a large -Class im -every community who like *to be consulied in politicel matters, -and if they are not they become soreheaded. Such men are never found * .among the ones. who come up with ‘money or labor for the success of party; but they desire others shall furnish all the sinews of war, and “then allow them to dictate how the “pattle shall be fought. It is probably true that both the old parties have neglected to comply with the ~requirements of this class, and hence “they are interested in organizing a “mew party. We believe the leaders inthis county, of the Independent movement, come principally from this class. It is probable the new. party, should it succeed, will in a -short time also ignore them; for a ‘man cannot long retain supremacy ina party unless he renders extra ‘services, and is willing to make saczifices for the suceess of the -party. “These men, can see merit in them-elvea, which ethers can not see. "They think they have the ability to Mead, and are astonished that psoyple do not select them as such. ‘ “They can dilate upon: the faults of vexisting leaders with a glib tongue, :and honestly believe, we think, that “they could show their superiority if cintrusted with leadership. It is from -sugh men the great cry of corruption :among leaders has arisep, and they -have gonvinéed many honest men that the only salvation ef the country lay im @ change, That is, putting -old leaders out, and these new self jpraised luminaries in, The Independent movement, when ~.anelyzed, amounts te that and nothving more. It has no national exist-ence; it-holds no principles distinct ‘from the old parties, and has -as yet ‘shown ne reasea for its. success except the one stated. If successful this Fall, it will have to disband next .Fall, when the contest for President yeomes.on, unless the Independents “TOf this State have no further intervest in the Federal Government. The Jeaders of the Independents do not <laim the organization is to be lasting, but itis only a scramble after leadership and for—office. Those “who go off now will in time have to ~come back to one of the old parties. We believe none of them except those “who abandoned the party for office, por some ether equally selfish motive, ~will feel as aiuch at home when they «lo return as they would had they remained trueite the principles of the old party. There have been fac‘tions im the Republican party” be. ‘fore, and’ probably will be again. It is hard now for any one to tell ‘what good the “short hair’ party ‘ever did tne State, and two years: “d.om now at.will be equally difficult to tell what good the. Independent movement did this year. The party has pot put up men better qualified for office, nor has it shown tnat it: oan better subserve the intersts of people, shoald it gain power. We couclude, then, that every man evo loves the’pripeiples of the Beland bill might do in parts of this . Congressional District where there is notimber; but here, where the necessity of such a bill is known, it did aot go down. His idea that it is better to allow any mun or associaand cut all the timber they choose, without. rendering any compensation to the Government therefor, would not be favored by any one at ull acquainted with the lumber interests. On the whole, however, Mr. Tuttle was very fair in the discussion, and although he did not convince any one that it is necessary to vote the Independent ticket in order to secure reform; he did not make any enemies and did not injure the cause he advocates, Gymnasium. An Athletic Club has been organized in this city, and will soon be in active operation. They propose to have a first class gymnasium, and for this. purpose bave engaged the Skating Rink. A meeting was hela a short timre since, and it was ascertained that a great deal: of material necessary in such an institution, could be obtained from different parties in this city,for a very reasonable compensation. There will be in the neighborhood of forty or fifty mem-. bers to start with. Each person joining the club will have to pay a regular fee, but we presume there are many of our citizens, who are not desirous of becoming members, that would make quite: liberal contributions towards it, in order to make it a success. Itis to be conducted in an orderly and systematic manner, and will be a nice place for amusement and healthy exercise. There are clubs of this kind in most of the cities below, and we see no reason why this place can not afford one Republican Canvass. There was a. meeting of the Republican candidates yesterday, and a vigorous campaign decided upon, The candidates will not go in a body as heretofore, but will divide up so that every precinct of the ceunty can be visited before the day of eleotion. There is not an objectionable man on the ticket and when the people at large become acquainted with them, they will conclude the late Convention nominated the strongest ticket ever putin the field inthe county by any party. It is the intention of the candidates td accord the most courteous treatment to their opponents, and we believe no personalities will be indulged in by. them. They prefer, rather, to rely upon the good sense of the people ,in determining who are the most competent men and whe represent the best political principles. oes > ee _ Besigned. Evan D. Evans, candidate on the Republican ticket, has declined be-ing.a candidate for Supervisor of the 4th District, oa account ef his business. A. L. Bagley, of Rough and Ready Township has beea nominated by the County Central Committee. Mr. Bagley is very highly spoken of and will make.a good Supervisor if elected, . very attentive audience present to. tion to enter upon the public lancs. _. citizeng escorted the gentlemen from = ‘the Figures Before the People. Newton Booth, says’the Colusa Sun, pretends te be such a great Reformer that he asks the people to let him build up a political party of bis own—one that he can do with asa a man does witha horse. It is well,, then, to keep a few figures before the people. The following figures are gleaned from the Controller's report, . comparing the last year of Haight’s administration with [Beoth’s first year: Haight.

Transcript: Again I am in trouble, and again I apply to you for relief. This time, it is about the Democracy — the great Democratic party—the hard money party. Although not much of a Democrat, yet, the future welfare of this gold coin party—this hard money party. The Democracy don’t go back on their record, Oh no! Consistency is one of their greatest boasts. Knowing this, I can’t understand the situation in Ohio. From reports, it seems that the Democratic party is making this canvass in the interest of greenback currency—rag money. Now, asI cannot believe any such reports: about-this great unchangeable party, and can‘t understand the reports any other way, I would respectfully -\Oup Foey. We refer Old Fogy ib Sar Sdatemnporary, the Grass Valley Union. We are not ableto keep up with th changes of that party. Business Habits. It always requires time to adapt . : one’s self to any particular profession, occupation, line of action. hence the necessity of carefully and constantly practicing those things which are peculiar to the calling or occupation of one’s choice. The rivalry and competition inci}deut to business require that one should be a close observer ef both men and things. A careless or unobserving young man will soon find himself ruled eut and pushed aside. “Never be guilty of saying that. such and such things are the result of -accident, not of design. Thegreatest fault of which, asa budiness man, one can be guilty-of, andone which people are most unwilling to forgive, is to say that you acted without-consideration. Think first and act afterwards. Unceasing industry is an_indispensible requisite to any young man who desires access to the business world. The man who can not.or will not work, early and late, in season and out of season, need not expect to succeed. Caaseless vigilance; aed unwearied effort, are inseperable from successful business pursuits. —College Journal. —>-o~<> _Apispatoa from Stockton dated the 11th instant, states: Hon. H.
