Friday, August 24, 1877.
The Republican Candidates, _
A number of the candidates on
the Republican ticket have been in
~towa ~ this week. Wherever the
gentlemen composing that ticket go,
they do riot fail to impress the people that they are competent, reliable
and popular citizens. Thereare no
doubtful characters or professional
politicians among them. , Hon. H
K. Turner, candidate for Joint Senator, has filled the position to which}
he now aspires, Lonorably, and acceptably to his constituents. J. M,
Walling is essentially a self-made
taan. -He has forced his way up to
u« first-claes rank in the law profession and is admitted by such men as
Judge Searls, to be a well-read, energetic, henest and efficient attorney. He has the entire confidence
of the best business men in this section of the-county, and no man, who
has known Walling during his residence herewor elsewhere, can bring
one dishonorable act against hitn.
A squarer man on all issues before
the people, or a more practical clearheaded man, cused not live in the’
county.
for the Assembly the Republican
convention put an unexceptional ticket inthe field. ReubenJ.eech is one of
Grass Valley’s oldest, mest respected
and honorable eitizems. His purse
nas always been open te the calls of
charity. His iuserest -in laboring
amen has been shown by employing
“arge wambers of them, and always
at “Yemunerative wages. No Chinese haVeever applied to Mr. Leech.
He has beéne liberal supporter of
schools, charches-and societies organized for the intellectual and
inoral advancement of -che-community in which he hay so long ided:-He-is a first-class:-man, and has
had -legislative ezperience which
willassist-him in the discharge of
the responsible duties of-the position.
Henry Everett has also been in the
Legislature, and-is generally -known
as one of God’s Noblemen. He combines the three requisites of an officer; . honesty, capability and
popularity. Not a lisp has ever
been heard against the integrity,
or sincerity of Henry Everett,
B, F. Bucon, of Boca, the other
gentleman, has been among a portion of the people of this county,
ud wherever he has met voters he
hus made friends. He is a shrewd
business man, a~ popular gentleman
: wherever known, and because of his
lionesty and capability, he has. been
the managing agent of one of the
largest buviness firms of the interior
of tie State for years. He commands the respect of all who know
him, end has the entire confidence
of his employers and business associstes, Hf Ben. Bacon is elected to
the Legislature he will make-a rec‘urd of which his constituents, as well
us himself will feel proud,
For the office of Sheriff, Major
J. 8. McBride, of Sebastopol, is
the nowinee, and the convention
that nominated him certainly performed a good service for the party.
He will poll a larger vote on the
Ridge than any other man _ could
have done, and wher. ver he goes
friends flock to his support. Mr.
McBride is a quiet gentleman, whose
acquaintance will wear. He has
long been identified with the mining
interests of the county, and has employed a large force of men for years.
No Chinese are employed by him,
He is a thorough and efficient business map, and will make a No. 1
Sheriff. He is gving to be elected
too.
For the office of Coanty Clerk,
no better man could have been nom. inated than W. J. Shinn. His quali‘fications are attested to by the best
men of both parties at Truckee,
. His canvas thas far has proved that . .
. the people recognize in him tbe
wight man for the place. His own
‘township will give him a Jarge and
complimentary vote, —
For District Attorney there is no
better mau than E, H. Gaylord, the
present imeumbent. He hes held
the office for two terms, and never
_has there been a complaint that he
has not done hisduty. . He is a thorough laywer, # forcible speaker and.
an accomplished gentlemen. As-a.
prosecuting attorney he bas no superior in California, _ Few criminals
‘have escaped pan‘shasent under his: r the eowarilly villain,
oduinintration He is cascada
by the Bar as one of its ablest mem
bers. Having done his duty and being thoroughly competent for the
position, it is almost certain he will
be retained byithe people,
For County ‘Treasurer, that old
war horse, W. K, Spencer of Grass
Valley, asks the suffrages of the peo~
ple. ‘None know him but to respect
him. None know him bat concede
his honesty and ability. Asa Republican he is, and always bas been
the most active and eonsistent. As
a.man, he ranks among the most esteemed.He has fought the battles
of his party from the start, anc Republican nominees have’ always.
found a firm friend in him. If he is
‘not elected by a large majority, then
there is no gratitude im the party, or
ability and fitness ure net recognized
in it.
For County Kecorder, Captain J
A. Rapp is the nominee, and no better man could have been selected.
‘His past record is without a blemish.
He was a patriot during the war, and
has been a highly respected citizen:
since, He is competent and-popular,
and will be the next Recorder: of Nevada county. :
Por School Superintendent, Geo.
B. Robinson, an experienced teacher,
a thorough scholar,anda gentlman of
superior ability ds the nominee.
Mr. Robinson has-been a worker in
the sehools of the county for many.
yeuss, and is regarded as an efficient.
one every wher3,
For County Surveyor, H. S. Brad-!
Jey, one of the bestin the State, is
the nominee. His work has always
been satisfactory and correct.
Whenever a difficult piece of ‘surveying is to be done, H. S. Bradley. is
employed if he-can be found. We
‘don’t think he-needs any encomiums
4rom us, as the people all know him.
For Public -Administrator, Joha
Glasson of Grass Valley was nominated, and the norination~bhas—met
with approval everywhere. He is a
competent gentleman, is popular and
. honest, and will be elected.
Ror Coroner, W. G. Groves was
placed on the ticket without solicitation. As-he hasheld the office and
performed the duties satisfactorily,
he will again be elected.
‘For Supervisor, W. H. Smith, an old:
and highly respected citizen of this
city isthe man. He isa competent
manend a worker. He knows what
the wants of the people are, whut
the duties of the office will be, and
is competent to fill the position.
There is no better man in the township.
Finally the Republican ticket is
one of the best ever nominated. in
this county. No exception can be
taken against aman on it. It was
nominated squarely to the support
of every Republican from the top to
the bottom.
The Taylor Troupe.
The Taylor Family, who have
been’ giving excellent entertainments in different parts of the
State, and have received landatory
notices by the press, have arrived in
this city, and will give a performance on to-morrow, Saturday evening,at the Theatre. They are all
first-class artists, and “ Little Mattie,” who sustains ten different characters, is spoken of as the greatest
wonder of the age. The troupe comes
well recommended, and those who
attend, can be assured of sceing a
number one performance. Admission 50 cents.
eee
: Senator Morton.
The New York World says:
Senator Morton isa very sick man,
if not in positive peril. He taxed
his physical powers unduly in his
late trip to the Pacific Coast, especially inthe matter of eating, a
soft shell’ crab salad, partaken of at
Ben. Holladay’s, being the dish that
brought on paralysis of his left arm
and siae. He has hereditary téndency to.paralysis. His father and
uncle died of it; and-his-brother has.
been more or less afflicted with is.
Torpidity of the bowels is the most
alarming symptom connected with
his illness,
<a
_ The dog iat is around again .
Two or three nights ago a little pet
dog belonging to the daughter ot G.
von Schmittburg, was poisoned by
meat being thrown over the. fence,
and on Wednesday night the old
family cat shared the same fate,
fully pay $50 for the conviction of
. } man; that they will vote for the best
Mr. Schmittburg says he will cheer.
f The Issue.
George S.Hupp the Democratic
nominee for District Attorney struck
the key note of the campaign in his
speech at Truckee, on Monday night
when he claimed from his standpoint that the United States Senate
should be Democratic. That 1 the
real. issue among Democrats this
Fall but no one among them has
thus far announced the fact except
Mr. Hupp. The organs of that party try hard to marrow the canvass
down to local issues, hoping thereby
to mistify their opponents and quietly ranin a Democratic Legislature
when a Democrat wil} be elected as
the successor, both to Boeth and Sargest. Those organs never mention
the Senatorial question ‘except to refer to;Sargent. They know that
there are some in the Re-;
publican ranks who are opposed
‘to hin and they hope to induce such
men to vote the Democratic ticket,
so to get even with him. So far—as
we can learn the e@ort will be futile:
Even Sargent’s epponents will not
cut ‘their-own nose off to ‘spite their
face. Shey know that the same
men ‘who will eleet Sargent’s successor will also eleet Booth’s They
know that ifthe Democrats are elected to the Legislature, a Repablican
will saeceed neither. It is also well
known among Republicans that the
nominees. of their party are not
pledged to vote for Sargent or any
man for the. interests of the State
and the one that will best please
their constituents. If that man
proves to be Sargent, well and good;
ifhe proves to be Estee, Miller,Phelps
or, any one of a dozen others it wil] be
equally satisfactory to the friends of
Mr. Sargent, The Republican candidates are unpledged and they. are
men who will do nothing that will
be in opposition to the wishes of a
majority of their constituents. Republicans know this. They also
know that if Democrats are elected
this State being represented at
Washington by two Democrats, as
Mr. Hupp desires. The Senatozial
question is the important issue and
it should be kept foremost in the
campaign.
Tre Great O pera Troupe.
The Richins-Bernard English
Opera Troupe, Will give two grand
performances here, on Saturday
evening, September}st,and on Monday evening, September 3d. There
are thirty artists, having a full
orchestra of theirown, The troupe
is first-class in every respect. It is
direct from De Bar’s Opera House,
St. Louis, and ison the way to San
Francisco. They will open with
“Martha,” on Saturday evening,
and on Monday evening will present
“ The Bohemian Girl, ” two of the
most popular English operas. There
should be a full house on those
evenings. There are certainly lovers of music in this town enough to
crowd the Theatre.
An Incipent oF THE Staixx.—Last
month a party ot communists
called at the office of Robert Law,
the big coal man. **You must pay
your men two dollars a day, or we'll
shot youw‘up,” said the spokesman.
“‘And who the devil are you, sir?’’
demanded Robert. ‘‘We represent
thedabor strike and’ must be. obey-.
ed,’’ imperiously demanded the
spokesman. ‘'Well you want me to
pay my men two dollars a day, do
you?” ‘Yes, and you must do it
too.’’ I'm much obliged to the labor strikers, Iam now paying my
men from $3 to $4 50 a day, and a
seduction to two dollars will be a
good thing for me; but go and see
the workmen about it, you d——d
fools!’ The imperious dictators
oked cheap ani vamoosed the
ranch.—Chicago Journal.
SENATOR CONKLING, in his address to the friends who welcomed
him back to New York, said: “Many
of you gave me ‘messages to Genera] .
Grant: ‘They were delivered and
and appreciated and greetings sent
you in return. Wherever the goes
honors wait him, but they do not
seem to wean him trom things at
home. He may remain long abroad
‘but when he returns you are likely} soy
to find that all the distinction poured
upon him have not washed out a jot
of his Americanism, or made anything save the same upright, downright Republican, without cant or
palaver—the same modest, unpretending citizen you have ever known
him. Again greeting ae "yore
