The Daily Transcript. : NEVADA CITY, CAL. 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.
