Unity or Errort.—The setting of
to-morrow’s sun will witness the more
thorough redemption of the State from
Democratic misrule. That this is to be
the case, none who have observed the
bickerings and family troubles of the
Democrats in various localities will
ever affect a doubt. But while we
‘confidently expect an increased majority in the State over the last election’
from these dissentions in the Democratic ranks and other causes, it still
becomes us to urge a united action on
the part.of Republicans, The triumph
of our party at this time would bea
refutation of the remark that is often
made, that Grant’s reputation did the
work for us in the last campaign, and
‘would add incalculably to the prestige
Notwithstanding
all over the State are making strenuous efforts to elect, in each county, the
legislative ticket. The same fight is
being made in this county, except,pers
haps, it be a trifle more selfish. And
the people of our county,how view they
these aspirations for place and plunder?
Do they entertain thoughts of ever bestowing office upon these Democrats, so
long as an empty coat sleeve or missing
leg remains to attest their diabolical
attempt upon the nation’s life? It has
been said that the war being over there
is Dow no occasion for so strict an ob~
servance of party fealty ; that it is men
now and not principles—but how foolish such a doctrine! A patient past
the crisis ofa fever is not deserted by
his physician with the remark that as
he has not died he will see him no
more; \but is carefully nursed back
to total convalescence. So itis with
our country; she has been repeatedly
stabbed in the back by this very Democratic party, now when near recovery,
it is proposed to put her into the hands
of her would=be assassins, Itmakes
no difference if this is but a State contest, it will have a bearing upon nas
tional affairs, and these Democrats
seeking your votes in this county ars
equally culpable, and more deserving
of defeat than many aman that bore
a musket in the rebel army. Their
leaders have called upon you to east
votes in favor of their ‘candidates, in
the face of facts which are sufficiently
damning to tarnish the reputation of
the devil. They had control of this
government once—a debt of three thou.
sand, three hundred and seventy-seven
millions, nine hundred and thirty-four
thousand,five hundred and eighty-nine
dollars, to say nothing of the value of
thousands of brave lives kitests the
fact. They were in full power in this
State in times gone by —they. allowed
the Chinese Empire to relieve herself of
a small surplus of population, amounting to 60,000, te the great -injury of
our people; they left the State in a
bankrupt condition to their Republi;
can successors. In this couhty they
once held sway—a depleted treasury,
with scrip worth not half its face,
would suggest the fact, and so in every
instance where they have been honored
with the-confidence of the people. They
have always broken their pledges and
are degerving of political extermination
and oblivion,
‘The wound was mortal aud he imme~
‘hibited the movement,
true, to. the record of your, party, and it,
i
every.aiiember. of the party. Marshal
your forces, afd to-morrow march to
the polls to fight these enemies of free
government with the ballot, as your
brothers fought and conquered their
brothers with the sword on the field of
battle. If there be one among you
who is disaffected, tell him of his brothstarved to death in the prison pen of
that consistent Democrat, Wirtz. One
noticeable“feature in this contest is the
unanimity of effort made by the rejected
aspirants for places on the ticket;. they,
that should characterize defeated contestants, are working—for—its success,
-with a confidence that—cannot fail of
accomplishing the desired end. And
now we wish you to thiak of these
things, you who have thought of
scratching a single name upon the Republican ticket, and see if you cannot
better afford to wait for some other
method to express your dissatisfaction
in. Forget all grievances until after
to-morrow night; work unitedly and
assiduously, and when the result is
announced your conscience will not rex
proach you if a Democrat be elected. *
KILLED sy InprANs —The Helena,
Montana Gazette, of August 19, gives
the following particulars of the murder
of Malcolm Clark, whose farm is on the
Little Prickly Pear. “He was a graduate of West Point, and many years ago
came to that Territory, married into
the Piegan tribe, and raised a family
of half-breed children, whom he had ed:
ucated with great caro. On Tuesday
night,Mr. Clark was treacherously murdered by a raiding party of Piegan Indians—a tribe whose interests were
dearer to him than those of his own
race,and in whose favor he was ever
ready to argue. Two months ago the
Indians raided off a lot of Mr. Clark’s
stock. On Tuesday night a band of
Piegan Indians, numbering about 25,
‘most of whom were acquaintances of
the family, rode te the door and some
of them entered the house. They were
very cordial in their manner ; told him
that some of their tribe had run off his
stock two months ago, and some more
two weeks since; that it was agajnst
the wishes and desires of the tribe ; that
they loved him; knew he had been
their best friend, and that they had
brought back with them his stock, and
ifhisson would go out to the road
they would give him back his horses,
and help him to drive them into the
corral. The young man went out but
had scarcely gone three yards from the
a gun. He went out to see what was
the matter, and as soon as he reached
the corner of the house, he too was shot.

CoFFROTH AND CooLips.—The Yreka Journal, in an article on the 12th
inst., skins alike the current demas
gogery of Democrats on the Chinese
hobby. It says: “The inauguration of
the importation of Chinamen was first
established in this State by Democrats,
and they tried, under the Tead of James
W. Coffroth, some seven years ago, be~
fore the Republican party eXisted, to’
import and hold them to serve to pay.
their passage. The authors of this
Democratic address affect ignorance of
this fact, and seem to be ignorant, also,
ofa law of Congress, adopted in 1862,
which peremptorily prohibits their importation, and an order to enforce that
law having been lately issued by Secfetary Boutwell to the Collector at
New Orleans. The Republicans don’t
like a Chinaman any moré than the
Democrats, but they are not disposed to
bamboozle the people on falsehood and
trickery for the sake of catching a few
votes on prejudice.

meeting held in San Francisco Friday
night that, had he the power, he would
strike from the California statutes the
law which excludes Chinese testimony’
from four Courts of Justice; whereupon
the Herald proposes that some such
pledge as the following be exacted from
all candidates for office a
“Do you renounce, abjure, disown,
repudiate and put from you with all
your might, the damnable heresy of Mr.
Axtell on the subject of Chinese testi~
mony; and all the other and more
damnable heresies, by many professed
and entertained, on the subject of Chinese immigration and Chinese suffrage.”
Too Muck FoR EVEN Hiv.—The
editor of the Nevada TRANSCRIPT, who
is running for District Attorney on the
Radical Ticket, finds that the Chinaman is too heavy topack in Nevada
county, and he savagely drops John.
Deal’s recent political change of base
is somewhat remarkable. ,
The above we copy from the San
Franciseo Hxaminer, and the same kind
of stuff is retailed over this county by
a few unprincipled whelps. We are
and always have been opposed to Chinese suffrage and Chinese immigration,
and whoever asserts to the contrary is
an unmitigated liar.
