‘Tue Democrats axp tae Erout
Hour Law.—The Democracy claims to
be theespecial protectionist of the inserests of laboring men, but. a brief
glance at the history of the party will
suffice to prove those claims by pocritial. and to demonstrate that Democrats’
have always been the enemics of the
ax man: We will pass overthe
— te cmd by the mouths of
‘in Congress, denounced
itloe men as the “mud-silis of sociee
ty"that they sought to degrade. labor
W ths level of slavery, and to incu)
the idea that slavery was’ the p
condition of laborers; We will as
mention the fact that Democratae ee leadérs afe now aqvocating the importation of a new class
to be Subjected to s systeut of la every.
and'“by tlis.means to force labor ‘to
its. first position in oar “country, ‘from
Whith slavery has just been eradicated
by the Republican: party. We will
only mention these things, and pas to
the consideration of a matter which
niust be fresh in. the minds of tho
working meh Of this State.
ibeulers remembered that the omallery bill, idiaenty known as tho eight
hour law, was introduced’ into the Aisembly at the last session ofthe Legislature. This bill “provided that sig hit
hours shall constitute day's ‘work .
thronghont the State, and in this! for
thé bill weht to the judiciary coni
tee, the ‘majority of ‘whith were Sahoo :
crats, The commit attached a prox
viao, Containedsin section. 4 of:the act,
to regulate'the hours of lavd? as it now
stands upon ‘the statut’ book, and it
was reported back. ,dfr. White, of this
cédhty, a “Kepubtican; ‘ealled. atvention
tO PNG fact, that the bill ,repealed the
ten hour daw-entirely,rand ‘by: exceptions contained in section four, ‘left a
large clas’ 6f laboré?s ‘in the State
without any prowetion Wiiatever., Mr.
Coggins of Sacramento then offered an
amendment, providing. that (the: ten
Hout law should not be repealed, oxcept so,faras «it wap effected by the
proposed'law. All of thése amend-}
ments were voted down by Democrats,
andthe bill passed as it came from-the
Democratic cotimities, and leaving the
__majority . of’ working” fhén ‘Without any
law. All -egriculturdl’ laborers’ may
now be required to work rfifteen hours
in a day, and-ean only obtaid “pay for a
day’s work. The law therefore is a
Democratic abortionjreducing the hours
of labor of: a minority of Workiig mob,
and leaving the large nyajority with
any sProtection whatever. ‘This’ oy
did after the defects had beeg puinted
out and a remedy urged by *Repabhicans. How different. the coyrse of the
Republican Congress on this question.
By that body.all laborers were’classed
in, the same catagory under a law passed, / providing that eight hours should
constitute a day's work for all persons
employed.on the public works, giving
aveight hour law that would’ @itend
to every man within the jurisdiction of
the gowetnment. This law was to
sone extent nullified by Yoktison, by
reducing the pay, but Grant. restored
the sime pay ashen the men worked
ten hours. Even after tho passage of
jour defective State law, ‘Haight
. tempted circa be
we shoald be paid the
hour at rates they when workig ten hours per day. “These are some
of the evidences of Democratic friendship for labor, and still dema gogues:
bave the audacity to claim that the la_. -borer, is “under obligations to the Democracy.
“GENERAL” WaLiLace.—A subscriber wishes to know how, when and
whete, the above Democratic candidate
for Justice of the Supreme Court obtained the handle to his name. We
are unable to answer, says the Oakland
Wers, oniess it was_throngh the bestowal upon him of the office of Attorney “General” by the old Know Noth.
ing party of California. It is quite genérally understoad by the people that he
did not win his star ih the service of
his country. Perhaps it was woo fer
his generalship in managing land cases
in carly tines, against the interests of
the settlers. His flank movement upon
the City treasury,a few years ago, fur
an eight thousand dollar fee for services never rendered, would have been a
pretty‘good specimen of generalship if
it‘had succeeded. Be that as it may,
we will cheerfully ueccord to him the
title of General on general principles.
We haveto deal with him only asa
candidate for a high office. .We gre
wéll awase that ifthe General should
succeed in his judicial aspirations, the
next move he will make will be fora
seat in the United States Senate. We
shal] endeavor to keep an eye On, him,
¢ . and keep the people advised of such of
t . his stragetic movements in that direction a8 we can manage to fathom.
Genera Rosecrans SenENADED.—
General Rosecrans was sefenaded i in San
Francisco, on Tuesday evening last,
says the Herald! under the auspices of
the Young Men's Central Democratic
Club. The General came to his window
and thanked those preséht for their
kindness. He said he hud the credit of
being a poor speaker, and had no fear
but on this occasion his character in
that-respect would ‘be sustained. He
had determined to: make California bis
home’ And become a permanent resident
here. The people of Ohio had nominated him for Governor, but he did not
‘gee how hé could be a citizen of two
States. After some farther remarks the
General withdrew amidst the plaudits
of the assemblage.

CHANGE oF TIME. —The Omaha Re.
publican, of July 31st, says the Union
Pacific Railroad . passenger train will
leave Omaha from the Ninth street depot, after August ist, at 9 o'clock, A.M,
instead of 8.80, and arrive at 3.10 in‘stead of 8°50, as heretofore.’ This is a
change which will be gratifying to the
tra@oling public, as it passes the train
through on time with close connections
at Promontory Point, instead of a thirs
. teen hours’ delay.
WiLL Dis.—It was

lastevening, says the Virginia Entei
prise of Fnday, that: Albert Springer,
the man who was beaten over ihe head
with a pistol by Robert Dedman a night

His physician says he cannot recover.
From a wound near the top of his head,
made apparently. by the cock of the
pistol, the Doctor extracted eleven
pieces of bone and two or three teaspoonsiuls of the brain itself. The
