THE LABORER AND His FRIENDS.
I: is surprising that laboring men car
be so blinded to their interests by pre~
judice as to be led into antagonism to
theparty which has ever been their
best friend. The following is one of .
the planks of the State platform: __
Resolved, That the Republican party,
having ever,had in special keeping the
rights of labor and of the laborer, and
removed therefrom the blighting curse
of slavery and inag urated a new era, in
which the wages of labor have-greatly
advanced; while the hours therefor have
been correspondingly diminished, claim
to have originated, in this. State, and
steadily supported what is known as
the “Eight Hour Law,” the sound policy of which has’ been proclaimed by a
Republican Congress and by a procla~
mation of a Republican President made
public works of the
United States. i
The entfre history of the Républican
party isa contest for the rights of free
labor, while on the other hand Democracy has been fighting for its degrada.
tion. These facts can be demonstrated
by reference to the acts of the parties.
‘Kvery attempt to make-labor subservient to capital, and bring into competion with. free Igbor a system which
would reduce it to dependence, has originated with those who now claim to be
its especial protectionists.
Let the laborer ask himself who has
heretofore made the Democratic. plat~
forms, dictated its policy. and. nominated its candidates.? Its life and destiny
have been in the hands of politicians,
whose only object has been to accommodate and satisfy the Southern leaders. The last national contest was
fought by the Democracy upon issues
dictated by the leaders of the South.
Men of this class make the principles
fot Democracy now as. they ever have
done. In this‘view of the case, what
can the laborer expect? Already these
Southern Democrats are attempting to
bring tothe country Coolie labor, an
hundred fold more injurious to free laber than the competition of Chinese las
bor now in this State, the great ‘evil being the faet that the proposed plan embodies in it all the elements of slavery,
the Chinese to be bought for a term of
years and worked in the South on the
plarjtations. With tho Southern Democracy carrying out such a policy as
this, how-ig it: possible for the little .
remnant of the party in California to
override their will; and dictate terms to
those who havo always furnished the
principles of the party.
The New York World, the leading
Democratic organ of the country, falls
in with the Southern’ Democrats and
ridicules the idea of the party making
this an issue in the canvass. It will
thus be seon that the California Democ”
racy are. without sympathy among
their friends and are powerless to do
what they pretend to desire. Those
laboring men who leave the Republicans will find themselves betray.
From the Repuljicans the laborer
has aright to.expect help, Judging
trom the past policy and the faithful adhereage toe froedom, the future may be
jall the votes cast; and was legiti. mately the presiding officer of the Con-after raise such a charge in the Conven/—The Sonoma Democrat says: CharThe Daily ~ Beanscript, [pee connec he

Not So.—We are informed-by dele~

vention at Sacraments thet the statement of, Frank Pixley to the effect that !
Judge McFarland, who occupied the
Chair, did not receive a majority of the .
votes of the Convention, is not correct.
that the statement is wholly untrue. .
McFarland received a clear majority of
vention. The Sacramento newspapers
should, in justice to all parties, give the
facts,and not allow a false impression to
go abroad, detrimental to the character .
of the Convention or any member of it.
It is somewhat singular that after the
Judge was unanimously declared clected
Chairman of the Convention, on mcs
tion of Pixley himself, he should long .
tion, endangering its harmuny and injuring its character.

Two CaLiIForNIA Ex-CoNGRESSMEN.
I¢y Scott and Joe McKibben were élected to Congress from California’ in or
about 1857.. There they divided on the
Lecompton question—Scott for and .
McKibben against. The war broke out,
and Scott entered the rebel army, and:
McKibben that of the patriots. What
McKibben is doing now we know not,
but Scott and he are both alive, the

both members ot the Democratic State
Convention which met the other diy at

the National has good ground for apprehension for its friends.
