Many of the strongest men were beaten, and it is evident from the votes, the minority ranging binations had been formed. For Treasurer, for instance, Mitchell was nominated at the request df the Miners’ Leagué,. who it-was sta_ted were all Democrats and-numbered 350. But the miners stood no show, for Mitchell only got’ 8 votes on the first ballot and 5 on the last. Tully and Greenwald, among the most popular men in the county were also sactificed. For Road Cummiswere beaten by Cleayland. Slicer, whose record was boasted of as the best made in the last Legislature,and who has for months been spoken of ag the Senatorial nominee, was sacrificed for a new candidate, and _ .-GrassValley got the lion’s share of . the offices. Grass Valley has one Assemblyman, the Clerk, Treasnrer, District Attorney, Road Commissionér, Coroner, and Public Administra-tor, in all eight nominations, to be voted for at the general election.— Neither the Germans nor the Cornishmea have a representative man on the ticket. After the adjournment of the. Convention, there were mutterings. loud and deep, and the greatest dissatis~ faction existed in the party. Old line Democrats chafcd under the ides thatthe whole Convention, with one or two exceptions was controlled and the nominations made through combinations effected on Thursday and Friday nights, The Union County Convention, The Union Republican County in this city, this morning at 11 o'clock. Upon the action of this Convention depends, in no small degree the success of the party. The delegations, we feel assured, desire to make the strongest possible ticket, and to this end personal friendships should not control where the ticket can be made strong. The party wants good representative men, who can command the confidenee and support of the people. Let the delegates to-day weigh well the merits of the several candidates presented for each office, and support those who can best win in the contest,: The State ticket selected by the party isa strong one, well worthy the support of every member of the party. ‘The platform is such a declaration of sentiments as receives the hearty val of the people: The Democracy have given us all the advantage inthe fight, and we have only to select a county ticket with care to-day, to place victory beyond @ doubt. ee J The Grass Valley Lottery, The Musical Festival for the benefit of the Miner’s Homé at Grass Valley, will take place on the 16th of September, There are 60,000 tickets at $2°60 each, and 150 gifts amounting to $90,000, to. be. distributed. The highest prize is $15,000, and the next $10,000. The enterprise is endorsed by leading citizens of Gracs Valley. The dosign. is t donate $10,000 for a home for disabled minera. See the advertisement in today's paper. % ". may bé statedin round numbers at RA AC RRR hg “36 A ana rw nto, om e General Rosecrans has written a letthig hauling by cheapening the ma, chine by which it isdone, lightens by, so much these burdens.» But the fail+ the products‘of labor, and thé nafrow gauge will cheapen its cost at least 30 per cent, and will cheapen the cost of hauling thereon about the same, say 30 percent, on the present expense. . .» dhe.econimic value.of these two effects in our country, will, in part, appear from the following: H. V. Poor in his ‘‘Manual of the Railroads of the United States” for 1868-9, compiled from official sources, speaking of the cost of ourrailroads to the close of 1867—amounting to 29,244 miles, says: ‘‘The for the, whole $1,600,000,000. A saving of 30 per cent on this sum would amount to 480,000,000, ‘Che annual interest af six per cent., or $28,800,000, would ter on narrow gauge roads in which . ‘road is the great hanling machine for] °° so by saying he was not supporting Haight, it was the Democratic party that he was supporting. We have a faint recollection that some months ago Mr. MeConnell, in his. able letter, ‘‘wrote Haight out of the Democratic party,”’ or in other words, proved he was-not a Democrat. Then Mr. McConnell apologized for the New Departure;and said the platform was sasdeptible of two interpretations. __He said if it meant to indorse the Fourteenth Amendment he was snet-for it; but if it only meant, as he claimed, to say these amendments were a part of the. Constitution the Democracy would submit to, only so long as they remained, then he accepted. He said the Courts could . Brown of that place, and Mrs. Mcbe a very low estimate for what the present railway gauges are taking unuecessarily from the profits of labor. But to this annual burden imposed by the unnecessary cost of our roads caused by the breadth of their gauges, must be added excessive cost of hauling thereon. On page 24th of the Manuel just quoted, the-author says: ‘The ratio of:gross. earnings to cost for the whole country may be taken at 21 per cent. Hence the railroads of the United States charge the people annually. for hauling 21 per cent, on sixteen hundred Millions, that is three hundred and. thirty-six million of dollars. Assuming what is susceptible of demonstration, that this hauling could be done for at least 30 per cent less on the narrow gauge, it follows that this gauge would save the public annually, on the cost of hauling, $100,800,000, Add to this the savilig of interest,$28,800,000 on first cost as above, makes the total annual savings $129,600,000. Hence the Industrial products of the country, including travel, are burdened by an annual tax of one hundred and twenty-nine millions six hundred thousand dollars, ($129, 600;000) more than it would cost to do the same work by the narrow gange. But, if this prodigious burden might have been saved by the use of the narrow gauge from the first, $100,800,000 of it can be saved annually by its use in the future. Will any statesman dare to say that taking the annual burden of one hundred millions from the business and industry of our country is a no small matter. not go behind the proclamation of the President and the Secretary of State. He then,after this acceptance, denounced the amendments as being conceived in fraud, and forced upon the country by Federal bayonets, thus forgetting his acceptance, and falling back upon old Democratic ground. This part of McConnell’s speech, boiled down,to our mind only means this: If the New Departure . of Vallandigham means anything, Democrats don’t accept it, if it does not mean apything they are for it. Thd-rhuckee Fire. ‘Fhe Nevada State Journal speaking of the Truckee fire says: Men and women worked with a will to check and hold in subjection the insatiate-monster; but vain were the efforts of puny man. Not until . sixty-eight buildings had fallen before him, and sixty-three families been rendered homeless, was the firey monster satisfied to quit his carnival of conquest. The entire absence of wind is all that saved any portion of the town. At last the fire was checked, but at what a cost! Let the blackened ruinstestify. Yesterday afternoon, in company With a friend, we surveyed the field and grew heart sick at the sight. It is-supposed that the fire was the work of an incendiary, and efforts are being made to ferret out and bring to justice the suspected party. The law does not provide a death penalty for the crime of arson, but should the author of all this desolation be. convicted, an outraged’ and impoverished community would, in our opinion, be justified in wreaking Secure your Tickets A On Saturday, Sept. 16th, 1871. ASSOCIATION, in aid of a Home for disabled Miners. —. —— $2.50 Coin, each. 1,501 Gold Coin the public. TION ON AMOUNT OF PRIZES. aid in a noble charity. } ereet in the vicinity of Grass Valley aHome. for disabled and superannuated Miners. The Home we propose to erect will be under the management and direction of the following well known gentlemen, Board of Trustees: Hon. Wm Watt, Hon Thos, Findley, A. B. Brady, -, Dudley Hoyt, Esq., and Martin Ford, + allof whom are residents of Grass Valley. If that were the only good to result from the work to which the promoters of the narrow gauges are contributing, it would be enough to warrant saying they were rendering a great service tothe people. But that is only the beginning of the good they are doing, Let ussee how. Poor’s Manuel shows that ‘‘should the States composing the present Union come to havea railway mileage averaging what Ohio already has” it would give us 145,800 miles. Can any one doubt we shall have that when we come to reckon the Territories left out of his count, that will have them and all the new railways yet to be builtin the old States and the new? What then will be the resulting saving in the use of the narrow gauge? Evidently as 39,244 miles is to $129,600,000, saving thereon, as would be 145,800 miles to the saving annually thereon, equal to $547,540,515, upwards of five hundred and Forty-seven millions five hundred and forty thousand dollarsa year! Marvelous and startling as this may appear, it is neither doubtful nor is the time distant of its realization. But even this annual saving to the future industry of the country of $547,000,000, by the thorough adop‘ion of the narrow gauge, 18 but a yart of the benefits to be secured thereby by the people. Thousands of localities will be reached by rail under the narrow gauge system, which ¢ould never hope for one under the present system. ) Suppose that this should result in br:nging 30,000 miles of railroad line where otherwise there would be none. A careful calculation borne out by the results of experience will show that the effect of running a line of railway tLrough any good agriculture] region, will increase the value of the land withih @ strip of ten miles wide on Ouzy ton Democratic papers in millions.of summary vengeance upon him.— Lack of space prevents our giving a lengthy chapter of the incidents and accidents that occurred. It is suffisome people having lost their all. This is the third heavy fire within the last six months, and it really seems as though Truckee was doomed. The people are preparing to rebuild, andsoon the burnt ¢istrict will be covered with houses again. “ Admits It. Col. E. J, Lewis, Esq., admitted that Gov. Haight made a raid on the Secret Service Fund for the Burnett monument, in his speech on Saturday night. He went further, and said had he, Col, Lewis, Esq., as Weller would say, been Governor he would have taken every dollar out of that fund and built Burnett a monument as white and pure as snow, that would reach to Heaven and tell his virtues. He forgot to tell the audience whether he would inscribe on the monument that it was erected Ly the Governor of the State. He thought it was an outrage to con.~ plain about Governor Haight taking $450 out of the fund. ——_—_—e The Democratic Meeting. The Democratic Meeting in this city on Satu:day night was not largely a.tended, and little enthusiasm manifested. Col. EB. J. Lewis, John R. McConne!l, ‘Wm. Watt, and A.

His face was considerably bruised and’ he received some internal iujuries, fortunately not of a serious character. Dr. Asay, of San Juan, was called upon to attend the injured man, who reports that Thomas will soon be able to be about again, ae Tue Eureka Sentinel tells of a gen-, uine ‘‘deserted village’ in Danville Mining District, some sixty miles south of Eureka. Five or six years ago the village was quite lively, and now ‘‘a death like stillness reigns; not even is this painful quietness rethe squack of a buzzard. The doors of the twelve unoccupied log cabins swing listless to and fro at the bidding of the fitful winds. The grass in the deserted village is now waist high, with no living soul to trample or recuperate upon its fattening virtues. There is a fine stream of water running through the town, and plenty of wood immediately surrounding this depopulated camp.”’ Some one informs the Sentinel that. hefound plenty of ore that would mill $100 per ton. . __Without Delay !

Poor in his ‘‘Manual of the Railroads of the United States” for 1868-9, compiled from official sources, speaking of the cost of ourrailroads to the close of 1867—amounting to 29,244 miles, says: ‘‘The for the, whole $1,600,000,000. A saving of 30 per cent on this sum would amount to 480,000,000, ‘Che annual interest af six per cent., or $28,800,000, would ter on narrow gauge roads in which . ‘road is the great hanling machine for] °° so by saying he was not supporting Haight, it was the Democratic party that he was supporting. We have a faint recollection that some months ago Mr. MeConnell, in his. able letter, ‘‘wrote Haight out of the Democratic party,”’ or in other words, proved he was-not a Democrat. Then Mr. McConnell apologized for the New Departure;and said the platform was sasdeptible of two interpretations. __He said if it meant to indorse the Fourteenth Amendment he was snet-for it; but if it only meant, as he claimed, to say these amendments were a part of the. Constitution the Democracy would submit to, only so long as they remained, then he accepted. He said the Courts could . Brown of that place, and Mrs. Mcbe a very low estimate for what the present railway gauges are taking unuecessarily from the profits of labor. But to this annual burden imposed by the unnecessary cost of our roads caused by the breadth of their gauges, must be added excessive cost of hauling thereon. On page 24th of the Manuel just quoted, the-author says: ‘The ratio of:gross. earnings to cost for the whole country may be taken at 21 per cent. Hence the railroads of the United States charge the people annually. for hauling 21 per cent, on sixteen hundred Millions, that is three hundred and. thirty-six million of dollars. Assuming what is susceptible of demonstration, that this hauling could be done for at least 30 per cent less on the narrow gauge, it follows that this gauge would save the public annually, on the cost of hauling, $100,800,000, Add to this the savilig of interest,$28,800,000 on first cost as above, makes the total annual savings $129,600,000. Hence the Industrial products of the country, including travel, are burdened by an annual tax of one hundred and twenty-nine millions six hundred thousand dollars, ($129, 600;000) more than it would cost to do the same work by the narrow gange. But, if this prodigious burden might have been saved by the use of the narrow gauge from the first, $100,800,000 of it can be saved annually by its use in the future. Will any statesman dare to say that taking the annual burden of one hundred millions from the business and industry of our country is a no small matter. not go behind the proclamation of the President and the Secretary of State. He then,after this acceptance, denounced the amendments as being conceived in fraud, and forced upon the country by Federal bayonets, thus forgetting his acceptance, and falling back upon old Democratic ground. This part of McConnell’s speech, boiled down,to our mind only means this: If the New Departure . of Vallandigham means anything, Democrats don’t accept it, if it does not mean apything they are for it. Thd-rhuckee Fire. ‘Fhe Nevada State Journal speaking of the Truckee fire says: Men and women worked with a will to check and hold in subjection the insatiate-monster; but vain were the efforts of puny man. Not until . sixty-eight buildings had fallen before him, and sixty-three families been rendered homeless, was the firey monster satisfied to quit his carnival of conquest. The entire absence of wind is all that saved any portion of the town. At last the fire was checked, but at what a cost! Let the blackened ruinstestify. Yesterday afternoon, in company With a friend, we surveyed the field and grew heart sick at the sight. It is-supposed that the fire was the work of an incendiary, and efforts are being made to ferret out and bring to justice the suspected party. The law does not provide a death penalty for the crime of arson, but should the author of all this desolation be. convicted, an outraged’ and impoverished community would, in our opinion, be justified in wreaking Secure your Tickets A On Saturday, Sept. 16th, 1871.

The Home we propose to erect will be under the management and direction of the following well known gentlemen, Board of Trustees: Hon. Wm Watt, Hon Thos, Findley, A. B. Brady, -, Dudley Hoyt, Esq., and Martin Ford, + allof whom are residents of Grass Valley. If that were the only good to result from the work to which the promoters of the narrow gauges are contributing, it would be enough to warrant saying they were rendering a great service tothe people. But that is only the beginning of the good they are doing, Let ussee how. Poor’s Manuel shows that ‘‘should the States composing the present Union come to havea railway mileage averaging what Ohio already has” it would give us 145,800 miles. Can any one doubt we shall have that when we come to reckon the Territories left out of his count, that will have them and all the new railways yet to be builtin the old States and the new? What then will be the resulting saving in the use of the narrow gauge? Evidently as 39,244 miles is to $129,600,000, saving thereon, as would be 145,800 miles to the saving annually thereon, equal to $547,540,515, upwards of five hundred and Forty-seven millions five hundred and forty thousand dollarsa year! Marvelous and startling as this may appear, it is neither doubtful nor is the time distant of its realization. But even this annual saving to the future industry of the country of $547,000,000, by the thorough adop‘ion of the narrow gauge, 18 but a yart of the benefits to be secured thereby by the people. Thousands of localities will be reached by rail under the narrow gauge system, which ¢ould never hope for one under the present system. ) Suppose that this should result in br:nging 30,000 miles of railroad line where otherwise there would be none. A careful calculation borne out by the results of experience will show that the effect of running a line of railway tLrough any good agriculture] region, will increase the value of the land withih @ strip of ten miles wide on Ouzy ton Democratic papers in millions.of summary vengeance upon him.— Lack of space prevents our giving a lengthy chapter of the incidents and accidents that occurred. It is suffisome people having lost their all. This is the third heavy fire within the last six months, and it really seems as though Truckee was doomed. The people are preparing to rebuild, andsoon the burnt ¢istrict will be covered with houses again. “ Admits It. Col. E. J, Lewis, Esq., admitted that Gov. Haight made a raid on the Secret Service Fund for the Burnett monument, in his speech on Saturday night. He went further, and said had he, Col, Lewis, Esq., as Weller would say, been Governor he would have taken every dollar out of that fund and built Burnett a monument as white and pure as snow, that would reach to Heaven and tell his virtues. He forgot to tell the audience whether he would inscribe on the monument that it was erected Ly the Governor of the State. He thought it was an outrage to con.~ plain about Governor Haight taking $450 out of the fund. ——_—_—e The Democratic Meeting.

Five or six years ago the village was quite lively, and now ‘‘a death like stillness reigns; not even is this painful quietness rethe squack of a buzzard. The doors of the twelve unoccupied log cabins swing listless to and fro at the bidding of the fitful winds. The grass in the deserted village is now waist high, with no living soul to trample or recuperate upon its fattening virtues. There is a fine stream of water running through the town, and plenty of wood immediately surrounding this depopulated camp.”’ Some one informs the Sentinel that. hefound plenty of ore that would mill $100 per ton. . __Without Delay !
