Not a Political Office. The Trinity Journal says: “There is a-petition in circulation in Nevada county, being signed by almost every one, irrespective of purty, asking the several conventions, not to nominate candidates for County or District Judge, but to indorse Caldwell for the former aod Reardan forthe latter. Caldwellis a Republican, Reardan a Democrat. ‘Tuis.is as it should be. We do not believe in an elective judicitry at all, as Findley of Nevada would certainly be nominated for Goveruer. His comparatively small vote in the Convention, therefore, caused much surprise, and many asked, *‘why 18 this?” I am informed pon good authority that his nominatioa would have been assured but for. one cireumstance. Mr. Findley had openly stated that’in his opinion the Legislature should haye control over all the railways of the State; thatin the exercise of its duty it should pass an act regulating the rates of transportatiow on such roads; and furthermore that railways should be compelled to pay their jast and equal share of the State taxes. The day Defore the Convention assembled, a man very closely connected in intereat with the managers of the Central Pacific, a Democrat, cajled on Mr. Findley and showed bim a letter in ’ which he was promised the vote of a certain county upon condition that he (Findley) would retract the above written opinion as to the power and duty of the Legislature in regard to ’ pailroads, Findley declined to do .#o0,and the result was his defeat. Every, man whom the Pacitic Kail. road.gould control in the Convention voted against him, and for that more pliable creature of the corporation, Wilham Irwin, the man of weak back-bone and vacillating judgment. ‘Professor Catr. “We ropeat that everything seems ‘to conspire toward the triumphant election of Prof. Carr to the office of State Superintendent. of Public ‘Schools. It is reported that Parson Fitzgerald says of himself, that he is momipated for the highest office in bit if we do elect them, the candidates should be as far removed as possible from the political «aldion.”’ The Journal's logic is good, aud we believe nine-tenths of the people would prefer that the political opinions of a judicial candidate should not be considered. There were petions printed in this o ounty, but at the request of Judge Caldwell they were. circulated. Hethaught it ‘wight Took like an effoit o% his part to forestall the action of the Deimocratic Convention, aad he is not anxious enough for the office to have such an impression entertained. We . believe, however, that both of the gentlemen will be endorsed by both conventions.’ : Advertised Letters. : The following letters remain in the Post Office, ‘in this city, for the week ending Monday, July Sth, 1875, . ‘ —— H.

His comparatively small vote in the Convention, therefore, caused much surprise, and many asked, *‘why 18 this?” I am informed pon good authority that his nominatioa would have been assured but for. one cireumstance. Mr. Findley had openly stated that’in his opinion the Legislature should haye control over all the railways of the State; thatin the exercise of its duty it should pass an act regulating the rates of transportatiow on such roads; and furthermore that railways should be compelled to pay their jast and equal share of the State taxes. The day Defore the Convention assembled, a man very closely connected in intereat with the managers of the Central Pacific, a Democrat, cajled on Mr. Findley and showed bim a letter in ’ which he was promised the vote of a certain county upon condition that he (Findley) would retract the above written opinion as to the power and duty of the Legislature in regard to ’ pailroads, Findley declined to do .#o0,and the result was his defeat. Every, man whom the Pacitic Kail. road.gould control in the Convention voted against him, and for that more pliable creature of the corporation, Wilham Irwin, the man of weak back-bone and vacillating judgment. ‘Professor Catr. “We ropeat that everything seems ‘to conspire toward the triumphant election of Prof. Carr to the office of State Superintendent. of Public ‘Schools.
