The H. Bs Alleged Convention.
An effort was made to hold a Con;
vention in. this city yesterday for
the purpose of electing delegatés to
attend the New Constitution Party
State Convention at Sacramento.—
The affair fell so far short of being
even a moderate success that it was
an ignominious failure, and carried
with it thé assurance that the H.
B’s party is still-born so far asNevada county is concerned. It was to"
have met at Workingmen’s . Hall at
ila. m., but half an hour after. that
time elapsed before enough of the
faithful had put in an appearance to
make any showing at all. At 11:30
there were twenty-five men inthe
Hall, about one-fourth of whom were
staunch members of opposing parties, and had dropped in to see the
fun. “Johu I. Caldwell, Esq., called
the meeting to order. C. Conaway of Grass Valley, was elected
President ; Jacob. Naffziger, Vice
nominated Secretary, but declined to
serve, and Wm. Powell was elected
to that office. These gentlemen were
declared the officers of the permanent orgauization which it was decided to form. A Committee on Cre. dentials, Order of Business and Resalutieas was appointed. It consisted ef W. D: Wodda of Grass Valley;
» issue his certificate. He is a geutle-. anq John [. Caldwell and John T. .
Lewis of this city. After being in.
session fifteen minutes the Convention adjourned till 1:30 o’clock Pp. M.

North Bloomfield, N. B. Parrazett,
R. D. Skidmore, A. J. Ross, C. H.
‘lilton, Win. Holsclaw. As will be
seen, the great majority of the above,
delegates were represented by proxier,
Order of Business: Selection of six
delegates to attend State and District Conventions of New Constitution Party to be held in Sacramento
. on the 25th instant.The appointment of a Count)’ Central Committee
consisting of six members — from
Nevada, 5 from Grass Valley, 2 from

Workingmen and H. B.’s have one
éommon aim in — and the victory of May 7th was pbtained through
a combination of the forees, co-operation for filling State, District and
county offices at the next election-is
earnestly advised.
An amendment to the Committee's
report was submitted by W. D.
Long, Esq.,.in the shape of a resolution advising that the delegates
from this Convention to the State
Convention be at liberty to select
from the Workingmen’s ticket as
many of their nominees for State offices as may be found desirable ; and
also that sail delegates use all honorable means to bring about an amieable settlement of the ditferences

That Rene Editor's Case." ‘The editor of the Reno Gazette has
made an ass:of himeelf by publishing this item :
-The Nevada TRANSCRIPT continually copies from the Gazette without
crédit, and not satisfied with stealing the items, credits them invariably to the Journal. [fit is not stopped we will publish something that
the TRANSCRIPT will neither be disposed to steal_nor credit to any other
paper.
The Transcript has not contained
an item (except a single advertisement) originally appearing in the
Gazette for many weeks, It has never credited any article to the Journal that was written for the Gazette.
“We will wager any sum of money
from $100 to $500 that the facts bear
out our assertions on this subject.
Now let the bravado put “up or shut
up. Ina friendly sort of way he is
advised to recollect hereafter that
there is such a thing as barking up
the wrong tree. For the sake of arPresident ; W. D.-Long, Esq-;"was}Gament, we are willing to assume
that the Gazette HAS been wronged
by the Transcrirt, and inyite the
former to publish that “‘something”
he hints at,—that is, unless he feels
like acknowledging his error.

Friday Night atthe Theatre.
The Bergers and Sol Smith Russel had a fair-sized audience when
they appeared ‘at the Theatre Friday evening. Among the most entertaining numbers of the programme
were the masterly personations of
Russel, who kept the listeners in
good humur from first to last; Miss
Anna Teresa Berger’s exquisitely
rendered cornet solos; Miss Louise
Kemlo’s vocal selections, and the
bell ringing. -Every feature was
chaste, and a more thoroughly skilled combination -of artists are not to
be found.

Probably net Trac.
It was reported in the city yesterday that a son of G. W. Baldwin had
fallen from the V Flume and received fatal injuries. As none of the employes of the Company knew any-.
thing about such an accident when
communicated with through the telephone, the report is probably a ¢anard, which owes its origin to the fact
that a man named J. S. Jack, who
had been at work at the Fiume mill
. was-stricken down with typhoid fever Thursday and sent to the Hospital for treatment.
><:Poor Brothers’ Claim.
_ The Poor Brothers, whose claim is
above Blue Tent, have recently
struck into some very rich gravel
and are drifting. They have engaged water from the South Yuba Canal
Company to make a clean-up soon,

. Hamilton's Whoop-up.
Here are a couple of smggestive references to Plug Hat Brigadier Hamilton’s H. B. whoop-up in Nevada
county:
Leonidas Hamilton, the apostle -of
the New Constitution Pasty was not
very successful.in his efforts to organize a club :at this place. The
mass meeting called for Tuesday evening was a lamentable failure, not
over thirty persons ‘being present.
here -was no enthusiasm among
those present. Those called upon to
express their opinion regarding the
new party seemed to be ina state of
great perplexity and doubt as to the
success of the movement. In can be
postively asserted that the H. B's.
will poll a. remarkably small vote in
‘Truckee and in fact throughout Nevada county.—Truckee Republican.
San Juan, Cal., June, 18.
‘Eprror Atta: The San Francisco Chronicle, of last Saturday, contains a long dispatch from this place [
(North San Juan), relative to a meeving of the H. B’s. onthe evening preLeonidas Hamilton.
That dispatch to the contrary, the
meeting was a signal failure. _There
was no Club organization, for the
very good reason that when Hamilton, at the close of the meeting, earnestly requested the friends of the
new movement to come up to the
etand and sign a call for a club, nobody went, and there was not at
that time, nor since,any intention
to organize a club. In fact the material is wofully lacking. Kearney
the rump panty here have not sufficient stremgth to even muster a cor&
poral’s guard. At the aseeting aforesaid, there was no President or active officer to preside, for» mo one
would act. Hamsilton was the only
person to act, and he is the author of
the dispatch above mentioned. The
Republicans are up and moving, and
here and in Nevada connty this Fall.

The ‘‘Miners’ County Ticket.”
The last issue of the Cherokee
National contains a letter from Grass .
Valleyin which the writer vouclsafes the following evidently original
information: The movement to
nominate a Citizens’ ticket in -this
county to run against’the Workingmen, is gaining strength. It will
probably be called ‘*‘The Miner's
County ticket” or some such taking
name. The slate; Iam told, includes
nominating Reardan for Superior
Judge, Gaylord for District Attorney, .
Searls for Senate, Ed. Coleman, E.
Bond and some Democrat for Assembly, Roberts will ‘‘take his chances”
for Congressional nomination. White
and Payne will be renominated and
the balance of nominations given to
the Republicans, The rumor is given
for what it is worth, but is doubtless
true in many particulars. It is understood that allthe seven delegates
that haveattended the Workingmen’s
State Convention are willing to take
nominations for county offices from
their Party.
_A Secret System.
{ Everyone has heard of the secret
police system in Russia—-the most
wonderful in the world. Social resorts, stores, markets, all are under
their eontrol. » Secret agents are
found everywhere. The universities
and high schools literally swarm
with then. They are generally recruited among such of the students
as show a decided tendency toward
‘“‘smartness” and are not over burdened by an exaggerated feeling of
honor. A handsome monthly salary
is offered to them on condition that
they will report all that happens
amid the turbulent youths of the
schools. A man who-has once been
reported as suspicious is virtually
fost in Russia In every caréer
which he attempts, to follow, he will
be stopped by an invisibfé hand,
-and he will be put out of the way
one for all at the very first opportunity.
De Successful Men Advertise?
Foran answer to the above question, we submit the follow ing extract
from the San Francisco Call:
Advertising must accomplish wonders, or so much money would not
be expended in this way. We have
long realized that any.capable_person could build up.a fair business by
judicious advertfng, for we have
seen such great results brought about
through its means. 1t has, however,
been a surprise to ns, how a theatrical manager could afford to expend
five Lundred dollars for an advertisement in a single number of a
journal like the Call) Yet the agent
