SUNDAY, MAY 21, 1871.
ae
The'State Convention. —
The State Republican Convention
has been called to meet at Sacramento
on the 28th day of June. Both parties
are now organizing for the contest, and
it seems to be the desire among Republican that a ticket, unexceptionable
should be placed in nomination. With
such a ticket, the party can enter the
field confident of success.
There is among the masses of Republicans every where, a_deep interest felt
in the contest. In the last campaign
many were indifferent-and remained
away from the polls or voted the Dem~
ocratic ticket,in the hope that a change
of administration would be an im‘provement. The work of the last Legs
islature and the course of the Demox
cratic administration has caused such
deeply to regret the dissention of
party, and there is a determination now
to’ make amends by entering the cams
paign for an earnest fight under the
old flag of Republicanism. There is no
disposition to engage in factional contests for the nomination of favorites,
but .a general desire to nominate as
candidates the very best men for State
and county offices.
In,the interior, and. we believe in
the State, Booth is undoubtedly the favorite among the masses of the people
for the Governorship, and he will in
all probability receive the nominoation, For other State officers, at least
—in Nevada county, no—preference has
been expressed, In this Second District Sargent is the most popular man
for Congress, and in Nevada county
he will bave no epposition. For county
officers a number df good mien have
been named, and we have heretofore
given them in ‘there columns. Others
will undoubtedly be announced after
the call is issued for the Convention,
and for State and county officers we
shall have a number of goud men to
select from. ‘
Let'the Republicans throughout the
county buckle on the armor and get
ready for the contest. A sound plattorm, good candidates and untiring effort will result in triumph of the party
in the coming election.

Whe Household Tonic.
The efficacy of Hostetter’s Celebrated
Stomach Bifters ag a rpecific for recruiting
the enfeebled body and cheering the desponding mind has passed into a proverb. In
the United States, where this marvelons
tonic has borne down all opposition and
eclipsed all rivalry, the demand for it has
annually increased in a heavier and heavier
ratio for years, until at last, the regular sales
of this preparation exceed thore of all other
stomachics combined. Eminent members of
the medical profession and hospital surgeons
without number, have candidly admitted that
the pharmacopaeia of the faculty contains no
prescription that produces such beneficial effects in dyspepsia, general uebility and uervous diseases, as Hostetter’s Bitters. ‘'o.use
