oenus a aa ~ . The Daily Transcript . NEVADA CITYX,. CAL. Friday November 18, 1874. EE FA \ A Right Move. “Avapecial to the Chicago Times " gays, thatthere isto be a general hoisting of ‘corrupt office-holders and an effort at purification of thé Republican party. commenced in Texas just before the election, is tobe continued in_all the Southern States, and as far as necessary in the North. The Col-; lector of the Port-of Charleston is to bethe first victim, and Casey and Marshal Packard, of Louisiana are al so to be displaced. Such resolves SRaque well for -the future of the country The only wonder is, that if ‘iran: n are unfit for the position why they:have not before been deprived of ition. If their removal now is necessary to the purification’ of the party it} would seem to have been goods policy” to rid the party of them before the elections. It shows that bad coutsels have hitherto prevailed and ‘that the late defeat at the polls has . aroused the administration, or the leaders of the Republican party toa ‘knowledge ofthe necessity existing for reform, Itis one of the fruits of the revolution and is a gratifying fact to all who are interested in the welfare of the country. If the dozen SCnators who have demanded~such ‘action had héretofore acted in a similar manner, the late defeat ‘of their party would not haye been realized; _ but if they will continue theire fforts, a reform may be brought’ ubout which will redound greatly to the benefit ofthe vountry and to the advantage of tits Republican. party. Rich Mii The San Luis Tribune says: The ‘Oceanic have cross cut their lode in the lower tunnel 167 feet below the Cederberg tunnel, and show at that depth a vein of ore literally alive with Cinnibar and native Mercury 14 feet in width. “Lhey are at the presenttime drifting west; have made about 18 feet in the last Ten days, the ore continuing as rich and probably better than either in the Cederberg north tunnel, or main drift. Tis admitted by all who have examined this mine that there never was 80 iwnuch values developed in a new mine in so short a time, with so _little labor, The farnace will be in operation about the 20th of this} month, Dr. Cochrane, the Superintendent, is now in San Francisco forwarding supplies etc.,: for the ‘Winter. The mine is valued at over a million of dollars, and the largest owner in it is Marks Zellerbach, ‘of Nevada county, Litesary ‘ial: A Committee of the Literary So‘ciety will call upon the citizens today for the purpose of disposing of «tickets admitting the bearer to the meetings of the society during the season, There will be about sixteen meetings, and the prices of tickets are as follows: Family tickets $1 50. Single tickets $1. The committee wish it distinctly understood that-their mission is nota begging scheme. Those who do not ._.Wish to procure tickets are not expected toinvest. It is believed. the entertainment will be well worth the money. If the amount raised by the sale of séason tickets is found sufficient there will be no admission charged at the door. fi wot, then ‘the small sum of twenty-five ceats will be charged.

M., instead of at half past five. » Let co Taat Hotp.—The Nevada Tuanscript a few days. ago nominated John H. dewett,of Marysville as a first class candidate for the Repubcans for Governor of California, The Marysville Appeal of Tuesday speaks in such a-way that our friend and neighbor ofNevada city will have: to.let go that hold. The Appeal says: ‘TRANSCRIPT Names John H, Jewett, of this city, as a popular, man for Govetnor. Does the Transenrpr know that our popular citizen tsa strong Independent, and one of the Bizongest Booth men jin the State? If wevwere the TRANSCRIPT we would swear that the Jewett we een lived in Monterey or Mud Springs.. Grass~ ee Union. We were of the opinion that Mi Jewett was a Republican, and we only have the Appeal’s authority that he is not, and that authority is very bad. . We believe Mr. Jewett is ‘a Republican, and will act with the party in the future. If not, he had better emigrate to Mud or Smith’s Elixir Sprfngs. Important Law.—The following améndment to the Penal Code of this State, passed at the last session of the Legislature, May not be generally known. and we-publish it, by request, as a matter ef importance: “Sec. 336. Every owner, lessee or keeper of any house used in-whole, or in part, as @ saloon or drinking place, who knowingly ‘permits any person under twenty-one years. of age to pluy at any game of chance therein,is guilty of a misdeameanor.” We rather think this closes boys out from all such games as pedro, Hean-poker, pool, seil-out and other like games, in public salodns. Ge. ¥. Union, VisaL1a.—Speaking of its town;the Visalia ‘Times says: ‘Visalia has now a population of nearly 2,500,and as to the permanency of its prosperity it is absolutely certain, as there is the best agricultural region snrrounding it in ‘the State, and systems of irrigation are so far consummated that there is no doubt about the future developments of the county and the almost unlimited re sources. Railroad facilities have opened up until we are in direct communication with the .world, and ‘svon the Southern Pacific railroad will traverse through Avizona and New Mexico, and onward to the East, with which we will hafe direct connection,’”’ Mas. Isabella Maréten, wife of the pastor of the Methodist Episcopal church at Truckee, died suddeuly on Thursday.

Bee. : Varn Remonsrrances.—It is really refreshing to witness the struggles of the discomfited Independent Press to make somebody believe that they have any share in the new political deal, They gravely expostulate with the Democrats for indulging in jubilations Over their victories, and-ntimate that if only the unterrified comprehended the. situation they would see that this was an ‘‘Opposition,’’ not a “Democratic triumph. ‘Yo this kind of babbte the plain and sufficient Answer'must that there’ is nu political organization ‘in the United States called the Paid thin tion;’”’ that there is a. Democratic Party, and that since the recent victories were brought’ about by the voting of Democratic tickets, they are properly called Democratic victories, and cannot be properly called anything:else. The Independent papers represeut a movement which is not only dead bat buried, and they might as well realize the fact at once and abandon their preposterous efferts to pursuade the Democracy that it ought to take the name of the recently interred corpse. Besides, it id now several days since the Independent. Party was buried, and ‘behold, it stinketh,”’—Reeord.

We think their pastors should overhaul them. We call the attention of Elders Hillery, Young and Triplett to this subject. Mrsinc Parent Reorrvep.—After many vexatious and expensive delays, Mr. Hiram H.
