. tained the following: The Daily Transevipt. NEVADA CITY, CALIFORAIA. aa ~~ Saturday, October 30, 1880. —— A Democratic Opinicn, The New York Sun, which has carefully noted the Garfield forgery, said in Wednesday morning’s issue: “Garfield is not at least as vile oF detestable as he who in order to de~ feat Garfield, forges a “letter in. bis name. The heaven-born principles of Democracy, the doctrines of liberty, of equal rights, of exact justice, freed no leprous support ftom falsi* fiers and forgers. True Democrats pant for victory ior the sake of their own countryinen and not for the ygkce-of oppressed humanity throughefit. the world; butte be glorious it must be a victory nobly won, with God aud not the devil at its right hand.” ss The same paper of Thursday con~ “Forgery, technically, the manufacture of the letter falsely attributed to Garfield, may not be. The bare actmay not exactly constitute that crime, and the-vilest of eriminals.must_not be puni-hed illegally. But we do not. see why the chargeof criminal lib.} against the maker, who afterward called Gartield a liar because he de~ nied the authership, cannot be maintained. If he can. be punished legally, no person more richly deserves to pay the severest of penalties.” “Wr HAVE THE SAME RIGHT TO PROTECT OURSELVES FROM bEING OVERGUN BY ALIKN HORDES }RoM ASIA As AGAINST GRASSHOPPERS OR ANY OTHER THREATENEL DANGER.” —James A. Garfield’s opinion ou the Chinese question. > 2 A Democratic Confession. Most people interested ia mines * hereabouts know who I. M, Ho’comb of New York city is: For the bene~ fit of those who do not, we will say that he visited this city recently,and spent some time examining various mines and secured aninterest in severe al properties. He is a man of means, intelligence and honesty, and made many warm friends during his Stay. His principal. fault consists in the fact that he is an uncompromising Democrat, and has always been one so far.as his record’ can be traced. During the past twenty years of Democratic disaster he has universally ‘been hopeful, and no matter how gloomy the outlook he always protested that his party was just on the eve of victory. This year, in common with other honest Democrats-for there are some honest{Demleft—Mr, Holcomb sees the handwriting on the wall, In a private letter to a friend here, received yesterday, he says: “Hancock stock is very low here {in New York] at present, but we hope to raise it some by Tuesday.” VOTE THE STRAIGHT RE PUBLICAN TICKET. Plain Solid South Tatk. —— A recent issue of the Meriden, Miss., Mercury contains the following extracts: ‘‘Make no miore cowardly concessions that Sedession was revolution and folly; ne more selfaccusations of having committed treason, The people of the North refuse to believe us and affect to believe, if we could control the Government to any extent, to such extent we would impair it, Then let us cease to concern ourselves -about the National credit, neither upholding or pulling it down ;so if it can stand without our active concern about it, let it stand, and welcome, and if it can’t, let it fall and be damaed. Discourage the idea that a # position in the Federal Govetnment is higher than in the State Governmest. LKlevate the State pride ua-— til one feels it more honorable to be a Mississippian than a.citizen of. the United States,” -Tuere ARK hundreds of good, honest Democrats in-the State who have been voting the party ticket as au matter of course, and who don’t know what has been going on in the inside, One by one these are ascertainitig the facts, and the more they see the more are they surprised that shey have remained members of the apostate Democratic party. ‘It is not the same party that they joined, aud they are giad to get out of it. **He [Hancock] is a very weak and very ambitious man.”—Gen. Grant. ‘vide for the protection of both minTHURSDAY NIGHT'S MEETING. The Speeches of Senators Sears and Conger — Some Pewertul Arge* thents Eleqaently Presented. The Republican meeting in’ this city Thursday evening was called to order by. E. Bond, . The following officers Were elected:' Chas E. Mulloy, Chairman; J. B. Patterson, AY A. Smith, Joseph Thomas, and ‘Joseph Worrel, Vice Presidents; Leonard §. Calkins, Secretary. Hon. W. H. Sears, who. previous to 1865 was a resident of Nevada county and represented out people in the -fegistature, -was the first speaker He said he was-glad to see the Republicans still supporting the noble principles of their party with the. same earnestness. and prospects of success that they did in early days. The approaching election was one of great importance for local as ‘well as national reasons. ‘Three Assemblymen were to_be elected to assist in legislating on the debris question, which would surely come up It is the understanding that the General Government will heféafter proers and farmers from the resul's of the evil. Republicanadministrations naturally favored the doctrines of internal improvements. A Republican United Senator, whose election depends on ‘our sending Republican Assemblymen to Sacramento, would have gentiine influence with the adniinistration, which would surely be of this grave prob'em, Mr. Sears ‘further pointed out the fact that General Miller commanded the Union forces at the battle of Stone River, and that Terry, who won his repntation in this State by murdering Broderick, commanded a portion of the Rebels. Now one was an elector on the Republican ticket, the other on the Democratic. Broderick [ was ostracised from the Democratic party because he proclaimed that he could not vote for anything but freedom and free labor in the territories, and he was murdered because he entertained those views. “Terry’s fellow. candidates were of the same stripe that he was, while the Republican nominees were all loyal men. In joint discussion with Judge Wallace the other night Mr. Sears . had, charged the Democracy with extravagance in administrating public affairs; with being responsible for the presence of the Chinese, and with endeavoring to break up the Union. Mr. Wallace made a lame reply on the point regarding the Chinese, and failed to. refer to any of the others. The speaker went on at considerable length to ably discuss these various points, and plainly demonstrated the Democratic party to be anything but the friend of free labor, white or black. He coneluded by saying it looked as though the Republicans had bought Ohio and Indiana for $329, and that all the Northern States were to be thrown in. ~ Sectional animosity should be ‘stopped; but the bleudy shirt, which is the symbol of national integrity must not be buried till there is free speech and a fair ballot in the South. Hon. C. C, Conger, Workingmen’s Senator from San Francisco, was the next-epeaker. He said he was here as-a representative of the best interests of the Worki: gmen’s Party of California. The Nation was at stake now, however, and it behooved him and every other loyal citizen to unite with the party of freedom that was striving to preserve the Union. He had vote! the National Republican ticket for twenty years past, and would continne to vote it fill this main issue was settled. He claimed the same right to be with the Republicaus in. this fight that other Workingmen did to be with the Democracy which latter party first, last and all the time opposed the welfare ani independence of the laboring classes, °Mauy of the principles proclaimed by Hancock for campaign purposes wete directly against those of the party that nominated him. Bat no man could deny tat if elected the Democracy would run Han= cock instead of vice versa. Gartield said he was opposed to the Chinese, . Hancovk said nothing. State legislation had been tried“in this matter and failed, and unless the commission now in China succeeded, Congress must break the treaty. Mr. Conger gave many substantial reasous why the Democratic party had no cluims on the Workingmen, and made a brief but powerful argument in favor of Republicanism, The meeting adjourned with nine enthusiastic cheers. ‘Aa attempt was made while. the meeting was closing to get up three cheers for Hancock, but the hurrahs were stillborn, Accessories After the Fact. The New York Tribune of Thureday says: ™ og The arrest of the s@called journalisf'connected with the mewspaper which published the forged Chinese letter is the result of some days of excellent.deteetive work. The evidence that this man forged the letter there seems to be reason to hope that he will pay the penalty of his crime im composing a malicious libel ‘pon Garfield. This much should be done in the interest of public de¢ency. . But after all, how inade~ quate such punishment will be when contrasted with the offense. ‘The im: prisonment of an obscure newspaper writer will atone for his crime, but] what shall be said of his accessuries after the fact, who are to be numbered by thousands, and some of whom stand high in, the community? Tie Democratic National Committee participated in this man’s crime. ‘Knowing that Garfield denounced the letter as a forgery, they persist— ed in publishing it broadcast, even’ ‘after it had been proved by every evidenee which would have been competent in a Court of law that Garfield could not have written it. . Demoeratie-newspap-cs-of the best} rank assisted this shameless political havesbeen rega-ded as. just toward Garfield, followed their This, man Philp General mean example. Republican, in securing a solut on ought, certainly td go to jail, but the . 4.1.6 the suggestion into considera demands of justice would -be fully satisfied only upon sending the managers of the Democratic National Committee and a few dozen newspaper editors along with him. o— = ‘‘WE HAVE THE SAME RIGHT TO VROTECT OURSELVES }ROM BEING OVERRUN BY ALIN HORLEY FROM ASIA AS AGAINST URASSHOPPERS OR ANY OTHER THREATENED DANGER.” —James A.

Let me explain, Last year the newConatitutionists and Workingmen combined, some of whom were Workingmen and some of whom wWere new Constitutionists, ‘‘bilks” as Kearney called them, Among these new Constitutionists were Conaway for Senator and Sweetland.for Assemblyman. After getting the nomination Conaway fought like a man for the ticket, but Sweetland went to work to put upa ‘‘trade combination” of several candidates on different tickets, the result of which was the defeat of A. R. Lord and others of the Workingmen’s candidates. It is notorious that Sweetland did nothing for the success of the party who nominated him last Fall, and repu. diated them in Sacramento. As to his advocacy of the debris settlement, those who ksow him best consider that he did nothing more than to come near making the debris bill ridiculous by using it to advertise himself. TRUTH. N.

Nasby gets at the tariff question in & much handier way than the great ‘‘Superb.” Nasby don’t take to the idea that itis a ‘local issue,” gotten up somewhere in Pennsylvania. He says: ‘‘We want a Dimocratic Congress tha} will rip thander out ov the tariff and let the South, wich isn’t gifted in manufacturers, sell her cotton in Europe, and git her goods, wich is made by pauper labor there, at pauper labor prices. The hauty South hez paid triboot to the Manufacturin North long enuf. ᤀ —_ Says the Globe-Democrat: ‘They used to say.of Gen. Scott, when he was a candidate for President, that if any person would stick a feather in him where it would do the most good for exhibition purposes, he would strut himself to death. What was true of the candidate of 1852. is more true of his namesake candidate jot 1880.” is believed to be overwhelming, and . } -cock-on_the Chinese question, ‘ane -hese the franchise, and swamp the crime, and Democratic orators * who shnse 6f blaod-hourids to. track the . the best detective officers for years The South Wants: Chinese Immigration, ‘The project’of at once bringing ten thousand Chinese coolies from Cuba to Louisiana is n> longer a secret. It is now openlydiscussed and admitted to be true. The solid South wants Chinese labor ; it also wants the votes of th: workingmen of Califo-nia to enable its Congressmen and Senators to change the naturalization law and enable coolies to vote their employers’ ticket. When this has been accomplished there will be no greater respect paid to the. “‘poor whites” of the Pacific slope. than there was to the “poor whites” of the ou slave States. The Chinese vote will more than counterbalance their political influence, which, in @ short time, would cease to exist, be~ cause they would be starved out.— Bearing in mind the silence of Hanthe contracts for coolies by Southern 1 planters, it is the manifest purpose
of the Democratie party to encourage Chinese immigration, give the Chimudsills of creation. > ee Why Net?

As Wells, Fargo & €o.-are the greatest losers by the highwaymen, perhaps it would be well for. that firm to tion. . It might be money made by them to purchase thirty or forty bloodhounds and have them stationed on the routes most-frequently attacked by these road agents, whose depredations often defy the skill of and frequently for all time. If that firm should see fit to adopt this suggestion, it would not be necessary to advertise the fact.
