THE DEMOCRATS. urday Night. ent. Frank Power called the meeting to order. A. B. Dibble was chosen chairman, and the following gentlemen served as vice presidents: Geo. Fletcher, J. O. Sweetland, John Montgomery, T. C. McGagin and H. Wisner. : ; Marion Biggs, candidate for Congressman from this District, was the first speaker. He opened by saying some pretty things about the ladies present and then settled down to business by asserting that the Democratic party represented today the same principles it did in 1801. He reviewed the history of Thomas Jefferson, and declaréd himself in favor of the same sort of civil service reform which that gentleman had outlined in proclaiming the doctrine that to the victors belong the spoils. It was his custom to get all the melons L@ could when he got into a melon patch. He had always observed tat a house divided against itself could not stand, vet.ifan offensive partisan held a government position inthis city he would not demand the turning out of the rascal before his term expired if the rascal did not spend his earnings to elect the Republican candidate to Congress from this District. The Burlingame treaty should be so amended that when a Chinaman sailed out of the Golden Gate he could not sail back ayain, uniese’ for purposes of travel or commerce. He admitted that he employed a Chinese cook right along, but pleaded that he could not get a white one to fill the place. He owned eighty acres of land in the valley, but stood on the mining plank in the Democratic platform. If elected, he proposed to come and visit the leading mines of this ‘county, and so post himself he could act intelligently when the mining question came up in Congress. He pledged that he would never miss a meal when he cane, and promised not to pay for one. He cordially invited himself to enjoy the hospitality ofthe miners while among them. He claims a belief there is a solution of the slickens problem that will enable the miners to so work their claims 48 not to injure the property oi the valleyites. He is in favor of a tariff for revenue to defray government expenses, has always been in favor ef the laboring classes, wants free coinage of silver, and expresses great indignation because his name is on Pixley’s “ticket.” He will speak at Grass Valley October 14th. Henry E. Highton, aSan Francisco _ lawyer, talked eloquently and plausibly for an hour and u half or more. He raked up all the old stereotyped issues and dished them out in original shape. He pointed with satisfaction to the fact that 34 years ago he worked inthe Gold Hill mine at Gras: Valley, and had helped ‘level/ one of the biggest canals constructeu inthe coun? . His heart was, he .wanted it understood, still with the men whom he helped to lay the foundation of the State, and against the representatives of organized wealth. He criticised John F. Swift’s literary style, and related the following: When here in 1853 he was anxious to ascertain the value of the gravel deposit at the bottom ofa certain shaft. He went there one night and unreeling the rope from the windlass had failed to observe that the rope was not knotted after it passed through the cylinder, and when heswung over the mouth of the Shaft the rope slipped out and he shot downward. The shaft was 75 feet deep, but eight feet of watex inthe bottom made a soft falling place. He kept his head above water an bour and a half when a passing miner heard his cries and helped him out. He utilized this whopper by saying that the Democrats had a mine which Mr. Swift wanted to explore; but that he had better beware because when the Democratic shaft was prepared. for Republican politicians there was no knot on the upper end of the rope. He touched up the free school, Chinese, financial, ¢abor, irrigation and other questions. He claimed if Stoneman’s late extra session of the Legislature had been a failure, the fault was not the Governor’s. As to hydraulic mitiing, he had never favored its de= struction. He believed it was inseperable from the irrgation and farming interests, and that the three could be made to. flourish together in harmony by wise and conciliatory legislation, and the'co-operation of the State and Federal governments. After paying his respects to the State ticket . The Democrats had their opening whoop-up for the campaign at Hunt’s Hall Saturday night, quite @ good-sized audience being presproceded to let himself down. He }. ‘Defendant allowed till Oct: 2 to -very bad in my head. It had beroad Commissioner of this District, the audience that he was a resiyears ago, he unfolded a copy of that morning’s Transcript and proceeded.to read a mild skit concerning him that was published in it. As he progressed in the reading he became red-eyed,_ his manly breast heaved ‘like a cat-boat in atempest, and his voice became almost unmanageable in its inflections. He characterized it as a base slander. As the article stated that he was a radical Democrat, aman of spotless character and clear-headed on all subjects but that of railroads, the audience seemed in doubt.as to whether he objected to being called a Democrat, being credited with a good character, or having his crankiness on the railroad question pointed outin a delicate way. The general impression was that his extreme sensitiveness was something phenomenal in.a man who has for many years been engaged in thé newspaper business and sometimes expresses himself about people and things in a style that is more forcible than elegant. Mr. Filchér’s speech proper consisted principally of an array of figures so presented as to make the best vossible showing from his standpoint of argument. He stated that hehad no pledges to make, and believed there is a chance to make a material reduction in railroad freights and fares without exercising a spirit of prejudice or demagogy. He alleged that his only reason for wanting the Commissionership is that he may have an opportunity to do something for his country. Corporations, said he, go on the theory that there is no hell, They get all they can and keep all they get. Some time, he feared, the people might rise up in wrath and make a hell for them. _ Frank H. McNally, a rising young lawyer of San Francisco, who formerly lived for a short time in this county, was the last speaker. He said he had not come to make the Democratic eagle squeal, but to present cold facts on live political issues. Owing to the lateness of the hour he made a brief speech, but managed to say much in few words. He pointed’ out what he considered the best features of the State platform, and. recalled the fact that those Democrats who could not stand square-: ly by its principles had been read} out of the party for the party's 400d. He devoted himself at some length to the mining question. He charged that the right to hydraulic had been taken away by a Republican Judge, and said the Democrats proposed to restureit. Afier t general disquisition, he proceeded to eulogize the candidates upon the Democratic ticket. His address, like the others, was listened ‘0 with the closest attention. The meeting terminated with three cheers for the Democracy and a selection by Union Band which latter bad -furnished the instrumental music for the evening. : °> ---——__— Superior Court.

Having told dent of this county twenty-five} CROS8’S. CANDIDACY. His. Nomination by the Democrate—What He Said. When the nomination of a candidate for State Senator became the or.ier of business in the Democratic convention held at this city last Saturday, Hon. Chas. Kent said ; “Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen of the Conyention :—I rise to place in nomination a gentleman who is wellknown to every member of this convention. If ever there was a time in the history of this portion of the State, now is the time that we ought to have a man to represent us in the Senate from Nevada county whom we know to be a man of ability. Without detaining this convention any longer 1 will place in nomination the name of C. W. Cross.” (Applause.) Leopold Garthe said: “Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen of the Convention :—I have been in politics in this county for 26 years, connected with the Democratic party, but I have never performed any act with more satisfaction, nor I think with more satisfaction to the Democratic party, than to second the nomination of C. W. Cross. We all*how the man. He isthe peer of any man in this State without exception. I mean of the whole State. He is at the head of his profession, at the head of the bar, and we ought to have such a man to represent Nevada county in the Senate. We have not a man among us whom we can be more proud of in -his seat than that man. I move that Mr. Cross be nominated by acclamation.” J. J. Dorsey of Grass Valley: “Before that motion is put I desire that the gentleman shall come forward, endorse the platform and pay the customary five dollars.” r. Cross responded as follows: “Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen of this Convention :—I have paid my five dollars and I suppose now I am entitled to say a word. A man never knows how good a man. he is until he has some friend to put himin nomination. Henever knows how bad a man he is until he is nominated and hears his enemies talk about him. Itis necessarily with some embarrassment that I address this convention today. Ishall reserve what speeches I haveto make until after this convention has adjourned. ‘I regret exceedingly that there has been any dissatisfaction at the course which I have pursued in the Senate during the last four years. Ihave meant to do my duty, and faithfully, to Nevada county. I believe I have done so I find no fault with any man who differs with me in that opinion. It is a free country; every man is entitled to his free opinion; every man is entitled to his free judg. ment; every man is entitled to his free vote; every man, be he a delegate to this convention or not, who has doubts about my doing my duty faithfully and manfully: byNevada county, is, by me, so farasIam able to doit, absolved from all duty te support or vote for me during’ this campaign. (Applause). Iam a party man, but I am not to that extent a party man that I believe a man should vote against his good judgment. I believe in independent party action, I have meant to keep, I believe I have kept, I intend to keep, all the pledges that IT make. Time has in part corrected the judgment of the. people of Nevada county and of the Democratic party of Nevada county as to the course I have pursued as its representative in the past. Ileave it to time to correct the opinions of those who still feel like censuring me for the course that I have pursued, or for time to more strongly confirm and — establish their judgment in that matter. It embarrasses me somewhat to appear before a Democratic Convention at thistime. As many of you know,. I came into the Deinocratic party after many of the heads that\I see before me Lad commenced to turn gray and after many of you had commenced to lose your original. growth of hair. I belie ve T came _ into! the Democratic party about the same time that Mr. Carr did. Now, if. we, who are new reeruits, do not prove such thorough good fighting soldiers, if we do not appear to be such thoroughly ‘dyed-in-the-wool’ Democrats as those who have had longer training within the party, you must muke some little allowance for us, and bolster us up,and sustain us, and counsel us the best you can. This I promise, that l will support th ¢ Democratic,ticket as nominated by this convention ; that I will support the State ticket (I believe it will be elected); that I will support the platform adopted by thig convention; and that, ii elected, I will do my utmost to serve the Democratic party and to name often given to Ayer’s Sarsaparilla, because of its blood-enhe ¢oncluded with an eloquent riching qualities. oe peeeye the people of Nevada county. a a al ae ee be done in the future. vention and for giving me so héarty a reception by a Democratic convention. I came near forgetting one matter which I desire to publicly state and which I believe justice demandds. I snppose you all know that whoever is nominated by this convention has an exceedingly hard contest to Imake. Perhaps no other candidate on the ticket will have so hard a fight to make. Some weeks ago Imet the Republican candidate, Mr. Walrath, in Sacramento. He stated that he had some iiea of being a candidate on the Republican ticket for State Senator from this county. He and I talked about the matter. We have been personal frien:.s for some years. Mr. Walrath had been a client of . mine. Atthat time I said to Mr. Walrath that if he was nominated for this office by the Republican party.I would not have the courage to run against him. That I would not be a candidate against him. That promise I made in good faith. That promise I would have kept but for one thing which I will state. After my name was mentioned within the last few days in connection with this nomination I telegraphed to Mr. Walrath the circumstances and asked him to release me from that promise that had been made to him at Sacramento—not to be a_ candidate against him, and I received from him a most cheerful, most hearty, open, frank and manly declaration that he released me fully from that promise. If any man, knowing that I had made° that promise, has under those circum-. stances promised his support to Mr. Walrath, to that man, as freely and fully and entirely as I can, whether that man or those men be members of this convention or otherwise, I most cheerfelly, although a candidate upon.this ticket, accede the privilege of keeping any promise uf that kind which they made at a time when I was not expected to be a candidate. I desire to make this political fight at the head of this ticket, if I should be nominated, in an open, square and manly way, and to leave nothing to be said afterwardx as against me on account of this campaign. If I am defeated, I will know how to bear it, for I have been defeated before in this county. IfI.am elected I shall try todo my duty. 1 know whatit isto be electéd by the people of this county and I consider it a Ce placing my name before this con-. ey ee MISSED THE TRAIN. The Bella Moore Compatiy Oversleep ThemselvesFirst Perfo: mance Tonight. The Eastern dramatic company under the leadership of that most charming actress, Miss Bella Moore, advertised to appear at this city last evening in “The Mountain Pink,’’ missed the morning train Fire! Fire! Fine! from San Francisco, where they have for several weeks been play ing to delighted audiences in the Bush Street Theater. Manager Jacobs got a telegram at ten o’clock relating what had happened and saying they would leave the Bay in the afternoon so as to train. Tonight they will positively produce ‘‘A Mountain Pink.” Speaking of the company’s appearance at Sacramento last month, the Bee gets off this one on a gentleman well known here: “Uncle Cale” Wilcox, a member of the State Board of Equalization, attended the theatre last night, and at once, like others, became an admirer of Bella Moore, the “Mountain Pink.’ He closely observed every movement she made and was among the most enthusiatic applauders. In the last scene, ‘‘Felix Bonnory,”’ chief of the moonshiners, a blood-thirsty Villian, abuses “Sincerity Weeks” the heroine, but he is promptly brought to justice by a bullet fired by a revenue officer. As ‘Bonnory’’ was falling to the stag>, Mr. Wilcox became greatly excited and bubbled over with sympathy for the poor little girl. Leaning forward in his chair he shouted, in atone audible all over the theater, “Shoot the scoundrel again.” Admission 50 and 75 cents. Reserved seats without extra charge at Vinton’s, . Serious Danger Threatens every man, woman or child living in a region of country where fever and ayue is prevalent, since the germs of malarial disease are inhaled from the air and are swallowed from the water of such a region. Medicinal safeguard is absolutely necessary to nullify this danger. As a means of fortifying and acclimating the system so as tobe able to resist the malarial poison, Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters is incomparably the best and the most popular, Irregularities of the stomach, liver and bowels encourage malaria; but these are speedily rectified try the Bitters. The functions of digestion and secretion are assisted by its use, and a vigorous as well as regular condition of tte system promoted by it. Constitution and physique are thus defended against the inroads of malaria by this matchless preventive, which is also a certain and thorough remedy in the worst cases of intermittent and remittant fevers. proud position.’* time will work. Two years ago, on June Ist, 1884, Senator Cross and Assemblyman ‘Sweetland, together with sundry other Democratic legislators, were read out of the party by a Democrati.: convention in this county. Out of 69 delegates present,only ten voted against the adoption of the condemnatory resolutions,which were subsequently endorsed by another county convention held in this city. en a THE WRECKERS. —_— Annual Meeting of the Anti-Debris Association. The Appeal says: The AntiDebris Association of the Sacramento Valley held its annual meeting at the-Court House in Yuba City Saturday afternoon and was well attended by the members who represent most of the entire valley. The meeting was called to order by C. E. Sexey, the President, and busiuess opened by the reading and approval of the minutes of the session in Novem‘ber, 1885. Alter this followed a general’ discussion of the work which had been accomplished in the year past and an outline on the part of a few as to what should The report of the suits brought by Yuba county was verbally furnished by E. A. Davis; one of the attorneys. Of those in charge of Sutter county, 8. J. Stabler, also an attorney, made a verbal report, which was highly satisfactory. The—sentiment was expressed that legislation was necessary to carry o t some of the points involved in the debris litigation and:that it was the duty of those interested to see that the required laws were duly presented to the Legislature for its consideration. The annual report of the officers of the Associatiun were filed and a syngpsis given. The receipts of the year show $21,000, while the expenditures are about the same, there being a balanee of $62 due the President. : When these reports had been read the election of Directors was valled for and resulted intbe old Boare being. reelected, with the exception of B.

The Burlingame treaty should be so amended that when a Chinaman sailed out of the Golden Gate he could not sail back ayain, uniese’ for purposes of travel or commerce. He admitted that he employed a Chinese cook right along, but pleaded that he could not get a white one to fill the place. He owned eighty acres of land in the valley, but stood on the mining plank in the Democratic platform. If elected, he proposed to come and visit the leading mines of this ‘county, and so post himself he could act intelligently when the mining question came up in Congress. He pledged that he would never miss a meal when he cane, and promised not to pay for one. He cordially invited himself to enjoy the hospitality ofthe miners while among them. He claims a belief there is a solution of the slickens problem that will enable the miners to so work their claims 48 not to injure the property oi the valleyites. He is in favor of a tariff for revenue to defray government expenses, has always been in favor ef the laboring classes, wants free coinage of silver, and expresses great indignation because his name is on Pixley’s “ticket.” He will speak at Grass Valley October 14th. Henry E. Highton, aSan Francisco _ lawyer, talked eloquently and plausibly for an hour and u half or more. He raked up all the old stereotyped issues and dished them out in original shape. He pointed with satisfaction to the fact that 34 years ago he worked inthe Gold Hill mine at Gras: Valley, and had helped ‘level/ one of the biggest canals constructeu inthe coun? . His heart was, he .wanted it understood, still with the men whom he helped to lay the foundation of the State, and against the representatives of organized wealth. He criticised John F. Swift’s literary style, and related the following: When here in 1853 he was anxious to ascertain the value of the gravel deposit at the bottom ofa certain shaft. He went there one night and unreeling the rope from the windlass had failed to observe that the rope was not knotted after it passed through the cylinder, and when heswung over the mouth of the Shaft the rope slipped out and he shot downward. The shaft was 75 feet deep, but eight feet of watex inthe bottom made a soft falling place. He kept his head above water an bour and a half when a passing miner heard his cries and helped him out. He utilized this whopper by saying that the Democrats had a mine which Mr. Swift wanted to explore; but that he had better beware because when the Democratic shaft was prepared. for Republican politicians there was no knot on the upper end of the rope. He touched up the free school, Chinese, financial, ¢abor, irrigation and other questions. He claimed if Stoneman’s late extra session of the Legislature had been a failure, the fault was not the Governor’s. As to hydraulic mitiing, he had never favored its de= struction. He believed it was inseperable from the irrgation and farming interests, and that the three could be made to. flourish together in harmony by wise and conciliatory legislation, and the'co-operation of the State and Federal governments. After paying his respects to the State ticket . The Democrats had their opening whoop-up for the campaign at Hunt’s Hall Saturday night, quite @ good-sized audience being presproceded to let himself down. He }. ‘Defendant allowed till Oct: 2 to -very bad in my head. It had beroad Commissioner of this District, the audience that he was a resiyears ago, he unfolded a copy of that morning’s Transcript and proceeded.to read a mild skit concerning him that was published in it. As he progressed in the reading he became red-eyed,_ his manly breast heaved ‘like a cat-boat in atempest, and his voice became almost unmanageable in its inflections. He characterized it as a base slander. As the article stated that he was a radical Democrat, aman of spotless character and clear-headed on all subjects but that of railroads, the audience seemed in doubt.as to whether he objected to being called a Democrat, being credited with a good character, or having his crankiness on the railroad question pointed outin a delicate way. The general impression was that his extreme sensitiveness was something phenomenal in.a man who has for many years been engaged in thé newspaper business and sometimes expresses himself about people and things in a style that is more forcible than elegant. Mr. Filchér’s speech proper consisted principally of an array of figures so presented as to make the best vossible showing from his standpoint of argument. He stated that hehad no pledges to make, and believed there is a chance to make a material reduction in railroad freights and fares without exercising a spirit of prejudice or demagogy. He alleged that his only reason for wanting the Commissionership is that he may have an opportunity to do something for his country. Corporations, said he, go on the theory that there is no hell, They get all they can and keep all they get. Some time, he feared, the people might rise up in wrath and make a hell for them. _ Frank H. McNally, a rising young lawyer of San Francisco, who formerly lived for a short time in this county, was the last speaker. He said he had not come to make the Democratic eagle squeal, but to present cold facts on live political issues. Owing to the lateness of the hour he made a brief speech, but managed to say much in few words. He pointed’ out what he considered the best features of the State platform, and. recalled the fact that those Democrats who could not stand square-: ly by its principles had been read} out of the party for the party's 400d. He devoted himself at some length to the mining question. He charged that the right to hydraulic had been taken away by a Republican Judge, and said the Democrats proposed to restureit. Afier t general disquisition, he proceeded to eulogize the candidates upon the Democratic ticket. His address, like the others, was listened ‘0 with the closest attention. The meeting terminated with three cheers for the Democracy and a selection by Union Band which latter bad -furnished the instrumental music for the evening. : °> ---——__— Superior Court.

When the nomination of a candidate for State Senator became the or.ier of business in the Democratic convention held at this city last Saturday, Hon. Chas. Kent said ; “Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen

of the Conyention :—I rise to place in nomination a gentleman who is wellknown to every member of this convention. If ever there was a time in the history of this portion of the State, now is the time that we ought to have a man to represent us in the Senate from Nevada county whom we know to be a man of ability. Without detaining this convention any longer 1 will place in nomination the name of C. W. Cross.” (Applause.) Leopold Garthe said: “Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen of the Convention :—I have been in politics in this county for 26 years, connected with the Democratic party, but I have never performed any act with more satisfaction, nor I think with more satisfaction to the Democratic party, than to second the nomination of C. W. Cross. We all*how the man. He isthe peer of any man in this State without exception. I mean of the whole State. He is at the head of his profession, at the head of the bar, and we ought to have such a man to represent Nevada county in the Senate. We have not a man among us whom we can be more proud of in -his seat than that man. I move that Mr. Cross be nominated by acclamation.” J. J. Dorsey of Grass Valley: “Before that motion is put I desire that the gentleman shall come forward, endorse the platform and pay the customary five dollars.” r. Cross responded as follows: “Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen of this Convention :—I have paid my five dollars and I suppose now I am entitled to say a word. A man never knows how good a man. he is until he has some friend to put himin nomination. Henever knows how bad a man he is until he is nominated and hears his enemies talk about him. Itis necessarily with some embarrassment that I address this convention today. Ishall reserve what speeches I haveto make until after this convention has adjourned. ‘I regret exceedingly that there has been any dissatisfaction at the course which I have pursued in the Senate during the last four years. Ihave meant to do my duty, and faithfully, to Nevada county. I believe I have done so I find no fault with any man who differs with me in that opinion. It is a free country; every man is entitled to his free opinion; every man is entitled to his free judg. ment; every man is entitled to his free vote; every man, be he a delegate to this convention or not, who has doubts about my doing my duty faithfully and manfully: byNevada county, is, by me, so farasIam able to doit, absolved from all duty te support or vote for me during’ this campaign. (Applause). Iam a party man, but I am not to that extent a party man that I believe a man should vote against his good judgment. I believe in independent party action, I have meant to keep, I believe I have kept, I intend to keep, all the pledges that IT make. Time has in part corrected the judgment of the. people of Nevada county and of the Democratic party of Nevada county as to the course I have pursued as its representative in the past. Ileave it to time to correct the opinions of those who still feel like censuring me for the course that I have pursued, or for time to more strongly confirm and — establish their judgment in that matter. It embarrasses me somewhat to appear before a Democratic Convention at thistime. As many of you know,. I came into the Deinocratic party after many of the heads that\I see before me Lad commenced to turn gray and after many of you had commenced to lose your original. growth of hair. I belie ve T came _ into! the Democratic party about the same time that Mr. Carr did. Now, if. we, who are new reeruits, do not prove such thorough good fighting soldiers, if we do not appear to be such thoroughly ‘dyed-in-the-wool’ Democrats as those who have had longer training within the party, you must muke some little allowance for us, and bolster us up,and sustain us, and counsel us the best you can. This I promise, that l will support th ¢ Democratic,ticket as nominated by this convention ; that I will support the State ticket (I believe it will be elected); that I will support the platform adopted by thig convention; and that, ii elected, I will do my utmost to serve the Democratic party and to name often given to Ayer’s Sarsaparilla, because of its blood-enhe ¢oncluded with an eloquent riching qualities. oe peeeye the people of Nevada county. a a al ae ee be done in the future. vention and for giving me so héarty a reception by a Democratic convention. I came near forgetting one matter which I desire to publicly state and which I believe justice demandds. I snppose you all know that whoever is nominated by this convention has an exceedingly hard contest to Imake. Perhaps no other candidate on the ticket will have so hard a fight to make. Some weeks ago Imet the Republican candidate, Mr. Walrath, in Sacramento. He stated that he had some iiea of being a candidate on the Republican ticket for State Senator from this county. He and I talked about the matter. We have been personal frien:.s for some years. Mr. Walrath had been a client of . mine. Atthat time I said to Mr. Walrath that if he was nominated for this office by the Republican party.I would not have the courage to run against him. That I would not be a candidate against him. That promise I made in good faith. That promise I would have kept but for one thing which I will state. After my name was mentioned within the last few days in connection with this nomination I telegraphed to Mr. Walrath the circumstances and asked him to release me from that promise that had been made to him at Sacramento—not to be a_ candidate against him, and I received from him a most cheerful, most hearty, open, frank and manly declaration that he released me fully from that promise. If any man, knowing that I had made° that promise, has under those circum-. stances promised his support to Mr. Walrath, to that man, as freely and fully and entirely as I can, whether that man or those men be members of this convention or otherwise, I most cheerfelly, although a candidate upon.this ticket, accede the privilege of keeping any promise uf that kind which they made at a time when I was not expected to be a candidate. I desire to make this political fight at the head of this ticket, if I should be nominated, in an open, square and manly way, and to leave nothing to be said afterwardx as against me on account of this campaign. If I am defeated, I will know how to bear it, for I have been defeated before in this county. IfI.am elected I shall try todo my duty. 1 know whatit isto be electéd by the people of this county and I consider it a Ce placing my name before this con-. ey ee MISSED THE TRAIN. The Bella Moore Compatiy Oversleep ThemselvesFirst Perfo: mance Tonight. The Eastern dramatic company under the leadership of that most charming actress, Miss Bella Moore, advertised to appear at this city last evening in “The Mountain Pink,’’ missed the morning train Fire! Fire! Fine! from San Francisco, where they have for several weeks been play ing to delighted audiences in the Bush Street Theater. Manager Jacobs got a telegram at ten o’clock relating what had happened and saying they would leave the Bay in the afternoon so as to train. Tonight they will positively produce ‘‘A Mountain Pink.” Speaking of the company’s appearance at Sacramento last month, the Bee gets off this one on a gentleman well known here: “Uncle Cale” Wilcox, a member of the State Board of Equalization, attended the theatre last night, and at once, like others, became an admirer of Bella Moore, the “Mountain Pink.’ He closely observed every movement she made and was among the most enthusiatic applauders. In the last scene, ‘‘Felix Bonnory,”’ chief of the moonshiners, a blood-thirsty Villian, abuses “Sincerity Weeks” the heroine, but he is promptly brought to justice by a bullet fired by a revenue officer. As ‘Bonnory’’ was falling to the stag>, Mr. Wilcox became greatly excited and bubbled over with sympathy for the poor little girl. Leaning forward in his chair he shouted, in atone audible all over the theater, “Shoot the scoundrel again.” Admission 50 and 75 cents. Reserved seats without extra charge at Vinton’s, . Serious Danger Threatens every man, woman or child living in a region of country where fever and ayue is prevalent, since the germs of malarial disease are inhaled from the air and are swallowed from the water of such a region. Medicinal safeguard is absolutely necessary to nullify this danger. As a means of fortifying and acclimating the system so as tobe able to resist the malarial poison, Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters is incomparably the best and the most popular, Irregularities of the stomach, liver and bowels encourage malaria; but these are speedily rectified try the Bitters. The functions of digestion and secretion are assisted by its use, and a vigorous as well as regular condition of tte system promoted by it. Constitution and physique are thus defended against the inroads of malaria by this matchless preventive, which is also a certain and thorough remedy in the worst cases of intermittent and remittant fevers. proud position.’* time will work. Two years ago, on June Ist, 1884, Senator Cross and Assemblyman ‘Sweetland, together with sundry other Democratic legislators, were read out of the party by a Democrati.: convention in this county.

The meeting was called to order by C. E. Sexey, the President, and busiuess opened by the reading and approval of the minutes of the session in Novem‘ber, 1885. Alter this followed a general’ discussion of the work which had been accomplished in the year past and an outline on the part of a few as to what should The report of the suits brought by Yuba county was verbally furnished by E. A. Davis; one of the attorneys. Of those in charge of Sutter county, 8. J. Stabler, also an attorney, made a verbal report, which was highly satisfactory. The—sentiment was expressed that legislation was necessary to carry o t some of the points involved in the debris litigation and:that it was the duty of those interested to see that the required laws were duly presented to the Legislature for its consideration. The annual report of the officers of the Associatiun were filed and a syngpsis given.
