Send Grove . Johnson. The Republicans of this Congressional District are unanimous in the desire that Hon. Grove L. Johnson shall be one of th delegates chosen to represent them at th: National Convention at St Louis. Hir selection stands assured, and the people will have made vo mistake in their choice. We ‘will warrant that Grove L. Johnson will be heard from in the deliberations of that Convention and will be as prominent as he har been in the present Congress. His candidacy for this honor will do nothing to weaken his canvas for re-election to Congress this fall, on the contrary it will provide the occasion for evidencing to the people of this District that on putting him to.the fore they make no mistake. What May Happen. The countries of the earth are busy piling up navies and national debts in like proportion, but no sooner do they get one set of ships built than these at once became anti quated and useless because of some discovery o' improvement in naval warfare that makes them of no avail, One of these days some new principle will be discovered that will sweep the whole batch of them out of the count altogether: and render them of no more value than 80 much old iron or steel. ae f ———————2-96e-: The Republican Primaries. Aithough the primaries for the election of delegates to the Republican State Convention will be held next Saturday, there does not as yet seem to be any avowed candidates in this city.

The San Francisco Post of last Monday contained a lengthy article relative to Mies Alice Haake, the milliver, now well known in this city, and spoke of the young lady in no complimentary terms, The article accuses her of swindling a number of young ladies Out Of sume of money on the promise of instructing them: im the millinery art. Miss Haake arrived in this city a few days previous to Easter with a stock of fashionable millinery, and disposing of the same went below a few days later to replenish:it. -She returned. to this city some time last week and has since been here, intending to remain all summer, When shown the paper ‘containing the article Miss Haake was greatly affected and emphatically denied the accusation of wrongdoing on her part, stating that a mistake had occurred somewhere or else it was part of some base scheme. having blackmail for its object. She said it was true that she instructed young ladies in the millinery business, but that her class was limited to fifteen persons, whose terms began on January Ist and expired on April 1st. During March a number of ladies made application for instruction but Miss Haake refused to receive them because they would not have time to complete the course as she intended to leave for Nevada City to spend geveral months, As to her leaving San Francisco in a manner which would indicate flight she also said her ex-pupils know different, for one of them purchased her ticket. Miss Haake will go to San Francisco in the morning to investigate the matter and demand an accounting of those who have placed her in a wrong light. lt A WORKMAN’S CLAIM. Judge Caldwell’s Judgment Affirmed: in an Important Case, Monday the Supreme Court affirmed the decisiun of Judge Caldwell in the case of Della Piazza vs. Foley & Bohannan. This case has interesting features. In 1890, Foley and Bohannan were the owners of the California mine, near Graniteville. Foley commeneced working it and shared the profits with his co-worker, Bohannan, which the Court holds made them partners. In Degember, 1890, Foley hired Della Piazza to ent wood, and to do other work, which the iatter continued till November, 1891, when he demanded a settlement from Foley, who settled as though he were the only party interested. He paid a part and gave Della Piazza his note for the ,balance, who gave him a receipt in fullin return. When the uote became due Foléy. was insolvent and and nothiug could be realized from him. In Jaly, 1891, while Della Piazza was at work, Foley and Bobannan organized a corporation and sold the mine to it, Mr. Foley continuing as superintendent. Della Paizza was not notified of the change and went along as before, When he found he could not collect the nole of Foley he commenced suit against Foley and Bohannan, as partners, for the whole, claiming the note was not payment and in taking it Bohannan was not released. Bohannan sought to-set up as a defense that as half the work was done after the corporation had taken charge and about half the amount due had been paid when Foley’s note for balance and gave a receipt for the bill he was released ; he further denied being a partner. ~Judge Caldwell sustained Della Piazza in every point, overruling all Bohannan’s defences. The Judge is now sustained by the Supreme Court. Chas, W. Kitts represented Della Piazza and F, T. Nilon, Bohannan, ae — ee Menu. Free list at Star & Crescent saloon: Wednesday night— Vegetable Soup.
