Some Notable Young Men Who Are Coming Next Week,
San Francisco, April 20, 1898.Eprtor Transorrt:—On next Sunday the “boys”—our “boys”—will be.
with you and tread the streets of your
city. How fitting it is that this annual
meeting should occur on the anniversary of Nevada’s creation’as a county ?
Forty-seven years ago; by-an act of the
Legislature, as I have ‘already stated in
this correspondence, she was: granted
the.right.to. govern. herself, and-her
boundaries were established. At once
she sprang into a prominence which
she has ever since maintained. The
clouds have lowered at times; but, with
a resistless energy which overcame all
obstacles, her citizens have steadily
pursued their way, confident in hope
and never letting the darkness of despair enter into their thoughts. Confidsnce—confiience in themselves and
in her matchless resources—-has brought
about the marvelous wonders that are
‘the admiration of all, and now} in the
Satter part of this month, two Grand
;bodies—the G. A. R. and the N. 8. of
ithe-G. W.—are m::tng in her capital
«city. It is wonderful.
For-some time I have had this letter
xin contemplation; but I deferred writing it until the time for the assembling
-of the Grand Parlor drew near at hand.
‘I wanted to tell you something about
-our “boys,” and I wanted to have it
swhen the subjects of my remarks were
-your guests.
The delegation from this city is a
most remarkable one. ‘It is composed
of men distinguished in finance, in
politics, in literature, in mercantile
pursuits and in the mechanical arts
and sciences. Were Ito nametham all
and tell all I know and have heard
about them it would: require an extra
edition of the Transonrrr. I will be as
‘brief as I can, at the same time doing
‘justice to all.
son of his greater prominence, stands
James D. Phelan, the honored, honest
and beloved Mayor of this city. Personally, I am not acquainted with Mr.
‘Phelan, but I am sure he has not a
greater admirer. He isa coming man
in the politics of this State, and,should
he live, Tam sure that fate has in store
for him greater honors than he yet
possesses. He is a man of great wealth,
but does not ostenfatiously dispiay its
possession. He is a very bright man,
and is a credit to the State of his birth:
Another bright and honest man is E,
L. Head. Mr. H. is cashier of. the
Spring Valley Water Co., and is also
one of our School Directors. In politics he is a Republican. He does not
believe in sqandering the public money,
so he is constantly on the lookout for
steals; and when he finds anything of
a shady nature he is quick to expose
it. He isacandidate for Sheriff, and
his chances look to me to be good.
You will find him an extremely pleasant gentleman.
Now comes my friend J. F. Finn.
Perhaps Mr. F. is better qualified to
visita mining community than any of
the other delegates. Heis the Bailiff
in Judge Coffey’s Court, and I havea
sneaking idea that the Judge has been
posting. him about.our minés. Else
why would the Judge linger so long
and so lovingly around Nevada county’s
exhibit at the late Mining Fair? Why
would he speak so understandingly of
“Soggs’.mill and mine?” Why did he
take such a deep interest in all that
pertained to mines and mining? Many
a@ mental memorandum did he make, I
amsure, and that-Mr. F.will receive
the benefit of them, I am equally as
positive. I think I can hear him speak
knowingly of “contact walls,” of “rimrock,” of “winzes,” of ‘“upraises,” of
“old river beds,” and of all the other
him, and your citizens will never regret
having had» Henry Martin © 88" their
guest.
Then R. P. Doolan will be seen. Mr.
D:, was up to @ few days ago Assistant
Appraiser of this. port. He is also a
prominent member of the Mechanics
Institute, and in all the business of
that body takes an active part. In fact,
be heard from in the deliberations of
the Grand Parlor.
“And there is another, and a dearer,
because he was born in Nevada City.
He'is my neighbor, living only two and
a half blocks away from where I do,
and yet I never met him. I refer to F.
Hi. Milis. His father-in-law, detective
Bee, of the police force here, and myself are very good friends, bat the subject of my remarks I never met to
know. I often asked the Sergeant to
tell him to call, but he never did. His
parents were friends of mine in my
early days; but I suppose, like myself,
he is too busy to make calls. Lam sure
he will receive a warm welcome from
bis old-time friends and schoolmates.
And Dockery, J. P., he who became
famous by reason ot his midnight raids
onthe milk wagons, he will be with
you. Mr. D. is Chief Inspector of
food here. If the “boys” could only
induce him to take his elegant and
startling uniform along with him I am
quite sure that your citizens would
imagine that a Spanish .official had
suddenly dropped into their midst. It
is too gorgeous to describe, but I am
afraid his well-known modesty will

as though he was born to the manner

Treasurer. Mr. M’s. heart is as big as .

“N, P. Onrman.”
The following’ resolution. was also
eon
EST. IN 1860 BY N. P. BROWN & CO,
; : —
passed to the citizens of the city:
“The thirty-first department encampment. of the Department of California
and Nevada can not adjourn without
expressing the highest and most grateful appreciation of the very generous and unsurpassed hospitality extended to our comrades by the people
of Nevada City, and in doing so do
hereby extend to the officers and citizens of this beautiful mountain town
our heartfal thanks; acknowledging
without disparagement .to the cities
who on former occasions have entertained us, that Nevada City hospitality, generosity, and patriotic -recognition of the Veterans has excelled all
former efforts in this State. 4
“While we recognize the untiring and
successful work of our Chattanooga
Post and Relief Corps, for. which they
are entitled to our thanks, we wish to
add that the great assistance they have
received from the Native Daughters of
the Golden West, the Native Sons of
the Golden West, the Knights of Pythias, the Masonic fraternity, the Odd
Fellows, and Company © of the National Guard of California, will inscribe
these organizations upon our records
for all time as the patriotic friends of
the Grand Army of the Republic.
“Where so many have done their self
assumed duty so nobly, it is difficult
tO praise one more than another, but
we must say and doso with the feelings
of deepest emotion, that the attractive
beauty and discipline of the school
children’s division in the parade, has
proved to us that the annual encampments of, our order are inculeating a
spirit of patriotism in our children
which will redound to the benefit of
our country.
“We therefore congratulate the Board
of Edueation and school teachers and
the children of this city, und in thanking them can say that they may justly
be proud of the great success of that
feature in the festivities of the encampment.”
