Within a year the rulers and entire executive branches of the government of this great country, estimated to contain sixty-five millions of people, will be changed.

PERSONAL POINTERS, ry Concise Chronicle of Various Folks Doings and Intentions, A.,G. Stoll of Sacramento is in town. « M.'B. Church of Sacramento is in town. M.

Sweeney of San Francisco is here spending a few days. Mrs. B. A. Waite arrived here last a business engagement and their successors in office will step in, And, what does all this mean? It is the outcome of intelligence among the people, who in the United States ]are the real rulers. Such a government .as ours couid not be cartied on by ignorant people, Both intelligence and education are necessary. These lead us to take both success and defeat in: politics philosophically. They show us that under our constitution and system of government our political opponents cannot (as our stump speakers of both sides frequently assert) ruin the country, For nearly a century and a quarter this government based upon the greatest good tothe greatest number has stood the test of time: If it had met with no obstacles, if we had been free from wars and complications with other countries we might feel, us the people of other nations have persisted in feeling, that we hada good but weak government, There can be no true liberty without.an observance of law; all other liberty subsides into anarehy ‘and political chaos, for such thing as personal individual liberty would grant the robber a right to rob, and the murderer a right tv kill indiscriminately. True liberty, then,—a liberty which protected by law. That is what is done in this country, and that is what has made our government the great success it has been, Foreigners while recognizing this fact continuously sneered at our government up to the war of the rebellion, Your government, they said, is good enough for an intelligent, educated peoplé, but it has not sufficient strength to cope with any great internal outbreak against its authority, still less with any foreign interference. This talk has become less common since our: government put down the Condition of the Monterey. Tacoma, April terey says she will remain on the ,Sound al] summer. In the latter part of the summer Admiral Beardsley will arrive with the Philadelphia, when the Monterey will proceed to Vallejo. Her plate will be removed at the Mare Island navy yard and the cracks in the sides of the vessel, caused by a rebe calked and other repairs made, The Treasury Deficit, D.C., April 27.—The Treasury deficit for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1896, will probably amount to $25,000,000. This is the opinion of officials who are able to make estimates, ~ WASHINGTON, The Fire Under Control Bont, April 27.—The fire in the Standard mine is under full control, and it is expected that it will be extinguishedin a few days.

Than welcome the Presidential election. Let each man come forward and do his duty as an American citizen, regardless of -his political views.
