FOR PRESIDENT, WILLIAM McKINLEY OF OHIO, FOR VICE PRESIDENT, GARRET A. HOBART OF NEW JERSEY. WORDS FROM A BIG MAN. Wheat Governor Wm. M. McKinley Said a Few Days Ago. These epigramatic truths fell from the lips of Governor McKinley on Tuesday inaimpromptu address to a group of callers. For sententious. wisdom and crisp rhetoric they were examples worthy to be treasured in the memory of every elector: “The post which the United States must occupy in wages and industries and in the integrity of its finances must be at the head of the nations of the earth,” “We are opposed to any policy which increases the number of the unemployed in the United Stgtes evenif it does give us cheaper foreign goods.” “We are opposed to any policy which degrades American. manhood that we may have cheaper products made either at home or abroad.” “My countrymen, the most unameriean of all appeals observable in this campaign is the one which seeks to array labor against capital; employer against employe.” “Nothing is cheap to the American people which comes from abroad when ~ it exitgi idleness upon our own laborers.” “We are political gaquais here—equal in privilege and opportunity, dependent upon each other, and the prosperity of the one is the prosperity of the other.” Don’t Believe He Will. It is reported in San Francisco that an attempt will be made to have Hon. ©. F. McGlashan, the Populist nominee for Congressman from this district, withdraw in favor of the Democratic nominee. The. proposition is a ridiculous one and we are: deceived in McGlashan’s make-up if he submits to baing thrown overboard. It is a self-evident fact that McGlashan will poll 40 per cent. more votes than the Democratic nominee. De Vries is hardly spoken of in connection with that office. It would be a more sensible move to have the latter withdraw in McGlashan’s favor, ———+-+e9 What a Bishop Says. “They have the silver basis in India, have had it for centuries, and it has been given a fair trial. It would ruin this country and bankrupt everybody. The foundation of business is stability, and with a silver standard you can never have it. In Calcutta I can buy a suit of clothes for $40 today, and* perhaps for $20 tomorrow, and_ the next day it will be $50. You can nevet tell from the number of dollars you own how much you are worth.’ The country is at the mercy of the money chatigers and speculators.”—Bishop Thoburn, of the M. E.

In the forenoon there will be a contesi between ‘the employes of Clinch & Co.’s grocery store and the employes of Wilhelm, Clinch & Co.’s meat market.

Hoke Smith Resigns, Wasuineaton, D. O., August 22.—Hoke Smith, Secretary of the Interior, has tendered his resignation arid President Cleveland has accepted it, John M. Reynolds, Second Assistant: Secretary of the Interior, is mentioned as his successor. The new Secretary will have only about six months to serve, and the President deems it best to put in the place for so short a time a man familiar with its duties. Smith favors the Bryan‘ wing of the Democracy, and his opposition to the administration’s views ‘in this matter doubtless accounts for his resignation.

At that time Higginbotham was boating with a party of friends on the Yellow river. The party was a livey. one and Higginbotham was in high Spirits. Suddenly in the midst of the fun he sprang on to the raft. and turning to his conipanions, shouted: “Good by, boys; I am going to hell!” Then he dived into the water. At first it was thought that he .was in fun and no attention was paid to hint. But when he did not come to the surface the others peered down into the water and saw him clinging to a root and deliberately drowning himself. His companions jumped into the water and tried to loosen his hold, but in vain. Then after some delay a rope was procured, was fastened around his legs and an effort made to tear him free, but so desperate was his grip that it took the strength of five men to pull him up. He was Wiiconscious at that time; and although a doctor was at once summon-. ed, it was found to be impossible to resuscitate him: Circus Robbed. Lone Branon, N. J., Aug. 21.—The Walter L. Mains circus, which exhibited here Wédnesday afternoon and evening, suffered a big loss after the. show.

CAME T0 SEE OUR MINES, A Lady Correspondent Tells What She Saw in This District. Mrs. Mary E. Hart, traveling correspondent of the Los Angeles Herald, recently visited this city. Under date of August 14th she sent a communication to that journal from Nevada City, from which we make the following extracts: “Situated near the heart of the Sierra Nevada mountains, at an elevation of 2500 feet, lies the beautiful Nevada City, wealthiest mining district in California. Leaving the Central Pacific at Colfax your correspondent. after a short delay boarded the Nevada County Narrow Gauge train and was soon speeding away up grade toward the point of destination. “It was about 5:30 when our little engine puffed into Nevada City, and a few minutes later found me domiciled by speculators and mining men. Weary from the heat and the long day’s journey, rest was soon sought ‘in the arms of Morpheus,’ and early the following morning, equipped .with high gum boots, overalls and a rubber coat, and a dilapidated sombrero, your correspondent prepared to explore the Reward mine, under the able guidance of R. C. Walrath, the general manager.” ' The correspondent describes the trip underground into the Reward mine, also of her visit next day to: the Providence mine and. an inspection of the mill and other works and another trip underground. The following day she went out to the Red Hill mine, accompanied by Prof. G. A. Treadwell. There she was allowed to “pan out” a thimble full of gold dust. Atall of the mines visited she was given a nice specimen of quartz. She speaks in general terms . °° of the other mines of the district, and was evidently well pleased with her visit to this part. of the State. Her article in'the Los Angeles: paper is illustrated by views of the Providence and Reward mines. . ees One Week Longer, .

Hon. Samuel M. Shortridge of San Francisco will address the people of Nevada City and vicinity on the political issues of the day at a Republican mass meeting to be held here on Wednesday evening next. Mr. Shortridge ranks as one of the most logical and eloquent public speakers in the West, and-is as sincere and fair as he is able. He spoke here during the Presidential campaign of 1892, aiid his address of” that time is remembered by our citizens as one of the have ever listened to. They will all, irrespective of political affiliations be highly gratified to know that they will again have the privilege of enjoying his matchless eloquence. Our people take a special interest in “Sam” Shortridge, as they familiarly call him, because he was when a poor and friendless young lad employed as a tool carrier in the Cold Spring gravel mine on the Harmony Ridge just east of town. Mr. Shortridge has also for this reason an especially warm friendship for the people of this city. Another interesting fact in this connection is.that his brother, Charles M. Shortridge, the editor and proprietor of the San Francisco Call, was in 1876 or thereabout porter in the National Exchange Hotel at this city. He arrived here at that time penniless, having come out from “the States” as a breakbeam tourist. He applied at the hotel for something to eat and said he would work in payment for it. He was large and strong beyond his gears, and proved a most faithful servant. He remained at the Hotel some time and then got a more remunerative seni IN THE HOUSES OF WORSHIP Religious Services to Be Held Throughout the City Tomorrow. TRINITY CHURCH. Rev. E. J. H.

CAME T0 SEE OUR MINES, A Lady Correspondent Tells What She Saw in This District. Mrs. Mary E. Hart, traveling correspondent of the Los Angeles Herald, recently visited this city. Under date of August 14th she sent a communication to that journal from Nevada City, from which we make the following extracts: “Situated near the heart of the Sierra Nevada mountains, at an elevation of 2500 feet, lies the beautiful Nevada City, wealthiest mining district in California. Leaving the Central Pacific at Colfax your correspondent. after a short delay boarded the Nevada County Narrow Gauge train and was soon speeding away up grade toward the point of destination. “It was about 5:30 when our little engine puffed into Nevada City, and a few minutes later found me domiciled by speculators and mining men. Weary from the heat and the long day’s journey, rest was soon sought ‘in the arms of Morpheus,’ and early the following morning, equipped .with high gum boots, overalls and a rubber coat, and a dilapidated sombrero, your correspondent prepared to explore the Reward mine, under the able guidance of R. C. Walrath, the general manager.” ' The correspondent describes the trip underground into the Reward mine, also of her visit next day to: the Providence mine and. an inspection of the mill and other works and another trip underground. The following day she went out to the Red Hill mine, accompanied by Prof. G. A. Treadwell. There she was allowed to “pan out” a thimble full of gold dust. Atall of the mines visited she was given a nice specimen of quartz. She speaks in general terms . °° of the other mines of the district, and was evidently well pleased with her visit to this part. of the State. Her article in'the Los Angeles: paper is illustrated by views of the Providence and Reward mines. . ees One Week Longer, .

Hon. Samuel M. Shortridge of San Francisco will address the people of Nevada City and vicinity on the political issues of the day at a Republican mass meeting to be held here on Wednesday evening next. Mr. Shortridge ranks as one of the most logical and eloquent public speakers in the West, and-is as sincere and fair as he is able. He spoke here during the Presidential campaign of 1892, aiid his address of” that time is remembered by our citizens as one of the have ever listened to. They will all, irrespective of political affiliations be highly gratified to know that they will again have the privilege of enjoying his matchless eloquence. Our people take a special interest in “Sam” Shortridge, as they familiarly call him, because he was when a poor and friendless young lad employed as a tool carrier in the Cold Spring gravel mine on the Harmony Ridge just east of town. Mr. Shortridge has also for this reason an especially warm friendship for the people of this city. Another interesting fact in this connection is.that his brother, Charles M. Shortridge, the editor and proprietor of the San Francisco Call, was in 1876 or thereabout porter in the National Exchange Hotel at this city. He arrived here at that time penniless, having come out from “the States” as a breakbeam tourist. He applied at the hotel for something to eat and said he would work in payment for it. He was large and strong beyond his gears, and proved a most faithful servant. He remained at the Hotel some time and then got a more remunerative seni IN THE HOUSES OF WORSHIP Religious Services to Be Held Throughout the City Tomorrow. TRINITY CHURCH. Rev. E. J. H.
