MAE SSO th ares c 2s 8 v t a h Vv a v c ay t I ee ee ee et ‘ = 4 TO OB THE TRANSCRIPT. NOV. 4, 1898. Published every evening except Suadays and Legal Holidays by BROWN & CALKINS. N. P. BROWN, L. 8. CALKINS. WHAT YOUR ANSWER SHOULD BE As the Chicago lnter-Ocean says, every man going to the polls in full *sonsciousness of his American citizenship on Tuesday next must ask himself the following questions: Shall the islands of Cuba and Porto Rico, with an area of 45,155 square miles, a population of 2,445,524, and a normal trade of $200,000,000 per year, be abandoned by the United States and their people and commerce be turned over to the mismanagement of a native government or to whatever European nation may care to take possession of them ? = Shall the Philippines, with an area. of 115,528 square miles, a population of 8,000,000, and with a normal trade of $45,000,000 per year, be returned to the despotism of Spain or abandoned tothe greedy clutches of European powers ? Shall our dearly bought hold on the developing trade of $500,000,000 East Asiatics be relaxed, and the greatest market the world has ever seen be abandoned to other nations, to the exclusion of ourselves ? Shall. the victories of. Manila and Santiago be forgotten, the prestige we have gained by them be sacrificed, the men who have won them be ignored, and the whole glorious achievements of our 11]-day war be made as if it had not been ? : ; Shall we give up the control of the Nicaragua “canal, the construction of which by American capital would make the Caribbean sea the center of the world’s trade, and would enable us to become the richest commercial nation in the world ? The man who votes the Democratic ticket answers these questions in the affirmative. The man who votes the Republican ticket gives an: emphatic aN g sto every proposition. “Mr. Maauiee has made no answer to the question of the miners of California when they asked him what he meant by declaring that the precious ‘metals in the earth belonged to the Government, and that to acquire ownership of mines is detrimental to the best interests of the people. This paternalistic doctrine is one he dare not discuss before the people. He would probably say they are not ready for it. Probably not; nor for him, either. Tue Democratic newspapers continue to bang away with their mud _ batteries at Charles F. Curry, the Republican candidate for Secretary of State. They are trumping up all sorts of lying charges against his administration as County Clerk of San _ Francisco— charges that have been ex;loded time and again. The tendency of all this slander being directed at Mr. Curry . ” 7% will be to elect him by a larger majority than he would otherwise have received,Tue Maguireites have troubles of their own besides those the Gageites are putting on them. The Sacramento Bee, the leading Maguire organ in Northern Central California, if not in the State, felt impelled to Shoot this last evening at one of its co-laborers: The Examiner still continues to injure the cause of Maguire by vicious blackguardism of his opponent. H. M. La Rug, the Democratic candidate for Railroad commissioner, says all his interests are in the valley, and he would be untrue to himself and _ his section of the country if he did not support every interest there. In other words he will, as he has done for the jpast twenty. years, fight the miners every chance he gets.~ FatHer YorKE has bottled up the Bulletin as a result of that paper having chipped in to defend Phelan and Maguire when the reverend gentleman started to show them up. He has noi ouly bottled the Bulletin, but has driven the cork in so tight that the Bulletin of last evening could not find a word to say on the subject. NeEvapa county’s educational affairs have never before been 80 systematically handled as they have been by W. J. Rodgers, and for that/ reason he should be re-elected. Miners, vote aganist H. M. La Rue, the Democratic candidate for Railroad Commissioner. Heisa bitter enemy of the miners. TO THE REPUBLICANS OF -NEVADA COUNTY.Are the people of the Second Congressional District of California in favor of endorsing-the administration of President William McKinley? Are President McKinley’s statesmanship and success in bringing the late war with Spain to a successful and speedy issue worthy of an approval at the hands of the Republican voters of this Congressional district ? On Tuesday next our people.will have an opportunity of answering these questions by their ballots. A vote for Frank D. Ryan will be a vote of approval of the Republican methods of settling the issues of the war. A vote for De Vries is a vote tooppose the administration of President McKinley whenever it may suit‘the pleasure of the Democratic party, for political or other reasons, to throw obstacles in the way of the successful execution of the plans and purposes of the President. Can a Republican voter consistently commit such political apostacy at a tite like thé present, when a Democratic Congress might seriously embarrass the President in the execution of his plans for settling the important issues resulting from the recent-conquests of our army arid navy? To send a Democratic Congressman from this district is to say to the President that we do not consider the success of his administration of sufficient importance to send him a Congressman who is in accord with his policy of procedure, or who will sustain his policy when assailed by the opposition. A vote for the Democratic nominee for Congress is a vote of repudiation of the policy of the President whenever it suits the political opponents of the President to repudiate his measures. ' cs The Second Congressional District is overwhelmingly Republican. Under these circumstances a Democratic victory will be practically a repudiation of the Republican plan for settling the issues of the war. r We do not believe that the Republican voters of this district will be guilty of such political treachery towards the President and towards that party on which he depends for support in carrying on his administration. Frank D. Ryan is the peer of his opponent in every particular. His personal and political honesty have never been assailed; even-by his political opponents. He will be in harmony with the present administration and. will thus be in better position to secure favorable legislation for us than his opponent who is of the opposition party. He’will favor. all such mining legislation as De Vries will favor, and there is no good reason why he should not receive the cordial support of the members of his party. Swat Again, what has De Vries accomplished in the way of beneficial legislation for the miners, that he should have any claim to their votes? We are inclined to believe that what ever popularity he enjoys is due tohis “masterly inactivity,” whereby he fails to arouse opposition. ahahaha * Republican Meeting. The County Nominees of the Republican Party, and HON. JUDSON C. BRUSIE, Of Sacramento, Will address the people on the issues of the day at NEVADA CITY, Saturday Evening, November 5th,AT, THE THEATER. RY) B NANA ZARA ARAVA oe ee eS Ewerybody Is Inwited. ‘ A PROPERTY WRECKER. H.M. La Ruz, the Democratic candidate for Railroad Commissioner, is one H. M. La Rue, the Democratic can‘Spain Will Not Concede the didate for Railroad Commiesioner, was the bosom friend of the late George Cadwallader, attorney for’ the Valley people in all their law suits against the miners. Heuttered these words: “We will have clear water in the streams even if we have to close down every bydraulic and quartz mine in the State, and we will keep suits going into the courts until we accomplish it.” Vote against H. M. La Rue. REPUBLICANS, see to it that a Democrat is not elected to succeed our efficient County Superintendent of Schools and to reap the benefit of the conscientious, progressive work done by a Republican. . The office is an important one, is in excellent hands, and the present incumbent, W. J. Rogers, should by all means be re-elected. Ir 19 said that H. Ml La Rue, the Democratic candidate for RailroadCommissioner, was one of the ring leaders who proposed to go into the mountains and use shotgun arguments to make the miners top mining. The voters should see that that kind of a man does not get into office: again by the votes of the mining sections. A Bright Outlook. The Republican county . candidates returned today from their trip ‘along the ridge. Their meetings every where were big and enthusiastic. They say that there will be a largely increased Republican vote all through the county, _}an anti-miner as H.M.La Rue? of the very bitterest men/in California against the miners. He has always taken an active part against ther, dating back tothe time when the Keyes suit was commenced and when some of the anti-miners in the Sacramento Valley talked of banding together and coming into this county to squelch mining by shot-guninfluence. We ask Democrats, Republicans and Populists if they are prepared to vote for. such 2 A LARGE number of voters in the county at the last election did not cast their ballots. This was shown by the and the total vote. Let every Republiean turn out early and vote. The Democrats will see to it that their full party vote is cast, and there should not be the slightest indifference on the part: of the Republicans in the matter of voting, as it is the full and solid vote that means victory to Republicans, Tae Oakland ‘Tribune predicts that solid vote for Gage, not alone because he represents the party that protects their interests, but because his early manhood was passed working wiih sledge and drill as they are now. A more popular candidate could not have been obtained as far as they are concerned. AN act of Congress in 1872 abolished flogging in the navy. number of names on the Great Register . . / the miners of California will cast a. HITCH IN NEGOTIATIONS Terms of America. *Our Peace Commission Takes a Recess to Think it ‘sai (Paris, Nov. 4.—The Joint Peace Commission held a session today. The Spanish Commissioners. presented a reply to the American demands regarding the Philippines on condition of tbe payment of indemnity by the United States. Spain replies that the proposal is outside of the provisions of the protocol and is therefore inadmissible. The American Commissioners asked to adjourn till tomorrow to consider Spain’s reply. This was'‘granted. The Pueblo Delayed in Sailing. San/Francisco, Nov. 4—The transport Pueblo has been delayed and will not start for Manila till Sunday. The Newport sails Taesddy. ; ——— Race Riot In North Carolina. Newsono, N. C., Nov.4.—A riot broke out here today. Whites invaded a hall where negroes were holding a political meeting, by breaking down the doors. Serious trouble is anticipated. More Trouble For the Turks. Canga, Crete, Nov.4.—Troops representing European powers have taken possession of Turkish fortifications. ‘Laid Up In the Hospital With Fever. WasHinaton, November 4th—General Anse McCook of the War Inveatigation Board is laid up in the hospital
with malarial fever. h: An Understanding: Is Suspected. . Lonpon, Nov, 4.—It is believed the German Emperor and the Sultan have . an understanding and that the Sultan has been promised protection and maintenance in return’ for which Turkey grants Germany special commercial and industrial privileges in Asia Minor. : JAPAN is making great head way in the manufacturing world. It is a Strange fact that it is now manufacturing modern war material for the use of western nations. Six big guns. turned out at the Japanese Government arsenal at Osaka were supplied to the Portuguese Government. SES AUST EN : Recent statistics show that, under 15 years there are more boys than girls, but over 75 years there are more women than men, and from the ages of 90 to 100 the proportion is about 3 to 2 in favor of the women. THE Victory rests with America’s Greatest Medicine, Hood’s Sarsaparilla, when it battles against any, disease caused or promoted by impure or impoverished blood. Hoop’s Pitts are the favorite family cathartic. Easy to take, easy to oper: ate. -OF one to seé that there is a full vote. ~ Bememper that election day is fast approaching, and it is the duty of every Repoblican to use his influence and best euideavors for the success of the: ticket. We bave presented, for our! support a ticket that wecan well af: ford to work for. We have faith to. believe that it is the winning ticket. All indications seem to point that way. We must remember, however, the words of one of the early apostles, “that faith without words is dead.” It is the individual’ effort of every member of the party that rolls up the majorities we like to see. Personal concern to get out the full vote counts for more than all the curbstone arguments in the whole campaign. Let every Republican appoint himself a committee RememBer thata Républican triumph at the polls next Tuesday will be considered by the Spanish Peace Commissioners: as an endorsement of the demands of the United States Government, and show that the Administration will be supported despite the attempts of its opponents to disparage the capacity for action of our army through disease. os Don’t fail to vote Tuesday. Remember that Blaine was defeated by 1,052 ballots counted for Cleveland in Sig . part of New York City, while more than that number of Republicans in . the country towns of that State failed to vote or voted for Ben. Butler, the . Greenback candidate. Vote, and vote straight. Your vote may secure some one’s election. WHEN You vote for H. M. La Rue, by that vote you say you are in favor of closing down all mines in Nevada county in order that the Valley people may have clear water in the rivers. When you vote against La Rue you virtually say that we will not endorse the infamous La Rue proposition. . BORN.
