Gaze, the Republican nominee for governor of California, if one of the plain people of the ‘state. His parentage was of the middle walks of life, honorable and worthy, but not rich. Mr. Gage was born in 1853, near Geneva, New York, but when a child removed with his parents to Michigan where he received a _fair education and was taught habits of unremitting industry. Atthe age of 20 he was admitted.to the bar and, three years later, came to California and settled in . the southern part of the states. When necessity required he did not hesitate to don the ciothing of a workingman and earn his live ihood by swinging a . sledge and holding a drillin the mines, and he has never since been afraid o! honest work in any form. But his rise was rapid. Possessing a personality that is pleasing and friendly, he soon formed a large circle of acquaintances which speedily became his friends, and gave him a large clientage for his profession. He has been prosperous w.thout becoming'a millionsire. aman of note without becoming in the least e'evated in his own estimation, or removed from that companiouship with and sympathy for the great mags of mankind who do the world’s work and possess the larger share of the world’s virtue. : Without being a politician, or ever before being a candidate for oflice, he has nevertheless been a consistent Republigan, and given the party a hearty and generous support, Mr. Gage is a man of famiiy, dome: tic in his tastes, and a good neighbor and a fast friend. As alawyer, he has been able to se= . : lect his cases, and has never foreé ose amortgage that deprived a person of his home, never’ appeared in’ éourt against a friend, and never as counse. for a Byndicate or corporation, except to defend the Los Angeles ““Times-Mirror’ company when sued for libel. Mr. Gage’s candidacy for governor was urged upon him by his friends and associates at Los Angeles and, when once it was announced it took like wildfire, and it is no discredit to opposing candidates to say that they were overwhe med by the enthusiasm with which Mr. Gage’s honorable ambition was every where received. As governor he will be the same man that he l.as been, hones‘, capable, unassuming and as free of exterior control as the winds of heaven, but being a self-poised and self-centered man he will mark out an administration with intelligence, and follow it with percision and courage. In making his campaign, Mr. Gage resorts to no demagogic methods, indulges in no rash promises but; standing uyon the record of thirty years of active life as a laborer, lawyer, farmer and miner, he permits that record and the thousands of personal friends he has made while making the record, to be a testithony of what he will do when he is governor. He is a growing man, and will grow upon the peop'e. The more people know of him the better they will like him. Advertised Letters.

Johnston, a Grass Valley young man not yet quite 21 years old, wherein he is charged with having wronged Beatrice Smith, a sixteen year old girl, is still on trial in the Superior Court.

The Virginia City Chronicle of last evening says: A late arrival from Butte City, Montana, is authority for the statement that a score or more of former Comstock residents are en route home, some of them on Pullman trains and others on foot and on brakebeam specials. The cause of this hegira from the erstwhile mecca of pilgrims from the old lode is diagnosed as due to inability to stand the arctic temperature of Montana during the winter months and the prospects of obtaining employment here when deep mining is resumed. Tho resumption of work in Comstock mines will result in the return of former residents from every mining camp on the Pacific slope, many of whom now in Arizona and other desert regions will not tarry long enough to pick the cactus thorns from their toes or to shake the scorpions, horned toads and lizards . out of their blankets in their haste to return to the old lode which in boaming times éclipsed al! other mining regions on the globe. li things.good, trne and beautiful, are c'aimed for the sing’e tax, jnst as they have been ciaimned for state socialism, free trade, free love, oany one of the thousand reforms that have had their day in the world and died out of it, but ea calm inquiry into each of the ben‘ficent contentions will disclose its chimerical character. If Maguire has no sympathy with anarchists why did he oppose restricting their immigration to this country and declare that resistance to tyranny was the occasion of their offending and the measure of their service to God?

Garrett recommends immediate negotiations with the postal administrations of England,Germany and France to reduce the international postage rates to two cents a half ounce or fraction thereof. This will be good news correspondence with parties inthe o!d countries, as they now have to pay five cents for each half ounce or fraction. No Taxation For Protection.

The Virginia City Chronicle of last evening says: A late arrival from Butte City, Montana, is authority for the statement that a score or more of former Comstock residents are en route home, some of them on Pullman trains and others on foot and on brakebeam specials. The cause of this hegira from the erstwhile mecca of pilgrims from the old lode is diagnosed as due to inability to stand the arctic temperature of Montana during the winter months and the prospects of obtaining employment here when deep mining is resumed. Tho resumption of work in Comstock mines will result in the return of former residents from every mining camp on the Pacific slope, many of whom now in Arizona and other desert regions will not tarry long enough to pick the cactus thorns from their toes or to shake the scorpions, horned toads and lizards . out of their blankets in their haste to return to the old lode which in boaming times éclipsed al! other mining regions on the globe. li things.good, trne and beautiful, are c'aimed for the sing’e tax, jnst as they have been ciaimned for state socialism, free trade, free love, oany one of the thousand reforms that have had their day in the world and died out of it, but ea calm inquiry into each of the ben‘ficent contentions will disclose its chimerical character. If Maguire has no sympathy with anarchists why did he oppose restricting their immigration to this country and declare that resistance to tyranny was the occasion of their offending and the measure of their service to God?

We put Postum ‘on in cold water. It takes about 15 min. utes before it begins to boil, then we allow it to actually boil 15 minutes, which as you say, brings out the deligions flavor and good value. Mr, and Mrs, Miller of this city, are using Postum right along. Mrs, Miller has beex a great sufferer from dyspepsia, had to give up coffee entirely on that account.
