Transcript:—My wrist is weak but my heart is strong. I am not afraid to tell you the situation here, politically, as I see it, There -will be eight tickets in the field, each with a heading on the Llanket sheet. Luckily, the names are numbered; and so we can pick out.’the men we waot to vote for. As for me I vote the State ticket straight. In municipal affairs there are conditions existing that very few outside of this city understand. But, be it said to your credit, you have solved the problem. Your short articles on the political situation here evince an intelligeace that is remarkable in an interior journal. I am surprised and delighted that you grasp the situation so thoroughly: It is a strange state of affairs. In the firat place, the combination made between Mr. Fitch, of .the *‘Bulletin” and ‘‘Call,” and Mr. Hearst, ‘of the ‘‘Examiner,” in the Non-Partisan movement here, is like the mingling of oi and water. ‘hey cannot coalesce. In one thing they are agreed—Mr, Burns must be beaten as a leader. No lie is too great, no slander too stupendous to accomplish this end, Not only is Mr. Burns maligned, but his friends as well. Let me tell you briefly and truthfully about the Registration Offiec here, and this I do of my own volition, I ‘have consulted@with no one. Mr. Evans, the Registrar, who happens to be happily married to the sister of Mr. Burns’ wife, comes in for an amount of abuse that is shameful and misleading. It is his duty to see that the registration is kept free from fraud. After the completion of registration in the central office precinct registration commences. This -lasts. five days. It is supposed that the affidavits and books are returned to the Registrar’s office every night, ‘The necessity for this is very apparent. There are two sets of books kept or written up in the office—one set is called the ‘‘Black” books, which are the originals, and the others the ‘*‘White” books, which are copies of the first. The ‘‘Black’’ books, and the affidavits upon which they are based, are always kept.in the office, while the ‘‘White” books are sent to the printer to have the precinct registers ‘‘set up” from. How~necessary it is, then, that these “Black” books which were in the hands of [the precinct boards, should be returned to the Registrar every night in order that a copy might be made.in the ‘‘White” books, 30 that, upon the completion of registration they could be immediately placed in the hands of the printer. But would you believe it? By order of their masters, the Democratic boards of registration (there were two Democrats to one Republican on each board) held back their books for even three days after registration had closed; and all this was acquiesced in by that bull-frog Ellert. [he papers, too, seemed to think there was nothing wrong -in it. And why should there be? Was not Mr. Evans Registrar, and was not Mr. Evans married to a sister of Mr. Burns’ wife? Anything to beat Burhs, is the cry of these papers. The next thing LT expect to see is that they will accuse him of murdering his mother-in-law. As far as the State is concerned, have no fear. ‘‘Buck-board Jim” has had his day. At first I was afraid that. Estee would not pull through, but now my fears have subsided, and I rest in the calm consciousness . ‘that his battle is won, I wish that Mr. Waite could be made to see the crror he has fallen into, Let him rémember the campaign. of 1865 and 1867. Who wielded a weighter pen in his denunciation of bolters? Who was more bitter in his invectives? It don’t seem possible that it can be the same E.G. Waite. He wasa stalwart. What! Attempt to defeat the regular nominee, when he has not the slightest chance of being elected himself. Well, Iam tempted to use a Latin phrase, but I won’t. I will simply say, ‘‘Oh, the times! Oh, the mauners! Your readers will understand that better than if I had put it in the original language. I-keep my promise. As far as local politics is concerned I think you are right in regard to Mr. James. [n the last few weeks a decided change has coine over the minds of the voters, I am surprised, Don’t you take any stock in the whooping-up of the Non-Partisan movement. In the language of ‘‘Don Ceasar de Bazan,” I can say, ‘‘] told you how ’twould be.” It may interest you, as aside issue, to know that your humble (?) correspondent was sent for to help this boom ; but with a smile in his eye and thanks on his lips he declined the kind offer, I believe that ‘Jim’ Block, the Democratic and.Non-Partisan nominee for Tax Collector, will be elected. I believe that Judge Coffey will succeed himself.

Tam, Broad street, has jult received a ane assortment of the best and purest canFresh oysters always The Republican State Central Co nmittee. has canceled the political meeting advertised to be addressed by Senator Tirey L. Ford at North San Juan on Thursday evening, November Ist. _On that evening Mr. Ford will speak at Grass Valley, in conjunction x REPLY TO M. E. L. Man. Is [Physically Stronger Than Woman. Eprror TraNgcrirt: Pressure of business has prevented an earlier reply to the critique which appeared in your issue of the 20th instant, over the psendonym of ‘‘M. E.L.” In the premise I shall presume that my opponent is a lady, for I have yet +o discover a member of the male. gender, however. accomplished in other professions he may be, who possesses the infinite power as belonging to the feminine sphere, and not one word shall escape my pen that will be effensive to the most refined and cultured taste.It is needless to say that on reading the isssue of your paper already referred to, I was surprised to notice the following in big headlines: ‘‘Will Samuel Butler Test’ the Physical Condition ot Some _ Strong Man?” , Not being well trained in gymnastits, and not possessing any exceptional pugilistic ability, I concluded before reading the missive, thinking that it might be an ill omen, that I would not “test the physical condition of some strong man” and run the risk of receiving a good drubbing. But my astonishment was , still greater when, wu perusing “M, EL L,’s” letter, I diséovered that the condition of the test was as follows: ‘‘He must be housekeepe ;, cook, lanndress, seamstress, chambermaid, nurse butler and usually valet of the house,” a cold shiver permeated my system when I saw that all the duties were not ennumerated in the category. . My preferences have always been with the gentler sex, bu: when my opponent asserts that I must regale myself. in the habiliments of a woman, wear corsets and long dresses and all the other regalia of a woman’s wardrobe, too delicate for mention in the columns of a. newepaper because of their peculiar nature, I must draw the line -of demarcation very clearly and leave the field open to some other chivalrous knight, whose ambitions run in that direction. I do not think that the test suggested by M. E. L.” is relevant to the subject under discussion. It would would not be an impartial test, for'the condition of life of the two sexés is widely divergent. They live in two different spheres. A man in order .to thoroughly understand the endurance and physical prowness of woman must himself io transformation ever occurs to the writer, if pared. to discuss the question from a woman’s standpoint. Until such a metamorphosis occurs, I shall remain content point of view. opponent, if argument you may call it, places me.jna yery awkward position. She says: stantiated. One is that women are physi-] cally weaker than men and have not the endurance.” Before I began the preparation of this reply I carefully perused my first article to ascertain whether ‘“‘M. E. L.” was correct in her interpretation of it, I find this remark regarding woman’s inferiority: ‘But whatever position she may: occupy, she will always remain the weaker of the sexes,” The word ‘‘endurance” is not used at all. ing to indicate that I believe woman to be inferior to man in point of endurance. In fact, I quoted several instances te show that woman is the equal of man in courage and power of endurance, While it is easy for a person that wields a pen to dispute another’s statement, it is not so easy to disprove the same. In her criticisms my opponent has not adduced one argument to preve that woman is physically as strong as man or as capable of accomplishing an equal amount of physical labor. To bring into requisition to prove her equality from a physical standpoint such an illustration as that of dressing a man up in woman’s attire, making him housekeeper, cook, chambermaid, etc., is the sheerest nonsense, It proves nothing. I surmise that my opponent is well enough acquainted with household duties to know that such things can only be acquired by persistent application and long experience, And my personal experience has taught me that it will take more than the time allotted to the human race for some women to be capable of accomplishing one-fourth of the duties enumerated by her. It would be as logical if I were to ask her to go into a field and plow with the sime skill and energy as a man who has made a life study of farming. would go intoa mine and drill a hole or put into place a ‘'set of timbera” with the same alacrity and skill as a miner would do, The Judicruousness of such a proposi tion would be apperent to any one, for exFeellenee in these professions can only be acquired by years of labor-and. experience. Household duties are nota test of physical ability. They may be a test of ‘endurance. But the two are widely different. Endurance isa creature of the will. It means sufferance, fortitude, patience, etc, Therefore it must be evident to the most uncultured mind that the virtue of endurance is not contiguous to physical ability. If it is, then man must possess a larger pro rata of the virtue because he is physically stronger. But the duties of woman. are such as to require this virtue in a greater degree, Ihave seen the virtue of endurance strongly exemplified in the male gender. I once knew a poor man with a. large fami y of small children, whose wife was taken deriously iJIl. He had noone to as. sist him. He would work in a mine for ten hours a day; return home in the evening and cook the food for the family, attend to all the household duties and the wants of his children, and then sit up all night and nurse his sick wife, and go to work in the morning without having had a moment’s self was exhausted and succumbed to th severe strain, That is an example of en of mind to grasp all the duties designated . , Or I might ask her to find a woman who] sleep. This was continued until nature itsexes, controvérsy from a scientific standpoint as to the relative physical ability of the two sexes—male and female. 1f we accept the origin of the human race as recorded in ‘the Bible, we shall find that woman was created out of man as a helpmeet to man. This reference to biblical history does not imply the acceptation on the part of the writer as being a correct one, But history and _tradition prove that woman is the weaker of the sexes because of her peculiar construction. Physiologists are all agreed on this point. She has never entered into competition with man in the performance of physical labor. The human body may be regarded as a. machine, although it must be confessed that it surpasses the most perfect work of men’s hands, Now this machine, as found in the person of a woman, is the person of a man, but while’ the one is constructed and intended .to perform the coarser and more arduvus duties of life, the other must always be* réserved to perform the more refined and delicate duties assigned to the human race. It is an impossibility for woman to accomplish the same physical feats asaccomplished by man. But when it comes to a question of intellectual accomplishment or professional skill, I do not/sge any reason why woman should not be the equal of man, Pendin a more convincing and definite argument -E-shall—adhere_to-_my original ‘assertion, “That woman is the weaker of the sexes,” SamvurL Bur.er, Nevada City, Oct. 25, 94.

Ford at North San Juan on Thursday evening, November Ist. _On that evening Mr. Ford will speak at Grass Valley, in conjunction x REPLY TO M. E. L. Man. Is [Physically Stronger Than Woman. Eprror TraNgcrirt: Pressure of business has prevented an earlier reply to the critique which appeared in your issue of the 20th instant, over the psendonym of ‘‘M. E.L.” In the premise I shall presume that my opponent is a lady, for I have yet +o discover a member of the male. gender, however. accomplished in other professions he may be, who possesses the infinite power as belonging to the feminine sphere, and not one word shall escape my pen that will be effensive to the most refined and cultured taste.It is needless to say that on reading the isssue of your paper already referred to, I was surprised to notice the following in big headlines: ‘‘Will Samuel Butler Test’ the Physical Condition ot Some _ Strong Man?” , Not being well trained in gymnastits, and not possessing any exceptional pugilistic ability, I concluded before reading the missive, thinking that it might be an ill omen, that I would not “test the physical condition of some strong man” and run the risk of receiving a good drubbing. But my astonishment was , still greater when, wu perusing “M, EL L,’s” letter, I diséovered that the condition of the test was as follows: ‘‘He must be housekeepe ;, cook, lanndress, seamstress, chambermaid, nurse butler and usually valet of the house,” a cold shiver permeated my system when I saw that all the duties were not ennumerated in the category. . My preferences have always been with the gentler sex, bu: when my opponent asserts that I must regale myself. in the habiliments of a woman, wear corsets and long dresses and all the other regalia of a woman’s wardrobe, too delicate for mention in the columns of a. newepaper because of their peculiar nature, I must draw the line -of demarcation very clearly and leave the field open to some other chivalrous knight, whose ambitions run in that direction. I do not think that the test suggested by M. E. L.” is relevant to the subject under discussion. It would would not be an impartial test, for'the condition of life of the two sexés is widely divergent. They live in two different spheres. A man in order .to thoroughly understand the endurance and physical prowness of woman must himself io transformation ever occurs to the writer, if pared. to discuss the question from a woman’s standpoint. Until such a metamorphosis occurs, I shall remain content point of view. opponent, if argument you may call it, places me.jna yery awkward position. She says: stantiated. One is that women are physi-] cally weaker than men and have not the endurance.” Before I began the preparation of this reply I carefully perused my first article to ascertain whether ‘“‘M. E. L.” was correct in her interpretation of it, I find this remark regarding woman’s inferiority: ‘But whatever position she may: occupy, she will always remain the weaker of the sexes,” The word ‘‘endurance” is not used at all. ing to indicate that I believe woman to be inferior to man in point of endurance. In fact, I quoted several instances te show that woman is the equal of man in courage and power of endurance, While it is easy for a person that wields a pen to dispute another’s statement, it is not so easy to disprove the same. In her criticisms my opponent has not adduced one argument to preve that woman is physically as strong as man or as capable of accomplishing an equal amount of physical labor. To bring into requisition to prove her equality from a physical standpoint such an illustration as that of dressing a man up in woman’s attire, making him housekeeper, cook, chambermaid, etc., is the sheerest nonsense,

It proves nothing. I surmise that my opponent is well enough acquainted with household duties to know that such things can only be acquired by persistent application and long experience, And my personal experience has taught me that it will take more than the time allotted to the human race for some women to be capable of accomplishing one-fourth of the duties enumerated by her. It would be as logical if I were to ask her to go into a field and plow with the sime skill and energy as a man who has made a life study of farming. would go intoa mine and drill a hole or put into place a ‘'set of timbera” with the same alacrity and skill as a miner would do, The Judicruousness of such a proposi tion would be apperent to any one, for exFeellenee in these professions can only be acquired by years of labor-and. experience. Household duties are nota test of physical ability. They may be a test of ‘endurance. But the two are widely different. Endurance isa creature of the will. It means sufferance, fortitude, patience, etc, Therefore it must be evident to the most uncultured mind that the virtue of endurance is not contiguous to physical ability. If it is, then man must possess a larger pro rata of the virtue because he is physically stronger. But the duties of woman. are such as to require this virtue in a greater degree, Ihave seen the virtue of endurance strongly exemplified in the male gender. I once knew a poor man with a. large fami y of small children, whose wife was taken deriously iJIl. He had noone to as. sist him. He would work in a mine for ten hours a day; return home in the evening and cook the food for the family, attend to all the household duties and the wants of his children, and then sit up all night and nurse his sick wife, and go to work in the morning without having had a moment’s self was exhausted and succumbed to th severe strain, That is an example of en of mind to grasp all the duties designated . , Or I might ask her to find a woman who] sleep. This was continued until nature itsexes, controvérsy from a scientific standpoint as to the relative physical ability of the two sexes—male and female. 1f we accept the origin of the human race as recorded in ‘the Bible, we shall find that woman was created out of man as a helpmeet to man. This reference to biblical history does not imply the acceptation on the part of the writer as being a correct one, But history and _tradition prove that woman is the weaker of the sexes because of her peculiar construction. Physiologists are all agreed on this point. She has never entered into competition with man in the performance of physical labor. The human body may be regarded as a. machine, although it must be confessed that it surpasses the most perfect work of men’s hands, Now this machine, as found in the person of a woman, is the person of a man, but while’ the one is constructed and intended .to perform the coarser and more arduvus duties of life, the other must always be* réserved to perform the more refined and delicate duties assigned to the human race. It is an impossibility for woman to accomplish the same physical feats asaccomplished by man. But when it comes to a question of intellectual accomplishment or professional skill, I do not/sge any reason why woman should not be the equal of man, Pendin a more convincing and definite argument -E-shall—adhere_to-_my original ‘assertion, “That woman is the weaker of the sexes,” SamvurL Bur.er, Nevada City, Oct. 25, 94.
