OCT. 27, 1898. blished every eveni z except jandars sad Taanl oldnys by BROWN & CALKINS. N. P. BROWN. L. 6. CALKINS. Tue Los Angeles Times has published a list of 72 voters in the county of San Bernardino who have recently received, under the Congressional frank of J. G. Maguire, documents advocating the Single Tax. This, as the Marysville Appeal suggests, is the best possible evidence that heis giving active support to the crusade of the Single Taxers. Through the use of his franking privilege, the dissemination of Single Tax literature is relieved of the cost of postage. But the fact that he is franking this sort of reading matter to the voters of California serves tostil}] further identify him with the hateful scheme of confiscation which is thus trying to gain converts. It is useless for Maguire to pretend that the Single Tax is not an issue when heis doing all he can to fasten it upon the State. H. M. La Rog, the Democratic candidate for re-electioa—in—this /district_as Railroad a pitable condition. In order to get elected four years ago he made. extravagant pledges as to what he would do if elected in the way of reducing freight rates. These pledges he has made no pretense of fulfilling, and he is now being arraigned by press and people for his perfidy and demagogy. So faras we have observed he has not been up to this. time able to find ‘any newspaper or person to act as his apologist. Commissioner, occupies Tue Sacramento fusionists are out in a card charging that I. Boysen, a photographer who used to be located at Nevada City, broke faith with them recently by announcing himself as an independent candidate for Supervisor. Joun P. Irisu, the ablest Democratic orator in the State, has come out in opposition to Maguire and the fusion campaign. The fusionists are “getting it in the neck” all around. SET Te WuHeaT is going up again. This means prosperity for the farmers and prosperity means more votes for the Republican ticket. Everything is coming our way this fall. WHY THE GENERAL STOOD. A Beautiful Patriotic Custom T. at Nevada City Should Adopt. The other day when Gen. Barnes of San Francisco was here and addressed a Republican -meeting at the theater one of the selections played by the band was “The Star Spangled Banner.” While the piece was being rendered Gen. Barnes arose from his chair on the platform and remained standing until the band had finished playing the national air. Many people in the audience did not know that this was a mark of reverence for our national air. It has been the custom for some time in most of the large cities throughout the country for audiences at public gatherings to arise and remain standing whenever “The Star Spangled Banuer” is being played. In some places the orchestras at theaters play the above selection at the close of the entertainment, the audience standing until the music ceases and then passing out. —_——--+ +0 To be Submitted Tomorrow. The case of McAulay against the Tahoe Ice Company will not get to the jury till tomorrow, which will be the eighth day of the trial. There has been a stubborn but brilliant battle between attorneys Walling and Ford and a great amount of testimony has been taken. The arguments will probably consume the most of tomorrow.

In the meantime over 600 of the 800 men working at Grass Valley will be thrown service at Manila. Their going, it 1s, further declared, will be due to the in-. fluence brought to bear at Washington by Adjutant General Barrett.

A NEWLY discovered Story about Henry Clay is to the effeect.that when his wife was asked if she was not worried by his gambling she replied: “Oh, not at all. Mr. Clay always wins.” THE first missionary movement to the Philippines is the exportation to tbose islands of 489,600 bottles of Milwaukee beer. The only native brew there just now is trouble. It was a Boston gamin who, when apprehended in an alley with a sprinkling can full of beer, stated loftily that he was “accelerating the speed of the murmurer.” Stomach Trouble Stomach trouble is the common name applied to a derangement of the system which is kéenly felt but vaguely understood. It may mean inability to retain food or to digest it. It may mean nausea, pain after eating, fullness, inordinate craving for food, or entire lack of appetite. Whatever it means, there’s trouble, and it’s with the stomach. If you have stomach trouble, you will be interested in this letter from a man who had it and was cured by Ayer’s IHAS NO TIME TO FIGHT.

The public of this country has began’s Alley during the last few years. , That playground of wits is now looked on as one of the best known features . many stories, caricatures, cartoons and . tales published about the place and its people by R. F. Outcalt, of the New York World, and ather journalists. The “Yellow Kid” is as well known as) Admiral Dewey, and the theater pa-! trons of this city will be pleased to} learn that Mickey Dogan, the famous . original Yellow Kid, is to be at the . theater to-night together with his side ; partner, Tiddlewinks. They are com‘ing with tbat most laughable and
highly successful comedy, “Hogan’s Alley.” “Hogan’s Alley” is a merry bit of nonsense, with just enough plot to make a continuous interesting story. jItis constructed arouud the original ‘characters who reside in Hogan’s Alley, ;and keeps its audience in screams of . laughter from curtain to curtain. Ho_gan, the boss of the Alley; Brogan his rival; Lix the Yellow Kid’s sweetheart; the goat and all the rest of the merry throng are in it. The company is headed by Campbell and Caulfield and includes besides Mickey Dugan and Tiddlewinks, Thomson and Green, W. Frank Rhodes; Alice Joy, Estelle Clayton, Annie Driver, Gladys Castleton and Gracie King. It is said of Mr. Maguire that he -knows a good horse when he rides it, and that he has no notion of swapping horses in the middle of a stream, but the only horse that Mr. Maguire knows is the anti-espee nag on which he rode into political prominence, rode into congress four times, and is now trying to ride into the gubernatorial chair. But the nag is getting old and decrepit. Its ribs may be counted through its hide from a far off, and Mr. Maguire will soon be afoot and alone in the midst of vast popocratic desolation. The building of the Valley road is killing the local ‘‘espee” question, and the recent action of congress has taken the matter of the debts/of the aided roads out of issue. By cutting off that upon which Maguire’s charger feeds the old nag is made a candidate for the boneyard. . Maguire stands for the single tax. The single tax stands for confiscation. If the funding bill were really the Washington. If the single tax were the issue, the call would be to Sacramento. What, then, do his actions proclaim the issue to be?

They have not questioned his ability, his honesty, or his industry, but, as with have made faces at him and alleged that he at some time in the years of long ago filed a brief as attorney for the Southern Pacific company,a fact which is held to disqualify any Republican aspirant. for a judicial or other office, but is not to be considered when a Democrat has aspirations of a similar nature. The fact that Stephen M. White was for many years attorney for ‘the Southern Pacific eompany was regarded as a mere testimony to his ability as a lawyer, whereas a similar. testimony in the years of long ago to the legal aitainments of Mr. Justice McFarland is held as a disqualification and a brand of ownership.
