In the deluge of political pabulum which comes through the mail we note with approval ‘certain statemenits of Lieutenant Governor George J. Hatfield, seeking the Republican nomination for governor, concerning Bulbert L. Olson’s candidacy for the Democratic nomination. It calls to FIVE RIOTERS SENTENC mind how far the Democratic’ party ‘Highway headquarters at Marysvilhas Strayed from the ‘Wilson, Cleveland, and ithe Jefferson ideals of the ‘party. If an analysis were madé by some patient commentator, we suspect that it would ‘be found that tthe Republican Party closely approximates in practice the theories. of the thyeé exponents of Democratic government mentioned. Andrew Jackison we omit, for the reason that Jackson was sui generis, one only of his kind, and no kin politically to any of the great leaders of his party, including the present occupant of the White House. What Mr. Hatfield is saying re. garding the Republican party’s chief opponent in California, is what any citizen might well think. Hatfield expresses the though in careful well considered words and we therefore quote him: : “T have no personal feud with Mr.Olson, but I am in violent disagreement with Mr. Olson’s «policies and principles. Mr. Olson, for exainple, believes in “production for use’’—the End Poverty in California mirage first established by Upton Sinclair. Production for use, translated into layman’s language, is Communism.

Under Mr. Olson’s~plan, three counties of California would be placed in position to dittate to 55 other counties. I don’t like dictatorships and I don’t like Mr. Olson’s plan for minority gov-~ ernment. Mr. Olson, again, has fought vigorously —as a member of the State Legislature—for a onesided labor ‘relations .act, which would have established in California a eounterpart of the National Labor Relations Board. That \board, in my opinion, and mry opinion is shared by millions of union labor men — thas not been a fair labor tribunal. It has ‘been & partisan board, rendering decisions which favored one segment of labor as against another. And it has stirred up more ‘labor strife; more strikes and more disorders than any other agency in America. I don’t want to see that travtsey of labor justice dpulicated tin California. I don’t want to see a governor elected who will go. into office tagged with the CIO label. And that does not mean that I am opposed to the CLO.

And according to information we haye gleaned it will be quite a set up. In the first place it is for Murchieland Zeibright men and their wives and families, and they can bring friends, (tickets available at the gate); this ought itto make for a hummer crowd. In the second place they are having this affair up at the CCC camp on the Tahoe Ukiah highway, which is an ideal spot for an outdoor frolic. There is lots of shade, lots of room for games, there will be dancing and from what we can gather, there will ibe an abutidance of simply super food and grand cold beer available ko all, all of the time. The third (and by no means least) item that will tend to make this Murchie picnic a memorable one is the kindness and generosity of the mechants and the ‘business men in Nevada City.

It was tentatively proposed ‘when the new Broad street bridge is built through traffic down Sacramento across the bridge and up. Nevada street. The bridge which is being considered would be a double bridge accomodating both Broad and Main street traffic. In event one bridge is now substtituted for the two old bridges, it would be necessary to obtain additional rights of sway from the Standard Oil Co. which has a station adjacent and between the two bridges. If one bridge were substituted for the two it would be a three or four lane bridge, depending upon recommendations of the state highWay commission.
