Now a question arises: How-is a representative to know the will of his constituency? During the campaign whith ended, by the election. of Gov. Booth and a large majority of Republicans to the lower house-of our State Legislature every Repnblicanin the State was pledged to the repéalof what we termed then, the infamous five per cent:‘law. We Republicans rang the changes-ipon that law andit was the. . biggest cudgel we uséd towards beating out the brains of the Democratic party, I myself used it pretty effectually during the campaign against Governor Haight and his party, and if I mistake not the Tranrcrirr aided and assisted materially in the werk. The Senator and the representatives elected from this county at that time, stood pledged to the people,.not only to the repeal of the Five Per Cent. Lawy but. also to the reduction of fares and freights upon railroads. Now we will suppose that ‘*Gnik’’ had been elected to the Senate at the period mentioned, under such a pledge: ‘That the citizens of Grass Valley and Nevada desired the construction of # railroadfrom Col. fax to the respective places named, and for this purpose of procuring aid from the county, in the way of subsi-: dy, had petitioned him to vote to exclude Nevada county from the repeal of the Five Per Cent.

Would he have voted to repeal the law so far as other counties are concerned, leaving it in full force ini Nevada county, om would he have carried out his pledge and voted for its repeal, without exceptions? According to the prinei. ples enunciated in his ecommunica-. tion, I judge that he would have violated his pledge, and retained the law on the statute books. , “Gnik’’ says he has confidence.in the people: “that all power is vested in the peoconstructed, They ‘might possibly . F Be induced to vote to take stock to. that amount, but certainly not to give that sum to a.corporation to construct a road. I make avast distinction between the -subscribing to the . capital sto¢k for a railroad, and the giving of money or bonds in the shape of subsidy. ‘‘Gnik,”’ on the contrary, thinks it “e. distinction withouta difference:’” I think, on the contrary, there: is* a vast distinction He says it is. as well as difference. aid to build a railroad. whether the money be given or the stock subscribed. I say too itis aid to build a railroad, but if the amount voted by the county is taken in-stock, the whole of the county willbe benefitted ca if the road shall prove~ profitable, while on the contrary, if givenin the Lway. of subsidy,.however.profitable. the-tnvestment might be to stockholders, the people of the county who. pay taxes for the redemption of the bonds and accruing interest, -will obtain nothing except perhaps an increase of the assessment-#oll of the county, and an increase of the rate of taxation to pay interest on the bonds, and in-the end, the principal. . ‘O.

The talk is that at Jeast $100,000 must be contributed in some way by the county of Nevada for a railroad running from. Nevada . city, through Grass Valley and_ to seme point where there can be a rail _connection-with the outside world, Them’s the sentiments }entertained by ‘our people,, with ‘a few, very few exceptions.
