between the legislative and executive branches of our
city government which, " not abandoned. and beco ON
ing courtesy and good ling restored will lead to
interfere the part of the people which will
taiply not be agreeable TO the council however decid
cd IL may be in its effects.
The people are now beginning feel the necessity of
q stringent oversight and control of their public
wants and OF more careful and judcious selection of
of standing, character, and stake in the
nifty candidates for pubic Offices There has been
too much lsxiy and party legerdemain in former
elections; hut the people begin to experience the evils
which result from the election OF place hunters
and political schemers; and expect better class
of men TO be by this election The crude and
reckless legislation OF the Assembly has given birth
inpumersble compla ints; and the next Legislature
will have enough to do TO rectify the mistakes which
have already been committed And then again In
the City Council have had the most splorable
proofs OF sordd selfshness and mercenary designs of
need exposure and popular deDuncistion. When par
become rich by one years administration Of
city affairs il needs detail OF evidence to justify he
presum ption OF corrupt jobbery and mslversatiou
The principle of honor and public spirit laughed at
chin erics and absurd and self mt is
the only motive OF the mercensry crew of parvsnue
place hunters and Political sshemers In California.
Dear bought experience will however. teach the
pie the madness and folly o trusting their affairs aud
resources in tueh unworthy hands, and the wisdom
and ceesity of choosing men Of higher stamp Of
char acter and competency who shall be independent
Hsttsrng their constituents before election, and Of
hood wnking and pluua-rns them stterwards
The entire tone and aspect OF 'isty In San Fran

tentiou to public cecoT2m and to personal decency

considerable extent
Social intercourse ia altogether better and
more wholesome foo,ing and the heterogeneous ele-
msnts of the community begin ming to blend harmo
nously, and to min2le In friendly unison aud honor

complete this happy change the incre of family
and female inmigration and we think the day Is not
far distant when Thousands who are now In California
only With view of making pile and returning to
their families will find It to their account to prolong
their residence here and to send for their families to
reside here with them And when they CONS they
shall zee beauties and enjoy ments In Caifo rnia which
may induce the eventually make their homes In

be made and where character and enterpriss VIII
