MARIE DE- L~ANDsFELDT Hull,

This letter caused the offending editor
to think again. Lola danced, and a change
came DER the Californian, and its editor
wrote thus Of the gentle Lola:
EVERY time she cut a pigeon wing or
performed a pirouette, The loud encore
arose from an sppreciative audience per-
lecty wild with delight On no former
occasion in this city has she appeared so
bewilching, enchaming-on no former &C.
casion has she danced with such v~ivacity
and spirit, poised with such grace, or con.
Quoted her auditors SO successfully through
the regions of bliss"

mOcracy will take care of that, | beg leave,
most respectfully, TO decline being a can

mocracy Of the district, | would say, be
on your guard. The Why party, though
almost hopelessly d~isorganized, is neither
dead nor asleep, but looking about for cT.

of every difficulty hat may occur in our
ranks. Should we fail in securing the
majority in the next Legislature, all that
we have gained by the adoption of the

thens of government, by placing on the
tax list the property of corporations, the

by providing the "Crow bar" as the
means of collecting the tax; | say all this
and much more, would be lost, should our
opponents succeed in getting The control
of the next Legislature. In conclusion |
will say, that although | shall not be en-
gagged as a candidate in The contest now
at. hand, | shall, nevertheless, be with
you, in the contest for the Heaven born
principles of equality. Let US 60 10 work
then, and nominate a ticket of good men
and True, and having made such nomina.
tons, we should then take our stand on
the time hOnOred platform of the democ-
racy, and occupying that proud position,
throw aside all collateral issues that are
calculated to d%isorganize, and also all pre-
f%erences that we may have had for men,
and give our united support to the ticket,
and all will be well.
Very truly yours,
JOHN MACK.
