l. C. Woods, for L. S. Senator, until the
House of which Mr.. Woods was the
head, had failed, and inferring from that
fact that the Mountain papers were no
great affairs. Now, so far rs we wer,
acquainted with the fact, there " re but
three or four Of the mountain papers
that were caught in that snap and if
Mr.. Norman will not be quit so sweep

The Trinity Times, had the distinguished
honor of introducing Mr.. Woods into the
political arena, from which he was so
suddenly dropped by force Of circum>
stances. This nomination was seconded
by the Sierra Citizen, and we believe,
the Mountain Messenger. The Marys-
vile Herald, which is not strictly noun
tain paper, also supported Mr. Woods
These papers are doubtless able to take
care of themselves our only object be-
ing, to object to Mr. Norman's attack
on the entire Mountain press. We were
not of the number. We worship no
