We have been expecting for the past two weeks
to see this ticket hois:ed in she Democratic paper
published at Ilacerville, and also in the one puh'
lished at Diamond Springs; hut these professedly
democratic journals perveisely refuse to raise It
rhe first no doubt from chugrin at not receiving
the nomination for State printer; the latter, from
n sense of modesty, most likely.
Is it possible that an intention exists to bolt this
ticket, regularly nominated by the Democracy as
sembled in Convention the 23I Of June =! W lille
John Bigler leads the State ticket, H. t. Bruce and
p c. johnson lead the County ticket. MIR. join
son is one of the editors Of the Democratic pal cr
published at Diamond Springs, and also counsellor
and attorney at law, and was formerly connected
with the State Journal.
In the Assembly ticket will he found the name Of
Col Dickinson, gentleman and ripe democrat. the
only candidate ior any 1ice between the Middle
and South Folks of the American River. Also
Enoch N. Strout late unler-sheriff Of tins county,
and still later resident Of the city or county OF
San Francisco His S, journ in San Francisco will
qualify him to detect the unscrupulous schemes ot
the unscrupulous politicians of that place.
For County Clerk, the name of Asa ID. Wadron
is presented. Mr.. w. resides in Coloma. and is
the present "ef;cient, capable and indefats.lle'
Deputy Clerk We commend him to the kind con-
sideraon of the Democracy Notwithstanding his
sharpness in bleeding reporter.
G. +. Gibbs, is the nominee for Treasurer, resi-
dent of this town, an accomplished physician, and
o good citizen.
c. Hix is the nominee for Recorder. Nr. Hix
has been hard worker in the ranks of the dcmoc-
racy. His pecinct gave the largest lnajoriiy last
year. in proportion to population, of any in the
county. AS a reward for thorough and efficient
work the democracy should accord to him hearty
support.
We have not space to speak Of every candidate
and will therefore reserve those not noticed for
future occasion. 1t will be gratifying to see that
the democracy have no great love for lawyers,
while the yotares of the healing art come in for
large share of their afftctons-four, Mt least hav-
ing place on the county ticket.
