District, the duty wifi devolve uron them of
electng District Judge, nj the approaching

The present Judge of Butte county hav-
ing announced to several gentlemen that he
will be q candidate for that position, VIC
would caution the Democracy Of the District
against being deceived into his support, as
he has used the official position given him
by the Democratic party, to sustain an or
ganizaton that has ever opposed Democratic
principles and Democratic men, as will be
seen by the following orders and rules cop,

Aside from this consideration, however, it
interested in much of the litiga alton that will
occupy the District Court of Butte county
for several years, and would be obliged to
try cases in which he was interested, or turn
them over to another Judge while he retired
upon his salary. lie has been employed as
an attorney in many of the cases that must
come before the District Court. lie has pur-
chased from professional squatters lands
that have been in the peaceable possession
of Cinnamon for years He has granted
parties the privilege of erecting buildings on
the Plaza, with the hope of gaining a recog
milton of the absurd claim Of his partners in
Oroyille land speculations, that they may
compel the county to pay them three thous-
and dollars for it. 1t is understood that
Judge Lewis, in connection with Messrs.
Harris & Burt, have agreed with Bird &
Morris, to htigate their claim to lands upon
which Oroville is located, for one third in
tercst in the same. Ills active supporters
for the Judgeship are his reputed partners
IN these transactions.
We ask the people of the district not to
corrupt the source of Justice by the clcva-
ton Of this man to its head, and thus com
pei the people Of Oroville and Eutte county,
to assemble en- masSe and maintain their
rights by an organized force, as was the
case with the recent Plaza operations.
