PEAcEABLE. The peaceablc manner in
which the primary election of Thursday
passed off, and the limited number of fights
which occurred subsequently, speak volumes
for the good nature of our population, and
the excellent quality of the liquors sold in
this borough at one bit per glass. We don't
believe there is another community in CAL
ifornia comprising so many drinkers, and so
much bit whiskey that has been so peaceably
disposed as ours at any election that has
taken place this season. Good for Oroville!
She is redeeming herself, and if she had
would deserve O vast amount thereof for
her good behavior.

Weller men will secure the delegates to the

this highly important matter. And it is ne
cessary that immediate action be had if Con-
gress intends that these grand communion

the public lands are being frittered away SC

repeat, these roads are desirable, and are to
be built by means Of grants of land by Con-

can be built-the approaching session of
Congress should not be allowed TO pass
without making provisions for their con-
struction.
