expense Of many thousand dollars. In
some cases Gov. Randall may be too tech
nical; in some cases appsrant hardship may
be cadsed-s-but there is scarcely legiti-
mate business project which cannot be
reached by the general laws Of the State,
without the intervention Of special acts Of
the Legislature. The whole system has
grown out of the desire to give petty
schemes of an association of individuals
speculative value By investing them with
the dignity which law Of a state respect

Elk GRovE House. BURNEp.--About two
o'clock yesterday morning, the Elk Grove
House, a fine hotel owned by Hesser & Irwin,
and situated about 10 miles on the upper
Stockton road. was totally consumed by ite.
II was first discovered in the rear part Of
the building. which was in few minutes
envcloped in flames. A milk house, about
elk or eight rods distant, was also discovered
TO be on fire at the same time, which leads
to the conclusion that il was the work of an
incendiary. The Elk Grove Post Office was
also kept in the same building, the contents
Of which, rs also those of the hotel. were
consumed, with the exception Of few chairs
The inmates barely escaped with their night
clothes. The loss was about So 900. Some
$50 in money, and several valuable papers,
were destroyed in tho pockets Of Mr.. Hesser's ,

the s.cramento Conv.n,,on.

The Lecomptonites of Sacramento, finding
an opportunity to carry their plans, did set
"bolt as they promised to do if they found
themselves likely to be beaten by the Doug
las men. They claim q victory--a victory
over Mayor Dyer. because he 10 q con nsistsnt
adhsrsnt to the accepted platform Of the
Democratic party. Well. il beating him be-
cause he 10 in favor Of popular sovereignty
is triumph, than the Iecom ptonites must
enjoy their glory a, best they can. Bot Che
simple beating Of Mayor Dyer is one thing /;
obtaining q victory over the principles oi
which Mr.. Douglas is the able exponent ID
another. We have Just as much faith in ths
fidelity Of the Democracy Of Sacramento to
the doctrines set forth in the C.r9innatti
Platform. now, as We had before the Lecomp.
ton log rollers Of that Convent ton had &C
eomplished their purpose.
We claim that, in the first place, neither
Mayor Dyer nor his position on the Kansas
question were ignored by the people. Hi
defeat was accomplished by wire workers
and not by the people by misrepr esenta
tions to the country delegates; by workin,
upon their auti-oonso oIidation prejudices AM
q coalition Of few city delegates with thos
from tho country clamorous for the selection
of one Of their number for President Of tn
Board. This 50 called triumph" Of the lie
comptonites, was nothing more nor less thai
q sacrifice Of the city to the country.
The vote in Sacramento at the primar,
election was decisive of the sentiments of tn
people upon the Lecompton question Th
struggle in the Convention was not mad
upon this issue. The Lecomptonites care
fully avoided 1t. and were content with beat
ing Mr.. Dyer by dropping Kgusas and ma
king bugbear Of "Con solidation." Locs
prejudices were paramount to the main quei
tisn, and by pandering to them, the "Fed / or
alists" succeeded in their plans. They kno,
better than to make tight upon the Kansa
issue. alone. They must be mounted on 10
cal hobby horses before they dre to tax
