s.DemOcracy MoYing.r

Under the above startling caption the San
Francisco Globe Of Wednesday says of itself:
"Our edition yesterday was exhausted at
an early hour. Alameda county sent an or
der for 800 copies, Mariposa sends for 100,
Sacramento for 200, San Francisco ordered
500, and to-day we expect to increase it 20OO
more"
Now if that is a fact. and we have no par
ticular reason for thinking that the Globe
would lie 'about little thing like that,
we don't wonder that the Democracy ar,
moving. We don't believe there is gooC
Democrat in the State that wouldn't move
out Of county where even dozen Globes
were circulated. If the Democracy of Cali
fornia thought that the Globes teaching
were likely to be accepted as gospel" they
would pull up stakes and move "to the other
side O. Jordan"

under the present Government, and in fact any, II
Sonora is obtained, it must be some time it

its andholders, with confirmation of all possessory
titles.
We hear of several mining companies on their way
into the Territory. Those who come t6eiE supplied
