WM. A. NUNNALLT.-It will he seen by the
proceedings elsewhere, that the Senatorial Con.
yenton assembled at the Tower House last Sat
urday nominated VIM. A. Nunnally, of Lewiston,
as candidate for Senator Of the District composed
of Shasta and Trinity.
Mr.. Nunnally is a conservative gentleman. He
Iy no means goes so far as those who are termed
secessionsts, but deprecates the war because oi
its consequences to all sections. He further de-
nies the right of any State to secede from the
Union.
For many years Mr.. Nunnally was resident
of Shasta county, where he has many warm
friends. A man of steadfast purpose. warm i'm
pulses and generous, be cannot but make fric nds
wherever he goes.
We differ entirely with the party which has
conferred their nomination on Mr. Nunnally, but
will do him the justice to say that if elected, the
26lh Senatorial District will have no cause 10
regret their selection, being confident that he
will commit no act without mature thought and
desire 10 faithfully represent the people.
