u. E. GoRDoS-Dear Sir read in the TRINITY JOURNAL
Of last week editorial article copied from the Shasta
Courier of the week previous in reference to the contem
tied change the Senatorial Dstrctsfrom Humboldt
and Trinity to that of Trinity and Shasta and the brief
but correct and humorous comments OF the JOURNAL on
the
The policy Of the change indicated in the measure
introduced by Senator Mr. Ryan not apparent
first view do believe that more close and i'm
partial examination Of the subject could develop stronger
than the personal well as political consd
of the Senator himself Going far possible
10 justify the measure think the change might escape
objection and the alliance appear somewhat natural The
reunion of the mother and daughter after long sep
aration would pleasant and compatible, even done
under the sanction of the LAW,
would remark, however, that there has been doubt
in the minds of many of the oldest inhabitants" 10
the truth and reality of the asserted kindred Trinity
is in fact the daughter of Shasta the birth must have
ranspired after the nuptas to leave room for
dsagreabe innuendOs the character of the aged
rent If the object of the change in the District Is to
restore the young lady who has been coquetng around
on her own hook for years TO the more wise and
administration of the maternal party the verdant as well
impulses of the Senator should be appauded
But it should fully appear to be the object OF Mr.
Ryan to revenge the anticipated future denial OF the fair
and avoid the morfying sting by cutting of all the
attachments which she has formed for her sister Hum
bodt and thereby subject Miss Trinity to the structures
and capce of kind mother Shasta would by no means
the approval appreciation Of young and ambi
tous The prominent and leading interest of Trinity
and Shasta the same-bQth mining counties nexhaus
tibe in their mineral wea th and bearing strong rese
bance in the superior and intellectual characteristics of
their population. The last named fact may have beep
moving in the mind Of the Senator from Humboldt
bill for the annexation. If Del Norte and Humboldt
should be united senatorial district it viii no doubt
facilitate the and probable success OF We senator
for election in the next canvass.
Now word in regard TO the claims of Shasta and Tr1ni
ty the Senator the notice which suggested this
letter learn that Shasta puts forth the claims of Dr.
Ben. Shurtf. have not the honor OF knowing nm per
sonally, but bound to believe him one OF the most
honorable and intelligent gentleman in northern California
from reputation well known and SO credtable to
himself Trinity will doubt in due time ask to have
her claims to the Senatorshp heard and considered and
without the slightest dispaagement to the honorable
prestige of the probable candidates respectfully
urged by that able and leading Democratic paper the
Shasta Coier would mention here the Of Hon. A.
Lawrence whose record and acts have proved him true
faithful efficient to- and in advocacy Of the rights and
interest of the mining community trust that this will
viewed in the light of untimely presump
ton looked upon isolated tribute of personal
tiality, communicated at this time and in this manner
and without the knowledge consent of Mr.. Law
renee himself will nevertheless venture to assert that it
the sentiment expressed in this and other sections of
Trinity by the mining community
All intelligent here In favor of union on just
and patriotic grounds for the sake of the glorious Union
Yours, a favorable bed rock,
