A Row IN THE REPUBLICAN CAMp-SE-
cEssIoN.-The Republicans of Sacramento
city and county met in Convention on Wed
nesday, to select delegates to their State
To the astonishment of tie Stanford men,
it was soon demonstrated that their favori;e
was in a minority. A resolution was offered
that the delegates to the State Convention
be instructed to vote for Stanford for Gov
ernor, but an opponent offered a substitute
instructing the delegation to vote for Con-
gresham Low. This was adopted by vote
of 53 ayes to 81 noes-l6 majority. This
was a bombshell-but the Convention held
together until strong set Of war resolutions
were passed, and the evening came on, when
the Stanford men from the 3rd and 4th
Wards seceshed.' They were subsequently
followed by several members from the coun
try. There was much i'll feeling displayed
and they even charged each other with being
''copperheads" and "secessonists." The low.
atty of one of the delegates was considered
very questionable from the fact that he had
horse named "Besuregard."
The Withdrawing delegates asserted that
they had been fouIly dealt with, but in what
respect the proceedings do not show. They
subsequently held meeting at one of the
Engine houses, and decided to make writ
ten statement to the public.
The trouble seems to have been that the
Stanford men bound themselves unsupported
" in the minority, and instead of Welding
gracefully to the majority, and working for
the harmony and strength of their party,
they pursued the rather unpopular plan of
"secedng."
1t is none of our funeral, but it is evident
that this action of his friends, will seriously
damage, if it does not ruin Stanford's pros
poets for re nomination. If he approved
the course of the bolters he has made a
mistake that will serousl damage, if it
does not entirely ruin his chances for re.
nomination. a man must be wonderfully
popular to succ' ed, after thus defying and
splitting upon the rules of his party orgsni
zaion. And far stronger men than Leland
Stanford have failed in that system Of taci
tics.
p. Sat later stage of the proceedings,
a portion Of the seceeders returned to the
Convention, and i, seems they were psctied
by receiving several nominations on the
County ticket. But the Convention holds to
its instruction to delegates to vote against
Stanford
| The Sac Union, with dissatisfaction that
1t does not attempt TO conceal, says the ticket
is mainly one (which good Union men ought
not to be forced to vote for"

The Mountains Speaking.

The movement initiated AT Yankee Jm's
to unite the Democracy of Placer, has been
responded to by the Democracy of Upper
Horse Shoe Bar, who met on last Saturday
evening, formed a Club, and passed resolu
tons which we publish to-day. They have
the right tone, and are worthy of men who
appreciate the mumentous issues of the day.
Nearly all the Democrats of the Bar and
vicinity have enrolled as members of the
Club, and members who have not heretofore
been operating with the Democracy, are
preparing to give helping hand.
These Clubs are not started under the
auspices Of any party organizations. They
are not the work of County Central Commit
tees, or the creations Of political managers.
The necessities of the times are demanding
them and the people, Indifferent to party
organizations, Committees, or citizens, are
taking upon themselves the work of building
party that shall stand as buIwark against
the encroschments of the Republican party,
that neither respect Constitutions nor the
natural rights Of the citizen.
From these clubs, now springing into exl
istence all over the State, will come the or
ganization that will bind together mighty
Democratic host, whose purpose will be to
restore respect for law, and return to
the ancient landmarks which honor and
glory in our whole country.
The Horse Shoe Bar Club, in order to
have a common ralIyng point for the Dem,
ocracy OF Placer, and to provide for the
contingencies of the coming Campaign, have
recommended the holding of a County
Convention on the 9th of July, for the pur-
pose of selecting delegates to the State
Convention, and the nomination of county
ticket. This seems practical and it is for
the Clubs now and shortly to be organized,
to take such action upon the recommenda-
ton rs will insure, what all true Democrats
in Placer desire, united front to the Aboi
ltion destructives. 1t is true a Democratic
County Convention has been called under
the auspices of the Cotton State Committee,
but as there will he no State Convention
held under that call it would seem the betl
ter policy for the proposed County Conven
ton, if it unites, to aquiesce in the call
the clubs may agree upon. We merely
suggest this, believeng that those who en-
dorse the Butte State call will not be willing
to leaving stumbling blocks in the way of
Democratic unity.
