CALAVERAS CHRONICLE.
MOkELUMNE HILL:
SATURDAY, ::::: MARCH 80. 1867
Register.

Are the Union men of this county aware
of the fact that unless their names are en-
rolled in the Great Register, thirty days pre-
vious to the election they will not be allowed
a voice in choosing those who shall admin
lister our State, County and Township affairs !.
If they are, they certainly are exhibiting
most lamentable apathy and indifference in
regard to the matter. While the Registry
law which was passed last Winter will pre-
vent illegal voting. and thus materially
reduce the strength of the Democracy, unless
fciently awake to the importance of placing
themselves in position to exercise the elec-
tive franchise to see that their names are
placed on the poll-list, the election returns
will show that the law has operated against
instead of for us. 1t is fully time that some
STIR was made. and thorough organization
of the party effected in this county. Union
men must not rest their entire chances for
success on the simple fact that they carried
the county by a considerable majority two
years since. Our opponents are active, de-
signing and unscrupulous, better organized,
more thoroughly dIscip pi:ned than we are md
determined on making bitter fight for the
supremacy next Fall. They have not tasted
'pap" for considerable length of time, and
are becoming voracious, and will leave no
means in their power untried to obtain pos
session of the offices at the approaching
election. Union men can make up their
minds that they will not be allowed to walk
over the track, and the sooner they put them
selves into training for the race the better.
The first great desiderGtuu to be attained, is,
a complete registration, and the necessary
measures to accomplish it should be imme-
diately adopted. delays are dangerous, p"
especially in political affairs. Perhaps as
good plan as any to insure a thorough can
vass, would be for the County Central Com
mittee to meet and appoint committee for
each precinct, whose duty it would be to
see that every Union man within their juris-
diction was enrolled. By this method no
difficulty will be experienced in having every
name entered on the poll-list, and enable
the party to exhibit its full strength at the
ballot-box. Men who reside in out-of-the-
way places. where they are not reached by
the excitement incident to political cam
paigns, naturally become Indifferent to such
matters, and unless they are approached on
enough to even procure tie registration OF
their names. Some action in this respect is
imperative, and we hope to see those who
aspire to be leaders in the party bestir them
selves.

LIEUTENANT -GovERNoR.-Of the various
candidates who have been mentioned in con-
nection with the Lieutenant t-Governorship.
we are of the opinion that Adjutant General
Evans, of Tuolumne, will be successful. He
is in every particular eminently fitted for
the position, and as presiding officer has
no superior in the State. His administrative
ability being universally acknowledged, we
would have no apprehension in regard to his
satisfactory management of the State Prison.
and as to the matter of his availability. there
can be no question. when we take into con-
sideration the fact that there are some twelve
thousand California Volunteers. citizens
now in the State, who are justly entitled to
representation on the State ticket. bv at
least one candidate, and that he is empbati-
cally their first choice. General Evans has
held several positions of trust and honor. in
all of which he has acquitted himself with
credit and acquired the respect and conf
dence of the people. While we are not dis
posed to speak disparagingly of the claims
of other candidates for the position. still we
think that General Evans, if elected, would
be the fright man in the right place." and
that he should receive the hearty support of
every Union man in the State.

COUNTY CoNvENTIoN.-The next County
Convention should be held at Mokelumne
Hill. We are justly entitled to it. Since
the year 1858, no political assemblage has
been gathered together in our midst, and we
should think it was about time that we were
favored in that respect. Every other town in
the county has had chance to make few
dollars, in an honest way, two or three times
IN the course of that period, and our citizens
are of the opinion that it is their turn to get
portion of the "chicken pie this year.
Ihe last Convention was held at Copperopo-
us and upon its adjournment it was agreed
to leave the question whether the next one
should be called at Murphys or Mokelumne
Hill, to the Central Committee Murnbvs
is very fine town, and all that sort of tbino
and good place to hold Convention. but
still we think that justice demands that the
next one should be held in Mokelumne Hill

The daily papers are teeming with the
details of the Clark-Reese breach of promise
suit. The woman sets her figures altogether
too high. A 100000 is more money than
promise of marriage is worth, under any

WASHINGTON, July 5.--The evidence az
the Surratt trial was not very important.

many congressman TO the court room, and
the appearance Of little Tad. Lincoln on

TO obtain an audience of his father at City
Point.
Colonel wetmore, Ohio Military Agent,

The proceedings Of both Houses of Con-
gress to-day were Of character TO confirm
the opinion that the session will not ex-
tend beyond the twentieth and will be con-
lined mostly to reconstruction matters.
The long debate of the Senate resulted In
the passage by 30 TO 9, Messrs. Chandler,
Ross, Sumner. Thayer. Upton and Wade
being In the negative, of the caucus resOlu-
tion declaring that nothing but recon-
struction matters shall be considered.
In what spirit this will be done may be
inferred from the fact that n resolution In

House by ITO to Is, and Mr.. Summers rcsO-
luton for Sickles, Pope aud Schoheld. by
the same relative majority.
