The above speaks for itself, and in justice
We would state that M. Kent allowed his
name TO be used with the understanding
that it WAS the wish Of the friends Of the
schools. In the above he says 1T 10 al>

that they would rather see the people elect
poorer men. Love for the schools, indeed !,
They have used every influence TO wiring
religion and politics into the present cleo
ton, which every true friend Of the schools
knows to be pernicious. The assertion that
there is an attempt to change the schools is
simply absurd. The citizens in putting
candidates before the people have avoided
this. The few who make this assertion
know there is no truth in it.
TnE school election takes place to-day,
and it is important for the well>being Of our
schools that every man should vote. It is
also important, for those who like stylish

DO seen that Mr. Joseph Shields, the enter
prising and indciatigable proprietor Of the
Davenport Woolen Mills, has been for some
time engaged in the manufacture Of goods
to meet the wants Of his patrons for the
spring trade. Our citizens point with pride
to this II anuiac'ory-it is . substantial
proo. of the success Of such enterprises in
our midst. Mr. Shields cloths are fully
equal 10 any Of Eastern make, and when
goods of All equal appearance and substance
can be obtained ut home, at prices that are
oven lower than elsewhere, it is folly
worse than foly-it is suicidal for our mer>
chants or people to buy their cloths other
than from our home mills, ard We feel COM
tident that when Mr.. Shields goods and
prices have been examined, there will be
considerably less Of it done than there has
been heretofore.

Oh Friday morning the Sonora stage, after
going a. far as Chilli Gulch. was forced TO re-
turn. beius unable to make the trip on ac-
count of the impossible condition of tire
roads. 1t is reported that a stream of water
four feet in depth was running down Chill
Gulch at that time. The Sacramento stage
did not leave until seven o'clock, kno%1ng
that it was impossible to make the trip. The
Stockton stages sill probably be compelled
to lay over a day or two as the sloughs are
running over full. The West Point stages
started off Friday morning, as usual. but
whether they succeeded in reaching their
destination or not we are unable to state.

discovered that the ground upon which his
house stood contained gold m sufficient guam
titles to pay for washing. As real estate is
not so valuable ss II was once, while gold
dus, commands as good q price as it did in
the palmy days of 40, he concluded the bes,
thing he could do with his lot was to mine il

up sufficiently, and the other day while he
was at work under it, the house suddenly
came down with a crash. Fortunately the
