A CENTER shor.-The Truckee Tribune, Of
the 18th, has this center shot at Mcfarland,
Radical candidate for District Judge in tina,
district.
Can any man aspiring for judicial posi-,
ton use such language as the following, deal
justly with both political parties while occu.
plying the position of a Judge2
1T were better that our daughters ve,a
given over 10 prostitution, our sons 70 the
gamblers, and our wives 10 the embrace of tbs
negro, and ourselves 10 the devil, than that tbs
destinies of this land be committed 10 the
care and keeping of the Democratic party.
If that speech don't cook Mack's goose for
him in that Judicial district then they deserve
to have gentleman OF color to preside over
them.

tenth Amendment Is desperately contested
and in doubt? You have too long slumbered
in FOOLS paradise in spite of our repeated
warnings, assuming without reason that the
MITIGATION was virtually conceded, II is not
conceded-it will not be conceded-it is to
be fought to the bitter end. The gable
about leaving the matter TO State action de-
ceiyes no single soul. You know that they OPP
pose this Amendment because il strikes a
death-blow at Government by caste, and for no
other reason on earth. Rally, then, Republic
cansl in generous ardent devotion to right,
loyalty, and universal freedom!'
The Tribune had not yet seen tho Enter
prise Of the l4th, else it would not have given
way to the above paroxysm of alarm and
anxiety for the fate of the Fifteenth Amend,
meat, not only in New York but in the whole
Union. MIR. Greeley not being so familiar
with the legal mode of transacting official
business between the States and the Federal
Government as Mr.. Goodman of the Enter
prise, naturally fell into the trap set for him
by the World; but not SO with Mr.. Goodman;
for he is not to be caught with Democratic
chaf in regard to Nevada, and knowing that
his oracular word is all that is wanted to
convince the faithful, he disdains to give pal.
try reasons in support of his dogmatic asser-
tons. Before the ides of Sept, 1870, how
ever, he will find that the people of Nevada
demand something more to convince them
than his bald assertion upon grave questions
of fundamental rights.

Whel..ale Hou,e, Wanted.

Standing, NJ NC do. in the very gate Of tho
citadel, on the ground where the battle mus
be fought out which is to determine whether
the Great Basin. II may not be out Of place To
tender word of advice to the parties con-
tending at our doors for supremacy. The side
that would win can only do so by establishing
branch houses of their business, at this point,
where goods can be had at wholesale prices,
and in quantities equal to the demand. II
San francisco expects the merchants Of White
Pine and Cope district to send their orders
down to the Bay for goods, when the same
goods can be had here from wholesale houses
which are branches OF Chicago houses, they
will find in a very short time that they have
reckoned without their host. Neither can Chi
cago ever hope to storm and capture the in
trenched lines of California, which now con-
trolls the trade, il they wait for the trade TO
come to them. 1t is no easy task TO break mp
and divert old anil well established lines Of
trade. and unless some important advantage
is TO be gained, such attempts are rarely sue
cessful. 1t is not, then, for our people to go
to Chicago, but for Chicago to come to us, if
they would secure any considerable amount Of
the trade of this Basin For Chicago firms
to establish large branch houses at this place.
would obyiate the necessity, which now stares
them in the face, of assaulting and breaking
the established lines of trade between our
people and San Francisco. They would have
simply to seize and divert the current of
trade to the East, instead of to the West
from this place, as it would make no differ
ence with the White Pine or Cope merchant
when buying in Elko, whether the goods came
from Chicago or San Francisco, and the only
question which would concern him would be
as to where he could get the best terms.
There is no good reason why retail merchants
in this section of the country should have to
go either to San Francisco or Chicago for their
goods, as they could be furnished here for less
than it would cost individuals to ship them in
small quantities when needed. There are
some classes Of goods which could be had at
lower rates in Chicago than in San Francisco,
and Cice uerSd. In order TO take advantage of
this condition Of facts, it would be necessary
for interior merchants to buy in both markets,
for If they should only buy in one they would
have to pay more for some articles than they
ought to pay. This difficulty ~ouii % oSvi-
ated, however, by buying in q market where
goods from both ways were furnished at the
most reasonable rates. What VIC want, then,
is to have wholesale houses established hero
which will sell at reasonable rates, and there
would no longer be a necessity to go to the
Rast or to the West for goods.

COUNCIL OF WAR.--THE LAST EFPoRr AT
CoMPRoAIsE.-From the Utah Reporter of
the 18th, We learn that grand council Of
railroad magnates is now in session ut Uintah,
consisting of the five eminent citizens
lately appointed by the President as Railroad
Commissioners, and Messrs. Ames, Hammond,
Reed and other officers of the Union Pacific
road, and Messrs. Huntington, Croker,
Towne and others of the Central Pacific Com
pany. 1t is understood that this is to be the
last and final effort that will be made to COM
promise the outstanding differences existing
between the two companies, concerning the
road between Promontory and Ogden; and
should this attempt fail, the Central Pacific
Company will build its own road between tho
points named, and carry its own passengers
to that point while the Union Pacific Compa-
ny will continue to carry as at present to
Promontory. If this should happen it will be
the beginning of contest which will end in
tho completion Of two roads from the Mis-
souri, river to San Francisco. The running
Of two parallel roads for distance of fifty
miles, with the endless contentious and bad
feeling which it will breed between the two
companies can but result in n continuation Of
both roads across the interior country. The
Central Pacific Company would probably
bend to the southwark from Salt Lake, and
go directly through to st. Louis; thus obtain
ing much more desirable route in the Win
ter season than the one at present used; while
the Union Pacific Company would find q bet
ter pass over the Sierras than the one at pres
ent used by the Central Pacific Company.

The CONTINENTAL RAILROAD GUIDE.-We
have received from the publishers, George A.
Crofutt d. Co., of Chicago, tIls.), n copy of
their Continental Railroad Guide which con-
tains a vast amount Of useful information
concerning the points on the Central Pacific
Railroad from Omaha to Sacramento and the
country adjacent to the route through which
it passes from the Missouri river to tide-water
on the Pacific. This work is generally accu-
rate i'll the information given concerning
places along the immediate line of the road;
but where points some distance away from the
road are treated Of. the same degree of accu-
racy is not observable in the work. This,
however, is a matter of bat little concern to
the great travelling community, each and all
of whom should mail to the publisher at Chi.
cago, (nls.) a fifty cent stamp and obtain n
copy.
