November 2, Massachusetts State Off.
GERS and Legislature.
November 2, Minnesota State officers
and Legislature.
Novem Der 2, Wisconsin State officers
and Legislature.
In the above list Mississippi and
Texas are not Included. as the Presi-
dent has not yet fixed the time for their
elections under the authority conferred
upon him by the reconstruction law.
He has indicated, however, that the
elections will be called for the latter
part of August or the beginning of
September next.
THIS is Mr.. SeWard's first visit to the
"farthesL" West, with whose history he
has been so Intimately associated du-
ring his long political career. He was
the foremost champion twenty years
ago, in the great struggle which secured
California for freedom, and guaranteed
her against slavery, and the great
speech which he delivered in the Sen
ate on "California and Freedom" will
never be forgotten by anybody who
heard it, or who has read 1t. His labors
at that time not only secured California
for freedom, but the whole of the vast
territory west of the Rocky Mountains.
He has previously visited Kansas,
whose battles he also fought and won
during the crisis of her existence. What
wonderful retrospect will be that OF
the veteran statesman as he passes
through regions which have now
grown to great States, but whose for
tunes he shaped in their infancy. When
he stands on the ice-bound shores of
Alaska, he will probably only have one
regret-that his political career was cut
short before he had time to add British
Columbia to the territories of the Union,
and extend our dominion from the Arc
tic Ocean to the Bay Of Panama.

saw him leave the hotel for the
steamer and afterwards go on board,

with the general announcement for
some weeks of his intended depart

The Mechanics Fair is progressing

probably of some advantage to the

Owyhee tidal wave. [volume] (Silver City, Owyhee County, Idaho Territory [Idaho]) 1869-1870, 1869-10-28

Tue papers state that Wells, Far
go & Co. have compromised with
the railroad companies and are to
retain their business privileges West
OF Salt Lake, and that the United
States Express will connect with
them eastward. No mention is made
as TO what becomes Of the Pacific or
Continental Expresses, which a
month ago we were told were to
swallow up all other expresses and
be the peculiar pets and wards of
the G. L. and U. p. Railroad. W,
+. & Co., it is stated, on receiving
notice that their privileges on the
road were to cease on given day,
promptly accepted the challenge and
put by a million and half dollars
to be expended in the endoavor to
hold their own in the contest. This
fact becoming known to their rivals
set them to thinking and brought
them to time. Wells, Fargo may
be and in fact is a monopoly on this
coast as an express company, but
the question is, are the people not
better OF with such monopoly,
when experience has shown that il
is fair and reliable one, than they
are likely to be under a more pow
erful one backed up by the Pacific
Railroad.

HonAcE GREELEY, in accepting the
nomination for Controller Of New
York, position which the whole
country understands is far beneath
the man, tells the people that he
does not want the office, and never
sought il, yet he accepts the Office
on the ground that political life has
its duties as well as its opportunities
and honors, and that he does not
feel at liberty to decline. He trusts
that some friend may be able to say
with truth at his grave that his po-
litical friends were never asked by
him for any favor, and never re-
quired of him any honorable service
that he did not cheerfully render.
He tells the party that it has I
mighty work yet TO perform, the en-
reimbursement of the sons Of thos,
who fell fighting for freedom an'
country, and that II bis name viii
add strength to the ticket they ar
welcome to it.

A DISPATCH dated Louisville, KY,
Oct. 18th, gives an alarming state OF
affairs as existing in Taylorville,
Warwick County, Indiana The peo-
pie appear there, as well as else
where in the West and South, to
have forgotten their obligations as
law-abiding citizens to preserve the
dignity of citizenship, and instead
Of organizing lawless bands to pun
ish criminals by the commission Of
more heinous crimes, even murder
itself to sustain the powers that be
in holding, trying and convicting
the guilty.
Two men were shot and killed in
a broil at Taylorville, when instead
of giving the accused an opportuni-
ty in court 10 show any defense
or extenuating circumstances that
may have entered into the case, a
company styling themselves regulat-
ors rose up, drove these parties from
the country aud warned others to
leave. One man, unheeding the
warning, was found dead in the
woods, etc.
What hope the people can have
for security, either in person or
property, while the law is being
ovcrridden and anarchy is the rule
is more than the experience of the
past throws any light upon.
