CANDIDATES. FOR THEJUDGSHIP
OF THE SECOND JUDICIAL
DISTRICT.

Tho Republicans and Democrats OF
the Second Judicial District have each
\ candidate for the position of Judge
of the Second Judicial District, which
embraces the Counties of Washoe,
Ormsby and Douglas. 1t is well, at
this time. to compare the records of
the two contestants.
The Republican nominee, Hon. C..
y. Harris is a gentleman of great puri-
ty Of private character, AMI, although
quite young man--under thirty, or
no: much older-hc has had. besides
an excellent education i'm the law, four
years of experience upon the bench.
during which time he has gained a
reputation for fairness and honest deal
ing which places his character for in
teXrity above suspicious; and his decis-
ions have been marked by great care
fulncss Of study and an earnest obedi-
ence to the governing principles of law
and equity.
inee, is Il gentleman several years the
senior of Mr.. Harris, well known here
and in California as a criminal lawyer
of considerable ability, Il vehement
;alker and an uncOmprOmising Demo-
crat. He has never, that we are aware
Of, held a judicial oflice-never, GER
tainly in this State; and we can only
conjecture as to his fitness for the re-
sponsible and dignitied position TO
which he aspires.
So much for the men. Now 4 few
words as to their pol.t cal record:
Early in the breaking out of the war
Of the rebellion, Charles \. Harris en-
tered Minnesota regiment and with
i participated in the first battle of Bull
Bun. 1t was his misfortune, in that
disastrous battle, to be so severely
wounded as to be Frustrated upon the
field of battle, where, during three
days and nights he lay, utterly unat-
tended, until he was picked up, more
dead than alive, 10y the rebels. made 4
prisoner and conveyed to Richmond,
where, he lay, for months. When
his wound was literally alive
with maggots! One of his arms has
been measurably useless ever since
receiving that terrible wound and be-
ing subjected to that fearfIlly pro
tracted exposure and neglect.
As in contrast 20 this record Of Il
defender of the old flag, it is |
hardly necessary here to adver; to the |
record, during the rebellion. of the
then notorious and loud-mou;hed
rebel, Hal. Clayton. 1t is sufficient to |
say that while Harris was still suffer-
ing from the effects of rebel bullets,
Clayton was being punished for his
utterances by an imprison-
ment in Fort Churchill.
Fellow citizens, compare the poiiti-
al records of these two men and then
return your verdict. We have too
much faith in the loyalty and in;egri-
y of the Republicans of this Distric;
o believe for 4 moment that there is
my danger of the election here of a
Judge.

THE DEMOCRATIC COUNTY CONvEN-
rIOx meets here to-day, Innumerable
are the rumors which fill the air with
reference to the negotiations that have
been going on between the valiant I'M
washed and certain disappointed Re-
publicans-it seeming to have been a
fOregone conclusion between sJIndry
''outs" that the Syren of copperhead-
ism would WOO them to her sweet EN-
brace and thus shelter them from the
cold which fell upon them at the Re-
publican primaries. At leas: thus
saws Madame Rumor with one of her
thousand tongues. With another. the
ancient Jade whispers of proposed
trades between tender-foOteI "ins"
and the painted and perfumed old
Jezabel. But we will venture to guess
that the un;crrified will disappoint
many who look for this compromise
of Democratic virtue by nominating
pretty much of full ticket; for if
they are half as strong as their blowers
and strikers claim their party to be,
they VIII be great assess to divide their
loaf with few belly-aching Repubs.
