of john Persira takes place on next Sunday
and Monday, May 18th and 10Th, at his gar
dens in Jamestowr when he will be pleased
to see his friends and accfuaintances. john
is the right person, to manage picnic as he
always provides everything necessary to con-
duce to the comfort and pleasure of those who
attend. Strawberries, lee cream, cool drinks,
a fine brass band and string band for dan
cling, swings and everything connected with
picnics will be furnished, and we advise every
person who desires day or two of real en-
joyment to visit his grounds on Sunday and
Monday.

Insane Asylum.

The appointment by Governor Haight of
Stockton, who are known to be favorable to
the retention of the present incumbent as SUI
perintendent, is calculated to disgust the ma
jority of the Democrats in San Joaquin Coun-
ty, more particularly as he was informed of
their preferences before he made the appoint
ments. 1t is deplorable state of affairs for
the Democratic party in this State, that it
has not physician in it's ranks competent
and capable of conducting the affairs, and
prescribing for the inmates cf the Insane Asy-
lum, but must submit to the appointment of
a Republican, with a reputation as an efficient
wire-puller at election time.
Perhaps the Governor With his Executive
ana Judicial abilities, combines the quelifca-
tions of physician, and considers himself
the best judge as to the talent necessary to
fill the position of resident Physician. We
would like to know what the Democracy, and
the people generally, have done to incur ibe
displeasure of the Governor, as he seems to
act as though he did rot care much whether
they are suited or not. To the victors belong
the spoils was the motto Of the Republican
party whilo in power in this State, and we
could cite instances where the appointment of
Notaries was withheld by that party on pure
ly political grounds, when the Office would
not bring fifty dollars in year. Yet it is
Democratic Governor who must forsooth. ap-
point a Republican to one of the most impor-
tant Offices in the State, and that in county
where the Democracy after struggle of ma
NJ years, has just gained The ascendency.
Does any person suppose for one moment,
that had Democrat been at the head of af-
fairs at the Asylum in December last, that
he would have remained there until this time
with Republican Legislature. Why be
would have been legislated out of Office so quick
that II would have made his head snap, and
the question of competency would never have
arisen, but it would have been the pure. na-
ked and unadulterated question, is he Dem
oerats II this question was answered in the
affirmative, il would have been sufficient to
Gus. him, even though he had been at the
head of the Asylum for thirty years and was
possessed of the best talent in the State. We
sympathize with the Democracy of San Jca-
ouiu, for we know how they have lahored for
the supremacy in that County, and believe
they have good ground to complain Of the ac-
ton of the Governor in the matter of this ap-
pointment.

COOP TEMPLARs' PICNIc-The Picnic held
den, Sonora, under the auspices of Bald
Mountain Lodge, l. O. G. T., was complete
success in every particular. With the excep-
ton of the excessive heat, everything seemed
to contribute to make the Picnic one of the
most pleasant that has ever been held in this
vicinity. They were quite fortunate in the
selection of their grounds. Captain Tur-
ner's Garden is certainly the most desirable
place for a Picnic that we have seen in Tuo-
umne County. The grass was SO fresh, soft
and green, that it resembled carpet Of vel
vet. And although the number in attend
ance was very large, there was an ample
shade-tree for almost every individual pres
ent. A fine hall having been prepared, and
music provided by the committee of arrange
ments, dancing was INDUCED in to much
greater extent than usual. The swings aud
flying horses, were kept in constant motion
frcm morning till late st night. While the
results, and consequence OF Grace-hoop end
Copenhagen delighted The s.lads and lasses, y
although many very old lads. partook copi-
ously of the pleasures of these games. About
two O'Clock, the usual refreshments were
served up upon common table, and those

partake first. The Committee of Arrange
ments, and in fact the members generally
We'd with each other to make the occasion as

Tn. New stage cempaay.

The subscribers TO the New Line Of stages
met in large numbers on Saturday last, and
organized as corporation under the name Of
'.The Peoples Accommodation and Express
Company. The business affairs Of tie COM
pany are to be managed by board of eleven
trustees. and the principal place of BUSINESS
is located at Sonora. The we'll known busi-
ness capacity Of the trustees and their famili-
arity with the business of staging is guar
antee Of success in the enterprise. The stock
is being rapidly paid mp. aud it is anticipat-
ed that tie company viii be able to start their
line Of stages within ten days at farthes..
We have said this is move in the right di-
rection. II is proposed to rnn line of stag
es from Columbia and Sonora to Stockton.
and that the trip shall be made either way
in ten hours, and that the fare shall never
exceed FIVE dollars from Sonora to Stockton
or a proportionate amount thereof from IN
termediate pcints. Speedy and cheap COM
munication is one Of the surest means of de-
veloping the resources of community. This
proposition is too nlain for argument. Our
people at last feel its full force, and are de-
termned not to submit longer to the high
fares and ox-team gai, peculiar to the means
of conveyance afforded them for the last FIVE
years. With the view of securing to them
selves and the travelling public. speedy and
cheap travel, this company has been organ
ized. That it will succeed is morally GER
tain. Almost every business man in the
county not connected in some capacity with
the old line, has subscribed to the new one.
There are but few exceptions, they belong
10 that class to be found in every community
who are bane to every public enterprise,
who would not give two dollars and half to
a Fourth Of July celebration, nor make any
other investment however much it might tend
to the public welfare, unless it would surely
pay them two per cent month. This COM
pany will live without this class of men.
They are but the vampires of a community.
The subscribers are in earnest-they mean
10 have speedy and cheap travel-they are
not looking for dividends. They want to in
luce men to come mere and see our quartz
mines Of inexhaustable wealth. and interest
,apitarin their development. They want a
part of the travel to the Big Trees and Yo-
semitic to pass through our county. To ac-
,omplish this object this company has been
organized. Two CT three hundred of the bu-
'iness men of the county, with other outside
friends engaged in snch an enterprise cannot
fail. Ifthe fare en- the Old Line should be
put down, that is the very end desired. The
travelling public who are subscribers can
well afford to contribute their twenty-five dol
lars for the purpose of securing low fare, and
those not likely to be benefited in this man
ner will be more than repaid by the new life
that will be infused into the community
The officers for the first three months volun-
teer to serve without any compensation other
than actual expenses. We will hereafter
give the names of the subscribers to this, en-
terprise that the community may see who
their real friends are.
The union Democrat., 1870-05-14

1t is to the advantage of every person do
ing business in this County to assist in every
manner possible the new stage company.
The reason of this is obvious. By assisting
this company the fare will be reduced and
thus more inducements will be offered fo-
emigration to this County. We want more
consumers, more farmers to till our lands.
There are thousands of acres of land in this
County unoceupied capable of raising grain
or fruit, and by inviting settlers and having
cur lands all cultivated, our taxes are dimin-
ished and our County becomes more PROSPER
Gus. Hence we say lei every person in the
community assist the New Stage Company.
those who feel that they cannot afford to sub
scribe for any of the stock. let them assist it
with good words and their patronage, for this
is the Peoples line and the people should en-
courage it.
The union Democrat., 1870-05-14

We are pleased again to chronicle the re-
suit of seven days crushing of quartz at the
Confidence Mine amounting to 1881 ounces
or about fourteen thousand dollars, an in
crease of six thousand dollars on the run of
last week. This mine compares fa2orably
with any mine in the State. and if the rock
continues to improve as it has during the last
week it will surpass tie best. The main
shaft is now being deepened by a set of ex-
ing order. We hope it may continue to
yield as beautifully and prove to the world
that the mines of Tuolumne are not worked
out

San JOAQUIN CoUNrY-Ths county las
received another damper in the form of let
ter from Governor Haight, in which the prop
osition as to the right of the Legislature to
authorize cities or counties, to levy taxes for
the construction of railroads within their lim-
its, he states is unconstitutional. If he is
correct il is a severe blow as they have spent
much time and money in starting the Eisalia
and Stockton road, and the donation voted,
to this road short time since will be Of no
avail. Why he should write that letter, af.
ter approving the bill authorizing the dona-
tion having the power to veto it, we cannot
see unless be desires to arrogate to himself
judicial as well as executive power. Il is
certainly iu bad taste for him to write and
publish it as it is an acknowledgment. that
he approved bills involving millions of dol
lars without giving them the consideration
and investigation their Importance demanded.
However the question will probably be deter
mined by the Courts and it is to be hoped
that his conclusions will not be sustained. as
the great majority of the people of San Joa-
qrin County are in favor of the donation.
Besides, the increase in the value of property
upon portion Of the road being completed.
will swell the taxes so that but a short time
would elapse before the County would be re-
imbarsed for every cent expended. We are
somewhat selfish in the matter as we believe
the construction of that road will be of some
benefit to Tuolumue County, and are opposed
to impediments of any kind being thrown in
the way of its completion.
