Gov. HAIoHr.-Sotvithstan standing il has been
currently reported tina: Governor Haisht had
declined to be candidate at the coming cleo
ton in California for Governor, it now ap-
pears that he has consented to have his name
come before the people for reelection. Al
though he desired to release himself from the
duties Of public life. and devote his attention
20 private affairs, he says the principles the
Democracy has contended for he is not will
ling TO surrender for the benefit of a favored
few, that will load, with grievous burdens, a
people already taxed to the limit of endurance
and which seeks to appropriate the property
and earnings of the whole taxpayers 20 enrich
private corporations; that such a system is
neither Democratic, just nor salutary. He
says he acts upon the maxim that while the
Government was made for the people, the less
there is of it, after affording that security
which is its primary object, the better it is for
them Hence his opposition TO special legis-
uon-to protective tariffs-to prohigate giants
Of the public domain TO corporations regard
less Of the rights Of settlers-to military in
reference with elections, and to all the abuses
practlced heretofore. These principles will
be at issue in 1872. That contest will be be-
tween the corporations on the one side and
the people on the other, and he desires to see
the Governments, State and Federal. admins
tered for the benefit Of the whole people, and
no; for the benefit Of privileged few. With
the views he entertains, If the convention
thinks proper TO present his name for re-elec-
ton, he will consent TO again be their can
dIdAte for Governor

diary. They are now within about six miles
Of the line and OILY thirty miles by rail from
the county.seat of Elko, while they ARE about
40 miles 10y nail and stage from Austin. their
present county-seat. 1t is understood, how
ever. that they would much prefer to become

ia, to be carved ont OF the northern part Of
Lander and the eastern portion of Humboldt
should that movement succeed, which is at
the present writing somewhat doubtful The
Lander delegation in the Legislature is M in
arms against the contemplated emasculation
of their territory, which would rob their
county of all revenues from the railroad. and
will fight it to the bitter end If Palisade aud
the people along the railroad canno; have the
new county, 1t would be but simple act of
justice To those on our immediate border to
have them annexed to Flko county.

SwTSpLTSG The JACK TAEs.-James +. Stew
art, Superintendent of the Sailors Home. -
in San Francisco, on the 18th Instant was
among the missing, and il is said that he has
absconded, taking with him a lady. not his
wife, and about $50, 900, belonging principally
to the sailors who made that their home while
in San Francisco. The Sailors Home" was
originated for the purpose of providing COM
Portable home for sailors, that they might es-
cape the many snlres and devices Of land
sharks, who make II u business to rob them of
their hard-earned wages. 1t was to be an in
stitution where they could be guarded against
temptations TO dissipation, and where their
money and valuables would be kept in safety
for them. II appears that there had been
placed on deposit with Stewar; by the sailors
some $4,000. and he has thus swindled
them out of the whole of II, and left for parts
unknown. he also Is supposed 10 have taken
some 5000 owing to merchants in that CITY
II Is we'll known that the intentions of the
parties who originated the institution were
purely benevolent, and it is a burning shame
that men can not be found TO carry out the
good designs of hose who would give aid to "a
class of men who are generally generous and
open hearted, but who are liable to be imposed
upon by the Vaccinations OF unprincipled
schemers. Probably we may vet hear of
Stewart and his companion taking up a resi-
eence IN the vicinity OF the retreat of Mooney,
III Europe, where the parties can talk over
the disturbances in the money market Of san
Francisco at their leisure.
Since writing the above, Stewart has been
arrested at Reno and taken 10 Slu FraLcisco
and Is now lodged IN Jail Oh charge Of grand
larceny.
