POLITICAL.

FROM the reports that reach us through our
exchanges from every part of the State the
prospect of success for the nominees of the late
Republican Convention is most encouraging /;
the in every section evince the utmost con-
fidence in the integrity and capacity of our can
didates, with this sentiment, backed by deter
mination that the State shall no longer groan
under Democratic msrule, nothing will prevent
complete triumph of our entire ticket But
''eternal vigilance is the price of liberty" so
our success will be the result of a thorough or
ganization and untring vigilance until the vic
tory is won, and in view of this fact we call
upon all who opposed to the reelection of
! the present vacilating Governor of the State to
! organize--form clubs. wherever even few voters
are to be found let every act as though
the success of the ticket depended upon his n-
dividual exertons and vote and when the battle
shall close on the day of election the star of our
party will be found in the ascendant.-Amador
| Ledger.
THE Democratic papers are terribly furried
over the ant-Chinese plank in the Republican
platform. Their ideas of opposition to Chinese
immig igration are intimately associated with brick
bats and bludgeons, and they doubt The sincerity
of any other than brutal demonstrations of hos
! tility. The Republican party is in earnest and
has always redeemed its pledges, but the Demo-
cratic party, while sustaining violence and brute
|
has refused to take legal and legislative steps to
retard their influx, yet is always appealing to
/ brutal passions and ignorant prcjudices, merely
to catch votes. The hypocrisy Of the Democracy
on the Chinese question was pretty well exposed
by the of the last Legislature. Marys-

| DRURY MELoNE, the Republican candidate for
Secretary of State, has been eighteen years in
California born in Kentucky resided several
years in Missouri. Notwithstanding his rea-
tvcs and friends were of Southern blood and
/ sympathized with its cause, he has always been
a consistent Republican has resided in Santa
| Clara, Sacramento. Yolo and San Francisco
counties; and the best proof of his social stand
| ing is that the delegations of those counties
where he has resided were nearly unanimous for
him in Convention. He is popular, widely
known, and his character for integrity, capacity
and probity are unquestioned.-Ne Letter.
THE nomination of 'Coonel Lewis, Esq :"
subsidy man, for the purpose of catching the
subsidy vote, is weak device that will not win.
For every vote that he procures from this class
he will have two against him account of his
Benicia and Red Bluff Railroad bill. His liber-
| ality in placing the taxable property of Colusa
and Tehama counties in the hands of the Chief
Engineer of the Railroad Company, is not likely
to be relished by property owners, who have
queer notions of managing their owc affairs, and
!
their own Vallejo Recorder.
Hon. JOHN NJ. CoGHLAN.-This gentleman NOM
mated for Congress, on the Republican ticket in
the First District, is one of the rising statesmen
of California. He is thoroughly honest and Cat
pable; shrewd and discriminating is an elo-
queEt speaker, dealing in straightforward facts
and presenting them in such n way that the
conclusion is irresistible in their force clearmess
and logic. That Mr.. Coghan will carry his Dis
trict there is not the shadow of doubl, and
California will be well and conscen.iously rep
resented, in his place in Congress.-S. +. Spirit

Down HAIGHT.-The Sacramento Record
says that deputation of the Amador Miners
League has gone to San Francisco to confer with
the other labor organizations with the view to
the selection Of another candidate for Govern
or Failing in that as they undoubtedly will
the league will support Booth having determin.
ed that they will on no account vote for Hnight.
This decision is one of the results of the late
disturbance at Sutter Creek and the course taken
by the Governor in relation thereto. Oakland

DEMocRAT was called upon to preside at the
Pearce meeting on Saturday evening. He said
that he proposed to vote for Booth, and for 9TH
er members on the Republican ticket, and if
they would accept of him under such conditions
he would be "Chief' on the occasion He
didn't preside VaHyo Chronicle.
THE Republican party are everywhere harmo-
nious, singular as it may seem. They are all
intent upon securing the election of the State
ticket, and present appearances indicate the
strong probability of such results r.. Chron-

Newton BooTH is the most popular candidate
ever nominated for Governor in California His
opponents, failing to find anything vulnerable in
his record, are drawing their Imagination for
facts.-S. Il. Chronicle.
