THE DEMOCRATIC TERRITORIAL CENTRAL
COMMITTEE.

DIsdUsTEp,-The Sacramento Union is be-
coming thoroughly disguised with the members
of the California Legislature, the majority Of
whom, in great measure, owe their election
to the support and influence OF that popular
and powerful journal. Although the platforms
of both political parties in that State ayowed
open opposition to the further grant of subsi-
dies 10 railroad companies and hostility to tho
growing power Of those grasping monopolies,
the members of the Legislature who were
supported by the Union are now. according to
that paper. talking about the change in pub
lie opinion, damniBg party platforms and vot-
ing in the interests of schemers to make cor
porations stronger and the people weaker" 1t
is turning out just as Democrats predicted.
The pledges of Radicals, made prior to the
election, of incorporating hostility to the
granting of further subsidies, and 10 the grow
ing power Of these overshadowing corporations,
were as "ropes of sand" 1t was but q politi-
cal dodge and a catch-vote policy adopted as a
necessity in order to defeat the Democratic
candidates who were earnest and sincere in
their opposition to policy which has been in
augurated and carried out for seven or eight
years by the very party that thus attempted to
turn political somersault and deceive the peo-
pie into belief Of their sincerity. Nine tenths
of the Radical candidates, including Booth and
Pacheco, at the head of the ticket, had always
before been avowed advocates of railroad SUBJ
sides; and their apparent conversion to the
anti.subsidy side was too sudden to be real or
lasting. Men who had voted and worked for
the appropriation of millions of dollars in
money and millions Of acres of the public lands
to railroad companies: and who, in fact, were
owned, body aud soul, by the railroad magnates,
were supported for Office by the Union on a
party pledge that they had seen the error of
their ways and would endeavor, in the future,
to make some atonement for the past. The
betrayed in the house of its friends. In it's is
sue of February 5th, in an article entitled
Public opinion-What is II" the recacitrant
members are treated to q dish Of exquisite
abuse. 1t charges that it is unblushingly an
nounced by some of the most blatant anti-sub-
sidy men of the last campaign, now cheek-by-
jowl with the railroad lords, that platforms are
made to be broken" In Radical sense such
is undoubtedly the fact; as the history OF our
country during the past ten years establishes
most conclusively that the Republicans or Rad
icals have violated every pledge made to the
people in their platforms, State or National
They act upon the Jesuitical theory that /" the
end justi6es the means" and will promise any
thing, either 10 their platforms or on the stump,
and after obtaining power and place, go back
on every promise or pledge they made.

ATTEMPTED MURDER AND SUIcIDE.-The
Elko Independent of February Sd gives an ac-
count of an attempted assassination of young
lady and the suicide of the would.be murderer.
1t appears that young man named Charles
Billig, who had been ranching in Glover Valley
for several years, became greatly enamored of
Miss Shelton, who also lived there. and for
several months he had been most assiduous in
his attentions, imploring her to become his
wife. but she refused to marry him and he, be-
coming desperate, threatened TO kill her. On
January 3lst. Miss Shelton was out riding in
company with a man named Kane, and on
Billig learning this he jumped on his horse and
followed them. Upon overtaking them he
drew his pistol and fired twice at the young
lady, both balls whistlng close to her head,
and she, becoming terrified. swooned and fell
from her horse. Billig, thinking he had killed
her. then put the pistol to his own head and
blew his brains out. The young lady, fortu-
nately, was not hurt, neither shot fired at her
having taken effect
