TREATMENT OF IMMIGRANTS ON THE
UNION PACIFIC. San Francisco Bull

A worthy and intelligent gentleman
named Ryan, recently arrived from Hi

blame ON the Union Pacific. At Omaha

cars were also so crowded that in many
cases three passengers had to occupy an
ordinary seat. The water tanks were
sometimes allowed to remain half day

warning to passengers who had gone in

AN INJUSTICE TO THE PEoPLE.-John
CARRIER (Democrat) was elected Supreme
Judge Of Nevada two years since. A few
days after the last election CARRIER re-
signed his position as Supreme Judge to
accept a more remunerative position
counsel for the Raymond Il Ely Compa-
ny. Governor Bradley now appoints his

70 years, to fill the vacancy. Had Judge
Garber resigned in time the people might
have elected his successor, instead OF
leaving it to the sagacity of SO inexperi-
enced gentleman as Governor Bradley.
CARRIER having been elected by the peo-
pie for term of years, and accepted the
trust, should not have resigned. 1t was
a contract entered into between CARRIER
and the people and he should have re-
manned true to the trust. However, he
only followed the example Of S. w.
Sanderson, who being elected one of the
Judles of the California Supreme Court,
resigned to become the special attorney
OF the Central Pacific Railroad. Conven-
tons hereafter should exact specific
pledges from candidates for judicial po-
sitiOn that they won't sell out-for a
higher salary.-[S. F. Chronicle.
The Chronicle is certainly straining a
point to find fault with Judge CARRIER s
course. We have no means of knowing
nor has the Chron,cle-that Judge
CARRIER contemplated resigning a suffi-
Gent time before the election to enable
parties to place candidates in the field
and the people to elect Supreme Judge
in the usual way. Certainly Judge
violates no trust by resisning his posi-
ton, unless previous to his election he
obligates himself not to avail himself of
tho privilege Of resigning. The Chroni-
Gle is continually harping about the
tenacity with which some men cling to
Office, and now because gentleman re-
signs his Office the same paper growls
