says: Erred. Douglass has never
made any response to his nomination
on the Woodruff ticket. 1t looks as il
he intended TO treat the thing with
silent contempt. If he does, and he

Diplomacy will hereafter be brought
to bear upon breach Of marriage con-
troversies. The defendant to suit in
England said he thought the best way
of settling the affair and getting out of
the difficulty, was to invite the plaintiff
to meet the lady he preferred to her,
and whom he subsequently married,
and for them to talk the matter over.

The California State Fair promises

The California State Fair promises
to eclipse anything of the kind hereto
fore attempted on the Pacific coast.
The pavilion at the Park has been ar
ranged to seal 1000 persons, and the
track placed in thorough condition.
Among stock men, and especially
among horse men, the excitement has
run very high. There is a large list
of horses at the Park. among which
are many of the most famous horses
nov on the turf, and the present sea-
Sol promises to be one of the most
brilliant ever witnessed. The wires of
the Western Union Telegraph Com

and when the most wonderful fast
time shall have been made, which is
expected of Goldsmith Maid aud DC
cident, the news will be Immediately
flashed Il the thousands in the East

The hotels are rapidly filling up, and
nearly every eligible room, both at
public houses and private residences
are engaged for the season.

This is the way they build railroads
in Arkansas. The President of a rail
road company gets on good terms
with the Estate House Ring" and
Hobbies through the Legislature a
grant of $4,000 a mile, with the pre-
viso that the bonds are to he issued at
the completion Of each ten miles of
track. The President borrows enough
iron to lay ten miles, puts it down,
draws his Sl5, 900; takes up the iron,
relays it on the ext ten miles, draws
the second $4,000, and repeats this
process until the whole l20 miles are
built. Then the borrowed iron is re-
turned, the road is left in precisely the
condition it was at first, and the Pres
ident decamps to New York and sells
his bonds.

The Albany Evening Journal gives

The Albany Evening Journal gives
room to the following bitter reference
to Grants civil information:
General Grant is one of the best
read men in the land in the affairs OF
the country. No one of his Cabinet
can tell him anything of public affairs,
or post him as to men or matters. He
posts himself, and keeps ahead of the
times. He reads daily seven news
papers. He has culled from Thirty
other papers the important events and
utterances of The hour, and this digest
he has brought to him each evening.
and so goes to bed probably the best
informed man in the United States"

Wilson showed himself very solicit

that he (Wilson) is not addicted to
small vices, but is a pattern of moral
Ity: Late developments, however,
rather turn the tables, for an habitual
liar is entitled to less sympathy than a

OUR TAT TICKET.

The ticket nominated at Reno or the
18th instant i. the very best that could
have been selected. 1t will command
the respect and confidence of the en-
tire neOple and the earnest support of
the Democrats and Liberal Republi-
cans. The candidates are thoroughly
qualified for the positions they are
named to fill, and each possesses ele-
ments of popularity which cannot fail
to strengthen the general cause.
cHAs. W. KENDALL,
For Congress, is the strongest ma in
Nevada. His excellent habits and
morals, his industry and perseverance,
his riCor of mind and flHency Of
speech, his tried fidelity and known
devotion TO the people, all indicate
him as the fittest and best man the
PEOPLE can choose to protect their
rights and advance their interests in
the Lower House. His great personal
popuiarity, added to his many good
qualities for the office he seeks, render
his election certain and make the
nomination OF All opponent merely a
matter of form.
wM. NJ. sEAwELL,
For Justice Of the Supreme Court, has
no superiors in either party. A lawyer
Of long practice and acknowledged
ability, he enjoys in an eminen: de-
gree the respect of the profession and
confidence of the people. Agentleman
of fine a,tainments and superior judg
ment, conscientious, in~corruptible,
unbiased, industrious and firm, he
will discharge the duties of the high
office to which the people are about to
call him with iinpart;ality and ability.
He will neither favor the rich nor the
poor, the great nor the small, the
strong nor the weak, but without re-
gard to personal consequence, dis
charge his simple duty in deciding
the law.
JOHN C. LEWIS,
OF the Reno Crescent, is an editor Of
recognized force, man OF integrity
and a gentleman of character. He is a
practical printer and thoroughly con
versant with the duties Of the Office for
which he is nominated. In politics,
Lewis is Il Liberal Republican, and
his nomination is proper, not more in
Difference to his personal qualities than
in Justice to the Liberal Republicans
who are everywhere so earnestly push
ing forward the movement for reform.
We indorse this ticket entirely and
heartily and will support it ungrudg
ingiy and earnestly. And now pre-
diet for it a majority equal, if not
greater, than hat given for Bradley
in 1870.

General Grants stable is the hand
soonest building in Washington. Ii
was built with money appropriated
for another purpose, and without oh
taing consent from Congress or the
Committee on Public Buildings. The
General cared more for his Mares than
for his Members, and there was no
one who had the courage to breathe
even a Neigh to his designs. The
question between Grant and Greeley
is whether craftsmanship is better
than craftsmanship as a qualification
for the presidency.
