JUDICIAL CONVENTION.

The Democrats and Liberal Republicans
held their Judicial Conventi. in Sacra-
mento on Wednesday last. The conven-
ton adopted an anti-monopoly, anti back
salary-steal anti-Coolie platform, and
nomina ed Judge Mckee of Alameda for
Supreme Judge to fill out the unexpired
term of Chief Justice Sprague, deceased
an authorized the Central Committee to
place another candidlte on the ticket to Gil
the place of Judge Crockett, should it be
found that Judge was to be elected for
that purpose. there being some dispute
among lawyers on that ptint. We know
Judge Mckee, personally, and have talked
with him on the monopoly question, and
can recommend him as one that is sound
on all the issues between them and the
railway corporations. Sam. Bell Mckee
is now the District Judge Of the Judicial
District in which he resides. Though he
is Democrat, lie has been twice elected
iCl tudt pOeLou III OletIiCJ ~ iS
strongly Republican. thus showing that he
is extremely popular among all classes Of
politicians where lie is best known. Judge
Mckee suits MS exactly, and we believe
the Independents all over the State Should
endorse him ana make him their candidate
for Supreme Judge. This county was not
rerresen ed in The convention, as we have
an Independent organic 'tion, and the
County Central Committee of the Peoples
Independent party will be called together
after all the conventions have been held,
and all the candidates have been placed in
The field, and make choice Of the best
anti monopoly candidate presented, and
recommend the Independents to support
him.

WHAT GROUNDS!

The Sacramento Union recognizes in
Hon. Eugene Casserly a very formidable
opponent to Governor Booth in his Senate
| rial aspirations. 1t seems to think if Gas.
serly can be defeated, Booths election will
be sure, and in its endeavors 10 accomplish
this end It avails itself ef every opportunity
to throw dirt on Casserly's aaperations. We
entertain no hostility tow, rd Governor
Booth, nor have We any particular favoriie
for tn position these gentlemen aspire to;
bu. we can not cit idly by and see slurs and
unjust insinuations cast on the character OF
a man who has done so much for the State
in an hour Of need, and served his consitu.
ents so true and faithfully as has Senator
Casserly The Union intinates that Cas-
serly is in a measure allied with the monop-
oily, an insinuation for which there is no
foundation. 1t says: "Tlere is not one
Of the Federal brigade, from Sargent to
Postmaster Burton. of Stockton not one OF
the railroad brigade, from Stanford to the
Bee, that would not much rather zee Cas-
serly or any other man elected to the Serate
than Governor Booth" an osseriion which
is proven false from the one fact alone, that
the railroad journals are with thu Union IL
throwing stumbling-blocks in the way OF
CHssery at every opportunity, while as re-
CARDS Governor Booth, their onl y real ene-
my, as the Union woul make believe,
they seem to rest at perfect case. Casser-
ly's chances for representing California III
the Senate for the next six years at present
seems as good as those of any other aspir
ant, and as n very prominent candidate he
must necessarily stand the blunt of promi-
ncnt opposition. The fact is. Mr.. Union,
the Federal and monopoly brigades know
that Carserly is, and believe that Booth
as United States Senator, would be a de-
termined opponent 10 their interests, and
whose chance seems uppormost is the one
on whom the monopolists and Federal bri-
gade will heap their strongest denuncntions
and the one they will do most TO defeat

NEW SUPERVISORS.

The counties of Californa are divided un-
der the code, Sc. 40OG, in reference to Su-
Pervieors into three classes. Those coltain-
ing eight thousand and under twenty thou
sand inhabitants constitute the second Glars" 4"
Placer comes under this class, and we find
under section 422, that Supervisors of the
second ciass have to give bonds in the sum
Of ten the ussnd dollars, "a matter which our
Supervisors elect should attend to at once,
ss it will be but very short time Jefore
they will have to meet 10 transact business.
Under the Code the first business of the
new Board Of Supervisors is explained in
section 3714, which reads rs follows: "1he
Board of Supervisors Of each county must,
on the first Monday of October, fix the rate
OF county taxes, desi gna'ing the number OF
cents on each hundred dollars Of property
levied for each fund and must levy the
State and county taxes upon the taxable
property Of the county" Their next meet.
Ing will b, on the 19ih Of October, as the
Code requires them, section 1887, to meet
on the first MOI day after each election, to
canvass the retnrns and their regular quar-
terly meeting will Le on the first Monday
in November. Thus it wi be seen that
the new Board will soon be called upon to
perform the duties Ct their important office,
aud when they do once get started an un-
usual amount OF business will be forced
upon them in comparatively short time
Another important ma tier which will have
to be attended to when they organize, will.
be dividing themselves into classes, in refer
ence TO short and long terms, as provided ty
section 4027 Of the Political Code Section
1929 provides that the Clerk Of the county
is ex-oficio Clerk of the Board of Super
vsors, which is change from the old law
as the Re corder has Heretofore held that
position. AS the new Board are necessarily
inexperienced, and not supposed, either, to
be poeted in regard to these matters jurt
yet. We have thought it not ont Of place to
make mention of these facts for the benefit.
not alone of the Supervisors elect themselves,
as start, but for all who are seeking infor-
nation on these points.

CAAaAcrEMeTIc OF THE MAN.--C

CuAaAcrEM.IIc OF THE MAN. N.-Com-
plants have come to us from those who
took All interest in the election Of w. S.
Cook, Of Dutch Flat, TO the Office of Con-
staGie; to tile effect that w. b. Lyon COM
mitted gross act of injustice to. Mr. Cook !,
who vas f1ie regular nomioee Of tho same
convention which nominated Lyon. by print
ing large lot Of tickets with the name of a
relative of his on for constable instead Of
Mr.. Cooks, wl'o'n Lyon in convention had
agreed to support, Tut whom he thus de-
feated. Cooks friends may term this gross
injustice as long as they propose to treat
such acts with mildnees. but We think that q
no. the name for it. But treacheroue as it
may appear, it is only little >rick which
speaks loudly of the character Of the man,
and !nt;mates TO the people of Placer what
would have been the result had they
chauced to end the Argus boss 10 the Leg
jslsture. 20 those who propose placing
confidence in him, We would snggest that
passage Of Popes. "Ths proper study Of

BOOTH VS.. OTHERS.

"Touch him where he's tender if you wan,
him to jump" We touched tender spot o.
the Union last week, when We gave it tc
understand that We thought it was devoted
more to man than to principle, and ii
jumped. 1t acknowledges being welded tc
n man, but says that is not all. 1t wane
to see reform in legislation. as well as TO
! send reformer to the United States Sen
ate. We must remind tho Union that
when the people Of Placer County who have
suffered equal with any other county in the
State from the evils which giant monopo-
ly had ineultingly heaped W on them. got
up a reform movement to rid themselves
from these abuses. it took pain' TO tell the
people that they would do well TO oppose
this move. and advised them to vote for the
same men, or cl ss Of men who had been
instruments in tile hands of the monopoly
for goueing money from the poorer people,
and derriving them Of their just rights.
The Union claimed that Booth represented
principle. Our :cform party pledged
themselves emphatically to that principle;
the others to the man. though it ignored the
very substance Of the issues, viz: local re-
form. The Union pronounced these prin-
ciples good, Tut when it found, with the re-
form party in Placer they took precedence
to the man, it turned its back on the prin-
ciples and stuck to the man. Hence we
accuse the Union of sacrificing principle fo'
the sake of the man; and now that the
election is over, it calls on the very men
whose lection it opposed, and tells them il
they do not stand by i,s man they will be
going back on their principle. 1t may be
that they will. If Booth is all the Union
claims Cor him, and if lie is the only man
who does really possess all the essential at
tribut,s which are necessary TO enable II
man to faithfully and ably represent the
ople of California on the present issues,
then should they fail to support him, they
would fail to support the principles to
which they are pledged. But is he !?
Maybe go. But there is time enough De-
tween this and the meeting of the Leg'sla-
ture to determine all these things. BoolL
is Il late acquisition to the Peoples party
Casserly has been fighting the monopoly for
vcars Booth may have tLou yht the cor
ruptions and tyrannies of the Administra-
ton were great evils. but he has never said
so, to our knowledge. We propose to
speak of these two candidates for the Sen
ate, Booth and Casserly, with respect, aud
not do as the Union does, assail the one
that is not our choice and charge him with
being in league with the mo .opolsts and
with almost everything that is calculated to
njure him, whether it is true 1r false Our
principle is this: The man who can bes,
represent us in the United States Senate on
the monopoly question and in opposing the
corruptions of Congress, is our man, for we
are emphaticslly and uncompromisingly in
earnest in doing our best to bring about
that reform which the nation in all its de-
partmenis is suffering for, and shall continue
to labor to the extent of our ability, through
the best avenues that may be prescn ted :,
for that end

STATE FAIR.

The twentieth annual State Fair of Cali
fornia which commenced at Sacramento last
Monday, and which ends to-day, has, from
accounts, been the finest exhibition ever
held in the State, and the number of visi.
'ors have been equal if not greater than or
any previous occasion. The display Of
stock at the park has been great from the
first to the last the stables have been all
well filled up with horses, sheep, goats,
swine and horned cattle, and though the
heat has been somewhat oppressive. the
races were one Of the CLOSEST feature of the
Fair. Last year iheexhibiton Of fine stock
was better than atany previous exhibition.
Tie U'tion ;ncomparns this exhibition with
that OF lastyear says:
1--WE thought at the time that it wond bc
impossible to improve on the bulls, COWS, calves
and yearl.ngs exhibited here last September,
bnt there is this year considerably greater
number and shade better in quality. In the
exhibition of fine sheep there is more marked
Improvement, and also IN graded stock, both
horses and neat cattle. We doubt that any
State Fair in the Union will be able this year
to show AS splendid parade this one in tn.
stock line. Something has been gained since
september, 1872, in the speed of both our run
ning and trotting horses. No course in the
United States with the exception of tie Lex
,ngton, Kentucky, course has shown as good
heat races AS we have had this year (st the
Spring meeting) over The Union Park track
All the crack thoroughbreds of the State a.
now here, and nearly all of them have acquired
some fresh achievement this week. In trottng
stock, for some cause not quite explained, ouI
State Fairs up to this year had not shown an
equal improvement in favor of native-bred
horses. Probably the cause was that the most
promising colts and mares overworked
before they had acquired sufficient age.
While California to- lay stands without
rival in the production OF fruit and cereals,
it would seem that she is not long 10 be
behind in the quality Of her live stock, and
the speed OF her booded horses; and
though young in the sistersood C States,
her manufactures are various and most
highly c:editable. From year to year her
abundant resources become more apparent
from year TO year she has advanced re-
markably in the production of everything
that gives wealth and comfort 10 her citi-
zens, and has made rapid strides in al tie
finer arts which tend to raise her people to
that higher and nobler standard of civliza-
ton. Her citizens, in the recent political
contest have given the most satisfactory
evidence of their ability and high appreci =
ton of self government. and when the
hydra-headed monster monopoly which has
stood aversc TO their advancement, shall
have been thoroughly brought to succomb
to the laws, both State and national. Cal
forn;a will soon take more exhalted seal
and with a coronet Of wealsh upon hel
brow, will be hailed by the world as t.t
Queen of the West
