and forcible dscourses against the prevailing
vice of the age, inemperance. His text in

drink is raging, and whosoever is deceived
thereby is not wise" The discourse present
ed a startling picture of the fearful effects of
the intoxicating cup, and urged the passage
of law holding the seller of liquor RESPONSE
BILE for its consequences. In his sermon at
night Mr. F. advocated still more strongly
the necessity of preventing the unrestrained
sale of intoxicating drinks, by legislative en-
actment of some sort. AT the request of
many of our subscribers we shall cndeavor
next week to give short synopsis of one or

making this pledge, and now he is q candidate
for the United States Senate and if he is elected
it will make Pacheco Governor for nearly year
and perhaps more. However, the Sacramento
Union says, "his Gubernatoria term will expire
about the time his Senatorial term will begn,"
Is it possible the Union thinks March and De-
cember OF the same year is about the same time? ?
Again, the same authority says, The people
have released him from this pledge, because
they want his services in the Senate" What
people have released him? l answer, none but
the anti-monopoly wing of the Republican par
ty and have shown that that wing comprises
about one-fourth Of the party and one-fourth of
the Republican party is about eighth of the
people; hence it appears that the Sacramento
Union and one-eighth of the people are willing
to release him from his obligation to serve them
four years as Governor. l have no candidate

the big fight first and decide what the Senator

then to decide who he shall be.

did not even know of the existence of these 'spe-

Death had forgotten them. Their medicines
were herbs and roots They have left this fact
on record, and the world seems now taking note
of it and returning to the first principles of med
ication. Hostetter's Stomach Btters, the pur-

the day, is also the most popular. Thousands
of persons who only few years ago believed

DUTCH FLAT CORRESPONDING

DUTCH FIAT, June 16, 1873
EDS. HERA1D:-The mining season is drawing
to a close. The water failing rapidly and will
and consequently more prosperous, than we
expected few months ago.
Grant is President; smler Colfax has shown
that man may smile and smile and be a rascal.
Uunt recently there has been but one poll
tcian in Dutch Flat, and yet the world moves.
The political cauldron begins to boil, and the
word fusion is coming into use and growing in
favor, and am in favor of fusion with the
honest wing of the Republican party, if it can
be efected honoraby; but if a cringing, knee
bending policy is to be accepted on our part, as
was done in the last Presidential campaign, it
will be miss count to count me, because such
a course always has and always will end in dis
aster and disgrace.
Taking the vote of Coggins and Page in this
county as criterion, we will find that about
one-fourth of the Republican party can be re-
lied on to support the peoples candidates.
while about fourteen-ffteenths of the Demo-
cratic party can be relied on to do the same
thing; and three-fourths of the Republican par
ty and one fifteenth of the Democratic party
may be expected to support the ring monopoly
candidates. Now. l am willing to give our Re-
publican friends who may unite with us in this
fight against the robbers and plnnderers of the
people, more than an equitable share of the
candidates, but they must not insist on making
the election of Governor Booth to the United
States Senate an indispensable condition of fu-
sion, for that will be to throw stumbingblock
in the way Of a union of the anti-monopoly
forces, and will defeat it, Let the admirers of
Governor Booth present him as their choice,
and his claims will be fairly considered.
[ am wool-iyed Democrat but I would
vote for Booth for any Office in the gift of the
people in preference to some Democrats I could
name, who are his equals in talents, but who
have shown themselves the friends of the peo-
ple's great enemy.
When Newton Booth was candidate for the
Office he now fills, he found it necessary to
pledge himself that, if elected, he would serve
out his full term. This pledge was necessary,
because Pacheco was we'll known to be in the
interest of the monopoly, and no man who pre-
tends to have common sense, will pretend to be-

STOLEN HORSE RECOVERED. horse of
j. r. Willis, which stolen about three
weeks ago from his stable ON Broad Street, has
been recovered No pains or expense has been
spared by Mr.. Willis or the Sheriff in warning
the officers of other counties to be on the watch
for the thief. The first of this week news was
received here that the Sheriff of San joaquin
had in his possession a horse answering the de-
scripton of the one stolen here On receiving
this news, Sheriff Dunnam, accompanied by
Mr. Willis, owner of the horse, went to Stock
ten to see if this was Willis horse. Some
little difference arose at first, on account of a
dim brand on the horse, which. in his descrip
ton, Mr.. Willis had omitted to mention. But
other evidence was produced which left no doubt
on the mind of the San Joaquin Sheriff as to
the identity of tae animal. and he at once re-
stored him to his rightful owner 1t seems the
thief had made his way to Stockton, and be-
coming short of fuances had traded this ami
NAL, worth not less than 800, for an old plug
comparatively worth nothing, and $40. This
kind of horse swapping created suspicion,
and the Sheriff of that place relieved the party
who had made the happy trade from the enjoy
ment of his good luck by taking possession Of
the horse. At last accounts the thief was still
at large, but we learn from Mr.. Willis that the
Sheriff at Stockton says he is bound to catch
him, if he is in that part of the country. We
congratulate Mr.. Willis on the recovery Of his
horse. He lost fine horse by the fire some ten
months ago, and to have lost this one so soon
after would have been more than his share of
losses in horsehesh in so short time.

HARVEST AND CRoPs.-As We stated last week,
the hay and grain crops in the foothills are
pretty much all gathered in, and the yield was
better than had been expected. In the valley
or western part of the county the harvest is yet
very busily going on On all sides headers are
seen at work piling up the golden grain. The
hay crop is all cut and mostly stacked, and we
learn the supply is abundant for home use, and
in some cases farmers will have hay to spare. 1t
will be remembered that the rain fall since the
first of March has been very light, and some
weeks ago nearly an entire failure in late crops
was predicted, and early sown grain, it was
thought, would not make more than half a crop.
But different than the average Spring, the wealth
er has remained cool, the usual blighting north
winds have been more rare, and, contrary to the
fears of many, instead of withering and dying,
the stem of the grain has retained its virtue, con-
tinued to grow, and at last developed a good
head of grain and as consequence the grain
crops, instead of being even a partial failure,
are nearly an average. Placer never yet has
failed, and, knowing as we'll as we do the ma
ture of her SOIL we predict that as long as crops
are raised in California, she never will fail.
