JOURNALISTIC ENTERPRIsE.- The San
FraGeisco CAr0aicte is fair specimen Of
the enterprise Of American journalism.
1t is already the most influential daily
published on this Coast and its propri-
etors are determined that it shall main
tain that reputation. They have now
started in todouble the circulation of their
journal in this State, and seem in fair
way Of accomplishing that result. A
splendid map OF the Pacific States will be
given to each new yearly subscriber to
the Chronicic, and already more than
four thousand have taken advantage of
the offer. The proprietors will expend
$4,000 in Improvements Of their paper
and such enterprise never fails Of reward

RAILROAD MONEY. About clec-
ton times, all sorts Of lies are generally
started, and as fair specimen Of clumsy
lying, we ;hinl this can't be beat. Ger
tain Democrats, who have such profound
respect and vencration for the truth that
they never have anything to do with it,
started a story to the effect that Mr..
Draper, the Republican candidate for the
Assembly, had been offered all The mon
cy required 10 make his election secure,
whereat, being an ant-rairoad man, in
full sympathy with the people on that is
sue, he returned home, declining to be a
candidate. But when it was found that
had accepted the nomination and, with
the other nominees was visiting the differ
ent precincts, the story was changed to
suit tho altered circumstances. The way
they now had it was that Mr.. Diaper
had been offered money to canvass with,
which he had refused, saying that if he
could not pay his own way, he would
not have accepted the position. OF
course the money offered was railroad
money" 1t will be observed that in nei-
thcr version OF the STORY was anything
wrong attributed to Mr.. Drapor-the lie
would have been too barefaccd had any
dishonorable motives or acts been attrib-
nted 10 that gentlelNan. Learning that
Mr.. Draper was said TO have told these
things himself we asked Lin how much
foundation there was for the story, and
ofcourse found there was none whatever,
that both stories were lies manutG ctured
out OF whole cloth. So much for an at
tempt to hgmbpg voters iuto belief that
tho railroad company tried to make n
fgbt against Tinnin's re-e!eetion. That
geptlemaB'S chances cannot look very IA
vorable, when his adberents have to re-
sort TO such means to advance them.

STATE CoNYENTIOG.-Ata a meeting Of
the Republican State Central Committee
held at San Francisco, it was decided TO
postpone holding the State Convention
until September 18th. The reason for
his action is that it is not yet known
aad viii not be known until Governor
Booth Issues his proclamation for the
Special Judicial Election. whether one or
two Judges are 20 be elected this Fall.
The opinioa CT esaiaeut lawyers is that
both Crockett and Eiies. who at the time
of their election were chosen to fill out
nnexpired terms caused by ihe resigna-
i4oh Of ganGerson and -Shaltog, were in
reality elooted for the full terps OF ten
years each and that The Constitution
makes no provisions fer electing Supreme
Justices for any shorter period than ten
years. II will be seen only by the proc
lamatsOn OF the Governor whether he is
disposed TO accept this unofficial opinion
or not, hence the postpopemept,

TRINITY COUNTY REPUBLICAN, PLAT
FORM, ADOPTED JULY 9?D, 1873.

The Republicans Of Trinity County, in
Convention assembled, hereby adopt the
following platform
lst. We hold the Republican party to
consist Of all persons who favor the equal
political, and civil rights OF every Amer
lean citizen free and universal educa-
ton, and elevation of the whole sAmeri-
can people socially and morally. That
1t is now, as it has always been, compos-
ed OF the best and purcst political senti-
lnent of the country; and we now renew
the expression Of our devotion to it and
declare our belief that it is only through
the Republican organization that all need
cd political reforms are to be obtained.
ID. We heartily applaud the active
measures of the late Congress in ferret
ing out and exposing corruption and en-
phatically denounce the Credit Mobilier
transactions and the Back pay steal"
Sd. We fully realize the necessity of
railroads, and that they are indispensable
to the development and prosperity Of the
country ; but we believe. nevertheless,
that they are subject to legislative re-
strlctiOn, as well as legislative protection
and we therefore declare that it is the du-
ty of the legislature to examine carefully
- N'''4 NS44Ns'e e4N4If A4Nf' tttiAt
tions, and pass such laws upon the sub
ject OF fares, freights, and the rights Of
the travelling public, as shall be just to
the people, and hold the railroad compa-
mics to strict accountability under the
laws.
4th. We declare against any further
gifts or grants Of the public lands to cor
porations for any purpose whatever. and
hold that the public domain should be
reserved for actual settlers under the
Homestead and Presumption Laws.
5th. We demand the reduction of tax
alton to the lowest figure consistent with
the efficient working Of the State and To-
cal governments.
9th. We declare the continued immi-
grafton Of Chinese into California to be
m evil which ought TO be abQtcd in any
legal manner within the power Of the
government.
