TO those who intend to be candi-
dates for nomination at the Repub-
lican Primaries, we will say, You
might as we'll come out, and be we'll
canvassed and slandered before the
heat Of the battle commences, or
something will be, sprung on you
that you will not have time to
go around and centrovert. 1t won't
cost you any more, and you will have
time to get used lit before you are
nominated; and of course nomina-
ton is equivalent to an election. The
county Offices are something that ev-
cry property owner in the county is
interested in, and none but our best
citizens should be trusted with them.
Come out then, all of you, and let us
take our pick out of those announced.
And don't be discouraged, if you fail
the first time, for candidates cannot
always see their faults as we'll as their
neighbors can. Each may be riding
some hobby visible to every one but
himself and to have it pointed out to
him may be doing him a favor which
they would feel free to do upon no
other occasion. Again we say, come
out, and let's see your PAGES.

HAVANA, July 10.

HAVANA, July 10.
Colonies of several volunteer regiments
are circulating petition for signatures
among officers and men, to send to the
authorities of Madrid in opposition to
the Republican manifesto and projected
reform in Cuba. Several companies
have refused to sign, but majority favor
it. There is better feeling between
conservatives and republicans.
KINGSTON, Jamaica, July Is.
A Spanish war steamer has arrived
here. Her coming creates alarm for the
safety of the steamer yirginius. The
Spaniards threaten her, and Quesada
declares he will blow her up, no matter
at what sacrifice, rather than permit her
to be captured. The L. S. Consul went
last evening, at midnight, with some
Cuban gentlemen residing here, to So
licit the interference of the British colo
NAL authorities. The excitement in the
city growing out of the affair is very
great. Arrangements will be made by
the commander of the Virginius to secure
the release of the schooner Village Bride,
with cargo of arms from Port Antonio,
the Governor having issued orders for
the release of the schooners cargo,
which had been seized.

EqUALTT, OF REPRESENTATION.

The Constitution requires that repre-
sentation shall be based upon population;
that is to say. = thousand people in one
county shall rot be allowed over half as
great representation as a county con-
tanning two thousand of population.
Legislatures have essayed time and again
to adjust representation upon the terms
of the Constitution. but only with partial
success at best. and too often without an
attempt 10 meet the requirements of the
law in a most essential matter All al
most total disregard OF the Constitution
has existed in California on the subject
of representation. When the apportion-
ment was first made the mining counties
had preponderanre of the population
ana representation was based accordingly,
but when population began to leave the
mines and seek homes in the agricultural
counties, so far rs to give the latter a
large proportion Of the State S population
and wealth, there was no corresponding
change in the basis of representation.
The Petaluma Argus states the case sue
cinctly viz:
Sierrl county, with population of 1913,
and probably less than 4,700 at present,
has one Senator and two Assemblymen.
\ fair apportionment would require
HOOD inhabitants for the number Of
representatives Sierra will have il the
next Legislature, and the county is really
entitled to only one-third of the repre-
sentatlycs it will send to Sacramento
We have 1t on undoubted authority
that considerations connected with the
election of Senator Casserly successor
were the means of defeating the appor-
tionment bill in the Senate at the last
session, and continuing the present I'M
Just apportionment, under which $4,000
voters in twenty-four counties will elect
US many members of the next Legisla-
tnre as 10000 voters elect in the other
twenty seven counties of the State. This
is but one Of the numerous incontro-
veTtable arguments that may be offered
in favor of a change of the Constitution
of the United States by which L. S.
Senators will be elected by direct vote
Of the people.
But the remedy suggested by the Argus
does not, in our Judgment, meet the OBJ
lection fully. The original ideas OF the
trainers Of the Constitution can be car
ried out i'll its fullest extent by allowing
ONE representative to each county, who
should be allowed to cast the number of
votes he received at the polls.

Department viii recommend his imnedi
ate trial by Court-martial, for making an
illegal use of the Freedmen's Bureau
funds. New developments in relation
to transactions in connection with the
Bureau and the Howard University are
being brought to light. One of the
latest developments is that although
Gen. Howard was not appointed Presi-
dent of the University until 1869. he
demanded and was paid over $4,000 as
presidential salary for two previous
years, for time when others were serv-
ing in that capacity.
OK Saturday night, man was seen TO
come out of Chinese wash-house on
Rag Alley, salt Lake, followed by two
Cinnamon. The man had walked but
Z few feet when he turned, and as he did
30 one of the Cinnamon drew pistol
ana shot him, the ball entering the right
side of the belly and going straight
in. The mans name is John Strasbur-
ger; he is German and shoemaker
ana has shop Immediately west of
himball 4 Lawrence's store, to which
he was removed from the saloon. The
wound that he has received will doubt
less prove fatal; in fact he was thought
to be dying when he was taken to his
shop. The cause of the shooting is not
known; but two of the Cinnamon arrest
ed were recognized by the wounded man.

Tue Cosr OF WAR.-In the British
House of Commons Henry Richards,
member of that body, and Secretary Of
the London Peace Society, made telling
speech in the interest OF peace. He pro-
ceeded to show that the danger Of war
kept four millions of men armed annually
in Europe, rendering necessary a taxation
OF 81 600, 900, 000 and the payment of II
yearly interest on war debts of SI5, 0O0,-
900. In addition to this, the value of
the labor drawn from industry was esti
mated to be 1850, 1000, 900. In Ger
many, the CONSUMPTION forced an emf
grafton which was depopulating the
country; and Russia, France and Italy
were financially crippled by the expense
Of their enormous war establishments.
