rHE CONTEST IN cALLFoRNI,

No former resident OF California can
fail to feel an interest in the political
contest now pending in that State. Never
since 1856 has there been campaign
which has excited so great an interest In
the public mind. In that year Presi-
Dental election was held, and 1t was
thought not impossible that the result
might depend on the vote of California;
the Legislature then to be elected had
the choice Of two United States Senators;
and two members of Congress were to be
elected, besides local officers, in many OF
the counties. This year, however, there
is no State officer to elect except one or
more Justices of the supreme Court;
yet the interest equals if it does not ex-
coed that manifested III 1856. Then the
star of Democracy was in the ascendant;
Republicanism was just beginning to
rear its hideous head; Know Nothingism
was on the wane. Now Democracy
scarcely knows what to do or how to do
it. Republicanism is crumbling to pieces
of its own rottenness, while Indepen-
dents, Taxpayers, Peoples party adher-
ents and tag-ends of American politics
are trying to save the State. The great
contest is for the election Of members OF
the Legislature, upon whom will devolve
the duty of choosing a United States
Senator. Twenty-one State Senators
out of forty zone to fill vacancy are to
be elected and eighty members of the
Assembly. For Senators nominations
have been made in all the districts ex-
cept two; for the Assembly nominations
have been made in all but ten or twelve
instances. Following is list Of the
