1t does our neghuor so much good to have
us take notice Of him and his sayings, thai
we would ndee be hard hearted were W,
to treat his utterances, with that senc
which their true merit deserves. Besides
these little notices have the effect of drawin,
him out, and giving the public a chance 20
know where he stands, thus resulting III
much material good to ALL 1t affords us ut
slight degree of satisfaction to know tn W,
can thus he of so much benefit to the peop,
of Placer county. We might work for tin
same result in another way--for instance b,
telling what we know about this chckadc
monopoly insiiiution-but it would not be So
effecfual. We might have told the peop
OF this county twenty times over that thu
offspring of the great railroad lord of the
Pacific, was not only unequivocall, plcdgco
to say good words for him and his, whenever
called upon, or opportunity offered, unles'
by special permissh n to the contrary; that it
is one of the very few Republican sheets
that still blindly attempt TO hold the rotten
remnants of the Republic n party up as
great party still, and one of unalloyed
purity, honesty and portenlious philanthro
pic deeds; we might hive told these and
other things, but they would have been re-
garded, by some. as told only for effect
By drawing it out, to self ncknowledg gmen
of these things, the facts are made conelu
sive. For a while ii attempted to play the
role of wolf in Sleeps clothing, and would
tain have kept its true nature still a secret
but our little punches brought forth its cries
and from its voice all may know it, anc
none he deceived. Our little iicklngs, frol
time to time. seem to keep it in II constant
state Of uneasiness, and it occupies large por
tion of is space in character stically feehl'
retaliation. The way it so studious avoids
mentioning our name, in these endeavors, is
amusing. to say the least. 1t wants to avoid
letting its readers know that there is such -

Rise up brother. Throw off the railroad
shackes, and be free. You don't know h w
good it is TO feel that you are Il man; free
untrammeled and owned by none. If you
prefer TO preach Repnblicansn, we have 1T
objection. But represent the party i'll it,
true light. Be bold enough to acknowledge
its wick edness, and labor for its reform.
People will believe and respect you then,
and you may do some good. But KNOWN
the record Of that party ns well as youi
readers do, what do you think is their opinion
of you, when they read your attempts to
conceal all its shortcomings, and in violation
of what they know to be true, declare the
party guil,less, and its present leaders models
of purity. They will know at once you ART
attempting to deceive them in this, and OF

you may tell the truth n other things. Le'
US, neighbor, in cur heart o. hearts, entreaI
you TO turn from your own destruction, and
