cut a small feeder of cinnGbar, from

New York, April "a new combine

regarded as an accomplished fact. Yes

held of the representatives of three cor

office. Russell. Sage and George Scott
| representing the Panama and Pacific
Companies, and active directors repre-
senting the Union Pacific. Advocates
and promoters of these enterprises, say
their interests will be subserved by equi-

disastrous competition will be avoided

ties to outside organizations. George
Scott will go to Europe ut an early date
to make arrangements with English and

The BIG GRAPE VINE DooNED.-The
Santa Barbara Times says:

Geo. b. Davis, a prominent fruit.
flower and vine grower in the East. and
who has made his home in California
for the past three years, states, after a
careful examination of the mammoth
grape vine, that it shows serious signs
of decay, and will in all probability die.
Mr.. Davis opinion is well worth atten-
ton, as he is not only a practical, but a
scientific man. A friend who is sojourn-
ing in our city visited the great vine
Yesterday ell route for the Hot Springs,
and after careful examination Of the
buds on the vine, and applying his knife
to the bark in several places. he is re-
luctantly led to CONFEDERATE Mr.. Davis
opinion.

l GOVERNMENT IN FRAUD OF THE
MAJORITY

We propose to examine the charge that
the present State government Is held IN
fraud Of majority of the voters The
first article of the peoples" platform
charges
That the government now existing IN
Duisiapa originated in and has been main
T.ined BY force and fraud, in opposition to
| the will Of large majority Of the voters OF
the State. in opposition to the principles OF
the constitution Of the United States, and
IN violation of every principle OF justice
and liberty.
This is predieated entirely on the as
sumption that the Fusion candidates for
the State officers were legally and fairly
elected in 1872; as, if they were not.
then certainly. the present incumbents
were. How do the facts stand?
l. In order to have the registration and
election, laws manipulated in favor OF the
Fusion party, that party entered into a
conspiracy with Warmoth, the Governor
Of the State against the voters OF the
State, by which he was to manipulate
those laws SO as to return the Fusion
candidates elected, whether they we're or
not. This bargain is so notorious that no
truthful man will deny it.
2. The returns made to Warmoth by
his supervisors of registration, which
showed the Fusion ticket had q majority,
are, many of than, forgerles, as was
Shown before the Congressional Commit
tee On Privileges and Elections; and, as
conclusive evidence of the fact, that said
returns, which were kept in the hands OF
Narinoth and his Fusion friends. have
been ever since kept concealed, so that
the perpetrators Of the forgery could not
be prosecuted; and, further, Warmoth 5
State Registrar of Voters, who was mainly
instrumental in committing the frauds IN
favor of the Fusion party, has since made
z clean breast Of it, and has stated, under
oath, the frauds that were committed,
which show that a clear majority OF the
votes actually cast at the election IL 1872,
were in favor Of the Republican candi-
dates, the present incumbents.
3. The majority report of the Commit
tee on Privileges and Elections OF the
Senate of the United States, who elabo-
rateIy investigated the matter, asis shown
in book of the evidence TAKEN OF more
than thousand pages, denounced the
election as conducted by the Fusion party
in 1872 as an organized fraud, and as not
emitting the candidates Of that party to
recognition.
4. The census of 1870 shows a majority
of colored over white population in the
State, besides many thousands of the
whites included in the census of 1870
were unnaturahzed foreigners and not en-
titled to vote, and it is conceded on all
hands that there are more white Republi-
can voters than there are colored voters
who vote the opposition ticket.
It seems to US the claim of the Fusion
lists that the present State government
was obtai ned and is held by fraud is
totally unf ounded; this being 50, all the
other charges in this article falls with it.

TIE DEMOCRACY AND EMANCIPATION

The Bulletin claims, in the name of the
Southern Democracy, the credit of having
passed the thirteenth amendment to the
constitution. It is well known that no
Democrat in the United States ever vol
unfairly supported either of the amend
meuts to the constitution which put the
finishing touches to slavery. But when
Andy johnson assured them he could not
secure the readmission into the Union of
any State that refused to ratify the thir-
teenth amendment they went in for it
with will. It is true most of the South
ern politicians expected to be made gov
ernors for their complaisancy, and when
they were undeeeived were ready to de-
clare they had been cheated. But they
supported every amendment passed in the
interest Of negroes with sullen reluctance
and denounced them in their platforms
for many years afterward. Neither the
