SAN FRANCISCO, April "a.
The Young Mems Republican Club
held an excited meeting last night in
Dashaway Hall. There was a large
attendance, including delegations from
the Custom House and other depart

eral Government.
The Chairman of the Committee on
Constitution and Bylaws reported a

our common schools. and demanding
the maintenance of a strictly unsec-

A MISUNDERSTANDING von Trakerop
is a Dutchman Of the damphool persua-
sion, who started from San Jose, a few
weeks ago, with q German flag, to
walk across the continent. He arrived
in Reno last Thursday and left for vir-
ginia City to make a show of himself
and be stared at by the sap-heads OF
the Comstock, from whom he expects
to receive q silk flag. A stuffed club
would be more appropriate. Such
ducks as this Dutchman and Sergeant

they are designed by the Almighty.

4 GOOD WORD FOR THE sENTI.
MEL.

We thank the White Pine News for
It's complimentary remarks about the
SENTINEL. There is nothing truer
than that every member Of . commu-
nifty is benefited by the publication of
. good local paper in its midst. We
know that there are obstructionists in
Ill communities, who never patronize
! newspaper or do anything else in the
way Of public enterprise; yet, the
newspaper goes right along, welding
It's powerful influencean and %showering its
benefits upon the just aud unjust
alike. Year after year the SENTINEL
has pointed out the wonderful re-
sources of this section, called the atten-
ton OF capitalists to the inexhaustible
nature Of our ore deposits, and, in fact,
advertised our wants and expectations
far and wide on all proper occasions.
The SENTINEL early called for the
construction OF q railroad from Pali-
SADIE to this place. After hammering
away ct the subject for years, piling up
figures and statements that could not
be controverted, showing that such an
enterprise would pay q handsome rate
of interest on the money required in
Its construction, our efforts we're at last
crowned with success, and the whole
line Is soon to be in successful opera
ton. Tho NeWs kindly gives the SEN
TINEL proper credit in the premises,
and yielding, for the moment, to a
sense Of gratifed pride, we reproduce
entire the graceful tribute OF our
n~ighboring contemporary, which is as
follows, to wit:
When some great public enterprise
has been accomplished through capt.
tai, It Is often the case that people lose
sight of and forget the o~riginators and
projectors of the great work itself. 1t
Il true, no great public enterprise can
be successfully undertaken and &C
complished without capital, and peo-
pie are eve glad 10 praise those who
Invest their means in any public work
Of merit. That Is right, they deserve
KI68C CE0OlLS Out ISL ~ oQuoliy uuc
that II the great enterprise originated
In the brain Of some one who had the
power to agitate the public mind until
It was convinced of the feasibility OF
the same, yet did not possess the
means to carry it out, should not that
person ct least be remembered when
plaudits 60 up for the capitalist We
might answer the question individual
~, but what WI most desire is, that the
public should answer it, and answer it
rightly. To do this they must go back
TO tho origin Of the enterprise and in
ouire where it originated, who got it
before the public, and In what manner
WA It kept there, until there was no
longer Q doubt Of Its feasibility. We
have been led to this subject by having
witnessed the power of the local press
on enterprises OF q public character.
We need not go far for one example.
To the Eureka Sentinel to-day belongs
the credit Of having caused the constrnc-
ton OF that great public enterprise, the
Eureka and Palisade Railroad. 1t took
time. but the repeated and conclusive
arguments - to the feasibility of the
road brought capital ct last, and the
road was built, not for the benefit of
the Sentinel alone, but for the great
public.

Articles of association of the Vir-
ginia City and Umatilla Railroad Com
pany were filed in the Office of theSec-
rotary Of State last Wednesday. The
road il to run from Virginia City
through the counties of Washoe and
Roop, to the northwest point of the
northern boundary line of the State of
Nevada. The names of the incorpor-
ators are O.. n. Johnson, A. G.. TAYLOR,
C. C. Coldridge, J. NJ. Short, p. f.
Mohrhardt. The capital stock Of the
company is to be two millions, divided
into zoe. 900 shares, of the par value of
ten dollars each. Two million dollars
is the actual contemplated expense of
building the road. The length of the
road will be two hundred miles. We
presume that the route to be taken
will be through Steamboat valley, the
same as contemplated before the build
ing OF the Virginia and Truckes Rail-
road. 1t will be remembered that a
bill was introduced in the late Legis-
lature for a railroad 10 the Oregon
line.
The recent severe experience of Mr..
John Carlin, Of Lyon county, who was
recently lost in the mountains, an &C.
count Of which we published recently,
developed something new in the way
of extracting frost from frozen feet.
During Mr.. Carlin's journey his feet
became rost-bitten, and fearing they
would be frozen beyond recovery, he
hit upon the plan of digging a hole in
the loose sane with his hands, placing
his bare feet therin and covering them
up for a time. The method proved
thoroughly efficient, as the frost was
extracted in a short time, and his feet
are now as we'll as v

THE ISSUES.

Our q FRANCISCO QlSpatcneS tO-Oay
give . synopsis Of the platform re-
ported by the committee Of the Young
Mems Republican club at the meeting
Of that organization last Friday even
ing. The platform demanded the
nomination for municipal and State
officers of honest and capable men,
and that they should be held response
bic for the details of their respective
Offices. TIE resolutions advocated an
honest and economical administration
of the Government, equitable assess
ment of property; denouncing the in
reference Of corporate monopolies
with the affairs of the Government,
and demanding from candidates abso-
lutte freedom from such influences.
Chinese immigration vas deprecated,
and an un~sectarian school system ad.
vocated. These were the principal
points embraced in the resolutions
presented by the committee, and which
were defeated by a vote of 25 to %
when submitted to the club. The tele-
gram does not give the line of argu-
ment or the eason adduced by the
opponents of the resolutions; nor can
We comprehend the depth of human
ingenuity which could devise a plausi-
BILE argument against the principles
they epunciated. The explanation,
however, is in the fact that the organi-
cation was controlled by a delegation OF
Federal officers from the Custom
house, acting under orders from Sar-
gent, Gorham, Carr & Co., whose pol
icy for the approaching campaign
is evidently to ignore every
local question Of interest, and to make
their fight upon manufactured issues
alone; avoiding troublesome questions
in regard to the acts of the party in
power by diverting the attention of the
people to the outrages of the Ku Klux;
and drowning the voices of inquiry and
protest against the Administration
in bowls against the white leagues and
opposition to the platform presented to
their kindred associates. That the
the Young Mems Republican Club, OF
San Francisco, was directed by the
same influence that dictated the late
address to the Republican State Gen.
trail Committee, of California, does not
admit of a question. This is as certain
as that the same influence will control
the conventions of the party in the
State. The elf-constituted leaders Of
the Republican party in California car
not afford to meet the issues presented
In these resolutions, 10 will they per
init them to cut any figure in the ap-
preaching campaign If in their power
to prevent it.

LUDINGTON'S KNOW NOTHING
ISM.

The best answer to the charge
of Know Nothingism brought
against Mr.. Ludington, the Repub-
Hcan candidate for Governor is by
showing the appointments he has
made during the time he has held
the office of Mayor of Milwaukee.
These appointments have been dis
tributed among the several national
tiles as follows: Commissioners of
Public Debt-Scotchmen, 1;Ger-
mans, I; Americans 2. Tax Com
missioners, -Germans 1; Irishmen,
1; Oil Inspector Englishmen 1.
Observation-Disclosures, 4; Foreign
ors, 9: Chief of the Fire Depart
ment- lrishmen, 1; Germans I;
Member of the Fire Department
approved by the Mayor.) Foreign
ers, 81; Americans, 4; Chief of Po-
ice-German, 1; Members of the
Police Department. Improved by
the Mayor.) Germans, 20; Ameri-
cans, 6; Irishmen, IS; Welshmen I /;
Hollanders, 2; Bohemians, 2. In
view of these facts isn't it the most
ridiculous thing in the world to call
this man Know-Nothing afte,
making nine tenths of his appoint
ments from among the foreign ele-
ment of Milwaukee? AS the Sentinel
truly says, if Mr.. Ludington is a
member of a Know-Nothing lodge
he ought to be expelled forthwith
for his favoritism towards the for
eigners in making appointments to
offices.

THF OLD STAGERs AT THE FRONT.
The Milwaukee Commercial Times
complains because at the late Republi-
can State Convention, there were SO
many old and prominent members of
the party, whereupon the Chippewa
Herald says: "But look here, Mr..
Times, if you want to see the old sta
gers-some Of whom were holding
ward caucuses on the hurricane deck
of Noah's Ark-and who distinctly re
collect playing ''seven up" With Me-
thesusalch as to who should be dele
gates-just wait and notice the coming
Democratic Convention. How "fresh

phans as Judge Villas, Gabe Bouck,

The Democratic Leaders.

Ia the great speech of Hon. O. P.
Morton, of Indiana, at Urbana, Ohio,
on the 7th inst, the following truthful
portrayal occurs of the present Leaders
of the Democratic Party:
If you would be fully instructed,
inquire who to-day are the leaders of
the Democratic party. Not one
who took part in the suppression
Of the rebellon-not one. Their
motto is, let no such man be trusted.
If any soldier who fought for the Tn.
ion lmagines that be has obtained, or
can obtain, the confidence of the Dem
ocratic party, let him be undeceived.
They may for purposes Of policy in
doubtful localities or States where they
are weak, give him subordinate Office,
but even that no longer than the me-
cessity lasts, and never by any chance
will he be placed in a commanding po-
sition. Look at the leaders of the
Democratic party in Indiana, Ohio,
New York, Kentucky, everywhere
they are Bourbons all, untainted by a
single patriotic resolve or action for
the suppression of the rebellion. They
are your Thurmans, Hendrickses, Til
dens, Bayards, Seymours, Kernans,
Eatons Pendletons, ct I'll onane genus,
gentlemen Of ability, each and every
one of whom has been the unrelenting
antagonist of the government from the
day our flag was hauled down in blood
from the summit of Fort Sumter. They
have denied the power of Congress to
coerce state to remain in the Union.
They have asserted the demonstrations
atty OF every great measure to prose-
cute the war. They cast the whole
weight Of their influence against the
government throughout the struggle
They proclaimed the Presidents proc
lamation OF emancipation TO be fla
grant violation of the Constitution.
They went to Chicago in 1864, in the
m DIST Of the last great campaign, and
published to the world that the war
was failure and should be abandoned
They fought to the bitter end the Thir-
teenth Amendment, abolishing and
forever prohibiting slavery; With equal
bitterness they fought the Fourteenth
Amendment, prohibiting the assump-
ton of the rebel debt, the payment for
the slaves, and establishing the equal
rights Of citizens in all the States.
They resisted, with increased energy,
if that were possible. the Fifteenth
Amendment, which declared that no
man should be deprived of the right of
suffrage on account Of his race or color.
And in 1868 they solemnly declared in
convention that the reconstruction laws
were null and void, thus encouraging
the Southern people to resist them, and
making themselves responsible for
much Of the blood and violence that
fOllowed that feachino .st.e

DEMOCRATIC LOVE FEAST.

There was meeting of num-
Der of the prominent members
of the democratic party held at the
Plankington House in Milwaukee
last Friday evening, with the view
of comforting on the subject of the
withdrawal of Governor Taylor as
a candidate for renomina alton on the
Reform ticket this fall. The meet
ing was held under lock and key.
J. D. Gurnee, of Madison, was
chairman. There were present
Sam Burchard, of Beaver Dam; Sat
Clark, of Horizon; E. S. Bragg, of
Fond du Lac; d. G. Fulton, OF
Hudson; Joe. Rankin, of Mantle
voc; H. H. Gray and Philo orion,
of Lafayette County; B. R. Hinck-
ley, of .Oconomowoc; Philo Dun
ming, of Madison, Walter S. Green,
of Jefferson county and others.
Several of Taylor's friends were pres
ent from different parts of the State.
George w. Bird, the Governors
Private Secretary, acted as grand
inquisitor, standing on the stairway
leading to the room of the meeting
and "spotting" every man who en-
tered. After considerable parley.
ing on the subject of Taylor's unfit
ness for the office of governor, they
tried to pass resolution declaring
that it was inexpedient to renomi-
nate Governor Taylor, but failed to
get it through. They then tried
another, declaring that they would
support the nominee of the conven-
ton, which also failed. The only
resolution which finally prevailed
was one to adjourn.
