The Gudaloupe treaty between Mexico
and the United States was ratified In
July, 1s4s. Under article eight OF that
treaty Is found this clause
Those who shall prefer TO remain in
the said territories. may either retain the
tito and rights OF Mexican citizens, or
acquire those of citizens Of the United
States. Bot they shall be under the OBJ
legation 10 make their election within
one year from the date of the exchange
Of notifications Of this treaty; and those
who shall remain in the said territories
after the expiration Of that year, without
having declared their intention to retain
the character of Mexicans, shall be con-
slider. a to have elected to become citi-
zens Of the United States.
Az Bidwell did not take any active
measures to retain his Mexican citizen.
ship and remained in said territories
after the expiration OF the year. it's
pretty safe TO assert that by this passive
action he became n citizen Of tho United
States. And thus another maligant
prodded and shown to be empty .air.
II there are any more in reserve the OPP
position "organs" had better hold them
till two or three days before election and
then start them ahoat. That would be-
clever dodge and might have some effect.
The dual fiat has gone forth. The
pug-nosed Morrissey and the Roman
nosed Dagget have declssed for Governor
Tilden for the Democratic Presidential
candidate in '76, and the country Is safe.
Some men are born great and some have
greatness thrust upon them. and OF the
latter is Dagget. Once he emulated the
Hon. prize-fRhter on the ground and
lofty iumbln2. but failed. and now on
the higher plane OF mental judgment
they stand worthy compatriots and
mutual Warwicks. When John threw
up his hat for Tilden he little thought
that the portly editor of the Enterprise
would stand in with him, bnt 80 1t ia.
and the endorsement OF the sage OF
Washoe gives us renewed belief in the
varied greatness of his mind. We ad-

in him, for instead OF selecting one Of his
old and tried companions. endeared to
him by many fond recollection Of wassail
bowls and jovial hours. he cast bis eagle

The Nevada Democrat hits the nail
square ON the head whom 1t says:
II it were not for the State of Nevada
and its mines. there would be no such
paper as the Stock REPORTING stock re-
port. and, in fact, no San Francisco; and
yet Califor mans want to know what bus
mess we have with California elections.
There Is three. column editorial and
q well.merited rebuke Ia these half dozen
lines.
In November 1872 George Francis
Train, writing to friend, said that
Woodruff would rise, Beecher would
fall. II George had quit there he might
get up n reputation for being seer. but
he kept on in his soothsayings aud pre-

of Grant, which blasted all his hopes Of
being considered prophet.
President Grant has appointed Hon.
II. 5. Clapp of this place United States
Marshal for the District OF Nevada, vice
Geo. l. Lammon displaced. Senator
Clapp has represented this county in
the State Senate for the last four years,
and will no doubt discharge the duties OF
his office with his usual ability.
Jesse Pomeroy has written statement,
pleads not guilty, and argues tho case
generally. It's probable il he were re-
prieved and acquitted he might be in.
