A REBuKE.

The Democratic party has achieved
most signal triumph in California, aud
they deserve it for one or two reasons
alone. Last Spring the bread.and-but-
ter brigade got together and issued an
address to the voters OF California
wherein the past ten years were ignored
and state OF facts alleged which. il true,
was most horrible. But the people
looked ut the matter In it's true light, and
saw twas hut huge bug-a-boo. The
r-buke to this valiant brigade IL most
swe- ping and decisive one, and should
convince those political bummers thai
Southern outrages, however adroitly
manufactured. will no longer be swal
lowed with implicit credence. 1t is also
a rebuke to the administration. Since
Sheridan drove ont the Louisiana Legis
lature, California has bad but one oppor
tunity to express her opinion on tina
subject, and this she did on the lat in
slant, by repudiating tho party which
Endorsed his and his superior's actions
The Democratic victory in California cal
not be viewed as an Independent defeat
The Independent must be viewed NOR
as in integer than unit, calculated upoI
more individually than collectively, an
az no party tie binds him, and as til
Democrat or Republican of to-day he tn
Independent of tomorrow, his disintt
grafton and reversal has proportionatel
less injury than would result to an OF
ganized and solidifed body. The Demo
cratic party in California will now hay
an opportunity to introduce measures {
economy, etc., calculated to serve tn
best interests Of the State, and have
most favorable chance to redeem all can
paign promises.
