Grand Republican Rally-Mr. Phelps
Speaks.

STOCKTON, July 31st.-Over 5000
people assembled at National Hall
this evening to hear the remarks of
Hon. II. G. Phelps, Republican NOM
inee for Governor. A procession of
800 citizens, each bearing torchlight
and headed by fine band of music,
escorted the speaker from the Yosem-
ite House to the hall, which was ap-
appropriately decorated with flags,
evergreens and patriotic pictures.
After the regular order of business,
Mr.. Phelps was introduced to his large
audience amid loud applause. His
first remarks were OH the war of the
Rebellion, after which he picked up
the railroad question. He was in fa-
vor of railroads being built through
every county in the State, but he
wanted such companies to build them
with their own capital, and not with
that of the people. He was not in fa-
vor of monopolies, but was not so
bitter in denouncing that question as
Gorham and other speakers. He
spoke on this subject in agentlemanly
and pleasing manner. He dwelt upon
the expense of our State Government,
saying that it should be cut down in
proportion to that of other States.
He thought our State Government
officials were entirely too extravagant
AMI using too much of the peoples
money for paying big salaries, and
was bitterly opposed to it. He said
our Secretary of State was drawing
three salaries, and is allowed to en-
ploy three, four, or six clerks, which
was altogether unnecessary and an in
suit to the taxpayers of the State.
He hoped the eyes of the people would
be opened soon, and that they should
protest against such foolish mode of
expenditures in the future. He COM
pared the guards of our State prison
with common farm hands, and said
they should not be paid any more per
month for their services than a farm
laborer, as their work was not quar-
ter as laborious as that of these farm
hands, still they were paid double sal
ary. He said there never had been a
time but what our State Government
n
million annually, and it could to-day
be reduced fifty per cent. He said he
had no respect for those sore-heads
who have left their party because
they could not obtain office. In MAX
ing his closing remarks he pledged
himself to reform and low taxation
should he be elected. 1t was the
most brilliant and enthusiastic meet

the expenditure of q sum of money,
he increased from mere nominal
value to $500 per acre, a large area of
land owned by himself. Now as be-
tween individual citizens We submit
the proposition: BY what condition
of circumstances can the Council
justify the act of granting one citizen
o privilege and withho lding iG from
another? If no right or contract was
violated in granting Mr.. BEAUDRY
permission to erect water works with
in the corporate limits of this city, it
follows that none are, or can be jeop-
ardized by granting like permission
to Mr.. PORTS. The only real question
which enters into the issue between
these two gentlemen is one which Mr..
BEAUDRY has not touched upon, but
which the Council should have con-
sidered before granting him the privi-
lege he obtained. The point is this:
Certain rights and privileges have been
granted by the city to other parties
for and in consideration of stipulated
services. What the Council should
determine is, to what extent, if any,
does the privilege granted to Mr..
BEAUDRY or will that asked for by Mr..
PoTTs, affect the pledges of the city
to those parties. If no pledge or con-
tract on the part of the city was vio-
lated in granting the privilege now
exercised by Mr.. BEAUDRY, neither
the one nor the other can be affected by
granting similar privilege to Mr..
PORTS or to any other resident of this
city who may apply for it. lion the 9th
or hand the guaranteed rights of those
parties were jeopardized by the privi-
lege secured by Mr.. BEAUDRY the city
is liable to the extent of the actual
damage sustained and she will be also
liable in equal proportion and extent,
should she extend to Mr.. PORTS sim
liar favor to that now enjoyed by Mr..
BEAUDRY. This is the only question
to be considered by the Council. The
assumption of Mr.. BEAUDRY that Mr..
PORTS or any other citizen is not en-
titled to the same municipal privileges
with himself is untenable and re-
quires no consideration at our hands.

The Rights Of Citizens.

In his opposition to the application
of Mr.. PORTS for permission from the
Council to convey water on his own
land, Mayor BEAUDRY adopts what
appears to us to be line of policy in
direct opposition 10 that which he has
advocated prior to the inception of the
enterprise which Mr.. PORTS now de.
sires the consent Of the Council to
carry into effect. It will be remem-
bered that Mr.. BEAUDRY obtained
from the city government q privilege
exactly similar in nature and purpose
to that which he is now exercising his
influence to prevent Mr.. PORTS obtain
ing. By the use of this privilege and

Death Of Andrew johnson.

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, July .3lst.-
The death of Andrew Johnson at 2:30
this morning is confirmed. He desired
that his winding sheet should be the
flag of his country.
who Owns the western Union stock.
NEW YORK, July 3lst.-The Tribune
says that member of the Western
Union Telegraph Company's Execu-
tive Committee who is well acquaint-
ed with Commodore Vanderbilt, was
questioned as to the truth of the re-
port that Nand r'ilt was ready to sell
out his stocl. He said that Wander
blt is perfectly willing to part with
any speculative stock, such as the
Western Union, but he is intensely
stubborn. The stock he holds cost
him Sc, and he will never sell it at a
loss. If it can be got up to 90 he will
sell out to Jay Gould or any one else
who will give him his price; but the
retirement of Vanderbilt from busi-
ness would not necessarily involve the
retirement of his friends. Vanderbilt
has large number of followers in all
the enterprises into which he enters,
and Messrs. Schellerwork, Harker,
Durkee and Thorne, who are all looked
upon as his friends and had all been
identified with the management of
the company, do not believe they
would sell out their stock, even If
Vanderbilt should. There are S35, ,000,-
600 of Western Union stock in all.
The Commodore holds $5,O00,00O and
his friends Sl1 100000, making $l6,-
100000, enough to control the Board.
If Gould desires control, he will
have to buy the Vanderbilt
clique which to-day owns more West
ern Union stock than does Vanderbilt.
It is we'll known that Jay Gould owns
$7,5O0,O00 of the Union stock against
$5,000,000 held by the Commodore.
Should he buy out the interest of Van
derbilt, which the latter is quite will
ling to sell, the moment the stock ris-
es above Sc, Gould with his $l2, 100000
will be very near controlling the
Board. He will have to purchase it
all himself however, for he cannot re-
ly upon friends. He has no such fol-
lowers as has the Commodore, but he
makes up in cash what he lacks in
support.
Turner Forgery Case.
CHICAGO, July S1st.-The Turner
forgery case still monopolizes the time
of the Criminal Court. This is the
last day of the July term, and the
Court will proceed with this case next
Monday, the first day of the August
term, and will continue the same till
finished.

borrowing Money.

borrowing money upon The nstalment plan
is attended with these advantages: The loan
can be repaid in small monthly amounts
which inelude the interest and part of the
principal, so that by the expiration of the term
It can be all paid without any great inconven-
ience to the borrower; the rate of interest is
generally lower; the expenses Of obtaining
the money are not so great as in ordinary
loans, and if it is borrowed upon good paying
property then il often happens that the rents
will meet the monthly instruments and in
time pay off the debt.

The Mormon Murder.

BEAVER, July 3Oth. Elisha Hoop
sons cross examination, opened with
lively skirmish and words between
witness and Baskin. The knife the
doctor used was dagger and had a
cross guard. He would drive it clear
in to the OK. The doctor then took
the vial and poured something in the
hole. The witness contradicted him
self several times and appealed to the
Court frequently. The Court said
witness was not being abused, plain
questions only being asked. The cross
examination proceeded at great length,
witness making all sorts of statements
as to details of the alleged poisoning
ofthe OK and frequently changed his
position. t
Philo II. Farnsworth Sworn. Was
Bishop in the Mormon church in 1857,
SO was John Morgan. Was not cut off
because he sold cheese to emigrants.
The man lived in Beaver fora year af-
ter emigrants passed and was never
disfellowshipped.. He went from Bea-
yer to Fillmore with George A. Smith.
He did not know, nor did I, that the
emigrants were in the territory till we
met them at Corn Creek. We camp
ed near them, and next morning one
of the emigrants asked us If we sup
posed the Indians would eat an OK that
died in their camp. Our reply was
yes probably; afterward saw a white
man at the OK with Indians. Believe
this was the same train which was
massacreed at Mountain Meadows,
Dukes emigrant train came along by
Beaver ten days after. Heard that
the company had divided. They were
attacked here in Beaver by Indians.
The Court held that any acts or attacks
on this party were not material and
ruled the testimony out. Adjourned.
