THE SITUATION.

We predicted a few DAYS ago that the
differences existing between the Min
er' Union and managers of the Ruby
Hill mining companies would he
speedily and amicably adjusted. Our
predction was based upon the slate
mems Of both parties, which, conjoint-
ly, would appear 10 justify that con-
%clusou; but we have since received no
intination that any steps have been
taken nward- the reconciliation of diff
f%culiies. The Union has made no an
n0uncement of its intention to recede
from is position in relation to contract
work ana the o employment by the
companies OF other than Union men,
and We have been authoritatively in
formed that the companies are fully
de'ermined not to resume operations
under any dlc,ation in regard to the
manner in which their claims shall be
worked. or as to whom they shall
or shall not employ. And so
tne matter stands At y dead lock.
In the meantime, mining opera
lions are entirely suspended at Ruby
mn, and business Of all kinds
n almost At a standsfill in Eureka.
when there will be an improvement
upon this condition of affairs we will
not hazasda conjecture; but certainly
.he outlook at present appears any
thing but favorable.

EUREKA, March 80, 1876.
EDITORS EUREKA SENTINEL: Gentlemen-It
has come to my ears that certain parties in
San Francisco rumored to be a certain old
gossip that used to reside here, and called by
courtesy DR.. Denny,' and a certain other
party named Thomas, have taken particular
pains to state that l nave left Eureka between
two days for the purpose of avoiding my cred
itors. | would beg to inform any one con-
cerned in my affairs that | am still residing in
Eureka, and in the employment of the X k
Company, In the enjoyment Of money enough
to pay my just debts, and health enough to
chastise the infamous liars, whoever, or
wherever they may be, that started this ru.
NOR. Yours, respectfully,

TIE Marshall Statesman, in an
able editorial, favors the re-nomi-
nation Of Hon. L. A. Clapp for a
third term in the office of COmmis-
sioner of the State Land Office.
Mr.. Clapp has certainly made an
excellent record as a public officer,
and has q host of friends through
out the State. We do not know
whether he desires to run a third
time for the same position or not;
but as for ourselves. We believe in
rotation in Office, and presume that
a man may be found apart from MIR.
G. who will make good officer.
However, if the Republicans of
Michigan sec fit to nominate Mr..
c., we shall cheerfully acquiescc,
for we believe no better mau can
be found for the place. in the State.

puLljcans being inclined to sell out
their party for the purpose of get
ting iuto office themselves. We
have that confidence ia the jntcg-
rity and honesty Of purpose among
the masses of voters in Lake coun-
ty to believe that they will set a
complete seal of disapprojation up
OH all such movements either at the
coming conventions, or at the cleo
ton.
Let us have no "crookcdness' in
this matter of selecting county Off
cials. Honest men, honestly and
properly chosen, is what you want.
If you have officers who are efficient.
honest, reliable, and who have served
one term acceptably, put them in
for another term, if they desire it.
In selecting new candidates, take
those only who arc known to be
honest and capable. Let the Office
seek the men, and do not uphold
Office seekers.
The fact that man belongs TO
either the Republican or Democrat
ic party is no proof whatever of his
fitness to hold Office. Men are not
known by the party they compose,
so much as the party is known and
respected or sneered at-by the men
composing it. Since there is and
must necessarily always be divis-
ion Of political sentiment, let each
man stand squarely upon the plat
form of bis respective party. In
making nominations, all should la
Dor to place before the people the
names Of good and capable men.
If you fail in the convention, you
still have recourse to the ballot box,
and can there vote for the right men,
irrespective of party. Lake coun-
ty always has been and is to-day
safely Republican in politics, and
will continue so, if Republicans will
but be true to their principles and
not allow arrant dcmagogucs to OBJ
tain control, and barter away prin-
ciplc for office.
