NORTON.

SAN FRANCISCO, CAL, Feb. Is, 1878. I
GENERAL ORDER, NO. 4.
lnasmuch as divers and sundry dis.
turbances and complications have
arisen since the PRONUNCIATION of my
last general order; and,
WHEREAS, An election is soon tc
take place in Nevada; and,
WHEREAS, 1t is impossible for every
man in that State to hold office at the
same time. l therefore, for the pur-
pose Of settling all disputes, make
this my
PROCLAMATION,
Which will be observed by all good
and loyal citizens.
Bradley mus be nominated for Gov.
ernor. 1t is trne the only qualifica.
tons he possesses to fill that position
are age and hcssesty, but still it must
be done. Th former qualification he
can not help aud the latter is but the
simple duty of auy one, / know, but
that makes TO Differences; he is the
only honest nan in the state of Ne
vada, and Diogenes might travel with
his lantern throughout the State with
out being able to find another; at least
this is the opinion of the "chivs," to
say nothing of that terrible phalanx
Prairie du CHEN.
There is a county tar off in the east
ern portion OF Nevada wherein there is
liable to be serious contentious in re-
gard to official p~ositions-it is called
Eureka. | was always opposed to
making such a small strip of territory
into 2 county, and 1t was even said by
a member of the Legislature when the
bill was under discussion that it vas
inpolitic to make a county that an an
telope could clear at a single jump;
yet it was done, and we must accept
the "inviolable." The man who said
that is now a Judge over the same
county, and never complains of its
width.
It's, therefore, further proclaimed that
he be a candidate for the Supreme
Bench, where his jurisdiction would be
broader; his place has been we'll filled,
but there must be room made forthose
lawyers who can not make a living at
the bar-and one OF them must haveit.
Jones must be returned to the Senate;
sp, tueItlOtts IL - lIbdu NISdblb lOI duy
Democratic candidates to be nominated
for the Legislature. They would be
beaten, at all events, and the money
had better be spent where it will do
the most goOd.p
Baker may want to succeed himself;
but it is impossible, and to quiet his
terrific longing for office, | will give him
a foreign mission for life to McGeary.
NJ ID tl.,l 20 0r1nrAl .rt - III,
contest for office, for he did the same
as his predecessor, which beat him for
the nomination.
AS for the Sheriffs office, it kills the
man who has it anyway, SO | will leave
it an open question. If the people have
a particular dislike TO any man. make
him Sheriff for spite. II his deputies
don't kill him off, | will resign my
position as Emperor.
Mr.. Kaye shall not be a candidate for
Recorder, for his extreme desire for
office is only equalled by some other
elected twice, and there is a time to
drop on yourself. Better attend to the
cultivation of the minds of the youth
full; aye, even those yet unborn.
Neither shall Billy Smith be a candi-
date on the Republican side until he
shall have served six months as Sec
rotary of the Infirmary, so that he
may learn the routine of business.
Harmon must be re elected. On prin-
ciple, l am opposedto a third term, but
inasmuch as he served three terms,
the next one will be the first; this con-
clusion is arrived at by simple SUBJ
fractions from 4 leaves land Gig
ures won't lie." l have been terribly
perplexed over the appointment of a
County Commissioner. l wish Horn
and Page would resign, so / could
please three men instead OF one, but |
don't suppose they will. | have there
fore concluded to appoint kellogg, for
he is the most fitted; his intellect is so
comprehensible,a and his integrity so un.
Improbable. that he ought to have it,;
besides, too, he is a solid man in every
sense of the word.
Dave Hall is appointed Permanent
Minister TO Canada, to reside at To-
ronto; Gillen, Consul at Limerick, Ire
land; Sadler, Minister Residentto Ger
many; Campbell is appointed Agent
of America to visit Russia to gather
statistics in regard to the raising of bar
ley; and Chamblin is hereby appointed
Physician to my Royal H~ighness, and
he will report at headquarters at once.
NORTON T..
Empero. of America.
