The idea that John Shermanwould resign,
owing to the passage of the silver bill over
the veto, is absurd. Sherman has made his
fortune by being in office, and the only thing
in the shape of an Office which he would be
willing to relinquish would be one which
had no salary attached.

PROBABLE USIoH.-We notice that
meeting of the Republican State Cen
tral Committee is called at the Palace
Hotel, San Francisco, on Wednesday,
April 24tb. at 2 o'clock, p. NJ. The
attendance of members is earnestly so
licited, as matters Of Importance will be-
presented for consideration. Following
such call is another for meeting of the
Democratic State Central Committee at
the same time and place. The natural
inference is that an attempt will be made
to unite the forces of both parties and
do away with politics in the selection
OF delegates TO the Constitutional Con-
vention. 1t is contamination de-
vouty to be wished" and il is further
hoped that these Committees will defer
to the wishes of the citizens of the
Congressional Districts in the naming
of candidates, allowing each District to
select eight of its own residents and
recommend them to the voters of the
State at large. 1t is certain that better
men will be secured in this way than
through the machinery OF State Con-
vention.

MINORITY REPRESENTATIONS Now
that the Constitutional Convention is at
hand it would be well to suggest before
hand some of the changes which might
he sdvantageously made. What has
been called the cumulative system of
voting, which gives the minority rep
resentation, has been tried and found to
work well in the State of Illinois. The
State is divided into Legislative Districts
and each district elects three membe of
the Legislature. A voter has the prlvi-
lege Of casting all three of bi. votes for
one candidate, or to divide them equally
between two or to vote for zach one just
RS he may choose. The result is that in
a district where the Democratic party is
in minority the Democrats of that Leg
islative District concentrate their votes
on one Democratic candidate, and by
that means secure at least one represent
ative in the State Legislature, and when
the condition is reserved in a Democratic
district the Democrats would have two
representatives of the majority, and the
Republicans one representative of the
minority. If this plan were adopted it
would prevent the large maiorities of
either one or the other party which some
times gets control Of tho legislature often
90 the great disadvantage of the State
While we are not prepared to commit
ourselves fully to the plan, We think this
would be good subject for some of those
who wish to go to the Convention to
study up.-SOaOmG Democrat.

CoNCURRENT ACTION AsKED.-At the
joint meeting OF the Republican and Dem
ocratic Committees of this county, held
last Wednesday, it was resolved to invite
similar joint action on the part Of the
party organizations in Siskiyou, Modoc
and Shasta counties. To secure such Joint
action, the ChaiImen and Secretaries Of
the two Committees here were directed
to communicate with our neighbors and
invite co operation. The four counties
Siskiyou, Modoc, Shasta and Trinity
comprising this Senatorial District, will
have to eject one Delegate jointly to the
Constitutional Convention Siskiyou and
Modoc one, and Shasta and Trinity one.
Our people believe it will be beneficial to
divest the election of all political charac-
ter selecting candidates Of unquestioned
honor and integrity upon whom all citi
zens can unite. The matter will be a.
once brought TO the attention Of the Com
mittees Of the several counties named
and we hope to see prompt and harnoni-
Gus action taken in the premises.

THE PRESIDENTS PLAN Before a
formal assembly of the Cabinet Tuesday
ths President said that certain platforms,
ifadopted, would be likely to reunite the
Republicans, who could then control Con
grsss. Following is the platform in
brief:
First-Tbs resumption Of specie pay
ment in gold and silver.
Second-Resistance to all schemes for
initiating paper currency.
Third-A fair and moderate tariff, that
will afford reasonable protection to Ameri-
can industries.
Fourth-An amendment to the Consti.
tuition prohibiting the use of money aised
hy public taxation for the support Of sec
tartan Gchools.
Fifth-The speedy completion of all
public works, such rs river and harbOr
Improvements, public buildings, fortifcs-
tlons, etc: and now that la Dor and mater
ia are cheap and workingmen need en-
ploymant, liberal policy for the improve
ment of the great national channels of
commerce, like the Mississippi river
and its tributaries, should be adopted.
The members of the Cabinet coincidsd
with the President, ard after some in
formal discussion sixth paragraph was
added, declaring against the payment of
claims to disloyal citizens for damages
and losses growing out of the rebellion,
and the payment of pensions to persons
who were disloyal during the war. With
this addition the platform was pronounced
TO be a fair presentation of the views of
Administration.

Pond, his agent, said "The assertion
that the absence Of Tilton showed that he

es Of the Chicago Tribune of April ID,
in an editorial, fOrshadowed the coming

the public. 1t may be true that Tilton

Mr.. Beechsr then stated that for more
than four years Mrs. Titon had been de-
nylng the truth OF what was called her
original confession. In Court, before the
Church and before committees she had
asserted her Innocence. This would more
than offset anything she might say now
Her latest statement was instigated by a
desire fora feunion with her hus band, and
was the price paid for publishing the
same. He said he would continue his
course just the same, Notwithstanding the
renewal of the scandal.
