The returns show that the RepubIi-
can State ticket has been elected, and
very likely they viii also get all four OF
the Congressman. They could not have
gained q more complete victory, and it
Is all owing to the fact that the Dem
oeracy did not make a fair, square fight.
Had they come out in advance of tie
other parties and taken their position
and chosen good leaders we think the
result Of the election would have been
very much more in their favor.
In San Francisco the Worlzingmen
gained the day, electing Kalloch by
about 1900 majority over Flint, the
Republican nominee. They also get
the sheriff, auditor, treasurer, tax col
lector, public administrator, surveyor,
district attorney, city and county at
torney, police Judge, one supervisor,
Eve members of the board of educa-
ton, and railroad commissioner for the
city district The Republicans elect
the assessor, recorder, coroner county
clerk, superintendent Of schools, super
intsndent of streets, eleven supervisors,
seven members sf the board of eduea-
ton and a member Of the state board
of equalization, and re-elect Congress-
nan Davis. The superior judges elect

RUsT AND DRAINaeE.

All our readers know that the loss
in this county from rust this season
viii be fearful, and prominent men and
successful farmers inform us that they
believe the only remedy for this evil is
in drainage. 1t is well established
fact that grain is affected worse on our
low fiat lands, and this virtually proves
that proper drainage will, in a great
measure, do away with rust. In the
East, where farms are not very large,
and are brought to high state of eul-
tivation, drains are made Ct earthen
pipe, and the cost sometimes runs as
high as $50 or $50 per acre. OF course
that is out of the question in this coun-
try, and our farmees will have to use
the open drain. These can be plowed
out without much trouble, and should
be kept open throughout our entire
rainy season, even if the farmer and his
boys have to put on rubber boots and
do the work with shovels. The farms
in this county must have better drain
age, and more fall wheat must be put
in, or else our Sheriff will have to em-
ploy at least balf dozen deputies to
assist him In selling property.

They want-and they know what

They have no interest In these ques-

So far rs their Representatives have

their conduct has not been approved.
From personal intercourse aud extern

know that that issue Is dead. II
can't be resurrected. TO uncover the
grave may stir some unworthy sem
tlments, and may perhaps give Re-
publicans some advantage In the
coming elections. But / think
there can be no question that the
stirring up of the feeling of hatred
that had laid dormant for years can
not arouse such a sentiment as will
live long enongh to enter the cam
paIgn OF 1850. The second, sober
thought of our people will come back
TO the great wrongs which they have
suffered, and that will be the sub
Iect to hold their attention. / felt
