Mr.. EDITOR ~ think our neighbor sign
ing himself " Citizen does not understand
lie difficulties hero in Stockton Ii he does,
do not. Hc speaks of the firm buying prop
! erty at war prices, as being one Of the causes
that compelled them to make an assignment
Citizen 7 must remember that they received
war prices for their stock, and war ronts for
.heir real estate, and even at the present time
or very short time back, received on an in
vestment of one thousand four hundred dol
lars, an income Of one hundred and eighty
dollars, about fourteen per cent. on the in
veatment, aud in these depressed times the
war rent las " Citizen calls it, being much
more.
&C" speaks Of the fire as being another
cause. fire is always sad thing and we
feel sorry for any one who is unfortunate
enough to have one, and this one of the spoke
factory was disastrous one. But we have
heard that one of the firm said that the loss
sustained by the firm WAS fully made up in
profits from stock sold and three thousand
dollars over. Surely the fire could not have
had much to do with the assignment
Then . c." speaks of land sharks aud mon
ely shavers as being another cause. l have
heard that poor excuse was better than
none, but really we think it will not apply III
this case. But we happen to know of some
money shavers ourselves and if this unfortu-
nate firm has fallen into worse hands than these
surely they are to be piiied, for those that we
speak of will take both principal and interest
and then deprive tho victim of his future ex-
istence, if possible.
c." also speaks of mems company being
Stunned in the day Of adversely. Now we
happen to be acquainted with one of the UNI
fortunate firm, and he has had the misfortune
to lose every dollar he is worth and l have
vet to hear the first word of blame, or even an
unkind word uttered against him. His COM
pany is not Stunned by any honest man and
believe there is not man in Stockton, that
does not sympathize with him and would be
willing TO take him by the hand. think the
citizens of Stockton too noble to rejoice at
the downfall of the unfortunate firm, and the
people do not shun the company of any men,
Der of the firm because of the failure. But,
if individuals will conduct themselves in such
a manner that their company needs be shun-
ned whose fault is it? Now we have shown
that property bought at war prices, was pay
ing handsome profit even in these depressed
times, and according to the firms own state
ment the loss sustained by the fire was fully
covered and three thousand dollars to spare
they have none or very little stock on hand.
Where then is the cause of this enormous
failure Cannot F." Citizen tell US of a bet
ter cause? o.

Let the dead Sleep. We are ashamed
publicly to speak Of their heroism
in the history Of to-day. They have
passed beyond the stencil and cor.
sruption, the flies and maggots, the
hunger and thirst under burning
Southern suns, and no longer ask
aught Of us. Our heart aches Tt is
all a huge farce; a righteous indigna-
ton consumes us. The Government
is heartlessly cruel. It called them
to sacrifices thousands times more
terrible than the Juggernaut, and
has forgotten the purchase price.
The enemies who followed them with
bloodhounds now seek the life Of the
nation, and crate the principles Of
the rebellion in the Senate Chamber.
No! we scorn this empty offering.
Turn out these rebels! Tear down
their flags! Send traitors where they
belong; and God will carry the flow
ers in the deft fingers Of the sun
shine and the raindrop, and will
weave wreaths and garlands by the
agency Of the winds, and will make
melody by the orchestra Of all ma
ture. Until then we shall leave our

to cry out How long, O Lord, holy
and true, dost thou not Judge and
ayenge our blood on themr'

Last week we stated that the St.
Paul Dispatch was informed that
Gov. Pillsbury had decided not to
allow his name to go before the State
Convention as a candidate for re.
nomination. Since then it transpired
that the Dispatch was lily informed
and that the statement was wholly
unauthorized, as the following direct
from the executive mansion to the
Dispatch will show:
"The statement in Saturday eve.
ning's paper that the Governor
would not allow his name to go be.
fore the convention, = ETC., was
wholly unauthorized, he never hav-
ing authorized any one to make any
such statement. .
From the above announcement it
may be fair to assume that Gov.
Pillsbury is still candidate, that
he has decided not to withdraw and
that his name will be presented to
the convention. The Dispatch de-
pricates this determination Of the
Governor and thinks he is doomed to
inevitable defeat. May that be as
it will, the Governor no doubt knows
what he is about.
