WANTS A PENsIoN.-The following
letter dated Jefferson City. Missouri,
Sept. 1st, 1879, and directed to David Z.
Gordon, Editor TRINITY JOURNAL, was
received at this office the present week
Dear Sir:-I have Eo doubt but what
you will be somewhat surprised in receiv~
ing this from me. 1t is justtwenty years
ago since left Weavervile. I would
like to see old Bally and the gulches and
flats with the bedrock exposed which l
scraped in search for gold when boy
also my old pioneer friends of 1851. 1
suppose there are but few of them left l
have never seen but two copies of the
TRINITY JonRNAL since left there |;
they were the compliments of Captain
Messec. l am living OH my farm, situa.
ted two miles south of Jefferson City try
ing to make living for my family. 1
find farming is q slow process for me. l
have TO hire too much, not being able to
do any manual labor myself, caused by
wound received when l was fighting
the Indians in Humboldt county under
the State Militia. 1 applied for pen,
sion from the General Government, but
they say the U. S. Government does not
recognize State Militia and that should
apply TO the State Of California for PEN
| sion. l think there should be pension
granted to me by the State of California.
1 received the wound when in action,
and in State Militia mustered in under
the regular labors of California. This is
a ca Sc of long standing, but nevertheless
it is an honest demand, for I. am a COM
plete invalid caused from the wound /
received in suppressing the Indians in
the time when it was not safe to travel
alone. hope the good people of Trinity
and Humbold: will bear in mind the
Trinity Rangers and the Indian War of
1858 0, and hope you will agitate in your
paper in my behalf. By so doing it will
be highly appreciated and thankfully re-
ceived by your old pioneer friend,

GROWN SoME.-Just prior to election
an intimate friend of ours, gass;ng with Il
fellow citizen fiom the Emerald Isle,
was accused of doing certain things in
order to secure the Irish vote sometime
IN the future, whenever he might be a
candidate. The friend jocularly retorted
that he didn't anticipate becoming a
candidate but if he did and an Irishman
voted for HIM he wouldn't have the Office.
This travelled nine miles and got back in
two days in this shape: "If ever run
for office in Trinity county don't want
any Cd id Dutchman or any other
Kind efa foreigner to vote for me !'-
This We take it is a fair sample of the
way political capital is manufactured and
