the week show that j. G. Nash has sold
the FL Dorado Canyon property to Israel
W. Knox OF San Francisco, California,
and letters from Knox say that he is not
responsible for any of the debts incurred
under former administrations, so that
there is liable TO be trouble about mat.
ters and things down at FL Dorado. No
wonder the new constitution OF Cali.
fornia was adopted by such large ma
jority. 1t is such dirty work as the
above that compelled the people of Cali
fornia to adopt this new constitution to
protect themselves. No person who be-
lieves in honesty. who believes in deal
ing honestly, and who believes in being
honest himself, will object to tho adop.

Phoebe, and who is employed as mail
rider from Kaign's Springs to the lower

gun and told him to "sit down." He
sat down.
