says J. W. Jordan, member Of the Demo-

county, with J. W. Rossiter, of California,
called at the Democratic headquarters last
evening. Being questioned as to the pros
poets in California, Jordan said YOU can
put it down as q fixed fact that we have
got them. We have the best Democratic
State Central Committee we. ever had in
California. We are holding wonderful
meetings everywhere. / have never seen
so little enthusiasm among the Republicans
of u State. The veterans, under the en-
ergetic leadership Of General Rosecrans,
are doing good work. The association is
daily receiving accessions from the Repub-
lican ranks. We have a very large indie
pendent vote in California that inevitably
goes with the party that puts up the best
men. The great majority of w~orkingmen
who left the Democratic party have come
back, and are coming back to vote for
Hancock and English. We have got the

For Murder.
MANIrowoc, Wis, September 29.-Anna
Stroker, who has been on trial here for the
murder of her employer, Miss Nancy Sher-
wood, was visited by her mother yester-
day, who, holding up a Catholic cross and
adjuring her to tell the truth. got from her
q confession OF the murder, which con-
fession she subsequently made in court.
She said that Nancy scolded her and called
her crazy on Sunday. which SO exasperated
her that she pushed her down on the floor,
and picking up an Ak, struck her on the
neck and head, and on finding her lifeless
she dragged her out into the yard and con-
csaled the body. The girl is only II years
old, and can neither read nor write. She
has hitherto shown no signs of guilt.

DEMOCRATIC TOWNSHIP TICKET.
Dun COUNTY TICKET.

No better or more acceptable ticket
than that nominated by the Democratic
Convention Tuesday has aver been placed
before the people Of Eureka county. The
convention seemed to have been actuated
by a single purpose-to place the very
best men in nomination. OF course many
good men were defeated, but in nearly
every instance equally as good men were
chosen. The Legislative ticket is especial.
ly strong and able, and will command
the united support of the Democratic
party, beside drawing largely from the
opposition. There can be no question
that it will be elected by a sweeping ma
jority. The same may be said of the
county ticket. The nominees are all
gentlemen of integrity and first.class
qualifications, and each in his sphere will
serve the county and people faithfully
and well. The ticket, as a whole, is con-
coded. even by Republicans, to be a good
one, and there can hardly be a doubt Of
its success from top to bottom, if all
make a long pull and a strong pull
together. Organization and energetic
work OIL the part of candidates and their
friends are now in order. With proper
effort . glorious victory awaits the Dem.
ocratic ticket on the second day of No
vember. Let the effort be made in in.

the interest Of his party as well as him
self to know. In short, he Numbered
terribly, and cannot avoid the conse-
quences In such cases made and provided.
The cock whipped in its own barn-yard
cannot consistently crow on other prem
Uses and although the Maine Senator is
said to have accepted an invitation to
speak in Philadelphia at an early day, he
is likely to provoke more sympathy than
anything else. In other words, his comb
is cut and his gaffs gone"
1t is as appropriate as remarkable that
the loss of Maine to Blaine should follow
SO swiftly upon the heels of his defeat at
Chicago. The latter rendered his final
retirement from the Presidential ring
practically inevitable, but when supple
mented by the former no choice is left
him. He stands no more chance Of a
presidential nomination than Zach Chan
dler or Conkling. Like Conkling he will
probably figure prominently as a politi-
clan as long as he lives; but for anything
beyond this he is as dead as Chandler.
And nobody need be sorry. Of unques-
toned ability and very considerable per-
sonal magnetism, Mr.. Blaine belongs to
that class of statesmen which the oun
try is better without. Indeed, it is only
by courtesy that he can be called a
statesman. He is, in fact, simply a bold
and successful agitator literally spiced
with d~emagoguery. His patriotism never
went beyond Mason and Dixon's line;
the nation in his opinion was the Repub-
lican States only, and to his persistent,
INSCRIPTIONS and vindictive sectionalism
he owes all the national notoriety he has
achieved. He has had magnificent op-
.portunities to play the paciicator and
win a popularity worth a hundred presi-
denotes, but has thrown them all away
in a vain attempt to ride into the execu-
tive chair on issues essentially hostile to
puDnc peace and prosperity. lie may be
regarded as the original inventor and
patentee of "the bloody shirt" and tor
fifteen years has 1ourished it in the face
of a people weary Of such reminders of
fraternal war, and anxious only to heal
the wounds that wal inflicted. 1t was
e~minently proper that the miserable flag
which he was the first to hoist should be
dragged in the mud in his own State,
and serve as a shroud for the desperate
ambition which sought its own ends at
the expense of national welfare and ma
tional unity. "The eternal fitness of
things" was never more vigorously set
forth than in the collapse Of Blaine in
Maine.

BLAINE n MAINE.

The New York Herald says that the
result of the Maine election was not re-
ceived at the headquarters of the Ma
tional Republican Committee with that
unmixed sorrow which might have been
expected. The dark cloud of disappoint-
ment and disgust had a "silver lining"
30 to speak, in the fact that Names most
distinguished son was badly, If not ire
parably, damaged. More than one prom
inent Republicans says the Herald
was heard chuckling over a defeat which
indicated that Blaine's prestige was en-
tirely broken. and that hereafter he
would have all he wanted to do at home,
leaving presidential aspirations to his
betters.
It cannot be doubted that there IL
more or less truth in this rather uneen.
srous verdict. Mr.. Blaine has 90 long
been the idol Of his party in his own
State. and has 20 long assumed to carry
that States political influence in his
pocket, that, when the tidal wave Of
1880 swept Maine from his grasp, il
landed him high and dry"-for the pres.
emit, at least. The disaster would have
been bad enough in its effects upon him
Il he had anticipated it. and prepared
his political friends elsewhere for such an
event. But when his anticipations-so
tar a. made known to the public-were
quite the other way, and when only three
days before the election he claimed a ma.
jority Of over 1000, his reputation as an
organizer and prophet is seriously. if not
fatally, injured. Evidently he did not
know what he was talking about. Evi.
IDENTIFY he believed his power in Maine
wa As firmly fixed as ever, when in
reality it was undermined and totter;ng

An Interview with Senator Tones
He Denies Having Written n Let
ter In Favor OF Colonel Fair for
United States Senator.
[ By Telegraph to the Sentinel

SAN Francisco, September 29.-The
Bulletin this afternoon will publish an in
terview with Senator John p. Jones, of
Nevada, relative to a letter which the
New York Worlds Washington corre-
spondent alleges to have been received by
an intimate friend Of Jones, of Nevada, in
which he u his determination to
disconnect himself from any participation
in the conduct Of the Republican party,
and to support Fair for the Senate, as
against Sharon. Senator Jones emphatic
ally denies having written such a letter,
and says further that he has mo- for many
weeks written any letter containing refer
ence to political affairs. While confessing
his preference for Grant as the nominee OF
the party. yet when the Chicago Conven-
ton selected Garfield, the latter became
his choice. and he regards him as emf
nently fitted for the position he holds, and
that in no election since the Democracy
resolved itself into the rebel army in 1861,
has the success Of the Republican party
been OF more importance to the welfare Of
the country. As to the Senatorial contest,
the stupidity Of the utterances in the
alleged letter is evident, from the fact that
1t is only within q few days that it has
been known that Fair would be mentioned
as q candidate. and it Is not yet certain
whether or not Sharon will be a candidate.
He expresses confidence that Nevada will
cast her electoral vote for the Republican
candidate.

oDel Fair was called out, and thanked the
people for their enthusiastic welcome.
Other well known Democratic orators being
seen were also called out and made brief
addresses. Colonel Fair then invited all
in and treated them with champagne and
cigars. A steady stream of men passed
into the dining-room and out the back way
for fully an hour. Wine flowed freely,
after which the crowd dispersed. The peo-

A NEW ORLEANS SCENE.

An incident as absurd as it was disgrace
full, says the New Orleans Times, occurred
the other day in one of our city railwa,
cars. A gentleman and his wife, wei
known in fashionable circles, entered the car
which was empty with the exception of the
writer. Their general appearance and at
tire conveyed the idea that they were peo-
pie of not only wealth, but of culture and
refinement. A few squares further on Q
young man, poorly and shabbily attired,
wearing a threadbare alpaca coat, which
shone with several Summers wear, boarded
the car. He was evidently poor clerk re-
turning from day of weary, monotonous
toll over his desk. Unfortunately for him,
he sat directly opposite the ultra fashion
able couple. The lady CD cast a cold,
scrutinizing glance at him-a look such as
would freeze him to the backbone and
giving q scornful little cough, turned to
her husband, and remarked, in an audible
tone: 1 ~ ~ M
"Gilbert, my dear, why do svu not get
