Deacon Porkinson has abandoned Carson
and is now connected with the Ns,os.
Thieving, hypocritical, matchmaking editors
are constantly harping on faith, hope and
charity.
Mr.. Parkinson having permanently located
in Bodle and promised to referu, it is in bad
taste for any Bodie paper to set down aught
in malace against him for, although bad man
in Carson he may be COED man in Bode and
is now no doubt endeavoring to retrieve the
past and walk in the paths of godliness. In
stead of abusing him by insiRuation let the
press of California take him BY ths hand and
lift him up. He now has an excellent oppor
tunity to make himself an ornament to an
honorable profession, being associated with
COED and pure partner, Hsole by name. Uader
such influences the Deacon must be really ir-
reclaimabls if he does not reform We have
faith that having been tried in the FIRE he will
yet be able to put the past behind him and
look hopefully to the future. Any assistance
which the APPEAL can render will be cheer
fully given.

TIE CHIMES. PLANK.-A Chinese plank
has been inserted in the platform adopeed by
the Republican Convention which reads a.
follows:
While We offer q home to all who wish to
cast ia their lot with the American people, yet
we are assured by our fellow citizens of the
Pacific Coast that grave dangers rise from the
unlimited Influx Of . strange people, who, with
out any sympathy with our civilization and
free institutions, seek our shores, not for a
home, but merely to get money to take back
with them to the homes they left; and We
therefore invite the earnest attention of the
Government Of the United States to q careful
consideration of the evils arising from such
immigration, with view to make such treat
les and enact snch laws as will avert the dan
gers complained Of. ... j.. .....
The process Of inviting the attention of the
United States Government to the evils Of Chi
nese immigration is an I'D story. The people
Of the Pacific Coast Are left to stamp out the
nuisance, and ii all ceased tc patronize the
Mongolans for one month they would become

his question that the question of contested

usages in vogue in the various States. The
Chair ruled this out of order and debate

given to the Illinois contested districts.
CHEERS ron BLAINE.
During this discussion . California dele
gate mentioned the name of Blaine and a
shout of applause burst from the galleries
which lasted for nearly five minutes. Dur
ing that time the hall was the scene of the
widest excitement and the long centinu-
sncs of the cheering gave great annoyance
to the Grant faction. Conking locking dis
gusted.
AN HOUR TO BACH SIDE.
After silence was restored, the debate con
tinsed and lasted an hour. At times there
were some lively and exciting passages, and
Conkling who at times lost his temper, in
dulged in some Of his characteristic sallies
which we're keenly relished by the galleries.
AN OVATION FOR GRANT.
When Storms was speaking this evening
he mentioned the name Of U. 9. Grant and
was Immediately interrupted by a deafen-
ing shout Of applause from the galleries.
Those who did tho cheering seemed deter

cheering seven minutes. The excitement
was indescribable.
The vote on the Illinois question will not
be reached before l o'clock.
THE LATEST RUMoRs.
Conkling has the Grant delegation still we'll
in hand, and there are NO signs of break
He remarked to-day that some of the Blaine
howlers would yet be glad to vote for Grant
for grub money. The fact of Sherman's cam
didacy has been thoroughly canvassed, and
it is considered that Garfield wsuld make a
better compromise candidate.
Fred Grant, denies that he stated that
Blaine could draw on Jay Gould for any
amount, but asserts that a negro delegate
told him he was offered 81 900 to vote for
Blaine but refused. The Cenkling Gorham
faction declare that they have from 295 to
BOG votes on the first ballot, and that they
are still confident of success, determined to
stay in the city all Summer if necessary.
1t is believed that a plan has been formed
to prolong the Convention until after Sunday.
If the Grant men hold out, and Blaine gains
no votes after the third bellot. he will throw
his strength for Sherman. Both sides ap
pear confident tonight, and the Grant men
say that the vote in the Illinois minority re-
port does not affect them

THE RESULT AT CHICAGO.

It now appears prettylevident from ths'vote
on the minority report that Grant has fol-
lowing of 3O6 votes in the convention under
= leadership of recognized ability and deter
nination, who propose to remain solid as lsng
as there is hope left. Blaine has PIG and
the balance are scattering, with majority
Of them for Sherman. 1t must be recollected
that the veto of 40 against Grant on the
minority question represents strength which
is divided between several aspirants. With
these factors in the contest, it is folly to talk
of certaintiss. and at any Moment q change
in the programme may be effected which will
bring about the most unexpected results.
Republicans have only to bear in mind that
the nominee at Chicago will be the next occu
pant Of the White House, and not get excited
over the present mixed state of the Chicago
convention. .--......

A WORD TO THE BOURBON Press. - The
Virginia Chronicle is continually waging war
on the "machine" as it chooses to call the com.
pact organization of the Republican party in
this State. Politics like everything else is a
science; and thorough organization and party
discipline are necessary to insure success
A gathering of ten thousand men without
leaders, assigned positions, or a comprehen-
sion of what is wanted, amounts to nothing;
disciplined, drilled and stationed properly,
it becomes q power. The Republican
party is an organization complete in all its
branches and led by men Of brains and ex.
psriencs, hence its success. Democracy is lit
tie else but rabble, scattered, demsralized
and bowling over dead issues. If the Bsur
bon organs would set about the task of assist
ing to unite the Democratic party, and gather
its forces under some intelligent head, 1t
would do much better by it than continual
bowling against the solidity Of front which
the Republican party continues to present.

TRU UE STORY OF WILLIAM
TELL.

He was captain of an archery club,
and one of the best shots with the bow
and arrow in Switzerland That coun-
try was then under the rule of the tyrant
Gesler. One day Gesler set his plug hat
on a pole for men to salute and ordered
that every man in Altorf should make
obedience to if or die And they did,
every man of them. Even the trees stand
ing around made their best boughs.
Finally Bill Tell came along with his
little boy. He told the men of Altorf
that before he would bow to GesIer's hat
he would 'Altorf and stamp on it. That
was the kind of a bow-an-arrow he was
Gesler arrested him ON the spot, being
marshal of the village as we'll as tyrant,
thus drawing a salary from two offices,
contrary to the constitution Gesler, as
a punishment for his audacitv, ordered
him to shoot an apple off the head of his
boy This he did, although it was
narrow escape for young Tell. The ap-
pie fell, pierced to the core, no encore
being allowed owing to the extreme
lenght of the performance. AS Tell rush
ed forward to embrace his boy another
dropped out of his vest. 'fHa?" cried the
tyrant, wherefore concealest that arrow?"
Replied Tell, pointing to Gesler's head
gear on top of the pole, "To shoot that
hat!'' The joke was so good that Geslre
released him, and gave him twenty dol
lar gold piece.

DEMOCRATIC "IDEAS."
THEY ARE ABOUT AS PLENTY AS HENS
TEETH.
One ofGeneral Garfield's Stump Speeches.

One ofGeneral Garfeld's Stump Speeches.
Every great political party that has
done this country any good has given to
it some immortal ideas that have outlived
in all members of that party. The old
federal party gave great permanent ideas
to this country that are still alive. The
old whig party did the same. Laugh
ter. The party of Andrew Jackson, Ben
ton and Calhoun. But the modern dem
ocratic party has given this country in
the last twenty years no idea that has
lived to be four years old. Laughter
[ mean an idea, not a passion. The
democratic party has had passions that
have lasted longer than that. They have
had an immortal appetite for Office.
Laughter. That is just as strong to-day
as it was twenty years ago. Somebody has
called the democratic party "an organ
lied appetite" Laughter. But that is
not an idea, it is of the belly laughter,
and not of the heart, nor of the brain.
say again, that they have given this
country no great national idea or doctrine
that has lived to be four years old; and if
we had in this great park, as in a great
field, herded here together all the ideas
that the democratic party has uttered and
put forth in the last forty years, there
would not be found four-y -year-old in the
lot Laughter hardly three year old
hardly two year old. They have
adopted a doctrine just to last till election
was over; and, if it did not succeed, they
dropped it to try another; and they
have tried another until it failed, and
then tried another; and it has been a
series of mere trials to catch success.
Whenever they have started in a CAM
paign, they have looked out to all the
political barns to see how the tin roosters
were pointing to learn from the political
weather-cocks which way the wind is like
lv to blow; and then they have made
their doctrines accordingly. Laughter
and applause.

CR1ME.-STEvENs POINT, Wis, August
11.-Dr. E. L. Hogle, of this city, was
shot and instantly killed by DIR. Bennett
at Wausau, last evening. DR.. Hogle is a
dentist of this city, and had gone to Wau-
sau to practice for short time This ev-
identity aroused the jealousy of DR.. Ben
nett, the resident distist, who procured a
shotgun, repaired to Dr. Hogle's office
and murdered him in cold blood. DIR.
Bennett is dissipated man, and was
probably under the influence of liquor
when the murder was committed. DR..
Hogle has resided here for four years,
and, although young man, he enjoyed
a large practice, and, by his strict integ-
rity and honorable dealing, was highly
esteemed in the community. A com
mittee from the A. F. and A. M. Lodge
of this city went to Wausau by the early
morning train, and will return with the
remains this evening.

One of the fashions of the day is for
lady visitors to seaside resorts to carry
pet dogs with them. The custom is so
popular that leading hotels have been
compelled to give notice that guests ac-
companied by dogs will be charged $40
per week for board of the CANNES. This
is not an unreasonable charge if the order.
for dogs breakfast sent by visitor at a
Cape May hotel to the dining room is
sample of the guests demands. This.
person called for tenderloin steak, very
rarely broiled, cold chicken wing and
a pint of new milk, for "dear little Jupi--
