THE CARSON MINT.

The Gold Hill News intimates that
the assayers at the Carson Mint under
values the work of other assayers Of
undoubted reliability and large exper-
fence, for the purpose of showing good
returns and small loss from wastage at
the end of the year. The News states
that bullion producer of Storey
county says he can save money by
sending bullion to the San Francisco
Mint instead of sending it to Carson.
This, the News thinks, explains the
reason why bullion is sent past the Car
son Mint daily to San Francisco.

THE PRESIDENTIAL QUESTION.

The President has appointed General
Murray, of Kentucky, Governor Of
Utah, john T. Morton, of Indiana, Col
lector of Internal Revenue in California;
aud Norman Buck, of Ohio, or some
state contiguous to that favored local
i.y, Associate Justice of Idaho Territory.
Three responsible and lucrative offices
west OF the Rocky mountains have been
filled at once by persons ignorant of
the customs and wants of the Pacific
Coast. Under such circumstances
what encouragement is there for the
people of this coast to shout and vote
Tor an Eastern man for President! All
the lucrative Federal offices in the
States and Territories west of the
Rocky mountains are parceled out to
Eastern men, while there are hundreds
o" old residents of the coast competent
and willing to fill such positions, whose
claims are ignored by the President.
1t is generally conceded that office,
not principle, is the great incentive in
politics nowadays. Those who are
most active as partisans expect to be
rewarded personally for their services.
There is not an issue Of great impor-
tance to the country on which the lead
ers Of either of the two great parties
agree. Some Republicans in Congress
are in favor of rest letting Chinese immi-
grafton, and some Democrats are opposed
to it. The same State of affairs ex-
lists regarding the currency and silver
questions. We have been repeatedly
told by Republican speakers and papers
for several years past, that the Demo
cratic party had adopted the "rag
baby as it's own, yet to-day we find
Bayar'i, who is a prominent candidate
for President on the Democratic ticket,
the most earnest and enthusiastic hard
money man in the Unised States
Senate.
That political parties have little re-
gard for principal, but great desire
for controlling National and State pat
ronage, is shown by their comments
on the louisiana, Florida and Maine
frauds. Republicans, as a rule, approve
the acts of the Board Of Canvassers in
the two Southern StaBes, by which those
who were elected at the polls were
counted out, and denounce a similar
attempt on the part of the Maine Board
Of Canvassers to caunt In those who
were defeated; while Democrats, as
rule, denounce the southern Returning
Boards and attempt to make it appear
that Garcelon and his Council in Maine
did right in following their example.
It is therefore evident that office, not
principle, divides the parties at pres
ent, and, as the powers that be at
Washington, show no disposition to
give the people of this coast the Offices
they are entitled to, would it not be well
for the three Pacific States--Ca.ifornia
Nevada and Oregon-to nominate and
elect independent Presidential electors,
and instruct them to vote for the can
didate who will pledge himself to give
the Federal offices on this coast to res :
dents OF the Pacific Coast?

A motion to instruct for Gen, Grant was
made, but substitute pledglng tho con-

Gov. Cullom was then invited to address
the convention. Thanking them for their
support he said he embraced this opportu
nifty to express his views on the political
questions with especial pleasure. for the
reason that under the circumstances of
his relations to the Repu blicaus of
Illinois it was proper that they
should know his views on public
questions, which he could not convey to
them personally at this time without
uealectiug important official duties To
which party, he asked, can the people of
the country most safely commit their vital
interests? Does the past record of the
Democratic party invite their confidence.
or would its present attitude justify it?
After q review of the action of the Dem
ocratic party in the present Congress in
attempting the virtual repeal or nullifc.-
ton of the acts to euforce the war aneud-
ments. to the Federal constitution, aud
after charging their object to the negative
of all that has been accomplished by the
war of the Union, the Governor exposed
the heresy of state sovereignty. In clos
ing he showed what the state and nation
owed to the Republican party, and pre-
dicted for it victory in the coming contest
and q continued career OF usefulness. The
Governor address was listened to with
close attention and elected frequent
applause. The delegation is divided on
the Presidency, though a majority are
Grant men.
