comosny OF this enormous sum that makes
the money market easy l.. Sacramento. When
other cities have been distressed and have
complained OF the scarcity of coin. this
monthly stream of dollars poured iy the
| railroad company into our city has prevented
the stringency affecting us--hss given our
! merchants ard business men copst mt and
assured source of supply.
Now l submit TO you il az institution
which INDUCES so largely ia manufactures as
that which has 1,913 employees residing
| in this city, whose employees aie
assessed for two-6fths of the total as.
sessaole value of this city, which expeads
every month in this city Sl56 0O0, nearly 81
600 600 year, is not entitled st least TO be
| treated decantly and fairly by the psople OF
Sacramento. / ask you il we have any occa-
sion or desire 10 make war upon it, merely IN
order that certain ambitious men may obtain
office.
La addition to the shops now ia Sacra-
mento, the railroad company has already
broken ground for two additional shops. and
| contemplate erecting still more. 1t is also,
| al | understand theic intention to make
early preparations for filing up China slough,
| that nov Expresses us.
| Whan the Company is thus aiding in the
progress and development Of our city, Is j.
| wise, prudent CT right for Us to abuse, malign
and injure thsm? Is it not better to be at
| least dscently friendly to and careful of an
institution that assists Sacramento go greatly
st the present. and Is willing aod proposes 10
assist us still more in the near future?
| The merchants of this city have no occa-
| sion to find fsuiG with the railroad comp tny.
! They csn send their goods to any poiC5 in the
| northern part Of tais State cheaper than
| wholesale merchants in San Francisco eau.
| And the wholesale merchants OF San Fran
| cisco can rot and do not compete successfully
with the wholesale merchants OF Sacramento
| by reason Of the privileges awarded TO the
| Sacramento firms and the difference on the
| freight given by this railroad company, that
some mea would have rs injure without
cause.

STATE AND CONGRESSIONAL NOMINEES.
While l do not and Will not indorse those
particular parts Of the platform, l most
| heartily indorse the nominations made by the
| Republican State Convention, and will do all
| in my power TO secure the election OF the en-
tire Republican State ticket. They are all
good men. They are all men that deserve
| veil of the people. They are all men that
have the ability to perform the duties Of the
offices for which they are candidates, and
have the courage 90 fAithfully execute those
duties, and will transact their business in
such m@nner a. "a ref scS credit upon you
and upon them. l i-doIse them all heartily
and l in+3ocsa most heartily The Congress innal
| nominations. l viii ask you, at the lisk Of
taking up too much of your time, to briefly
beac wien ss wai!e ] compare on the one
hand W. w. Morrow, our candidate for Con-
gress, with his Democratic opponent, John L.
Giascock, of Alameda. MIR. GlascocG.
seaius st whom J. have Lothilg TO say person

public life, o man whose whole career has
been that Of OF e who simply skins on the
surface Of public events. His speech IN this
city, which / listened to attentively, stamped
him as Que of those sophomorical men, who
simply b1zZ srouud on the outside OF propo-
sitious Gad never gets down to the kennel.
Oa the other hand We have Mr.. Morrow, q
