DAN fRANCI5CO, Sept. IS.-heferftng
To the reported sals of the Alta. the
Chronicle says that among the claims

cuted in 1881. upon which $1,000 inter
est had accrued. The claim was allowed
by the Probate Court. The money for
which the note was given was, it states,
advanced by Gov. Stanford and made
payable to the Pacific Improvement
Company. 1t stated that under the
new management 1t will be the sup
porter of the State Democratic Central
Committee and the organ of the party.

SAN FBASoIsco, Sept. 1S.-The New
York Times says that the Alta Caiifor-
nidn, under the proposed purchase by a
group of prominent Democrats of this
city, will support Justice Field for the
Presidency. There is not printers ink
enough On the Pacific Coast to float
StepaenJ. Field or any other California
Democrat over the Rocky Mountains in
the Presidential candidacy. There are
too many Democrats ON this side of the
Rockies who are more po Serful and
have got better start.
