The new station of the railroad company
at Cedar Flat is upon soil similar to river
sediment or slickens, ard is likely to be a
mud-hole in winter and a dusty place in
summer. There is no good place, how
ever, for side-track room further north
until Strawberry valley is reached, which
the company claim they will reach by No
vember LIST. Just below Cedar Flat, at
Castle Rock, much better place is afforded
for a station than at Cedar Flat.

SIGNIFICANT CORRESPONDENCE.

In the face of the fact that the Revolu-
tionists held their demonstration yesterday
in front OF the Russian Consulate at Phil
ippopolis, the words of Prince Alexander
in his address to the Car, on resuming his
seat, read as bitter sarcasm Sire,
thank your Imperial Majesty for the ac-
ton of your Consul at Rutschuck, whose
official presence at my reception showed
the Bulgarians that Russia did not approve
of the revolutionary act directed against
my person"
He then proceeds to thank the Gar for
sending Dolgouroki as envoy to Bulgaria,
and to promise, with apparent fervor, to
make every sacrifice to forward Russia's
magnanimous intention to extricate Bull
garia from the crisis through which she is
passing" 1t may be that the Prince is
sincere in all this, and in what he pro-
nounces his unalterable devotion to your
august person. and that he really stands
ready to surrender his crown to Russia at
her bidding, as he AYERS. But if so, he
will fall to zero in the opinion of the world
at large, and must expect England and
Germany to desert his cause His address
is cringing, mental and humiliating. If
it is not sarcasm and Insiucerity, then the
Prince is not the gallant fellow that has
been supposed. The reply of the Gar is
bitterly cold and full Of vengeful meaning.
lie very plainly tells him that he has no
more use for him, and he must hold him
self in readiness to stand aside. . / can
rot approve of your return to Bulgaria"
That is to say, the Car was privy to his
expulsion. reserve to myself to Judge
what my fathers venerated memory, the
interests Of Russia and the peace of the
East require of me-" Which means: |
shall not just now interfere, but will pres
emily put puppet upon the throne of
Bulgaria who will not venture upon any
Independent action. The dispatches an
nounce that this caustic correspondence
has created great excitement in Paris,
where the Cars reply is interpreted to
mean that he will speedily occupy Bulga-
ria. In that event war will be inevitable,
and Germany will certainly be arrayed
against its recent ally.

The Gubernatorial situation tonight is
extremely complicated. 1t is believed gen.
orally that Reddy's vote cannot be largely
increased. The lobbies and approaches to
the hall and the galleries were packed this
afternoon in Reddy's interest, and every
effort put forth to increase the boom for
him. The claquers were not content
with loud and prolonged applause, but
every time his name was mentioned they
constantly ran from applause to Three
cheers hip hip for Pat Reddy," and
ended with from one to four long tigers.
This was carried to such an extent as to be
nuisance, and if repeated tomorrow, as it
probably will be, will initiate to his deri-
Governor will probably be quite
significant. It would seem to stand
between Bartlett and Berry, unless
other candidates are brought in. :" Bart
lett" in the call Of first ballot, was
warmly responded TO constantly by dele
gates on the floor, instead of by outside
whoopers-up, as in Reddy's case. Bryant's
name will be either Withdrawn upon reas-
sembling, or dropped after one or two more
votes, and his supporters will not go TO
Reddy, but probably to Bartlett, or they
may 90 to Berry. Tarpey cannot be nomi-
mated but his supporters will continue
voting for him three or four ballots at least
if SO many are taken, and then will he
more likely 10 go to Bartlett than else
where Los Angeles votes, now mostly
given to Reddy, will no doubt go to Bartlett.
Thus far from all points of the outlook it
would seem that Bartlett is leading in
position, with Berry a vigorous second
All this may, however, change before to-
morrow's sun. Very little talk about nomi-
nees for other offices is heard. Everybody
is figuring about and discussing the head

THAT was strange scene yesterday at
Philippopolis. The partisans of Prince
Alexander thronged the city and held an
enthusiastic celebration of his return to
power, in front of the British Consulate.
At the same time the Reyolutionists held
a meeting, declaring against Alexander,
in front of the Russian Consulate. Most
significant were these contrasting demon
strations. They very clearly indicate
what will be the issue and who the
parties in the threatened struggle for power.

KINDNESS TO ANIMALS. = Every one
should know that kindly-treated animals
will do their best for their owners. &
curious case happened recently, which may
be given Us an example. A noted trotter
was driven in race by strange driver.
The horse was evidently dissatisfied and
lost two heats. The old driver knew the
horse could do better, and begged the owner
to be permitted to drive him. His en-
treaties prevailed, and when he mounted
the sulSy the horse whinnied with pleas
ure, and won the next three heats with
ease, making such a record that the owner
had an offer of $4,000 for the animal. II
is always thus. A farm-h horse kindly treat
ed will do more work than one not at
taehed to the owner or driver. a COW will
lose milk when attended by strange or
disagreeable person, and one that is petted
aud treated with gentleness will never ex-
hibit the common fractiousness of kicking
or holding CD the milk. This is true of all
farm animals, who return kindness with
affection and generosity, and abundantly
repay the consideration shown by their
owners. Every boy, especially ever farm
er's boy, should early learn to treat all
animals with kindness.-44HleTicdn FdrmeT

by the people in all political assem- blies,
We ask this Convention TO declare for the
primary system of selecting delegates to all
Conventions of the Democratic party in

County Committees naming Representatives
thereto; and further. that it is the duty of
every County Committee to carry out the
work and policy of the Convention which
creates il that the functions of every such
committee should therefore be limited to
such work, and that its tenure of Office
should expire at the moment every new

AT the late hour Of this writing no
critical review of the platform of the
Democratic Convention can be made. It
appears to have been planned upon the
scheme of raking muck heaps, in many
respects. What sense or reason is there,
for instance, in presenting a platform to
contrast with that of the Republicans, in
dragging in the high license question
That is not, nor has it been, party issue
So, too, the mean attempt-and no other
word will answer-to prejudice the case of
Mr. Swift in the minds of the ill-informed
by demanding the repeal Of the "Swift "
treaty with China, i'll becomes party that
claims so much as does the Democracy.
The Democrat who penned that plank was
mendacious, for he clearly intended to
have the reader understand that Mr.. Swift
had negotiated treaty with China mimi
cal to the anti-Chinese sentiment. The
fact is, Mr.. Swift's anti-Chinese position
has never before been questioned. He
was placed upon the Commission to China
expressly to represent the anti-Chinese
sentiment of the Pacific coast, and his ap-
pointment and his labors on the Commits
sion were universally approved. Are we,
after all, to get the opening campaign
down into the mud of lies, deceit, innuendo
and vulgarity?
