IN THIS COUNTY.

What reason, addressing the intelligence
of men, can be advanced against the can
didacy of the Republican nominees for the
Legislature in this county? Let us see :
F. r. Dray, the nominee for the Senate, is
q man thoroughly representative of the
people, and with every sympathy quick to
publicwants and responsive to every manly
and humane impulse He is Unidentified
in every particular with Sacramento's best
interests. He has, with high credit, filed
offices of public trust; his character is
beyond the shadow of reproach, and his
ability is backed by two of the best ele-
ments of manliness - perfect fearless
ness and practical common sense. He has
no concealments to make, no excuses to
offer, no phases in his life that may not be
laid open to severest scrutiny. What
reason can be offered by any citizen against
The representative character of this man,
whose word is the equivalent of bond,
and against whom not even the suspicion
can be suggested of subserviency to any
improper influence.
L. S. Taylor, for the Assembly, is a citi-
zen thoroughly well-known. A man of
fine legal ability, of irreproachable char
acter, lawabiding and peace-loving; thor
oughly informed as to Sacramento's needs,
z tried and stanch Republican, free from
any and all entangling alliances, compe-
tent, humane firm for the right and hating
all manner of wrong. He will command
The respect of the House and reflect credit
upon his constituency.
Seymour Carr has served his county
with honor in the Legislature. He is a
representative farmer, identified with all
4yricultural interests, 4 man of strict in
tegrity, fir-seeing, practical and free from
every pledge, except to the right in all
things.
H. w. Carroll is of Sacramento growth,
. representative young man; genial,
broad-minded, sympathetic, with all
manly and pure purposes, untram-
meled, and of that high per
sonal character that makes young man
hood the promise for the faithful keeping
of the trusts time must commit to young
men. He is product Of our common
school system, graduate of the States
University, and to scholarly ability adds
some years of practical business expert
ence
Here, then, is ticket for the Legisla-
ture commanding the respect and conf
dence of the people. We have nothing to
say against the character of the Demo
cratic nominees. They are respectable
citizens, but in aggregated ability and
representative character the group cannot
begin to compare with the delegation the
Republican ticket offers The latter, il
elected, goes into the Legislature free and
unpledged to men or doubtful measures
the Democratic delegation, on the con
trary, if elected, must cast its vote for the
influence behind it and that has but one
chief end to accomplish, the foisting OF
George Hearst-the recorded opponent OF
the Sacramento valley and all its best
interests-upon the United States Senate.
Let Republicans rally to the support OF
their own candidates, eschewing the
sophistries and allurements of the pessim-
lists who have devised side-shows to divide
Republican strength, and which will result
only in playing into Democratic hands,
with imminent danger OF transferring the
Federal Government wholly to a Dem
ocracy that in the hour Of trial proved
recreant to It's trust
