tressed about the criticism of the RECORD

confines itself to the subject of railroad
shops at that city. The silence of the

THE ENDORSED TICKET.

The new Republican City Central Com
mittee of twenty-six has taken vigorous
and right action. All honor to it, and the
brave men who compose it. 1t has done
wisely and we'll. It has Endorsed the Dem
ocratic nominees and thus nominated men
whom we believe as we believe in exist
ence, are free from ring rule; men who
are Independent OF bosses, capable, tried,
of high character, and who stand upon
platform pledging them 10 enforce the lars
as they fnd them upon the statute books. The
Democratic Convention had the courage
to exact this affirmative pledge of its can
didates, and it was a bit of wisdom that
will tell with the people.
The new Central Committee had no
other rational course left open to it but to
indorse, even had it not desired to do so.
For to put third ticket in the field
would be to give the corruptionists the
victory, and defeat the grand aim of the
reorganized city Republican party.
Moreover, the purpose of this whole
movement, which has attracted the atten-
ton of the entire State, and is receiving
the Endorsement of good and true men
everywhere, is, first, to rebuke the ring
masters who have prostituted the Repub-
lican party, and through venal Central
Committee usurped power, and dared to
dictate to its creators; second, to effect
complete local party reorganization.
To accomplish these two ends it is essen
tial above all else to show the bosses that
they cannot deliver the bargained goods
when once the people rise in their ma
jesty.
Again, prime object is to secure good
government in Sacramento-there is no
politics in that. The fire department
must be rescued from the wreckers and
made non-political agency-there is no
politics in that. The police department
must be wrenched from boss domination
and made efficient and non-political, as it
is in all well governed cities-there is no
politics in that Men must be selected
who will enforce the laws-there is no
politics in that.
Elsewhere is published the address of
the new Central Committee. 1t is calm,
strong, unmistakable document 1t has
the ring of patriotism and the tone of
manliness. 1t lifts the whole question up
out of the littleness of the political strife
between parties, into the realm of municipal
wisdom and economy. 1t is a protest
against political autocracy, venality, boss
rule and ring domination. 1t speaks, in
fact, for fair play, a free ballot, an honest
count, enforced laws, safe, Embossed fire
department. free, efficient police force,
and reorganized, purified Republican
party, full armed and equipped for the
coming national struggle.

THE GLASS BALLoT-BoxEs ORDERED

The City Trustees, recognizing the wis
dom and justice of the suggestion of the
RECoRD-UNIoS, yesterday ordered the city
ballot-boxes to be reconstructed and a
strong glass front to be placed in each.
The Trustees are to be commended for this
action. 1t is one step in fair dealing, and
adds to the chances of the people securing
free ballot next Tuesday, and an honest
election and 4 square count. Let the
Trustees, who have thus done so well, do
better still, and bend their energies to
having the election law enforced on the
18th. In the past it has been corruptly
and brazenly ignored and violated in the
interest of the Bosses There is no dis
guising the fact. Such infamies must come
10 an end, if Sacramento is to deserve the
high distinction of city Of homes and
the political seat Of the State of Califor-
MIA. There never will come better time
to begin the work of enforcing the laws
than now

THE NEW CENTRAL COMMITTEE

The Republican party in the city of Sac
ramento is happily reorganized. When a
large body of representative partisans meet
and agree that the party machinery is de-
fective, and resolve that it is no longer rep
resentative of the party, but destructive of
it, reorganization begins.
That was what was done at the Pavilion
Thursday night by seven hundred and
more of representative Republicans of Sac
ramento. They then and there declared
their independence of the late corrupt Cen
trail Committee, and appointed a new one
to take its place. That body of twenty-six
unpledged, courageous, free and independ-
ent men were instructed to continuein exist
ence, and they are now the Republican
Central Committee of Sacramento The
defunct boss committee has ceased to live.
1t has died of corruption, usurpation and
abuse of power. The order of succession
has been broken, and new order has been
instituted, from which all future City Cen
trail Committees must spring.
The new committee will call the next
city primaries and conventions, and the
Republicans of the county will reorganize
and hail their work The machinery of
the party is rescued from the wreckers,
hereafter let it be looked to that REPUBLI-
CANIsM, not vicious bossism, is the control
ling spirit of the party. Let it be under
stood hereafter and forever that Central
Committees are not created to boss and
rule, but to do the will of the party, and
carry out the wishes of the party voters.

POLITICAL REFORM AND VIGILANCE.

To advocate political fair-dealing and
official purity to resist odious bossism and
denounce its methods are not new things
for the RECoRD-UNIoN. 1t has been its
endeavor from its foundation to bring the
people to full realization of the danger
and demoralizing influence of the system.
while the people are slow to anger, the
time comes in every community when it
revolts against robbery of its liberties and
revolution brings it reform. 1t is very
true that in all such revolts some of the
elements that have trained with the rings
and bosses break free from them, and unite
with reform movements. The enemies of
progress in such cases invariably point
with assumed gleefulneSs to this fact, as if it
proved something. The truth is, he is a
fool who, in a political trial, rejects the
aid of helping hand because at one time
it may have been IN partisan opposition
TO him.
There is no distinction between voters in
this republic; the ballot of one counts for
as much as that of another. What polit-
zeal reform movement needs is voting
strength. 1t always must be in the nature
of missionary effort, and always must So
icit and accept help from all voting
sources, rendered legitimately. Let not
the friends of municipal reform therefore
be misled by the silly cry that it is hollow
and a sham, because citizens who once
acted with or under rings have cut loose
from them, and cast their votes for political
freedom.
Neither should men who believe that it
is not essential to wise and economic
municipal administration that venal polit-
ical rings should fatten upon the commun-
ity, be turned aside from plain duty by the
cry that one clique is being broken down
only to build up another. All such decla-
ration comes from the enemy. No friend
of henest and free municipal administra-
ton, political liberty and emancipation
from the bondage of bossism, ever
advances it. 1t is the counsel of Satan
and the specious pleading of those who are
content 10 remain in chains and slavery.
1t may be that reform movement having
overthrow venality and corruption, will
in time be seized upon by political trick
sters and diverted from its purpose. 1t
becomes in sach cases the duty of the peo-
pie to again cleanse the political house
hold and cast out the usurpers of power.
But this does not happen, and cannot hap
pen where the people are vigilant and the
citizens do their political duty. 1t is with
political as with plant life the soil at the
roots must be replenished and strength
ened or the product of growth will lose
vitality and become infested with para
sites. Political reform accomplished, the
results must be nurtured and cultivated
constantly. Enemies of economy are
ever upon the alert 10 fattea upon the
means society employs for its government,

What Women Can Do.

Twenty -fve thousand women have registered Ia
Boston to vote at the coming election; and thous-

than a man, why pay her ten dollars week and

as surely as that a woman can tend baby better
than a man, just so certainly she care for an
animal better; raise flowers and eggs, tend chick
ems etc. A man, living Boston, clears els 900

CALIFORNIA; Peril.

The Los Angeles Times sounds a
note of warning to the people Of
Southern California:
''What is the hief attraction for
tourists in southern California? Our
orchards of oranges and other semi
tropical fruits. What explanation
is offered to eastern people of the
high price of our horticultural lands !!
The possibility of making from $3.50
to $1,000 an acre by growing oranges.
Now, when the white scale finishes
up our last orange orchard-as 1t
soon will, unless checked-what are
we going to offer tourists and immi-
grants? Sheep ranches? They can
see bigger ones and buy cheaper
ones in New Mexico. They need
not leave Chicago to find them. This
is a matter which concerns property
holders as we'll as fruit growers.
They had better attend to it, or some
of their blocks are liable to stand
empty.

The South fought for slavery.
Slavery Is dead. These are bygones.
Nobody wants them to be anything
else. The chasm between the two
sections of our country is bridged.
We of the North ought to know it is
bridged, for we built the bridge our
selves.
But the South fought also for free
trade. Here is what is put into its
constitution ''Nor shall any duties
or taxes on importations from foreign
nations be laid to promote or foster
any branch of industry" The APP
pomattox of April 8, 1865, settled
the questions of slavery and seces-
sion, and those who lost in that set
tlemeut have seen and acknowledged
the wisdom and the humanity of that
decision. Let US make the 9th of
next November the AppomattoX of
free trade. That will end this mat
ter as happily as the other two ques-
lions were ended, and I'VE shall get
the praises of future generations fol
saving our Industries, just as we are
now certain of the praises of world
for plotting out the worst stigma
resting upon the Anglo-SaXOn name.

Personal RecoIlections of the War,
BY MAI. JOSIAH CIRCUIT.

After the surrender of Major An
derson at Sumpter, Mr.. Lincoln is
sued his proclamation for $4,000 men.
This call sounded loudly throughout
the North. 1t touched the hearts of
the people with the wonderful war
spirit. Recruiting became the order
of business in the busy states of the
North and every little village planted
a liberty pole and ran up the flag.
An army began to gather about
Washington, a Massachusetts regi-
ment was mobbed in passing through
Baltimore Ellsworth was killed at
Alexandria and a small battle was
fought at Big Bethel. Thus few of
the early incidents of the war occur
ing in the East bring us to something
more eventful. The Dist of July,
1861, the first battle of Bull Run was
fought disastrously to the Union
arms. The news of this defeat some
what dismayed the North. Vermont
had the second regiment in the battle
and felt keen interest in the result.
The dead of the battle and the hos
pital began to return and were bur-
led with impressive ceremonies. They
came home though for more recruits.

furlough. Soon after this first great
clinch of the war and these early in
dications of what was evidently
ahead, the impression settled down
upon the North that it was more than
a sixty day affair. A very respecta-
BILE army had gathered about Wash
ington and many regarding the Sun
unpleasantness," a mere summers
campaign, raised the cry, son to
Richmond" This onward cry un-
doubtedly precipitated an engagement
which, if it had been delayed for bet
ter preparation, might have borne
different fruit. The battle, though
defeat, had its lesson. 1t united
and strengthened the war sentiment
of the country; it thoroughly reused
the North and determined all that
the rebellion must be put down for
its unmistakable purpose was a dis
memberment of the Union and the
creation of confederacy.
Vermont hurried to the front the
third regiment then ready for the
field and in camp Baxter at st.
Johnsbury. In quick succession it
raised and sent forward the fourth
and fifth regiments. The last of
September, 1861, the cavalry and
sixth infantry were being recruited.

One Week From Tuesday.


The Presidential election occurs
on Tuesday, Nov. 6. We suppose
every voter intends to vote on that
day and it may not be necessary to
urge any to do their patriotic duty
in the great election. The battle be-
tween the parties has been long
and hot one. News papers, public
speakers and the people by and
large, have discussed the great ques-
tons at length, and a great amount
of information has been received In
matters pertaining to the affairs of
government. For the greater part
the political battle has been waged
in good feeling, and whatever the
result it is hoped that the decision
at the polls will be cheerfully ac-
quisced in. We hope the majority
will be such that there will be no
cavil over it.
Here in Vermont there is no ques-
ton how the vote will stand, except
as to majorities. The republicans
will naturally cast large vote, ow-
ing to the popularity of their can
didate and the interest taken in the
great question of protection. The
democrats will poll their votes, with
perhaps, some little falling off. The
prohibitionists will probably be out.
Their enthusiasm holds out pretty
well, Notwithstanding the result of
the September election. We hope
that Vermont will cast 10000 votes
in this election. Remember the day,
and cast your votes as your con
science dictates.
