Judge A. j. Edgerton, of Mitchell,
has been to see Pfesi ient.eleot Harrison
upon the subject of Dakota's admission.
He advanced new and weighty reason
for information relative to special 8 sss-
sion Of congress. A correspondent OF
the New York un gives this account Of
the visit:
Judge Edgertou, who went away this
morning after significant visit to the
president-elect, followed by conference
with Private Secretary Hslford at the
hotel last night, put the matter in new
way to Gen. 81 arrison. He urged him at
least to tell whether or not be proposed
to call an extra session because if there
WAS to be such session the Dakota
people coald drop the fight they are
making before the present congress,
which js rather hopeless one OF any
rate. and save all their energies for the
extra session On the other hand Judge
Edgerton argued, il there was not going
to be especial session 1t was no more
than fair that the representatives Of
Dakota should know 1t now, so that they
could concentrate their forces upon the
present congress and get ell they could
out of it. The passage of bill admit.
ting the two Dskotas could
only be secured this session by
q compromise that would be costly
in q party way, bnt il was intimated
that the people OF Dakota were bound
to get in If they could, party or no party.
It is given out semi-offioial that udge
Edgerton's mission was failure SO far
as getting any positive expression from
the president elect was concerned. Gen.
Harrison, it is understood, is anxious to
avoid calling special session il it be
possible, and will put off making his
decision about 1t until the latest moment
He thinks the extra ST ssion might do o
good deal more harm than good to the
party; and as for himself, it would be q
dreadful nuisance to have to bother with
congress before he had got fairly settled
| in the white house and while he was
still besieged by the first rush OF the
Office seekers. Nevertheless, he will moi
hesitate to cell SPECIAL session if the
present congress adjourns leaving &C
| much needed legislation unscted upor
| that the general sentiment of the coun.
try seems to demand that the new con.
gEess be called.

Leland Stanford

We are not inclined to idolize or worship
any man because of his wealth. or the high
position that he may hold politically, for
these things may be purely accidental, ire
spective to which political party he NAV be
affiliated with, or how he obtained his
wealth, so long as it was gained in an hon
orable, business way; but when we do find
the two elements existing in one man. the
press can but do justice to itself in recog-
DiziDg the fact. California may well feel
proud of Hon. Leland Stanford, United
States Senator. His bproad-gauge views
upon all questions has marked him as one
of the few statesmen who are unfortunately
rapidly passing away. The future pros
perity of this Republic depends on suoh
men as Leland Stanford. His wealth is
not bottled. AS philanthropist he is en-.
titled to the encomiums of the entire peo-
pie The poor are his friends. The mag
nihcent donations to and for the benefit of
education is simply wonderful. His i'm
portation of fine stock to California. in the
flrst place gave US reputation that we now
have the finest trotters, runners and PAGERS
in the world. Although one of the biggest
railroad magnates in the world, no one
should envy the Senator California is his
home. The Native Sons and Daughters
should unite with the Pioneers in express
ing unanimous hope that he may long
live to discharge the duties of Senator. And
we only hope he may do something for
this county. as he has for Santa Clara and
Tehama Counties Colusa Daily Gazette.

they want TO go to some part of the Union

do not know what direction to take. Some

toward California
The writer of the letter says his people
are willing to engage in any honest in.
dustry-farming, merchandising, lumber
ing, ditching, grubbing-anythipg that
there may be for them to do.
The supposition is that the colored labor
ers of the South have little or no means to
take with them to new country; but, if
there is any place under the sun where
they can make start with small amount
of capital, it is California Here thew can
work outdoors all the year through. and
land is sufficiently plentiful to enable them
to buy or rent cheaply. Steady, industri-
GUS colored men would find good opportu-
mites to work for Others, and attwo or three
times the wages they receive in the South.
Their present condition is ANYTHING but
satisfactory, and there can be no question
bat that they would be far better off either
in California or the booming Territories of
the Northwest, so soon TO become States.

and never missed. The doctor, fearing to
move, retained his seat. Lee then lowered
the pistol until it was in range of the doc
| tors leg, which was resting on a keg or
barrel, when it was discharged, infiicting a
serious but not necessarily g dangerous
wound. The calls of the doctor and the
report of the pistol drew several passers-b by

and lodged in Jail 10 await the result of the

A ledge of gslena ore from two to four
! feet wide has been recently discovered on

miles south of Bridgeport. Assays as high

over $50. a new mining district has been

There is a greater scarcity of water
throughout this country than was ever be-
| fore known. The waters of the East and
West Walker rivers, several weeks ago,
| failed to reach Smith and Mason valleys,
and the stock in Mason valley began to die
| for the want of water. Many of the ranch
! ers sunk wells, by means of which they
| have succeeded in saving portion of their
| herds. At the earnest solicitation of the
suffering ranchers of the lower valleys, the
ranch and cattlemen of Antelope valley
and the Big Meadows have been turning
the waters used for irrigating their ranches
| back into the river beds, in order to enable
their neighbors in the valleys below to save
