brought by this law firm against Markham, in
which EsG. Hallock was plaintiff, Judgment
of S1,50) was obtained, which judgment has not
as yet been satisfied. If there had been no
fraud, no robbery of partners, how could q
judgment have been obtained? Why being I'M
| satisfied may arise from the fact that there is
nothing tangible held in the defendants name
wherewith to satisfy judgment, whatever the
amount might be.
9. The Hon. Stephen NJ. White in 1884. in the
Los Angeles Democrat, published a bitter and
denunciatoTy letter against H. II. Markham,
charging him with fraud dishonesty, and de-
frauding his partners, and urging upon the peo-
pie not to vote for Markham for the reasons set
forth in his letter, and which were neUer denied.
Mr.. White also charging him with not register
ing as voter of the State until 1881
10. Markham is in favor of a division of the
State, which, outside of every other considera-
ton, should defeat him in his aspirations for a
Gubernatorial nomination before the Republi-
can State Convention which organization is
emphAtIcally representative of opposition to
| secession, of whatever nature and kind it may
be, and particularly in connection with the
States of the Union.
IL. he mas DeeU guilty OF u gross ueceptlOu 10
his party followers and those who have enlisted
in his behalf in the fact that while ostensibly a
candidate for Governor. he proceeded to Wash
ington about six weeks since, saying he was
| making the journey in the interest of the Veter-
aus Home at Santa Monica, but instead he then
| and there presented himself as candidate for
| Appraiser. General as against his friend II. z.
| Osborne, of the Los Angeles Express, which
! journal was making gallant fight for him, and
with his Markham 81 full knowledge and Goa
| sent, was through Hon. William Vandever,
| member of Congress from the Sixth Congress
| sional District the gentleman who, in obedi-
ence to the demands of his constituents of Los
| Angeles, introduced bill into Congress favor
| ing a division OF the State, presented to the
President of the United States, for the
| position named; failing to secure it, he
returned to California and re-entered the
lists for the Gubernatorial nomination. Had
this dishonorable trickster RETAINED from
| taking part in the Appraiser contest, Mr. Os
borne would have received the appointment.
II. A suit is now pending in the United States
| Circuit Court at Los Angeles, brought by the
| law firm of Lee, Wells g. Guthrie, in the name
of John P. Sanborn vs. H. H. Markham, C. H
Bradley, E. P. Johnson Walter Vandever, S. +.
Raymond and the San Gabriel Valley Land
| Company, for an accounting, on the ground Of
conspiracy between Markham and one Burbank
| to rob- defraud and swindle. the amount fol
which the suit has been insti uted being o.
900. The complaint being very lengthy cannot
be used here now, but the records of the Court
and an appeal to the law firm interested will be
the means of securing the required informa-
ton.
| These objections to the nomination of Mark
ham are not personal by any manner of means,
but entirely in the interest of the Republican
party, and II no other consideration should
prompt the party leaders and advisers not to
permit his nomination, the mere fact that every
Democrat in the State. backed by the great and
strong support of the Examiner, their leading
politicalorg being strong in his favor, should
be sufficient to prompt them to look before they
leap. The Democratic party, through individ
uals and their organs, are making Markham
| fight. and he seeking Republican nomi-
nation from Republican organization
for the high position of Governor of
the State. No man. however promi.
nent he may be, has a claim upon his party FOL
| consideration. NJ man. whatever his services
may have been, has right to demand recogni
ton from his party or to receive one ot or title
more OF political consideration than his party is
willing to give him; and hat section of the
State demanding place and power by reason OF
such sectionalism should be stri ken from the
map of party boundaries. There are two promi
nent considerations that prompt men to become
paritzans. First, the principles represented in
the association; the last for the gathering of po
litical loot. The man who represents political
principle from purely disinterested standpoint
is worthy of the highest consideration: the one
| who sleeps when the sea is calm and only
| awakens when he hears the roar of the break
ers and sees the swift drifting wreck making its
way through the troubled waters and is rejoiced
in the fact there is wreckage in 1t for him. Is
more deadly than a caneerous growth, the latter
consuming time in its fearful effect, while the
former simply strangles the victim off-hand
Let the Republican state Convention stamp its
foot solidly down upon the repulsive form 1.-THE
polite II wrecker. and let it uphold the prin-
Clip es for which Lincoln died. seward bled and
Grant led his victorious forces TO II lintain. Ii
