Organized Effort Being Made TO Render
1t Assistance.
During the week a telegram received in
this city announced the destitute circum-
stances of the widow and family of the late
General Fremont. Yesterday Judge Silent
of Los Angeles, to whom the telegram was
addressed, arrived in this city, end he, in
an interview last evening, reaffirmed the
n ews, which to many was a surprise.
Yes" said he, Mrs. General Fremont
and her daughter are in a really destitute
condition. Their immediate needs are be-
ing met by their friends at Los Angeles, but
that must necessarily be temporary. The
ladies Of that city have organized to aid in
the work, and they nave appointed CON-
mittee OF five, Of which Mrs. Senator j. p.
Jones is Chairman, to devise ways and raise
the means for the future.
"They propose to interest in behalf of
the Fremont family the Pioneers and Native
Sons, more especially the Pioneers, who are
expected to take the matter up and provide
for their condition. The family deserves
every assistance. Mrs. Fremont is daugh-
ter Of Senator Benton of Missouri, the author
of Thirty Years in Congress- He it was
who first spoke of transcontinental rail
road, long before others dreamed OF it, and
he interested his son-in-law. General FIRE.
mont, in the scheme to the extent that he
devoted many of his years and much of his
money to it. Besides, General Fremont was
the inspirer of the resolution ia acquire Cal
itornIa from Mexico. and as such has figured
in the real history of this State enough to
endear him and his to every citizen"
When the matter was first spoken of sew
eral days since. the Native Sons, at least
few Of the most prominent Of their order,
were interviewed. They all disfavored
action looking toward assistance and said
that the Pioneers first and the Legislature
or the people at large afterward should do
it. Among the latter they would join in in
diydual effort.

PERPLExED DEMOCRATS.
Candidates Who VIII Run as Buckley
AIiaaes-Mhere Is Pond?

Candidates Who VIII Run Buckley
Aliases-Where Is Pond?
But little interest appears TO be taken by
the Democrats as to who will be nominated
for the local offices. 1t is conceded by all
weIl-informed members of the party that
Boss" Buckley will name the entire
ticket from Mayor to Justice Of the Peace.
Not only will he select the candidates who
will be placed before the people for their
franchises but he will also pledge all the
nominees to turn over to him the patronage
Of their offices in case they should by any
mysterious turn In the wheel OF pOlltlcal
fortune be elected.
This condition of affairs is particularly
eXasperating to the younger and more am
bilious members of the party. One OF the
latter class, referring to the situation, sad;
Yes, was Il candidate for nomination,
but | am not now. In the first place,
nomination can only be secured through
Buckley, and even if n man should be
elected after thus degrading himself he
would have nothing but an official title, Tor
the Boss would control all TIE patronage.
As matters now stand, every name placed
on the Democratic ticket viii simply be an
alias for Buckley. 1t is the Boss who Will
run for each ana every office, and he, as the
Democratic Gar, simply comedies certain
members of the party the privilege OF see
ing their names on the ballots in conSldera-
ton of their paying share OF his campaign
EXPENSES No, | am not a candidate this
year, and in fact | do not think it IS good
year for Buckley Democrats
Another question that is pulling the
Democrats is CANDIDATE Ponds sudden de-
velopment of immaculate qualities OF states
mimshp. 1t is a fact, and one that no at
tempt has ever been made to deny. that
candidate Pond owes his nomination 10 the
mauipula;ions OF Boss Buckley from the
latter's throne erected temporarily IN a SIDE
room Of the san Jose Convention. From
this SIDE room the party dictator Is
sued his orders and the result was the nonli-
nutiol of Pond. Now candidate Pond, "ho
mQuesti nably is as mild hammered man
as ever ran Tor Office or shaved vote, has
the cOugeI.ing ASSUMPTION to claim that he Is
better than the party who gave HIM the
nomination for Governor. Democrats how
ever, are asking if he is superior to his poll
teal Great r now can he represent the
Buckley Democrats? If. on the other hand,
candidate Pond represents the Buckley party,
how can he repres Mt the til rs OF Cali
fornia and good COVE nment? In short, IS
candidate Pond better than his party?
