The Republicans of this city will open

| quite enthusiastic. Colonel Markham is
accompanied by Hon. H. " Morehouse OF
| Santa Clara, an eloquent and entertaining
| speaker, who will also address the meeting
| tonight.
The local managers of the party have
made all necessary arrangements to tender
Colonel Markham warm reception in this
city. He will arrive this forenoon by the
| Marysville train, and will be met al Rose
vile and escorted here by committee con-
sisting of W. ]. Davis, Joseph Sieffens and

party will be received by the members of

corted by a torchlight procession of or
ganized clubs to the State Capitol, in front

| do not belong to any of the clubs, but who
would like to take part in the parade can

Band. Cheerful Workers, Lincoln Club
| (colored), Fourth Ward Club land citizens),
and the Mckenna Mounted Guard.

torches in the parade, and there will be a
