He Says He Could Have the Nomination
If He So Desired.
Governor Waterman has broken out in a
new place. He has just been interviewed
at San Diego, and is quoted as saying:
g am not asking the nomination, but
feel confident l could get it if l SO desired.
My business interests are too extensive,
and l am preparing to spend large amount
of money in San Diego County"
"Who is your candidate tor Governor,
Mr. Waterman"
Wen, l don't mind telling you. My
choice is General Chapman of Red Bluff.
He Is as tne man as there Is IN the State
and has war record second only to General
Grant. He was brave soldier and lay all
night in his own blood upon the battlefield
for his country. He would make California
an excellent Governor"
1t is evident the Governor has not yet
heard from the primaries In Los Angeles,
San Bernardlno and San Diego counties.

platform. The first speaker WAS Mr.. Miller,
who said he understood the Pioneers would
help tue Native Sons, hand in hand, like
father and son, in the celebration of Ad-
mission Day, ana he hoped that he had
not been misinformed.
Mr.. Chamberlain explained that the
spokesman Tor the occasion was Mr.. Dorm,
whom he called to take his place. Mr.. Dorm
SAID he was not afraid to look all the Pio-
neers straight In the eye and tell them that
they must help the boys. He was not
afraid to leave the affair in their hands, ana
assured them that they would not be in
VOWED in any expense, for the citizens
would be liberal enough 10 provide suf-
fcient money for the celebration. He did
not want any banquet; lie wanted the Pho
neers to join with fhe Native Sons in the
celebration and testify to the world what
California is by seeing the founders of the
state march al the head oil the procession.
A communication was read from l.. j.
Hardy Jr, Secretary Territorial Pioneers
OF California. and was as follows:
The Territorial Pioneers OF California, an as
sociailon composed of pioneers who arrived in
California prior TO September 9, 1850. feeling

X. z. Hammond Jr. then proposed that
the Pioneers allow their name to be used in
connec ton with the celebration Of Admis-
sion day by the Native Sons of the Golden
west, and on motion the proposition was
heartily accepted
Mr.. Daniels again read his resolutions to
appoint committee to confer with the
Native Sons of the Golden West in order
that the Pioneers may participate in the

why the thing has cotton so still, ali
at once?
LATER:-The gentlemen from Dur
ham came up again Saturday morn
ing and a meeting was called, at
which $31, 900 was subscribed. 1t was
decided that it would be best to open
the Bank and begin business at an
early date, and let other stock come

About Taxing Bachelors.

As there are good many bach
elers in and around Durham. we
copy the following from the Char
lotte ''Chroniclen:
According to the Omaha Bee,
there is a proposition before the
Wyoming legislature to impose d
tax on bachelors. The Bee says.
Wyoming has the distinction Of
beingthe only section Of the country
where the right Of suffrage is en-
joyed BY both sexes. Women have
all the rights they want, and they
exercise them with decided effect.
Their influence j felt in the Legis-
l;tures. A bill has been introduced
to bring both sexes into close, har-
monious relations II il proposed
to tax al men over the age ofthirty
years who are not married. In 9TH
er words, those who enjoy the lux
ury of batchelorhood must pay forit
or marry. AT present there are more
men than women in the Territory;
consequently the measure will stimu-
late immigration and create lively
fiutter among the retired maldens of
the East"
The Chronicle" adds: "A tax on
bachelors would, doubtless, be bet
ter than tax on marriage, such as
is imposed IN many States of the
Union, including North Carolina.
The proceeds from the bachelor-tax
might be turned in annually to 4
fund Tor the benefit Of manned and
