 Dr. Geo. F. Thornton has just re- turned from Nevada, where he has been for about two months. He has just completed the shipment of 4,0O0 head of cattle from the south ern part of this territory to Nevada, being compelled to do so on account of the drouth. The doctor is an as- pirant for the position of United States Marshal; and if the JOURNAL MINER had the appointing power for this office, he would be the man who would get it. He belongs to the old school of politics, his demo- cracy being as fixed a principle in his character, as his belief in right, as opposed to wrong, but is not of the Obtrusive or offensive kind that objects to others having & different view from him in political affairs. His name is synonynm for honor and integrity and he enjoys the res pect of all who know him. If NIT Cleveland appoints such meu as Ds. Thornton to office, he will certainly have an administration that will command the respect of the country.
