Depend Upon ttome Industry.

Editor CdN-DEAR SIR: PRINT me through
III columns OF your paper to express my views
what consider should be foremost In the
minds OF every citizen OF California. II is the
competing railroad. A committee of we'll
known, honorable men have been appointed as
trustees TO solicit subscriptions for stock. To
whom shall they apply? Surely not 10 the
Eastern or European capitalists, whose only
aim IS 20 make as much as possible on their IN
yestment, 10 do which they would necessarily
advance frelghts and fares, OF mayfair sell out
in the end TO The arch enemy, the Southern Pa
cifc.
Ii is their purpose 10 call upon The California
capitalist, the California merchant. the CALI
fCrnia manufacturer and tile California farmer.
In fact, every dollar required must be sub
scribed In California This The trustees should
impress upon their minds, and when the lime
arrives Tor building The road California should
be given first chaDc.
We have rolling mills capable OF producing
rails; we have car works whose products are
seen on our streets; we have maehiue-shops to
make locomotives; we have foundries for car
wheels; IN fact AN entire railroad could be
butt and equipped wi hout leaving the State.
Truly, II might be said that IL would cost more
TO build 1t here. but when one considers the
beDefi s that would accrue thereby the differ
ence is but trii1e. The citizens, knowing the
money would bs spent here, would subscribe
more literally.
Again, a plan might be effected which would
result In selling a portion of The stock. That
l., III all contracts IL should he stipulated that
payments be made 80 per cent cash and per
cent stock at par value. A CALIFORNIAN.

AVER IS INDIGNANT.
He Insists That He Is the Populist
Nominee for Assessor.

Nominee for Assessor.
c. E. Aver, candidate for the nomination
i,r Assessor on tie POpuists' ticket, is
exceedingly sore that be has not been
accorded that nominate in accordance
with the voIiag at the convention COM
meucing July q last.
In sui fled in the Superior Court yes
terday Aver states that at the convention
in question he stood against Mark Strouse
for the POpuliSi nomination for Assessor,
and receiving 81 votes to Strouse's 6S he
was declared duly nominated. Subsequent
to that date, on September %, he CON-
lains that the mem bers of the convention
met and declared the nomination vacant.
This was done by a nominating conven-
tiOn whose acts Aver describes as unpar-
.iamPDtary aud Illegal. Chairman Chill
strnn. ana Secretary Johnson of that con-
vPntion, he says, exceeded their powers.
Now Aver wants satisfaction for all this.
he demands n injunction against about a
hundred delegates 10 the convention, re-
s'rainirg them from carrying their meas
TT int effect, and compelling them to
accept him as the Populst nominee for As
SCISSOR.
Incidentally, Aver demands $4,000 dam
ages for the wrongs he his suffered.
Presiding Judge Hebbard has granted
An order TO show cause why the injunction
should not issue, and the matter will come
up for hearing before Judge Wallace. 1t
is said That there were numero objections
TO the nomination of Aver, and certain
charges made that caused the nominating

THE CITY ELECTION.

A Light Vote Being POIled-AIE Repub-
Hcans Probably Elected
: "A light vote has characterized the
spring municipal election today, and out
OF a total registration, men and women,
OF 6,693, it is doubtful if more than 4,50U
votes will be cast.
Indications point to big Republican
majorities in all of the five wards, with
the possible exception of the Second.
Here Albert Earnest, the Democratic in
cumbent, is giving Will Stevenson, the
Republican nominee, a hard race. The
Republican workers say the vote il in
Stevenson's favor at the rate of about 8
to 4. The Democrats claim much big
ger margin for Earnest 1t is safe to say
that there will not be a great many votes
to spare either way. Theregistration in
the Second ward is 1926. Out of this
only about $50 had voted up to ) o'clock.
The Santa Fe vote, after working hours,
will no dout change the tide.
I@the Third ward, at 2 o'clock, $50
only had been polled.
The day has been perfect for cam
paign purposes, with the exception of a
wind tritie too breezy to please the fe-
male voters.
