AN ASSEMBLY DELEGATION.

Hatfield, Brusie and Butler in the AS
gembly will give Sacramento a House
delegation of experience, ability and
shrewdness. We need all those qualities
In the House at all times. Sacramento
cannot afford to be represented by mex
perienced men and those who have not
had the fitting out of education, knowl-
edge of the laws and of parliamentary
procedure, and who have not the bearing
TO command respect from other delega-
tions.
Take the Democratic nominee in the
twenty first District, for instance; what
qualification has he as a legislator? With
out experience, having had no career
as publicist, his latest exploits having
been in open resistance to the laws of his
country, having never filled any position
of trust or responsibility, is not this youth
flying too high at the outset of his politi-
cal career?
For Mr.. Vice to presume to offer him
self as a law-maker we submit is cool
eitrontery. Opposed to this nomination by
the Democracy, which insults Sacramento
by offering one so unrepresentative, as
II anything is good enough for this city
as an Assem- blyman, is the nomination of
the Republican party in the person of
Mr.. Hatfield, a man of high character,
knowledge of the law, experience, and of
all nominees the most truly publicist
and man of affairs. Can it be possible
that voters of the Twenty-first District
will hesitate moment as between two
such men?
So, too. in the cases of Mr.. Brusie and
Mr.. Butler. One has twice served in the
Legislature. has skill as a lawmaker. is
young, ambitious, and of fine delivery,
while Mr.. Butler is one of the foremost
men of the rural section: man steady.
firm, clear-headed, good reasoner and
talker, of irreproachable character, es-
teemed as are the few only. and in every
sense a representative man, one who has
taken lively interest all his useful life
in whatever conserves the public good.
That Sacramento needs a first-class
delegation in the House is conceded; that
the Republican ticket fills the bill is
simple truth. That there are opposed to
it no nominations of equal merit is also
true. In this connection we quote as
sound advice the words of a contemporary
in an adjoining county:
1t is altogether too frequently the case that
when man has made failure OF attending
TO his own business lie deems himself partic-
ularly well qualified to attend TO the peoples
business He insists on running for office
No voter has any business with a ballot in his
hand unless he has sense and conscience
enough to use it with discretion. Prefer the
man tor public service whom you Womb
select for your own private agent, should you
need him.

CAMPAIGN LIE NAILED.
a San Francisco Paper Makes an
AnOIooV

"a san TFdHciscO Iapcf Makes an
Apology.
From the San Francisco Post, October 9th.I
When it was stated by the Examiner
that NJ. NJ. Estee had borrowed money
from the late Senator Stanford and that
he was, therefore, bound TO the railroad,
the P0St quietly pointed out our colem-
porary'S error, and stated that time
would prove the falsity of the story. This
morning the Ecdnlille1 says:
Russell j. Wilson, who has charge of
Mrs. Stanforps business, SAYS that tho
late Senator Stanford did not leave among
his assets a note for s., 900 drawn bv
Nj. NJ. Estee. fhe statement that there
was such note has been published at in
terVals for nearly year, and as no denial
was ever made by Mr.. Estee the Ecam-
1Itef believed 1t was true, and commented
on 1t IN recent editorial. AS there was
no actual foundation for the criticism, an
injustice was done to Mr.. Estee for which
we tender him an apology, and can as
sure him that we are as sorry for the error
as he could be annoyed at the unjust
charge"
The slander was started by menda-
clous interior paper, from which has en-
anated the largest number of lies upon
tne Republican candidate ever launched
III any campaign. Will that sheet now
initiate the manly example of the EraDl-
tneI and print a retraction? viii every
interior paper which, during the past
two months. has rehashed this lie. now
retract it? Here is chance for some de-
cent journalism.

CARDINAL GIBBONS has announced his
opinion as adverse to the claims of the
woman suffragists, because instead of
purifying politics he is convinced that
women would be contaminated by them.
He holds, also, that the sphere of woman
is sufficiently large to engage all her best
energies without entry into the political
field. The Cardinal is quite right. But
we pity him-he will from this time on
have his hands full in responding to the
protests of women who are anxious to be
reconstructed.

DAVIS, a Populist member of Congress,
introduced House bill 3,436. What does
the reader think it was? Something, of
course, in line with the loud professions
of the party IN the matter of reform and
economy. This is what the bit of idiocy
really proposed: ANY defauIting mort
gage debtor is declared bankrupt, and
his creditor may collect from the United
States, the Government taking the mort
gage. The debtor may redeem, how
ever, in twenty years, paying the annual
interest charge of one per cent. To pro-
vide the funds necessary for carrying out
this Act, legal tender treasury notes are
to be issued from time to time. as re-
quired."

A PROMINENT newspaper apologies
for libeling prominent candidate in this
State because the story had been much
repeated, the candidate did not deny it,
therefore it was assumed to be true. Ex-
actly! That is the logic of the sensa-
tional press always. Charge man with
wrong doing: then if he does not prove
it to be untrue, if he chooses to hold his
peace and keep out of newspaper contro-
versy, treat him as guilty. That is the
argument Of the cutthroat and the bully;
1t is the logic of the rascal and the thief
OF character. Said a distinguished citizen
not long ago 10 US, ST never enter denial
Of anything charged against me in the
press" Being asked why he adopted
that course he replied, "For two reasons.
First, 1 am too busy a man to give time
to denial of lies. and each denial breeds a
new crop of falsehoods. My life must
stand me in hand for reputation against
the improved libel. Secondly, the press
has so largely, and to its own discredit,
adopted the policy of assuming silence to
be confession of guilt, that it has become
the vehicle for all the blackmailers in the
land and every gossip who hears story.
1t appears to have departed from the true
policy of verifying first and then pub
lishing." The error of this distinguished
jurist was in including all the press in
his verdict. Thank heaven, there are
journals which conceive it to be precisely
as wrong to print an unverified charac-
ter-destroying story as TO rob the victim
OF his worldly goods.

THE Republican party has presented
as nominee for Sheriff-one of the most
important in the whole list Of positions
tried man, one who has been faithful,
competent county official, and has never
betrayed trust or deceived friend. He
is a native of Sacramento, is known to
this people for honesty, manliness, kind
illness, firmness and fair dealing. If
there is single good reason that can be
advanced why Frank T. Johnson should
not be elected Sheriff, we have failed to
hear it, even from his several opponents.
AS for the incumbent in the Office,
Sheriff O'Neil, he has not been what he
should have been, in all respects. As
suredly when the time came for the
doing, he was wanting. Had Sheriff
O'Neil been firm and have done his duty
in the early hours of the late strike,

astray by his weakness and misinter-
pretation of duty. would have been
spared heavy loss, humiliation and re-

this Just criticism, had he not developed
this dangerous weakness, he would still
be no match for Frank Johnson in the

THIS is what the Populist party pro-
poses, if it is permitted to put it's foot in
the trough, according to Congressman
Loud, who has had fine opportunity to
study the plans of the leaders:
ALI Custom Houses are to be abolished, and
taxation TO be direct upon the individual;
every man to have what he wants, regardless
of the wants OF the rest; each and every indi-
ViduaI to be fed upon the bounty Of a pa
ternal Government; the promised land to be
located in the United States; all to be happy
under the fostering care of q great Bellamy

The subscription ballad concert under

this morning at Purnell's, and that order
remains, although il is full week in ad-
vance of the concert. Subscribers and
the public may, therefore, reserve this
morning. An exceptional array of for
eign talent has been secured tor the con-
cert. Mrs. Eva Tenny, soprano leggiefo,
an excellent concert singer, as well as an
operate soprano of tirst-class reputation:
Mrs. olive Read -Batchelder, conceded in
