THREE YOUNG MEN.

The three young men nominated for
the Assembly by the Republican party
Stand for the best young manhood of
tho county. They are native to Cali
fornia, have passed their lives in this
immunity and were educated in our
schools. They have arrived at man
hood without reproach, and with I'M
blemished characters. They are clean
men in the fullest sense of the term.
They are business men, full of vigor
and spirit, animated by honorable am
bition, and inspired by devotion to the
interests Of the county and the State.
They will each vote for Republican
for the United States Senatorship. A
vote against any one of them may be
the turning point that will enable
Thomas V. Gator to disgrace the State
by becoming it's United States Senator.
Vote for Ennis, Sims and Lovdal.

BEWARE OF HALF-BREEDs.

The Independent Republicans" so
called, announced at their Friday night
meeting that they are about to cast off
the name Republican and go it alone an
other time. Do it, men, do it! Throw
off the sleeps skin, and come out in
your true colors as opponents Of the
party, the principles Of which you have
SO loudly professed to admire and sup
port When you switched off we knew
1t to be a mere pretense and the sooner
you sail under true colors the better.
Let voters beware Of these half breed
Republicans who solicit votes on all
sides. and have no politics that any
one can discover or that have been an

LOOK TO THE SENATE.

A vote against Judson c. Brusie may
ilnperil the choice Of a Republican
United States Senator. Can we afford
to take any such chances? Mr.. Brusie
has twice served the people Of this
county in the Legislature, and once the
people of Amador County. In each
case he proved to be efficient, and left
the House free from reproach or charge
of the ways of legislation peculiarly fit
him for the office to which the Repub
lican party has nominated him. In adj
dition, he is a finished speaker, a skilled
arliamentarian, quick Of intelligence
and clear of perception.

The opposition does not weary Of its
clatter about intimidation, coercion and
browbeating of voters by Republicans.
Now, who believes that all the virtue
is embraced by one party and all the
viciousness by another? Who is there
who pauses for a moments thought
that does not realize that the cry or
coercion is a political trick? Where

'PUBLIC BEGGARS.O

Mr. Bryan calls workin gmen and
skilled artisans who believe that the
Industries of America should be pro-
tccted by tariff laws public beggars"
The proof of that characterization is
not to be denied. The occasion was a
session of the House Ways and Means
Committee in September, 1893. The
place Washington. A commute Of the
Window Glass Workers Association
appeared before the Ways and Means
Committee petitioning for protection
measures in the tariff bill
After the hearing general CONVERSE
ton ensued, and manufacturer pres
ent began to explain to Bryan how a
protective tariff was beneficial, where
upon Bryan said to him: You are a
re bier" One of the workers commit
tee then said: Mr. Bryan If the en-
ployer is 'robber,' what are the work
ingmen?" and Bryan replied: You are
public beggars." The committeeman
replied: I'VE do not consider 1t begging
to ask for protection against the cheap
labor Of foreign countries" Bryan re-
piled: Nevertheless you are public
beggars." He then left the committee
room.
The Workers Committee consisted Of
]. P. Eberhart, A. M. Hammet, James
Campbell, G. L. Cake, John Kealey
and Charles Bryant Of Pennsylvania,
New Jersey and Indiana. To this state
ment in writing James Campbell swore
before the Mayor Of Harrisburg Octo-
Der 18th, and Charles Bryant made a
similar statement and swore to it be-
fore the Clerk Of the Madison County
Circuit Court, Indiana, October 10Th
Campbell is one OF the most promi-
nent, and best known window glass
workers in the country, and Mr.. Bry-
ant is prominent among artisans In the
glass working trade Of the East.
It is no wonder that Mr.. Bryan re-
fuses to discuss protection since such
views as he entertains are insulting
and unamerican, and he knows what
would be the effect of their repetition
upon the stump. VIII wage earners
competing with under-cut and coolie
labor Of foreign lands, and who are de-
handing fair protection from such un-
equal competition, vote for man who
esteems them public beggars'' and
those who employ labor and stand for
its protection as public robbers?'

Tho Minister'S Tartan.

Every clan OF Scottish highlanders had
its own tartan, or striped colored cloth, OF
which the kilt and plaid were made. 1t is
not so we'll known, however, that tho
clergy of tho highlanders, down to re-
cent date used tartan for their weekday
dress.
The tartan of the clergy, as it was call
ed, was a sober cloth of white, black and
gray stripes. Ministers who did not care
to don the kilt almost always wore the
plaid or mantle of this material
In the eighteenth century, when the
Highlanders seldom went unarmed, it was
the custom of some clergymen to wear
swords. evon at church, and to be accom-
panied by u gillie, OF servant, carrying u
bow and sheath of arrows.
Nothing could better illustrate the dis
turbed state of those times than this prac-
tice on the part of the men who were pre-
eminently preachers Of peace and universal
good will-Scotsman

Refused by All.

The littl8 acts which go to the making
of great example OF heroism or sacrifice
arc ever Interesting. In 1889, when al!
day long the warships confined within the
narrow limits of the little harbor of Apia,
Samoa, had been at the mercy of the hur-
ricane and she coral reefs, there came al
hour on the Trenton never to be forgotten.
A writer in The Cosmopolitan Magazine
thus describes the scene and the incident
which makes it memorable:
Every ono had Invested himself Of SUI
perfuous clothing, and, with such appur-
tenances for safety as could be secured,
stood aw aiting the last plunge. On the
forecastle some men were hurriedly build
ing a raft ON some empty barrels, on which
they hoped to float ashore. Others had
dashed themselves to spars and empty
casks, and a few were provided with life
preservers, hastily secured from below.
There was one life preserver, however,
for which no one seemed to have any use.
A faithful follower and friend of the ex-
ecutive officer passed it to him on tho
bridge, hoping it might DO the means of
his preservation. But, instead Of making
use of it, ha offered it to the admiral. who
refused it, and then to the captain, with t.
like result.
1t was then thrown carelessly over the
rail surrounding the bridge, and there it
hung a glowing tribute to those brave
officers and a stimulus to the drooping
spirits of tho tagged out crew.

BETRAYED BY PLUM PUDDING.
A Burglar Who Forgot Business In Sigh
OF Ono and Was Caught.

The English arc proud Of their watch
dogs, and it is known that many farmers
rely upon the cackle Of their guinea hens
for the protection of their hen roosts; but,
in addition to all that, England has just
afforded an example of tho safeguarding
qualities OF plum pudding This unexpcct
ed demonstration took place i'll house on
the Portsdown road, in the Mazda Vale
quarter Of London, belonging to AIR. Pres
ton, surgeon III the navy.
AT about $3.50 O'Clock in tho evening a
burglar got into the house through the
cellar by breaking the lock of the kitchen
Goor. This burglar was George Donovan.
He knew that the house was empty. The
family were at the theater, and the sery-
ants took advantage of their absence to 90
on vacation for Il few hours. Favored by
these circumstances Donovan had little
trouble in reaching the dining room.
There an enchanting spectacle was pre-.
scented to his eyes. A Hindoo poet tells Us
the story of the brigand of Delhi who, at
the moment when he was about to cut a
hole in the wall of house to get in and
commit robbery, hesitated whether he
would cut it in the form of Tyre or of %
flower or of u bird. George Donovan was
not absorbed by any such artistic preoccu-
patton. He noticed upon the table SPLEEN
did plum pudding, something that he
hadn't tasted for a long time So he sat
down in front of the national dish, cut "a
huge slice of 1t, ana sailed in. The pUd-
ding was delicious. Like Raggles, Dono-
van struck it rich. He cut slice after slice,
but unfortunately for him u plum pud-
ding is not possessed Of the light quality
that belongs to French pastry. Soon the
burglar got thirsty, and in his search for
something to drink he discovered bottle
of Scotch whisky, his favorite beverage.
He remained at the table enjoying himself
thoroughly for about an hour. Soon he be-
came pbllyious Of his professional duties.
In fact, he didn't know where lie was; so
be threw himself on the luxurious Garnet,
and went to sleep with an unrufiied con
science. AT about midnight he was found
there, and was reused up by policeman
who had been called in. He admitted with
out hesitation his object, but he was loud
in his praise of that pudding. Addressing
Surgeon Preston, he said he would like to
know If that pudding was made in the
house or in some confectionery establish
ment because, he said. he never before
had tasted anything so delicious and he
wanted TO taste it again. He was taken be
fore police justice Of Marylebonc, who
committed him for trial
''All right, Judge" he said, "but, all
the same, that was a fine pudding and
first rate whisky
Judge Plowden, VINO is somewhat of a
humorist, made funny speech, clarifying
the English plum pudding, which, as he
said not only Furnishes the ilnprudcnt
with indigestion, but also, as this case
plainly showed, protects the tireside and
knocks out burglars. London Letter.
