HONORBD BY His fOVNSMBN.
1 Pleasant Surprise rendered to Hon.
Grove l. Johnson.
His Friends Assembled and Presented
to Him an Elegant Silver
Tea Set.

A very pleasant affair took place at
the residence of Hon. Grove L. Johnson
which shows the estimation in when
he is still held by his fellow townsmen
and the value they set on his services
to his district while in Congress.
A large number of citizens assembled
at the Golden Eagle Hotel last night
and proceeded in body to Mr.. john
sons house. After being admitted ana
welcomed by him, Judge Hart, who had
been selected as spokesman Tor the
occasion, claimed his attention and
spoke as follows:
Hon. Grove L. Johnson: The occa-
sion which brings forth the assembling
of your friends about you this evening
is one mixed with pleasure and re-
gret Pleasure, because we reallze that
you have returned to again mlngle
among those who are your friends ana
who know you best A pleasure, be-
cause we feel proud to be able to real
iZe that in our midst there is one who
has honored himself and his nelghborS
abroad. The regret which your return
from your labOrs at Washington brings
to your friends is, I must confess, in
very large degree the offspring OF sell
fishness. 1t is that regret which takes
possession of those who believe ana
know that your absence has been and
could be, if continued on the same con-
ditions of immeaSurable advantage
and benefit to the city with which you
have been so long identified
I deny that it is flattery which
prompts me to say on this occasion,
NOT h11t a PHI
reflection of the sentiment of the peo-
pie of this entire city, that the mistake
of your defeat for reelection, brought
on by the misguided judgment of the
electors of this Congressional District,
will be surely felt by reason of the alb
Sence from the halls of national leglS-
alton, of a representative from this
State in the person of man possessing
the talent, craftsmanship, the indomi-
table industry and the combativeneSs,
when occasion required it, that made
you, in your initial experience as a
national legislator, the peer of any man
in that distinguished body. And l may
say that, had the choice of Congress
man from this district been left to
those who know you best, those with
whom you have associated socially,
professionally and politically-your
neighbors who have seen and watched
your ascent to the honorable and dis
tinguished position in life which you
now occupy-your return to Congress
would have been mere matter of
waiting until the day of the election.
1t is the desire of your numerous
friends in this city to demonstrate to
you, and your family, to whom you are
so devoted, that your neighbors know
that whatever calumnies may have
been spoken or printed against you in
the campaign which resulted in your
defeat were only the undersigned phil
ippics of enemies who feared that your
power and aggressiveness might result
in the establishment and maintenance
of policies of government which were
antagonistic to their own; and that the
people of this city have that confideINe
in you which can assure you that, were
you again to become a candidate for
Congress or any other public office, they

again for the feeling they had dis
played.
He should labor for Sacramento in
private life as he had ever done in pub
lie life and whether or not he should
ever again ask assistance from Sacra-
mento fe should feel that her citizens
have faith in him and this evening
blunted the sting of defeat. He
thanked them as a husband, an Amer
lean, a citizen and a public servant; as
one among them. There are occasions
that bind friends together stronger
than steel and with bands brighter than
diamonds. and this was one of them. He
thanked them again and again.
The assembly then adjourned to an
other room, where they drank the
health of Mr. Johnson and his family,
and passed a short time in social con-
verse before they bade him good night.
