NOT THAT KIND.
Republicans Who Are Not of the
Silver Species.

among the delegates appointed to
yesterdays Silver Republican County
Sonvention-very few of whom were
present-was John c. March, the we'll
known lawyer. Mr. March had already
oechned the empty honor of being
named as the candidate Of that element
1or District Attorney. A Record
Union reporter was yesterday shown
copy of the letter written by Mr.
March on Friday declining to act as a
delegate to the convention. 1t reads:
Sacramento Sept I'd.
H. E. Wright, w. w. Coona, G.. M
Dixon, Executive Committee of the
Silver Republican Party Of Sacramento
County-Gentlemen: I return herewith
your notice appointing me delegate
to the Silver Republican Convention
to be held in this city tomorrow.
For reasons which l will not state
herein, I desire to sever my connection
with the Silver Republican party OF
this county, as now organized, and do
not therefore wish my name to appear
as delegate to said convention. Yours
very truly, JOHN c. MARCH.
DR.. w. A. Briggs, another whose
name was used in the same connection,
without authority, also notlhed the
committee that he would not attend
the convention.
How many more there are, among
the large number named as delegates
who did not deem it worth the trouble
to decline, can only be guessed at from
q perusal of the list of names.

The Best Justice Foster Could Do
for Anderson.

Charles Anderson, the burly negro
who attempted to assault young
white boy near Perkins several days
ago, pleaded guilty yesterday afternoon
In Justice Fosters Court at Perkins to
two charges. He was sentenced to the
full limit on each, which aggregates
six months.
When the prisoner was brought to
the County Jail he was at once recog-
nized by Sheriff Johnson and County
Detective Max P. Fisher as a former
inmate of the Oregon State Prison.
Anderson served three years at Sa-
lem, and was discharged in 1895 from
that institution. The prisoner at first
tried to deny it, but when Fisher called
him by his Oregon Prison name he
admitted his identity.
