bett another chance after he had dis
posed of Maher in finish fight. With
this statement, Stuart had to be satis-
fled and no signatures were added to the
document he had brought with him.
The date in the proposed agreement
was Aug. 10, 1898. When Stuart called
attention to 1t both Fitzsjmmons and
Julian said it was satisfactory II the

VAS IN IT
A Republican Scheme to Gerrymander
the State, Separating Mining
From Farming Counties
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
SACRAMENTO, Jan. "a scheme to
change the present arrangement OF the
political map Of California, which has
been brewing in the pot Of the Repub-
lican party for nearly year, boiled over
during the past week and disclosed some
of its ingredients. Apparently, political
advantage is not an object. If the next
legislature is Republican, an effort will
be made to reorganize the different con-
gressional districts. The center of this
gerrymandering operation will be in the
Second congressional district, which in
cludes this county. This district pos
sesses an amalgamation of diverse in
terests, the counties in the valley being
devoted almost exclusively to agricul-
ture, and the mountain counties to min
ing The farmers and the miners have
never agreed. Republican politicians,
after carefully studying the problem,
have reached the conclusion that the
only solution is the absolute separation
of the mining and the agricultural in
terests. The Second congressional dis
trict is composed of the following coun-
ties: Sacramento, Butte, Sutter, Yuba,
Nevada, Placer, El Dorado, Amador.
Calaveras, Mono. Alpine. Tuelumne,
Mariposa and San Joaquin.
1t is proposed to separate Nevada,
Placer, Ell Dorado. Amador, Calaveras,
Mono, Inyo. Alpine and Mariposa. The
necessary population could be made up
