The City Election.

If an election for municipal Off
GERS shall be held on the first Sat
urday in June, it is pretty near time
that candidates shall be named for
the various positions to be filled
We hope conservative citizens may
be found who will be approved by
every member of the Republican
party. We say this because we
desire that the candidates who may
be nominated shall be elected. To
insure success the party must unite.
II there is to be dissension there
will be but little use in holding an
election. The Offices at stake are
too important to be thrown away
merely because of failure to elect
q U. S. Senator. The election OF a
mayor, city treasurer and members
OF council should not be jeopardized
by the action of members of the
Legislature. All should act as
though that dispute had been ami
cably settled for at least eighteen
months. 1t will be time enough to
agitate that matter when nominal
tons shall be made for the Legisla-
ture. Those who do not desire the
election OF Democrats will arrange
to submit to the will Of the majority
as that is the only course that will
preserve the integrity of any party.
Without such submission there can
never be successful election held
in our State for long time to come,
not until the old leaders shall have
passed away and new ones taken
their places. We want peace and
harmony among Republicans and
not until We are assured of dis
position to harmonic will we feel
satisfied. Republicans must agree
to let bygones be bygones and con-
sent to rub out old scores and begin
anew.

General Young Rebukes n is ON GERS.

Augusta, Ca. March 21.-General
Young has issued an order severely criti-
cizing the commissioned officers and the
finding of The court martial in the trial
OF the rioters of the Fifteenth Minnesota
regiment which occurred March 4 and 5,
when one OF their number was killed by
n saloonkeeper. He says in part: THE
dcplorable inefficiency, incapacity, weak.
ness and timidity exhibited by nearly all
of those commissioned officers present
at the dsgraceful and violent outbreak
in the camp is incredible except on the
abundant sworn testimony of said Of
ficers themselves. 1t is with profound
regret that the corps commander finds
himself constrained to punish enlisted
men while, through circumstances be-
yond his control, certain officers I'M
worthy of the commissions they hold are
permitted to 60 home with clean reg
