Republican County Canvass.

The local candidates started out on
their regular canvass last Saturday,
speaking that night in Volcano. A
large audience greeted them. Each
candidate made an address. F. L..
Stewart spoke at length on matters
touching his own candidacy. They
were we'll received, the applause
naturally being most liberally bestowed
upon their home candidates. J. R.
Tregloan, of Amador City, spoke at
length after the candidates got through.
On Monday night they held meet
ing at Lancha Plana, in the school
house, which was filed with an ap-
preciative audience. C. II. Crocker
and W. H. Willis helped out the
candidates.
On Tuesday night they were at
Buena Vista, Speaking in Norris hall.
The weather was stOr my, and this had
an effect upon the audience. Notwith-
standing this the speakers were listened
to with marked attention, and cordially
received. On account of the inclement
weather, another meeting has been ar
ranged for Buena Vista on Thursday,
October 80.

dress the people. The Oneida glee club
and the Jackson mandolin orchestra

entertainment, also the Jackson band.
A dance will be given after the meet
ing. Republicans from other towns
are expected to turn out in force. and
whoop things up for the republican
state and county ticket. w. c..
Ralston, candidate for state senator,
and G. FL. McKenney will also be in

t hat the complaint-the substance OF
which is set out in the docket-was
sworn to on the 24th of September by
! U 5 Gregory, 1t charges positively
and directly that w H. Lester, of the
county of Ell Dorado. on the 18th day
of Septem ber, 1900, at Shake Ridge, in
the. county OF Amador. state of Cali
fornla, committed the crime of felony,
to w.t. grand larceny. The said Will
liam H. Lester, at the time and place
aforesaid, feloniously. did kin, steal
take and carry away from the noun
tain cattle range of the estate of George
Allen, deceased. one COW. thn same
being then and there the property of
the estate of Geo Allen, deceased.
The defendant was asked whether he
wanted an attorney, and replied that
he did not. The taxing down of the
testimony in shorthand, which is
usually done in felony cases which 20
- trial, was waived, and this is the eX-
PLANTATION OF there being no deposition
on file. The law says that with the
consent of all parties-the district at
torney, defendant, and court-reducing
OF the testimony to writing may be
waived. So it was satisfactory all
round that the testimony in this case
should not be perpetuated The eX-
animation was held on tho 25th-the
same day that the matter came up in
the superior court. U S Gregory was
the sole witness. The law provides
that preliminary examination in
felony cases cannot be waived.
These are the facts from the records.
1t is needless to comment upon them.
No doubt the man killed the COW. But
if the statement of our correspondent
is correct-and he gives the only Cir
cumstantial account of the matter that
has appeared in writing-the crime be-
longed to Ell Dorado county to look
after. This case is signal illustration
of the dangerous tendency of the ''plead
guilty policy which has grown to be
such prominent feature of the courts
of Amador county.

Rainfall.

The first rain of the season COM
menced Tuesday afternoon. Not for
many years has the starting in of the
rainy season been delayed so long.
Except slight sprinkle in August
not enough to measure-we have had
not a drop of rain for the season until
this week. Our weather records do
not show parallel to such late COM
mencement of winter, although in the
season 1889 there was less rain up to
November 1 than we have had this
week. The rainfall has been sufficient
ly heavy not only to lay the dust, but
to start the grass. 1t will no doubt
start the streams in the eastern part of
the county which help to feed the Blue
Lakes canal, and thereby stave off all
fears of scarcity of water this season.
The rainfall for the week as measured
by the Ledger gauge is as follows:

Multitudes are singing the praises of
Kodol, the new discovery which is
making SO many sick people well and
weak people strong by digesting what
they eat, by cleansing and sweetening
the stomach and by Transforming their
food into the kind of pure, rich, red
blood that makes you feel good all
over. Mrs, Cranfill, of Troy, 1. T.,
writes: Bor a number of years was
troubled with indigestion and dyspep-
sia which grew into the worst form.
Finally was induced to use Kodol and
after using four bottles l am entirely
cured. 1 heartily recommend Kodol
to all sufferers from indigestion and
dyspepsia. Take a dose after meals.

We are informed by letters FROM

Saturday devoted some time toward
annihilating the Ledger audDits editor.
Indeed throughout their canvass so
far the democratic speakers have
wasted much ammunition in discussing
such outside matters. In lone we are
told the snake-charmer's case of a year

edly fine campaign story. The more
it is gone into the better it will be for
