Congressman Rhea said i'm his recent
address here that the negroes who are
getting on the Registration books con-
sidered themselves greatly superior to
the brethren who are not able to do so.
and that these colored voters would
likely vote the Democratic ticket here
after. Who can tell but that these
superior negroes may not, in the
future, identify themselves with the
party heretofore known IA the "white
mans party? What a boom rang for
the Democrats.

Under the new instrument no one
can register who has not lived at the

WAGES TO Be RAISED.

A conference is being held in San

ern Pacific division superintendent
between Ogden and ElPaso
1t has practically been decided
what answer will be made to the de
mands for higher wages made BY the
engineers and firemen Before in
forming the men it was deemed desir-
able 10 get an opinion from the divi-
sion superintendent
Agler and Kruttschnitt are also
consulting with the several superin-
tendents about the demands of the
telegraph operators for more pay
The company is about ready to give
the operators reply to their demand
1t appears that the average month
! ly wage of the operators on the Salt
Lake division of the company is
SS4.95; on the Tuscon division 1851.
On all the other divisions the pay is
much lower and so brings down the
average for the whole system to
$77.67. With the exception of the
Denver and Rio Grande system. the
operators which average $50 a
month, the average of the Southern
Pacific is still higher than any other
road in the country The Southern
Pacific operators want the ineQuali
ties of pay on the several divisions
removed by making the minimum pay
per month over the entire system $S5
1t is believed the company's action

ciples, the Bee recognized the super
ior qualifications of Franklin X Lane
for Governor and it gave him enthu-
siastic, able and efficient support. The
workingmen responded nobly to the
claims of Mr.. Lane as their friend,
but his supporters were from all
classes.
Lanes popularity in Sacramento
is shown by the fact that he carried
that county although An
derson. the Republican candidate for
Lieutenant Governor received 49, plu-
rality and Gett, the Democratic candi-
date for Acknowledgement, who lives
in Sacramento, fell 1863 behind Webb
his Republican opponent
A gratifying feature of the result
is its proof that the Southern Paci-
fic Railroad Company cannot control
the votes of its employees. Several
days ago the word went out from San
Francisco that the railroad desired
the election of Pardee. Many who
had believed that Lane would carry
Sacramento then declared that the
employees in the railroad shops would
not dare to defy Instructions from San
Francisco. But, trusting in the secre.
| cy of the ballot, hundreds of them did
! defy those Instructions and the re.
suit must have been a revelation to
Mr.. Herrin.-Stockton Mail.
