POLICE JURY.
REGULAR HIEETING - RESOLJ
TON TO DESTROY CHESO-
KEE HEDGES-OTHER
BUSIN ESS.

The Police Jury met Last Thursday in
regular session with all the members pres
emf, except Nr. J. O. Blanchet of the 4th
ward.
Supt. Aleman appeared and explained
that owing the failure of the president
to issue a proci2 nation the special election
to levy a school tax in the Ist ward had not
been held and that the people interested
wished the jury to hold the matter in
allegiance. C.r;ain changes in the original
proposition submitted were desired by those
interested ami the question would again be
presented.
BY motion of Mr.. Mouton the roadover-
seers of the respective wards were instructed
to use every effort, in conf JUNCTION with adj
jaCcnt proprieIOrs, to remove all cherokee
hedges and other Instructions along the
public roads in order to maintain the high
ways in proper travelling condition. The
Jury finds III at in many places the hedges
not only occupy Il considerable portion Of
the road, thus seriously interfering with
traffic and proper grading, but have ex-
tended into adjoining fields covering large
areas of valuable land. The object of the
resolution is to secure the cooperation of
the farmers in the radiance of the common
nuisance.
Mr.. Bileaud reported several of
hytlroph ,bia among mules and horses in
IT,. 5th ward and the jury instructed him t.
,.,N precautions in Protecting the pub
lie.
Sir Buchanan rep 'rtei the grievance of
NJ. VIM Walker relative to the boundary
of the public road near his place, but no
action taken. The ROAD encroaches
up N the property of Mr.. Walker and it
may be necessary for him to his
rcside;ce.
Messrs. J. y. Liable, +. G.. Mouton, and
X. 6. Grcig were appointed to settle with

have displayed remarkabl de-
gree of skill in their efforts to win
the beautiful Morris chair which
is to be given away. Mr.. Lu-
deau, a resident of Vile Platte,
who has entered the contest, has
sent Pellerin & DcClOuet a fine
specimen of penmanship. Mr..

but he has undoubtedly demon

the spirit Of thanksgiving seldom enters and
where turkey rarely forms part Of the reg
ular menu. Thanks to Mrs. |. 4. Brous-
sard, the wife OF the sheriff. the prise lers
in the Lafayette Jail were treated to an ex-
cellent dinner on Thanksgiving and en- jOyed
the day as much as their cherries environ
ments permitted. The dinner was served
on two tables, one for the white prisoners
and the other for the negroes. Deputy

PARTIES WILL FUSE.

Nevada Democratic and Silver Con-
ventions Take Preliminary Steps.
Reno, New, Aug. 28.-The Demo
cratic and Silver state conventions
met during the day and appointed the
usual conference committees for the
purpose of fusion. Both conventions
adopted platforms.
The Democratic platform endorses
the Kansas City platform; denounces
the Fowler currency bill; favors tariff
reform: pronounces in favor of the
Constitution following the flag; op-
poses the ship subsidy bill; faVors the
admission as states of the territories
of Arizona, New Mexico and Okla
homa; felicitates the people OF the
region on the passage of the irrigation
bill and compliments Congressman
Newlands on "the able and effective
part taken by him in securing it's en-
actment." !.
Congressman Newlands is endorsed
for United States senator. The Silver
party platform does not differ mater1-
ally from the Democratic, but declares
more specifically for free coinage.

california, Republicans Nominate Or
,~S Pardee of Oakland for Governor.


fS Pardes Of Oakland for Governor.
M Sacramento, Cal, Aug. 2S.-The
most hotly contested factional fight in
the history of the Republican party in
California came to an end when the
sixth ballot was taken in the state con
veution for the 'gubernatorial nomina'
tion. 80. =,
When the convention assembled the
forces Of Governor Gage were still
hopeful Of making some combination
whereby the deadlock could be broken.
Governor Gage reached his highest
vote ON the fourth ballot when $780, a
were credited to him, and on the next
dropped to 1854. The end came amid
the greatest confusion. When Shasta
county was reached in the sixth roll
call the Gage people began to cast
their votes for Pardee and then the
slide toward the Alameda county
physician commenced amid an uproar
that interfered with the taking of the
ballot. Long before San Diego coun-
ty was reached, DR.. Pardee's nomina'
ton was assured and then the Flint
men gracefully struck their cOlOrs and
paid Pardee the compliment of voting
for him.
j. o. Hayes of San Jose, one of the
unsuccessful candidates, moved to
make the nomination unanimous. The
motion was carried. DR.. Pardee was
called to the platform and made a
brief address, thanking the conven-
tion and predicting success.
Alden Anderson of SOlano county
was the only candidate for lieutenant
governor and he was nominated by &C
clamation. The candidates for chief
Justice of the supreme court were
Chief justice W. H. Beatty and Charles
H. Garoutte. Beatty was chosen by
vote of 43O to 400. For associate
justices. Lucien Shaw of Los Angeles
and F. M. Angelotti Of Marin were
nominated on the first ballot. For
secretary OF state, Charles F. Curry
was renominated.
