Amador ledger., 1902-08-29

U S Gregory, in acknowledging
the honor of his nomination as
sheriff, emphatically and in all seri-
BUSINESS declared to the democratic
convention, in reference to his re-
publican opponent, that "the Lord
God Almighty knows he will need
the assistance of his friends" That
was certainly a wise remark to be
dropped by an astute politician. For
whose enlightenment was it intend
ed? Every one that knows Tom
Norman is fully aware that he is a
long way from that state of self
suf1ciency as to imagine that he can
get along without the assistance of
his friends. His friends also are
alive to the fact that he will need
their help, and they will tender it
willingly and liberally. By the way,
are the voters of Amador county to
infer from the characteristic remark
of the democratic candidate that
Mr.. Gregory does not need the as
sistance of his friends. Is his own
right hand strong enough to win
the victory. 1t is Just that sort of
spirit that the citizens of Amador
county are getting heartily sick of.
When a servant of the people as
sumes the air of the autocrat, and
imagines he is the whole show in
himself, they have unquestioned
grounds for thinking that a change
is desirable, and will act according
ly. Pride goeth before a fall"
Amador ledger., 1902-08-29

equally as well by following the
promptings of sympathy, no valid
objection can be raised against trav-
cling the sympathetic path. For
many years no one has contested
for the democratic nomination
agains the present incumbent, prob
ably from sympathetic motives.
This year, however, three other can
didates announced their intention to
go before the convention, each one
possessed of more than average in
telligence. 1t became the most
sought-after office in the county,
not because there was money in it,
but in response to the demand for a
change. The aspirants we're eucour-
aged by party leaders, and promise
of relief spanned the democratic
convention, Now what is the result.
One by one, these intelligent citizens
are told that they have no show of
success-told by the very men who
encouraged their candidacy in the
first place. One after another they
dropped out of the race, until finally
the incumbent is left the lone seeker
for the nomination as of yore. Thus
are public interests subordinated to
party necessities. Democratic can
didates for reelection perhaps
thought they would lose a few votes
if things were changed So the op-
portunity which they failed to take
advantage of has been relegated to
the people in general at the ballot
box. We believe the people will
know how to deal with the issue,
and also with the party that has not
the courage to face a local PROPOSE
tion when it is squarely passed up
to them.

The democratic convention, which
was to have been, according to those
not on the inside, ee-for-a all, GO
as-you-please scrimmage, turned out
to be a mutual admiration society.
Every candidate was patted and
palavered by the convention, and
the candidates did the SOLDERING
act likewise. On the surface, every
anticipated point of friction was
smoothed down. Tom Gartlin, who
was on the opposition program for
the sheriff nomination, was put
hors-de-combat by being elected
chairman. A. B. Mclaughlin, who
was also spoken of for the shrievalty,
or at least the supervisor nomina-
tion in his district, was sent to the
state convention. Sargent, who
was after the justice of the peace for
township one, got the craftsmanship
of the county central committee in
stead. In fact, everything was done
to plaster up the sores, and if any
remains still open, it is for the rea-
son that they did not have enough
sticking plaster to go round.

His Sight Threatened.

while picnicking last month my
11-year-old boy was poisoned by some
weed or plant, says w. H. Dibble, of
Sioux City, Ia. "He rubbed the
poison off his hands into his eyes and
for awhile we were afraid he would lose
his sight. Finally a neighbor recon-
mended DeWitt's Witch Hazel 'Salve.
The first application helped him and in
few days he was as we'll as ever" {"
For skin diseases. cuts, burns, scalds,
wounds, insect bites, DeWitt's Witch
Hazel Salve is sure cure. Relieves
piles at once. Beware of counterfeits.

PARDEE EoR GOVERNOR.

After five Intellectual ballots, in all
OF which governor Gage maintained
a strong lead, George c. Pardee of
Oakland, the well-known oculist, was
nominated for governor ON the re-
publican ticket on the sixth ballot.
The honor fell to the Alameda man
through the strengb of the Gage
forces being thrown solidly in his
favor, the final vote standing Pardee
518 to 213 for Flint. The Amador
delegation on the last ballot stood,
as we are informed, Davis, Marchant,
Herrick and Whitmore for Pardee;
VOORHEES,, Tregloan and Barney for
Flint. The outcome of the long
drawn-out struggle will be hailed
with satisfaction by republicans gen
orally. Pardee will unite all factions
and carry the practically solid vote
of his party.

DEGENERATE MANAGEMENT.

The degenerate trend of the local
democracy under its present man.
agement was signally Illustrated by
the action of their convent tion in re-
gard to the justice of the peace in
township one. 1t is well known
that the administration of Justice in
this township falls long way short
of what it ought to be. We are
willing to concede that the Justice
has done the best he knew how. -
Still there is no denying the fact,
that the safeguarding of the rights
OF citizens and of the community has
been more in the nature of a broad
farce than anything else. To no one
are the shortcomings of the present
regime more apparent than to those
in Jackson who shape the destinies
of the local democracy. Indeed,
they have frequently expressed
themselves in regard to the intoler.
able state of inefficieucy, and a deter
mination to do their utmost to END
it. Sympathy has played a conspic,
uous part i'll continuing the court as
it is, and this same potent factor in
politics is relied upon to cut figure
in perpetuating the conditions under
which we have suffered for so many
years. We have no objection to
sympathy entering into politics. If
public Interests can be subserved
