OF INTEREST TO PosTMAsTERs

A question has arisen, not only in
this county, but more or less
throughout the country, which is of
much interest to the present post
masters, and upon which subject a
variety of opinions have been ex-
pressed. The question is, whether
the present postmasters appointed
under the republican administra-
ton, will be required, in order to
hold on to their positions, to apply
by petition or personal application
for reappointment. To set this mat
ter at rest, congressman Woods of
this district has been written to for
information as to the proper course
to pursue. An answer has been re-
ceived, to the effect that under the
rule of the post Office department,
all fourth-class postmasters will con-
tinue in Office without reappoint-
ment. That is to say, it will not be
necessary for them to move in the
matter at all. In the case of salar-
led offices, of which there are three
in this county, it is the rule to have
a petition addressed to the fourth
assistant postmaster general, signed
by the patrons of the Office and such
members of the republican county
committee as can be obtained. This
is merely a formal proceeding, as
serving to show that the incumbent
is giving satisfaction, and is GER
tainly not intended to reopen the
matter for general scramble for
the offices, the same as when a change
of administration occurs.

NOTICE-..c

When you are about to buy suit
of clothes, it would be absurd to 90
to carpenters shop. When in
need of medicine, you would not call
on the blacksmith to prescribe for
you. To reasonable people it will
appear that to buy a suit there is
but one place, and that is the tailor
shop, where your suit can be fitted
on you before being made up; and
where you can select your goods,
not from piece of scrap on paper,
where in nine cases out of ten when
your suit arrives it isn't at all what
you selected. If you buy it home
you can select your goods from a
large assortment of piece goods, and
can see what you are getting for
your money. Your ready made
suits are pressed and remodeled with
no extra charge; this | guarantee.
Remember mine is the only place in
Jackson where you can have this
done free of charge.
Have just received brand new
line of spring and summer goods all
ready made and to be made up to
order. Mems, Youths and child
ren's clothing of the latest styles.
Trusting to receive call from
you, and thanking you for your past
favors, and soliciting the same in

STILL BARKING AT GAGE.

The republican dailies of San Fran
cisco are really helping Gage to Sc
cure denomination by the extreme
efforts they are putting forth to de
feat him. The people generally love
fairness. They can tell the differ.
ence between manly and patriotic
opposition which springs from a de-
sire to promote the public welfare,
and its counterfeit that is prompted
by selfish motives. In publishing
every scrap of editorial writing,
whether from republican or demo
cratic sources, that can be twisted
into the anti Gage column, and care
fully suppressing every expression
of interior journalism in his favor,
the city papers only too plainly re-
veal the true inwardness of their
opposition. Fair-minded men re-
volt against such tactics. and favor
the public official who is thus being
bounded without cause. Not one OF
this coterie of would be dictators
can truthfully say that Gage has not
made a creditable record as COVER
nor. Some of these small spirits OF
the press, who are now engaged in
decrying him for the purpose of get
ting themselves noticed by the great
dailies, were singing Cages praises
only a few weeks back, and will
again be extolling his merits as a
man and a public servant in few
months from now. Their utterances
are but froth and foam, and have
little weight in shaping the opinion
of intelligent citizens. Gage has
given the state clean, honest, and
economical administration. Nothing g
has been or can be said against him
personally. The utmost his critics
urge against him as governor is that
he has appointed some to Office who
do machine politics. Admitting this
to be true, what of it? Tried by the
same standard, what man in high
political position today, from the
president down, would pass the roll
cali unblemished? The truth is,
Gage has been true to his friends
and that is virtue to be commended,
rather than a crime to be condemn
ed. If all men in public life would
eyince the same manly courage to
stand by their friends when assailed
without just cause, the political at
mosphere would be purified of one
half of its offensiveness. We do moi
believe that Gage cares snap fol
denomination except as a rebuke tc
those who imagine they can hound
him out of the race. Their hostility
mas reused up his fighting blood
and the rank and file of the party tt
which he belongs admire him for thu
undaunted front he is presenting t(
his traducers.

A GOOD APPOINTMENT.

The board of supervisors did a
commendable act this week in the
appointment of o. E. Martin to the
Office of justice of the peace of town
ship four, made vacant by the death
of J. H. Giles, of Sutter Creek. 1t
is commendable from every stand
point. The fitness of the appointee
as regards intelligence and integrity
is generally conceded throughout the
township, so that the rights of the
people have been fully safeguarded
The other applicants, it may be said,
are equally honest and capable, but it
will not be con tended that they have
any advantage in these respects over
their successful rival. But the sig
nificance and policy of the appoint
ment is manifest in other respects.
It is in line with the political COM
plexion of the board. This was a
vitally important issue, under the
conditions at present existing in this
county. Beyond this, the selection
will be gratefully accepted as a fit
ting recognition of the claims of the
smaller, but rapidly growing, town
in the district. Township four has
distinction peculiarly its own. Its
population is comprised almost en-
tirely in two large towns, Sutter
Greek and Amador City, with ANA
ador at a disadvantage in popula-
tion, and consequently in voting
strength. Under such circumstances
the local rivalry is apt to outweigh
political and party feeling, in case
the larger town should show dis
position to monopolize the official
honors. By conceding the justice,
ship to Amador for the unexpired
term this source of irritation has
been allayed, and harmony and good
feeling promoted between two popu-
lous centers, which cannot fail to
exert salutary influence in the ap-
preaching political campaign.

eases put together, and until the last
few years was supposed to be incur
able. For great many years doctors
pronounced it a local disease, and pre-
scribed local remedies, and by constant
ly failing to cure with local treatment,
pronounced it incurable. Science has
proven catarrh to be a constitutional
disease, and therefore requires consti-
tutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
