Newman for Supervisor.

w nen man has been nominated for
ONCE by political party and receives
Ihe necessary votes to insure his cleo
lion, he at once. upon taking Office. be-
comes the servant of the entire people
10 MS district, county or state. And
should he fail to look after their in
terests collectively he is called to ac-
count through the paper channels, and
II he be man of the people and for the
people he will set about at the first op-
portunlty to correct any error that he
may have made. But few men fill pub
lie positions without much adverse
criticism, no matter how we'll they per-
form the work assigned them. Fault
nndlng Is considered a virtue by some
men, and they are never satisfied un-
less they are picking flaws in the acts
OF others. During Mr. Newman's term
as supervisor no individual criticism
has been heaped upon him by his politi-
Cal opponents. And while some dis
satisfaction has been expressed regard
ing the acts OF the board as a whole,
Mr.. Newman has been considered a
sale man for the position, and was
unanimously renominated by the demo-
cratic convention. AS we caunot hope
to have other than democrat from
this township let us as republicans and
progressive citizens vote for Mike New
man to succeed himself for the follow
ing reasons:
First-The roads in his district are
as good as the best to be found else
where in the county.
Second-He is always in attendance
at the board meetings, looking after
and voting for the peoples interest.
Ihird-Being heavy taxpayer him
self be desires economy in every branch
OF the county government.
Fourth-The county will be given the
benefit of his past experience in Office.
Fifth--Being man of good business
ability, self-willed and of sound iudg-
ment, he will take orders from no
political bosses. but will at all times
strive to advance the interests of his
district and the entire county.
And lastly, having been elected by
the people irrespective of party, he
can the more independently represent
his constituents without fear OF criti-
clsm from any party, creed or class.
REPUBLICAN.

COUNTY HOSPITAL FINANCES.
Expenses and Disbursements on Account
of the Hospital for the Past Year.

Superintendent Fred LeMoin of the
county hospital has just compiled,
under law requiring an itemized ac-
count OF hospital expenses to be trans
mitted annually to the state controller,
the following exhibit, showing in detail
the cost of running the county institu-
tion, and other matters of interest, for
the year ending July 1, 1904. The re-
port as published herewith in concise
and tabulated form will be a good
thing to keep for future reference, and
for comparison with subsequent state
ments. The law requires this account
to be filed with the state controller
every year, but for some reason or
other it has been neglected for several
years:
Amador ledger., 1904-11-04
BRINN FOR SUPERVISOR.

The electors of township 4 have
an opportunity of securing as a
representative on the board of super
visors in the person of Morris Brinn,
a man who has been tried in that
trying position, and found true to
the public interests. It is not the
policy of a body corporate to dis
card the services of men who have
proved faithful to every trust i'm
posed upon them, but rather to pro-
mote them to places of higher re-
sponsibility. Shall official duties,
well and faithfully performed, not
command the same recognition at
the hands of the voters of township
four as similar fidelity would in
variably receive at the hands of a
private firm or corporation. 1t is
beyond denial that under Mr..
Brinn's supervision the roads of that
district attained degree of effici-
ency never before seen in Amador
county. 1t is conceded that the
present system of road maintenance
is detrimental and pernicious. But
in spite of its many defects super
visor Brinn stood the ordeal of the
vicious system, and commanded the
confidence of his constituents as
road commissioner and supervisor.
The fact stands out in bold relief
that he did more for the betterment
of the roads with the same amount
OF money than had been done before,
or has been done since. 1t is up to
the people of township four to say
whether this satisfactory record
shall be turned down or indorsed.
Such is the issue presented to the
voters of Sutter Creek and Amador.
1t is not a mere matter of appeal to
partisanship. We are aware that
voters generally have little respect
for arguments based solely on par
tisan grounds. We want above all
things in Amador county at the
present time an economical and
judicious administration of county
affairs. With this object attained
it matters little to the general tax
payer whether the result is reached
through republicans or democrats.
For local offices the character of the
candidate is of far more Importance
than whether he belongs to this or
that party. Character, not party
ism, is the only guarantee of fidelity
in official positions. When man
can refer to his past record for
proof of his qualifications, he is in
an impregnable position. 1t is this
aspect of the situation that gives
to the supervisor contest in town
ship four a peculiar interest. The
cause of good local government is on
trial. Surely there can be no mis-
givings how the majority of the
voters will act in this emergency.
In the three-cornered fight there
should be no question about the out
come. There is no excuse whatever
for republicans to throw off on their
candidate. 1t only needs republi-
cans to stand by their ticket to elect
Brinn by big majority. But we
hope to see the taxpayers generally
place their seal in behalf of trust
worthiness in Office by electing him
by the largest majority that has
been given to supervisor candidate
in many years.

WALLED SEOUL.
The ancient Capital OF Korea and
some OF Its PecuIinrities.

The ancient Capital OF Korea ana
some OF Its PecuIiarities.
Seoul, the capital Of Chosen, is built
amid a network Of hills eighteen miles
from the sea. 1t Is an ancient walled
city, fortified in the strongest way by
smells that would drive any but an
Asiatic army forthwith into the ocean.
II is poor in appearance, but rich In
fleas. On autumn nights tigers fire.
quently contest the right of way with
belated pedestrians. and this is the
chief reason why one has the lentire
street to oneself in moonlightNs Nstroll
after o'clock. Metaphorically. one
can scarcely see the town for the bald,
bulbous and bullet headed Buddhist
priests who fatten on the superstition
Of the populace.
Barring an occasional court function,
marked by street PROFESSIONS. Seoul is
triumphantly devoid Of sights interest
ing TO a traveller. The streets lack en-
tirely those picturesque characteristics
Of a Chinese or Japanese thoroughfare,
and n vista across the Korean house
tops is one Of appalling monotony. One
seeks in vain for attractive souvenirs.
In the small shops of Seoul japanese
beer, matches. cigarettes and cheap
crockery form the chief stock in trade,
while long stemmed Korean pipes and
metal banded Korean knives ate Of
fered in the most pretentious shops.
Here, likewise. can be had the really
unique Korean fans, made Of silk or
paper. finished in oil and covered with
curious native designs. These fans
are dipped in water before they are
used, and the little breeze produced by
them is astonishingly cool.
The wall surrounding Seoul, from
which kites are ever flying, is but q
pocket edition Of the great Chinese wall
that leads down to the sea at shanhai-
kwan. Piercing this Korean copy are
the city gates - picturesque passage
ways-which arc promptly and irrevo-
cably closed with the setting of the
sun. The west gate will be entered by
the tourist on reaching the capital from
ChemuIpo, and should he come TO the
outside Of this but minute after the
sun has disappeared behind the horizon
and the big belr has doomed its
mournful warning note he is elected TO
camp in the open until Phebus has cy-
cled the world on the equatorial path.
II he reaches the gate FIVE minutes be-
fore II closes on its groaning hinges he
will witness q sight that will almost
repay him for the toilsome trip up from
the coast.-Outing.
