that Mr. Watson has been SUD- porting Hoke smith for several months; he also knows that Mir. Watson is still the leader of the Populists, and while he does not say that ne is gone to the Demo cratic party, ne IS misleading on that subject. auu le knows bel ter. The Popuiist national or ganization is in good working order and has not disbanded, but is now gathering back the lost ground caused by fusion, but MT. Tompkins may not know that,
 That address says that if Mir. Callicott was elected to the legis- lature he could not get a motion seconded by one of his own par tv and asks the question, Do yoa really thlHk ne could be of much service to the county?' How does Mir. Tonpkins know that there viii not be several Populists in the legislature? But suppose taere is only one, and  that IS Mr Caliieott. We desire to answer tha auestjon by saying Chat we know eE experience that when man gets to the leqisla- ture he makes his own reputa- ton, B5s constituents at home

 T e address closes with the statement that every effort has been made to get our Populist friends to join us in this fight. Does Mir. Tompkins really be- lieve that to be true? He will not deny that he visited the poll ing rooms all day of the primary for no other purpose than Jo challenge Populist votes. That he had right to do so, under the resolution. is true; but that he has a right to say now that he has done all he could to get the Populists to join him is not true. It may be that he was only trying to sgrn off those who voted for Davis, Hamby and Gordon, and only wanted the others to join.
 Another charpe in that ad- dress must not go unnoticed. It is alleged that some of tue Pop nj. can 5idate5, he is informed voted in the primary for the man against whom they are running. We assert most positively and emphatieally that this is denied and sincerely believe is not true. Such charges as this, when unfounded are serious, and no christian gentleman should make them unless he can name the man and furnish the proof.
 In the name of peace, and good government, let us speak the truth in politics, as elswhere, and try to elect honest and com potent men to office, and follow such a course as will elevate, in- stead of degrade our county. Let every man go to the election next Monday and vote his own

THAT ADDRESS TO VOTERS.

W V lidN v bOlOA V Io cttl el00i 1Gt' to the voters of Nevada county and signed by ". v. Tompkins chairman of the Democratic county central committee.
 An Address sioned by a aood man like Brother Tompkins. pould fairly and mpartially speak the whole truth; otherwise
 is misleading ana becomes delusion.
 Brother Tonpkins, in this ad- dress undertakes to state the f5cts in regard to the actions of the Democratic and Populist county central committees last winter and spring pertaining to the primary election. But in his statement he seems not to re- member anything except those thinos which would be to the in- terest oT his si0e.
 We will try to answer that ad dress in a spirit of fairness to all
 .rties.
 On the first Monday in Janu- my last, the Democratic county eanLral committee met and aaopted a resolution inviting all whlte men who would agree to support the nominees to take r1t in the primary election. On ne ord of March the same com mjtre met and appointed what .a then believed and et)l be-
 -ye to Ue e.. esz.. a=s ol men
 judges to hold the mary.
 On the 5th dag ef arch the Hopalst county central commit ,oe met and deliberated on the invitation which bad oeen eX- ended to them. It looked Eko ae Democratic committee were attempting in good taita to unit
 . actions for honest and com potent men for office, with a view to eliminating all fraud and corruption; they were assured that they would not be expected to sarreeder their political con yictions; leading PopQlist were advised that 1t Was the desire o1 the Democrats that they should participate in the primary. Act ing on these assurances, and in the interest of peace and good government, after careful delib- eration, the Populist committee unanimously agreed to accept the invitation.
 On the 14th day of March a fea prominent PQpHlist8 got t9 gether and requested J. o. A. Bush to enter the race in the primary for representative and j. Nj. Pittman for county judge.
 On the 2Oth day Of March the Democratic sounty central com mitte met and took back water, and passed d resolution prohib- iting Populists from going into the primary
 We have never felt the least offended at the action of either committee, The Democrats first acted a- eT were moved bt n"trisie motives. but later they decided to hold the election with in their own party. This they certainly had a perfect right to do, anu nave never blamed them for it except we have regretted that their patriotic course was so short lived.
 Bul ,hes do not have the right to insist that anybody IS bound by that primary election. The resolution denying the Populists the privilege of voting in that primary, was adopted too late for the people to have notice of it. But few people in the county supposed there would be another ticket, and indeed there would not have if all parties had been permitted to vote in that pri- mary. But only in some of the tOunShipC WaC that inc caCa

DOGS TIED UP.
Very Few Seen About the Streets of
 City To-day.

City To-day.
 The ney dog law went into effect to-day and as result very few of the pets were at large, although one or two did get out and strolled into the center, where they were prompt ly taken in charge and hustled to the police station. Some of the dogs were out in autos. others rode in car rfages, few appeared in grocery wagons, while others trudged behind their masters attached to chains. Once in while lady appeared car- rying her pet in her arms, and owing to the excessive heat this was a pret- ty warm job. Judging by what one could notice on the streets the dog is by no means friendless. and yet near ly everybody believes that the second order is all right and wants to com ply with it. Dogs tied up should re- ceive lots of fresh water This is i'm portant and where anybody sees It overlooked he should remind the owner that now while the dog is re- strained it requires more attention than when it could trot around and provide for itself If you want to give your dogs plenty of room make a trolley by extending piece of wire with ring on 1t from one point to another, and by hitching the chain to the ring the dog can run back and forward the full length of the wire. Hang the wire about seven feet above the ground so that nobody will come in contact with it.
