War Over the Delegates.

In the northern part of the State
nearly all the republican county
central committees have appointed
delegates to the state convention, as
the committee in this county did,
and there is much dissatisfaction
which will tend to weaken party
strength when the election is held.
1t, is charged that appointments were
made in order to be sure that solid
delegations would be secured for j.
N. Gillett as candidate for governor.
That was not the case in this county,
>pu< the fact that the charge is made
with a great deal of irritation is a
bad beginning for a man who may
become the party nominee. although
it is not his fault.
In Amador county, where appoint
ments were made last week, meeting
OF republicans was called to consider
the action of the committee, aud the
Amador Ledger denounces the theory
of appointments in two columns of
space. The Sacramento Bee is also
out with general denunciation of
the course pursued in the northern
part OF the state by which the state
convention will be made up almost
entirely of appointed delegates except
where primary elections are required
by law.
The impoI lance of this state con-
Eention, by which all the state
officers, the congressman, state sena.
tors and assemblymen are nominated.
is so great that political action should
have emanated directly from the
people. As rnle, the personal char
acter and fitness of the delegates are
very good. but the principle of
government involved is very bad

AS to Wetting Pencils.

The act of putting lead pencil 10
the tongue to wet it Just before writ
ing, which is habitual with many
people, is one of the oddities for
which it is hard to give any reason,
unless it began in the days when
pencils were poorer than now, and
was continued by example to the next
generation.
ga lead pencil should. never be wet
1t hardens the lead and ruins the
pencil. This fact Is known to news
paper men and stenographers. But
nearly every one else does vet pen
ell before using it. The fact was de-
finitely settled by newspaper clerk
away down east. Being of a mathe-
NAUTICAL turn OF mind, he ascertained
by actual count that of fifty persons
who came into his Office to write an
advertisement or a church notice.
forty nine wet pencil in their
mouths before using it. Now, this
clerk always uses the best pencils,
cherishing good one with something
of the pride soldier feels in his gun
or his sword, and it hurts his feelings
to have his pencils spoiled. But
politeness and business considera-
tions requires him to lend his pencil
scores of times a day. And often,
after it had been wet till it was hard
and brittle and refused to mark, his
feelings would overpower him.
Finally he got some cheap pencils
and sharpened them and kept them to
lend The first person who took up
the stock pencil was a drayman,
whose breath smelt of onions and
whisky He held the point in his
mouth and soaked it several minutes,
while he was toIturing himself in the
effort to write an advertisement for
missing bulldog. Then a sweet-look-
ing lady came into the office. with
kid gloves that buttoned half the
length of her arm. She picked up the
same old pencil and pressed it to her
dainty lips preparatory TO writing an
advertisement for a lost bracelet.
The clerk would have stayed her
hand, even at the risk of box of the
best pencils, but he was too late.
And thus that pencil passed from
mouth to mouth for week. 1t was
sucked by people of all ranks and
stations, and all degrees of cleanliness
and uneleanliness.- But 'twere we'll
to forbear. Surely no one who reads
this will ever again wet lead pencil.
