Year: 1873

FRIEND WALKUp: The writer would like
70 be informed what great things Governor
Booth or the Republican party have done for
the benefit of the taxpayers of this, or any
other county in our State? ! fail to find any
more of good, wholesome legislation in that
party at present than in the past. | think
we can find some upright Democrat that is
worthy of our cause, and that the people
may trust. Governor Booth is a good man,
but he don't suit Democrats any better than
any other Republican, and if he is to be
sent 10 the Senate, let his own party send
him, and do their own dirty work, as Dem
ocrats have enough to care for in our own
party. We want no more humbuggery.
All the leading Republicans in the United
States are in favor of subsidy and favor
ing all monopoies, which is proven in all
cases, for the last ten years. Let us have
something now to benefit the poor man, or
let the Republicans run the government un-
til the people say they are tired. The Sac
ramento Record says the Democrats have
found one good man, Governor Bradley.
This is great discovery for such paper.

Our correspondent head is level if Booth is
still, as would seem from the outgivings OF
bis organ, determined to adhere to the rotten,
sinking, Credit Mobilier party. 1t is also
true that nine-tenths of the leading Republi-
cans, and the entire organization of the party
are in the hands of the monopolists, and en-
gagged in bleeding and robbing the people in
co,r oc tIoct md . hut this IonS
not include all those who have, hereto ore
acted with the Republicans. The Republican
party is not only dead, but it actually
stnketh in the nostrils of the people, so far
as getting a new grant Of power from free
voters; but it is not dead so far but its old
officials can steal from and rob the people /;
the tail will live, as we used TO say when
mashng the head of the serpent, till sun
down, and we want that to be on the even
ing of sundown on next election day, so fai
as this State is concerned. All the rascals
and purchasable material in the State is now
in the Republican party, and we want tC
open the door to the honest men yet there
that are halting and hesitating to step into al
honest party of the people. Hence we have
said, and will now say, show your repent
ance by your works. if you boldly join us,
you share in our honors and defeats. We
do not offer b. 9th the Senatorshp as a bribe
to make him an anti-monopoist, for if that ia
the price of his principles, then would he be
disgrace to our party. The course OF
Booth and the Union in trying to hold ant.
monopoly Republicans in the Mobilier, mon
opoly party is causing doubts to arise all
over the country as to whether they are not
both really working at heart for Stanford &
Co. Let this be as it may, that is the re-
suit Of their action, and the Union is worth
ten votes to Stanford for one the Record is.
Booth pledged himself, when he was elected
Governor, that he would serve out his full
term in that office. This pledge was an
nounced to the people through the Undon
positively asserting that he would not ever
resign to be made Senator. If Booth ant
the Union have violated that sacred pledge
to the people, without which he could no
have been governor, what security have we
that he will not take the Senatorship now
from the monopoly, and leave the State
completely in Stanford's hands with Pacheco
and a chickadee Legislature to do bis bid
ding ia the robbery, and binding the State
in Infamous contracts for generations.
