    FfelDAY... JUNE 30, 1882
STue California State Democratic
Convention adjeurneJ on the 24th
iast. Gen. Oeo. Stonstuau heads the
ticket for Governor, and John Daggett
for Lieut. Governor,
A f RnRlBL'fi accident occurred u;ar
San Francisco last 8unday Several
young people were riding along a high
road, with a deep ravine below it.
Through the gross carelessness of the
driver the whole were thrown down
a deep precipice about two hundred feet
to the grouud below. Ten out of twelve
will probably die from the effects of
the catastrophe, mist of them already
being dead.
It is pretty generally conceded that
Gen. Sbeneman's nomination is the
strongest the Democracy eould have
wade. he strongest opposition to his
election will come from the great rail
road corporations iu the State, for the
reason, that Gen. Stoneman ha?, during
the six year of his service as railroad
commissioner of the State, taken the
part of the people in all railroad ques
tions. Taking the whole ticket togeth
er, it is without exception a good one,
and, if the democrats of the State do
their duty, victory is assured in the
coming election.
Whilst the republican members of
the next Legislature, are discussing the
relative merits of the vaiious aspirants
for the United States Senate, would it
not be well for the democratic members
to spend their time considering the
wants of the people T There is much
needed legislation, and the time which
intervenes between now and the con
vening of ihe legislature, will give those
interested in the welfare of the State,
ample opportunity to prepare such
measures as are most desired
It would be very mnch better for
all concerned, if the laws, were
so fixed that the Legislature eould only
meet once in ten years, and then be
confined to repealing acts already pass
ed. But such is not the case, and, in
asmuch as we must be at Hie ted at least
once in every two years, let the mem
bars set themselves to work to amend
those of our laws which are known to
be most faulty.

in the House of Representatives, re
fused to seat Gen. Chalmers, elected to
Congress from the shoe-st dag District
in Mississippi, and gave his pi ice

John K. Lynch his cob red opponent
Chalmers jumped at the conclusion, that
if the Democrats in Congress had stood
by him, all would have been well De
termined to rule or ruin, he has an
nouneed himsslf a an independent
cndidat3 for Congress in the new con
srreesional district, and intends to
olahoazie Mississippi. Strong to
say, the men who kicked him out of the
: a -
nil is st uongreas are now nis sworn
friends, and are aiding him in his new
departure. We think the people
his district are too smart to be hood
winked by such an arrant traitor, and
Chalmers will ere long conclude that
the way of the transgressor is bard.
At the present writing, there seems
to be no hope f r Guiteau, and he must
expiate his dastardly crime upon the
allows. His very name has become a
stench in the nostrils of the civilized
world, and a synonym for all that is
degraded and unhallowed. On the day
that this paper i3 issued, Guiteau will
dangle, at the end of a rope, a Zt termi
nation of a mis-spent life. The wheels
of justice in this particular instance,
have indeed moved slowly, but the
majesty- of the law will finally fee vindi
eated. It will be a source of some con
aolatieh to the people, when in a few
days they met ta celebrate the anni
versary ef the nation's birthday, to
know, that the miserable wretch, who
one year age, in his dastardly assault
upon iht President, aimed a blow at the
life of the Republic, has at last been
offered up as a sacrifice te apjiease the
wrath of an outraged people.

It is very amusing to observe how
the editor of the Orfgo aapu-nlH
over the result of the city election re
oontly held in Tcu-tland. Advocating
as he does the principle of personal
independence in jtolitics, and drnouno
ing at all times in the strongest terms,
"ftoMi Wnd machine rule, no sooner
is an attempt made to carry into exe-
cntiod his teachings than bwwt eaee
sets himself to work to show that the Re
publican party is in danger and that the
regular Republican nominee aro the
proper men to support. It will be re
membered, that shortly after the regu
lar Republican ticket was nomin it' ll

ent Republicans, inspired, no doubt,
by the teaching of the ablo editor of
the Orsgonian, assembled in eonven.
tion, and the result of their delibera
tions was a ticket selected in great part
from the nominees of the Republic in
and Democratic parties men whom
they considered to to free from the in
flueneo of ring rulo and jierty Ikh.M!s.
The Oreyontan forthwith came to tho
rescue of the Republican ticket, aud
a s
whilst it praised the motives which in
spired the boltors, it denied that they
had occasion to abandon the party ship
at that particular Juncture, and leut
its influence to the election of tho reg
ular ticket. It was supposed that .he
result of the recent election in Multn
malt county would forever put an end
to bolting, but not so, as witns tue
city election held in Portland just t wo
weeks after the general election As
the Ocrjonian of tl.o '23rd iusr, sorrow
fully puts it, boltinst "got a grand lift

among the bolters the chairman of the

the chairman of the Republican county

one of these ouricus little documenta,
that find their way into the bards of
every eflicer, clerk, and employee in tLe

editorial In the UaWy titem:,t of the
J th lnst. in answer to nn nrticb; in the
last jasm of this paper, criticizing Mr.
George's action in lelatton to the appro-
priation for xTauioa I y :
'Two years ago tho Democrat a woie
very anxious to have Hon. dohn Whit
eaker returned to Oongraas, holding
that he wan an able Cjngri smimu and a
friend of Yaqeinn Hay, anil yet Cov.
Whiteaker was fortified by the petition
mon tinned fresh from the Legislative
Assembly, and by his hvrcuh an efforts
in a .Democratic Congress loqosojdad iu
getting an apropiiation for the Ya-
quina Bay of 8 1 0,000, allof which waa
due to the labora of Col. II oca mateiul
of Congrensmaii Whfttakef, for it in
truo that Whiteakvir nevor went before

tien, and when iho bill caoqe ui from
the proper commitute for action in the
Ilouae. Whiteaker nevei ruoved to
amend the bill so an to giyo a lirfel
sura to Ysqulna Kay.''
It is a oor apology for Mr. (Jeorge
to say, that because his predecessor did
not du more foi bin constituency in ne
ooring a larger appropriation for V
quinu Day, therefore no blutn j ought to
be attached to Mr. Ctmrge fur his
neglect of duty. lion. John Whiteaker
deserved more credit for securing nn
appropriation af $I0,00 tor the pur
posea mentio:iHl, in the lat (Jon.qreun,
than dooa Mr. fJaorgefjr securing $oJ,

that Mr. CbtOtgl m placed on the ooaa
taittee, where he aould have hud $J00,
000 inserted in the mrr nnl batbot
appropriation bill as eaxily aj not,
WiUi Mr. Whiteaker, the ce was
different. Ui wuh not a meet her of the
commiUeu that virtually had the fratu
jng of the bill t o yuir ago, anl win n
tl bill finally wm up for action iu
the House, it was no late in thi K'MMin,
that it was folly to at Out, t to amend
It Acting upn the piiuc j.ie, that
half a leaf was better than none, Mr.
Whiteaker was forced to nubmit to tho
inevitable, and Uke what be could get,
and his constituents have given him

been similarly situated we would not
say a word againat him.
The idea that to Cob Hog is due

The following statement nf Wm. J:
Cooahlln, of Somerville, Mutt, is so re
markable that we beg to oak for It the at
tentronofour readers. He nsy: "In the
fall of 1870 I was taken with a violent
bleedbiff of the lonas, followed by a
vera oou(h. 1 noou liegan to lose my flesh
and appetite. I ww ho week at one lime,
thst I oould not leave my bed. In tbe
Mummer of 1H77 I won admitted to the OHv
HoHplul. While t bore the doctor said 1
had a hole in my left lung sn big a half a
dollar. I expended over a hundred dollar
on doctors' and medicines. I was so far
gone at one time a report went around
that I was dead. I gave up hope, but a
friend told me of DR. WM. IIAMS UAL
SAM FOR THK LUNGS. I Isughed at
my friend, thinking that my caoe was in
curable, but I got a bottle to ssiify them,
when to my surprise and grati neat ion, I
began to fuel better. My hope, on;'e dead,
began to revive, and to day 1 feel in rener
spirits than I have the past three year.
"I write thin, hoping that you will pub
lish tt, so that every one aftllcted with dls
coitod Innir will hn induce:! to rake Dr.
Wm. Hall'it ltalwim for the Langs, and be
convinced that CONSUMPTION AN BB
