J use 10. 187C. Ex-Govemor Woods for Vice-President. From tho Altn California. sow, -while that "slate" is being made, we ask for a recognition. We place before the country and the He publican Rational Convention, to meet in Cincinnati vdthin four weeks, the name of a gentleman known all over this coast, and as popular as well known. Tie lias been Govern or of Oregon y choics of the jpeople, and Governor .2 TJtsA by appoint ment of the Presilont, and in each case filled the office with great ability and satisfaction to the people. He is now a resident of this State and this city, a lawyer eloquent at the bar or on the stand, ever true as .steel to the cause of the country; -who has gone through such a furnace as that of Governor of Utah, coming out like the Hebrews, without -the smell or fire upon him. This man is ex-Governor George L. Wood, who has been named as a fit candidate for nomination for Vice-President on the Reiniblican ticket. AVc herewith' quote from the Salt Lake Tribune on' this subject, and endorse them so far as the character and fitness for the po sition of Governor Wood is in ques tion. He would prove a popular candidate. Prom the Salt Lake Tribune. If Mr. Blaine is to be the choice for President, and every day seems to add to his strength, we see no good reason why that staunch friend of Utah, Hon. George L. Wood, should not be put upon the Republi can ticket for Vice-President. This would be spanning the continent, choosing our highest officers from the , extreme east and the farthest west, and thus regarding the geographical equities of the case. The "New York Herald speaking of this eminent Statesman, says he "is mentioned in many quarters as a favorite Pacific coast candidate," and then correctly .speaks of him as ''a pioneer of early days, a statesman and one of the the he his .most accomplished orators in country." As Governor of Utah, won an enviable refutation, and friends among the non-Mormons in this heavenly kingdom are to be numbered by the thousands. In thes.e days of policy and self-seekhig. Gover nor Wood's gift of continuity, his firm and persistent devotion to principle, stands out prominently, and marks him as a man fitted to labor in a more extended sphere of usefulness. His ringing utterances on the platform have thrilled many -an ear, and in ad dition to his superior powers of ora tory, he possesses a .magnetism which attracts all with whom he comes in -contact. This was abundantly shown in August, 1874, when m this city an infuriated mob of nearly a thousand men threatened destruction to the U. S. Marshal's office, where the corruot -Jeter Clinton, a police magistrate of the most malig.isnt type was confined. Mounting a wagon which stood in the middle of the street, the personal pop ularity of the Governor won him a hearing, and in a few ' appropriate and well-chusen sentences he stilled the passions of his auditors and prevailed on them to disperse and go to their homes. As Governor of Oregon- and Utah, this Pacific coast statesman has won an honorable record, and no bet ter choice for the two highest offices in the Rejmblic could be made, than Blaine of Maine, and Wood of the Golden State.

An Editor's Appeal. As the report that we are very wealthy lias eone abroad Jamong our subscribers, and has made them awiui slow aoout paying up, tmnK ing, doubtless, we do not want the money, we hasten to say the report of our wealth is false in every particular. If ocea.i steamers were selling at a cent a dozen, we could not make the first payment on a canoe. The lightning of poverty has struck us square, and had it not been Jbr an armful of ha3' wlrch our devil man aged to steal irom a blind mule, our Jamily would be without a mouthful to eat at the pre ent moment. Is not this a sad picture, and can you de linquent subscribers look upon it without feeling the coin rattle with indignation in your pocket. "We do not like to dun you but we must if you fail to take the hint. Taki: Youk Local Pai'Ku. A man in Marion county last week saved 610 by taking hu local paper, tho Mercury, and there is a man in this county, near lirownsville, who told us, a chort time apo, that he had made anM)-acrc tract of Ian. by being a reader of the Demo crat, lie had been wanting for a long time to buy an M). adjoining his farm, but could get no track of the owner, who was a non-resident of the State, and finally saw it adveitiscd for tax sale in the Deinociat.
