The Weekly Gazette. ISSUED EVERY THURSDAY. Henry Kuchal, Charles Kuchal, Editors and Producers. THURSDAY AUGUST 21, 1800. It is unlikely that the Democratic aspirants for the county offices will be no numerous as their Republican brethren in this campaign. The Democrat are said to be simmering themselves down, and all material not capable of tip-top political wear and bear is being uprooted. Thus the members of that party who would announce themselves for office—and the number is small—are at this particular juncture being made to stand inspection of a very rigorous character. The chaff will be cast aside, and when the political wheat is separated, the Democrat will present a ticket for the various county offices composed of the very best and strongest citizens of the party. Our brethren of the unerrified will make a herculean effort to capture the county in November. At least that is the latest political talk that is heard coming from their mule council halls. Carrying out this programme, Tedford will be nominated for Assecor, Manley for School Superintendent, Jim Buckley for Sheriff, Capt. Keith for Treasurer, and the other offices to be filled with the pick of the remaining statemen in the party. The Republicans must look to their laurels if they aim to elect their ticket. Because the party has a comfortable working majority in the county is no reason why an incompetent or inferior man should be nominated. Let the convention select the very best material before it. Men whom the people can trust should be given preferment over those whose very nomination if but the forerunner of defeat. We have a plenty of aspirants for the different nominations. Whom shall we select, and whom throw overboard? Frank Ey announces himself as a candidate for Governor and Public Administrator, subject to the decision of the Republican County Convention. He will undoubtedly have the solid support of the people in this Superior district, and also has boats of friends throughout the county. Mr. Ey, honesty, integrity and worth, there has never been a question. He was for a long time Chairman of the Board of City Governors of this city, is a Grand Officer of My debt $23,800,250, the cash on land $156,442,791 94, the net debt $156,442,791 44, a decrease in the hundred and living debt of $288,078,691 44, and a decrease of $72,163,985 65 in the net debt. For California the statement shows hundred indebtedness of $229,566, a decrease of $372,500 for the past four years, a floating indebtedness of $2,264,600, a decrease of $326,000, cash and lands on hand $5,926,-993 33, an increase of $772,644 78, the excess of amends over debt having $2,923,295 23. The talks on the part of some Republicans, that Judge Cheney of Los Angeles, who for some time past has been temporarily sojourning at Arch Beach, would make a good candidate for Superior Judge in this county, is nothing less than stupid folly. That Mr. Cheney is an able jurist, there is no disposition to deny. But as he has no bonus file residence in this county, his nomination would be an act of insanity. It seems to us we have sufficient material at home from which to select the members of our judiciary. But if we have no party candidate to accept of the office, let us indorse Judge Towner. The question in reference to the poaching British sealsers in Alaskan waters is likely to become serious. A dispatch from Seattle states that the United States revenue cutter Corwin left on Monday for Alaska, presumably to capture British poachers. Sir Julian Paunceforte, the British Minister at Washington, the telegraph tells us, is on the point of demanding his passports. This will be a virtual declaration of war. As shown in the voluminous correspondence between FRANK EY announces himself as a candidate for Governor and Public Administrator, subject to the decision of the Republican County Convention. He will undoubtedly have the sole support of the people in this Supervisor district, and also has battles of friends throughout the county. Mr. Ey's honesty, integrity and worth, there has never been a question. He was for a long time Chairman of the Board of City Governors of this city, is a Grand Officer of the Grand Lodge of United Workmen, an officer of the Grand Council of the American Legion of Honor, and is well and favorably known generally. By nominating him the Republicans will add strength to the ticket. THE REPUBLICAN STATE CONVENTION, in session at Sacramento last week, completed its ticket as follows: Governor, Colonel H. H. Mackham of Pasadena; Lieutenant Governor, John B. Kolbick of Calaveras; Judge W. H. Beatty of Sacramento; Associate Justice C. H. Garoutte of Woodland; E. C. Harrison of San Francisco; John D. Haven of Eureka; Secretary of State, E. G. Watte of Alameda; Controller, E. P. Colgan of Sonoma; Treasurer, J. M. Donald of Santa Clara; Attorney General, W. H. Hart of San Francisco; Secretary General, Theodore Renchert of San Francisco; Clark of the Supreme Court, L. Hancock Valley; Superintendent of Public Works, W. Anderson of San Francisco; Congressman at Large, W. W. Morrow of San Francisco; L. Campbell of Stockton; Mr. Morrow has declined to be a candidate; George Ranhard of El Dorado is nominated to Congress in the Second District, and Joseph McKinna renominated in the Third. The other Congressmen have not yet been nominated. William Beckman of Sacramento is nominated for Railroad Commissioner in the First District, and James W. Rea in the Third district unnamed. Daniel City of Sarra City is nominated for the Board of Equalization. WITNESS IN THE SANTA ANA FREE PRESS or its trucking editor are for sale or not, is a matter to which we in common, we opine, with Community of people here and at Santa Ana press ourselves supremely indifferent. Whether the impressible and shining light of our contemporary spoke truthfully last week when he announced that the columns of his paper were for sale—excepting those devoted to his "Editorials"—or whether, gophering, he uses the truth this week in saying that his columns are open only to advertisements of an unobjectionable nature, is a question too difficult for us to determine. The probabilities are that, having been caught in a very bad predicament, he falls back upon his usual practice and attempts by hatreds distortion of truth, to snag himself out of it.

A dispatch from Seattle states that the United States revenue cutter Corwin left on Monday for Alaska, presumably to capture British poachers. Sir Julian Paunceforte, the British Minister at Washington, the telegraph tells us, is on the point of demanding his passports. This will be a virtual declaration of war. As shown in the voluminous correspondence between Blaine and Salisbury, there can be no question as to our rights in Alaskan waters, so far as seal taking is concerned. The American people do not want war, but if it is going to come through British dominoering, swell and bluster, let it come. We still have memories of Lexington and Bunker Hill and Valley Forge. We'll teach them the lessons of 76 and 1812 over again. In a word, we'll twist the hone tail, and pull it off just behind the ears. THE BANNING HEAD proclaims the Whittier Pointer to be the dullest paper among its exchanges. Now, if it will tell us which is the brightest but that is unnecessary. Of course THE GAZETTE is. BROTHER BENTLEY of the Azusa News awoke one night last week and found himself famous. A tar and feather party, composed of indignant subscribers, awaited at the door, and Bentley was led away gently and made to suffer the indignity of a tar and feather dressing. The incident will draw attention to the fact that some editors are luckier than others. Now that Bentley has become famous, we rise to nominate him for committee honors in the Editorial Association. The Fruit Crop In every part of Southern California where fruit growing is the industry there has never been anything like the activity there is now, not even in the liveliest days of the boom of 1887. From Tehachapi to San Diego the sole topic of conversation among all classes is concerning the enormous yield of fruit and the remarkably large prices that have been and are being paid for the products. The orchardists everywhere in this part of the State are wild with delight. All the canneries and fruit-drying establishments in the southern part of the State want help to handle the crops, and for nearly two months have been in full blast day and night and Sundays. The peach and prune crops are now being handled, and in the Pomona valley there are over $00 people engaged in picking, canning and drying the fruit. The growers get $40 and $45 a ton for the dried product. Prunes are by far the best crop ever known in Southern California, and $50 a ton is paid for them. There are hundreds of orchardists who get from $350 to $400 an acre for their prune crop this season. Next comes the fig and grape crops, and for each one of these there are better offers than any farmer has dreamed of for several years. There are not less than thirty agents for fruit and commission houses in San Francisco, Chicago and St. Louis travel... Two years ago District Attorney Kelly, when attempting the county for office, was sent to say, "Electric me and Martin Aguirre District Attorney and Sheriff, and we'll send every criminal in the county to San Quentin." Well let none escape. Although Kelly was elected, we are content to say it was in face of our earnest protest. He has been tried, and found wanting. His administration of the District Attorney's office has been perfect keeping with his incompetency to conduct its affairs. His office has been scuffed at on all sides. He will never fill it again. Since writing the above, we see it stated that Kelly is desirous of going to the Legislature. Los Angeles has sent notorious persons to the legislature before—notably the former Damron. But we hardly think that Kelly will go to the Assembly. It is but just to say that Aguirre, who has filled his office acceptably, is a candidate for reelection, and will probably be Sheriff again—he deserves to be. We have received from the Pension Office a very interesting statement on the indebtedness of the various States and the nation as a whole. The bonded debt of the United States on May 1st was $719,178,570, a decrease of $990,814,530 for the ten years; the floating debt was $836,452,329 78, an increase of $423,839,452 39; the cash on hand was $632,254,790 42, an increase of $421,166,627 54, and the net debt was $823,376,119 36, a decrease of $999,141,205 15. The bonded debt of the various States on June 1st amounted to $194,800,371 88, the float- serious Accident to L. B. Cramer. From the San Jose Mercury of August 14th we take the following account of a serious accident that happened to L. B. Cramer, who until recently drove the street car in this city: Leon B. Cramer, the conductor on car No. 10 of the Electric railway, met with a severe accident yesterday afternoon at the Alameda, near the junction of Grant and Belomy streets in Santa Clara. He was going into the town and as he neared the switch at the beginning of the single track he stood upon the moving motor car, detached the trail car and then jumped from the motor car to the ground. His foot struck upon a rock which turned him on his knees in front of the trail car which was still moving. Before he could arise the car struck his head, knocking him prostrate. It ran up on his body, the brake-beam striking him in the right side. His foot was upon the rail, but the wheel ran upon the heel of his shoe and stopped. A workingman' bound for the end of the line to put a derailed car upon the track, was upon the car, and jumping off lifted it off the prostrate man. He was put into a baggy and quickly taken to his room in the St. Dennis House on Santa Clara street. Dr. Potts was called and upon examination found two ribs broken on the right side, the shoulder badly bruised and a number of scratches on his face. Last night he was resting family and his injuries, though severe, are not expected to result fatally. Irrigation Man. A letter from G. Q. Wright, author of the Act under which the irrigation district of the State are working, written to a gentleman of San Bernardino, contains the following information: "Turlock Irrigation District has sold S.

Editor Gazette. - A little too much work and business hindered me from replying to his honor's prattle of the 7th instant. I will any that personalities would never have come into this controversy had he not thrown mud first, but acted wisely when I complained about bad roads, attended to his business and been silent like a good public servant would be. Concerning threats, I deny making any, and ask Brother Armor to stick to the truth. His explanation about the Olive road was quite uncalled for, since we all are better posted on this than he is able to explain to us. But he cannot forget those mill teams! I must also correct him in reference to the Dillin, so called by him. This extra work was done by Mr. Thomas Dillin, now deceased, who was my worthy partner for years, and myself, and the young Miss Dillin attended to the business for us. Give credit to whom it is due, please. Don't he consider himself a martyr, though, inasmuch as he is trying to act as a Supervisor for the pitiable sum of $423 per month, or $500 per year, or $6 to $8 per day. No wonder there are now so many who are ready to sacrifice themselves to suffer for the good people of this county, to which he urges us to be loyal—and we are most thoroughly. But we ask not to be treated like step-children, for we will not only kick over... The Democratic State Convention A dispatch from San Jose, dated Monday, says: The streets were filled with marching delegations all this afternoon and this evening, and when the last train arrived tonight the city seemed to be overflowing. The sidewalks were blocked in front of the hotels and headquarters, and everybody was talking about the various phases of the convention which will be opened to morrow. Congressman Thomas J. Clunie arrived at 4 o'clock and was received by a committee and escorted to the California Theater, where a public reception was given him by the citizens of San Jose, as a mark of appreciation of his efforts in securing the new public building for the city. Besides the regular delegates to the convention, various political clubs have been arriving all day and marching from the railroad station to their headquarters accompanied by bands of music. Among the largest organizations were the Manhattan Club of San Francisco, and the Tammy Club of Los Angeles, which arrived at 8 o'clock this evening. Practically all the delegates are on the ground to-night and the supporters of the different gubernational candidates are making an active canvass, but the principal interest is taken in the result of the endeavor of Stephen M. White to secure the endorsement of the convention for United States Senator. The question of indorsing White for United States Senator has cut a great figure in the chairmanship of the convention, but the matter seems to be settled definitely now, and the probabilities are that there will be no contest to-morrow in the selection of chairman. Byron Waters of San Bernardino was at first regarded as the only candidate for the chairmanship, but ex-Congressman James H. Budd of Stockton afterward appeared in the field. Mr. Budd, however, expressed no great desire for the position, as he preferred to be on the floor to tight Whit's indorsement and also to place A. C. Paulsell in nomination for the Governorship. He said he was willing to retire from the contest provided Waters would give son a assurance that he would not attempt to restrict the debate on the proposition to indorse Whit's. Mr. Waters has evidently given this assurance, as the representatives of the four gubernatorial candidates held a campaign rally. Thanking the Public for liberal patronage in this hope, by fair dealing and low prices, to merit the same in these respectfully yours. S. S. FEDERMAN.

RAILROAD COMMISSIONER, 3D DISTRICT Grand Free Dinner. The semi annual meeting of the soil tillers of Orange county will be held at Westminster, Wednesday, September 3d. We desire to make this the largest gathering of farmers and fruit growers, and their families, ever held in Southern California. We want to have a grand time—socially and intellectually. A grand picnic that shall elapse any ever held in Santiago canyon; only the dinner will be furnished free by the large-hearted citizens of Westminster. They will be prepared to entertain a thousand people; every body in the county will be welcome. Papers will be read and discussions he on question of great interest to all of us. And a grand, genuine, old-fashioned Kentucky "Hargeo" dinner will be furnished free, the only stipulation being that each man, woman and child must bring a tin cup and spoon. Meeting begins at 10 a.m. and closes at 5 p.m. It is a pleasant drive to Westminster or we all ought to go and take our wives, or sisters, our cousins and our saints. D. EISON SMITH, Secretary. Those who do not know what a "Bargoon" dinner is, must come to Westminster and see. The canna office has approximately computed the amount of the population of the United States. There are, however, about 1,200 enumeration districts the returns from which have not yet been received. In some sequence of this delay, the announcement of the population of several States cannot be made for some time yet. The much in this time shows an aggregate of 68,749 and when the report will be finished, the population of the country will be about 690,000, or hundreds of about 30 per cent during the drought.

HOOD & CO., Apothecaries, Lowell, Mass. 100 Doses One Dollar Wonders Are wrought by the use of Ayer's Hair Vigor in restoring gray hair to its original color, promoting a new growth, preventing the hair from falling, keeping it soft, silky, and abundant, and the scalp cool, healthy, and free from dandruff or humors. The universal testimony is that this preparation has no equal as a dressing, and is therefore indispensable to every well-furnished toilet. "I have used Ayer's Hair Vigor for some time and it has worked wonders for me. I was troubled with dandruff and was rapidly becoming bald; but since using the Vigor my head is perfectly clear of dandruff, the hair has ceased coming out, and I now have a good growth, of the same color as when I was a young woman. I can heartily recommend any one suffering from dandruff or loss of hair to use Ayer's Hair Vigor as a dressing." — Mrs. Lydia O. Moody, East Pittston, Me. "Some time ago my wife's hair began to come out quite freely." Ayer's Hair Vigor not only prevented my wife from becoming bald, but it also caused an entirely new growth of hair. I am ready to certify to this statement before a justice of the peace." — H. Hulsebus, Lewisburg, Iowa. "Some years ago, after a severe attack of brain fever, my hair came out. I used such preparations for restoring it as my physicians ordered, but failed to produce a growth of hair. I then tried, immediately, several articles recommended by draughtsmen, and all alike fell short of accomplishing the desired result. The last remedy I applied was Ayer's Hair Vigor; which brought a growth of hair in a few weeks. I think eight bottles in two years; more than necessary as a restraint, but I liked it as a dressing, and have continued to use it for purposes. I believe Ayer's Hair Vigor possesses value for almost all my preparations on the market." — Thomas James, Minneapolis, MN. Ayer's Hair Vigor MR. J.C.AYER & CO., LINCOLN, MASS.
