The candidate for supreme judge

ago which was interpreted by
many voters to mean that the killing or

not entitle the parents to as large an
amount of damages, as if the victim
was the offspring of rich parents. It

REPUBLICAN LEGISLATURE,
The new (California legislature which |

This county elected four Repub
lican assemblymen and two senators
out of a total of seven legislators. The
one assembly district that went Demo- |
cratic usually gives a majority of not
less than 1000 for the Democratic nom- |
inee, who by the way has served one |
term and is a very decent and capable
fellow, was re-elected, barely by the
skin of his teeth.
REPUBLICAN TIDAL WAVE,
Such is the Republican tidal wave |
that has swept over the Golden State,
heretofore generally the doubtful
column, in this beneficent year of grace.
Washington and Oregon also are in the
in
1 Republican line, and upon the whole |
the Pacific Coast has given the splen- |
did admoistration of President Me- |
Kinley a most emphatic endorsement. |
Even Nevada, the sagebrush state, has |
been almost redeemed from the sway |
of the free silver cranks. Arizono alone
of the commonwealths in the far west |
has disgraced herself, by turning down |
the gallant Maj. Brodie of Roosevelt’s |
:
| Rough Riders, as delegate in congress, ,
by electing a free silver Democrat in- |
stead. Benighted New Mexico did bet-
ter than that, for even that Democratic
elected a Republican dele- |
gate. Arizona has high aspirations for
statehood, but I am badly mistaken if
her action in sending a Democrat to
congress does not give her a setback
for some years to come.
The great surprise of the election in
this state was the big Republican vote
in San IFrancisco which was carried by
the Republican candidate for governor
about 3400 plurality, against the
usual Democratic majority in that city
of 5000 to 10,000.
Fusion is a dead California,
and unless the Republican oftice-hold-
ers make some egregious blunders dar-

Another Electric Light Proposition.
President Boswell, of the Merchant
| Coal Company, has made what we con-
sider an exceedingly liberal proposition
for the purpose. of giving Salisbury a
good electric light service. The ptopo-
sition, as stated to Tne Star, is. that
Mr. Boswell offers to put in enough in-
condescent lights to light our streets as
| good or better than the light usually
| given by the few scattered arc lights
usually found in towns the size of Sal=
isbury.
‘For this service, we are informed,tha
town is to grant a five-yeat franchise
and pay $200 per month for street light

[lights to go to the borough.

order the |
If the proposition was correctly stat-
ed to Tur Star, we think the town
ought to jump at the chance, for we
feel sure that the borough could make
| more out of private lights than it would
ministration the railroads of the coun- |
try did not need more than half the!
cars that are required to handle their |
require to pay for the street lights.
The Merchant Company has a large
electric plant at their mines, and this
plant being practically idle at night,
| enables the company to give this town
‘cheap light.
Now then, let our leading citizens and
the Town Council get a move on them,
and let no man be guilty of sitting on the
tail of progress. ‘God helps those who
help themselves,” and now is our tims
to help our to n and litt it from dark-
ness into light.
