POLITICS IN SACBAMEKTO. TICKET. CARD FROM W. J. GURNfrT.

betting Sribnnc. ADVERTISEMENTS. THE BAN JOSE PLAN. Tbfe municipal election at Rati Ja.a The ticket'ihs had of these col umns is the one we shall labor to elect Until the polls close on Monday lW. J.

Gurnet is our choice for Mayor for severai Important reasons. In regard to politics thersis perhaps no choice between Gurnett and WebbeT-both being Republk cans; but the former possesses qualifications for the position in other retpects vastly superior to those of his opponent. Gurnett has an extensive acquaintance throughout the State. He was an active and useful member of the last legislature from this county, and served the State faithfully as a member of some of the most important committees of that body. He always was on the alert to guard the interests of Alameda county, and mea ures affecting the welfare of Oakland received his careful attention.

Personally, he is an affable gentleman, ever ready to accord to every man a patient, respectful hearing and possessing nerve enough to say no, if the occasion demands a negative. In other words he is a posi tive man, without being stubborn or self-willed. Withal, he is quick of per ception and not easily deceived. His business affairs afford him plenty of leisure to devote to the duties of the position if elected, and he will always be found at his poet. In another column will be found his card of acceptance of the nomination tendered by the Citizens' Convention to which we invite the attention of the reader.

It is a manly, fearless, straightforward explanation of his candidacy and will increase his popularity, inspire hip friends to labor in his behalf with increasea energy. The names presented for Council are each and all the best that could be selected from the different tickets in the field; and on the whole, we doubt if a better ticket could be made up roiu the field at large. If we are not greatly deceived, there never has been presented to the voters of Oakland so strong an array of names for Council as herewith set forth: John M. Miner is one of our every day, careful, sensible business men, Jas. Dods is of the same stripe of business men, and possessed of leisure enough to do excellent duty in the city government.

Jas. W. Shanklin is an experienced legal gentleman of a kind that can be very useful in a municipal government. These three men have been our favorites in advance of all noin mating conventions or what-not. We feel safe in saying, that so long as they are in the council, no sort of jobbery and double-dealing will be tolerated.

The names of John W. Pearson and Asa Howard are taken from the "Citizen" ticket, brought out yesterday. Pearson is one of the largest property owners in the city, and is doing more to improve the city at present, than any one other man. He is wide awake, energetic and enterprising to the last degree, and his claims to a seat in the Council are very superior indeed. The west end of the city, too, demands a strong influential member in this department of the Government; it is assuming an importance in a business way that is second to no district in Oakland; in fact, "the Point," as we familiarly designate it, is destined to head the great distinguishing feature of Oakland as a commercial and manufacturing city, and at the present stage of the game more than ever, do we need the services of influential business men to represent the city therefrom.

We don't want any common-place, weak person from the end of town that comes directly in contact with San Francisco, and her capitalists in quest of places to invest their money. Let the voter who looks to the future importance of Oakland, bear these points in mind next Monday, In Asa Howard, all parts of the city will find an able and warm friend; he is one of, the oldest and most respected citizens; has acted as Justice of the Peace at the East End, for years, and is familiar with every Oakland interest, and condition of government. He ought to be elected, and we have no-doubt will be. I Henry Hillybrand, City Treasurer, is one of the most capable and trust- worthy officials that ever any country knew in this world; he has gone right along in the path of duty, turning neither to the right or left to curry favor with any one; eo important is the good care of the city's funds, that the re-election of HUlebrand is comparative necessity. The' re-election of Joseph M.

Dillon to the City Assessorship is even a "military necessity," recognized by every man, woman and child. Of our ticket for Board of Education, only a word need be said. Messrs. Cole, Sweet, Rowell and Folger have been tried and not found wanting, except that at time's they have needed a little belaboring with a stuffed club. Dr.

Cary is not an inexperienced man in educational legislation, though a name new to Oakland, officially. He ought to make a ver useful member. These is no inan at the Point better qualified for the position of Councilman man Air. j. w.

rearson. He is a stirring business man, a large property owner, and is personally interested in the welfare and prosperity of that end of town. He ought to receive the solid rot of West Oakland Precinct and it is pretty certain that he will. It must be severe blow to a certain school official, to have the woman movement utterly fail. Being so weak a sister himself, he needed every aid possible, Richxoxd, February 86th.

Ex-Senator Nye, of Nevada, has entirely recovered from his illness, and will leave hers to-morrow on the Northern train: The municipal campaign just inaugu rated in Sacramento, develops sclera) points of general interest. iinss are fully drawn between Democrats and Republicans. The former made nominations and issued a platform Thursday afternoon of this week. The nominations were made by a Convention of one hundred delegates chosen by the Central Committee. The platform is almost wholly devoted to reform in local Government we should say very radical reform, viewed from this distance.

They say that the offices of" City Auditor, Assessor and Tax Collector should be consolidated with the office of County Recorder, etc, that they could all be run on the consolidated plan without any additional expense to the county. They have an office up there called the "City Tapper," which the Democrats want to abolish, and save the city $2,400 per year. The clerk of the City Water Works has been employing an assistant at $1,200 per year no man, they say, should be elected clerk who will not agree to do all the work himself. It Beems that the city has a Soperintendant of Cemetery, who has perquisites, besides a salary of $900 per year; they propose that the salary be dropped. They are for practically abolishing the office of City Treasurer, and save the city $1,000 per year; they claim that any responsible bank will give security to run the financial department for the use of the moneys.

Sacramento has' a Harbor Master at a monthly salary of $120 the Democrats claim that there are plenty of good men who would attend to the duties for $75. These are the main points in brief, of the platform in question, and so far as we can see, it "means business." Moreover, the city Trustees are to act hereafter without pay, providing the Democrats succeed at the election. What the Republicans will do on these points, has not been developed. They make nominations today on the Crawford county primary plan, and also v6te whether they will abide by that system hereafter. Altogether, it will be Been, that there is much worthy of special observation in the Sacramento programme, and we shall note the results accordingly.

The election takes place on the 9th of next month. It is evidently an eleotion that will demonstrate the real tendency of party in the interests of economical local government. The city of Sacramento owns a water woiks of its own the Hollv svstem The water is pumped out of the river, and distributed throughout the city in the usual way. The water works ques tion is one that concerns Oakland Elsewhere we give an outline of Sacramento politics, one feature of which will some dav interest the people of Oakland. How soon, it is hard to sav.

There are lots of neonle anxious that the city shall own the Cha- bot works, that they may stand a show of getting office. There are not places enough at present too many, pigs for tne teats, as once remarked. Jt seems me people oi Sacramento want to dispense with tne office of "Tapper" compel the extramen of the Fire Department to attend to the duties of Tapper. and save the city $2,400 per year; also cut on an Assistant Clerkship, etc. It will be readily seen what fine ooeninos for young men too lazy to saw wood or otnerwise earn an honest at least, in dependentlivelihood, can be made by Oakland's purchase of the Chabot works.

It is probable that the city might make money in the long run, by a judicious purchase of these works at an early day; it is a matter that should be clearly and officially set forth, however, before final action is had. It is a question for intelligent and honest statesmanship, and not one to be entrusted to the mercy of one- horse politicians. The recent Convention called by the Republican City Central Committee was Republican only in name no member oi tne party considered it as a representative Convention. It was simnlv a sub committee called for the purpose of far thering certain schemes of certain parties, working through the Central Committee. Even the Delegates to the Convention did not consider themselves bound to stand by their own action; and it was distinctly stated by the Chairman that no Delegate was under any obligation to support the ticket.

Consequently, from the adjournment to the present time. there has been discord and dissatisfac tion. Gentlemen who took nart in ihn Kepablican Convention have also participated in the nomination of an op posing ticket. So general has been the sloughing off of delegates, that if the Convention were to be called together today, it would be but a skeleton of its former "solid" and "respectable" pro portions. And this is the result of a professed desire upon the part of the Central Committee to promote limrmony ana pxtruy in pontics! It is not unlikely that the bickerings and animosities engendered by the city election will extend to the Fall campaign and seriously affect the Kepublican party's prospects, if not cause its disruption and defeat.

The ends of those who influenced the Central Committee to depart from "established usage," were not wholly attained; but whatever of good there in the Con. vention, was the result of accident rather than design. Thk Associated Press "telegraphed it over the land, that ths successor of Sen ator Carpenter was going to throw the nepuoncan party. The same authority has been compelled to send out the following dispatch of very different color: i XlXWAVKataC VlK a.i-0IM IMMlaa Baa. aor elect, left to-day for Washington.

Thx reader 'will find leading extracts from a speech by Senator Carpenter on the first page of to-day's Tsxbuhi. This great speech was delivered in "Wisconsin a day or two after his defeat in the Legislature. It was a great' and patriotic effort a searching review of National questions; questions' vital as to the existence ofthe Government itself. The history of the amendments and their fate, should the Democracy obtain full control of the General Government could not be set forth in a clearer light It is a critical period in the history of the country, and every voter should correctly inform himself aa to' the. issues of 1876.

Thx mote to have a representation of the fair sex in the next Board of Education, has totally collapsed through the withdrawal of Carr. Her card shows good sense on her part, but it does not review the entire situation how the very numerously signed petitions in favor of the origional programme were as good as snubbed in a convention whose members had professed the usual sympathy (on paper) with the movement. We doubt if ever another attempt be made to carry out the programme in this city. Mrs. Carr is to be congratulated in having at the eleventh hour, avoided what promised to be even a more unpleasant position.

i The Transcript accuses the jVVics of inconsistency in supporting Mr. Hille-brand for City Clerk because Mr. H. is a frArman miA iwM TOa-no wan Iaa.1 a tion The Transcript argues that all Germans are anti-local optionists4-and yet is begging German votes for it's relative Reed who was a most rabid screecher for local option, and who wis ready and, willing to assist in the. hanging or burning at the stake of any person opposed to local option.

Perhaps he was only playing for local option votes, and was' even at that early day looking ahead to the present contingency. To the average person it would Seem that the inconsistency is on the part of the Transcript whiph announced the decision of the Supreme Court against the validity of the local option law on it's bulletin board as "OUR VICTORY." But then ought not to censure ths Transcript for trying to foist a relative upon the city especially when it hopes to reap pecuniary reward in a monthly stipend roni the city Thk Republican Convention so-called, made a great mistake in the sel ection of Mr. Huntington as Councilman from West Oakland. He is a retiring, quiet a peaceable citizen who has' paid no attention to municipal affairs, and has no knowledge of the workings of the city government. We understand that he is indifferent as to the result of the election.

It seems to be the general opinion of people at the Point that the Convention ought to have selected the candidate from old and well-known res idents instead of choosing a tive stranger. We needs compara- poaiitve. active, bright, intelligent men in the council during the coining year more than at any other period of, the city's history, There are schemes on foot that have a direct bearing upon the Attare prosperity of Oaklank, and the occasion demands far-seeing vigilant men in the Council. Mr. Huntington as neat as we can learn does not come up to the standard in any respect, and he ought not to Ba elected.

Them Is more or less mention in the press just now, regardraff the action of the Methodist ChuwhBouth on the temperance question That organization refuses to rule out members because they may desire to take a drink of the ardent occasionally or even oftener. The only thing really to be said about the Methodist Church South, is that It ought to drop the word froaiits title, and confine itself toreligion pure ana simple, regardless of sectional social questions. It is not so much a question of whether a man goes to heaven without a brick In his hat, -it is. that he should go then si tSL Josh Billings stated ths ease once in a very few words that ths best judges of color cannot I distinguish the differenee between the souls of black or in the kingdom of heaven.

(iuavETT. In some respects it is a matter of re gret that the city is not divided into Wards or Council Districts wi.ii. there is a tacit acknowledgement among tne people that certain sections are en titled to representation in the Council, still there ia nothing to prevent the election of all the councilnien frnm ih heart of ifce city; besides, under the present manner of voting the people of any section may be deprived of the Conn. oilman of their choice by the voters of oiner sections. Jfor instance, Mr.

J. W. Pearson is undoubtedly the first of a very large majority of the citizens oi west Oakland for their councilman. and if the city were districted he would De certain of election, but under th isting method Mr. Pearson's chances are jeopardized by the voters of the re mainder of the city.

The same may be saia in tne case of Mr. Howard of Brook lyn and here is where the injustice is. li able to come in. Voters of Central and East Oakland ought to pay some heed to the wishes of the citizens of the Went end and vice versa. No ONE man in this citv.

exnentincr Dr Merritt. has displayed aa ninrh enter prise fa advancing their private interests to me oenent 01 the city as J. W. Pearson. To his energy alone is due a lare snare oi tne recent prosperity of West Oakland.

The howling wilderness of tow pastures in that section have, by his energy, been transforms ll infn 1 ilnn ril ing gardens and elegant homesteads. Tt is not at all strange thai, in view of the abiding interest which Mr. Pearson has manifested in the affairs of his immedi ate neighborhood, his fellow snouia desire to have him represent their interests in the Council. He isinut the kind of man for the position, and while he will keep special wnfcph ni ward over the interests of the Point, will at tne same time work for the welfare of the whole city. He is nerteotW familiar with the wants of every section oi me city and will not attempt to ad yancs one portion of the city to the in jury of another.
