[_ "CRITERION" GAUNTLET! j V J l& The great CHAMPION PRICE LIST thrown right in the teeth of the COM- BINATION, and let those houses who have any prutentions to a live business, or any laurels to win, follow in our track. During the next Fourteen Days, every inducement compatible with a legitimate business will be offered by the CRITERION. It is an old trick of the Trade to follow a Live House (on paper), in the publishing of their prices, and it is the easiest thing in the world to write figures and mislead the public. What we ask of our patrons is to produce OUR PRICE LIST, and the goods advertised shall be forthcoming; and be it understood that if any house shall, after the printing of this document, pledge themselves by advertising to supply the same article, at the same or lower rate, that the said house or houses shall produce said goods as per adver* tisement, that judgment may be rendered by the public, whom we constitute the only legitimate arbiters.

THE ABOVE IS A BONA-FIDE PROGRAMME 1 tJT It iB almost unnecessary to say, that this List cannot possibly include a tithe of our stock ; but this we will say, that every Department of the House will sympathize. Our firm thinks that it really owes somewhat to the county — aye, and far over the boundary — for the downright hearty and substantial backing you have given to the stranger in your midst; and allow us to say, that during the coming months we will embody our thanks in a more practical form.

Posters are out all over the county, calling a Demo cratic mass convention, to be held at Merced on September 21st, to nominate a full ticket, to fill all the offices of the county, . and all who oppose ' the action : of the : Democratic County Central ■ Committee ' are invited to participate. This movement is made by a large number of leading Democrats of every precinct in this coanty, but it will not affect the Presidential or Congressional portion of the ticket. | ■ '■ ■ : .
