CITY AND COUNTY OFFICIAL PAPER.
ITKSDAY DEC. 8, 1874.
Tub Stockton Leader —Lac it a Dr.
Force Gordon's paper - which by
the way, Is the only real live paper in
Stockton, lias been enlarged and oth
erwise improved. We are pleased to
note this evidence of the Leader*t
prosperity and hope it will continue to
grow and prosper until its dimensions
exceed those of a blanket and its
finances enable Mrs. (louuoN to es
tabllsh a large bank.
The election yesterday passed off
quietly. There were one or two small
skirmishes with fists but they lasted
only a moment and were promptly
quelled. The saloons Were all closed,
aud only those familiar with the
back ways and byways could obtain a
drink for love or money. The excite
ment was inteuse and the streets were
crowded from the opening of the polls
in the morning until a vote could no
longer be made useful. The main
fight was on the Mayor and the next
important struggle was for Marshal.
Both sides worked steadily all day.
We do not think agreatdealof money
was used, and what was spent' Was in
vested prior to the day of election.
The law was generally observed and
the election as orderly as could be de
sired.
After the Battle.
The struggle is over and the people
are the victors. Probably a more ex
citing election has never transpired in
any city of California than that which
took place in Los Angeles yesterday.
The campaign has been bitter and
acrimonious. The whole struggle was
for the Mayor. Of the four candi
dates—Beau dry, Sacristk, Tiffany
and Sabichi —the lirst named was
the only one who might be regarded
as the friend of the people. Major Sa-
CRISTE though a worthy gentleman
and highly respected, did not enter
the campaign until too late to secure
the support of any but his personal
friends. Both Tiffany and Sapichi
were recognized as the candidates
of the exclusive franchise corporations
who have by their exactions become
both oppressive and obnoxious to the
citizens. Mr. Beaudry is a man of
the people and from the opening of
the campaign it was apparent to all
discerning men that he would be
elected unless unusual and unfair
means were used to defeat him. As
the battle grew warm the most dis
honorable and disgraceful as well as
totally unfounded charges were made
against him by both tlie Star and Ex
press; but as these libels and slanders
appeared they were promptly nailed
by the Herald, which is generally
read by the English speaking portion
of our population, and by the Groniva,
which is the able organ of the Spanish
speaking population. No man was
ever more falsely or maliciously slan
dered than Mr. Beaudry by the 77.r
--prcss, but the people have manifested
their contempt for that venal and dis
reputable sheet and their confidence
in and esteem for him by electing him
Mayor by a majority which may ex
ceed and certainly will not fall far be
low 400. The Herald has made a
strong fight for what it believed to be
for the best interest of the people. It
made this fight against the combina
tion of capital and tlie old schemers
who have controlled the city for the
last twenty years and it is proud of its
victory. The people of Los Angeles
will now manage their own municipal
affairs for a time at least. Vale the
ring !
Organizations, Unions and Rings.
Organization, and union, in the good
old days of patriotism, meant strength
and safety; but the latest edition of
dictionaries gives a definition which
reverses the old style. Organization
now means monopoly, and monopoly
means oppression, and oppression
means slavery, and slavery means the
degredation and ruin of all its subjects.
There are in existence organizations
of ancient mould which have passed
over the hills of thirty centuries, now
venerated for their antiquity and
loved for the wisdom they impart and
sustained by their own inherent
strength. Like the Egyptian pyra
mids, they stand as monuments of the
granduer and uobleness of ancient
races. The peculiar strength of an
cient organizations lay in their nega
tive qualities —non-interference with
your duty to God, to your neighbor or
yourself. With these negative quail*
ties an organization can be made
strong and useful; but it la a pecul
iarity of all modern organizations to
bind men and undermine their liber
ties. The trades union, art union, la
bor union —in fact, all the rings
and companies formed during the last
quarter of a century are formed upon
the principle of iClfishnesp; and we
here take the g' ound boldly that all
sellish organizations are a curse to
their members and a curse to the coun
try at large.
Shameful Outrage.
A gentleman recently arrived in
San Franeiico from Kern county, G.
W. Furness, relates the following
dreadful story:
About six months ago a man named
William Payton, from Illinois, with
his wife, a fine-looking woman, and a
boy, settled upon a Government tract
iv Kern county, about twenty-five
miles west of Sumner, the present ter
minus of the railroad running toward
the Panamint country, and about five
miles dfTthe line of the road. Last-
Friday morning, Payton, with his
boy, took his tfiantland went to a
place about live np lea distant t'toui hi*
residence, Idkving hit- wlt,> at home.
On his return in tho tveniag liis wife
was missing. The nearest neighbor
was nearly a mile from his residence,
butPayton sounded the alarm as soon
as possible, and search was immedi
ately commenced for the missing wife
and mother. On Sunday afternoon;
she was discovered in almost a dying 1 *
condition in a ravine about six miles
from her residence, and from her was
learned the horrible story of her suf
ferings. About an hour alter her
husband left home on Friday, live
Mcx iea ris or t 'alifornians rode up to t he
house and asked for a drink of water,
and as Mfs. Payton entered the house
to procure it two ofthe Mexicans dis
mounted. When she returned she
was suddenly seized and bound hand
aud foot, placed on the horse of one of
the parties. The whole party then
dashed off at tall speed making Cora
ravine in the foot hills some miles dis
tant. After about three hours ride,
tlia party arrived at a place which
gave incications of being an old
camp,and where there was .some extra
horses and a quantity of provisions.
Here the party dismounted and com
menced a hellish ogre, which eontiti:
ued until Sunday morning. The nar
rative of the sufferings of the heirless
woman, who had been dragged from
home to gratify the unnatural lust of
these demons, cannot be described,and
the wildest imagination cannot con
ceive of a more awful crime than was
there enacted. Not once, merely, but
repeateply did each one of these fiends
in human form subject their weak,
struggling victim to a nameless out
rage, and In addition "vhc waff beaten
with their fists and lashed with their
riding whips, until the blood flowed
down her body.
At an early hour on Sunday morn
ing the scoundrels broke camp, and
heading the poor woman down the ra
vine upon which they had been lo
cated, gave her several "cuts" with
switches, started her off'in one direc
tion, they riding ofTin another. Foi
several hours she wandered blindly,
staggering and stubling along, until
at last, almost famished for want of
food, and nearly dead from tho inju
ries she had received, she fell in a
faint at the point where her husband
discovered her in the afternoon. The
poor woman was taken to the nearest
residence and received all the care
and attention possible, but on Mon
day morning, when Furness last saw
her, it was very doudtful whether she
could survive the injuries she had re
ceived. The country in which this
unparalcllod outrage was perpetrated
is sparsly settled, but all of the availa
ble forces of the region were soon
afield in search ofthe perpetrators of
the'iirime. The roughness ol the re
gion and the small mass of the pursu
ing force are such, however, that but
little hopes are entertained of captur
ing them.

the erection of warehouses, have, ac
cording to the Vallejo Chronicle, se

This is what the Vallejo Chronicle
has to say about the late races: " Tlie
millenial era of honest horse-racing
does not appear to have yet dawned.
For days before the race there was a
casting of shadows before, a murmur
of events to come, 'as travelers hear
the billows roll before they reach the

letter."

gard to the San Francisco overdraft,

statement ot Riifiis Hatch.
New York, December sth. — Rufus
Hatch has published a statement rela
tive to the recent allegations of Mr.
Sage in regard to the cause of his (Mr.
Sage's) resigning the Presidency of the
Pacific Mail Steamship Company.
Mr. Hatch states that an investiga
tion has disclosed the fact that recent
reports-detrimental to tbe company
originated with the President, and
that it was inconsequence of this that
Sage was obliged to resign. His resig
nation hail, says Hatch, been asked
for by the Board previous to the invest i
j*ation, but he had refused to tender it.
The statement also denies all the alle
gations of Sage relative to (he condi
tion of the company. Hatch adds:
"In regard to all the statements that
have been made,from whatever source,
in regard to the business of the com
pany, 1 would say that the company
is iv a more prosperous condition than
for several years past." A full state
ment of the att'airs of the company is
being prepared and will be submitted
to the stockholders in a few days.

Salt Lark, December 4th.--The
District Court this morning overruled
the motion to strike out the answer of
the complaint in the cause of Lootnlfl
vs. V. P. K. It. The suit is for $25,000
damages for alleged injuries sustained
by plaintiff in being put off the cars
for playing three-card motile.
Arrangements are being perfected
to connect the Portland, Dalles and
Salt Lake Railroad with the Utah
Northern on Snake river, instead of
connecting with the Central Pacific.
This will insure a continuous line of
narrow gauge till the way from Port
land to Ogdcn and eventually lo the
southern portion of Utah.
The Grand Jury to-day presented
twelve Indictments and adjourned sine
die. The Court, ifl dismissing the ju
rors, complimented them upon their
efficiency, saving that If mercy and
leniency would liol teach the people
of Utah a lesson, the utmost severity
and rigor would be resorted to.
Several hoys to-day accidentally dis

The Identical still continues its
thriving trade. The reason for this Is
that all goods sold at the establish
