Loun: ty and :lvu“\, have marka cony Breckenridge camo out to this stato several years ago. Ho received a welcome from the southern colony, h is strong and socially influential in this city. The Groins, Tovises, Haggins, Thorntons, McAllisters, and other lights of tho “chivalry” socioty roccived him with opon arms, He was a fine-looking man of the southern type--tall, slender, oful, with the faco and carriage of his famous father, and, as the events have proved, with much of that fathe t of thought and tomperament. He had studied law, as 80 many well-born southern men do, not so much for the purpose of engaging actively in the prac- tico of the profession as a good propara- tion for the career of politics, which is just as much the ambition of young southern men now as it wes bofore the war. DBrockenridge, with the prestige of his name and with his shiny porsonal at- tractions, enjoyed a gay life here in fashionable society. He bocame engaged to ono of tho daughters of Lloyd Tevis, the brains and executive head of thegreat oxpress firm ot Wells, Fargo & Co Tovis, ome of whose nophews recently committed suicide in St. Louis is a millionaire who has made his money, unaided except by abilities of a ! gh order. Thereis no shrewder man m a bargain on this coast. In con- on with J.;B.

Ho was abundantly supplied with money, ho had the Kentuckian's passion for cards and horseflesh which Is capablo of getting away with an unlimited amount of coin. He went down on some of the paternal stock ranches in Fresno county and led the life of a wealthy southern planter in the olden time. Ho lived a freo life, became a great favorito with the wen among whom he mingled, plunged wmore and more _into disipation and debt, until finally his wife returned to her home, in this city, and a_suit for divo soon afterward begun in a quiet way. o grounc d were cruelty and in- 5 made, and, temperance. wer wa Mrs. Dreckenridge, still a_young and vory pretty obtained her legal husband romained about when ono of his ted for somo in B nrid and one d The ki im, roturel the 1 howed in o om mado his reputati 53 comunity.

So the son of a famous father became the popular idol of his country, and at tho last election was chosen assemblyman by u large vote. lle went in on the strictly anti-monopoly issue, which was the war cry of the democrats, With most of them it meant nothing more than a sop to the public to secure votes, and they joined hands with the railroad company to defeat any legislation aimed at the abolition of freight contracts, dis- crimination in passenger and freight rates, aud the evasion of state taxes. But with Breckinridge his extreme anti-mono- nopoly doctrines were evidently a mental legacy from his father. The man with whom the southern wing of the democra- cy tried to overthrow Douglas, and with whom they counted on crushing Lincoln, had more extreme views than any other politician of his time. His son scems to have inherited with the fortune of his father much of his peculiar mental twist, He did good service in the last state . islature and at the extra session in sh ing the unsoundness of the railread posi tic und the urgent necessity for some legislation which should curb’ the power of the big monopolies in this state. He spoke with o great feoling and conductod lthe fight with so great ability that he sined much reputation throughout th nd his nawo hs been irequently tioned for congress.
