WEENLY GAZETTE. SATURDAY... SEPT. 29, 1883 SUBSCRIPTION, per year, $2. The vagaries of fortune age well illustrated in the recent death of ex Lieutenant-Governor Chillis, who was elected in 1891 on the same ticket with ex-Governor Stanford. He was at that time a man of wealth and influence, but slippery fortune evaded him by degrees and he did a pauper and was buried by charity. FIGURES for the past eight months go to show that the present year's shipment of California front East will aggregate about twelve thousand tons an increase of over eight hundred per cent in three years. The greatest increase is from Los Angeles, which has, during the present year, shipped over four times as much as doing the corresponding period of last year. The Massachusetts Democratic Convention have renominated Ross Butler for Governor of the Commonwealth. Ben's political future is stalled upon the result of his contest with Robinson, his Republican opponent. It he wins, it is within the bounds of probability that he will be the most prominent candidate for the Democratic nomination for the Presidency. The decrees of fashion are solemn sublime, but often ridiculous. The descriptions which are from time to time prescribed for the attire of fashionable women and become popular in the ratio of their absurdity, hope we infer that the new fashion of wearing a belt made of tanned rabbitskin skin will be all the rage within a short time. The head and tail of the snake is left on the skin and the clasp is a silver buckle. This quite too new girdle is already largely affected in New York. WINE GROWING. PREFACE: On the basis of strong grounds taken by the Presbytery of Los Angeles at its late meeting on the side of prohibition, and the fact that the question of intemperance seemed to be the most prominent one before the Presbytery, and the reading of an address by a lady recommending that the truth as to the effect of wine-growing on the moral tone of communities be widely enunciated, the Gazette challenges the ministers, siders, deacons, and women living in or near Anaheim, who are familiar with the public and private life and character of the majority of its people, to print what effect wine-growing has had on the moral tone of Anaheim. In effect the Gazette says to those parties, prove the point so publicly robust, without any namby-pamily sentimental rot, or else forever after hold your peace. REPLY: The Presbytery of Los Angeles at its late meeting did not take any action whatever on the subject of temperance, and the question was not only not pronounced, but was not taken up at all. No sign address was read before it. The address noted was in the form of a letter, written by the Secretary of the Women's Christian Temperance Union to the Southern California branch of that body, whom happened to meet in Los Angeles just before the Presbytery adjourned, to which branch meeting in the same church, the Presbytery sent Roy W. W. Wells to convey its observations. What is simply good before one body cannot be taken as therefore done by another body freely to it. Otherwise your correspondent, who has always been a friend of the Gazette, might be charged with "writing the Gazette's challenge to the Presbytery," and trying to bring a good deal into contempt. I might rest my reply right here. An explanation and apology from the Gazette is in order. But even if the allegations were true, the form of the challenge would prevent a reply. Anaheim ministers will not find themselves at attempting to prove a charge of spear-murality against their own town. We caninger as sufficiently interested in Anaheim and its friends living there to share this feeling. No successful attempt to prove the charge could be made without personalities such as no self-respecting man should be called on to make, and whence it made by anyone, would justify bringing from the figure us indignation of the community. You will excuse us for beginning to put our fingers into such hot water. But I do not wish to seem to shirk this issue through the incorrect basis of the truth, not one of them but to a sober, steady and injureous boast be made if wrist trimental to the moral munity? Again, the recourse shows an almost crime, and the few cases perpetrated mostly by the floating population. The attested in these columns is the Peace of the township man. Again, the community may be gang-land Anaheim is the only California where such not permitted. The ex-the juggler may exhibit Sunday, and no law can fail if they attempt to perform A sham; they fall foul regulation to the control coiningly. Anaheim is men, women and children that is debasing or offense to the most sensitive intemperance does not littleness nor does moral atmosphere. It is able and social; it hasance; schools; both public fact everything is here being and intelligent concern the whirl of the wine prince in the land. In this face of the fact aim and object of the transactions on this coast is the wine industry; it sounds to call upon wine grown protest or come out open respondent designates. With the leaders in this it is not "an honest, open or not wine-growing favor they have assumed, with disregard of facts which all fanatics, that the witive of intemperance and be crushed. The invitee to assist them in the case generally accords. THE degrees of fashion are so well sublime but often ridiculous. The descriptions which are from time to time perceived for the attire of fashionable women and become popular in the ratio of their obscurity, hence we infer that the new fashion of wearing a belt made of tinned rubber make skin will be all the rage within a short time. The head and tail of the shaker is left on the skin and the clasp is a silver buckle. Time quite too fine girdle is already largely affected in New York. THE Imperial Government of Germany has issued an order to build the distribution of circular pumpsets descriptee of great resources of the United States, and give a luxurious offer by these Sailors for settlement. It is ordered that all such pumpsets shall be denoted the use of the mails, and shall be confiscated by the authorities when valued found. Under this order recently ten thousand pumpsets of the contraband character were confiscated and destroyed at Hamburg. WEALTH is a good enough thing in its way, but there are some essentials to perfect happiness where it is possible to maintain Leland Stapleton's skill in Europe with a spiral disease. Mrs. Stapleton gives about her magnificent Nob Hill mansion to a set of seni blindness, and Mr. Cockery is ported to be friendly all. It authorizes those nabsobs were asked to choose between a perfect health (which they have no need) or unimpaired wealth (which they should do all less be glad to make them change). THE National Wooden Association met in Chicago in Waltham and held a discussion on the treatment was held. A resolution was passed at the same time the Association decided to the tariff rates imported worms would at the earliest opportunity be restored to a spot they were before the late restoration, then the State martyrs and country assists them and what grows in all the States should see every day to secure the effects of interruption. Sapphire and Repeal advocates to that end, and that Congress be exhorted to make the restitution. If the Government of these United States persist in interfering in the domestic relations of the Indians, there will be a war which will be handled with slight by the grand army of contractors. Leland Stapleton Prince has ordered that whome an Indian has two ways he must disarm one of them. To issue such an order is one thing, but to enforce it is quite another thing, and as the Indians refuse to obey, it will probably occur to Prince that it is a delicate matter to mobilize with the custom of centuries. It would favor of the absurd were the army called upon to enforce the order. If the Government is to enforce morality, let its power be exercised upon the Mormons, whose practices and religion are corrupt and debasing, and not upon the Inca. But I do not wish to seem to shirk the issue even through the indirect basis of the issue would indicate that an accomplished writer does not read the papers. Perhaps some day the Presbytery may pass a resolution in accord with the letter read before the W.C.I.C. In that event it would probably be passed as the result of general consent among general principles and combined observations. In that event perhaps all men would be noted as one of the exceptions that metaphysicians say are needed to prove a rite. Let Anaheum show by its enterprise its thrift, its freedom from drinking solids and public bars, that its wine-growing does not interfere with its high character, that it is a good and safe place for men, women and children, and it will possess best of any general argument. The mass of readers of the Gazette are probably all of one mind that intemperance and all that fosters it, and all the evils sparing from it, is terrible cause to the people of large. It touches everybody somewhere. It increases our taxes; multiplies our law experience; tells our jails and adjudges; moves memoirs and bodies and souls. There are few things where it has not entered in some indirect way to bring sorrow and treble and death. It a woman's consent that wine-growing takes on temperament, the wine growers represented by the Power would do best to treat them with all their temperaments, or silent in nature. They mean what we know, that intemperance and all that fosters an evil to be avoided, both by moral reason and open question still in many minds whether or not wine-growing have any impugnage. The attitude of wine-grows will have a great effect upon others. It is a total concession for the wine-growing interest to be sensitive on the vast range of questions. It implies their own opinion on society they are involved in the combating conflict. The righteous should avoid such an aim. It they sake with the superior host, the saloon and the bar, they cannot being classed with them. Let them out on the right side. The constant real risk of the bulk of temperature talks does not hurt anybody. But the rat of retinence does not stop with talk, for it belongs like a serpent and bites like an anemone. I yield too deep, without further threat that the tracer will talk on it, believing that we are all friends here. ROBERT STRONG. And our reply will be brief indeed. We have no need to enter into a controversy on the general subject of temperance, and as our correspondent has declined to debate the specific text all laid to last week, there is no ground for argument. The error in our statement of facts is really no consequence. If the Presbytery as a body did not give endorsement to the views expressed by the W.C.I.C., it is easy of demonstration that the individual members thereof are hearty accord with such truth. In Loch, according a pet pig, ways one of infamous it works some milk, while playing off the weapons was not other only contained... It may not be true that Samuel J. Tilden stimulates his appetite for breakfast by sawing a couple of cords of wood, or prefaces his lunch by an hour's exercise on the flying trapeze, or seldom partakes of dinner without first turning a double flip-flap over six horses, but it appears that he has a penchant for sport, which seems to give color to the report of his rejuvenation. He leased a yacht some time ago, and now the telegraph informs us that he is to be proposed for membership in the American Yacht Club. It is probable that he has regained some of his physical strength; although about a year ago, and at the very time he was described as being in full physical vigor, he had to be carried about by two attendants, and "shook up" by them very much in the same manner as Father Smallweed in "Bleak House." This we have from a gentleman now residing in Anaheim whose brother is a neighbor of the sage of Gramercy Park. The ceremony of receiving Sitting Bull, the great Indian Chief, into the Catholic Church, which it was anticipated would take place this week at Fort Yates, has been indefinitely postponed, because Sitting Bull can't make up his mind which of his two wives he will let go. The forms of the Church forbid a communicant more than one. Bishop Morley has had him under his care for several months, and his instructions were being rapidly absorbed by the Chief, but the separation from his wives proved too much for him, and he will probably return to heathenism. A little child was wipped and hung up on a post by her parents in Salt Lake the other day. She died from the treatment. And our reply will be brief and neat. We have no desire to enter into a controversy on the general subject of temperance, and as our correspondent has declined to debate the specific text alluded to last week, there is no ground for argument. The error in our statement of facts is really of no consequence. If the Presbytery as a body did not give endorsement to the views expressed by the W.C.T.U., it is easy of demonstration that the individual members thereof are in hearty accord with such views. But if angiology is due the Presbytery for attributing to them acts which they did not perform, then we are nothing loth to admit our error and ask their pardon. There is not a member of the Temperance Union, the Presbytery or any other organization who is more fixed in his belief that intemperance is a great and growing evil, that it is productive of crime, panerism and all manner of vice, than is the editor of the Gazette. We know something of the woof it has entailed, of the homes it has made unhappy, of the crimes it has incited; and not even our friend Mr. Strong has deplored more earnestly than we the prevalence of the vile habit of intemperance. But as to the remedy it is evident that our views widely diverge. We think we do him wrong in assuming that his remedy is prohibition, the eradication of the wine press, the uprooting of the wine grape, the making, selling or drinking of wines an offense against the law and punishable as a violation of the statutes. We thoroughly and earnestly disagree with him in this particular. We know that in the countries of Europe where wine is abundant and cheap, intemperance is far less rampant than in the countries where it is not accessible to the multitude. We know that in France where figuratively speaking, everybody drinks wine, there is little drunkenness; whereas in staid, strait-laced Scotland where there is no wine, the amount of intemperance is simply horrifying. But our belief that wine-growing is not provocative of intemperance, but that it is rather an ally of true temperance, is based principally upon our observations at home. Since we have lived in Anaheim we have seen possibly a hundred young men grow from boyhood to manhood, and ANAHEIM, MONDAY, OCT. 8.

In Lodi, according to the Reriee, there is a pet pig, which has among its many cute ways, one of inhabiting its favorite cow that it wets some milk, and the cow very kindly accommodates it by lying down and letting the pig gorge itself. Frank Carroll, aged 12 years, and a resident of Oakland, was accidentally killed at the residence of Mr. Hale, near Paradise Mills, two and one half miles west of Modesto, while playing with two pistols. One of the weapons was fully loaded, while the other only contained one cartridge. C. M. Shortridge, proprietor of the Times of San Jose, was assaulted in his office and severely choked by Senator C. H. Maddux. The affair grew out of a sneering allusion to Maddux made by the Times in its report of the meeting of the Democratic County Committee, held Saturday. A new sort of beetle has appeared in the vineyards about Fresno. It is from half an inch to an inch and a half in length, with a hard shell, and is jet black. It works by night and lies by during the daytime. This beetle destroyed about ten acres for one man before he discovered what was the matter with the vines, supposing the destruction to be the work of rabbits. Mrs. O'Neil, who was so badly burned last Monday at San Francisco by a lighted coal oil lamp, thrown at her by her drunken husband, died in the hospital Wednesday. As soon as O'Neil was informed of the fact he secured possession of a knife and attempted to commit suicide, inflicting a wound below the heart, penetrating the lung. He is not expected to recover. Supreme Justice Field granted the petition of Jose Hurtado and Simon Raten, convicted of murder at Sacramento and sentenced to death, for a writ of probable error to the U.S. Supreme Court. The petition was on the ground that petitioners were tried under the form of information and not indictment by a grand jury. It was therefore contended that it was not in due process of law. Judgment was ordered suspended until a decision had been reached in the United States Supreme Court. A Santa Cruz telegram of the 25th says: Immense fires are raging in the forests and ranches above here, and have already done terrible damage.
