WEEKLY GAZETTE. SATURDAY...DEC. 22, 1883 SUBSCRIPTION, per year, $2. GENERAL BUTLER says the "old ticket" will be the wisest for the Democrats, and that Arthur is the strongest man the Republicans can nominate. Ben's political judgment is faulty sometimes. There will be no State tax in North Carolina next year. The Western North Carolina Railroad Company will pay into the treasury $600,000, which sum will defray the expenses of the State Government. MICHIGAN, by a provision of her Constitution, forbids not only the employment of a chaplain in either House of the Legislature but also prohibits praying or any form of religious service in either House. The man who drew up that Constitution evidently looked upon legislators as past prayers for "EQUALITY before the law." Loysdon Weaver and John Brown were recently taken to State prison together in Kentucky. Weaver had killed a man, and his sentence was for two years. Brown's sentence was for three years: he had broken into a railroad car and stolen a water melon. The resignation of Villard from the Presidency of the Oregon Transcontinental gives color to the belief that he overrated his own capacity and undertook too big a contract. He got beyond his depth when he aspired to be a railway king. Villard was a very good newspaper reporter, but there are very few of us who are able to successfully manage railroads. HERO-WORKSHIP is ephemeral. A few years ago the great tenor, Mario, was on idol in all the great cities of Europe, and wherever he went an ovation was accorded him. But Futile Legislation Proposed. Los Angeles Express An important resolution of the Board of State Vitucultural Commissioners, at its semi-annual meeting on Monday last, was that appointing a committee to devise legislation with a view to stop fraud at bottling of the wines of California under Eastern labels. It will require a strong and persistent effort on the part of the Board to aid in bringing this consummation to pass; yet the effort will be made conscientiously, and audited in the manner which will be mentioned, will end in success; let us trust. At the rate of planting during the past few seasons, by the end of the century there will be in Los Angeles county alone many millions of wines in bearing. The wine made here is of good quality and equal to the wine of any other country possessing like age. The demand for our wines exceeds the supply, and it was a significant feature of the Vitucultural Convention held a few months ago in this city that very few wines of more than two years of age were exhibited. This lack of former vintages is because there is such a demand from our Eastern States and from Europe that shoppers must send away wines which would be greatly improved by a little more age. It is so notorious that our wines are sold again in falsely labelled bottles at a very much enhanced price that it is not necessary to elaborate this point. It will be a very difficult matter to induce the legislatures of other States, to say nothing of those of foreign countries, to make statutory provisions on the subject. In all of those States, as well as abroad, there are laws of like nature which are broken or evaded constantly and with impunity. How, then, can it be expected that, even if favorable legislation be had, the law will really remedy the evil? It is proper and necessary to make the effort; but this effort will be aided very materially by constantly increasing experience in the matters of soil, climate and exposure, and concerning the varieties of grape which should be planted in this or that locality, as well as by the increase of capital enabling vinters to hold their wines longer before putting them upon the market. In this way the evil so justly complained of will be remedied. It was long before the famous wines of Jerez, Oporto and Fonseca were able to assert themselves and their fame has been the growth of centuries. In all things the world moves more quickly than it did ten years or three hundred years ago, and our wines will be known and appreciated in a much shorter space of time than was necessary in regard to the wines we have mentioned.

A few years ago the great tenor, Mario, was on idol in all the great cities of Europe, and wherever he went an ovation was accorded him. But when his voice failed him and he returned to Rome he was quickly forgotten, and when he died the other day, the fact excited little comment. At his funeral, less than 100 people were in the church. "We are so sorry forgotten when we are gone." The Morgan hoax did good service at a time when anti-Masonry was a political issue, and every once in a while some idiot goes to make a point by keeping alive the story. In New York recently a Rev. Mr. Stoddard in delivering a lecture against Masonry exhibited a huge stone with an iron staple, which he claimed was the weight used in sinking the corpse of William Morgan in the Niagara river. The New York Commercial Bulletin, reviewing the bulk introduced by Representative Converse, to replace the old duty on wool, advises the Ohio wool growers to learn a lesson from California, which now supplies the knit goods manufacturers of Cohoes, New York, shipping its wool so clean that it has displaced the Australian product in their mills. Cohoes is now the great competitor of Nottingham, England. TABOR, the Senator of a day, is one of those pushing fools whom it is difficult to suppress and who fatten upon the notoriety which their ruthless self-assumption brings them. His latest treak was to cause a circular to be placed upon the desk of each member of Congress advocating his nomination as an independent Democratic candidate for the Presidency. And, come to think of it, he has one important qualification: He has a bar'. A movement is under way in Boston to enforce the laws existing to the effect that no person under 14, nor any woman, shall be employed in stores more than sixty hours a week. Even the most pronounced opponent of woman's rights can scarcely object to the proposed legislation, more especially in view of the unanimity with which they claim for an eight-hour law. Eight hours a day for a man and ten hours for a woman. There's justice for you. The days of fabulous rates of interest in California seem to be past. The savings banks in San Francisco are lending money on mortgages at six per cent, and paying the idenycy of the Oregon Transcontinental gives color to the belief that he overrated his own capacity and undertook too big a contract. He got beyond his depth when he aspired to be a railway king. Villard was a very good newspaper reporter, but there are very few of us who are able to successfully manage railroads. Board of Supervisors. MUNDIY, Dec. 17. In the matter of San Fernando school district bonds the District Attorney having reported the same as legal, the Clerk was instructed to advertise for bids for the purchase of said bonds, to be opened January 7, 1884, at 19 A.M. Resignation of F. M. Wright as Road Overseer of San Fernando district accepted and E. Hammond appointed to fill the vacancy. Petition to declare the road from Wilmington to the residence of Mrs. Sepulveda a county road. Action deferred until the proper proof is presented to the Board. The County Auditor is instructed to draw a warrant in favor of B. F. Townsend for $5.47 on the school building fund of Garden Grove district, after the taxes shall have been apportioned. The Clerk was instructed to advertise for plans and specifications for the construction of a Court House, with jail underneath, on the premises known as the new Court House lot; corner of Temple and New High street; said building to occupy a space not exceeding 165 feet square and to cost not exceeding the sum of $250,000; the said plans and specifications to be filled with the Clerk of the Board on or before the first Monday of February, 1884, at 10 A.M. The Board reserves the right to reject any or all plans and specifications presented. The successful competitor for said plans and specifications will be paid $1,000. Adjourned until Monday, January 7, 1884. State Tolls. Every*San Francisco merchant accustomed to receiving goods from the East, or from points in the interior, must have noticed in the freight bills an item for State toll. This charge is at the rate of 10s per ton, or package. Probably some merchants pay this tax without knowing what it is for, or what is done with the money. The item is on the bills and forms a part of the freight charges, though it is distinct, and is not a part of the railroad revenue, though the railroad people have to collect it for the State. A merchant told us that he had a small invoice of goods from the East, considerably less than a ton, but it got broke up on the way, and arrived in half a dozen detachments. Had it arrived as an entirety, as shipped, the State toll would have been just 10c, but coming to the store in installments, and separately billed, the State toll was 60c or 70c. There is another feature about this subject that is of interest. Most of them speak doc woman, who is the trader, cultivated five acres of assistance whatever, and The days of fabulous rates of interest in California seem to be past. The savings banks in San Francisco are lending money on mortgages at six per cent, and paying the mortgage tax, and yet they cannot bind a market for more than a third of their money.—N. Y. Sun. The above is quite true; and much of the prosperity of the State is due to the prevailing low rates of interest. As long as one-and-a-half per cent was the rule there was no inducement to embark in enterprises, for few ventures promised profit enough to justify the borrowing of money at such a rate. Correspondents of the New York Times have interviewed New Hampshire politicians and the result is thus epitomized: Arthur seems the popular choice. Blaine has evidently lost his hold upon the hearts of the Granite State Republicans, which is a fact of ominous moment for him, since New Hampshire and Maine are continuous States and not unlike in their Republicanism. But Blaine's strength in New Hampshire was always less real than seeming, for it had no popular basis. He owed to artful Chandler the possession of the New Hampshire delegation in 1880, and now that Chandler serves another master, Blaine finds few members of the party in that State who would be willing to call him from his literary enjoyments to mingle again in the hurly burly of politics. A Victoria, British Columbia, dispatch says: In the legislature to-day the President of the Council unexpectedly introduced a bill granting women the right of suffrage. The Colonist warmly supports the proposition and calls on the legislature to be the first under British rule to extend to women the right which should never have been denied them. Discussion on the bill is postponed until after the holidays. The last of the terrible Beds fame dwell on a trawl near the village of Seneca line between the Indian Towns. There are two bering 106 persons. They war-like character, and are culturists, and in doing this assisted by the General Good supplies rations and an introduction.

HONGKONG, December 24th The sanguine editor of the Herald gives us these crumbs of comfort. "As Los Angeles county has passed for so many years as a region of scant rainfall, it is just as well that we should point to such exceptional features as are beginning to characterize our local weather situation. Up to the current date the rainfall here has been twice that recorded in San Francisco and in the central counties. Our valleys are now as green as an emerald; while, even only so far north as Ventura the parched soil has asked greedily for rain. The fact is that, for the past two years, and thus far in the present season, we have been treated to rains distinctively our own. In the year 1881-82 we had a series of rains late in the Spring, and which made us good crops, which were almost entirely restricted to Los Angeles county. This was largely the case last year. Verily, the extensive cultivation of the soil, the very general planting of trees hereabouts, and perhaps other circumstances of a more occult nature, are giving to this country, of late, a weather system independent of that of the rest of the State. Every five years Georgian men who lost limbs in the Governor has just announced to receive applications for payment. There were, then, eleven says, between nine hundred one thousand applicants in four classes of applicants: legs amputated above their lowered $100; legs cut off below arms above the elbow, $60; elbow, $40. The aggregated number is about fifty thousand dollars is to enable the recipients to limbs. PACIFIC COAST NEWS. Mischievous boys placed assafetida in the drum of the stove at the Chico Theater one night last week. The noisome smell stopped the play, and the windows and doors had to be opened to give ventilation to the hall. A reward was offered for the culprits. As a compliment to Mrs. Dunniway for her untiring efforts in behalf of woman's enfranchisement, the leading politicians of Washington Territory, irrespective of politics, are petitioning President Arthur for her appointment as Governor of the Territory. At Congress, San Luis Obispo county, the other day, Mrs. Wesley Goldsmith visited the grave of her little daughter, who had died of diphtheria about three months ago, and wept over the spot for some time. While there she took strychnine and died in a few minutes. James Clutchel, a member of Toscarora (Nev.) Lodge of Old Fellows, who died recently, willed 100 horses to the lodge, with the understanding that it should pay the expenses of his sickness and burial. This the lodge did, and now it has a band of horses valued at several thousand dollars. At Austin, Nevada, Thomas Roberts, aged ten years, picked a giant powder cap with a pin, when it exploded, blowing his left hand to pieces and inflicting terrible wounds on his body. His hand was amputated twice. He died on Monday. There was an "old horse sale" at the City Hall in Oakland. Among the curios disposed of were a complete set of body snatcher's tools, including the "stiff" box, two long-handled shovels, a sounding iron, and a rope wherewith to haul out cadavers; also a second-hand collar, slightly soiled—a souvenir of the late grave robbery at Mountain View Cemetery. Denis Kearney and Stephen Maybell have formed a partnership for the purpose of supplying hot coffee, doughnuts and other eatables to the crowds who visit the ocean beach. Their place of business is a novel one and is situated on the beach within a few miles from New Bedford. NEWS OF THE WEEK. The Mansfield Mills at New Bedford, Mass., give notice that wages will be reduced about ten per cent. on the first of January. In the case of Elizabeth Larrabee vs. the Central Pacific railroad for damages for personal injuries, judgment for plaintiff for $4,500 has been entered by consent. At Durango, Colorado, the son of ex-Governor Hunt was killed by a negro burglar whom he caught attempting to rob the bank where Hunt was employed. Blaine's youngest son, James G. Jr., it is alleged, has fallen into bad company and is leading a wild life. He has been expelled from George Town College for drunkenness. James is only 17 years old and looks even younger. Pablo Quintana, Mayor of New Laredo, Mexico, was arrested on Monday by a detachment of the Fourth Mexican Cavalry on the charge of instigating the recent train robbery on the Mexican National Railway. The clergymen of the several churches in Joliet, Ill., held a meeting, and resolved against the issuing of Sunday papers, regarding it as an infringement of the Lord's day, and advised all Christian people to neither advertise nor read any paper issued on Sunday. Freeman, the Poecaset, Mass., fanatic who, a few years ago, sacrificed his little daughter, was finally tried for her murder Dec. 5th, and acquitted on the ground of insanity. He will be remanded to the Insane Asylum for life, but an effort will be made for his release on the ground that he is no longer dangerous. The workmen of the Edgar Thompson Steel Company at Pittsburgh, Pa., have accepted the reduction of 13 per cent. wages in preference to remaining hire until trade improves. The mills are running as usual today and steady employment is promised 2,000 men through the season. To steel men this reduction means a cut in wages of all the steel rail millys of the country.

Denis Kearney and Stephen Maybell have formed a partnership for the purpose of supplying hot coffee, doughnuts and other catables to the crowds who visit the ocean beach. Their place of business is a novel one and is situated on the beach within a few feet of the roaring breakers, not far from where the cars stop, and their fragrant hot mocha can be seated in the breezes by the blowing seals on the adjacent rocks. -S. F. Co. The Boise (Idaho) Stateman, of the 15th inst., has following special from Huntington, Oregon: On Tuesday afternoon a band of desperate role into Huntington and at the point of the postal forced J. Fyer, a merchant, to give up $15,000 in money and drafts. They next robbed a paymaster on the railroad construction here of a considerable amount, reported at $12,000. Several merchants and others were also robbed of amounts ranging from $200 to $500. From the best information there were seven men in the gang. Huntington is a new town recently laid near the mouth of Eurat River Djunction, on the Baker City branch of the O. R. & N. and Oregon Short line. There is no such thing as a constabulary in the country, and it is thought that the highwaymen will get away with their booty. Peter Jansen, a native of Denmark, aged about 35 years, employed as foreman in Hunson & Co.’s mill at Tacoma, W. T., met with a horrible death. Jansen went down on the lower floor of the mill to release a belt that turned the machinery of the sawmill carriee. He did not return, and when some one went to see what had become of him a horrible sight met the man’s gaze. The floor, walls and beams being covered with blood, and pieces of human flesh and belt were found entangled in an unsightly mass. Jansen had evidently been caught by the belt and literally torn limb from limb. His feet were torn from the legs and the legs from the body. One arm was gone and the flesh, bone and muscle had been torn away from the body, leaving the internal organs exposed to view. The last of the terrible Modocs of Lava Beds fame dwell on a tract of 4,000 acres near the village of Seneca, on the dividing line between the Indian Territory and Missouri. There are twenty families, numbering 106 persons. They are losing their war-like character, and are becoming agriculturists, and in doing this they are still assisted by the General Government, which supplies rations and an instructor in agriculture.

The mills are running as usual today and steady employment is promised 2,000 men through ‘the season’. To steel men, this reduction means a cut in wages of all the steel rail mills of the country. A Nashville, Tenn., special says: A few days ago S.A. Brannon and a man named Toold disappeared from M.R.Bailley’s farm near Clarksville with two horses, four mules and two vehicles. Detectives traced the property to Alabama and recovered it. Bryanon was arrested, but the parties who had recovered their stock and wagons declined to prosecute. Bryanon was one of the 200 stalwart delegates to the Chicago Convention. The New York Tribune states that Rev.Jacob B. Freshman, a converted Jew and son of an immigrant Ralfa, has formed the belief that the Jews culture Christianity because they are tenacious of their nationality, and fear absorption. It is his aim to create a Hebrew Christian church a gospel nation that shall be nationally Jewish but religiously Chrisman. Sunday services are held at the Cooper Institute. General Adams of Hastings, Mion’, gives another version of the Ellendale skeleton story. General Adams was in 1896, commander of the Department of Dalette, with his headquarters at Fort Abercrombie. He says the skeletons found must be those of twenty-three deceivers from Fort Gully, belonging to the First United States Army of ex-srebels, who stole horses from the Quartermaster general and started for the British possessions. A violent storm started up a day or two after their departure, in which all at the fort though they mount perch if exposed. They probably handled together for warmth and thus perish. Nothing has ever been heard of them since their desertion. The Christian Convention to form an anti-secret society league met in Philadelphia on Wednesday. A delegate prayed that the people might be delivered from a bondage greater than human slavery; he asked that the spirit of God might enlighten and open the eyes of Christians to the great danger attending secret societies. Officers were chosen and addresses made by Rev.J.P. Stoddard and President Blanchard, of Lincoln College, Illinois. Resolutions were adopted denouncing all secret societies, and declaring that the Masonic Lodge fills our offices—secular and divine—with its partisan, shapes our political destinies, teaches a corrupting morality, subversive both of the Christian religion and free institutions. A resolution also declared the Grand Army of the Republic an insidious, dangerous and unwelcome force. Kroeger’s Hall, Anaheim. Characteristic Midnight Waltz. Music at 8:15.

HONGKONG, December 28.—Great excitement prevailed in Canton yesterday on the arrival of the American Presbyterian missionaries, Mr. Henry and Mr. White, with a native Christian preacher from Shekloong, about sixty miles east of Canton. During a riot in that town the chapels were destroyed and many worshipers seriously injured. A native preacher was also severely hurt. A Roman Catholic priest arrived late last night under a military escort. The Canton nobilists are causing excitement by circulating rumors that large quantities of powder are concealed in the Roman Catholic cathedral and they threaten to blow the edifice up. It is a splendid building, of imposing height, and has ever been an eyesore to the Chinese. Quiet has only been maintained by the presence of gunboats and of military in the city. Every five years Georgia pays money to men who lost limbs in the late war, and the Governor has just announced his readiness to receive applications for the State's second payment. There were, the Augusta Chronicle says, between nine hundred and fifty and one thousand applicants in 1878. There are four classes of applicants—those who lost legs amputated above the knee, who are allowed $100; legs cut off below the knee, $75; arms above the elbow, $60; arms below the elbow, $40. The aggregate cost to the State is about fifty thousand dollars. The money is to enable the recipients to buy artificial limbs. $20,000 Gone. SAN FRANCISCO, CAL.—The Chronicle publishes in substance the following marvel: Capt. W. F. Swasey, the oldest pioneer of the coast, makes a statement of the intense suffering of his friend Col. D. J. Williamson, an army officer of distinction and an ex U.S. Consul, who was attacked in the winter of 1861-2 with violent rheumatism. So great was his agony in after years, he became a helpless cripple, and after trying numberless remedies, the baths of other countries and spending a fortune of $20,000, the disease seemed to assume a more virulent type. Finally, he was persuaded to try St. Jacob's Oil, the great conqueror of pain. It worked a miracle of cure. In a letter to the Chronicle he confirms Capt. Swasey's statement and adds: "I cheerfully give my unqualified attestation to the truthfulness of the statement, because I feel perfectly certain that a knowledge of my cure by St. Jacob's Oil, will prove the means of relieving hundreds of sufferers."
