THE PRESIDENTIAL CONTEST. From the San Francisco. Although the newspapers are all earnestly discussing the chances of the several gentlemen who are competing for the Republican presidential nomination, and the popular interest in the subject is rapidly growing into excitement, we are not able to see what difference to the country it will make which of them gets the gift. Who can tell what important principle or policy Mr. Blaine stands for that Mr. Edmunds or Mr. Arthur or Mr. Logan does not? What does any of them stand for? Nothing, so far as we can see, save the "perpetuity of the Republican party," which means its retention of the offices. They are all in favor of keeping the Democrata out; each is a champion of protection; all are friendly to the "business interests;" no corporation need fear that any of them, if made President, would do aught to curtail its privileges. In all essentials Blaine, Edmunds, Arthur and Logan are four political peas in a pool. If any one of them should be nominated and elected the government, so far as his conduct might affect it, would go on quietly in the channels in which it has flowed for years past. There would be no disturbance, no reform. Not much is being said of the aspirants for the Democratic nomination. The reasons for this comparative lack of popular interest are: first, that the convention is to be held a month later than the Republican gathering; second, that Mr. Tilden, the Democratic God Almighty, declines to vouchsafe to his worshipers a revelation as to his intention to run, or the contrary; and third, that a conviction is abroad that the Democrats have scarcely a fighting chance. AN OUT-OF-THE-WAY NOOK. GARBERVILLE, HUMBERTON CO., CAL. Ed. GAZETTE.—This pretty little burg is perhaps a thousand or two feet above sea level and dates as a postoffice station from the year 1872, or thereabout. It is situated on the south fork of the Eel river which unites with the main stream some twenty miles from here; thence to Eureka being sixty miles farther. The main river and its south branch rise near together about ten miles from here and near the source of Russian river, famed for its picturesque scenery and its magnificent redwoods. Although Eel river and the country through which it flows has not been opened to summer tourists by railroad communication with the centers of fashion, a trip here would simply repay those who love nature for herself alone. The banks only hills as compared with their towering neighbors, the Sierra, however) are adapted to grazing and agriculture, while on the "flats" along the river fruits are said to grow finely. This county, so sayeth the authorities on such things, is justly proud of its oats, of the civilized variety, in addition to a consciousness of the edibility of its potatoes. Those wonderfully beautiful, grand, towering monarchs of the forests, so peculiarly Californian, the redwoods, vie with their stately brothren, the fires, in making the rich alfvial flats and verdure-clad mountains a delight aesthetically as well as financially to the happy owners thereof. The exports? "Wool, grain, potatoes, poultry," sing the veriest tots in the place. During the summer season transports are made by wagon road for twenty-five miles to Shelter Cove, where vessels enter for passengers or freight; but in winter when the roads are muddy and the harbor not so smooth, IRRIGATION AND WATER STORAGE. Their Effects on Population. India is now, with perhaps a single exception, the most populous country upon the face of the globe. Before its conquest by England it was divided into numerous States; the Moguls, the Sikhs, the Rajputs, the Mahrattas, swaying different parts of the vast peninsula, and frequent wars kept down the population. The conquest has put an end to most of the native governments, reduced others to semi-dependence and abolished internecine war. The result is that the Hindoes have multiplied like rabbits, and as no other cheeks upon increase (save snakes and tigers) exist, population beats in the most direct manner against the bound set by subsistence, and famines ensue. During every famine aid has been extensively supplied to the sufferers, but the aid has come from the revenues of other districts none too well provided for, so that, though the immediate effect has been remedial, the ultimate effect upon the entire country has not been so. It was, in truth, as regards the whole of India, simply a transferance of money from one of its pockets to another. Of recent years the Indian Government has undertaken the construction of irrigation works which probably exceed in magnitude, in cost and in the area they fertilize anything of the kind before executed. The irrigation works of former native governments have been restored and improved, and enormous reservoirs and canals have been constructed to supply with water valleys the inhabitants of which perish of famine unless they raise two crops in a single year. As an irrigation system these works fulfill their Not much is being said of the aspirants for the Democratic nomination. The reasons for this comparative lack of popular interest are: first, that the convention is to be held a month later than the Republican gathering; second, that Mr. Tilden, the Democratic God Almighty, declines to vouchsafe to his worshipers a revelation as to his intention to run, or the contrary; and third, that a conviction is abroad that the Democrats have scarcely a fighting chance for the presidency this year. This conviction arises from the fact that the Democratic party has been exceedingly industrious within the past year or two in furnishing good reasons for keeping it out of power. It is not because the Republican party is admirable that the people keep it at the head of the government, but because the Democratic party is imbecile and despicable. Although the average voter is not a remarkably intelligent person, a plain idea or two of a general sort finds lodgment in his head and influences him when election day arrives. He perceives clearly enough, despite the thunders of the party organs, the fiery eloquence of the stumpers and the exhilarating thumping and braying of brass bands, that there is really nothing at stake in the conflict but the offices. The Republican party has them, and naturally wants to keep them; the Democratic party has them not, and naturally wants to get them. The average voter—or at least a majority of him—cannot see what is to be gained by turning the Republicans out and putting the Democrats in. The Republican party is thoroughly bad. It is merely an organization that carries on the business of governing as a money-making industry. It is hand-in-glove with the predatory rich, who under its protection make spoil of the public lands, and fleece the people by means of the tariff, the railroads, the national banks and other legal devices for taking the money from the pockets of those who have most need of it, and pulling it into the purses of those who have more than they ought to have already. Republicanism stands for the rule of the rich and the despoilment of the poor. It stands for the continuance of special privileges to the wealthy, and consequently for all the evils which necessarily flow from a plutocracy. Believing this of the Republican party, we sincerely hope that it will be successful in electing the next President. For wherein does the Democratic party differ from the Republican party? Is there the least assurance that if it were given power the country would get a different sort of government from that which the Republicans give us? Nobody but a partisan who has more enthusiasm that sense will assert that Democratic public men are more honest or patriotic than Republican public men. What distinctive principles has the Democratic party? Has it not done its best to convince the country that neither revenue reform nor the purification of the civil service need be looked for if it be permitted to step into the Republican shoes? The retirement of Pendleton and the refusal of the House of Representatives to touch the tariff are eloquent facts. Does the party show either inclination or capacity to grapple with the question of corporate aggression upon the liberties and property of the people? Does any one clerk enough to vote really believe that if the Democratic party should win the Presidential election and gain control of the Senate as well as the House of Representatives, that the money power would be less potent in shaping legislation? Not a Lost Cause. Rome (Ga.), May 16.—There is to be a military encampment of State troops here in July and arrangements have been made to make it a revival of the military spirit among the young men of the South. Among those whose presence was promised was Jefferson Davis, but the Morning Courier prints the statement that the ex Confederate cannot come. In his letter the authorities on such things, is justly proud of its oats, of the civilized variety, in addition to a consciousness of the edibility of its potatoes. Those wonderfully beautiful, grand, towering monarchs of the forests, so peculiarly Californian, the redwoods, vie with their stately brothren, the firs, in making the rich altavial data and verdure-clad mountains a delight asthetically as well as financially to the happy owners thereof. The exports "Wool, grain, potatoes, poultry," sing the veriest totals in the place. During the summer season transports are made by wagon road for twenty-five miles to Shelter Cove, where vessels enter for passengers or freight; but in winter when the roads are muddy and the harbor not so smooth, passengers must enter this country from Eureka via overland stage from Cloverdale. Either way is fraught with incident. Those who do not enjoy an ocean trip may indulge their love of adventure by running the gauntlet of stage robbers from Cloverdale up to but not into this county. (Mem. the stages come on, but there are said to be no desperados in this county although they do sometimes come quite near to the line. At present the population of Garberville consists mostly of whites. Before the days of postoffice, Indians were more numerous than the white people, but like other wild things they have vanished, or are nearly gone, before the "march of civilization." The few half breeds left are mostly women and are educated with the white children in the public schools, many of them being intelligent and quick to learn from books. One young man has read law by himself and is now able to argue very creditably and eloquently in local cases that arise. There were at first bad Indians, but the last of them, three in number, are said to have been "run off over the bluff," some two hundred feet high, into the river. A summary method of disposing of them, and in your correspondent's humble opinion, far better than allowing bad Indians to "scalp" good white men. Mr. Greenwood, one of the Donner relief party, resides near here but is now quite helpless from exposure and hardships endured while out during that winter aiding in the search for the surviving unfortunates. Game is abundant; the venison, especially being very fine. While grizzlies have left immediate vicinity of the village, still but few miles' journey will bring the hunter to haunts of the black and cinnamon bears. Salmon trout, eels and other fry that delight Waltonian admirers, abound in the river and its tributaries. A boat ride and a "catch" of three or four hundred fish being the summer-day's picnic of many a fair resident of the town. Education is alive and progressive in the county; thanks to a live "Board." This place follows well in the lead of the county officers; at present it is building a new school house on a very pretty site and intends that its school shall be second to none. Old friends are doubly welcome in strange places, although kind faces and warm hearts abound among the strangers; hence, friend Gazettet, bring the light of your countenance "over the hills to me."

increase What distinctive principles has the Democratic party? Has it not done its best to convince the country that neither revenue reform nor the purification of the civil service need be looked for if it be permitted to step into the Republican shoes? The retirement of Pendleton and the refusal of the House of Representatives to touch the tariff are eloquent facts. Does the party show either inclination or capacity to grapple with the question of corporate aggression upon the liberties and property of the people? Does any one chl enough to vote really believe that if the Democratic party should win the Presidential election and gain control of the Senate as well as the House of Representatives, that the money power would be less potent in shaping legislation? No doubt there would be a terrible showing up of Republican villainy. Every Federal Department would be a mine of dirt, and they would be worked until the last bucketful had been hoisted to the surface and spread out for the inspection of the people. Then the Democratic Administration would rest from its labors and proceed to reward itself by making an equally foul deposit of its own—to be mined in the future by a hostile Administration in its turn. The net result of the election of a Democratic President would be the replacing of the present Republican office-holders with Democrats. We doubt if the people are ready to make that change, which would produce nothing better than a disagreeable noise, and inflict suffering upon a large body of men who have forgotten, if they ever knew, how to earn their living in private avocations. The success of the Democrat would but delay the birth of the new party and the arrival of the new era in our politics for which earnest men everywhere, who have outlived their partisanship, are looking. The party that will turn the Republican party out will be as unlike it as a party can be—not its twin brother, as the Democratic party is. It will not become alarmed, as the Democratic party does, on being accused of differing from the Republican party on any great public question, but will strive to make these differences as many and wide as possible. There are too many old men in the lead. Our politics are reminiscent. Veterans who got their education in the school of the civil war still general both of the voting armies. Like all veterans, they are fonder of fighting their old battles over again than of seeking new fields of conflict. Death will in time do its patriotic work, and with new men we shall have new questions. While the old play and the old actors hold the boards it would be folly to alter the cast by giving the Democratic super the leading parts, which the Republican actors have played for so many consecutive years.

There is to be a military encampment of State troops here in July and arrangements have been made to make it a revival of the military spirit among the young men of the South. Among those whose presence was promised was Jefferson Davis, but the Morning Courier prints the statement that the ex Confederate chieftain cannot come. In his letter Davis says: "The inducements you offer to me are most attractive. To see the veterans of the war for State sovereignty and the sons of those who so nobly maintained the cause would be to me a pleasure of which it is with sincere regret I find myself deprived. Borne down by overwhelming numbers, Southern resistance to wrong and usurpation proved unavailing, but believing, as I did and do, that the cause was just, that we were but asserting the eternal truths on which our fatners founded American independence, and which, sooner or later, I hope and believe the American people will reassert, I cannot admit that wars was a lost cause. It may not be—I hope it never will be—necessary to vindicate that cause by force of arms, but when the passions of day subside and reason has replaced truth upon her throne, curs will again be recognized as a union of free, independent and sovereign States, held together by a common interest and a noble desire to transmit blessings to our posterity forever." In printing this letter, the Morning Courier says: "There is no crying or fawning about the grand old Confederate statesman. His utterances are always in keeping with the grandeur of his life. His motto has ever been 'Hew to the line, let the chips fall where they will,' and not a single act in his life will belie the principle he teaches. Long may the glorious old hero live, the pride of Southern chivalry." The comment on the letter by the people is that Davis always speaks at the wrong time; that as the Presidential elections draw near he has to revamp something about "State sovereignty" and similar exploded political saws, calculated to make the people think there may be danger in the old man yet. A Government Sheriff. Mr. Edward L. Green, Anckland, New Zealand, writes: "I received an injury to my shoulder in June, 1882, and from that date until July, 1883, I could not use my arm. I applied to medical men and used all sorts of liniment, without any benefit. I have great pleasure in stating I had occasion to use St. Jacobs Oil for it, and I had not used it ten minutes before I felt the beneficial effect, and now I can work with my saw or spade as well as ever I did, and recommend it to any one suffering pain. Much available land in Pennsylvania, New Jersey and New York. Much of the neglected land needs only a more equable distribution of its water supply. The towns also are short of water in a well watered country. Would it not be well, even in the Middle States, to store in reservoirs some of the waters that roll to the sea? These remarks apply still more forcibly to the basin of Ohio, now suffering from too much water. Further west across the Mississippi stretches a vast belt of arid country. Almost the whole of the United States lying west of a line commencing in Minnesota, running downthe eastern side of Dakota andthe centerof Nebraska,and passing through Kansasand Texas some forty miles from their western boundary, receives less than twenty inches of rain. The only exceptions to this are a small patch in New Mexico another in Arizona,and a larger one embracing Northern California andthe western part of Oregonand Washington Territory.A very large proportion ofthe soil is fertile,but there is no water. What can be done by irrigation is shown at Salt Lake,yet Major Powell,whose life has been largely spent in researchesin this arid region,sates thatthe water supply fromthe lakes and riversof Utah cannot be made to fertilize quite 3 per cent.ofthe area ofthat territory.Here is an opportunity forthe storageof storm waters.Nebraskaand Dakotaareshortofwateryet sufferannuallyfromthe flooding causedbytheforcibleexitofthelittlewaterthatfalls.Letusconstructreservoirsandplanttreesintheforest-denudeddistricts.

As an these works fulfill their POPULAR CRAZES. Drinking Galf's Blood - The Mud-Batha, Sand-Batha, and Blue-Glass Cures (Providence Telegram.) "'Popular craza,' did you ask about," was the answer of a well-known physician to the question propounded by a Telegram reporter. "'There are many kinds of peculiar craza, and some of the mothers people take to keep free from disease, or rather try to, are simply absurd. Take for instance, the man who goes the year round with a pair of sea-boons tied about his neck as a preventative to diseases of a contagious nature. Some wear beans, some corn, some horse-chestnuts, and others a plain piece of ribbon, all of which are mere cases of superstition. There are many who, when suffering from a cold, will wrap a wet sock which they have worn during the day, about their necks and retire for the night. Others wear a dry sock, and still others a piece of cloth saturated with lamp oil. In the country it is a standard remedy to wear a piece of salt pork about one's neck when suffering from a sore throat. This, by the way, is a good remedy. Some inhale the smoke from burning cherry wood, and others the smoke of oak chips in an open fireplace, as a cure for a cold in the head and nostrils. There are a great many persons who believe that when one gets a thorough drenching with rain or receives wet feet, that they should not hasten to their homes and put on dry clothes, but instead should let the wet clothing dry upon them, as by so doing they believe they will never take cold. The 'hot-water cure' which amounts to a great point in the East. Free Trade a Delusion and a Snare. Mr. William R. Dunnore, President of the great corporation of the Adams Express Company, was recently interviewed for his opinion upon the policy most for the good of the country. In reply to inquiries he said: "Of all heroes, in my judgment, free trade is the greatest. I learned that good sound doctrine in Massachusetts, where I was brought up. I favor the party which does most to protect and serve the interests of this great country, to protect its institutions, to foster the elements of its greatness. I always feel unhappy when Congress is in session. There is no knowing what professional tariff reformers will do, and in common with all business men, whose interests are closely allied and intertwined with the boat interests of the country itself. I heartily rejoice when Congress adjourns. Indeed, if Congress didn't meet hat once in three years it would be a great national benefit." "I know the great need of this country is a protective tariff and a sensible outworking of civil service rules. I take very little stock in party talk about the necessity of administration reform, because I believe that professional politicians on one side are just as deep in the mud as their opponents on the other side are deep in the mare. It is a great mistake to believe that any section of this country can be won by free trade talk. I know there is an idea that certain sections of the Northwest will be open to arguments of that kind, but in my judgment, they are grossly mistaken. As between the two platforms, free trade and protection, which ever party stands upon the latter is certain to have the moral support, and votes, too, of the solid, substantial businessmen; by provided for, so that, though affect has been remedial, the upon the entire country has it was, in truth, as regards India, simply a transference of its pockets to another.

The interests of humbermen in Maine, and the interests of sugar planters in Louisiana, and the interests of grain growers in the West, and the interests of miners in Pennsylvania are identical, and the sooner it is distinctly understood by commercial men the better." A Tragic Elopement. CHARLESTOWN (W. Va.), May 17.-The details of a melancholy accident, resulting in the loss of two lives, comes from Greenbriar, White Sulphur Springs. The affair has caused a profound sensation throughout the county. For several months past John Biggs, a young man of good family but of somewhat dissipated habits, has been courting a Miss Ellen Farrar, despite the strong opposition of the girl's father. On Thursday evening the young lady and her lover determined to slope, Biggs having unde arrangements with a minister on the opposite side of the river to marry them. The couple proceeded to the river and were on the point of embarking in a skiff, when the sound of approaching wheels was heard. Having anticipated pursuit, Biggs pushed off, but had only gone a few yards from the shore when a buggy dashed down to the water's edge and Miss Ellen's father and brother sprang out, satered another skiff and started across. By the moonlight Biggs recognized his pursuers and pulled hard to escape; but the two pairs of cars managed by the puruers were too much for him and in midstream he was overtaken. The father and son sprang into Biggs' beat, where a desperate struggle ensued between the former and Biggs, which resulted in the frail bark being capized. The brother swam ashore with his sister, but the father, and young Biggs sank, locked in each other's arms. The Pious Twelve. CANTON (Miss.). May 17.-At the conclusion of the Wheeler-Matthews' murder trial at Hazelhurst the jury, which acquitted Wheeler, addressed the following to the correspondent, which was delayed in reaching him until to-day: Please favor us to publish this statement. Being fully aware of the solomun duty resting upon us in this case and having now rendered our decision, we desire to make these statements: First—None of us are politicians; nor has politics had anything to do with our decision. Second—We knew it was impossible to give satisfaction in the case and we have not tried, but have rendered our verdict regardless of criticism from private individuals or the public press. Third—On retiring to the jury-room we united in a solemn prayer to God to lighten our minds and curse our hearts so as to and eccentric physician, lived in Sir Robert Walson so keen a delight in draw-particular process that, in patient with a fee for the sometimes be his own denon himself from a pure process was this: Roundawn, the doctor fastened piece of catgut, to the which a ballet was attached. been charged with this bulleasure of powder, the oper-ied effectually and speedily. rarely prevail on his friends their teeth in this singular manner.

New Orleans, May 17.—While a Mormon elder was waiting at the depot at Water Valley, Miss., on Saturday for several other elders, he was assulted by an unknown person, who emptied a bucket of tar upon his head. He made his escape. It is reported from Calhoun and other counties that the Mormons are making great headway among the lower classes and these elders were on the way to a great revival meeting. New Harveen celebrates July 4th as the continual of her becoming a city. The cure, pronouncing it nonsensical and positively injurious rather than helpful. This craze reached its limit in a few weeks to the grief of the butchers, who had reaped a golden harvest. "The mud found at a certain spa in Germany, a few years ago, was discovered suddenly to possess remarkable medical properties. It was an intensely black, pasty, thick, odoriferous mud, but thousands of persons hastened from all parts of Europe to bathe in it. To bathe in it was simply to be buried in it an hour or two, and then spend several hours in a tub of water to get rid of the reminiscence. The bath is described as being pleasant and its curative effects, in cases of rheumatism, gout, and other diseases, are well attested. The mud has been analyzed, and has been found to possess active properties, magnetic and chemical. The mud baths have had their day, and are now visited by only a few traveling invalids, whom the remedy does not frighten. Similar to the mud bath is the sand bath, of which Joaquin Miller relates a tragic story. A party of explorers were crossing the sandy deserts, carrying six of their comrades, ill of a peculiar disease. The sand bath was proposed to them. They all assented, and were buried in the sand, their heads alone being left above ground. In this position they were left chatting with each other, their comrades having retired for the night in a tent close by, and not the least sound was heard. In the morning they were horrified to find that wolves had visited the camp and eaten off each sick man's head level with the ground. "The blue-glass cure is too fresh in the public mind to need more than passing mention. Of the thousands and hundreds of thousands of early believers that the health-giving and strengthening principles of the sunlight might be increased by passing rays through blue glass, there are thousands yet remaining. "The sun-bath cure, the fish-oil cure for consumption, the severely simple diet cure for all kinds of saliments, the celery care for nervousness, and many others were the beginning, more or less, of a craze... The best principle of each is now included in every wise physician's array of medicines. There have been cures for corpulence that found armies of followers, as was attested in Byron's time, when every man who laid claim to be considered a man of fashion was thin and pale, in marked contrast to the well rounded comfortable-looking modern young man. Under the new apportionment the State was divided into six districts, as follows: First District—Siskiyou, Dal North, Humboldt; Trinity; Shasta, Modoc, Lassen, Plumas, Sierra, Tehama, Colusa, Mendocino, Sunoma, Lake and Napa.
