WEEKLY GAZETTE SATURDAY...JUNE 14, 1884 SUBSCRIPTION, per year, $2. The Republicans made a tremendously bad nomination—for the Democrat. VENNOR, the weather prophet, is dead. There are enough of 'em left to run the climate of the country. A portrait of Uncle Sammy at the Stockton Convention was the cause of boundless enthusiasm. Brother Lynch says the Democracy lacks bread and butter enthusiasm. What's in a name. It is charged, and denied, that the large importations of glucose into this State is for the use of fruit canners. The canners do not conceal the fact that they use glucose in maple syrup and in mixing with honey, and claim that both these articles are improved by the adulteration. Eastern syrups imported into California contain over one-half glucose. Here's richness: The cash balances in the United States Sub Treasury in San Francisco on June 1st were: - Gold coin ... $48,002,000 - Standard and Silver Dollars ... 17,828,000 - Fractional Silver coin ... 7,789,417 - Nickels ... 18,000 - Paper money ... 9,090,000 Total ... $82,727,417 The following is a concise summary of the total vote cast for each candidate on each ballot in the Republican National Convention. BALLOT: First ... 3341 Second ... 349 Third ... 375 Fourth ... 544 WHITHER NOW WILL THE DE-MOCRACY DRIFT? Without principle, policy or leader, the Democratic party has been drifting on the political sea, at the mercy of the wind and wave, hither and thither as the shouts of the unwashed have directed it. The last and strongest above sent it bounding with an irresistible boom toward the decrepit old man and the senseless name of the "Old Ticket" until it had become the practice of all gatherings of Democrats, from the ward primary to State Conventions, to declare with wild enthusiasm for "Tilden and Reform." Of the Uncle Sammy boom nothing remains but hoarse throats and burned powder. The Democratic ship is again at sea. Samuel J. Tilden has placed in official form his refusal of the Democratic nomination for the Presidency by the publication of a letter addressed to the Chairman of the New York State Democratic Committee. His age, lack of physical strength, and no hope of being able to accomplish his ideal of reform, constrains him to say definitely that he cannot assume the labors of a political canvass nor the duties of the Presidential administration. The letter as a whole is a recapitulation of the Tilden side of the Tilden-Hayes controversy—eight years ago settled, and now, with the retirement of Mr. Tilden, a buried issue. To one disposed to doubt the sincerity of Tilden's refusal, the letter must appear to be a master stroke of political diplomacy, serving to fire the "Old Ticket" enthusiasm to the highest degree. The sentiment contained in the closing sentence of the letter is expressed in the reverential and manly words: "I but submit to the will of God in deeming my public career forever closed." And it will do more honor to the future reputation of Samuel J. Tilden than were he able to write after his name, President of the United States. Undeserved Censure. A case has just come to light at Anaheim that tends to bring considerable discredit upon the authorities of that little burg. It appears that a man by the name of Charles Hanks was arrested there a few days ago on two charges—one of vagrancy and one for disturbing the peace. Hanks is a poor cripple. Licences to carry ammunition each in New York city. The Mississippi Chief saloon keepers out of town. An attempt to pass the Quebec Legislature. The Russian Government $60,000,000 to build new houses. A large number of officers are going a begging for work. During a trial in Aevidence was received graph from a witness. The oldest apothecary celebrates in 1888 its fiftieth anniversary. The shop was sold for 200 marks. The long continue drought throughout Pennsylvania sampled, no such drama known for over fifteen years. A bill granting $5,000 Gen. Francis P. Blair pension to $50 per month House. For sixteen years this murdered a little girl has been strewed with her anniversary of his death. For abusing a judge's tenure of twenty months of Bowling Green, Objection prisonment promptly ended. A Boston girl was last under a canopy on her bridesmaids' tere cups. The effect was severe. A birth was later ill., in which the physician of the child was taken to the mother, the former latter 19 years of age. Seventy-seven members Commons have signed stone in favor of female banners of the Cabinet and the principle. An attempt is to be made in coming expositions into circulation thereafter made half a dozen times tempted has been a failure. A dispatch from A papers says it is expected port of wheat from this year will be 11,000,000 tons fall throughout the country. The excess of England great that Lord Shaftesbury etched that greatest conferred on England's condition of from two to three generations of Gen. Booth of the Loyal Legion has an order that MR. THOMAS B. CONNERY, for many years managing editor of the Herald, has become editor-in-chief of Truth, and Truth is to be congratulated thereon. Those who know Mr. Connery's ability, enterprise and personal character will agree with us that his re-entrance into editorial work is a good thing for American journalism.—Harper's Weekly. And so the Republicans have nominated Jumping-Jim-Mulligan-Blaine and Big Injun Black Jack.—Truth. Mr. Connery's caustic wit is only equalled by the vigor and elegance of his language. And so Connery is Harper's ideal of an American journalist! An Eastern paper, in a general review of matters and things, takes a gloomy view of the outlook. It says: "It is not to be ignored that the business interests of the country are in a precarious condition. There is no 'money' in manufactures nor in trade. The Cincinnati rolling mills shut down on Saturday, throwing three thousand men out of employment. Merchants are reducing when and where they can their regular expenses, which means less wages for some, idleness for others. Even the soundest railroad securities are under a cloud, and the general tension is extreme and uncertain as to its duration." At a recent exhibition of blooded and trained horses in New York city, which was remarkable as being the largest and finest gathering of stock ever collected in this country, and which excited the interest of all classes of people, there was a time trial of engine horses used by the New York fire department. The prize was awarded to Engine Company 22, whose horses sprung from their stalls at the sound of the electric alarm gong to their place at the engine, were harnessed, and off with the apparatus at gallop pace in the almost incredible time of two seconds from the first stroke of the alarm. This wonderful achievement leads us to observe that there is room for improvement in the system and discipline of our fire ladies in Los Angeles. The oranges and lemons' of the Mediterranean can be laid down at Baltimore, Maryland, for one-half what it costs to deliver the California fruit in the same market. The Journal of Commerce of Baltimore makes that statement and adds: "It is due to this mit to the will of God in deeming my public career forever closed." And it will do more honor to the future reputation of Samuel J. Tilden than were able to write after his name, President of the United States. Undeserved Censure. A case has just come to light at Anaheim that tends to bring considerable discredit upon the authorities of that little burg. It appears that a man by the name of Charles Hanks was arrested there a few days ago on two charges—one of vagrancy and one for disturbing the peace. Hanks is a poor cripple, both arms being at the elbow and one of his feet terribly dislocated. He has been in the habit of soliciting alma. A few days ago he called upon some resident, who not only refused him, but had him arrested and placed in limbo. Upon examination it was discovered that the man had $22. The Judge fined him that amount. The generous resident not satisfied with knowing that Hanks was then penniless, swore out another warrant, charging the man with having disturbed the peace by coming upon his premises begging. Hanks was again tried and sentenced to jail for seventy-five days. Fortunately Dr. Hannon, county physician, happened to ascertain the facts of the case, and upon his reporting the same, steps were immediately taken to get Hanks out on a writ of habeas corpus. H.M. Colton took the matter in hand and to-day the poor cripple is once more free. Dr. Hannon will send the man to San Francisco, where he has friends who will look after him in the future.—L. E. Evening Republican. The above by an over zealous news gatherer is a gross misstatement of facts. Some three months ago much annoyance was given the residents of Anaheim by the persistent begging for money and wine of a tramp able bodied in every particular with the exception of one game foot upon which he slightly limped. During the two or three weeks of his operations about town, a number of petty larcenies occurred. An outside window of the bedroom of John Hanna was opened, a pair of pants was taken and the pockets riffled of small change, amounting to four dollars and a half. In an attempt to reach a pocket-book and watch lying on a table, the burglar awakened Mrs. Hanna who gave an alarm and the thief escaped. Examination of the footprints under the window revealed the fact that one foot of the house breaker was dislocated. The tramp was arrested on the charge of vagrancy but escaped from the officer. The same night of his escape between nine and ten o'clock he was caught in the act of attempting to enter the house of F.J.J.Schmidt, was rearrested, plead guilty and was sentenced to jail. In court he gave his name as Charles Hanks, and testified that he was a farm laborer. The court record describes him as a strong and healthy man. His arms were not gone at the elbow nor was his feet so terribly dislocated as to prevent him from indulging in lively travel. He is reported to have tramped from San Diego and is, no doubt, happy in being helped by an "act of kindness" to a larger field for his avocation at San Francisco. This is the time of year when political An attempt is to be in the coming exposition into circulation there; made half a dozen times tempt has been a failure.

The Journal of Commerce of Baltimore makes that statement and adds: "It is due to this excessive freight charge that California cannot find a market for its perishable products this side of the Mississippi. Wholesale dealers here are of the opinion that the prices of land carriage can be reduced from one-half to two-thirds, to the advantage of producers, carriers, middlemen and consumers equally. There is no doubt that the consumption, and consequently the culture of tropical fruits would be very materially increased by a large reduction of the cost." In another editorial, the same journal under the caption of "Raisins in Baltimore" says: "About 2,500,000 pounds of raisins are handled in Baltimore every year by importers and wholesale dealers. One half this quantity is imported direct, and the rest through New York. All these raisins come from Spain, and nearly all from Malaga and Valencia. There is little demand in this market for inferior raisins, which generally come in barrels and mats. The crop begins to come in during the latter part of August and the receipts continue until late in the fall. The raisins of Malaga are the best in the world, and the ocean freights are so low that they have no competitors, although good raisins are made in California, and the time of the passage is not more than one-third of that from Spain. The voyage from Valencia to Baltimore is about three weeks. It is not likely that the raisins of California will supercede those of Spain in this market until sufficient encouragement has been given by urgent demand to raise the quality and the competition of new railroads, or the opening of the Panama route has reduced the cost of transportation below that of Atlantic steamship freights." This is the time of year when political prophecy is rampant. We know as much about the political probabilities as we do of California weather, but it is the privilege of everybody to prophecy on both these matters. Therefore we venture to forecast the November vote in this way: REPUBLICAN. DEMOCRATIC.

Field, and pleading the delegates to Chicago to vote against him. THE CHINESE QUESTION. ED. GAZETTE:—In view of the fact that certain parties are circulating a report that they offered to furnish Chinese labor at a reduction on the price paid, I deem it advisable to state the facts of the case. Immediately after being authorized by the Board of Directors to employ the necessary laborers to complete the Company's ditches by July last, I visited the Chinese employment agency and told them to give me their lowest figures for laborers by Wednesday, May 28, and that I wanted the men on the site of the work by Monday, June 2d. I was then interviewed by one of those other parties above referred to and was told they could furnish labor cheaper than anyone else, and he was given until Wednesday to come forward with his lowest figure. On Tuesday, May 27th, I had an interview with these parties and found that the Chinese agency would furnish men for $1.15 per day, and that they would require one cook and one water carrier for every 40 men, to be paid at the same rate. The other party offered to furnish Chinese laborers for $1.12$, but required one cook and one water carrier for every 30 men, thereby making cost about the same if 80 or 90 men were employed; and if I concluded to increase the force it would give a balance in favor of the $1.15 men. Therefore, taking into consideration the fact that it is better to deal directly with principal than with an agent, the men at $1.15 were employed immediately. It was impossible to delay longer, as most of the men had to come from Los Angeles, and this only gave them one day to prepare. My presence being required on the ditch I was not in town again until Saturday, May 31st. I then had an interview with this party acting as agent and was informed that he could furnish men for $1.10. I told him they were employed, but told him also the Company would need as many more men. Whereupon he informed me that the company he represented would decline to work for the same parties with another company, and under such circumstances it would be impossible to secure them for a less price. Considering further negotiations in this quarter fruitless I employed the remainder of the men of the same party I was dealing with. Circumstances alter cases, i.e., could not spend the summer beating down the price of labor when I had orders to complete the work by July 1st. H. C. KELLOGO.

PATENTED JUNE 13, 1892. This invention supplies a long felt want for a cheap portable bed, that can be put away in a small space when not in use, and yet make a roomy, comfortable bed when wanted. Of the many cots that are in the market there is not one, cheap or expensive, on which a comfortable night's rest can be had. They are all narrow, short, without spring, and in fact no bed as all. While The Bedette folds into as small space, and is as light as anything can be made for durability. When set up it furnishes a bed wide and long enough for the largest man, and is as comfortable to lie upon as the most expensive bed. It is so constructed that the patent sides, regulated by the patent adjustable tension corda, form the most perfect spring bed. The canvas covering is not tacked to the frame, as on all cots, but is made adjustable, so that it can be taken off and put on again by any one in a few minutes, or easily tightened, should it become loose, at any time, from stretching. It is a perfect spring bed, soft and easy, without springs or mattress. For warm weather it is a complete bed, without the addition of anything; for cold weather it is only necessary to add sufficient clothing. The "Bedette" is a Household Necessity, and no family after once using would be without it. It is simple in its construction and not liable to get out of repair. It makes a pretty lounge, a perfect bed, and the price is within the reach of all.
