WEEKLY GAZETTE. SATURDAY...JULY 12, 1884 SUBSCRIPTION, per year, $2. CLEVELAND NOMINATED. The telegraph reports the nomination of Grover Cleveland of New York for the Presidency by the Chicago Democratic Convention on the second ballot. This was accomplished in spite of the bitter fight made against him by Tammany and Insures New York State to Blaine. A weaker nomination could not have been made, and the Democracy has added another to their long list of mistakes. Cleveland will be more bitterly antagonized by the Democratic press than Blaine is by a few Republican papers. He is notoriously a favorite of the corrupt and influential corporations of New York, and as a consequence the large labor element of that city is solidly against him. He is confessedly the weakest of all the aspirants, and while our private opinion is that no nominee of the Democracy could win, there is not the least shadow of a doubt that Cleveland will be snowed under as badly as was that other Democratic mistake, Greeley. The Democratic National Convention was permanently organized in Chicago on Wednesday with W. H. Vilas, of Wisconsin, as President and a list of Vice Presidents, one from each State. The convention occupied itself chiefly in a squabble over the unit rule, a question presented by the New York State delegation. A bitter fight was made by John Kelly in the interest of the opponents to Cleveland, resulting in the defeat of Tammany. The names of Thurman, Bayard, McDonald, Carlisle and Cleveland were presented to the convention for nomination. The details of Thursday's proceedings which were devoted mainly to the adoption of a platform have not been received. Another Acknowledgment. OFFICE OF THE COMMISSIONER OF IMMIGRATION. CHICAGO, Ill., June 26, 1884. Ed. Gazette.—Your note of the 13th inst., also the two packages of circulars, descriptive of Anaheim, sent as you say at the request of citizens there, are duly received. I will use them to the best advantage. Please convey my thanks to the citizens for this thoughtful contribution to my fund of information in regard to our wonderful State. It seems almost impossible, by descriptive articles, to convey to the people in this eastern country a correct idea of our State and its boundless resources and almost incredible possibilities. Take for instance the subject of climate, so strikingly illustrated in the table embraced in the circular, showing that for the last seven years, the average difference in temperature at Anaheim between the coldest weather of winter and the warmest weather of summer has been but about twenty degrees, and how can we expect people who live in a country where the changes of temperature are greater in a single day—in a few hours, in fact—than they are with us in years to obtain even a faint understanding or appreciation of the inconparable advantages of our climate, whether reference be had to the productions of the country, or to the comfort and health of its inhabitants, without some actual personal experience in both countries. Why, from the very earliest accounts we have of the existence of the human race down to the present time, the best thinkers and writers and speakers of the most glowing imaginative powers and descriptive talents in all ages have been endeavoring to bring mankind up to some fixed and uniform idea of the nature of the country beyond the river we are all approaching, and of which the "New Jerusalem" is the capital, and notwithstanding the belief in the existence of such a country and its superior attractions and enjoyments is almost universal, yet how many of the human family living in this enlightened age of the world have formed the same opinions of the real nature and characteristics of that country? It is true, that from that country, no one has ever returned to give an account of his personal observations and experiences there. In this respect California has an advantage. The descriptions of California that are mostly to be trusted come from eye witnesses—from personal observation and experience, and on this account are valuable for circulation here. The very best argument in favor of our country is a residence there through the seasons of the year. I state here, with emphasis, that I have never yet met in the Board office. The Assessor presided of 1884-5, consisting maps. Adjourned as a Board opened as a Board chiseat at San Pedro. Attorney to report it.

Vanderlip wurday, July 12, 1884. from each State. The convention occupied itself chiefly in a squabble over the unit rule, a question presented by the New York State delegation. A bitter fight was made by John Kelly in the interest of the opponents to Cleveland, resulting in the defeat of Tammy. The names of Thurman, Bayard, McDonald, Carlisle and Cleveland were presented to the convention for nomination. The details of Thursday's proceedings which were devoted mainly to the adoption of a platform have not been received. H. J. McKusick, late Superintendent of the Railway Mail service for the Pacific Coast, who was removed and appointed Internal Revenue Agent for California, has been discharged from that position in pursuance of an Act of Congress reducing the number of those agents. Eastern freight is being transferred across the Colorado river at Yuma by steamer as rapidly as the nature of the work admits. No steamers of sufficient capacity for loaded cars being obtainable all freight is required to be broken in bulk and reloaded on the western side. The statement of Grant & Ward's assignee shows a pretty fair clean-up for a couple year's run of their reduction works, the liabilities being $27,139,009 and the assets $67,174. The profits in wine making by the ordinary grower will hardly reach those figures. Everyone knows something of the efficacy of buhach for destroying insects and will be glad to know that the supply is well kept up. Merced is the central point of its cultivation. Soventy-five carloads were shipped from that place last week to Stockton for manufacture into insect powder. Chairman Barnum, of the National Democratic Committee, is the funniest kind of a humorist. He opened the convention at Chicago by saying: "Harmony seems to be the sentiment of this convention." And there, before his very eyes, stood the Tammy and Irving Hall forces, glaring in the most bloodthirsty way at each other! A curious controversy has arisen in Philadelphia. The Park Commissioners have issued an edict that oarsmen must not appear on the Schuylkill river within the boundaries of the park in sleeveless shirts. The park is a public resort, and the Commissioners and ladies walk therein. To them oarsmen's bare arms are shocking. The oarsmen say they cannot do justice to their abilities in a shell with their arms clothed, but, the Commissioners have ideas on morality and propriety which must be preserved though sowing die for it. Some of the amateur oarsmen are prominent in social circles, and talk of applying to the Legislature for the question of a commission to regulate ladies' attractions and enjoyments is almost universal, yet how many of the human family living in this enlightened age of the world have formed the same opinions of the real nature and characteristics of that country? It is true, that from that country, no one has ever returned to give an account of his personal observations and experiences there. In this respect California has an advantage. The descriptions of California that are mostly to be trusted come from eye witnesses—from personal observation and experience, and on this account are valuable for circulation here. The very best argument in favor of our country is a residence there through the seasons of the year. I state here, with emphasis, that I have never yet met in the east a person that has spent a year in California that is not in love with the country and that does not intend to get back there as soon as possible and spend the remainder of life there. The next most convincing argument in favor of our country as a home and place for profitable business, is to be found in an exhibition, on this side, of the fruits and general agricultural products of the country. These address themselves to the eye and to the practical judgment and leave no room for different or conflicting opinions arising from degrees in imagination. Let our people then unite and send samples of their products for exhibition in public places and industrial fairs on this side. Such exhibitions should be made at several of the State fairs in the north this fall and then at the World's Exposition at New Orleans next winter. I. N. Hoag. How will it affect Los Angeles County? The following important news item is printed by the New York Times and telegraphed to the Associated Press: New York, July 5.—The Central Pacific has surrendered the Mojave division of the Southern Pacific. The negotiation relieves the Central Pacific of its most pressing pecuniary wants, but at an immense cost. It gives the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe right to enter San Francisco over the Southern Pacific lines on equal terms with that company, and this gives the Chicago Burlington and Quincy the same privilege. The Central Pacific therefore loses its monopoly of the California trade. The recent reports of the financial embarrassment of the Central Pacific railroad company had some foundation in fact. Three quarters of a million in round figures were sent to New York from San Francisco by the railroad officials. Undoubtedly it was at one time their intention to pass the regular monthly payment of salaries. The final explanation, viz: repairs to the pay car, was generally accepted as a flimsy excuse. The enormous expense of keeping in repair thousands of miles of road during the storms of the last six months, added to a great decrease of traffic has no doubt, caused the financial pressure which has resulted in the great victory to the rival Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe company. It has long been the opinion of railroad financiers that the California syndicate were biting off more than they could chew, and it was only a question of time when it must succumb to the requirements of the great eastern companies. The immediate effect will be to give to the attractions and enjoyments is almost universal, yet how many of the human family living in this enlightened age of the world have formed the same opinions of the real nature and characteristics of that country?

Merced, July 1 led here by Rev.E. Church, and Leach, while marshal streets of the town songs of their band to follow them too and be converted into punishment, were noisy men and boo eggs, rotten apples other filthy misshes them even into tha saunctuary, using profane vile and tinued to pelt these broken up. Rev who led the bar worship, is said t During the last Congressional campaign much was said about what Mr. Tully would do for Southern California. Congress has adjourned and we look in vain to discover tangible results of Mr. Tully's efforts. In fact Mr. Tully was not a brilliant star in the Congressional galaxy. Del Valle if elected will no doubt find the field too large for a successful display of his "jack-in-the-box" requirements. "I-second-the-motion" class of statesmen are small toads in the Washington paddle. The Democratic nominee should weigh at least two hundred and fifty pounds, and the Sixth Congressional District requires better mental timber than has thus far been presented for the suffrages of the voters. Hors are well named, if the remarkable fluctuations in price to which the crop is subject are considered. At one period the price hops higher than the hop-poles, and at another not remote period the price has hopped down to the depths of the bottomless pit. The tendency is now upward, but how long it will continue no man knoweth. A telegram from New York says: "Specials from the interior of the State represent that the hop growers are jubilant over the high prices and favorable condition of the crop. Sales of choice lots of 1883 hops were made last week at 40 cents, and the general market is strong. Fifty cents is confidently talked of, and some farmers expect a repetition of the great boom of 1882, when comfortable fortunes were made in a few weeks. The present rise in the price is ascribed to the failure of the English crop, concerning which leading hopmen in this vicinity keep well informal by cable. These reports say that the English crop is almost a total failure, and the growing eagerness of dealers to pick up hops of last year and 1882 at increasing prices confirms the report." The immediate effect will be to give to the Pacific Coast the benefit of competitive routes to the East, resulting in lower freights and fares. But little forecast can be made of the advantage to our own section. The change can work no harm. The probabilities favor the hope that Los Angeles county will share in the advantages that must accrue to the whole coast by the rivalry of two great transcontinental roads. It is quite evident that Blaine cannot carry London. The electoral vote of England will be a unit against him. The why and wherefore of this opposition is given by the Pall Mall Gazette in the following paragraph: Wherever he can he will oust us from the position which we hold; whenever an opportunity offers he will use it to the uttermost to replace our influence and our trade by the influence and the trade of the United States, and he will regard it as his chief object to promote a great American confederacy under the regs of the Government at Washington, which would tend to increase the export trade of the United States at the expense of that of Great Britain. These are very good reasons why native and naturalized Americans should vote for Mr. Blaine. The Fourth of July orator in San Francisco quoted Daniel Webster as saying "I die an American." The immortal Daniel has fame enough without ascribing another man's thunder to him. The high and lofty sentiment quoted was uttered by Bill Poole, the pugilist, who won his fame by knocking out John Morrissey. A new No. 9 Wheeler & Wilson sewing machine is offered for sale at a large discount. The machine can be seen at D. W. Hudson's real estate office. The Tucson Star mas to the effect in that city. Six railroads are on the offices and the citizens are a great many other points.

Vanderlip was cited to appear on Saturday, July 12, 1884, to show cause why his young ladies of Nevada City are said to go to the summit of Sugar Loaf mountain, near that place, early of a morning to see the Merced, July 5.-The grumhoppers are doing great damage among the gardens, orchards and fields along the easterline of this county, in Mariposa County and in the vicinity of Merced Falls. According to the reports, hoppers are so numerous that they destroy all vegetation in their line of travel. Several valuable orchards and gardens have been ruined for the season, though their incarnation commenced only a few days ago.

Sold by Wm. M. Higgins. The Use of Glucose. It being charged by a San Francisco paper that the canneries used glucose in putting up their fruit, a reply is made by Lusk & Co., from which we take the following: Now regarding the use of glucose in fruits, it is positively a falschool. It is, of course, used in jellies and honeys, as it is by every canner and packer throughout the Eastern States, as it does not injure jellies a particle, but imparts a bright color to them. Besides if it was used in fruits, its presence could be easily detected, and would do a great injury to the packers using it. There are, of course, a few small and uncrumpled packers who are packing poor goods, the same as there are in the Eastern States, but these are known by the Eastern buyer and he buys and sells them for a cheaper class of goods; but the presumption that the large and reliable packers will have to succumb in the course of a few years, must certainly seem erroneous to any sensible person. It is in the canning business, the same as in any manufacturing business—the cost of manufacturing must be legitimately brought down to the lowest possible amount. The larger and reliable packers, as they are known at the East, can certainly manufacture 180,000 cases of goods per year, cheaper than the smaller packers can manufacture 25,000 to 50,000 cases, without deteriorating the quality of the goods. Besides the larger packers recognize the necessity of keeping up and improving the quality of their goods. MERCED, July 6. — The Holiness Band, led here by Rev. Mr. Gill, pastor of the M. E. Church, and his lieutenant, Bailey K. Leach, while marching through the principal streets of the town last night, singing the songs of their band and exhorting the people to follow them to their hall on Main street and be converted and saved from eternal punishment, were set upon by a large mob of noisy men and boys and pelted with stale eggs, rotten apples, decaying vegetables and other filthy missiles, the crowd following them even into their hall, where they sought a sanctuary, using toward them the most profane, vile and obscene epithets, and continued to pelt them until their meeting was broken up. Rev. Mr. Gill, the preacher who led the band in its peculiar mode of worship, is said to have been a most hideous Louis Keckley, the man who burned his house in Oregon, confessed that he dog up a corpse and, placing it in his bed, set fire to the house for the purpose of getting the insurance on his life. He has been held on two charges—desecrating a grave and arson. In one of the San Francisco markets is a wonderful ear of corn. It consists of sixteen separate and distinct cobs, enclosed in the same husks. Naturally enough, the cobs are small, but each one carries a fair quota of well-developed grains. Young ladies of Nevada City are said to go to the summit of Sugar Loaf mountain, near that place, early of a morning to see the sun rise. The mothers probably stay at home and do the uneesthetic work of getting breakfast. At Reno, Nev., last Monday, three county prisoners, who refused to work upon the streets upon the plea that they did not wish to make a show of themselves, were chained to the iron fence in front of the Courthouse and there left during the day. Leland Stanford, C. P. Huntington, Charles Crocker, C. F. Crocher, Timothy Hopkins and W. V. Huntington, Directors of the Central Pacific Railroad Company, observed the legal formality of holding an election for directors on Tuesday. It is superfluous to add that they re-elected themselves. On Governor Stanford's ranche, Vina, Tehama county, last week a large tree was struck by lightning and literally riven into toothpicks, the ground being strewn with a shower of charred chips. The Chinamen on the ranche could not be induced to pick up the debris, as they considered it to be the work of an evil spirit, and there was not a cloud in the sky when the event occurred. The State Fish Commissioners have 70,000 young trout at the Siebeyatchery in Nevada county, which will be planted within the next few weeks. Next week about 13-090 will be deposited in Santa Cruz county. The Lenni hatchery has deposited 25,000 young trout in Sonoma creek. The Commissioners will meet in Sacramento on the last Saturday of July. In blowing up a big stump on the line of the Lono Prieta Railroad, in Santa Cruz county, last Saturday, a fragment weighing 309 pounds was blown several hundred yards and shattered the kitchen of George McCrell's house. The stick rebounding broke through the side of the building and struck Mrs. McCrell, who was standing four or five feet distant, with force sufficient to break both legs and throw her violently against an adjacent building. The proprietor of a new saloon at San Bernardino permitted the Holiness Band of that place to occupy his premises for fifteen minutes on the opening day last week. They prayed for the downfall of his trade and the leader made an eloquent address from the vantage ground of his keno table. There was a large crowd, which probably explains the salmon man's toleration. When they had retired it is not recorded that there was any spasm of reform among the old soakers present. A year ago yesterday Joseph Burke, thirteen years of age, and son of N. P. Burke, who resides at No. 1024 Pacific street, while playing with a toy pistol shot himself in the left eye. The skin around the eye and the eyeball were blackened with powder, but a surgeon could not find the bullet. The sight finally returned to the eye, and the accident was partially forgotten. Night before last the boy complained of a pain in the wound edge, and while washing his face yesterday morning the bullet dropped into the bowl. S. F. Bulletin. THE REV. GEO. H.

The Tucson Star has advice from Guaymas to the effect that yellow fever is raging in that city. Six persons in the employ of the railroads are stricken with it, three in the offices and three in the machine shops. The citizens are very much alarmed and a great many are leaving for Nogales and other points. The appearance of the fever is a month earlier than last year and it is feared that it may result disastrously. A continuance of a dry spell will tend to make the fever spread, and some uneasiness is expressed for fear this may come. In addition to the cases above named, there are others who are afflicted, while a few have died in the last week. This information was obtained from a reliable source and there can be no doubt as to the authenticity of the report. Worms Killing Sheep. A gentleman interested in the wool business states that he has received information that the sheep on many of the ranges in the vicinity of Lake Tahoe are suffering from the attacks of a worm, which operates at the base of the neck, and has caused death in many instances. The flocks of Perry Richardson, of Sheriden and Mrs. E. J. Atkinson, are mentioned among those who have suffered. This ailment is something new, unless it is allied to the attacks of grub worms in the heads of sheep. For the latter trouble turpentine poured upon the head and rubbed in has proved a remedy.
