gA-1t seems that we have not convinced the
Stars and Stripes of its error in relation to The
boundary line between Suffer and Placer but
having started wrong, it will persist in being
stupid, and continues to doggedly assert that we
misrepresent the case.
That paper says Suffers initial point is on
the Sacramento river ten miles south of the
mouth of Feather" and that "Placer's initial
point is and always has been on the Sacramento
several miles further down" The first sentence
in quotations is corrcct-Mr. Boulwares bill estab-
fishes the initial point of Suffer on the Sacra-
mento ten miles below the mouth of Feather
river; and the boundary of Sacramento county is
obtained by running line due north from the
mouth of the I'm rican river. and then west
until it strikes the Sacramento. 1T this point
comes the difficulty. From the point reached on
the Sacramento river. by the line last men toned
to the mouth OF the Fea ther the distance is not
ten miles. but only about FIVE. Now to give
Sacramento and Placer these points on the river.
the initial point of Suffer could not be more
than about five miles south of the Feather. But
rs Mr.. Boulwares bill is the last legislation on
the subject and places the initial point of Suffer
on the Sacramento ten miles below the mouth of
the Feather. other lines must be governed thereby.
Sacramento is still entitled to run a line ten
miles due north from the mouth Of the american
but in continuing the line from thence west
toward the river the new boundary of Suffer
would be intersected before the river would be
reached. Consequently Placer would be shut off
from point on the river, and Sacramento also
lose triangular point On the river. The Stars
and Stripes as well AS Legislators have erred as
to the distance between the mouths Of the .4meri-
can and Feather rivers on the lines named 1t is
not as great as supposed. and hence this over
tapping Of territory. But Suffer having had the
last say, acquires about 900 of land that
has for years been within the official survey OF
the Placer county boundary.
If our contemporary cannot yet see it, we would
recommend study of the statutes in connec
ton with the U. S. official land surveys

EE The Democratic County Convention
will assemble to-day to elect State delegates
who will assemble at San Francisco on Tuesday
next, for the purpose of choosing representa-
tives TO the Chicago Presidential Convention.
Although the political campaign cannot be
said to have commenced, and no attempt
has been made to give particular prominence
to the name of any gentleman for Democratic
nomination, it is a cheering sign of the times
that our County Conventions have been
we'll attended, and harmonious in action.
It is an evidence that the histor cal
Democratic party yet lives, compact, deter
mined. reliant in the truth'of its principles,
and We. dares to aim at victory. 1t has sur
vived defeat, Misrepresentation, OPPRESSION
and contumely, and is preparing with the
vgor of younger days to combat for written
Constitutions and laws--for free speech and
tree press; and to oppose usurpations and
violations Of law from whatever source.
If any man supposes that the Democratic
DartV 10 crushed anu uisHeoi lehou, "o ID
mistaken. So confident is the party in the
purity and truth of their principles, that they
rise superior to defeat and disaster, and
will never say die as long as lingering
hone for constitutional freedom exists.
The Democrats of California are going
into the coming canvass to win. Not with
bayonets-not by violence of any kind, but
with facts and arguments that will be IRE
sistible weapons in good cause.
The Democrats of Placer expect to bear
credi,able part in the contest. They are
now free. limbed and strong, have nothing
remaining of fueds and old time disagree
ments, are marching shoulder to shoulder to
the time of Democratic music.
Our Convention to day will start the ball.
and it will rol! on, from now until November,
increasing as it goes, and by that time will
crush and cripple the mongrel Abolition
miscegenaton party of this county beyond
recognition.

Our.-The Stars and Stripes and its party
have been sorely troubled that Mr.. Barnard
and Mr.. Fannon have continued in office,
as Treasurer and Supervisor, few weeks
longer than the remainder of the officials.
As these gentlemen conceived they had legal
rights in the premises, they were not in the
least inundated by abuse or threats, but
waited the action of the District Court
and when the decision Of that tribunal was
against them, and they were notified to re-
l,uouish their Offices, they complied without
murmur. They will carry their cases to
the Supreme Court for 6nsl adjudication.

HOME RAISED TRoUr.-The experiment of
raising the California mountain trout in ar
tlficial ponds has proved a complete success
in the hands of Engineer Won Schmidt, of
the Spring Valley Water Works, and it is
now demonstrated that they can be grown
to almost any size, and greatly improved in
flavor and quality by judicious feeding.
One of the trout brought to Laguna Honda
when mere minnow, has grown to the
length of nineteen inches, and weighs two
and half pounds; and another, which has
been brought down to the Companys office
is now sixteen inches in length. No one is
permitted to disturb them at the Laguna,
and they have become almost tame and in
different to the approach Of man a, any
other domestic animal. Any ranchman or
gardener having good spring of clear wa
ter Of sufficient capacity to fill a small pond
or tank, could, with very little trouble, raise
all the trout he would require for his private
table, and that, too, without the outlay of a
dollar after his pond was once stocked with

ANOTHER ARGUMENT FOR EcoNoMY.-Ths
Geographic dispatches received to-day in.
dictate an immediate temporary increase of
duties on foreign goods and permanent
increase to be made by the forthcoming re,
yised tariff. Importers and holders Of foreign
goods have already drawn their inference
and commenced action accordingly. Tho
great public, the people, should be no less
swift to draw their inference-that in Wow
of the increased price or all articles not Of
home production or manufacture and tho
prospect scarcely less clear of an increase Of
Internal Revenue taxes, personal economy
is a necessity, retrenchmeut doubly q virtue
and avoidance Of all extravaganza Of living q
demand of patriotism. The government
loses dime OF duty when one declines to
purchase an imported article and makes
dollars by the improvement Of the finances
of the citizen. Unless imports, which only
vanity aud ett-minancy clamor for, corrupt
and demoralzs the people, fit them, for
bankruptcy and ruin. Economy, which
these times and taxes are making easy, nur-
lures independent, stawart men. The
country wants money but men more The
republic demands self-denal and "calcula.
ton" Of all its citizens. S. Il. Bulletin.

COUGHING HoRsEs-CAUsEs AND CURE -
1t is well known that feeding horses on clo
yer hay often makes them cough, but the
why and wherefore may not be so generally
known. From observations have become
fully satisfied that the manner of feeding hay
to horses is the cause. The usual custom is
to let them draw it through rack, thus
stripping off the fine dust which adheres to
the stalk, which being drawn into the lungs
in perspiration produces the cough. The
cure consists in removing the cause-that is,
the racks-and allowing the animal to take
their food in the natural way. | have re-.
moved all of mine, and now feed my horses
on the barn floor, having a breastwork snffi
GENTLY high for them to eat over In this
way they can be fe1 without raising dust,
the get none under their feet and the labor
of cleaning out hangers is saved. Whatever
is left is easily pushed out with rake into
the yard for the cattle The dust of the hay
will do the horses no harm, if taken into
the stomach. Since making the improves
ment above mentioned in my feeding appar-
a,us, am not troubled with coughing horses.
There is no patent on my invention; my
brethren can use it freely.
