Weekly Trinity journal., 1868-11-28

STATE ASYLUM FOR INEBRIATEs. - Some time
since the Oakland Transcript contained an able
article in support Of the proposition to establish
in California an asylum for inebriates. The
Sacramento Record copies the article, and in
dulges in the following favorable remarks =.
Our State is young yet, but it is not too early
to take this matter in hand. For the purpose of
revenue we issue licenses for the sale of liquors.
and it is but fair that the State should take care
of the victims. 1t has long since been conceded
by the scientific men of the world that drunken
ness is disease, which should be treated pretty
much as any other malady. We don't know but
it would be matter of economy for the State to
establish such an asylum, for it would certainly
save many from the lunatic asylum, and be the
means of lessening the number of helpless Or
phans. There are to-day thousands of men in
this State who could by proper treatment be
cured of this horrible disease. We trust news
papers generally will discuss this matter, and
that the temperance men and all friends of hu-
mainly will take the matter into consideration.
and at the proper time make a move in its ia
vor.''
Weekly Trinity journal., 1868-11-28

SILLy.-In the face of the fact that the State
has gone for Grant by FIVE hundred majority, ma,
ny Democrats refuse to surrender bets under the
silly pretence that the result cannot be correctly
known until the official vots is canuassed by the
Secretary Of State. This is trivial. Under the
law it is the duty of the Secretary of State to
DECLARE the vote on Monday, November 3oth.-
All that is required of him is to examine the Off
cal vote and see that the footings of the several
county Clerks are correct. As the Boards of
Canvassers and Clerks of the counties giving
Republican majorities are generally if not uni
sersaiiy Black, is any Democrat silly enough
to believe that those officers would be equally
silly in sending incorrect footings to the Secre-
tary of State. The old saw of q poor excuse
Is better than none, is fully exempifed in this
matter. Nexr Monday will settle it.
Weekly Trinity journal., 1868-11-28

MOB OUTRAGEs IN LAKE CoUNrY-On the 18th
OF TINS month mob numbering three hundred
men from the upper portion of Clear Lake, des-
"oyed the extensive grist and lumber mill prop
erty situated on Cache creek, two miles below
the outlet of the Lake. The mills were burned
and the dam demolished. The damage done is
estimated at over one hundred thousand dollars
"a bill which Lake county will have to pay
The cause of action alleged by the destroyers
is that the mill dam had backed the waters of
the Lake to such an extent as to overflow thous-
ands of acres of valuable agricultural lands
along its borders
Weekly Trinity journal., 1868-11-28

CoN4kss.-The New York Tribune contains
the following terrific slash at the tumultuous in
dIyedual who, during the time of poor McDou-
gal, enjoyed the distinction of being ssour only
sober Senator -" The next Congress will con-
tain among its new representatives, notably.
Gen. Nagley and Dan VOORHEES,, and among the
new Senators Judge Thurman, a new face from
Indiana, and new one from PENNSYLVANIA.
Conness will depart-another loss of familiar
noise he was one of the articulate pomposities
who were released upon public life by the bullet
that killed Frederick. Out of the lion crawIed
an inordinate number of little beings, each
claiming to be part of him.
Weekly Trinity journal., 1868-11-28

PAYING THEIR BETs.-Some of the Democrats
who have lost money on the result of the election
in this State paying their bets, without wait
ing for the official announcement of the result
from the Secretary of State. J. r. Horton YES
terday received a check from Sonoma county for
$500 in payment of bet, the Democrat who
wagered with him being satisfied that the State
had gone for Grant. Most of these bets would
undoubtedly be paid now, but for the advice of
certain Democratic papers, which pretend that
the result is doubtful in order to cover up their
recent stupidity or wanton falsehood in assam.
ing Wat the State has gone for Seymour when
the reeurns prove the contrary. If they can de-
rive am satisfaction in knowing that thew have
caused 2nany poor man to part with his hard
earninga they ought to be happy.-Sau Francisco
Weekly Trinity journal., 1868-11-28

SARGENT FOR SPEAKER OF THE HoUsE.-The
Alpine Chronicle suggests the name o.. Aaron A.
Sargent as the successor of Schuyler Colfax 20
the Speakershp of the House of Representatives
and adds -" California, though yet in her mi
nority, occupies prominent position in the
great family of States, and is justly entitled to
one of her gifted sons occupying prominent po-
sition in the councils of the nation, and has the
right to ask thut the next Congress place Aaron
A. Sargent in the chair now occupied by him
who, as Vice President, is called to preside over
the Senate"
We second Sargent's nomination, and shall
work for him.-Grass Valley Union.
The sugges ton is a good one, and one in
which the people of California, irrespective of
politics, we'll as the press, should concur. If
a Californian is to have place in Grants Cab
met, we hope Sargent will be the man.
Weekly Trinity journal., 1868-11-28

GIVE THIS MATTER Your ArrEsrIoS-It is
hardly necessary to suggest that this people is
not overburdened in the way of public entertain
ment or.recreation, and especially of nature to
be duly appreciated by the children and youth
who are growing up among US. For this reason
it is proposed to make the approaching Christ
mas holiday what we believe it was originally
intended to be-a time of gladness, more par
ticularly for the young and little folks. All who
favor the preparation of a community Christmas
tree-one towards decorating which all classes
and ereeds of people may donate, and on which
holiday presents for relative or friend, young or
old, may be displayed, are invited to be present
at the courtroom on next Tuesday evening, De-
cember LIST. We sincerely hope our citizens
will favor the proposition, and encourage it by
their presence at the time specified. very
slight effort or donation on the part of citizens
will result in great deal of happiness and good
feeling. If we are to have Christmas tree, it is
time move was made in the matter, and the
necessary committee appointed. How many will
attend next Tuesday night?
Weekly Trinity journal., 1868-11-28

NME-rENTHs.-Recent dispatches give the in
formation that the Gear Alexander, of Russia,
has issued nkase, by which nine tenths of the
drinking saloons now existing in the empire of
Russia will be suppressed. While it must be
regarded as a pity that the Gear did not make a
clean sweep of the remaining tenth, while his
hand was in" still, what be has done may be
accepted gratefully as an important era in the
history of the temperance reform. Only lately,
this great monarch abolished serfdom in his do
minions, and this second great act would indi-
cate that Alexander proposes to make his reign
one of marked progress in the principles of civil
Tfues
Weekly Trinity journal., 1868-11-28

AsorBER.-The Quincy Union (Democratic)
has stopped publication since the election. The
proprietor intends to remove the press and type
to Laporte, where he will issue an independent
paper. We hope Kellogg won't make his new
paper quite as independent in . Democratic
point of view as the Union has been.
Weekly Trinity journal., 1868-11-28

HosrIrAL BExovEB.-Dr. Chauncey having
contracted with the county for the care of the
INDECENT sick during the current year, has re-
moved the patients from the old Hospital to his
Infrmary on Court street, where their necessi-
ties can be more promptly responded to. The
change will be gratifying one to the unfortu-
mates for whose benefit the county institution
was especially established.
