CONCERNING FORMER SAcaAMENTAN.
The following mention of q gentleman
formerly a highly esteemed citizen of
Sacramento, is clipped from St. AL
bans, w., Journal: "E. f. Perkins,
formerly Master Mechanic of the Yer
mout Central, and more recently Super
intendent of the motive power and roll
ing stock Of the Central Pacific Railroad,
has received the appointment of General
Superintendent of the Southern Pacific
Railroad and has already left Boston,
where he has been temporarily sojourn-
ing, for St. Louis, the headquarters of
the road. Cars now run on the new
road 28l miles southwest from that
city, and the track will be pushed through
to the Pacific coast as fast rs possible.
Perkins is capable, energetic and ex.
perienced railroad man, and the Direc-
tors might have searched long and wide
and not found his peer"

SHIRT OF THE AGE.

Capitalization of Power. -"

Henry Clay once said in the United
States Senate: "Give us war, pesti-
lence, or famine, rather than that a mil
itary chieftain should rule this free and
fair Republic Mr.. Clay's apprehen-
sions are about being fully realized, as
the central government is daily interfer-
ing with the local concerns of the States,
even TO controlling of the elections by
bayonets.
When writing upon this same subject
the late Hon. John Quincy Adams truly
said :--"Thc history Of the world is re-
plete with examples of military com.
m,nders aud demagogues becoming
usurpcrs aud tyrants; and oftheir fellow
citizens becoming their Instruments and
slaves. Adams life Of Madison and
Monroe, page All II the danger Of
electing an ignorant Military Chiettain
to the head of our government is not
now being realized in this country, then
we confess that we do not know the
meaning of actions or Of words Look
at Grants interference in State elections,
and at the unwarran,able, unlawful and
usurping act of ordering Uuited States
troops into States for the purpose OF
controlling their respective elections.
Look at the many meetings held by the
President aud Cabinet for the purpose
Of considering upon covering State cleo
lions, with which they really have, hon
estly and coustitutionaily, nothing to do,
If these lawess bare-faced acts do not
show that our government is fas, tending
towards q centralized power, a mon,
archy, an autocrasy, ,heh We are greatly
mistaken. We call upon the people of
the United States, irrespective of politi
cal party, to rise in their majesty and
strength, by the power of the ballot, aud
hurl these unjust rulers from place and
power. The future existence and well
fare Of our system Of free government
demands it,

A COUNTRY WITHOUT GREENBAcKs. -
The Overland Monthly tells how the
Mormons manage TO get along without
greenbacks:
Hundreds Of farmers, living in reason
ably comfortable circumstances, and
having large families to clohe and edu.
cate, wll not see a dollar in money for
years. Such farmer wishes to purchase
n pair of shoes for his wife. He con.
suits The shoemaker, who AYERS his will
lingncss to furnish the same for one load

calf for II quantity Of a0obes, The adobes

In this primitive method, until the adj
vent of the railroad. nine-tenths Of the
business Of the territory was conducted.
And even now, in the more remote set
temr nts, majority of all transactions
are Of this character.

COUNTING OUT DEMOCRATS Those
rascally radicn's in the South are en-
tagged in counting out democrats again.
Every dispatch from Arkansas, from
republican as well AS democratic sources,
has agreed 10 saying that the State has
been carried by the democracy, who had
elected two ont Of the three members of
Congress Carpet-bag Senator Rice
telegraphs now that the radicals have
carried every'hing-the State. the Leg
islaiure, aud the three Congressman.
OF course the scoundrels have counted
out the democrats. Thus it was in So.
Carolina and Louisiana. And by such
gross swiudes characleres., irresponsi-
bile aiveutnrers are elevated TO office and
placed in power over the North. How
long d, these wretches think the people
of the South will submit to their swim
ding, or the people of the North pas
siyely witness the preparation of the
swindles?

The LAND GRABBERs.-The various
lobbies are beginning to make up their
little games for the coming session Of
Congress. Among the most important
Of these are the railroad, telegraph and
steamship lobbies, all of whom want
land or money, or both, ostensibly to
carry out great public measures for the
improvements of the country, but really
to enrich certain "rings formed for
swindling everybody in general and pa
tent Uncle Sam in particular Land
was first granted for public improve
ments in 1927, when illinois received a
million acres in aid of the Wabash and
Erie Canal, but it was not till 1850 that
railroads received such aid, the Illinois
Central Railroad being endowed at that
time with over two and a half million
acres. Prior to 1861 the railroad grants
to States amounted to 39,971, 1926 acres.
Those made to States since 1861 amount
to 2S,932, 553 acres. The grants made
in aid of the Pacific Railroads have been
made direct to the corporations, and
these amount to 135,000,0O0. For ca
nails the whole amount granted has been
4, 405, 1856 acres, for wagon roads 1926
900 acres, and for harbor and river i'm
about 100000 acres, max
ing total Of over two hundred million
acres, or three hundred and twenty
thousand square miles-a territory as
large as forty States like Massachusetts.
There are pending forty-six bills asking
grants of land to the amount of nearly
150,000,000 acres more. Several of
these bills ask for money as we'll as land,
and it only remains to be seen how well
the lobby will be managed and what
success it will achieve. Last winter the
House of Representatives unanimously
adopted resolution emphatic against
the granting of any more lands to rail-
roads and other corporations, but the
subsequent action Of Congress is largely
the grant to the Northern
Pacific Railroad shows how little such
a clap trap resolution means.

The holders of some of the Alabama
claims are trying to get settlement
from England without waiting for the
action Of our government in the matter
any longer. The total money value of
the claims is stated at Sl9, 100000, and
those interested have assurances from
England that the money will be paid
over if our government will consent to
the transaction, which it has not yet
been willing to do. Nor ought it to
consent at any time but instead of that,
to assume the claims itself, pay the
proper amount to the claimants, and
then press the matter home upon John
Bull. The journal of Commerce says
that the claimants are going to "agitate
the subject" and hopes they will succeed
in driving our government from its
present position on the Alabama ques
ton. We have no fear that they will,
but they should have their money and
keep quiet.

cities to suffer a slaughtering work in

900 by this pretended census. Balti
more, we see, is reported at "270,O00.
Yet in 1868 the local census of that city
showed population of over $4,000!
and it is known that the city has gained
since 1868, instead of losing 100000.
Naturally the people of that highly
prosperous city feel aggrieved, and pro-
pose to have new census.

ming with Catamouut.' Darling tells
us "Why our Wedding was Postponed"
in his most comical manner, and then
there is Il Christmas story, full of hui
maui,y and goodness, and three or four
love stories which will bear perusal half
a dozen times, and Lost and Found is
a regular California tale, by new as
pirant for fame in the columns of Bal

articles worth reading, in the shape of
sketches, poetry, etc, etc, and all for
the sum of 10 cents per copy, or $3.50
