Free Speech and Free Press.

a late number of the EUening Ec-
press contains an editorial In which a
recent decision of the Supreme Court
of this State is severely criticised, and
the Court istelf spoken of in terms the
reverse of complimentary. This free
country, and the right of every man
to express his opinion of everybody
else is one of che inalienable privileges
that grew out of the Revolution, and
has propagated itself from generation
to generation, until every American
citizen would feel that his rights were
invaded and his liberties threatened,
If he could not indulge in an OCCASION
al swear at the President or any
member of his Cabinet. Free
Speech and Free Press" are senti-
ments we all indorse until we happen
to feel the lash of one or both of these
powers; after that we are not so en-
thusiastic on the subject of freemen's
rights. 1t may be as the Express says,
that our Supreme Court is disgrace
to the State, but the recent decision of
that Court denying the right of the
Legislature to grant special and ex-
elusive franchises to individuals and
corporations, is 10 evidence of such
disgrace. The principle on which this
decision is based is one of great impor-
tance to the people of California, and
the sooner the theory that few men
may be enriched through the bestowa
of exclusive privileges, at the expense
and inconvenience of the many, is
effectually exploded, the better it will
be for the people. The last decision of
the Supreme Court, in the Spring VAL
ley Water Company's case, is the cor

couple of years, one day the farmer
strapped it on his back and went out
into the garden, resolved to squirt the
contents OF the machine without fur
ther delay. The first thing on which
he turned the pipe was patch of half
bug-eaten potato plants. In a few
moments he noticed the ground COW
cred with dead potato-bugs, and by
the time the machine was empty not
a live bug could be found in the gar
den, and the farmer had found a new
and valuable use for his Babcock ex-
tinguisher. The experiment of the
Indiana farmer has suggested the pos
sibility that the chemical compound
used in the extinguisher may be use
full in killing the insects that some
times damage the trees and fruit of
this country.

A LADY correspondent has written
the editor of the HERALD a pretty lit
tie note, in which she desires to know
if comets are dangerous. For the life
of US, we cannot answer this question
satisfactorily. Comets are dangerous
or not, just as it happens. The comet
is good deal like o woman-a pretty
one. We have read that comets are
capable of doing much harm, but we
never knew of their doing any serious
damage. They frighten the ignorant,
but those who have studied their ma
ture do not fear them. Here again
they resemble woman in being very
eccentric. They move rapidly, but
you can never tell within a neighbor
or two where they are going nor when
they will be back. Fair lady, the
comet is not more dangerous than
Yourself.

Alarmed.

The Santa Barbara Press sees cause
for alarm in the recent race of the
Granada and Vasco de CANA between
San Francisco aud Yokohama, and
fears we shall soon have to record the
narrowing details of an explosion at
sea. We have no means of knowing
just how great a pressure the boilers
of these two steamers We're required to
sustain. Nothing serious, we imagine,
as steamship companies nowadays
have horror of large coal bills. The
other trace cited by the PresS-that
of the steamers Los Angeles and Sen
ator-was also free of danger, for after
the first hour the vessels were SO dis
tant from each other that there was
no longer cause for excitement. In
eighteen hours the Los Angeles was
about one hundred miles nearer San
Francisco than the Senator. Such
tracing" is not dangerous to the trav-
cling public.

fore putting in the vinegar Wooden
or silver spoons, forks or knives should
be employed in preparing all kinds OF
pickles. Glazed jars on the inside
must never be used to hold acid pickles,
because they produce poisonous effect
upon the vinegar. Large -mouthed glass
bottles are decidedly the best for small
quantities while wooden firkins can be
taken for larger amounts.

egar used add one heaping tablespoon
full of ground pepper, cloves and all
spice; also two ounces of white mus
tard seed, and two onions, chopped fine.
Put the whole mixture, after stirring it
well together, into porcelain kettle,
and let it boil just two minutes. Keep
closely covered, and add two or three
roots of horse radish, sliced lengthwise,
to the top of the pickles. This will
prevent all pickles from holding In
a week it will be fit for the table.

Lion Hunting on a Steamship.

ing "Lion hunting on board a steam

account givea by a correspondent of the
Times of India it appears that on the

ton of the two rivers Euphrates and
Tigris, where the rivers had overflown
the embankments, three full-grOwn
lions were seen walking along the shore
III the water about mile ahead of the
steamer. On nearing the beasts one was
shot dead while trying TO swim toward
the ship. The launch was manned to
pick up the carcass, and the steamer
pursued the two others, who turned
round to charge the vessel After
many shots had been fired at them one
was struck dead by the commander, and
the other was shortly afterward dis
patched by a bullet from a SnIder.
The steamer then approached the bank
and the dead lions, or rather lIonesses
for such they proved tt be. were taken
on board. About ten minutes later 9
large male lion was observed crouchine

dead, and his dimensions were as fol
