We have no objection to offer to the action
of the six gentlemen, including Col. II. h.
hewitt. the Superintendent OF the Los Anee-
les Division OF the Southern Pacific railroad,
who sat as q Chamber of Commerce las
night and adopted resolutions III reference 10
the Archer bill.-E1prcSs.
The above is a canine yelp at the
Chamber of Commerce in general and
at Col. HEWITT in particular. Col.
HEWITT is member of the Chamber
of Commerce, and he attended q called
meeting of that body on Thursday
evening as a member. He volnn-
teered no statement on the subject
under discussion until called upon by
the Chamber for information which
he, as Superintendent of our railroads,
was deemed competent to give. The
covert insinuatlon contained in the
above "no objection" will of course be
duly appreciated by Col. HEWITT and
the other members of our Chamber OF
Commerce.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Gilmartinsand
Charles Perry were discovered COM
mltting q burglary in Cleveland i'll
April, 1875. A battle ensued between
them and the police, in which an of1i-
Ger named Kirk was killed Three of
the six were captured, but Williams,
Billy Caldwell and Perry got away.
Soon after the capture the three es-
capped from Jail, and it is supposed
they had assistance from the three
confederates who got away. These
three are now in this State. Williams,
who is now in San Quentein, Cald-
well, and Perry, who was tried in the
Municipal Court a few months since
for burglary, but by making Judge
Blake believe that he was under IS
years of age, he was sent to the Indus
trial School. This afternoon he was
brought in and locked in the city pris-
on. From information received from
Mr.. Walden, Superintendent of Police
in New York, Burns, alias Henry
Moore, alias Williams, and Billy
Caldwell are wanted there also. Ar
rangements are being perfected be-
tween the detectives of San Francisco
and Chicago and Cleveland whereby
Williams and Caldwell, and the other
under indictment for murder in those
cities, will be sent back there on trial.
In case the authorities fail to convict
them they will be returned to Califor-
MIA to finish their term of imprison-
ment here.

OUR street railroad owners who de-
sign purchasing new cars at an early
day should visit Sacramento and ex-
anime the Stevenson car now in use
on the roads of that city. This car is
manufactured in New York city and
is the neatest, most convenient and
most substantially made one horse
street car we have seen. The car is
light yet strong and beautifully, even
elegantly finished. 1t has many i'm
provements on the common car now
in use, one of which is the arrange
ment of the check strap around the
sides of the car just behind the passen-
pers thus enabling lady to sigma
the oriver without bursting her cor
sets ana disarranging her pull back
through haSing to reach up to the
roof of the ear fer the bell strap. An
other by no means inconsiderable ad-
vantage which the STEVENSON arc
has over that of California mapufac-
ture is that being made of thoroughly
seasoped timber, its panels never
check and split. Those in use in
Sacramento have given entire satis-
faction both to the owners and the
travelling public. Mr.. MARK A. MIL
LER, COS Market street San Francisco,
the California agent of the STEVEN
SON Car Company will be pleased to
give any information required rela-
tive to the cost and quality of these
cars

The Union league.

NEW YORK, March 9.-.The Union
League club in closing, representing
and believing they truly express the
sentiments of the Republican voters,
declare in view Of the recent exposures
OF corruption and fraud in the admin
istration OF public affairs, the welfare
of the Republican party, as well as of
the country, demands searching and
thorough investigation of the condir
tion and conduct of every branch of
the publie service, to the end that all
corrupt parties may be brought to
light, and that all who have abused
and betrayed their public trust, what
soever may be their station, may be
exposed and punished. That the eX-
igencies of party as we'll as country at
this time demand PRESIDENT who
shall be deservedly recognized as re-
former as well as Republican.

CHICAGO, March 9th.-The indioa-

and most of the other parties indicted
for whiskey frauds We're about to sue
comb and plead guilty, is daily veri-
fled with the determination to do was
arrived at. 1t is said after two or three
meetings of the interested parties on
such matters it was considered. In all
its bearings 1t was decided that thew
should act in concert, the results be-
ing the persistent visits of several par
ties and their counsel to the office of
the District Attorney Bangs which
have been going on for two or three
days for the purpose of feeling their
way gradually to the disposition of
the government in case they will own
to the truth and save the necessity of
trial and telling all they know about
the whislkey ring. Hessing has for
counsel Colonel Jassen. Buffalo Mil
ler and all those interested in the last
lot of indictments in which case nolle
pros will be entered in the others.
District Attorney Bangs refuses to say
whether the bargain had been consum-
mated, but admits that it is likely q
be. Ex-Deputy Collector Hoyt alone of
all others will not change his plea and
in his case Mr.. Bangs thinks things
look extremely ugly.

o Republican official worthy of the
name. But when MARSH of New
York appeared before the Committee
and testified and produced the written
evidence to substantiate his testimo-
ny, that he had procured of Secretary
BELKNAP a contract for post trader
ship at Fort Sill and other points in
the Southwest, for which he had paid
the wife of the Secretary 100000 and
$4,000 per year since the date of the
contract, why, poor BELKNAP flattened
like a pound of butter under quartz
crusher, and after admitting himself
guilty of the charge, begged that his
wife might not be disgraced, as if she
could be more disgraced than he had
himself disgraced her, or as if the wo-
man who would sell her husbands
honor for 100000 and an annuity Of
$4,000 was particularly sensitive of the
subject of disgrace. BELKNAP wont
do for Republican official. He has
all the recommendatory qualities of
BABCoeK, a JOYCE or MCKEE with
the single exception of nerve to bra
zen it QUITO maintain his innocence
against mountain of evidence more
overwhelming than proofs of Holy
Writ. Get thee to foreign country,
BELKNAP. your political race is run,
your official career is at an end, you
have disgraced your party. Not be-
cause you have stolen but because you
have confessed your guilt, your party
will never forgive you.

Not The Kind of Stuff.

Clearly Secretary BELKNAP was
never intended for Republican office
holder. He is not composed of the
stuff of which these gentlemen are
made. He weakens quickly whereas
the genuine Republican official never
weakens. When the CLYMER Inves-
tigating Committee charged the Sec
retary of War with peculation and
rascality he faltered and. stammered
and his knees smote together. This is
an evidence of weakness never seen In

STRONG POWER.

There is evidence of almighty power in the
creation and preservation Of the world. Who,
but an omnipotent God, could make and keep
in existence the world? Who, but an om-
nipotent God, could guide and govern all
things? None, is the universal response.
Great as is the work Of creation and proyi-
dence, the salvation of sinner is far greater.
If we may be permitted to use such an ex-
preston, the most difficult thing God ever un-
dertook was to save ruined man. 1t took the
death of the Son of God to redeem him, and
no other being but the Holy Ghost can re-
generate soul dead in tresspasses and SINS
Angels gaze with amazement at their stu
pendous work. Who can bring clean thing
out of an ;unclean2) God alone. This we
never could have known, did God not quick
en- the soul dead in tresspass and sin. Who
can save the guilty.? God alone This pre-
cious truth would have been concealed from
all intelligent beings, had not God given his
son to die the Just for the unjust. What can
change heart filed with all wickedness, with
hatred, envy and malice, into a heart filled
with love and gratitude? God, through the
atonement of his son, can do this. What
demonstration of power!
