Pungent Chat.

From the San francisco Merchant
A mans friends sometimes are
indiscreet in their attemps to adj
vance his interests, and probably
Judge McKinstry feels that way in
regard to his name being mention.
ed for the Vice-Presidency on the
Democratic ticket. Judge Nc
Kinstry is an excellent lawyer, has
made an honest Judge, and is de-
servedly popular with all classes in
California, but has no more chance
of being Vice-President than Pix
ley has of being Governor. There
is one advantage we can see, how
ever, in bringing Judge McKin-
stry's name foreward, it may serve
to head off Justice Field.
This is the playful manner in
which the Amador Times treats
stocks:
Who concluded to gamble in stocks;
And in twenty-four hours,
He swore: by the powers,
I'm glad to escape with my socks"
The Bulletin is right in recon-
menoing the new immigration So
ciety and the Legislature to use
every means to get Congress to
make q suitable appropriation for
the survey Of 40,000,000 acres OF
public lands in this State.
A French feet bonn harding New
York would not be more destruct-
i've to American prosperity than
Leon Chotteau's proposition for a
conventional tariff with France, if
Congress and the Administration
should approve it.
Most people report "business
quiet, but prices firm" We think
such will continue to be the case
until spring, when our genuine
boom will come along. Until then
we may conclude to take 1t easy.
If Chotteau wins the fight, good
by to the California wine Industry;
good-by to the silk trade of Ameri-
Ca; good-by to the prosperity of the
United States.

Leal. Cho otteau,s strength.

The action of Fernando Wood In
taking up the point on which Sem
ator Kelly relied as one means of
beating Leon Chotteau's conven-
tional treaty with France, and em.
bodying It in resolution offered
in the House of Representatives,
looks as IL Chotteau's friends had
b cen counting noses and found they
had q majority. The people of this
State, no matter what their occu-
patton, are convinced that such
reconstruction of the tariff as Chot-
teau proposes would be ruinous to
our most promising industry =
wine making. But our people
are far from being alive to
the danger there is of this
iniquitous measure passing Con-
Rress, and the suicidal treaty being
negotiated and ratified. Because
Chotteau has no friends here, they
suppose he has none elsewhere. 1t
IL q mistake; his smooth tongue
and plausible arguments have gain
ed the adherence of thousands, nay,
of whole States. Chambers OF Com
merce, the Press and Congressman,
have been captured by his glitter
ing promises. California has few
allies of whom only two have yet
shown much interest in the matter
that is the Silk Association OF
America and the Wool Manufac-
turer's Association of America.
These and the California Wine Max
ers, three interests, will have to bear
the brunt of the fight, at least un :
til the attention of those industrie 9
whose interests are less direct ly
threatened can be aroused. The
worst feature in the matter is per-
haps the apathy of the California
vInyard men themselves. There
are some 1000, perhaps 5000, men
In this State whose fortunes are
bound up in California wines, and
they leave the matter in the care
Of a dozen or twenty leading men
In the business, as If IL
was no concern of theirs.
They will awake some day
to their danger, but the scare
may come too late to be useful.
The importers have always welded
8 powerful influence on Congress,
and New York can count on more
votes than California, New Jersey
and the wool manufacturing dis
tricts can make up, all told. Be-
hind all this there is barrel OF

Savage Murder at San Diego.
lUnion, 14th.l

tSAtoht A1tasl
About half-past ten o'clock last
night the people living in the vicin-
ity of Ninth and X streets were
startled by cries and noises of a
fight going on, apparently between
Indians, from the Spanish words
used. A few minutes later a man
came running up street with the
intelligence that an Indian had
been murdered. Sheriff Coyne,
Constable Cook and other officers
proceeded to the neighborhood and
found, in the brush between X
street and the "Stingaree," the
body of an Indian named "Chica-
no.n literally cut to pieces. A ter
rible cash laid open the whole right
side Of the head from the eye to
the chin, while the body was
laid open in twenty places with
stabs, one of which, under the left
arm, split the chest wide open. An
examination of the ground showed
signs of a desperate struggle near
Caravia's store, on the corner of
Ninth and X streets, the dust
marks giving tokens of the pres
ence of several men. A short dis
tance off there were signs of an
other scuffle, and still further on of
y third. Then there was the track
of the body of the murdered man,
as it had been dragged out of the
road to the open ground toward the
bay. Blood was found at all the
places where the signs of the strug-
gle were observed. The body of
the murdered man was taken to the
dead-house of Young q Gray.
There is, at this writing, no infor-
nation as to the cause of the MUIR
der, nor clue to the perpetrators.
