DIR. Kalloch, mayor-elect of San Fran.
cisco, has called upon the commissioners
of police to revoke a special license
whereby Charles De Young, who re-
Gently attacked him, is permitted to car
ry arms. He asserts that Mr.. De Young
had threatened to renew the assault.
He says: Il am not afraid of Charles
De Young, nor of any other man, and if
this community is to be RENTED to
semibarbarism, and governed by force,
l can take my part. But l am a peace
able American citizen, residing in a
large city which is supposed to be pro-
tected by its police and by the courts. l
am about to occupy a high municipal
position, in which my life should ex-
emplify the highest conceptions of civil
lied society, and prefer, therefore, not
to be compelled to carry arms for my de-
Tense" The ordinance under which the
license was granted reads: The police
commissioners may grant written per-
mission TO any peaceable person, whose
profession or occupation may require
him to be out at late hours of the night,
to carry concealed deadly weapons for
his own protection" DR.. Kalloch at
firms than if Dennis Kearney is refused
permission to carry a pistol, Mr.. De
Young should be compelled to go un-
armed also

BETTER THAN GOLD MINES.

A writer in the Chicago Tribune,
dating in San Francisco, gives the fol.
lowing as two of the many telling items
of agricultural wealth in California:
"Out of the 100000 acres of wheat
lands in California, and 100000 in
Oregon, barely one-seventh has thus far
been put under cultivation; and these
two states, with a united capacity for
supplying the world with fully 10000
600 bushels of wheat, haze never furnish
ed more than 25,0OO,00O Considering
that, besides Europe, we have China and
Central America as customers for our
flour, there is good reason for the belief
that the supply will not be in excess of
the demand. So, too, as regards our al
monds. On recent visit to the San
Clara Valley Agricultural fair, at San
Jose, was struck by the exhibition of
almonds from the orchard of the Gardner
estate. This orchard contains over 100
acres ofalmond trees, most of them in full
bearing; and it is understood that al
monds can be raised, gathered, huIIed
and sulphured for from three to five
cents per pound. Calculating two cents
per ponnd freight to Chicago, these al
monds could be laid down in your city
somewhere in the neighborhood of seven
cents per pound. The Spanish imported
almonds command 201s to 81 cents per
pound.

THE FALL OF PRIDE.-Says the observ-
ing Burdette: You will occasionally
meet young man who gets on the train
somewhere in Ohio, and when some fel-
low passenger asks him how far he is
going he says 'Omahar in the tone of a
brakeman calling a station, and when
he looks up and down the car to observe
the amazement and awe of the other
passengers, you will notice he looks a
little bit disappointed because they do
not take off their hats and ask where he
comes from and alt about him. But by
and by, when he learns from casual re-
marks dropped carelessly now and then
that the man behind him is going to San
Francisco, and the one in front of him is
going to Japan, and the old fellow on
the other side of the aisle is just return
ing from st. Petersburg, the young man
drops his voice to a husky whisper,
shrinks down into his duster so that no
one can see him, and tells the next man
who asks him about it he is only going
out here little way"

The above tabulated statement shows
seven years of progress in Kansas in
wheat growing. The increase in a sin
gate acreage of the two crops, was $780,
$40 acres. The mere assertion of an
eastern man in the Atlantic Monthly
will not carry with it much weight when
controverted by such facts as herewith
given. But we have not done with this
writer yet. The same increase is noted

AN advertisement is now in order, under
the head of " information wanted" to ascer-
tain the political and partisan whereabouts of
George G. Gorham. Possibly the Railroad
Company would contribute to pay the cost of
advertising -Ecomi,cer.
1t is very probable that the Examiner will
find ont one of these days where Gorham is.
Gorham's course in the late campaign can be
best explained by himself but the Examiner,
or hundred other ours who are barking at
his heels, may get too close, and George is a
hard kicker. We cannot endorse his course,
but he has at least the right to be heard and
he is able to defend himself If he had only
gravitated into the arms of the straight out
Democracy, the Examiner would be just now
sailing on another tack.

REFORM CLUB-sOME SUGGESTIONS.
COMMUNICATED


EDITOR APPEAL: l ask the privilege OF
making few suggestions to the members OF
the Carson Reform Club through your paper,
which has on many occasions rendered willing
and good service to the temperance move
ment. As in all political campaigns it il
customary to hoist the names of our oandi.
dates for Office in time for the people to select
the right man in the right place, I present
the name of Mr. Fl. H. Howe, the Principal
Of our high school, As next president OF
the Reform Club Mr.. Howe would make
an excellent officer. He has had experience
in this line, il jealous in the cause, and
would discharge the duties of the position
with promptnsss and impartiality. l sug-
gest Mr.. Howe's name without his knowledge,
being in doubt, in fact, as to whether he
would accept the position or not.
l think it would be good policy to give up
the present entertainment room of the club,
on Musser street, and sub-let it, if possible,
retaining the reading and billiard room.
Experience has taught US that our entertain
ments at Moores theatre have been better
attended than those given at the club room;
that spectators prefer the former to the latter,
and that participants in the exercises find
it easier to sing, read, or recite in the
theatre than in the club room. 1t is not
overestimating the liberality of those regu-
larly attending our Saturday night entertain
ments-I refer to those who are not members of
the Reform Cub-to say that they will assist
us in paying the weekly rent of the theatre.
l would like to see action taken in this mat
ter at the next meeting Of the club.
The Winter evenings will soon be with US,
and it will be pleasant, as we'll as profitable,
to give at least one entertainment week,
consisting as now, of lectures, the reading OF
essays, music, Rotations! letc. Or we
might organize dramatic club from our
ranks, having good material for such, and
occasionally give dramatic entertainment.
Before closing this article I take the occa-
sion to express what l believe to be the
unanimous opinion of the club, that General
T. D. Edwards has made a faithful, Jealous
and an efficient officer.
The election for officers of the Reform
Club. will take place on Monday evening
next, and let me urge, in conclusion, that
all members turn out in full strength and
select competent officers

arrival in San Francisco has kalloch de-
nounced the Irish and Roman Catholics in
terms SO coarse and abusive, that in compari-
son, the language he directed at the De
Youngs appeared almost complimentary. And
yet is safe to assert that at least one half of
the votes which he received last Wednesday
were east by Irish Catholics. We were going
to remark that this seems funny; but come to
think of it again, it don't Seem funny at all
On the contrary the fact is rather sickening

PowNING ioY'eitor: Somebody at Wash

clerks in the various Departments of the Gov
eminent are to be paid their wages one tenth
in silver dollars. This is sad. The poor
clerks of the various Departments who work
six long weary hours of the twenty-four and
receive barely 81 200 per year, are to be pit
led And then think of their being enforced
to receive part of their wages-one- tenth
in silver, which is the legal coin of the Nation.
This is horrible, outrageous, despotic. Is it
not time to knock this Republic into smith

ington, knows that lodging houses, saloons

to those hard worked clerks not only for one
tenth but nine tenths of their pay and take it
all in silver.

THE RESULT.
WASHINGTON, September 6

WASHINGTOf, Soptehoor U.
Martin. of the House Labor Committee,
arrived to-day. At San Francisco the prin-
sipal topic of conversation was As to the effect
Of Chinese immigration. Farmers, trades
men, merchants, mesnanics, peddlers, miners
all agree that they could not hold their own
>ciDst the Cinnamon, and without intending
anything of the sort, they bore the strongest
testimony in favor of the skill, business Ca
pacity, patience, and endurance of these
moon eyed lepers In fact it is the good
Qualities of the Chinese that the most fault is
found with. Whether these good qualities
are 30 undesirable that immigrants possessing
them ought to be excluded from the country,
il q great question for Congress and the Gov
ernment but there is certainly little doubt
that the feeling against the Cinnamon among
the working class in California Is very bitter
and very strong.
And it cost the country some eight or ten
thousand dollars to develop this; fact which
any unprejudiced man in California would
have established. However, II. B. Wright
has not been heard from yet. II. B. does not
mean Honorable Blk, but comes very near it.

will be for nothing: "The trial of Charles
Hymer for the murder of T. K. West in this
place last May is set for Monday, September
9Th in the District Court, and number Of the
citizens of the valley have been summoned to
Winnemucca as witnesses. This trial will
probably occupy the Court for ten days or two
weeks; cost Humboldt county thousands of
dollars, besides imposing heavy tax on a
number of poor men who have to bear their
own expenses to Winnemmucca as witnesses.
The whole thing could have been settled ON
the night of the murder, with four bits worth
of hemp, energetically applied, and we think
it would have had salutary effect on the NOR
ais of the place thereafter"
