HoODLUMIsM.
From the Sacramento Record Union.
The boy is treated very much as a nui-
sance TO be abated. No provision for play
grounds is made in his behalf. He is
driven from the streets with his games.
There is no back country for him to retire
upon. What is he to do? Tit too fire.
quent answer to this question appears in
the increase of hoodlumism. The matter
deserves anxious thought, and we commend
it to whom it may concern.
WHO Is RESPONSIBLE?
From the Stock Report.
The general complaint is Of hard times.
Who is responsible for this state OF affairs?
1t is the ~demagogues who have melted the
unthinking masses to bite off their "
noses to spite their faces. Why is it that
capital has left San Francisco? 1t has
been driven out because war has been de-
clared against it. Why is it that capital
that ought to be employed in enterprises
is lying idle? Same answer as above.
Were it not for this onslaught that has
been made On capital there would be
twenty men at work in San Francisco where
one is now employed.
A FALLACY.
From the Virginia Chronicle.
II the Bodie railroad cannot be profitably
built without Chinese labor, then it is too
soon to build it. But the assertion that
white labor is too expensive for the pros
pective income is a miserably f~allaey. The
difference could not well exceed SIS, 900,
and that would probably be repaid to the
company in a few years by the opening up
of the country through which its branch
road is to run by the mining and agricul-
tural labor of the white men whom it
would employ in building the road.
CALIFORNIA; CONDITION.
From the Stock Report.
1t seems to b. the fate of California to be
misrepresented abroad, and such misrep-
reservations will continue so long as East
ern journalists consent to publish the let
ters of every Tom, Dick and Harry who
comes out here in search of q third-rate
bookkeeper's position, and damns the
whole country because somebody did not
meet him at the wharf and tender him a
acknowledgements position.
sHIP THEM BOTH.
From the Sacramento Bee.
They ak of the Chinese running San
Francisco, when, in fact, they never injured

gamblers-and if the Chinese must go let
mining stock gamblers go with them. At
least the Chinese worked for all they re-
ceived, but these gamblers got ten times as
much aud did no useful thing.
THE QUESTION.
From the San Francisco Post.
An expertorial emigrant, h sought to
take New York by storm, with a certain
mine, writes as follows to a friend "Aftei
weeks of unremitting labor, l have sue
ceeded in placing my property in my
trunk-and the question that now bothers
me is how to get home
A LABOR OF LOVE.
From the Idaho Avalanche
The friends of ex-Delegate Jacobs arr
pressing him for the G~overnorship o.
Washington Territory. They might al
well save their labor. There are too many
political paupers scattered all over the
East to be provided for by Hayes.
THE YET.
From the Baltimore Gazette.
The unkindest cut that Mr.. Hayes ha
vet received is a biting declaration from
the New York Times that had bis civil ser
vice order been enforced Secretary Sher
man would not now be able to pack South
ern delegations in his W favor.
srRAws DON'T COUNT.
From the california.
A majority Of the 'straws' favor Blain
for President. 1t doesn't follow that h
will be nominated. In 1876, three month
before the National Convention, two-third
of III Republicans favored Blaine. an
hardly any one outside Of Ohio had hear'
Of Hsyes.
