FARMERS MEETINGS.

A Sonoma county paper believes that
the agriculturists of that section are on
the eve of great changes which will result,
in the next decade, in an increase, at the
lowest estimate, of at least 100 per cent.
in the value Of the products of the farm.
At meeting of agriculturists reported in
the Russian River Flag one speaker is
credited with the statement that the diff
ference between the farmers of the East
and those of California is found in the
fact that the Eastern farmers buy only
what they cannot raise, while California
farmers raise only what they cannot
buy. These two quotations are texts with
food for thought. The prophesied ad-
vance can be based only on the belief that
better knowledge of the true methods of
farming in California is being dissemina.
ted, and that it is being availed of to the
better direction of personal exertion, and
breaking down of the heretofore too gen.
eral reliance upon nature. Our wonderful
climate and the marvellous richness of our
soil will not alone do the farming. That
farmers are meeting and discussing these
matters, as the report indicates, gives hope
that they are awaking more generally to

SILENT INCENDIARIEs.

During the recent harvest season there
have occurred many disastrous fires in the
fields. In most cases they have been laid
at the doors of amateur hunters and camp
ing tourists. Undoubtedly these classes
are frequently very careless in their use of
fire when travelling through agricultural
sections, and still more so when in wooded
regions, and are responsible for many of
our most destructive forest fires. But sci.
ence comes to their partial defense, with
the very rational statement that to neither
hunters nor campers should be charged all
forest and field conhagrations, nor to
spontaneous combustion all the outdoor
and apparently unaccountable fires in thick
ly settled sections. 1t is shown that "bot-
" ties, bottoms of drinking glasses, bits of
thick glass of lens form, etc., which are
cast carelessly about fields, in back lots,
"and often in woods, act as burning
glasses, concentrate the rays Of the sun
and kindle confiagrations. 1t behooves
farmers as well as city authorities to keep
a sharp outlook for these silent and ire
sponsible incendiaries.

EDGED FROM THE HALL.

We cannot declare the origin of the Gus
tom nor perpetuate the immortal memory
of its originator by naming the
author of the idea, but certain it
is that decayed eggs have been
selected as the highest type and symbol
of popular disgust, displeasure, and con.
tempt. AS floral offerings are showered
upon favorites as the supreme demonstra-
ton of approval, so like showering of
stale eggs is the ne plus ultra of repellent
scorn. Popularity is tickle mistress,
and the descent from the sweet aroma of
flowers showered by gentle hands to the I'M
savory stencil of overripe eggs used as
missiles is not great. All itoo frequently
the bestowal of the former is an ominous
prophesy OF the latter. Only a short
while ago Kearney was conquering hero.
He was Major. General Dennis leader of
the turbulent and violent elements; a

word and the queen of the Pacific stands

in ascertaining the special needs of agri-
culture in that portion of the United
States lying west of the Tooth meridian. 4"
This was not large amount, but it was
beginning, affording encouragement that
something would be done in the direction
OF collecting data concerning the special
needs of agriculture on this coast. MANY
suggestions have been made as to how this
So, 600 could be most effectively employed.
1t was proposed by some that the State
Board of Agriculture should direct the
expenditure. Others suggested that the
Professor of Agriculture OF the State
University have superintendent of the
expenditure. 1t appears. however. that
the Commissioner of Agriculture at Wash
ington has chosen to expend the amount
in paying the travelling expenses and CIV
ing salary to two Eastern gentlemen who
are commissioned to visit the region and
make inquiry into class of facts already
well known to our own people. The
primary object of the appropriation was
to set ON foot systematic collection of
data instructive to the people west of the
Rocky Mountains. Instead OF this the
Commissioners are instructed to make
themselves acquainted with the exist.
| ing methods of agriculture, horticulture
and the fertilization of land, etc.
OF what particular use the Eastern gentle.
men will be to Professor Hilgard in this
inquiry we do not clearly perceive. The
! $1,000 appropriated will be expended in
informing two gentlemen from the East as
to the existing methods of agriculture, but
whether after they receive this education
they will be able to suggest better methods
than are now employed is very questiona-
bic. 1t is to be regretted that the entire
amount Of the appropriation was not given
to Professor Hilgard to be expended in his
discretion. As it is the sum is too small
to pay the expenses of the Commissioners
and leave any considerable margin to be
devoted to the real object of the appropria-
ton. The Commissioner of Agriculture
has evidently misconstrued the object of
the appropriation altogether, and by this
device foz consuming it all in paying the
expenses of three Commissioners has con-
trived to defeat its object and fritter it
away uselessly.

THE Kissing AT BERKELEY.

We have been permitted to see letter
written by student at the University to
his father, in this city. This student says :
" Probably yOu read an editorial in the
" REcoRD-U UNION about the kissing. am
glad to say that it was not u C. students
" that did it, BUTT was High School boys
&c from San Francisco, who said they came
20 over to give old Reid send off. >
Here at last we have specific assertion
as to the responsibility for the kissing, and
it now devolves upon the San Francisco
High School boys to make their explana.
ton. If indeed they were guilty of the
shameful conduct referred to, yet allowed
the whole blame to be placed ON the Uni.
versity students, their behavior in the
affair is most disgraceful, and it would
seem that they are not only blackguards
but sneaks. We trust that the bottom
facts in this case will soon be reached.

REPoRToRIAL DETECTIVES.

Some astonishment is manifested that
two shrewd reporters on st. Louis news
paper recently brought to light and justice
the perpetrators OF foul murder in that
city, while the detectives were cropping in
the dark. Really there should be no sur
prise at this. There are no men, where
they have an honest pride in their profess
sion, who are better qualified for detective
work than news gatherers more than
that, they are constantly engaged in it,
and as a rule use the knowledge they ac-
quire in that line more wisely, by far, than
the average official detective, who is too
apt to run in groove, and whose views
of men and things are too apt to be dis
torted by reason of his single and official
point of view. The truth is, the press of
the country is the best and most untiring
detective force the country has.

TEE SALARY OF THE STATE PRISON
DIRECTORS.

1t appears to us that there is no room
for reasonable doubt as to the unconstitu-
tionality of the law which gives to the
State Board of Prison Commissioners a
salary of 500 per month, in addition to
their travelling expenses. During the
pending investigation of the State Prisons
some of the Directors have manifested a
curious dislike to have legal opinions on
this point elected by the Commissioners,
but reference to the Constitution ought
to enable anyone to form just conclusion
in the case. In Section 4, Article X. of
that instrument, it is provided that 1.-The
members of the Board shall receive no
compensation other than reasonable trav-
"eling and other expenses incurred while
engaged in the performance of official
duties, to be audited as the Legislature
"may direct" 1t is impossible to con.
strue this section so as to derive from it

THE ABOLITION OF PBTTIcoAFs.

1t would appear that the doctrines of
woman's emancipation from the trammels
of feminine dress, promulgated some time
ago with considerable vigor by strong
minded ladies in the United States, have
recently been enthusiastically adopted by
an ASSOCIATION of German matrons and
maidens, which, under the significant title
of " Clothing League for the Abolition of
Pettlccats, recently held its first public
meeting IN concert-room of the Brunnen
strasse, Berlin. a Chairwoman having
been duly elected, the proceedings were
opened by an eloquent speech setting forth
the inconvenience and disadvantages,
from sanitary point of view, of
the flowing garments hitherto deemed
appropriate wear for civilized females,
This discourse pronounced it to be
the sacred duty of every member of the
Association to discard, with the utmost
promptitude, such Objectionable raiment,
typical of all the disabilities wrongfully
ascrised to woman by her oppressor, man,
and to assume in its stead "a dualistic
form OF covering for the legs as well as for
the arms" This daring programme of
action was hailed with acclamations of ap-
proval by all present save one, a Fran
Peters, who courageously stood up for the
denounced petticoat upon the ground that
1t was far more becoming than trousers to
members of the female sex. Her protest.
ing voice, however, was drowned in storm
OF indignant clamor, and a resolution en-
bodylng the sentiments previously enunci.
ated by the Chairwoman was passed by an
overwhelming majority of the fair leaguers.

THE FRENCH IN AFRICA,

The French campaign in Africa has thus
far resulted in a very large expenditure,
with comparatively small returns. The
Government is said to have spent GA, 0O0,-
600 francs, and apparently this is only a
beginning, for the Arabs are as unruly as
ever, and owing to their peculiar and I'M
scientific methods of fighting it is exceed
ingly difficult to get them into a position
where they can be finally defeated. There
is very little glory in the work, but of
course it will have to be finished now, no
matter what it costs. Bismarck no doubt
views the increasing complications with
feelings of placid satisfaction.

A GOOD OBJECT PERVERTED.

The telegraph yesterday informed us
that one r. W. Furnace, an Ex-Governor
of Nebraska, and an Hon. T. C. Jones, of
Delaware, left Omaha on the 3lst of Au.
gust for San Francisco, where they are to
meet Professor Hilgard, of the State Uni.
versity of California. The three gentle.
men named have been appointed Com.
mission to obtain data touching the special
needs of agriculture in the arid regions of
the United States. The mission of these
gentlemen will be better understood by
recalling the prior facts which
gave rise to the appointment of
this Commission. In his inaugural
message Governor George c. Perkins called
attention to the great need of general in
formation touching the special needs of
agriculture on this coast. He reminded
the Legislature of the fact that in the re-
ports issued from the National Bureau of
Agriculture at Washington the interests of
the Pacific coast were not adequately repre-
sented. He suggested that efforts looking
to the establishment Of branch of the
National Bureau of Agriculture in San
Francisco be made. The President of the
State Agricultural Society, in his, annual
address, dwelt upon the same theme,
strongly commencing the suggestions of
the Governor. Hon. Horace Davis,
Member of Congress from the First
District in this State, adopting the
suggestion which had met with so
much favor on this coast, secured an ap-
preparation of $1,000, "to be expended

leading citizen one OF them said, You
lowe your life to Kearney. He could
have you hung and your house
burned before morning" The answer
was, 81 had supposed that my life,
"my liberty and my property were pro-

"come to this, that l hold my life and my

&C. the sufference of this foreigner, what has
C become of American liberty" In those
days such remark was little less than
high treason to the empire OF misrule
Kearney and his blatant followers had
established. It was all the more treason
able because it raised a suspicion of some
patriotic pride in native Americanism-for
the only people to whom the pride OF birth
place is denied are Americans. But on
Friday night last, in San Francisco,
Kearney's garlands of flowers and wreaths
of laurel turned to fermented eggs-the
aroma of immortelles had changed to the
fetid smell which attends the decaying
promise of an embryonic chicken = and

field of disaster with much more real &C.
casion for the immersion of his nose in a

dramatic reports of our Bay contemporaries
do not deal in word portraiture. But the
transaction was not the less an outrage on
free speech because its victim was the de-
throned Kearney. To egg even Kearney
from hall is to commit an outrage upon
one of the most cherished rights of the
American people. 1t exhibits a spirit OF
intolerance so ignorant and low, an intel
lectual impotency so degraded, brutal
bullyism SO beastly, as to make one heart.
lily ashamed of fellow citizenship with its
perpetrators. 1t is true that kearney was
never an apostate of free speech, and that
the very men who last Thursday evening
drove him from the hall took a leaf from
the lessons taught them by this last victim
of their coarseness. But it is just as
despicable now as it was under the misrule
of Kearney, and. whoever INDUCES his in.
