PROCLAMATION.
STATE OF CALIFORNIA

EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT.
The nation is in great sorrow; for weeks it
has watched by the bedside Of its dying Chief
Magistrate with an unanimity and tender
ness unexampled in the history of the world.
But its sympathies, devotion and prayers
have been unayailing. 1t has pleased Al
mighty God to remove James a. Garfield,
the President of the nation, a great and good
man. Oae of the noblest representatives of
republican institutions has fallen.
But in republic the nation survives when
great men fail-the Government continues
when the President dies. Our dependence is
not on any one person, however great or
good, but on the intelligence, virtue, and
patriotism of the people and the blessings OF
God.
l. therefore. George G. Perkins, Governor
of the State of California recognizing the
common sentiment of dependence on the Su.
preme Ruler of the universe which has char
acterized the country during all this long ag-
ony of watching and waiting, do hereby ap.
point the day that shall be designated for the
obsequies to be day of humiliation and
prayer; and l recommend all citizens of the
State to suspend their usual business on that
day, and assemble in their respective places
of worship, that they may humble themselves
before Almighty God, and supplicats His
blessings upon the nation, that this visitation
may not be the beginning of a series of ma
tional calamities; that it may be overruled
for good to the country /; that in this hour
OF our great sorrow we may not forget the
anguish of the bsreayed wife. stricken chill.
dren and aged mother; that the new Presi.
dent and all the associate officers may be pre-
pared te meet the exigencies of the changed
conditions; and that the whole people, by a
fresh conservation of themselves to the hands
Of righteousness and patriotism, may so live
that the nation viii have honor. God reigns,
and with His blessing true republic can
never die.
In testimony whereof 1 have hereunto set
my hand and caused the great seal Of the
Cal. this 20th day of September, A. D. 1881,

weeks by sheer science almost. and his
medical attendants triumphed successfully
over one complication after another until
it really seemed possible that they would
restore him to health. In all such cases,
when the actual outcome disappoints pub
lie expectation, there is a disposition to
find fault with the doctors. Any such
course would in the present instance be
most unjust, and even cruel, and it is to be
hoped that the public generally viii reccg-
nize the plain facts that the surgeons have
done their whole duty from the beginning
to the end, and that in all probability it
would have been impossible to improve
their line of treatment.

PROVISION FOR TIE PRESIDENTS
FAMILY.


The death of President Garfield will Of
course bring forward once more the pro-
posal to provide generously for his family.
This is duty which devoIves upon the
whole country. however, and which ought
not to be left to private munifeence. The
republic has been open to some reproach in
this connection. 1t has never made any
provision for its ex-Presidents, or for
those slain in it's service. It ought to do
this. 1t cannot afford to be put to shame
by governments over which it affects
superiority. The family of President
Garfield ought to be put altogether beyond
the reach of want, and this ought to be
done by Congress, or, if necessary, by an
amendment to the Constitution. But it
is rightly the work of the nation, and the
nation should not be slow to recognize its
obligations in the premises.

THE DISPOSAL OF TaE ASSASSIN.

a great nation cannot demean itself by
setting aside its own laws, even to punish
SO atrocious a crime as that which Guiteau
has committed. 1t is bound by the very
principles of its existence to give to the
world in this supreme hour an example Of
passionless justice. The assassin must be
tried with all the forms of law. He must
be accorded the privileges which are ex.
tended to all accused persons. And though
it may be true that his wretched life
would be forfeit million times over if the
people were to express their resent
ment toward him without restraint,
it must be remembered that the sacrifice
OF this worthless villain can avail
nothing, for that the evil is done
and is beyond remedy. Nevertheless the
country demands that justice shall be
executed upon him. His case is not one in
which the audacious subterfuges which
have SO often saved murderers from the
gallows viii avail. It is not too much to
say that failure to convict him of murder
in the first degree would almost certainly
be followed by a deplorable resort to
illegitimate methods of vengeance. There
is of course no possible defense for him
which ca- justify hisacquittal. He deserves
to be hanged, and he must be hanged !;
and if he is not sentenced to death
legally and promptly it will be i'm
possible to maintain any public sen.
timent against lynching him. 1t is not
question of satisfaction for the crime he
has committed. OF that there can be no
question. The sacrifice of all his genera
tion would not compensate for the loss Of
President Garfield. But he has committed
amurder a which is very much worse than
an ordinary murder, though the law knows
no distinction of the kind, and it is neces,
sary that he should be destroyed as one de-
stroys venomous reptile. The law Off
GERS viii, il they are wise, hasten on
his trial. There should be q marked ex-
hibition of promptitude in such case
1t will of course be impossible to
find the kind of jury so diligently sought
by counsel for the defense in ordi-
nary murder cases, for public opinion
will not permit the impaneling of dozen
idiots, aud no twelve men of any other
kind can be found who have not expressed
an opinion on the case. Such difficulties,
however, must be set aside. The man must
be tried, and the fact that the verdict will
be foregone conclusion will detract in no
way from the significance of the proceed
ings. Were it'possibls under the circum.
stances drumhead Court. martial would
be the most satisfactory way of disposing
Of the scoundrel, but since the Courts have
cognizance of the case it only remains to
insist that they permit no delays in the
judicial determination of this most mis-
chievons yet insignifcant vermin.

SUPERIORITY OF TaE -wsEKLY UNIc

The superiority of the WEEKLY UsroN
over its contemporaries found fresh illus
tration in the publication of recent events.
The attempted assassination of President
Garfield occurred on Saturday-one and
two days after the usual dates of publica-
tion of the other leading weeklies. The

The WEEKLY UNION divides the week into
periods of three and four days, and being
issued at these intervals it cannot fail to

As it seems probable that the assassin
Guiteau viii set up the plea of insanity
when brought to trial, it is of considerable
interest to know what his victim thought
of that plea, and fortunately the evidence
is at hand. Ia the year 1871, man
named Gelentine was tried at Cleveland,
Ohio, on charge Of murder, and the plea
of emotional insanity was as usual en-
ployed in his defense. Judge r. F. Payne
presided at the trial, and in his charge to
the jury dealt very severely with this
form of defense. The Judges charge
struck q popular chord, and elected num-
bars of approving comments and letters.
Among them was the following:

debt OF gratitude for brushing away tie wicked
absurdity which has lately been palmed off on the
country as law on the subject Of insanity. II this
thing had gone on much further all that man
