In constituting this provision OF the Con.

II the trainers OF tho Constitution had
intended by the use Of the words: "No
lottery shall DO authorized by this State"
to only limit the legislative power to pub.
lilo lotteries, conducted and managed solely
by the State for the purpose Of raising
revenue, they would not have used the
language they did In the concluding sen.
tence. "Nor shall tho sale Of lottery tick
cts DO allowed" These words clearly
show that IL was not intended that any
lottery should be authorized BY this State
for any purpose.
The words "by this State" Is used In
our Constitution. and tho words In this
State" "or within this State."a a. used
In the Constitutions Of New York, have
virtually tho same meaning.
"No lottery shall DO authorized by this
State. nor shall the sale Of lottery tickets
be allowed"
This language applies to all lotteries,
whether public or private. To lotteries
conducted by the State |; by the church ;
by private individuals by benevolent and
charitable associations, and by corpora

Constitution.
We again repeat what, II seems to rs,

constitutional provision 10 too plain for
argument. That under Il the Legislature
cannot authorize any lottery In this State
and that the Act approved March D. 1851

John II. Savage has been regarded as
the principal leader in the movement
to relieve the people from paying the
enormous debt Of the railroads, yet
when simply office is to be conferred,
while holding fast the principles for
which he has contended in the past, he
steps out of the way of others, and
refuses to he candidate for the SEN
ate. No high tax man, republican or
democrat, showed the disinterested-
ness in regard to personal preferment
as Savage, these monopolizers appear
to think all the offices belong to them
Of right, ard that no man identified
with the common people should hold
Office. We hold that low tax men are
as patriotic as others, have no greater
thirst for Office than others and are as
ready as others to sacrifice themselves
for the public good.

SAN FRANCISCO, January 31.-A
dispatch from Santa Cruz says eight
Cinnamon, who were employed cut
ting timber for mill company on the
South Pacific Coast railroad, near
Dougherty's mill, fourteen miles from
Santa Cruz, were buried alive yester-
day by a half mile OF mountain
sliding down on them. There were 19
employed, and hut 10 escaped.
Another dispatch from Santa Cruz
says Camp Capitola, located on Sequel
creek, four miles from Santa Cruz, has
been washed out to the sea, only four
houses being left :of the town. No
lives lost.
The Orrville railaoad is submerged
for long distance. The damage can
not be ascertained until the water
goes down. At Windsor, Sonoma
county, 13 inches of rain fell in 70
hours. Much damage is sustained by
the people in that vicinity. In Plac
caville, EldOrado county, in the "a
hours ending at noon to-day, 0.7t
inches of rain fell. From other places
in the northern part of the state come
almost incredible accounts of the
amount of rainfall during the storm.

We learn, with some surprise, that
we were in error last week in referring
to Hon. Howell Il. jackson as one
who was opposed to making coupons
receivable for taxes. The statement
had come to us so often, and generally
from low tax sources, that we felt
quite assured Of its correctness.
Others must shave beeh in the same
error. 1t is now stated by Mr.. Jack
sons friends that he is in favor Of
making coupons receivable for taxes.
1t this was understood in the general
assembly it more plainly shows the
magnanimity and the true democracy
of the low tax men in voting as they
did when the party was in great peril,
We would like to know now whose
democracy shows to the best advan-
tage.

TIlc Yagnries or dsns RlIIs,

The New York Times, in discussing
the matter of the fearful and wonder
full manner in which gas bills are
made out, tells the following story as
having occurred in that city A gen.
tleman gave in December last recep-
tion, and lit every burner in the
house-45 in number-at $50 clock
in the afternoon, and kept them in
full blaze for eight hours, which made
800 hours of consumption OF gas.
Having several guests, the drawing
room chandeliers and brackets,
some fifteen in number, were on three
other occasions kept burning five
hours, which made 225 hours more Of
gas consumption. These guests burn
ed gas in their bedrooms during O.
stay of ten days, certainly fifty hours
more. At the very lowest counting OF
the gas consumed, this would make
535 hours of extraordinary consump-
ton of gas. Now, the normal use of
gas in this house was as fol-
lows: In the hall there was l gas
burner, in the drawingroom 4, in the
library /, in the bed chambers 2, in
the bathroom l, in the kitchen l.,
making in all 10 burners, on which the
gas was turned on for hours nightly,
making, during a month of 30 days,
1900 hours Of regular gas consumption.
Now, quite naturally, this gentleman
expected that his bill for gaswould be
augmented in the proportion of 2135
hours to 1900 hours. To his great
surprise, the amount claimed by the
gas company for the month Of Decem-
Der, 1880, was 30 cents less than for
December, 1873,

THE meeting tonight at the Green
law operahouse should be well at
tended aud representative in its char
acter. The time has come for those
interested in the existence and welfare
of Memphis to speak out. A bill is
pending in the legislature providing
that those who choose to avail them
selves of its provisions may fund their
claims at % cents on the dollar, and
that the assets Of the old city of Mem
phis including back taxes, shall 60 to
the creditors. This, it is believed
will give them about so cents on the
dollar, certainly asPmuch as Memphi:
in her unfortunate, impoverished con
dition is likely to be able to pay with
out being permanently crippled. AL
the property of Memphis would moi
sell for the sum total of its assessed
value to-day. OF course there is
some personal property that cannot be
reached, such, for instance, as the
city bonds held by our own citizens
and not exposed to the view of the
assessor, but there is no help for this
We have to look at things as they are
and not IS they mightbe. The people
of Memphis generally are willing tt
pay what is equitable and right
whether required to do so by th'
courts or not. Such an expression
will doubtless be had tonight.
