SAN FRANCISCO, CAL, Feb. /. 1t be-
gan raining in the central and northern
part of the State again to-day. The
foods in the rivers are abating very
slowly. At Shasta up to this afternoon
there has fallen this season the enormous
quantity of 81 4O-l0O inches of rain
and the damage in that section of the
State cannot be Appropriated. In Kill
marth. Del Norte, Trinity and Siskyon
counties heavy rain fell. All streams
in those counties are over their banks,
flooding the valleys, destroying farms,
carrying away every bridge across them
and meny saw-mills and houses. Much
grain and stock is lost. The property
destroyed is estimated up into the mil
lions. In Colusa county half million
could not pay for the property destroyed.
The late storm wrs by far the most ex-
tensive and destructive ever known on
the coast since the whites settled here.
A large part of the country flooded is
wheat ground, and unless the water runs
off quickly there will be a much smaller
crop in California the coming season
than has heretofore been counted on.

After every election the Democratic
party gather themselves together-so
far as they can-and ask each other
mournfully why it is that the country
refuses to trust them with the Govern
ment. One little incident in Friday s
proceedings of the House of Representa-
tives may instruct them little in the
reason of the general distrust of Demo-
Cratic craftsmanship. Mr.. Goode want
ed the House to pass a claim of less
than 5000. which the Republicans re-
sisted ON the ground of ,disloyalty in the
original claimant. Whereupon Mr..
Goode grew angry, and said that if they
were ready to repudiate an honest debt
'.let them take the responsibility, and
look out for other debts owing by the
Government. The fair inference was
that Mr.. Goode and his associates were
ready, in revenge, to repudiate other
debts. and perhaps the largest debt of
all, simply to spite the Republican par
ty. The gentleman who uttered this
foolish and wicked threat compares ia
vorably with a large number of his
Democratic colleagues in the House.
1t is hardly strange that party made
up of men like this finds it difficult to
gain control of great Government
Tribune.

Commissioner of Pensions Bentley
gives some startling information about
the frauds which are being committed
on the Government under the arrears of
pensions act. He estimates that, un-
less some restrictive legislation is adopt
ed, that measure will take $500, 000,-
900 out of the United States Treasury.
Ii the money went to the thousands of
disabled soldiers and bereaved widows
and orphans who need it, and are en-
titled to it. it would be we'll spent; but
it is matter of evidence, that vast
amount goes into the pockets of fraudu-
lent claimants and dishonest agents.
Mr.. Bentley says that, as the pension
office is now organized. there is nothing
to prevent rogues from making up pa
pers for claims having all the appear
ance of being genuine, and the Office is
obliged to judge by appearance. Again
and again heartless impositions prac
tised on honest and needy claimants
have been exposed. The devices en-
ployed by agents to cheat worthy pen
sioners and to impose false claims on the
Government, Mr.. Bentley continues
have been as ingenious, varied and nu
merous as the resources of many crafty
shrewd lawyers could contrive.-Fre

The case of E. N. Connal VS.. Lucius

of a purchase Of Peter Connal, the orig.
inal owner, and claimed that the notes
came into the hands of Lucius Robinson
as assignee of said Peter Connars bank.
