fthe sad old world should jump a cog
Sometime in Its dizzy spinning.
And go OF the track with a sudden jog.
What an end would come to the sinningi
What n rest nom strife and the burdens ollie
For the millions ofpeople in III
What a way out of care, and worry. and wear.
Ahin a beautiful minute,
As round the sun, with a curving sweep,

Should It lose its balance and go with a leap
Into the vast sea-spaces,
Whats blezt relief IT onld bring 10 the grief
And trouble and toll about us,
To be suddenly hurled from the solar world,
Andletit go on without usi
with never a sigh. nor a sad goodbye
For love once len behind us.
We would go with a lunge. and a mighty plunge.
Where nevcrA fear could hnd US.
What a wild. glad thrill our veins would hIl
As the great Earth, ikea feather.
Should float throttle air TO God knows where,
And carry US all t~ogetheri
No dark, damp tomb. and no mourner's gloom,
No tolllng bell in the steeple-
But in one swim breath a painless death
For a million billion people!
What greater bliss could we ask than this
To sweep with a birds free motion.
Through leagues ofspRee 10 n resting place
In a vast and vapory ocean;
To pass away from this life for aye.
With never a dear tie sundered.
And n world on hre for our funeral hyre.

THE JEANETTE INQUIRY.

1t looks as though there was about to be
a scandal in connection with the loss of the
Jeanette. An official inquiry has been
demanded in Congress, and it is intimated
that serious charges will be brought against
some of the officers who have survived.
Whether these charges involve any arraign.
ment OF Lieutenant belong does not yet
appear, but in these days it appears impos.
sible that there should be any Government
expedition without its accompanying scan.

emily been eliminated from public proceed.
ings of this kind, we ought not to be sur
prised if the memory of the dead Com.
mander is attacked. It is pity that the
Jeanette could not have been left where
the ice put her. No doubt there were
serious errors, if not worse, connected with
the preparation of the vessel for sea, but
the country certainly does not desire to
have the characters Of her brave officers
pulled to pieces before Congressional
Committee, even if some OF them did fail
to agree.

A CAMPAIGN OF MENDAcITY.


The Examiner gives its readers to under.
stand that it intends to continue lying
about the railroads throughout the cam.
paign, and that nothing shall induce it to
swerve from this mendacious programme.
In order to prove its capacity in this re-
gard it stoldly reiterates tissue of shame.
less falsehoods which the RECORD. UNION
has thoroughly exposed and refuted; at
the same time endeavoring to take credit
to itself for the dignity and manliness of
its course. OF course we have never ex.
pected common honesty and truthfulness
from George Hearst's private organ. 1t
would have been very unreasonable to
have INDUCED any such anticipations. But
since that concern announces its intention
to refresh its readers from time to time
with our expressions of opinion as to its
course, we may hope that the Democrats
who read the Examiner will obtain some
little compensation for the intellectual and
moral sacrifice they are compelled to make
in perusing our callous contemporary. It
will find, however, before the campaign is
over, that the venerable plan of "tell lie
"and stick to it, which it has adopted as
its motto and maxim, has its drawbacks
and disadvantages, and that brazen repeti.
tions of disproved ISLANDERS will not in the
long run suffice to conceal inability to
argue, and incapacity to distinguish be-
tween truth and falsehood. Meantime we
shall content ourselves with simply stating
that the E.caminer lies, and lies with deliher-
alton and malice prepense, when it asserts
that the Central Pacific Railroad Company
has not kept all its contracts. both with the
General and State Governments, fully and

The cooler weather of the past few days

desto Journal.
From tests made by the agricultural
department of the State University it has
been found that according to the condition
of dryness, wheat, barley and oats will
gain from ten to twenty-five per cent. in
weight when sufficiently long exposed to a
moist atmosphere. 1t is therefore proba.
Bile that the gain in weight on cargoes of
California wheat, in the transit to Europe
will average from five to fifteen per cent.

prices usually paid here are what would

We understand it costs but little if any
more to reclean the wheat as it comes from
the separator, and is run over the cleaner
all with one operation, than it does the old
way of sacking as it comes from the ma

orally adopted, as it is manifestly to the
interest of every farmer to put his wheat in
the best possible condition for the market.
| We have been intimately connected with

quarter of century, and while our farm
ers have made wonderful progress in speed
of harvesting and thrashing, we have made
little or no progress in the quality of the
work performed. -[Sutter Farmer.

ARAB LOSING TIME.

Arab Pasha does not appear to have any
definite plan, or he would scarcely have in.

literally nothing behind it, and from which,
if he is dislodged, he can do nothing more
against the enemy. AS to the dispatch
stating that he has hundred thousand
men, we have no doubt that it was mis-
take for ten thousand, which is probably
the maximum of his forces. What rein.
forcements he has received can only be
raw levies, no doubt unarmed, or armed
with obsolete or useless weapons. If he
intends to remain where he is to receive
the British advance, the slowness of the
English preparations will not affect the
outcome. 1t is not likely that the Egyp.
tian army of to-day has much fight in it,
