impeding its business and incon-
venience on the public by abridging the
company's carrying facilities. 1t is.
on many accounts, highly desirable
that shippers should avail themselves
of the facilities provided for the rapid
loading and unloading eff their grain
on and off the cars. During the busy
part of the grain shipping season it is
important to supply every demand for
cars as rapidly as they are needed.
Every unnecessary detention of cars at
the place where the freight is to be
loaded and unloaded renders the COM
pany still less able to meet the public
needs.
Besides, it is not fair nor reasonable
that the shipper who, to avail and re-
ceive elevator charges, unloads his
grain by methods that Uetain the cars
upon the track at the place of delivery
for twelve hours, should be charged the
same and no more than one who, by
paying for the use of modern methods,
detains the car but one-fourth of that
time.
But we think tho practice of taxing
side-track deliveries by an increased
rate on shipment is one that the Jaw
does not sanction. This is service
that should be done for all on equal
terms under similar circumstances and
conditions; and if one man has pro-
vided himself with facilities of his own,
or any other means than by elevator,
he should not be taxed for not taking his
grain there. The extra tax should be
placed on those who consume car facli-
ties by unreasonable detention, and all
detention, especially in busy season,
caused by failure to employ facilities
for unloading, is unreasonable.
We are of the opinion that the move
just mentioned, and one more in con-
sOnance with the spirit of the law,
would be to tax the detention of the
cars by reason of demurrage, beyond
such time as the company may fix az
reasonable, having reference to all the
facilities available At the point of desti-
nation.
We think, further, that it would be
proper for the company to exact pay
ment in advance, of a specific amount,
upon all shipments of grain to be de-
livered elsewhere upon its track than
at elevators, or mills or warehouses,
Immediately upon its line, having
dumps, elevators, or other facilities
for the rapid handling of grain. The
demurra9e or any portion of it to be
refunded to the shipper in the proper
tion as he does or does not detain the
car beyond the minimum fixed period.
In the case Of this complainant he
shipped to the Zenith Mills, and it does
not appear that he is chargeable with
unreasonably OBTAINING the cars, and
we think the rate of two cents extra,
the rate to shippers, was excessive.

Found Guilty Of Murder.
Tho Commissioner Case.

The District Court, Bigelow. Judge,
was occupied yesterday morning and
afternoon in the argument Of demurrer
in the case Of N. Smith and William
Arlington, County Commissioners. The
discussion turned upon the question
whether the Commissioners named are
liable, under the Act Of the last Legisla-
ture, which says that ''each person elected
or appointed to the Office Of County Com
missioner in this State shall give bonds
in the sum Of SIS, 900 before entering upon
the discharge of the duties of such Office
1t is claimed for the defendants that when
this law was passed they had already given
bonds and had entered upon the dis
charge Of their duties, and that hence the
statute does not apply to them. For the
county it was argued that the statute re.
ferred to does away with all conflicting
former ensctments and applies as fully al
though it had been in existence prior to
the election Of the defendants as County
Commissioners. His Honor took the case
under advisement.

school Affairs.

The Board OF School Trustees Of Eureka
School District met day before yesterday
to discuss some matters of interest. They
decided to order q vacation Of two weeks,
taking in Christmas and New Years
beginning Friday, Dec. 81. 1t was de-
to rmined as soon as school is dismissed to
utilize the vacation by having some much
needed repairs and improvements made in
the rear premises. Having been informed
by Principal Young that he would not be
able to remain in charge OF the schools
next year, q large number of applications
for the place were considered, which
resulted in the choice of E. P. Mcdonald
of Gold Hill. The difficulty Of getting a
first.rate man for the Principalship has
embarrassed the Board considerably. The
Trustees have done the best they could do
in the premises, however, and in the pres
emit instance they feel satisfied that they
have secured the services OF . gentleman
who will do good service. Mr.. Mcdonald
has taught for three years in the depart
ments OF the Gold Hill schools and has
been so much appreciated in that field
that, we are told, had he remained where
he is until Jan. /, he would have been
offered the Principalship Of the schools
there which are much more numerous and
advanced than the schools Of Eureka. He
will come here to be with Mr.. Young dur
ing the last week Of school, in order to
study the condition of the Eureka
schools 90 as to start out at once and In
full blast again when they reopen, without
the delay Of recognizing.

Brokers Ctnched.

Speaking Of the boom in Ophir Friday,
the Post has the following in regard tc
some Of the San Francisco brokers: ''The
days rise Of 81 rs in the shares Of Ophil
was doubtless helped by the buying o.
certain strictly commission brokers, who
had privately sold their customers stocks
to Morrow, and had been suddenly called
upon for the same by the aforesaid Gus
toners. Another reason for the advance
was the purchases Of Morrow himself, in
order to make up for $500 shares Of stocl
which had suddenly been withdrawn from
him by a leading brokerage house, ani
thrown over to the Flood side."

Remarkable Vegetation.

1t is surprising to know that a gentleman
in Eureka has some tomato plants here on
which the tomatoes have just matured.
Right now in the depth Of Winter in this
rigorous climate Of early frosts, Otto
Doetzel is delighted to show to his friends
a number of luscious, perfectly ripe toms-
toes, growing naturally on the plants. Mr..
Boetzel lives in a stone dwelling in which
the temperature is kept nearly Uniform
the year round. During the present cold
weather he has fire in the morning and at
night when he returns home to bed. In
this way the air is kept at a degree OF
warmth favorable to the growth Of plants.
Some of his tomatoes bushes he got from
the seeds and others by transplanting.
He kept the boxes in which they grew
out in the open air until q frost
threatened and then he put them
in the house where he has kept
them ever since. The only fresh air they
got during this time was about q half-hour
a day, when he would leave the house
doors open for ventilation. The vegeta-
bles have taken altogether about six
| months to mature, a little less than half
the time that would be required in the
| open air in California. Mr.. Boetzel is
| much pleased with his experiment under
| taken for pastime. He thinks it proves
that unexpected aud very valuable results
may be accomplished from dollhouse cul-
ture in Eureka. He is satisfied that vege-
table plants of almost any kind may be
started successfully even in midwinter,
and hence may be brought to maturity at
any time Of the year desired. On the
plant which he will place on exhibition at
Joe Mendes to-day q very pretty and inter.
esting growth appears. On one branch OF
it there are dead ripe tomatoes, while on
another branch OF it are tomatoes the size
of marbles, and, also, . number Of tomato
blossoms.

On another occasion by some means Neil
