An EXAMPLE OF SENSATIONAL JOUR.
NALIsa.

A specimen of sensational journalism,
actuated in addition by prejudice and hate,
has just been presented. The journalist,
OF all Others, should be just. He should be
quite as certain Of his facts as is a Court
of the truth upon which it bases judg-
ment. The San Francisco Chronicle, how
ever, is notorious for its own ends. On
these it bases its comments and thus seeks
80 warp public judgment to it's own views
by proceeding upon false premises. 1t is
a style of journalism in which, until the
advent of the rejuvenated Ecamliaer, the
Chronicle enjoyed the distinction Of being
the sole representative among the daily
press Of the cities of the coast. The ex-
ample referred to is recent. 4 collision
occurred on railroad near Oakland. The
San Francisco Chronicle has an especial
hatred of railroads, and leaves no oppor-
tunity unavsiled of to put in the knife.
Some days after the accident that paper in
an article, especially venomous, stated as
facts that the railroad company had made
no investigation, had takennosteps fix the
responsibility, and still retained in its en-
ployment the men believed to be re.
sponsible. It went on to compare this
neglect and this defiance of public senti-
ment with the system prevailing on lead
ing roads at the East, where, after an ac-
cident, there is immediate suspension OF
the train men, an inquiry, discharge, and
black-listing of the guilty parties This
system it cordially approved and held up
for adoption by the California companies.
Now comes Mr. Manager Towne, of the
Central Pacific, and exposes the insincerity
and dishonesty of the Chronicle, proving
conclusively that it was wholly ignorant OF
the subject, and had not the common hon.
esty to inform itself OF the facts. He shows,
first, that the inquiry, suspension and
black-hsting system credited to the East
ern roads, originated with the Central Pa
ciic, has for years been praoticed by it,
and that the Eastern roads sent to it for
its blanks and rules ION the sub.
ject long ago, and by that means
they first became acquainted with
it. Secondly, he; shows that. contrary to
the positive statement of the Chronicle to
which q falsehood is matter of no mo-
msnt, the inquiry in the 0akland case took
place within ten hours after the accident;
the facts proved that the engineers alone
were responsible, and they were discharged
from the conpany's employment the next
morning. The Chronicle is forced to give
publicity to this evidence of its own
Ignorance and mendaeisy. by publishing
the letter Of the manager on his chsueng-
ing them for once to do railroad com.
pany justice. But it does not give the
refutstion the ssrae prominence it did the
chsrges-it does NOS editorially confess its
shameful perversion of facts, concerning
which it had full opportunity to ascertain
the exact truth. The matter is of value
only as illustrating the methods according
TO which the sheet referred to is conducted.

TIE NEW sUEZ CANAL.

The French company has unqueetionably
got the upper hand of England in the
matter Of constructing new Suez canal.
The original Canal Company, in which
England has not a controlling interest, has
the right to prevent parallel canal being
cut by any rival company, and Egypt is
bound to protect the company in that
right. DeLesseps is reported as saying
that if the English Government rejects his
proposals for new canal, he will appeal
to the civilized wcrld TO sustain him in
resisting England's demands. Such APP
peals do not amount to much, but Egypt
and France will sustain MIN, and England
has no stomach just now for trouble in
either quarter. Still, the dispatches say,
the popular demand is fer a rejection of
De Lesseps' proposition. But the Cabinet
know what is best for the nation, and it is
not to be doubted that it will consent to
the arrangement with the De Lesseps man.
agemeut for the cutting Of a new way.
The Directors report that they have power
to require satisfactory width and depth, a
reduction of dues on British shipping, and
guarantees for the protection Of English
interests. The English people will come
to a proper realization of the facts presently
and viii not force an Issue with their
Premier on this question.

A NEW REBELLION.

In an interview published in q Stockton
paper, David S. Terry pronounoes in op.
position TO the Democratic State Central
Committee on the anti.railroad question.
He advises the County Committees to act
in the matter of an extra session of the
Legislature, irrespective of the chief su-
thority. Unlike those gallant men who
fought and accepted the consequences of q
struggle in which they were sincere, Terry
is still at heart rebellious and unrecon.
structed. The opportunity to oppose con-
stituted authority presents, and he cannot
resist it's temptations. He must rule the
party or kill it. He represents the dicta-
torial element of the chivalry, that will
wreck, where it is not permitted to COM
mand. The State Central Committee OF
the Democratic party proposes, by sub
committee, to investigate the action of the
Railroad Commissioners, and ascertain il
they have been diligent and wise. A more
brazen assumption than this was never
heard Of until Terry's proposition came to
light, to rebel against the representative
body OF his own party. The party war.
fare has now fairly opened. and the De-
mocracy is cleft in twain by new re.
bellion. The opportunity is again at hand
for Terry to make himself notorious, or
the ground that the chief authority of hii
party has not been sufficiently radical Il
suit this would.be political dictator. 1t il
family fight, and, go far as conservative
people on the outside are concerned, il
makes very little difference whether the
bear Or the old man is on top. It is prob
able, however, that the self-respectinG
class of Democrats, and unprecedented citi
zsns outside the party, if they are permit
ted to express a choice in the matter, vii
prefer that the Terry, Foote, Marshall s
Co. element shall be at the bottom in tn:
wind-up.

that in France law now requires ali relig-

ical religionists when they are given full
power, do? They take up the school
books and expunge and substitute after

" The Asses Flower-the Thistle" substi-
tuted. "Thanks, my Cod" has been i'm

TIE RgpU8LIcAT TICKETS.

Ths tone of tie Eastern pregs indicates
that the action of the Massachusetts,, New
Jersey and New York Republican C1nven.
tions meets with popular favor, and that
the nominations arc good and will COM
mand public confidence. 1t is very popu.
lar just now to predict Democratic boom
in 1884, but there is nothing, absolutely
nothing, beyond the confident expression
of the Democrats, to indicate such an out
come of the approaching campaign. The
truth ID that as the dominant party always
occupies position that makes it easy of
assault, it is common to "punoh its head p"
vigorously. This kind OF punishment does
it good, and by no means indicates defeat.
Ii the Republican party was created to
perish by the assaults of its foes, it would
have long since gone the way of the dead.
Bat it will not thus pass away. It will
cease to live only when the intelligent,
thinking and Independent, voter deserts it
for some political organization that to him
appears better adapted to administer the
affairs of the country, At this time there
is nothing in the political horizon to aup.
gest such desertion in 1854. The intelii-
gent, independent voter assuredly is not
going over to the Democracy at this time.
