WHY NOT INVESTIGATE ,

1t looks as if the Supervisors would ig-
more the demand for an investigation OF the
charges made by the Grand Jury. It is
said they have enough to do now, and
have no money with which to conduct an
inquiry. Az to the first objection they
are salaried by the month, and have two
weeks vacation monthly in which com.
mittee might put in a few hours for the
county without danger of overwork. As
to the seccnd demurrer, there need be no
cost if the committee chosen is competent
to note down the few facts necessary to be
evolved. 1t is due to the old Board that
the stigma attaching to it should be re-
moved it is due to the people that the
facts should be known it is due to the
new Board that an Investigation be had
INTO the deplorable condition of the county
finances, and into the charges of malad,
ministration in the past. that the evils
may be remedied by them and avoided for
the future. The Grand Jury might not be
able to indict, and still there be such
wrongs as to need correction. We have
confidence in the new Board TO investigate,
and believe it will not find it laborious
taak-besides. it is its bounden duty as
the executive and legislative organization
of the county.

STATE GUARANTEE GROUNDS

Drs. Gibbons. Hatch and Rowell, ap.
pointed to select State quarantine grounds,
have reported the selection Of lands at two
points, either of which they recommend to
be condemned and taken. 0ne is on the
east of San Francisco Bay, in Contra Costa
county, on peninsula several miles long,
and separated from the mainland by salt
marshes. Another is on the same shore,
two miles further north. The first is Point
Richmond, the other Violate Point. The
anchorage at either place is good, the lands
desirable, the climate unexceptionable, and
the section is entirely uninhabited. No
estimate is made OF TIE probable cost of
proper buildings, but the FIRST stem. the
condemnation of one spot or the other,
should be provided for at once. Governor
Stoneman has sent the report, with a
special message, to the Legislature. The
longer we delay in securing a quarantine
station, the greater viii be the difficulties
encountered, and the heavier the cost to
the State.

A CLERICAL CASE.

Rev. Heber Newton is an Episcopal
clergyman of distinction in New York.
He recently created commotion by de-
livery OF sermon denying, in part, the
inspiration of the Scriptures, and generally
thrown doubt upon the Bible as reliable
record. For this he has been cited to show
cause why he should not be disrobed.
Thereupon some Of the secular press, which
always assumes to know much about the
ethics of the Church organizations, declares
that Mr.. Newton is to be prosecuted for
opinions sake, and that the Church is seek.
| ing to suppress truth. We have no war
rant to speak for the Church, but we have
authority to speak for the secular press,
and ia it's behalf we protest against COM
mitting it to that position. Mr.. Newton is
a member of the Church militant. As such
he is bound to conform to its discipline and
obey its commands. He signed solemn
contract to that effect when he was or.
dained-let him keep it,. or lay aside his
robes. We should have no respect for a
Church too weak to enforce obsdi-
ence on the part of its servants.
Without organization q Church cannot
exist. Every Church is founded on certain
principles, the maintenance of which Is
essential to its vitality. When one of the
clergy seeks to put down the principles he
has sworn to uphold, he commits treason to
his Church. That is all there is in it. He
may be right-no matter how lofty his
ground no matter how true his stand he
is none the less trsitorous to his Church.
His remedyis in freeing himEsN from the
obligation. When in good conscience he
can no longer stsrd by his creed, let him
lay aside his robes, and say, Brethren. we
csn no longer dwell together in unity-fare-
well" Far better might a political parti.
san expect to remain in utilization with his
party when stamping for the opposing or
ganization and advocating its principles, as
a member of Church expect support
while denouncing, in robes, the code of his
organization. In this case the Cnurch is
right in diaciplining the priest, and the
secular press is wrong in srraigning the
Church for its act.

CHEAP SCHOOL BOOKS.

/ The superintendent OF the State Print
ing Office reports that if he is to make no
allowance fo- wear and tear of material in
HE office, he can produce set of school
books for 81 3S5 that now costs the people
s. 08, being gain TO the buyers Of So So,
or over y per cent. Ii now we allow, as
he suggests, that wear and tear OF material
and machinery and cost OF distribution
will eqaul % per cent. added to the actual
cost Of the books, we would still be able
to produce them nearly so per cent.
cheaper. In this calculation no account is
made of the production Of a geography,
but it is estimated that its cost would
be proportionately decreased also, and that
the State Engineers force could furnish
physical charts for such work, as to this
coast, that would be superior to any in the
Eastern works. The Superintendent points
out that if the State would electrotype
the plates of the books as printed, the
| cost of all, after the first edition, would be
reduced vastly more, and we are inclined
to believe that he will find it will Offset all
the cost, and more too, of the new presses
and type required, and pay also for a
stereotyping apparatus for the State, which
it needs already. Assuming that these es-
Inmates are correct, and they seem to have
been very carefully made, the problem is
solved as to cheap books. And still
more serious one is settled, to wit, the
elimination from our system of the quar-.
rels OF the publishers, and the debssing in.
! huences Of their canvass among the School
Boards Of the counties. Let the State
order set of books prepared, allow the
State Superintendent of Public Instruc-
tion-a gentleman in every particular
thoroughly qualifed-to have control of

demands, and in few months the State
can furnish the people text books at cost

DEAFNESS IN CHILDHOOD.

In many cases OF deafness that present themselves
for treatment, the loss Of hearing can be clearly
traced to some triing aural complaint. which com.
menced during infancy or childhood, and was
allowed to run unchecked and unattended. Usually
there are no visible symptoms deno.ing diseased
condition of the ear The child merely suffers from
slight but growing indisnetness of hearing which
assumes the appearance of absent mindedness, care
lessness. stupidity inAttenticn, for which persist
emit punishment is often inflicted when the fault is
entirely due to defective hearing. As soon there
fore as the slightest doubt exists in reference to
childs ability to hear, medical advice should be
obtained, in order to have thorough examination.
Many cases, by proper and timely treatment, are
susceptible Of complete relief which, II neglected
become hopelessly ncurable

NOISES IN TIE HEAD.

Noises in the head are sometimes the first and
only indication of a morbid condition Of the ear.
They may resemble the escape of steam, the ringing
OF bells, the beating of the heart, the humming Of
insects the rafting Of machinery, the roar OF the
SURF the singing Of the teakette and in fact every
imaginable sound often two distinct noises are
perceived simultaneously, or one noise continues
while the other appears at intervals. There is often
a throbbing beating or pumping sound, with or
without sensation OF heayness or fullness in the
head, sometimes more noticeable when iatigued,
after unusual exercise or excitement or after meals
Noises in the head impair the functions OF the BRAIN
and exercise most depressing mental and moral
influence upon the patient, sufficiently as 10 lead
sometimes to suicide The mental distress and tort
ure which they occasion are often 50 great that
many a patient is far more anxious TO have the
noises removed than the hearing restored, if only
one thug or the other could be accomplished.

PROGRESS OF DEAFNESS.

Deafness varies in degree from the non-apprecia-
ton Of faint AMI low sounds to the total loss of
hearing. During the incipient stages of deafness
the patient usually hears well enough when listening
while paying close attention. but is quite hard of
hearing when not expecting to be addressed Under
these circumstances the person SO afflicted often
appears needless and inat.entiye, until the impaired
condition of the hearing power becomes more
noticeable and explains the difficulty. AS the com.
plant progresses, we find that the patient expert.
ences and more difficulty to hear readily even
while paying close attention, when two or more are
talking, or when the conversation is carried on in
low tone OF voice, especially il the articulation of
those with whom they converse is not sufficiently
distinct In such cases, they hear the sound of the
voice, but fail to catch the words, and henee they
continually complain of persons " talking way down
the throat" In this almost impereeptibly slow and
gradual manner hearing becomes more and more
eIouded and inistinct, until it is entirely lost or
very seriously impaired.
During the incpient stages Of deafness, delusive
feeling Of clrsure obstruction is often experienced
in the ears which the patient endeavors to remove
by shaking the head, digging into the with ear
spoons and other dangerous c'ntrivances, or by a
persistent course of Swinging, proceeding often
attended by most injurious results.

instances is the hearing lost suddenly; in most
