SUCCESS RESTS Upon MERIT,

a FEW MONTHS AGO THE FhEDEhIOko-
~ burg Brewing Company, OF San Jose, began
the bottling of their Export Pilsener Beer and
since then this fine beer is to be found in the prin-
cpai hotels and saloons in every city and hamlet on
the Pacific Coast including Oregon, Washington
Territory and British Columbia. For the latter
country the largest house in Victoria (Turner, Bee
ton s Coz, is handling it. Large lots were re-
peatedlv shipped to Mexico the Sandwich Islands
and to Yokohama, Japan, where the principal i'm
porting houses are pushing it. In Sacramento Mr.
G. W. Chesley has disposed of several ear loads
since November last, and we invite our customers in
Sacramento to get their bottled Export Beer through
him at the same figures direct rom In quality
this beer compares most fayorably with any Eastern
brani, and is even considered by connoisseurs su-
perior TO any in the market This being the case
and the price lower than Eastern beer, only
minded and ignorant people will hesitate in future
to patronize California production and send their
money East. FREDERICKSBURG BREWING
COMPANY. San Jose and San Francisco. fe5-lav4tTu

if the proclamation issues sit precipitates
perhaps untimely activities upon the Dem
ocrat;c party, which has been wearied by
internal dissensions ever since the victory
of 1882. Under the most favorable cir
cumstances parties hardly live through
extra sessions Of the Legislature. The risk
is heightened by the fact that the legisla-
ton probably asked for is OF kind that
should never be considered in the midst Of
clamor and excitement, because under such
circumstances it invariably proves power
lesq, or produces greater evils than it was
intended to cure"
The Union Democrat of Sonora believes
that if the call were left to vote of
the people, Is very large majority would
give expression against it. Extra sessions
have defeated parties before, and there is
abundant reason for thinking they may do
SO again. They rarely accomplish what
they are called for, and it looks as if failure
alone would follow an extra session"
The Coluss San declines to give its coun-
tenance to the demand for an extra session.
The Tuolumne Independent, after review
ing the situation, believes there IS 10 " ex-
traordinary OCCASION"
The Modesto Daily Strawbuck says an
extra session will be san enormous ex.
pense," and exclaims "What good will
result from calling the Legislature to-
gether. after the tax suits have been set
tied, God only knows"
The Petsluma Argus says an extra ses-
sion of the Legislature would be calamity
to the people"
The San Jose Mercury expresses the be-
lief that its only effect will be to sound the
death.knell of the Democratic party in this
State.
The Cotton Semi. Tropjc is bitterly
vehement in its protest against the policy
that urges an extra session.
The Farmers Journal, which has moth.
ing but hate for the railroads, opposes the
extra session, which it says will cost a vast
sum, without any reasonable prospect of
accomplishing any good, except to give the
politicians and lobbyists chance to bleed
the taxpayers. In less than nine months
new Legislature will be chosen"
The Stockton independent, the leading
journal of that city, a persistent anti.rail.
road paper, is pronounced and earnest in
opposition to cali.
The Red Bluff Sentinel declares that
"only the Bourbon element, the bosses and
politicians of the Democratic party de.
mand an extra session" and it trusts the
Governor will not yield to them.
These are but few of host of similar
expressions of the press taken at single
sitting before one malls exchange list. But
they serve to show that there is no unan-
unity of demand, that in the various Sec
tons OF the interior the people do not re-
cognize any extraordinary occasion, p" and
that the voice of public opinion does not
support the clamorOus appeals of the inter-
ested few who urge the call. On the con-
trary, the expression of the thought of the
State is that such call would be unwise.
Politically, Republicans can well wish it
to be made; but political vantage should
not be had at the expense of State inter
ests, and political ambition should be sub
ordinated at all times to the welfare of the
whole people.

IF IT IS CALlBp, TIE REASON WHY ?
a PROPHECY.

If the Governor shall yield to the harass.
ing petition of an interested and selfish few
and call an extra session of the Legislature,
it must be considered as acquiesence, not
in demands voiced by the people, but
by the machine and boss element, the po-
Iiticsl starvlings of the Democratic party.
II it is called it VIII not be because of
extraordinary OCCASION" for 1t IS con.
ceded and openly confessed dy Democratic
politicians thut the occasion does not eria.
But it will be called because wing of the
Democratic party, opposing the better senti-
ment of the party, believes it will !be a
shrewd campaign dodge.
In short if it is called now, it will be for
campaign purposes, to give Democrats po-
sition, to strip the maternal bosom of the
State to hollow bellied hangers-on OF party,
to enable Democratic demsgogues to
indulge in the delusion that they can
thereby give their party strong position
in the approaching Presidential and State
campaign.
This we know, and the proof is found in
the mouths OF those Democrats who are
more far-seeing, and protest against the
folly of their selfish and reckless political
colleagues.
The " idea is that in the extra aession
the Democracy can pass buncombe laws,
cinch measures, Understanding bills, etc.,
to catch the popular ear, and serve a pur-
pose during the campaigns. For the
legality and reasonableness of the measures
will cut no figure, since they are to be for
use for season only, and the ill-advised
densgogues care very little what becomes
OF such measures after November next.
But the amusing part of this programme
is the faulty that leads these men to
imagine, if they can induce the Governor
to yield to them at the sacrifice of good
Judgment, that the voters OF this State
will not see through the transparent
trickery in which they propose to indulge
The masking is very thin, aud will not
screen the purpose behind it all. Except
for the reason that all this posing will be
at State expense, Republicans could wish
to see the procession move on, but political
masquerading should not be sacrifcial of
State interests.

IT would seem that the Gladstone Min.
istry is on its last legs. The grand old
man" has had rather hard time of it.
Succeeding the brilliant Beaconshed he
had none of the dash and audacious
daring Of that talented statesman. Bea-
constield seemed to love the claugor of
arms, and was always ready to fight a
Russian, an Afghan or Zulu lie
avoided a war with Russia by brave
front and jaunty air at Berlin; but Glad.
stone succeeded him when both the
Afghan aud Zulu wars were ut their
worst. Gladstone has the same horror
of war which characterized Lord Aber-
deem during the negotiations with Rus.
sia which terminated in the Crimean
war. Had this latter statesman showed
a bold front to Nicholas from the very
first no war would have resulted. Had
Gladstone dealt promptly and sharply
with the Egyptian trouble when it first
arose it would never have gathered
head He had no business in the Sou
dan; but. having resolved on war against
the Mahdi, he shodd have sent men
enough to stamp out the rebellion at
once and forever. As it is the troops
have been withdrawn after bout or
two with the Arabs of the Desert, and
the brave Gordon has been shut up for
months in khartoum without any hand
having been stretched to save him.
Gladstones S legislation ou behalf of Ire
land has not had the effect OF nGording
the relief he intended it should, and
honestly hoped for. 1t is well known
that the other members of his Ministry
would not support him in granting as
liberal laws to ireland as he wished.
ireland, Egypt and South Africa have
taken up 80 much of the time Of his
Ministry that but little has been done
towards 'home legislation" He now
proposes to bring in bill to enlarge the
franchise, aud the Tories are determined
that his bill shall not become law. They
win carry the Irish vote with them, and
Gladstone's defeat seems certain. But
when he is overthrown there il none
like unto him TO succeed him. Sir Stat
ford Northcote and Lord Randolph
Churchill both rolled into one would not
make his equal. He has been ask ed to
acccpt a peerage and retire, but he is
too honest to desert his post and will
probably die in harness.
