SPENCER GEORGE.

Our evening contemporary alleges that
Herbert Spencer and Henry George are in
perfect accord upon the proposition of the
latter relative TO land, confiscation of rent,
common proprietorship, or the universal
landlordship of the State, as advanced by
the latter. We quoted Mr.. Spencer's flat
denial of this charge, in which he expressed
his adherence of Mr. Georges communis-
tic theories and his unqualified disagree
ment with the visionary schemes set out in
Progress and Poverty No more sweep
ing refutation could be made. 1t rose
above any attempted text comparisons of
the two writers. But our neghbor ignored
Spencer'S positive disclaimer, and quoted
paragraphs from him by which it interpret
ed his treatment of original communism in
land rs parallel with Georges impracti-
cable schemes and his famous remedy"
With lofty assumption of wisdom and
assumed profundity of knowledge on these
politico-economic questions it advised us to
4 course Of reading, and regretted the as
sumed superliciality of our examination of
these subjects. Singular as it may seem.
we did not even humbly thank our neigh
Dor for its unsolicited advice. We resented
the impertinence of the irrelevant proiec-
ton of its owlishncss into the debate and
recalled TO our neghbor's memory once
more Mr.. Spencer's fiat denial of concur
renee with Georges views With the dog
ged persistence of mere bullheadeduess,
coupled with offensive remarks. it repeats
its old assertion. With amazing ctIrontery
it refers to its proof" of the concordance
of views between Spencer and George and
concludes with challenge that we shall
quote so much as one line from Spencer
TO show that the evening paper has
misrepreScnted him. This is in keeping
with the logic that has always character
lied our ncighbor'S methods of debate. For
years it has begged questions in this disin-
genuous style, and constantly dealt in chal-
lenges to prove negatives. 1t is notorious
in the community that the Bees uniform
method Is to assert to suit its fancy, assume
the assertion to he proof, and thereafter to
steadily refer to it as such in the present
case the whole trouble is that our contem-
porary is entanglcd in the meshcS of sophis-
try of the Georgian positions, in which he
is untrue TO fact, dealing, rs n recent writer
has put it, in the widest falsehoods. hut he
is not therefore inSincerc, q" for his first and
must complete dupe is himself At the
same time our neighbor does not fathom
Herbert Spencer and if its present position
Is sincere, is incompetent to translate his
text Instead Of calling upon us to produce
lines from Spencer condemning Georges
theories-obviously a silly proposition-it
would be more honest in it TO make its
affirmation good. 1t made u charge; Mr..
Spencer's express denial and sweeping dis
claimer was given in reply, and the rejoin-
der is now made Prove that we misin-
terpreted him by producing line to show
Spencer does not agree with George 1t
would unqueStionably profit our neighbor
to have us reprint largely from Mr.. Spen-
GERS works, TO establish the fact that he
understands himself better than does our
contemporary.

CHICO, June 15th-From observations
made to-day through this section, the dam
age to grain will not be so bad as antlcl-

grain is rising slowly as it becomes dried

Suicide of Young Man.
SAN BERNARDINo, June 15th.-Last night,
at half-paSt s, John w. Condit, young
man who has been living in San Bernar-
dino for about two years past, committed
suicide by blowing his brains out with a
Smith & Wesson 3S-caliber pistol, the ball
entering behind the right ear and coming
out of the left For some months Mr..
Condit was connected with the gas works
of this place, but owing to i'll health was
compelled TO resign, since which time he
has been aiing. This so preyed upon his
mind that it was thought he was not quite
sound. AT the time of the shooting he was
stopping at the residence of A. NJ. Ken
niston. Mr.. Condit was % years old, son OF
Rev. Mr.. Condit, inacharge of the Chinese
mission at Oakland. He was born in China,
where he lived to the age of years, when
his people moved to this county. His funds
were said to be ample, as his father owned
one of the finest places in Riverside, and
friends of deceased state that he was offered
this property as a gift if he would accept il

quest on the remains, finding that deceased

CAMPAIGN CLUBS.

Republican clubs for the campaign are
already being organized A political club
is capable of great good or great harn-one
as much as the other. 1t can be the means
for the expression of genuine enthusiasm,
of unity of action and of promoting a
worthy cause; or it can become the tool of
designing men, the means for the advance
ment Of low ambitions, and the medium
through which partisanship is made to
bleed TO satisfy the greed Of political hang
ers-on. Properly conducted and officered,
club can be made the rallying center fora
given community of partisans, the medium
through which they manifest their wishes,
and the instrument for legitimately and
earnestly promoting the cause of the party
1t is obvious that rs to what club shall
be depends wholly upon the interest which
voters take in its organization. The Blaine
and Logan clubs for Sacramento should be
filled by all the Republican voters. 1t is
essential that every Republican should take
part and make them, from the beginning,
representative and forcelul-not merely
pensioners upon partisan liberality. Who
ever feels it his duty to forward the Repub-
licau cause should take an interest in club
formations and conduct This campaign
promises to be one of unusual earnestness,
and every legitimate means should be used
to make it one full of meaning.

The effect will be far finer, and will call out in

personage-a man who has demonstrated his
power to direct whose ability to organize is
unqucStioned; whose mastery skill in moding
a party is conceded; whose control of the Dcmoc-

the qualities of leader, such as the Democracy
loves to honor, are pre-eminent; n man who has
policy and the discretion to keep it TO himself
until the right time short, the California
Democracy will honor itself by presenting the
name ofitS admitted ruler, Chris Buckley.

The scot falls down, the spaniels sleep,

Hark how the chairs and tables crack;

Her corns with shooting pains torment her,
And to her bed untimely send her.
