CASH GROCERS.

Our advent in the Trade as CASH GROCERS
has been only OF short duration, and yet now
we say TO the public that Our venture has proven
successful far beyond our greatest hopes, and
why is it? Simply that the people have been so
long under the control of Credit Houses" and
compelled to pay exorbitant prices for goods,
that a relief from such oppression is eagerly
sought Business of all kinds is now at low
ebb workingman receives but small COM
pensaton for his labor; he cannot afford to throw
his money way. He does not want 10, but still he
is compelled to sacrifice nearly his entire salary
to Credit Houses in return for mere living. 1t
is not right, and can be remedied. Buy your
GROCERIES from CASH HOUSE, where there
are no losses through bad debts, and you will be
surprised at what you save. The expenses of
our store are very small. We buy all goods for
CASH, and we are offering BARGAINS such as
CASH BUYERS should receive. Note the fol-

LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.
VIII They Do It2

The proprietors of the stud-horse poker
and dice gambling deadfalls in this city
claim that they are certain of securing the
favorable consideration and support of the
City Trustees at their meeting this morn
ing. They claim that a license ordinance
will be passed, whereby for a moderate
sum they will secure in legal way the in
dorsement, sanction and approval of our
City Fathers that, so far as the indorse-
ment of the City Trustees is of any weight,
they will have that Endorsement and
weight thrown in their favor to make the
robblng business, by means of stud-horse
poker and dice gambling, as respectable as
selling groceries or a morning beefsteak.
The Trustees are not responsible for claims
made by others that they look favorably
upon gambling robbery, and intend, under
the prctense of regulating" by imposing
a license upon it, to give it their
official and personal sanction and
approval but the people and voters
of Sacramento will watch with
intense interest to see whether the gamblers
made these claims knowingly, and if they
did, but one construction will be placed
upon the action of the Board in trying to
affix the seal of responsibility upon this
arch lntamy. To place license fee of say
800 per month on these robberies is but
little short of an open declaration of official
partnership with them. Information has
been received at this office during the past
week giving the names of proprietors
and location of five stud-horse poker
and dice establishments in the city,
which make from 1000 to $500 per
month each by their nefarious work.
These proprietors will be present in force
this morning again, before the Board of
Trustees, as they were last Monday, to
stimulate the members to legislate in their
behalf, by passing the ordinance to license
these robberieS. In the face of present
facts it would be useless to try to disguise
the plain result, if not intent, of such an
ordinance. Gamblers do not turn out IN force
10 lobby for an ordinance not IN their interest
Therefore ifi be passed, the vote by which
it is done will be an open declaration that
1t was done, not to suppress or regulate
but in the interest of these lobbyists and
these robbing games.
twill remembered thatat the last meet
ing of the Board of Trustees the law officer
OF the city stated before the Board that if
an ordinance was passed making these
places and games unlawful, it could and
would be enforced. This fact leaves the
matter one of mere choice with the
Trustees whether they will serve the inter
crest of our boys, the young men, their
homes and the reputation of the city, by
stamping out the terrible crime, or serve
these gamblers and indorse their robberies
by granting their petition for license
There is an admonition handed down
from of old, which seems as if written to
our city fathers for this occasion g Choose
&c Htls day lChOm ye wW SerTe."

A Cold Shake.

The Woodland Democracy, on FRIDAY
last, sent to this city large hand-bills
printed in blood-red letters, announcing the
fact that the Democracy of 4olo would
have a grand whoop-up, Saturday night,
when they would ratify the election of
Cleveland, Hendricks and Reform. They
extended an invitation to the Democratic
organizations of this city to be present
They even went farther and said, Come
and be our guests Saturday evening
about 200. among them several Republic
cans, left in cars attached to the regular
train, fare 81 for the round trip. AT the
Woodland depot they were met by large
number of citizens and escorted into the
town. They marched up and down Nam
street three times, until the Sacramento
boys commenced to growl and ask Where
is the speaking going to take placer This,
however, was not on the programme. The
procession was disbanded in front OF the
Capitol Hotel The boys from Sacramento
then marched up town, lmprovlsed a
speakers stand, and with the assistance of
the Hussar band soon had crowd. John
Lambert called the meeting to order, and
introduced as the first speaker +. NJ Brown,
of the Woodland Democrat. He made
speech which was well received, and was
followed by Judge w. A. Henry OF this city,
former resident of Yolo. Br1ef remarks
were made by several others. Alter the
meeting the Sacramento boys took their
band and serenaded General Minis and
others. At 10 o'clock the town was all
quiet. The Woodlandites, with perhaps an
exception of half a dozen who were in the
" gin business" had closed up shop and re-
tired for the night. Two hundred Sacra-
mento boys, the invited guests of the
Woodland Democracy, stood in the streets
hungry, thirsty and sleepy. Their train
did not return until next morning. They
could not get meal of victuals in the
town. excepting at the w. G. 7. u, which
closed its doors early. A bed was some
thing that could not be secured, the whisky
could not be endured, and the only thing
left for the boys to do was to file down the
dark street to the depot, climb into the cars
and doze away till morning. The way in
which they were treated was subject of
much comment and on vote being taken
it was decided unanimously that the peo-
pie of Yolo did the proper thing in sitting
down on the Democracy at the last election.
An officer of one of the Democratic clubs
of this city said he hoped sincerely that the
Democracy of Yolo county would never
elect another man on their ticket not even
a Constable.

Profits OF Poetry.

"Writing for the magazines" says a
gentleman who is a frequent contributor
to The Atlantic and Century, lis most
exasperating way of turning work into
pay Say what they will, there are
sets that have ossified about each mag

break through. If one is unfortunate
enough to be poet the chances multi
ply against him. For one thing, the
compensation is disheartening, although
suppose it is all that good business
judgment can offer. | have been
foolish enough to write what
would make fair-sized duodecimo vol

Some Americans, by law made free
and equal, are not above snobbery of the
rankest kind Worse than this, the
American snob, to his own weakness,
adds those of other countries; wears cor
onets on his plates and panels of his car
'riage which do not belong to him; speaks
of his worthy fellow citizens who happen
to lease land from him as q ''tenantry.
The farmer, too, be often calls q peasant.
These expressions, belonging to an en-
tirely different order of things, are inn
ported into the American speech at a
great disadvantage, and they are the
evidence Of a deeper feeling which under
lies them.
Americans are very fond of uniforms
and regalia. A shooting contest is an
excuse for an order, and every veloci,
pedist has a row of glittering baubles on
his breast Americans speak of mesalli-
ances. and object to their daughters and
sons marrying beneath Them and in
every way show that those class distinc-
lions they profess to despise exist with
them as well as with the foreigner.
