Few Rich Men in California.

The majority of people in this State
are not rich. There was a time when
the glamour of wealth seemed to be
over all the State. There are not so
many rich people in California to-day
in proportion to the population as
there are in each one of the older
States Of the Union. There is less
warrant for costly living or for do
nestle expenditures on the scale of
prospective fortunes. Looking to the
future, one might inquire what are the
prospective sources OF wealth? There
are no more great fortunes to be made
in railway construction, few or no
great fortunes to be made in mining
ventures, the stock boards are no
longer prominent Only tho slow
processes of wealth are left-agricult-
uro, manufactures and industrial pur-
suits generally, which are most fitting
for people who are not wealthy, but
who have not yet quite forgotten tho
lives of their fathers and mothers-the
domestic economy by means of which
large families were well brought up,
educated and sent out into the world
to make their own way successfully.

THE County Board was in session yes
terday, hearing a case of considerable i'm
portance growing out Of the work of As
SCISSOR Parker. II was the case of the Hi
nois Railroad Company which, through its
attorneys here, Messrs. Green & Gilbert,
made objection to listing the elevator
as taxable property, the company claiming
that the elevator is exempt from taxation
because it is part of the property of the
company used in the operation of the road,
which, under the State law requiring the
company to pay certain percentum of its
earnings into the State Treasury every
year, is exempted from general taxation.
Judge Green appeared for the company,
and States Attorney Leek for the people
The case was first brought before Judge
Robinson, but Mr.. Leek made the point
that this Court had no jurisdiction, but
that the objection should have been made
before the County Board. The Court sus-
tanned the point, and hence it is that the
County Board has the case under considera-
ton. Messrs. Henry Halliday and Chas.
Evans were examined yesterday for the
people, after which the board adjourned
till Monday when Mr.. Jeffrey Will testify
for the company.

Mere outward application of so-called
remedies for rheumatism and neuralgia
must necessarily fail of their purpose, be
cause the origin of the trouble is untouch-
ed. These twin diseases are essentially
diseases of the blood, and must be dealt
with accordingly. This is just what Ath-
lophoros aims to do, and the success that
has been met with can best be measured by
the hundreds of unsought testimonials that
the manufacturers are daily receiving.

in line with established custom that,
provided bodily strength and mental
vigor were undated, his retention in
the senatorial Office had long been con-
sidered entirely matter of course.
The great distinction of fourth sue
cessive election loses none of its glory
by the circumstance that there was no
one to dispute his title to the position.
That he has so well and faithfully per-
formed the duties of his Office that at
the advanced age of seventy-four years,
after six elections to the house of rep
resentatives and toward the close of
eighteen years in the senate--a period
of thirty years of continuous service
he finds the gateway to six years of
further public duty undisputed by a
rival and adorned with laurels won
from the past, should be most grateful
to the heart of the statesman.
