A Delicate Germ.

The dreaded common bacillus, the
germ of cholera, has proven to be
quite tender organism, which is
quickly killed 10y drying, by a heat of
14O degrees Fahrenheit, aud by many
alkalies and acids. The process of
putrefaction also destroys it in few
hours. In the human body the ba-
cillus lives, on the average, only six
days after the attack; in moist earth
it survives from fourteen to sixteen
days; in distilled water, twenty days;
in sea water, sixty four to eightyone
days; and in the bilge- water of an iron
ship, th;rty-two days. After these
intervals the danger Of contagion
ceases. In common with other dis
ease germs, the bacillus appears to
haye remarkable power of enduring
cold.

The Blackburn Miaiug District and the
oriental Mining District.

To THE EDITOR OF THE TINES:
In your issue of the 9th ultimo it
appears that you considered that the
Blackburn Mining District had been
changed to the ''Oriental Mining Dis
t'ict.' l beg pardon to state that
there has been no change, but the
facts are as follows: We have two
mining districts in this portion of AL
turas county-the Blackburn District,
between Little Lost river and Birch
creek, and the Ontario District, be-
tween Birch creek and Medicine
Lodge creek. The Oriental District
is situated in the extreme eastern
portion of Alturas county. The first
mines found in each district were dis
covered by Charles f. Blackburn.
MIR. Blackburn and his friends were
the organizers of these districts
There are some very promising mines
in each district. Will try and for
ward some notes descriptive of this
section before long.

The only baking powder yet found
by chemical analysis to be entirely
free from lime and absolutely pure is
the Royal" This perfect purity re-
suits from the exclusive use of cream
oftartar specislly refined and prepared
by patient process Of the Y. Y. Tartar
Co., which totally removes the tar
trate of lime and other impurities.
The cost of the chemically pure cream
of tartar is much greater than any
other, and on account Of this greater
cost is used in no baking powder but
the Royal"
Prof. Love, who made the analysis
Of baking powders for the New York
State Board Of Health, as well as for
the Government, says Of the purity
and wholesomeness of "Royal;"

the impure cream of tartar of COM

cream of tartar was also analyzed and
found to contain lime and other i'm
purities, in some samples to the ex-
tent of99per cent oftheir entire weight.

mot including the alum and phosphate
powders, which were long ago discard
ed as unsafe or inefficient by prudent

JUDGE VANscYcKEL of the Supreme
Court has recently rendered decision
that those laws passed by the legisla-
ture classifying cities and boroughs
into first, second and third classes ac-
cording to the population are an eva
sion of the constitution, which provides
that there shall be no special legisla-
ton enacted This decision materi-
ally affects the borough of Pemberton
in our county. Two years ago the leg
islature passed a law providing that
all boroughs of the third class should
obtain license to sell intoxicants from
the Court of Common Pleas of the
County in which they are located.
Judge Vanscyckel's decision renders
that law unconstitutional, throwingthe
power back to the borough council as
provided for originally in the char

STAGNATIoN in all departments of
trade and labor is quite general, being
confined to no particular section of
the country. Last week we reminded
our Democratic friends of the fact
that they promised US better times if
the people would place them in con-
troll of the government. This was
done. Four months have passed un-
der the new order of things and the
vital affairs of the country are growing
worse daily with no prospects of a
change. Nobody believes that a bet
ter condition of things is to come from
Democratic domination, but such were
faithfully promised and it is but hu-
man nature to ask that the prom
ise be fulfilled. All the activity in
dulged in by the administration and
the party is confined to getting office
and turning the rascals (?) out"
From present indications this thing
is likely to last couple of
years yet. Meanwhile the country
will go on and suffer in the interest
of the place hunters. These are facts,
cold facts. A contemporary exclaims
"What nonsense it is to charge the
administration for any dullness that
may exist" OF course it is, and when
dullness shall have been displaced by
renewed activity throughout the land
"What nonsense it will be to charge
the administration with being instru-
mental at all in bringing it about"
The cold fact remains, however, that
we were to have better times under
Democratic rule 1t is now in order
to fulfil that promise or to acknowl-
edge that it was only campaign "guff."
Sincerely, we think it was CUFF. With
thousands and thousands of work
men idle and millions of capital in the
same strait, and a general depression
in all industrial pursuits we can't be-
lieve anything else.

CoNslDERING the present depressed
state of affairs, and that, too with a
high protective tariff. what would be
our condition under a system of free
trade, or no-tarif? England has free
trade. The bank of England has
more money lying idle in its vaults
than have all the banks of America !;
there are five English workmen idle to
one American, and the average rate Of
wages in England is scarcely two
thirds of the average rate in America.
And yet the free trade Democrats are
active and loudly proclaim that they
will renew their attemps to pass tar
if reduction scheme similar to the i'd
iotic Morrison horizontal bill. There
is no use of looking for grand revival
in trade and manufactures so long as
these pestiferous cranks keep the coun-
try agitated on this question. No
sane man is going to invest capital, or
extend his credit to keep his mill or

these demagogues are sat down upon
