MCDONALD FOR THE CABINET.
re is Heartily Endorsed by His
Party at Home and Elsewhere.

EAfty bt HhOine dhN hlthbWhoEo.
From what l have seen aud heard and
after reasoning with the situation, should
think there is little doubt that ex-senator
Mcdonald will be included in the make
up Of Mr.. Cleveland's Cabinet" said the
Hon. John G. New, of Indiana, to CRITIC
man to-day. "He is Endorsed by the en-
tire party in his State" continued Mr..
New, 'aud his friends everywhere conf
IDENTIFY expect to see him in tho Cabinet,
and If he is not given place there will be
not little disappointment. Senator Nc
Donald is one of the brainiest men in the
Democratic party, and with his thorough
honor and integrity he would strengthen
the counsels of any President. He is held
in very high esteem by all classes at his
home. With Senator Mcdonald in the
Cabinet the ranks of the Democracy IN In-
diana would be we'll closed up. The lead
ing men would be in prominent positions,
and should think the Democrats univer.
sally satisfied"
Speaking of the reelection Of Senator
Voorhees, by the Indiana Legislature, now
in session, Mr.. New expressed the opinion
that the Republicans would cast their COM
plimentary vote for Ex-Governor Porter,
who had made an excellent and popular
executive, and whose position before the
people of the State at this time made 1t
highly proper that he should be thus recog-
nized for his services to the Republican

The mother and other relatives Of DR..
John Linthicum, who died at Kcarney,

coroner, however, sent word that an in
quest had been held and that the pro-
ceedings would be forwarded by mail
Yesterday morning Mrs. Linthicum re-
ceived letter from Mr.. Benschatter
stating that he and another friend Of DR..
Linthicum called at the latters house to
sit up with him tho night before he died.
At nine o'clock, however, DIR. Jackson and
his daughter, who lived with DIR. Linthi-
cum, entered the room and insisted on the
visitors leaving, stating that thoy would
take care Of tho patient. At five o'clock
the following morning Dr. Linthicum died.
Mr.. Beuschatter added that when he en-
tered the room Linthicum seemed to be
suffering very much aud was unable to
talk. The only words he uttered were /;
ar could only tell you something
The person in whose family DIR. Linthi-
cum resided while practicing at Glendale,
Nd, wrote to DIR. jackson immediately on
learning of DR.. Linthicums death, but Dr..
Jackson has not yet replied.

An Important Resolution Adopted
by the Congo Conference.

The Congo Conference is just now attract
ing the attention of the whole civilized
world. There is good deal of comment
because Mr.. Kasson and General Sanford
were at the conference. Some are inclined
to criticise these gentlemen on the broad
ground that American representatives had
no business meddling IN foreign matters.
The truth of the story about Mr., Kasson's
and General Sanford's presence at the con-
ference is just told. They were there to see
that resolution indorsing the clothing
house of Robinson, Parker & Co., southeast
corner of Seventh and ID streets, was passed
The resolution was adopted.

BOARDS OF EXAMINATION.
Superintendent WeIcl1er Holds Against
the CITY Boards.

the City Boards.
The following letter from Prof. W. T
Welcler, Superintendent of Public Instruc-
ton, will probably create something of a
sensation among school officials in counties
where there are City and County Boards OF
Examination
SACRAMENTO, January 81. 1885.
J. IL. Sun;3ie-. Esq, Secretary Board Of Education
Of Odkldnd-DEAR SIR: i have read Your letter
stating that you had been requested TO ask from
me an answer to the following question:
=" Does the recent amendment of the Constitu-
ton abolish the City Boards of Examination, as
heretofore contemplated by Section Z, Article
IX%'
The part of the amendment which bears upon
the matter OF your question reads as follows:
The Legislature shall provide for a Board of
Education in each county of the State.
The County Superintendent and the County
Boards of Education shall have control of the
examination of teachers; and the granting OF
teachers certificates within their respective
Jurisdictions
The article before amendment confided this
matter to - the local Boards of Education" a
comprehensive phrase which included City
Boards. But now the Constitution is specific,
and gives the whole control of the matter to
County superintendent and County Boards OF
Education.
ents is over all within the borders of the county;
and similarly with the County Boards of Educa-
ton.
Previous TO amendment the Constitution per-
mltted certain places to be excepted out of that
jurisdiction, to wit, cities, by the Political
Code; but, as it now stands, the whole control
of the examination and cerification of teachers
is confined to the County Boards and County
superintendent.
Nc doubt this result is unexpected and will
result in some inconvenience, if not hardship,
to innocent individuals. but it seems to be inc
vitable. Respectfully your obedient servent
WIN. T. WELCKER
Superintendent of Public Instruction.

yITICULTURAL QUESTIONS.
An Important Discussion to Take fiiee
This Evening.

The meeting TO be held this evening IN
the Assembly Chamber at half-past :
o'clock, for the purpose of investigating
the present condition and immediate future
of yiticultural industries, will be attended
bv some of their foremost representatives
who are anxious that the State should real
ize that the prosperity of the whole coast Is
involved in the questions that are to be
presented Among those who Will be
present AT the cali of the committee are
Arpad Haraszthy and Charles hohier' of

Krug, of ST. Helena; George west Oh
Stockton: J. DeBarth Shorb, OF San ga
briei: |. DeTurk, of Santa Rosa and
Charles A. Wemore Chief Executive
Officer OF the Viticultural Commission
The Senate Committee on Agriculture has
been invited to attend with the Assembly
committee in this investigation, so as 10
avoid repetition of such meetings ana a
waste of valuable time. 1t is understood
also that the committees and the members
of the Vitic1ltural Commission desire
that as many of the members of the Legs
lature as possible may be present. Inc
public may also find something OF interest
on the occasion. 1t is q vital question IN
many parts OF the State whether yltlcult-
ure shall prove profitable industry and
means of settling the country with pros
porous population. A failure TO make q
steady success in this line would be Sc
we're blow to the whole coast.
