FROM CALIFORNIA.
NATIONAL CRY, Cal, Nov. %. 1888

NATIONAL CRY, Cal. Nov. 90. 1885.
TRAHscR1rT:-Well, after pleasant
trip. We arrived in National City last
Wednesday morning. On our, way we
stopped few days IN Los Angeles.
Found very fine city, surrounded by
groves of oranges. lemons, apples, and
walnut trees on all sides. Sunday went
up to Santa Monica, and stepped over
night with Mr.. Henry Webb we'll known
in Austin and Lansing; found them all
well, and received q cordial welcome.
On Sunday night it began to rain, and
how it did come down, without the aid
of any thunder or lightning, but IN {.
silent rush. The ground was all ready
for it, and eagerly drank all that fell,
and up to this time it has ra,red every
day, and the ground is getting well soak
ed. The grass and vegetation of all
kinds is springing up rapidly, and soon
the hills will be covered with 4 fresh
coat of green. Have been making garden
to-day. Shall soon look for green peas
and many other vegetables.
We found quite q good supply of fruit
left here yet. Grapes quite plenty, ap-
pies, pears, oranges, &C.
There will be quite large amount of
grain sown this season. down where the
Minnesota people have located. There
will also be a large amount Of fruit trees
put out.
| Yesterday saw Mr.. F. Lehman, from
the Big Otog Mesa, who says the vegeta-
ton is starting rapidly down there; also
says there will be several hundred acres
Of new land put into grain this season.
Mr.. Fred Condo of Udolpho, is stop
ping with him. and is likely to locate in
that section of the country. Mr.. Condo
can see chance there for the large fields
of grain he is used to seeing in Minnesota.
Our little town is we'll filed up, and
new arrivals every day. 1t now looks
as II the country would all be soon SET
tied up, and that land which is now very
high would soon be out of REACH but
there is still plenty left, by going few
miles for it. If you would like to know
what sort of weather we are now hav.
ing, just imagine one of the loveliest
spring days you can remember of enjoy.
ing, and you will probably come very
near the weather we are having, here to-
day. Shall 90 out around the country
next week, and take a look at the I'M
provements that have been made within
the last two months and will then lei
you know what think of our prospects

Cure for Piles.

Piles arc frequently preceded by sense of
weight in the back, loins, and lower part OF
the abdomen, causing the patient to suppose
he has some affection Of the kidneys or neigh.
boring organs. At times, symptoms of indi.
gestion are present, flatulency, uneasiness OF
the stomach, etc. A moisture like perspira-
ton, producing very disagreeable itching,
after getting warm, is a common attendant.
Blind, Bleeding and Itching Piles yield at once
to the application of DR.. BOsankO's Pile Rem
edy, which acts directly upon the parts AFFECT
ed, absorbing the tumors, allaying the intense
itching. and e6ecting q permanent cure.

man Dobbins.
10 ne Edaer effhe Register.
sIR-In yesterdays REcIsrER Mr. N.
Stein attempts to answer my communicar
ton ofthe day before by asserting that
Am off in common sense" and have 90
email brain" &c, but makes 10 point to
rtpute my statements. Now, ss to common
sense, I claim to have enough to prevent
me from usiDg my official positions in such
q manner as to create public scandal or
have my character investigated by the
authorities. i am surprised that the
gentleman denies his action in
the committee that agreed to
the proposition of purchase Of the north
half of the Capitol at $50, 900. or the south
half at $4,000. The committee from the
Board consisted of Eve members, Of which
Mr.. Stein was one. He not only agreed to
the proposition but talked in favor of il, and
when the two committees met jointly they
agreed unanimously to report back to their
respective bodies in favor Of the proposition.
The other four members of the committee
from the Board will bear me out in this
statement
1t is not necessary to furnish proof that
some of the members OF the Board have ex-
pressed themselves ss favorable to building
q new Court House at cost OF. from
100000 to $500, COO, as the members who
have so expressed themselves will not deny
it, but lift is Q matter of material interest it
can be furnished. -
The gentleman says he conscientiously
represents his people in public matters |
would like to know if he represented them
in voting for large appropriations for county
roads, or # be was representing their inter
est when he moved to appropriate the sum
Of $4,000 for bridge at Psttersons ford
which but few people would use?
