Death of the Percheron Stallion Voltaire
IL is unfortunate that at times Il good
animal falls into the hands of bad
man. 1t is told that VOltaire was taken
to Denver, Colorado, by rail aud the
very next day started on foot for Fort
Collins, distance of % miles, and was
made tn cover about fifty miles the
same day. The next day, ut LOveland,

in such a condition that whips were
procured and under their frequent
stimulus he was made to reach Fort
Collins, where he was found to be i'll
with pneumonia, and SO far gone that
he died in Il few hours.

Call for a Horse breeders, Society.

There is a movement going on in
this state for the organization of a state
horse breeders society, but we do not
learn that any one in this county is
taking an active part in it. This is a
matter to be regretted. We cannot
pay too much attention to breeding
good horses, nor too little to the trOt-
ting of poor ones. By the way, how
much longer will the people stand the
swindles called horse races

A sAD-EYED COMMITTEE.

The Democratic County Committee of
San Francisco is in great distress. With
al, it IS very mad At its meeting on
Friday it adopted resolutions that, after
reciting the ''deplorable condition" of the
party, clamor for harmony in the organi-
cation and reconciliation between the
warning factions and "di5cordant ele-
ments." To that end a subcommittee has
been appointed to meet representatives
from the antagonistic factions of the
party and effect a reconciliation " which,
1t declares is prevented only by ~ spirit
of vindictiveness," etc. Not long ago that
exponent of Democratic opinion, the San
Francisco Examiner with assumed wrath,
lectured the people and the press WHO
dared to insinuate that there was any lack
of harmony within the party. Here, how
ever, we have an official declaration that
inharmony is the rule, and that the condi-
ton of the party in California is "deplora-
BILE" If it is capable of it, this utterance
by the committee should cause the Erolni-
1ter to blush
President Donovan, of the committee,
went further than the resolutions, and re.
ferred at length to the more important
schisms in the party throughout the whole
country. He was greatly hurt by the
orders for retrenchment in Federal depart
ments, 1t had worked the abolition Of

terests. He pointed out that without the
Irish vote the Democratic party would be
but skeleton-there would he left, he
exclaimed, with pathetic effect, "only the
German bands" in all the party parades
ard torchlight professions. Yet he was
unable to recall a single appointment Of
an Irishman to place by the present Adj
ministration. "The young men who had
paraded night after night and carried
torches and whooped it up for Cleveland
and Hendricks, had waited and waited
for appointments until hope deferred

mournfully adjourned

THE idea of Chinese laborers Striking
is not novel. They have frequently re-
VOTED against terms of employment But
San Francisco is just now experiencing the
! sensation of a coolie" strike against the
employment with them of Caucasians.
This is wholly a new phase of the Chinese
incursion into our civilization. The China
man now proposes to dictate to employers
whom they may and whom they shall
not hire to operate their factories. In this
the Mongolian is fortified by presidents
established by whites. 1t is evident that
he observes the processes the Anglo-Saxon
employs to attain ends, and proposes to
conform to and benefit by similar lines of
action. But he willsfnd that by such
adoption of civilized methods he only

The Albany Law Journal, among the
leading law periodicals of the world, and
notably so for its calm critical character,
pronounces Judge T. B. Netherlands mon
ograph on the Injustice of New Trials" a
striking article 1t finds force in the rem
edy proposed by Judge Mcfarland to put
the whole case into the record on appeal
and let the appellate Court decide, not as
to the character of some intermediate
movement of the lower Court merely, but
whether the final Judgment, upon a broad
view of the whole case, was right or wrong.
If wrong, the Court should order the right
judgment entered. At the time the arti-
Gle appeared in the Overland Monthly we
took occasion to express the favOrableness
with which its suggestions impressed us.
Mature thought has convinced us of its
rightness and the practicableness of the
suggestions made for correcting the abuses
of new trials If the thoughtfulness OF
Judge Mcfarland shall result in radical
reform in the direction indicated, he will
have accomplished for his fellow men a
vast measure of good.

yet, in the same breath, it indorses re-
marks that indicate the sense Of the COM
mittee to be that the Administration
should reward personal ambition in one
class of cases at least-those of the Irish
who want but can't get place, and the
"boys" who carried torches and went
home hearse nightly last fall. If the
Democratic committees generally will pat
tern after that in San Francisco, Republic
cans will find small difficulty in conquer
ing a victory next fall in this State.

THE MCCARTHY-LEAKE LIBEL SUIT.-The
Dixon Tribune says:
After months and months of expensive
and vexatious delay, the counsel for the
prosecution in the Leake- Mccarthy libel
case moved to dismiss the case and the
motion was promptly granted. 1t has been
a farce from the beginning. Mccarthy
never intended it should come to trial He
had but one object in view. His aim was
to annoy and harrass the editor of the Trib-
me, and make it as expensive for him as
possible. After the case had progressed so
far that the issue must be met Mccarthy
absented himself and his counsel sought
for another delay. This Judge Wilson
promptly refused, saying in substance that
Mccarthy knew the case had been set for
trial, and that it was his duty to be present.
Now that the editor of the Tribune has
been vindicated, and Mccarthy politically
buried, beyond all danger of resurrection,
we dismiss him as unworthy of further no.
tice, promising our readers that unless
some new and unforeseen complications
should arise, his name shall never again
appear in the columns of the Tribune.
