THE HoP MARKET.-The st. Helena Sta.
has the following: THE hop market in
California to-day presents a more gloomy
aspect than does the wine industry or any
other interest. AT ruling prices hops will
not pay the expense of gathering Around
6t. Helena, in common with the entire
coast, there is not more than half crop,
and in many yards the crop falls even under
that. The low prices are caused by heavy
yields in the East and in England. We
hear OF two or three of our leading hop
men who will not gather their hops at all
this year, but let them remain on the vines.
other interests TO back them, will invest a
little money in gathering the crop and tax
ing the chances on probable rise in prices
The chances are that the hop mems calam-
lty this year will result in good prices next
as the short crop on this coast and the fact
that it will not be gathered, will certainly
cause shortage in the market" G.. w
Hubbard, of Tustin City, California. who
perhaps is as well posted upon this subject
as any other man in the State, his business
being that OF a travelling purchaser of hops,
says that the market, though bad enough,
Is not quite so bad as the Star pnts it. He
says the late rains have greatly damaged
the hop crop throughout the East. and il is
now thought that the California growers
will realize something on their crops as
hops raised in this State are of superior
quality, and will bring much better prices
than those raised East this season. The
California crop is number one, and the
brewers are going to go where they can get
the best article. The California hop-raiser
is not going to make fortune out of this
years crop, but he predicted that thew
would ali get out with whole hide

SCARCITY OF sr1vEn.-The winnemucc.

tNeV.J oAteF Stdte says
Superintendent McCurdy, of the Para
disc Valley Mining Company, sent to San
Francisco recently for $1,000 in silver for
change. Such is the scarcity of silver that
every dollar of it would have been taken in
the village of Paradise, in exchange for
gold, before il reached the mine. There il
not town or mining camp in Nevada in
which silver is not comparatively scarcer
than gold. If the Secretary of the Treas
ury could be made to understand this fact
he might possibly be prevailed upon to paw
a part of the salaries due Federal officials,
and the bills OF Government contractors,
IN silver, and thus get enough of that coin
in circulation to meet the requirements Of
the public.

THE sIDE-sHoW NUISANCE.

The side-shows at fairs are becoming
absolute nuisances. There is no invention,
no ingenuity, no novelty about them. We
have had occasion to say this before, and to
warn the public against them. The concerns
that call the people into these Z shows
are clumsy, as a rule, without interest to
anyone with average intelligence or infor-
nation. Big snakes and big women, living
skeletons and dwarfs, the threelegged calf
and the twO-headed bullock, and the rooster
with no head at all, the juggler and the
clown and the giant-the same old stories,
the same old exhibition that delighted or
amazed pumpkins two centuries ago. WHY
these miserable attempts to anause should
survive when about all else that was
worthless in the past and gone centuries
has been left behind us, is one of the mod
ern marTels. We ought to have outgrown
such things as pink-eyed women, Supplied
boas, stuffed crocodiies monkeys and or.
gans, and all the other nuisances that
claim the money Of the people. The side
showmen cart good deal of money out of
the country and give very little in return
for 1t. A general disposition TO frown
down these fellows, and to refuse them cur
dimes, would soon put an end to the whole
lot But probably as long as there are
curious people, and ignorant people, and
people who have the marvellous .snduly de-
Veioped, and people who believe half the
story shouted at them from the side-show
doorway, these itinerant nuisanees VIII be
supported by public that enjoys the SEN
sation of being humbugged.

fact whether the Republican party will re-
