WELL APPROVED.

The Supervisors Of San Francisco have
done the right thing in approving the APP
peal of the valley to the Federal authori-

river from the grasp of the hydraulic
mining interests. 1t is action that should
have been taken long ago. But it is
cause for congratulation that the official
ruling Board of the metropolis has at last
put its hand into that of the valley and
pledged ITSELF its friend in this struggle

USEFULNESS OF ART EDUCATION

There is good deal of popular error re-
garding the scope of an Art School The
idea is altogether too prevalent that in
Art Schools only that is taught which re-
lates to the ornamental, and the Injuries
of life. Nothing can be more erroneous.
The study of the rules of art and their
application have almost as large place
in the economy of life as those of me-

THE Current speaking of the unhappy
life of the late King Alfonso, and the still
more unhappy line from which he de-
scended, speaks of the benefits of his reign
also, and in conclusion thus sententiously
sums up the whole matter: 1t is pity
that he is dead; and what a pity It's that
it is pity" There is both philosophy
and wit in this.

DANGEROUS sEAr.-we extract the a

nexed from the Chico Chronicle
Four boxes of giant powder, containing
1000 pounds, intended for blasting in a
mine, were on the sidewalk in front of the
Union Hotel. Rather dangerous things
Last night young man was engaged in a
conversation with a number of friends,
when he took a seat upon one of the cases.
His talk became very spirited, and he ham
mered the boxes vigorously with his fists
His companions, who knew the contents
of the boxes, hurriedly withdrew from the
scene, and when he learned their reason
for going he tainted and had TO be carried
home on shutter.

THE COMING Boar RAcE.-The Marys-
Vile Appe1l of December 18th saws:


Preparations are going on for the great
rowing race from this place to Sacramento,
next Monday. The contestants are taking
daily exercise in preparation for the event,
and the contest viii assuredly take place
unless something unforeseen happens to
prevent. Both parties are confident of
winning, end there will be no foolishness
in the contest. We were shown a neat
rowing costume of silk, which was pre-
sented to one of the contestants, to be worn
on that occasion. but it is not certain that it
will be worn in the race. 1t is a little too
fine to be used in such hard work. The
course is long and hard one. and the con-
testants will have no time or inclination to
put ON fancy airs. The day originally set
vas Monday next, but as the time is rather
short for preparation it NAV be deferred a
few days, but not many. McCrate and Nc
Cabe have secured boat to their liking.
Chambers and Bennett have selected one
but it is not exactly what they would like
ard if one can be found to suit better a
change in the selection Will be made.

THE San Francisco Bulletin, referring to
the immigration problem, says that there
is a growing sentiment to put up the bars
against indiscriminate immigration to this
country. This is true, and it is to be
hoped that the sentiment viii expand, that
admission to American privileges is not
an irrevocable grant The false sentiment
that has prevailed so largely in New
England, that the refugees of all nations
and the scum of all peoples have the right
of asylum in the United States
is on the wane. The truth is
that the time was long since at
hand when the bars should have been put
up, and when they are finally placed there
will follow the limitation of the rights of
aliens in our midst Those who share our
benefits should bear portion of our bur-
dens, As it now is, aside from the exalted
privilege of casting a vote as our party
bosses dictate, it is more comfortable
profitable and generally desirable to be an
alien than citizen.

THE Oakland Times warmly eommendS
this expression of the Sacramento citizens
meeting on the Chinese:

THE Oakland Times warmly commends
this expression of the Sacramento citizens
meeting on the Chinese:
| That they neither build houses, encourage the
public school system arm for the defense of the
Government, sustain the institutions or forms of
the American civilization, aSsimilate with our
| people, share the burdens of Government, nor
contribute to the development of the country or
the upbuilding of strong, prosperous, intelligent
and happy communities.
1t says that these words embrace the sum
and substance of the cause of the COM
plant against the presence of the Chinese
among us and adds:
These are the cardinal objections to the Chi
| nese element Most Others offered we regard as
! trivial. That is, they amount to a confession
that our civilization cannot master theirs. We
talk of their vices. Had we not better first rid
ourselves of vices. before we declare against
| the vices of the Chinese? Are we not
! in many things setting up distinc-
| ton without q difference? To be sure,
| they smoke opium, but does not our
| own people drink whisky? And are not the
| consequences OF our vice as dangerous to the
| individual as theirs? And again, is it not more
| dangerous to the public than theirs? Let us
place our objection to the Chinese on
| the highest and most tenable ground, and
| that is, that they are, exhausting our
substance; by method meth that REQUIRES
| ly ruinOuS to every enterprise in which white
man in California may engage. Such an OBJ
lection will be sanctioned and Endorsed by
all of the American people. But when we mix
| it up with forty others, some of which are
doubtful and some untenable, we submit
whether it does not weaken our cause and put
off the day when the strong arm of the law
shall sweep the evil from our shores.
There is wisdom as well as error in these
comments, but there is more wisdom
than error. The truth is, that we have
been trying too much and too long to dis
gust our Eastern friends, rather than to
convince them of the evils of unrestricted
Chinese immigration.

DUNS's SUBTERFUGE.-The San Francisco
Post of December 18th saws:

DUNS's SUBTERFUGE.-The San Francisco
Post of December 18th says:
1t is stated positively by the officials at
the railroad office that they have possession
of the receipt of Judge A. L. Rhodes, as at
torney for San Mateo for S13.50 which
covers the full amount of all moneys
claimed by the State Controller to be due
that county from the railroad, on account
of taxes, penalties and fees. The County
Auditor of san Mateo acknowledges that he
received the money. and the County Treas
urer admits having the money in his pos
session. Yet, when reporter asked Mr.
Dunn, who was in town yesterday, if this
was a correct statement of the facts he re-
piled strongly " Mo- that the S13. sos of
which mention was made, was loaned by
the railroad company to Rhodes & Bar
stow, and by them loaned to San Mateo
county. Rhodes & Barstow, he asserted,
hold the obligation of the county for that
money in the shape of note. Deputy
Attorney General T.. W Marshall stigma
ties this as mere subterfuge of Dunn's ;
that he and every one else knew that all
the money had been paid, and that the
railroad company had the receipts for it.

general impression that not much testi-
