In the case of the people VS.. Frank
Tidwell, for grand larceny, his charge
being of having stolen forty head of
cattle, went to trial yesterday morning,
Sutherland and Son being the attorneys
for defendant. Samuel Clements, main
wltnessfor prosecution, was called sworn
and took his seat in the W tness chair.
He, Clements" is now serving a six
years sentence in the Pen for grand
larceny, and being questioned by Prose
cutting Attorney Varian what he knew
OF the case made an appeal to the court
to be allowed a few remarks. His
Honor replied to him telling him that
no remarks from him was at all neces-
sary but to go ahead and answer ques-
tons given him by Dir. Varian, when
he then and there fatty refused to
testify and absolutely defied the Court
The unmitigated amount of gall
that Clements seemed TO carry i'll stock
made peculiar impression on the Court
and furnished good laugh for the spec
tators. His Honor expressed himself
sorry that Clements was SO placed
that he could not be punished for con-
tempt of court, and assured him that
was it in his power to reach him, he
would certainly give him full benefit.
The court being bafied, witness was ex-
cused with the suggestion from Mr..
Varian that he be sent back to his
winter quarters. He, Clements, on
leaving the stand, said to the Court that
he hoped he would not again be dis
turbed by being called into Court, and
left the room with q grin of defiance,
while the defendant drew long breath
of relief. The jury, without leaving
their seats, returned verdict OF not
guilty.

THE RIVER AND HARBOR BILL.

Says the Alta: "A strong raid is gather
ing for the support of extravagant appro-
priations in the coming session of Con-
gress. Combinations are forming for the
appropriation of enormous sums in the
river and harbor bill" And therein lies
the menace to the scheme to improve the
Sacramento river, and save it from utter
destruction. The danger is that when it
is admitted that given sum should be
allowed for new surveys and the applica-
ton of remedies to the disease of the river,
that every six-by-nine Congressman will
Jump up and declare that there is equal
need for Pin Hook creek and Squat Ham
run in his district being improved, and
that he will fight the bill unless his pet
scheme is tagged on. So the thing will go
around, and when the river and harbor
bill comes back to the House for final
consideration it will be found so "ridden y
that It's passage viii be well nigh impossi,
bic. Such has been the history of all
| river anu naTDOF Oils Slice the country
began. None have got through without
carrying in the skirts of the Act host
of schemes intended only to advance Tho
ambitions of dwarf Congressman. Out o
this fact grows the stigma that attaches t.
the very name of the bill, and SO it is tina
river and harbor measure has become
, the synonym for thieving bill Surely
Congress ought to be able to devise some
method by which the wheat and the chat

The people of Tacoma have issued an
address to the people of the country that
puts somewhat different face upon the
matter of the expulsion of the Chinese
from that place, 1t is signed by so many
leading citizens, officials and business men
that no doubt of its correctness can be en-
tertained. 1t appears that no violence
whatever was done to any Cinnamon. Not
finger was lifted to harm them. No
particle of violence was employed to eject
them. The citizens offered to buy all the
property of the Chinese, and a price was
agreed upon by the latter, but they with
| drew their agreement on representation OF
their agents that they could recover larger
values from the Government of the United
States. The Tacomans admit that they
told the Chinese that they must 60 and
that they meant it. But they deny that
they ever contemplated maltreating the
obnoxious class. The Chinese were fur
nished food, and transportation for them
selves and goods to the nearest point o
final departure. The whole thing wa
done orderly-that is, without rioting o
anger or inhumanity. The people alleg
that it was done because of nuisances ant
ofenses by the Chinese in their midst
which were intolerable, and that the,
could not abate under the laws. There ar
always two sides two every story. That G
the Chinese of Tacoma proves no exception
It does not remove the illegality of tn
proceedings of the whites nor the fact tina
they did conspire and agree together t
force the Chinese to evaeuate the plac,
but it does remove from them the charg
of inhumanity and brutal conduct.

THE EASTERN WAR,

The Servian-Bulgaria war has opened.
1t is interesting, in that the attack
ing party, King Milan, does not ex-
pect to continue the conflict to con-
quest. He certainly anticipated the
interference of the Porte, in which case he
would have had little or nothing to gain
by his declaration of hostilities No one
believes that Milan would have ventured
upon his campaign without the secret
backing Of the European powers. He must
therefore expect to be compensated by
them for all the war costs him. The idea
of his state engaging in war without the
connivance of the powers is absurd Rus
STA, behind the Servian movement, has one
end to attain, and that is to advance her
lines further toward the Balkans. She can
foster this scheme in no better way at pres
ent than by setting Servia upon Bulgaria,
and so involving the states, so that she can
seize upon the opportunity to advance her
own schemes. She desired to cripple Bull
garia in order to devour her, and she will
not hesitate to do likewise to the other
agency that is playing into her hands 1t
is difficult for readers, who have not kept
themselves fresh by constant inquiry into
the Eastern question complications, to un-
derstand why Servia should go to war at
all Indeed, this whole matter is an in
volved one, and capable of a great number
of interpretations and theories. The most
recent, and by all odds the clearest state
menl Of the question up to 1881, Will be
found in Wilhelm Muller's D." Political His
tory of Recent Times" Therein is dis
closed the genesis of the issues between the
powers, the conflicts and their settlement
to that date. Since that period the
miliar to the general reader. It canno
be satisfactorily set forth now, but may b.
dismissed with the statement that it ha
its springs in the unquenchable desire Q
Russia to pluck Constantinople from tn
Turk, and in the jealous fears of Englan
and Germany that such a catastrophe ma,
happen. The Slav States are barrier
to the progress of Russian ambition, an
she viii hesitate at no scheming to brea
them down and remove them from he
path.
We have no idea that the war is to b
one of considerable length. The force
Engaged are not numerically great, nor IL
they on either side properly armed or off
cered. The great powers do not propose
permit the conflict to continue any long,
than suits their selfish purposes, when the
Sgill call halt and proceed to divit
the spoils, and which means the fu
ther subordination of the indepen,
ency of the contestants to schem
of Austria and Russia, limited only
the influence that England and German
may bring to bear. Since the days wh'
Bulgaria was an empire, and her GA
dictated terms to Europe, she has suffer,
conquest, spoliation and humiliation, uni
to-day the very state that rises in arr
against the remnant OF authority left h
by the Russ and the Turk is a carving fro
her own territory In the new deal tn

nifty organizations in small districts, to
suppress fires in their incipiency. We
learn from the article in question, that
such organizations are in successful opera
ton in many places. The plan is that of or
ganizing the men, women and children OF,
say, two, three or four city blocks into
companies for mutual protection. They
constitute society that meets about once
a month, and compares notes and receives
reports from the members. The persons
in such society keep fire-buckets ready in
each house, have perhaps a small portable
pump belonging TO the society, learn how
to turn in a fire-alarm, have ladders at
convenient points-furnished them by the
city-have now and then fire-extinguish-
ers at hand, and sometimes lot of hand
grenades ready for use. They have specific
duties to perform, and thus there is
System" at once, SO soon as a fire breaks
out Rewards are given for speedy alarms,
and rewards also for fires suppressed with
out general alarms being sounded 1t has
been found after careful inquiry that in
given period of months where the system
did not prevail, seven out of ten fires dis
covered, and ultimately needing the fire
department to control, could have been
suppressed without general alarm, had there
been local organization to have reared a
ladder, or have applied few buckets Of
water But in districts where the local
| organizations exist, TO only about two fires
in ten are the regular fire departments
summoned. 1t is stated on the authority
of old firemen, that the majority of fires
are viewed by helpless and unhelping peo-
Pile, until the arrival of the fire depart
ment. Only recently in this city, crowd
of half hundred people coolly watched
the progress of an incipient fire in store
on K street, which at the outset could have
been put out with half dozen buckets OF
water, but no one in the crowd had any
other thought THAI of awaiting the arrival
of the department men and fire engines.
In very many cases the wrong numbers
are turned in, because there is lack of in
formation how to send the alarm, and from
what point. The district system, it is
shown, works well, especially in small
cities, but there is no reason why it should
not apply in large ones In itself it in
duces the caution, the lack of which the
Eromiaer laments. The subject is worthy
the attention of City Fire Boards and oil
Underwriters, and of householders, es.
pecially as the system tends to lessen rates
of insurance.
