WE THROW THE LAND IN.

When the San Francisco Bulletin saws
that land is higher here than in the West
region because its capabilities are greater,
and that with these included in the esti-
mate it is the cheapest of land, it SAYS the
right thing. What We sell in California
is not land alone, but climate on top of it.
Why, this land is no better than
some | have in Branch county, Mich
igan," exclaimed recent visitor, "yet
you ask twice the price at which | value
mine" And his California friend replied
Very true. Suppose put on top of your
land twelve months of soil working season;
suppose | take off of it five months of
snow and ice and freezing cold suppose l
make grow upon it flowers for your
breakfast-table for every morning of
the round year; suppose | guarantee
that your Branch country farm shall grow
figs, oranges, almonds, dates, wheat, lem
ons, walnuts, all berries, grapes, vegetables
in every month of the twelve of the wear
four crops of alfalfa, peaches, apples, april
cots, pears, plums, pomegranates, nee
tarines suppose 1 guarantee that
your farm just outside of
Colandler, Mich, shall not reduce you to
the scraping of axehelves by the chimney
corner on long winter nights, nor the hous-
ing of stock in warm barns, nor the wrap
ping mp of young increase to save them from
being freezing to death suppose" 'Stop,
that will do; what has that got to do with
it?' "Well, what will your land in Miehi-
gan be worth with these guarantees? ?"
Three times as much as you ask for this
bit Of hillside and bottom and table land
here in Placer county" 'Ah, then, my
land is too cheap by two-thirds for these
are the guarantees on top of my land, and
that cannot attach to yours. NY friend,
we sell climate in California and throw in
the land.'

THE FISHERY QUESTION

Recently, and at much length, we gave
a complete history of the fishery treaties
between our Government and that of the
Dominion of Canada. The present dis
pute is assuming daily more and more Of
importance, vessels ON both sides have
been seized, and the issues are now fully
joined. 1t is therefore of profit to restate
the case briefly. By the treaty of 1918
American fishing vessels were admitted to
beyond our east coast, for the purposes of
shelter, TO procure food wood and water,
to dry fish and nets, and for no other pur-
poses. BY the treaty of 1874 these privi-
liges were extended, and the convention
was also broadened into a reciprocity
treaty as to oil and fish passing free of
duty. This latter treaty is now at an end
by our notice of desire to recede from it.
We claim that this rehabilitates the old
status under which we had community
right in Atlantic fishing waters, and that
the treaty of 1918 was not in the nature
OF a concession, but was simply an express
sion of hospitality. That is to say, we
claim that under the recognition of our
independence by England in 1888, there
was established a partition as to fishing
waters, and that there sprang up the re-
ciprocal right of vessels of each country to
enter the harbors of each country, for any
and all commercial purposes. We there
fore claim that our fishermen have the
right to enter British ports to buy bait
for use on the banks. The Canadians and
English, on the other hand, declare that
The treaty of 1918 was only suspended, and
is in force, now that the treaty of 1874 has
been vacated. That under the former
treaty the purposes for which our
fishermen might enter British ports were
specifically set forth, and that therefore
for no other purposes can we encroach
upon the hospitality of our neighbors We
wish to enter the British ports to buy bait.
and it is denied to us, and that is the
whole question in nutshell. The matter
must be settled peaceably, of course by
arbitration if need be, but at all events
without appeal to arms. The New Eng
land hot-heads who shout for revenge and
reprisal and blood are simply foolish, and
will presently be laughed out of their
mood.

MEAT FOOD.

The SdnltdT1dn, a recognized authority,
is very earnest in its advice to the people
to be even more solicitous about the meats
they eat in these cholera eras than at other
times. There should be especial care taken
to reject any meat in the slightest degree
unsound. In vegetable food unsoundness
is readily detected, but in animal food it
Is discovered only as the result of very
particular examination. When chosen
there comes i'll second essential to which
equally as close attention is invited, and
that is the cooking. Under-done meats
are more savory, and by many people
greatly preferred, but they are less whole
some than the well-done meats. Cooking
destroys certain parasites, and generally
corrects any decay. The authority cited
ADVISES householders in marketing to
keep in mind these rules: Good
meat is neither of pale pinkish
color, nor of deep purplish tint 1t has
little odor, and that not disagreeable,
thdt vi ullcoullu SIDtllS ldlnt
and cadaverous and sometimes has the odor
of medicine, especially when it is fresh
cut, and soaked for an hour or two in hot
water" Sound meat of well-fed animal
slaughtered in full health has marbled
appearance, " from the deposition of inter-
cellular fat. To the feeling it is firm and
somewhat elastic, and does not moisten the
fingers and the internal fat-that which
lines the ribs and covers the kidneys-is
hard, suety and dry" But diseased meat
is inelastic, soft and watery, and the fat
often looks like jelly or sodden parchment,
and if kept day or two water runs from
it-quite sure sign that it is bad In
cooking, we are informed, good meat
shrinks but little, and loses but little of its
weight, while bad meat shrinks up or boils
to pieces, or breaks down." The Sanitarian
insists that we should be exceedingly
watchful, with the threat of cholera at
hand, over our meat supply, and use every
precaution to prevent the possibility of its
being sent to orr tables

TIE PRISON DIRECTORY.

The Placer Republican, inclined to Join
IN the demand for the arbitrary removal of
the State Prison Directors, and the substi-
tuition Of new and untried men, neverthe-
less comes around to the exact position of
the REcoRD-UNIoN when it says: every
likely II IS not proper to discuss this uues-
ton while the present investigation is
pending, but it is necessary to keep in
mind Facts that have transpired as they
are. Public opinion does not actually de-
mand the dismissal of the Directors bnt II
docs demand that they shall conduct the
prisons so as not to injure free labor If the
law permits them, and sound LAWYERS s,v
that the law not only permits them. but
makes II Imperative upon them to do So
As we have already pointed out, the law is
competent to compel compliance with duty
without uisetting the whole management
OF the prisons. No one has vet had the
temerity to assert that frequent changes of
these Boards of " correction are beneficial

have 70 foot the bills. When the RECORD

energy and sincerity of the present Board

No Divorce After Death.

Can a dead man be divorced by law ?
This novel question has just been answered
in the negative by the English Court of
Appeal. A husband had obtained de-
cree nisi for divorce from his Wife Under
the English law it is necessary for the an
plicant to wait six months and then move
to have the nisi decree made absolute. The
petitioner in this case died before the end
of that period and his executor applied to
have the decree made absolute. The pur-
pose of the applicant was to control the dis
position of large sum of money which
had been willed to the wife of the deceased.
If his widow, she was entitled to the mon
ey; if not, 1t went to his heirs Whether
she was widow or not was question de-
pending on whether the divorce decree
could be made absolute. The appeal
Judges were unanimous in holding that the
marriage had been dissolved by death and
therefore could not be annuled by law :;
hence that the wife before the husbands
death became his widow after death Lord
Justice Bowen expressed the opinion that
man could no more be divorced after
he was dead than he could be married or
condemned to death Marriage was a union
for two lives it could not be dissolved
either by death or process of law. After it
had been dissolved in one of those WAYS
you could not dissolve it again; you could
not unite a knot which had been already
united. No doubt an Act of Parliament
might give a retrospective effect to a di o.
vorce, but the Act had not done this. The
decree nisi was not a dissolution of the
marriage. If the husband died before the
decree was made absolute he died as hus-
band, and at law his wife then became his
widow. '-NeU York Herald

THERE is boom of prosperity at San
Diego and We are glad of it up this way.
There is not a particle of jealousy felt here
in the central section, that our brethren
perity. We hold that our interests are
common, and that what benefits one part
Of the State inures in some degree to the
good of all. San Diego cannot prosper
without the influences that produce it, act
ing beyond the immediate Jurisdiction of
that place. We are glad that values are
going up in San Diego, that building is
rapid and substantial, money plentiful and
labor in demand. OF course, in "the boon"
as it is termed, of any place, there are fan
ciful prices, and the fever heat is never
maintained, but there are evidences that at
San Diego there is that material growth,
that permanency that is desirable in all of
our cities and towns. Sacramento knows
what it is to progress, and with her own
future full of promise, and her present of
congratulation that she is as favored as
there Is reason to expect, she can heartily
congratulate her fellow citizens of the far
south city that at last her day has come,
and that she bids fair to be one of the chief
cities of the coast. Her gain is ours also,
for her profit is to the benefit of all the
State.

HE TALKED TOO MUCH.
How He Failed to Marry the Old Mans
Dauohter.

An ambitious young commercial tourist
living in one of the cities on the middle
Hudson became acquainted with young
lady attending well-known seminary,
whose father is an influential citizen of one
of the Washington country towns, and is
reputed to have solid bank account.
Having progressed in his acquaintance
with the young lady so far as to seek and
receive an invitation to visit her at home
during her school vacation, he essayed to
risk the danger that might attend his re-
ception at the paternal domicile. Having
engaged the fastest trotters and the nattiest
turnout of the village liveryman, our
tourist set out.
The ride was about six miles, and after
he had journeyed about half that distance
he overlook pedestrian and inquired if he
was q on the right road to Mr.. Smiths
farm house," Receiving an affirmative
reply the drummer asked the farmer to
ride. The latter got in the buggy, and as
soon as he was seated the young man
pulled out his flask and asked his new
made friend to imbibe. 1t was declined,
and the proffered cigar elected the response
that he neither drank liquor nor smoked
nor chewed tobacco. To this the sharp
young man reioined by avowing his
belief that there never was a man but what
was addicted to some of the vices. Meeting
quired of the stranger if he knew Mr..
Smith and his standing in the community n
g Yes replied he, | know him quite
well, and think he is quite fair with his
townsmen."
He's well hooked up, amt he?"
Well, he owns one of the best farms in
the town, and he prides himself on his
stock.
He has daughter"
" Yes three of them"
We'll, l mean the one that is at school
in -? have met her, and am invited
b. her to call and spend the evening"
"Ah, is that so? She Is an xcellent
girl"
Well, she's clear mashed on me, and
intend to do my level best to marry her
and get share of the old mans money to
set me up in business. Don't you think
that bright business idea?'
Well, as | said, she is a good girl, and
one that loves her father dearly, and obeys
him in everything. You could not obtain
her hand without her fathers consent"
FL see about that. I'd give more to
obtain the daughters than the old mans
consent replied the impetuous but undis-
| corning young fellow.
At this moment they were approaching
stately farm house, and as they reached
| its front the farmer said :" live here,
and will get out, if you please"
The commercial man gently halted the
trotters, and as the old gentleman reached
the ground, he said to him: Now, how
much further is it to Mr.. Smiths ?''
Il am Mr.. Smith, sir" replied the
| farmer. sternly, and you can drive on,
for will not permit you to step on my
| premises"
