REMARKABLE MISREPRESENTATION.

All legitimate means to advertise the
advantages of California are to be APP
proved. But here is the Resources of
California, a paper exclusively devoted
to presenting the claims of this State to
the people of the East, printing large
picture drawn and cut for foreign sec
ton, and never intended for any part of
California, but emitting it "A Snow
storm in Northern California" 1t repre-
sents q farm scene with haystack covered
with snow, and the stock of the "ranch y
taking shelter under its lee. The snow
and sleet are driving thick and fast. the
farmer and his aid. mufiled and shivering,
are succoring the sheep and cattle, while
the farm-houses, with steep roofs, are
pictured as laden with snow. 1t is a
cherries picture, and calculated to convey
to the behslder the idea that our climate
is of the same nature as that of New Eng
land. Without this Interpretation the
publication of the picture would be pur-
poseless.
Now the Resources Of Cal3ornia knows
the picture is false, that it is a libel in
every sense of the word. 1t knows that
the cut as printed is simple and una
dalterated falsehood, and can have but one
efiec., to give currency to misrepresenta
ton. In the same number, but on differ
ent page, is an article on The Climate of
California but in it not one word of
reference to the picture. 1t does, how
ever, speak of snow falling in the higher
altitude of the Sierras, and Of mining
camps being acknowledgement. 1t tells the
reader that Sacramento has mean tenn
perature Of $50 for the year, ard that the

VOTE "YES.n

Vote eyes" for the five cents tax on a
hundred of assessed values, to-day.
Why? Because, if we are to share in
the benefits of the "boom" now making
for California, we must place the proofs of
the desirability of our section before the
strangers and make the evidences of their
senses minister to our gain, by establishing
near the depot permanent exhibition of
Central and northern California products.
The heavy taxpayers favor it. They
know it to be wise investment. Smaller
taxpayers have just as much to gain-even
more. On an assessed value of $500 it is
but % cents, on 81 900 but so cents. Is it
possible to aid the boon" more economi-
cally? Certainly not.
The immigration work has thus far
fallen upon resident property holders The
nonresident has escaped all burden, but
in the benefits we seek he will share
equally. Why, then, should not he be
made to contribute?
A San Francisco paper on Saturday
printed for circulation abroad a large pic
ture, entitled "a snow-storm in north
ern California" 1t represents a farm with
stacks of hay covered with snow; the
farmer and his assistant shivering, though
clad in fIlrs; the stock of the farm seeking
shelter from the falling sIeet; the steep
rooted houses groaning beneath impacted
burdens of snow. This is one of the means
employed to belle this section 1t is an
infamous assault, fiction that can find no
palliation whatever. Yet that "cut" will
be widely distributed all over the East and
along all the lines of railways entering the
State.
How can we better give the lie to such
Infamous misrepresentation than by plac-
ing our products of midwinter and mid
summer alike to the view of every person
who lands in California by the Central
rail route, or who returns by that line.
This we can do by an exhibition room that
all travellers passing through or visiting
the city cannot avoid seeing.
The people of southern California have
for years labored in Immigration work,
and often with little respect for the truth.
They have reaped rewards, the story of
which reads like fairy tale.
Let no shortsighted policy defeat the
proposition submitted to-day 1t is not
scheme to give a spot sum to any one; only
an expression to justify the Trustees in
aiding immigration work as indicated, with
auditing power over every dollar applied.
The defeat of the proposition to-day
would be taken to express the non-desire
of this people to have values advanced,
vacant lands occupied, producers and con-
sumers multiplied, new capital brought in,
more homes built, taxation lessened and
prosperity enhanced. Certainly the people
viii never consent to such a verdict being
entered. Certainly they will not say to
the few who have labored so well and
efectually thus far for Central and north
ern California, eve do not approve your
work; we will not second your efforts; your
labors are not deemed essential to the
community's well being"

Another Robbery of the OroviIle- Quincy
Stage.

Another Robbery of the OroviIle- Quincy
Stage.
ORovILLE, December 5th.-This section
seems to be coming into favor with high
waymen in which to conduct their bust
ness. 1t was but recently that the stage
running between this place and Quincy was
robbed, and now comes a repetition of the
act. Yesterday afternoon the stage was
again stopped near Miners ranch, by two
masked men, armed with shotguns. They
took Wells Fargo & Co.'S box, broke the
lock, distracted the contents and returned
the box. They also took the mailbag, cut
it open, distracted one registered letter, and
left the balance. They went through the
driver, and got package of coin given him
by George Schaw on the road for shipment.
The amount it contained is not known.
From n. D. Plum, who was the only PES
senger aboard, they took Sc, but left him
his watch. The amount of treasure in the
box is not known, butitis supposed to have
been of small value, as the messenger went
the other way, via Reno, this trip. Officers
are in pursuit of the highwaymen.

BENSON, December 5th.-Much satisfac-

hopes for the support of Speaker Carlisle,

successful our agricultural future is GER

THE LOCAL ELECTION

In the right sense political consideration
should not enter into school elections,
but at present choice of school boards is
made only through party nominations;
therefore Republicans have a duty to do,
and that is to see that their ticket is sue
cessful in to-day's election. The nominees
command respect for intelligence, ability
and goood citizenship, and they should be
elected. 1t is thoroughly good ticket,
and has seldom, if ever, been surpassed.
Three of the nominees have had broad ex-
perience in educational matters. In such
Directors as the Republican ticket pro-
poses, the people can safely repose the
great trust of our school system.

GENERAL VoN MoLTKE's speech in the
Reichstag was very significant. He GER
tainly expressed the views of the Govern
ment and without reserve. He declared
that need exists for Germany to arm be-
cause all her neighbors are putting on their
armor. That Germany entertains some
fear of France was plainly indicated in the
expression that in the latter public opin-
ion demands the restoration Of the PROV
inces of Alsace and Lorraine, and that
Germany will never yield them. General
Schellendorff, representing the War port
folio, followed in declaration that even
the strengthening of the army would not
insure preservation Of the peace, since
France is persistent in augumenting her
military arm. From all which there is
justification for believing that Germany
expects and rather prefers European war,
notwithstanding the declarations that she
will do her utmost to maintain the peace
that is to say, she will have peace elf she
has to fight for it.p

URGING FRUIT CULTURAL T. Hatch,
Of Suisun, who has over 500 acres of fruit
in bearing, is an enthusiast on the subject
of fruit, and well he may be, for it has
made him rich. He is urging others to do
likewise. In the course of a conversation
he said that his wife had asked him why
he wanted other people to plant fruit trees,
and thus come in competition with him.
He told her it was selfshness that made
him urge his neighbors to plant trees and
vines. He wanted to create market Mr..
Hatch thinks that the fruit business of Cali
fornia must improve for many years. A
train of ten cars of fruit looks big going
out every day, but suppose there were fifty
or a hundred cars started out, and as the
train pulled through the county from north
TO south and east to west, it would drop
one here and there until they would soon
all be gone. A great deal of fruit raised
here would get people to depending OIL it,
and would make a market oinsa Sun.

DIED OF BROKEN HEARr.-Joseph
Perrin lost a fine young Ayrshire cow a
few days ago under peculiar circumstances.
The COW, which was three years old, had
her first calf, for which it manifested more
than ordinary affection. When the calf
was three months old it was taken away
from the mother and sent to the butcher
block, but from the moment of separation
the cow refused to eat, although food was
constantly accessible to her. The animal
continued to evince great mental distress,
bawling almost constantly for several days
and nights, and finally lay down and died,
although being in excellent condition and
showing no symptoms Of disease. The
animal grieved itself TO death for the loss
of its calf. Mr.. Perrin says in his long ex-
perience with cattle he never knew or beard
of a similar case Grass Valley onion.
