DAMAGE TO THE WHEAT CEoP-We
have talked with great number of farm
ers during the past week, and it is surpris-
ing to note the wide difference of opinion
that exists in regard to the extent of the
damage to the wheat crop by the north
wind. Some estimate the loss as high as
thirty per cent, but majority are of the
opinion that, taken as a whole, the loss
will not exceed ten per cent. This esti-
mate is regarded as very nearly correct by
W. H. Hill, an insurance agent who has
travelled extensively throughout the county
and whose line of business has led him to
observe very closely. There are a number
of instances, however, in which the loss
has been fully one-half s. r. Bennipg-
hof7s crop did not yield more than four
sacks to the acre. Fred. Schmidts crop
was so badly shelled that for some time it
was an open question whether or not il
would pay to harvest it, ]. w. McFadyen
had a field of fifty acres in which the loss
was probably fifty per cent In other
cases, the loss was so trifling as 10 be

The kidneys exercise most important
functions. which are so wearisome that
they tax to the utmost the strength and en-
durance of these busy little organs Every
breath, every pulsation of the heart, every
movement of limb, every thought makes
waste and necessiates the development of
new atoms. The used up particles in the
blood are sifted from it and dissolved in a
watery fluid by the kidneys, which then
discharge this fluid into the bladder. z

This is the case when the kidneys become
inactive. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, by
restoring their activity, not only keeps open
most important outlet for impurities,
but prevents diseases of the kidneys them

SENATOR sTANFoRD,s TRAINER
y Surprise at the Speed of Pacific Coast
Colts Predicted.


Harry Woodthorpe, the active young
jockey who won wealth and reputation
some years ago as the trainer for Lucky
Baldwin of Lucky b., Efolie McCarty and
| Gano, arrived in the city yesterday from
Nevada. He was en- route for Stanford s
| Palo Alto ranch, where he has been en-
gagged to fit the new lot of colts for the fall
races. A Call reporter met the young
driver for a moment between trains, and
| the latter touched briefly on his exploits
recently at the Eastern races with Bud
Doble and other celebrities. He said he
had picked up a good many points, and did
not propose to forget any of them. Wood
| thorpe is bright, lithe-looking man OF %.
| He was born in San Francisco and Is per-
| baps the best rider On the coast, though he
| himself accords that honor to Patsy Duffy,
| Woodthorpe now weighs lis pounds, bat
| said he would at once go into the sweatboX
and bring himself down to 105, the neces-
sary point for riding the Stanford 2-year-
olds. He has ridden for Senator Stanford
before, having helped to get the best speed
out of Freeman, Fortress, Satinette and
Satinella in previous races. AT the last
State Fair also be rode Garfield and Inch
back for Harris Slower.
In 1881 Woodthorpe made some rafting
time at Stockton in the noted novelty race,
when he rode Clara D. the first quarter in
:23, the half mile in :49l, and the mile in
l:42l, winning 500 at each quarter pole. In
1879 he put John Cardinell's Title c.
around the Oakland halfmile ring at a
speed never before nor since eq1alled there.
In mentioning these races, he said he ex-
pected to do vastly better this fall than
ever before. He had not yet seen the Stan
ford colts, but had no doubt from what
he had heard that there was good deal of
speed in them, and he proposed to bring it
out. 1t was his opinion that Pacific coast
horsemen would this fall be surprised at
their speed, for the English dams of the
colts, which Senator Stanford brought over
from Liverpool over year since, were of
the most superior speed and mettle in
England One of the colts. he said, had
already made q half mile in IS seconds, and
that, too. with very little training.
Woodthorpe has contracted with Super
intendent WEIGH, of the running horse de-
partment of the Palo Alto ranch, 10 give
his exclusive attention to these colts for a
year. He will ride about dozen of them
al the ranch during the next few weeks
and the two or three that develop the most
speed will be kept cut for the fall races in
the various towns and cities Of the Califor-
MIA circuit.-CaH, Jla3c 30th

Nh. MORRISON having been sent to the
wall with his tariff bill, Mr.. Randall nov
comes to the surface with savior Act that
is at once to rescue the industries of the
country, crafty the free-traders and
tickle the greed of the tobacco-raisers
of the South. He proposes no wholesale
remedies for the inconsistencies of the
present schedules, but hopes to trim and
top off and prune and get the tariff vine
yard into something of better shape. But
it won't do. Democratic deficiencies in
the expense bill of the Government for
1856 are not to be condoned by any
spasmodic efforts at the flag end of scs-
sion to gain some capital by proposition
to do in few days what Mr. Randall
knows could not be accomplished III
months.

Some criticism has been made upon our
California delegation in Congress from the
fact that the members permitted the vote
by which 81 800 was added to the appropri-
alton for enforcing the Chinese Restriction
Act to be reconsidered by consent. The
fact is. that if any objection to such recon-
sideration had been made, Randall would
only have had to request one of his
Democratic followers who had voted for
the bill to move its reconsideration, after
due notice given, and the vote by which
the additional $500 was finally voted
down shows that it would have been re-
considered, upon motion, if Randall so de-
sired. Our Congressman, no doubt,
thought. therefore, that by avoiding antag
onism in bringing it again before the
House, they might, on the strength of the
speeches they had just made, secure its re-
adoption, but they failed to have votes
enough. One of the votes necessary to Sc
cure its adoption was Mr.. Henley's; but
the member from Mexico Joined the oppo-
sl1on, which killed the amendment.
One of the most successful WAYS at the
present time, to secure the spreading of
desirable information concerning Califor-
mia throughout the East, is BY procuring
| the publication of such data in the East
ern papers. This can be very easily and
| effectively accomplished, as follows: There
are persons residing in every locality in
| this State who can write interesting letters
! about the resources and climate of Califor-
nia, together with the opportunities offered
TO settlers, and by sending such letters to
the papers where they formerly resided
at the East, will be gladly accepted and
published. Such letters will also be far
more effective than advertisements or pro-
lpiscuous publications in pamphlet or other
form. Letters thus written should not
deal in the wonders of California, but

THERE is no denying" as we yesterday
remarked that there is a controlling senti-
ment that excuses one kind Of murder
that which works expiation for the ruin
of 4 wife, daughter or sister. We are not
disposed to quarrel with that sentiment
now, or to say that it is not in accord with
a chiyalrous spirit, or that it does not act
in degree as preventive OF assault
upon female virtue. But the very exist
ence of the sentiment ought to bring, and
presently win bring, men to reason with
themselves as to whether it advances us
or turns us back upon the path OF civiliza-
ton. Whether its approval will not grow
into a license that viii make the law of
the pistol subversive of other codes than
those against murder. Whether, indeed,
this expanding sentiment does not threaten
the stability of social order And this
reasoning may bring the conviction that
viii ripen into law, that there ought to be
more effective statutes to punish the Sc
Queer and tradueer, and to hold in check
those men who prey upon female virtue.

THE RESULTS.

1t is remarked by the Albany Journal
as significant that practically none of the
labor strikes of the past year have been
successful. There have been, we believe,
one or two CASES where a strike was averted
by the yielding of the employer, and in
San Francisco the cooks and walters
struck and Won, but it was against an as
sault upon their honesty and manhood.
In the great Southwestern strike the wage
winners failed; in the New York street
railroad strikes they were defeated save in
one respect, where an hour less of labor
was conceded after interposition by the
Railroad Commission in behalf of the
workers. In Chicago and ST. Louis all the
strikes failed, as also that in Troy of the
stoye-makers, and that other of the collar
makers, in which women joined The
real effect has been to organize capital for
resistance to strikes. And thus labor is
learning that it can do more, as Mr. Pow
derby has advised, by organization and
calm protest against wrongs, and by the
invocation of arbitration, than by any
other methods. Thus far, certainly the
strike has not proved to be nearly so dam
aging to capital as to labor.
