There are persons who seem to think 1t
q duty OF a local paper to make mention
OF every little movement they make, es-
pecially if the notice would in any way
rebound to their business interests, and
those who take the most pains to impress
themselves upon the attention of the To-
cal editor are too often of the class who
furnish him the least paying business.
There are those who receive benefits from
the paper to the amount of hundred
dollars in single year, who do not pay
its publisher five dollars during that time.
Within the last few years, we knew To-
cal itemizer who called on a so-called
business man each week for some time,
and asked if he had anything he would
like to have in the paper about his bust
ness. Oh yes, certainly, the business
man (so-called) had lots of items, and he
would give the local editor long string
OF locals about the variety of goods he
bad, the quality, prices, and that his store
was the best place to buy, etc, and they
srent in the paper. The business man (so-
called) was having good trade, and was
liking the local editor, and was SO glad
they had got paper In thsir town, SO
that he could tell his customers, and even
tell the people by hundreds, who were
not in the habit OF coming to his store,
what Inducements he had to offer them.
But whom the publisher presented his bill
for advertising, though it only amounted
to Q few dollars, our business man ESQ
called) opened wide his eyes and looked
He didn't know the man had any bill
inst him. He thought he was only
bunting items to fill mp his paper. and he
had told him what good bargains he
could give as matter OF news. This is
not merely an imaginary story tor an IL
1uetratiOn, but an actual fact.
OF course this business man did not
amount to much then, and don't yet. II
he had been man OF intelligence, he
never would have entertained any such
erroneous views. But a kindred spirit
may be found pervading whole business
communities. Such communities cannot
be prosperous, and such individuals will
not be eminently successful
The publisher OF newspaper expects
pome profit from his business. as does
the farmer, merchant or blacksmith; and,
like them, he expects to be Of benefit to
The community in which his paper is pub
hshed. Rut unless he is paid Tor the SER
vice he repders Others, he cannot continue
10 benefit the community very long.
The local paper is local necessity. 1t
benefits every citizen, whether he sdver-
liaes in it or not, and for this reason
,bould be subscribed for and paid for |
promptly by all. Bat especially should
ZACH individual who receives special ben
fits from it contribute to the expense OF
70 publication, and the compensation OF
b publishers. On this principle we
barge for space, as the grocer does Tor
.ofec or sugar.

RAILROAD FACILITIES. THE only diff
Guilty we have had to meet has been about
sleeping-cars. but that is all settled" said
Superintendent Fillmore, Of the Central
Pacific, when asked to-day if his companies
could carry all the expected visitors to the
G. A. Il. Encampment. The Union Pacific
has given us an idea of the trains they will
bring over and we have answered that we
will be ready to haul them as soon as mott
fed. They will come in trains of eight
| and ten sleepers, which is a pretty heavy
| load to haul. Most of them will come by
| way Of the Central Pacific The Southern
lines will bring some, of course but the
various connections of the Central are most
in favor with the tourists at this season of
| the year. When we get them out here we
can take good care of them. Our local
| facilities are excellent, and we can handle all
the excursion parties that the various Posts
| will get up. At pinch we could take as
many as 10000 in day over the northern
division of the Southern Pacific, but that,
of course, would be very severe test. and
it is not likely to be made. for the Posts
will make their trips on different days and
in varied directions" How are your ex-
tensions, the California and Oregon and the
Santa Barbara line getting along?" We
are pushing work ahead as fast as possible.
A big force of men is on both Illness r.

THE RAILROAD FoReISG AHEAp.-Pres-
ident Jones, with Engineer Palmer, was
in the city all the first part of this week,
making contracts for material to build the
Colusa and Lake road as far as Antelope
valley The Directors met here Tuesday,
and advised with Mr.. Jones by telegraph.
The consequence is that contracts have
been made for delivery of material. Six
miles of the steel rail is to come overland,
and is 10 be delivered within twenty days
alter contract which was on the 18th The
company will be able to lay this as soon as
1t arrives. The balance of the rails will
Acome across the 1sthmus. and Will be here
by the time the other six miles are laid. so
the work will go right ahead. The mate
rial will arrive now as fast as the grading
can be done. and there is not a great
amount of grading to be done on the whole
route. 1t will bring in the present crop
from Antelope and beyond. We suggest
to farmers in that district that they need
not be in q hurry about thrashing, and in
the meantime sacks may come down. Mr.
Palmer is now in the field, and will be
ready for grading in few days.-Colusa
