TIE CITRUS FRUIT QUESTION.
The Object of the Late Citrus Fair and
is Accomplishment.

The Sacramento Bee says that Riverside
challenged the northern counties for a COM
parlson by placing specimens in the citrus
fair at Sacramento. and she has suffered in
the contest, as the northern productions are
so much better in every respect that there
is actually no omparison.-[K Kern County
Californian.
Why was it, then, if Riverside has suf-
fered so severely at the hands of northern
California in the matter of comparing fruit,
that the management of the Northern
California Citrus Fair stipulated positively
that when the fair was moved to the Me-
chanics Pavilion in San Francisco, River
side must be ruled out, or the exhibitors at
Sacramento would not allow their fruit to
go down to the city? The facts are,
the Sacramento managers wanted the
San Francisco management to rule River
side out and they declined, but said if
there were to be any ruling out done, the
Sacramento management must do it. and
they did. The Sacramento RECORD UNION
knows that these are facts, and it is honest
enough to say so, but the Bee tries to make
a point against southern California by mis-
stating facts.-[Press and Horticulturist.
Our Riverside contemporaries state
ments are liable to be misunder-
stood. The object of the Northern
California Citrus Fair was not to exhibit
our oranges, lemons, ETC., with a view to
showing their quality, but to establish the
important fact that central and northern
California have vast area OF territory en-
joying a semi-tropical climate, and not only
adapted to the growing of citrus fruits, but
that in fact these fruits mature here many

the State. These facts were established by
the fair in Sacramento 10 the fullest salts
faction of all. and to an extent that has
revolutionized the views of the people OF
the entire East, concerning our climate and
productions. When the proposition was
considered of transferring the exhibits to
San Francisco, it was believed by the man.
ayers of the fair that to admit the exhibits
of finest budded varieties from Riverside OF
other localities would at once raise COM
petition between the two sections as to
quality of fruit, and that thus attention
would be diverted from, and lessened, as
to the main object of the fair This was
the real and only cause for limiting the
exhibits at San Francisco to central and
northern California.
The great object of our late citrus fair
having been now so successfully accom-
plished, and the people of the East and the
world made to know that this section OF
the State is a natural and favored home of
the orange, lemon, olive, fig and the raisin,
there is no doubt but that when the next
Northern California Citrus Fair is held
early in the coming December-the invita-
ton will go forth not only to our brethren
of southern California, but to all lands and
chimes that can show ripe citrus fruits be-
fore the holidays, to !" come and see u.s.

The Situation at Seattle.

SEATTLE February 14th.-The steamer
Geo. w Elder sailed for San Francisco 10
day with 1l0 Cinnamon, whose fares were
paid by public subscription. About sc
more await the steamer at Port Townsend
This is as many as the steamer could take
Many more wished to go. Several arrests
were made by the military authorities to-
dav. The court-martial for the trial OF
offenders will convene tomorrow The
resolutions adopted by the Anti Chinese
Congress at Portland excite little COM
ment here. The structures on Governor
Squire's conduct are regarded as extremely
unjust. Responsible citizens, almost with
out dissent, consider the firing by the
militia on Monday as entirely justifable,
and all agree that the declaration of mar
tial law was absolutely necessary under
the circumstances. All feel confident that
any investigation that may be made will
result in complete vindication of the
Governors course.

Want of Reciprocity Complained of

VICTORIA, February 14th.-Much dissat.

dispatched the Deputy Attorney General
to ST. Paul, to watch the case for the
Crown. 1t is pointed out by the press that
in every case prisoners claimed for extra
dition by the United States have been given
up promptly. Hibbs and Morgan are cited
as samples. Eleven years ago fugitive
convict was captured on British soil, and
sent back at an expense to British Column
bia of $1,000, and the bill had nsver been
paid. Want of reciprocity on the part Of
the Americans is deeply regretted, and it is
feared may provoke reprisals.

THE decision of the City Attorney of
San Francisco that the Supervisors of that
city have not the power to increase the
retail liquor license tax, has no application
outside of that municipality. The decis-
ion relates solely to the legislation for San
Francisco, and which has not been applied
to any other cities, because the maximum
of the license fee for San Francisco was
fixed by the Legislature, and as conse-
quence can be changed only by legislative
authority.

The San Francisco Post fears that, de-
spite the demands of representative ele-
ments of the political parties, and especial
ly of the Republican party, We are to
be forced into long campaign. We still
entertain the hope that this will not be
done. Long campaigns are profitable only
TO the leeches of party. They are ex-
hausting to candidates and people alike.
More than this, they make candidacy SO
costly that ability to get the better men
upon the tickets is crippled. Where for
months a candidate is exposed to the ex-
actions of bosses, the assessments of COM
mittees, and the blaclmail of swindlers
and political strikers, his hope of recovery
of the outgo from the income of the office
is destroyed, and thus dishonesty in Office
is directly promoted. The fight for long
campaign has begun in San Francisco, de-
veloping in the struggle for local power in
the metropolis. But of course the scheme
contemplates the State campaign also, and
it engages the attention of the party
bosses in general. There is one thing upon
which political ring generals are agreed
always, no matter what the outward man.
ifestations of political animosity, and that
is that the parties are especially provided
to be MIXED by the bosses. Voters and
candidates are to them simply means to
ends, and it matters very little what they
suffer so long as the bosses are reinforced
in power and purse.

principle from eompensating Southern peo-
pie who were in rebellion for other prop
erty lost by reason of the war? The cot

it, and with just as much reason in it, may
be a bill to pension ex-rebel soldiers.

GEORGE @. CANNON, the Mormon chief
and really the brains of the church side
of the Mormon question-has for some
time been in hiding from the officers of the
law. On Saturday Cannon was arrested at
Winnemucca, New, he being on a train
bound West 1t is reported that he offered
brides to the officer who found him, to be
allowed to go free, but of this we have
some doubt. Cannon is too shrewd a man
to commit himself in that way 1t is clear
that the whole polygamous system Of Utah
is now in state of collapse, and that the
end is near at hand. 1t has been demon
strated that the law can be enforced in the
territory, and that few courageous and
incorruptible officers are equal to all the
hosts of the "Saints."

THE San Joaquin and Yosemite Rail
road Company will at once begin the con-
struction of railroad from Berenda, in
Fresno county, to extend twenty-five
miles toward the Yosemite Valley, and to
terminate at Perry's ranch. The route to
be covered is the most unsheltered of the
entire road to the valley, and is mainly
over plains and low, rolling hills. It will
shorten the actual time into the valley by
stage to something less than one day, and
thus very much lessen the discomforts of
the trip. The new road, by rendering the
valley more easily accessible, will stimulate
the desire to visit the greatest and most
inspiring of our natural wonders. 1t will
augment not only the tourist travel to the
valley, but will result in thousands of our
own people visiting it, who have not yet
done so. The result of the building of the
road will be to increase the volume of
summer incoming by strangers to the State,
and this in turn, will add to the amount
OF money disbursed among our people, 1t
is gratifying to know that the road will be
completed in ample time for the travel of
the season about to open.

THE news of yesterday that Bulgaria
has ordered the mobilization of her army
and that the Seryian army is already in
the ield-ostensibly for six weeks drill
is not surprising. All the tinkering of
Austria, designed and urged on from Ber-
lin, has pointed for some weeks to pre-
cisely this result. Greece is calling in her
reserves, and locked ships of war have
been ordered to fit for service at once.
Turkey, apprehensive that the Greeks
may make sudden effort to regain lost
ground upon the northern frontier, has dis
patched troops in that direction. Russia
refuses concurrence with the agreement
between Prince Alexander of Bulgaria
and the Porte, and there is reason to be-
lieye that the Cars Government will not
acquiesce in any convention Bulgaria and
Turkey may propese-in short, everything
portends a renewal of war upon the Bal
kan peninsula. For this both Austria and
Russia have been scheming, and they will
not rest content until they have brought it
| about. Behind all this is the German in
lluence, secretly exerted, and all the more
potent by reason of its attempted conceal
ment.

NoRRIsTowN PA, February 13th.-The
funeral train bearing the remains of Gen
eral Hancock made the journey from Jer-
sey City to this place without any incident.
All along the route the people-men,
women and children-were out to see the
passage of the black-robed cars, testifying
their respect and honor for a brave de-
fender of the Union. At Philadelphia
committees representing the Loyal Legion
and the citizens awaited the train. Among
the distinguished Pennsylvanians here
gathered were Governor Pattison and ex-
Governors Hoyt and Hartranft. The train
reached Norristown at $40 P. NJ.
The procession was at once formed, con-
sisting of the pall-bearers, the to wn Coun-
Gil, the Hancock Veterans, of Philadelphia,
Zook Post, G. A. r., the Masonic organiza-
tons aad citizens. The procession filed
through the main street, which was crowded
with people, to the site of the tomb on the
bill overlooking the city. Several thousand
people had gathered at that point, and the
Loyal Legion and the Zook Post formed a
Gordon around the tomb to keep the crowd
back. The hearse at length reached the
curve near the place of sepulture and the
casket and slowly led the way around the
last bend of the Generals last journey. The
pall-bearers had alighted and formed in
lines on each side of the remains Secretary
of State Bayard walked level with the head
of the coffin, and half of his colleagues fol-
lowed, while General Sherman led the file
on the opposite side, with Secretary of War
EndicOtt next to him. General Sheridan
