THE BUSINESS STREETS
Is mainly low and plain. To the East
e-n visitor. accustomed TO lofty buildings
Of high finish, our business streets do not
present an imposing appearance at first
view. There IS q decided prevalence
Of broad balconies which line the business
streets from end to end, and are mainly
supported BY posts. But this apparent
fault IS very largely removed as one be
comes familiar with the facts. 1t is q warm
climate; the need FOR day shelter IS felt,
hence the oyerhanging structures. The
lots are large, and as realty is not held Tor
speculative purposes greatly, the need for
lofty buildings is not experienced. The
economy OF business IS SGbSeTYed by broad
floor areas on street levels, expediting the
handling Of goods and transhipment.
Thus the l0wnesss of our business struct-
ures IS an actual gain. and enables Us to
fill and ship orders with greater facility
than if storage was upon many floors. But

TIE PLAZA. SACRAMENTO.

The city is well supplied with churches.
embracing the more familiar denomina-
tons. There is fine free library, the
State Library and the Odd Fellows Lii
brary. There are many intellectual and
social organizations, superb city art gal
lery, with its School Of Design, and the be-
ginning of a museum of natural history.
Besides the public schools there is Bust
ness College, Sisters of Mercy seminary
and school, normal school, kindergarten
and private schools, music schools and lit
erary associations. The city has two fine
theaters and eight public halls and four
lecture rooms. Of journals there are pub
lished in Sacramento two daily, four
lies and number of minor papers The
leading school books used in the common
school system of the State are printed and
bound at the State Printing Office in the
city. Annually the
STATE AGRICULTRAL SOCIETY
Holds an agricultural and industrial fair
in the city. 1t has the finest driving park
and stock ground in the State, and the
largest exhibition structure west of the
Mississippi river. It should have been
earlier noted that Sacramento is the chief
point in the State for fruit and vegetable
shipments eastward On Second street,
very near to the railroad depot, the
stranger will find the office of the Immi
grafton Association, where, free of cost, in
formation is furnished that may be i'm
plieitly relied upon regarding soil, climate,
products, vacant lands, tracts of land for
sale, capacities of different sections of the
State, etc. This information relates to any
section of the State, but chiefly to the cen
tral and northern portions, which we Of
central California deem the more desirable
for climate, reliability Of rainfall, fruit, vine
and grain production, economic farming,
oheapness Of lands, broad variety Of pro-
duction, nearness to market and breadth OF
profit to agricultural industry.
SOCIETY
In Sacramento is Settled, and closely re
sembles that Of the best regulated conlnu-
mites Of the East. There is neither super
abundance of wealth nor abiect poverty
The most of the people are well to do and
mingle freely upon aplane, the standard of
which is good moral character. The large
number of eonfraternal associations and
religious, literary and social organizations
bring the people into close relations, and
create Z common bond of sympathy and
interest Business has focal center in
well-organized Board of Trade looking to
a conservation of interests. The people
are noted for broad hospitality, and for the
enthusiasm with which they provide for
the entertainment of visitors on such occa-
sions as the gatherings Of large bodies Of
people in the Capital City. Notable among
some events Of this character were the
Floral Festival in honor of Mrs Z. 3.
Croker for her beneticent remembrance
of the city the Citrus Fair; the receptions
of Grant, Sheridan and Hayes, the enter
tainment Of the German societies OF
the State and the Parlors of the

CLEANSING LADIEs' HAR.-We object
to the use of carbonate Of potash by hair
dressers for cleansing the hair Of their
customers. The cleansing action Of this
powerfully alkaline substance is very ef-
fective, but it is prejudicial to the hair at
the same time. 4 teaspoonful Of pulyer-
lied borax in cup of boiling water, or,
cleansing the hair with the yolk Of g fresh
egg, and following this with warm solu-
ton of borax or salt and water, especially
sea water, is much preferable, and has the
effect Of cleansing and eoftening the skin
Of the scalp. Eastern ladies, remarkable
for the beauty Of their hair, adopt the
latter mode Of cleansing it.-HerSrIi Of

In the controversy over Adolph
Sutro the Salt Lake Tribune
charges the APPEAL with making
column of random statements. "
These statements are taken from
the reports of Congressional inves-
tigation and are set forth in Hon.
Jere Blacks opinion as questions
of fact. It is rather late in the day
to call these questions established
by swora testimony and never re-
ported as random statements.
The statement that Sutro left
Nevada squeezed orange" is re-
futed By Mr.. sutro's present fnan-
cial status. He is building a park
worth millions and has presented
San Francisco with a magnificent
library. San Francisco appears to
be doing remarkably we'll with this
man whom the Tribune alludes t o
as a squeezed grange.

LET JUSTICE BE DONE.

The developments IN the Per
kins-Baldwin case at Los Angeles
show that Lucky Baldwin is guilty
of crimes which demand the i'm.
mediate attention of the Grand
Jury and District Attorney. He
stands before the public as a sub
orner of perjury, aud if the au-
thorities are not towards or pur-
chased With Baldwin s money, he
will soon be on his way to the
Penitentiary. Public opinion
ought not to allow this man to es-
cape justice. He is just as answer
able to the law as the poor wretches
whom he has hired to swear away
an innocent girls character.
Some example must be made on
this Coast of the wealthy hhertines
who ruin young girls under promise
Of marriage, and then as defense
blacken their character in the
courts by means of hiring men to
commit perjury. There can be no
doubt in this case that Baldwin
hired his witnesses to commit de
liberate perjury, for under the
scathing cross examination they
we're forced to admit it.
If this wretch escapes his de-
serts after this exposure, the peo-
pie will take the law into their
hands and treat them as farmers
do coyotes upon whose heads the
State has placed a bounty.
If the jury gives the girl dam
ages, she does not stand one chance
in ten of getting a dollar as Bald
win will fight the case into the Su-
preme Court where all men Of
wealth are afforded safe harbor of
refuge.

4 RAILROAD OPINION

S. L. Gage Vice President of the
Southern Pacific thus gives his
views on the silver question.
All the controversy on The silver
issue has been brought about by
bondholders, foreigners and the
National banks, who are Influenced
by various causes, chief of which is
that they want a fuctuating cur.
rency as a basis Of speculation, and
they can speculate in silver. Some
Congressman who have not closely
studied the subject have fallen into
the trap. So far as Mr.. Gage has
observed, the producers, the tillers
Of the soil and the manufacturers
have not quarreled with silver, and
do not seem to be worried oyer the
existing state of affairs. If the
Government agrees to pay a bond
in certain kind OF currency, that
agreement should not be tempered
with, whether the currency speci-
fed be gold, silver, paper or nickel
All honest men stand by their
agreements, and the Government
should be no less nor more honest
than individuals but should keep
to the face of the bond.

BRINGING THEM TO TIME

says: From Tuesday morning of
last week to yesterday morning
District Attorney Dickson secured
sixteen convictions under the Ed
munds law, and the work was finish
ed up last evening by the arrest Of
George Q. Cannon at Humboldt,
Nevada. Unless by a trick Of
habeas corpus or by supplying bail
the active branch of the First Presi-
dency gets away, he will be returned
here in day or two a prisoner
This is making the law strike
where it should; the principals
more than the dupes are the ones
that ought to be made to answer for
their otfenses. One of the offenders
against the Edmunds law George Q.
Cannon is the very chief, It was
his power to have stopped all this
trouble. 1t was he who whipped
the people into their present fury
to defy the law. Surely the coun-
try ought to note the fact that the
United States officers here are do
ing their full duty and in a most
capable manner. We wish the
people here would read the signs

Tea rs Prepared in the East.

The Hunnias QIimalayan natlves) drink
ten which comes from China in small
packets, made up of the large leaves
small branches, seeds, ETC., forming q
mass reduced to the smallest possible size
By pressure, and rendered sometimes still
more complct by slight addition of
Sleeps blood. The Hunnias travel great
distances, living only on tea and what
the Hindus call suttoo, that is, flour made
from roasted beans or peas. To prepare
the tea they boil the leaves for some
hours, all night, in fact, if they are in
camp, in small earthen pot; then they
pour out the infusion into large bssin
full of hot water, adding some salt and
clarified butter (ghee), if they happen to
have it. All these naturally make kind
of soup, and the natives can live on it
several months and undergo severe ia
tigue without taking any other nourish-
ment. ''The method adopted by the
Mongols and other Tartar tribes for the
preparation of tea in bricks is" says
Johnston in his Chemistry of Common
Life" sit is believed, that which extracts
from the leaves the greatest possible
amount of nourishment. They sCrape the
tea into fine powder and boil it in the al
kaline water of the steppes, adding some
fat and salt, after which they pour off
the liquid, leaving the deposit. They
drink twenty, even forty, glasses of this
liquor in the day, mixing in it some
oney and butter, with little roast meat :;
bat with only little milk instead of the
meat they can subsist many weeks with
this drink for sole susteuance, 'tr- OiQ9a.

IN THE SOUTH.

1nere Is a Princess in the South
About whose beauty rumors hum
As honey-bees about the mouth
OF roses dewdrops falter from;
And o her hair is like the fine
. Clear amber of jostled wine
In tropic revels; and her eyes
Are blue as riffs of Paradise.
such beauty as may none before
Kneel daringly, to kiss the tips
VI fingers such as knights of yore
Had died to lift against their lips:
Such eyes as might the eyes of gold
Of all the stars of night behold
! With glittering envy, and 50 glare
In dazzling splendor of despair.
30, were but minstrel, deft
At weaving, with the trembling strings
OF my glad harp, the warp and welt
Ofrondels such as rapture sings
I'd loop my Tyre across my breast,
/ Nor stay me till my knee found rest
In midnight banks of bud and flower
Beneath my lady's lattice bower.
And there, drenched with the teary dews,
I'd WOO her with such wondrous art
As well might stanch the songs that ooze
Out of the mockbirds breaking heart;
SO slight, so tender, and so sweet
! Should he the words would repeat,
Her easement, on my gradual sight,
Would blossom as a lily might
