EDS. RECORD UNION Those who pay
taxes furnish the money to pay the con-
tracts of street sprinklers. These men
knew what they contracted to do. No one
forced them to take the job They are
prompt to get their money, all the same.
The contract requires them to sprinkle
daily all graded alleyways. Now we
who live in the region of Seventh and NJ
streets can prove that a sprinkling wagon
has not been in the alley between NJ and
n, Sixth and Eighth, for weeks. There
are people living on the alley. 1t has a
sidewalk and is residence avenue. True,
the residents are poor people, but the prop
erty-owners pay the sprinkling tax. Is it
possible to compel these street sprinklers
to keep their contracts? If not, who sold
the city to them?

famed Palace Hotel-with its multiplicity

no other hotel-charges no more for regular
board per day, or by the week, than its
tirst-class neighbors. But, better yet, the

the low rate of one dollar day. The
Palace Restaurant is the best in San Fran

The General Committee on Sacramento
Day &C. A. r. is fearful that there will be
trouble about lodging the guests. But there
ought 10 be no trouble II is now certain
that we will have a large number, possibly
two thousand. They are from the best
citizenship of the East The majority are
here to " spy out land" with d view to
carrying the news to homes seekers at the
East. Sacramento's honor is at stake in
this matter of entertainment The hotels
will be full and more, ana the G. A. r.
guests have been promised that the latch
string of our doors shall hang out. In
fortunately, some of the sub-commit-
tees from the Domestic Hospitali-
ty Committee have not acted, and not
canvassed their districts. Others have done
well. In one little district sixty families
volunteered to take in guests for the night
and the most of them give breakfast also.
What is wanted now, is that every one not
yet called on shall send n once to 4. n. Bu-
chanan at headquarters sos J street, a note
stating how many can be given beds. State
alsoif breakfast uH or will not be furnished.
Thus the committee can inform guests
what TO expect, and all will be pleasant
Major Hubbard is in San Francisco. to him
the lists are daily sent, and guests assigned
there, as they signify intention to come
This is a matter of supreme importance to
our town. Every man and woman in
it ought to feel how much it may mean for
Sacramento. 1t is case of the sofa" a
"shake-down" or the carpet for ourselves
for one night, that our guests who slept on
straw and ate hardta while fighting our
battles may be well served. Every house
keeper ought to take just as many as pos
Siblp and repOrt if the beds are single or
double that proper adjustment of guests
may be made and no embarrassing con-
fusion result. In the meantime the sub
committees that have not canvassed their
districts ought to be ashamed of them
selves if they delay an hour longer to go to
work. There is no time for any more dilly-
aallYing.

In view of the way Ireland has been ground
money out of the country as fast as collected,
it is unfortunate for the cause of Ireland in
this country that one Of the most exacting
nonresident landlords owning property here
is an Irishman named Scully, living in Lon
don. He owns large tracts of lands in Illinois
and other States further west, the tenants of
which he binds with such grinding terms that
their local credit is destroyed, they having no
money to pay their current obligations. This
kind of tyranny will not be long tolerated in
America

The Pittsburg Chronicle wants to know
when Mr.. Cleveland twill be honest and say
that he removes officials because they are
Republicans, without endeavoring to-, find
some cause for their removal and attempting

to drive from the Cabinet in disgrace the man
who turns the crank of the infamous assassin

The Cincinnati Enquirer declares that it
has not observed that Republican papers give
any credit to the Democratic congressman
who decided against Mr.. Frank Hurd in his
contest against Mr. Romeis. The Journal for
one, at once expressed satisfaction and ap-
proval of the act and hopes it may serve as
landmark in time to come There has been
so much of wrong done in such cases that the
belief obtained that all that was necessary
when the majority or plurality was narrow
was to enter upon a contest, when the major
ity, if friendly to the contestant, would seat
him. Many a man fairly elected has thus
been deprived of his rights and shut out of
the seat If the action of the committee in
this instance is to be taken as an earnest of
an intention to sustain the election laws and
to respect the will of the people, the gentle
men are to be congratulated. We confess to
feeling greatly surprised at the action Of the
committee, and do not hesitate to give them
all due honor. If the decision is the result of
a determination to do justice in such cases,
regardless of partisan prejudice and party
needs, it must be regarded as good omen.

Demagogues swarm in the wake of popular

to discover the object Of the fatterer. The

with pretty words and encouraged in every
thing they undertake, only please turn the

to himself, to his family and to his fellow
laborers, to exercise the greatest wis
dom at his command, so that he
be not misled by schemers inside or
outside the organization of which he is a
member. He should keep well advised as to
his own interests, that he is not imposed on

it does this lawfully and successfully he
