unlawful and prohibited. We understand
perfectly the theories of the Socialists.
There have been as many as there have
been leaders. From Plato, to Morier, to
Bubeuf; whether according to Blanc, or
Hyndman, or Most, they are the same en-
emies to the natural development of social
forces. With here and there pure prin-
ciple interjected, they have all been
vicious in realization and destructive of
natural rights. To say that this school of
the socialists is the genuine, and that the
spurious, is but to more involve an alb
surdity. We deal not with distractions
but with the actual effects of the preach
ings that incite to action, and such, we re-
peat, Of right ought to be, and by the grace
of the American Republic will be,
stamped out.

X redemption of City Bonds.

The City Sinking Fund Commissioners
have recently purchased coupons upon the
city bonded debt to the amount of $lO1,-
SSS, for which they only paid $40, 243, thus
securing discount of $31 ,645. The Fund
Commissioners will receive about $4,000
more during the remainder of 1885, and
will be able to buy il, before the LIST of
January next, about another 500, 900 there
with. Thus, with the $4,000 which
passes into the hands of the Commissioners
this year, over 100000 of the city's in
debtedness will be taken up at discount
of about 30 per cent. Upon this 5000, 900
the Commissioners will draw an in
come next year, together with interest
upon the large amount of bonds now
in their hands. In this manner the amount
to be received by the Commissioners on the
interest of the city will rapidly increase,
and in less than five years nine-tenths at
least of the amount paid by the city into
the sinking and interest fund will go di-
rectly through the hands of the Fund Com
missioners to purchase outstanding indebt-
edness against the city, and in not to ex-
coed twelve years the entire city debt will
have been bought in by them and can
celled. The discount obtained by the Com
missioners this year is from so to 33
per cent. Next year it would prob
ably be not less than 40 per cent, and
the following year 40, or whereabouts,
and so on. This estimate or statement is
based upon the revenues as now received,
but if the suit to compel So per cent. of the
gross receipts of the Water Works, instead
of the net receipts, should be decided
against the city. it would increase the pay
ments to the sinking and interest fund.
The result of this would be to lessen the
time in which the Commissioners Wound
buy up the debt by about two years, in
which case, if the Sinking Fund Commits
sioners are allowed to continue their oper-
atoms of buying in the city debt at the
heavy discount, the entire debt will be
wiped out within ten years.

BeycOtting Swallowed,

The Chico Chronicle of yesterday SAYS {:
" Colonel II. J. Burns, Deputy United
States Marshal, arrived last evening, on
official business relative to the boycott
movement, which seems to have somew hat
taken root here. The names of those who
indorse the boycott movement are being
procured, and it is more thai likely some
of them will have their names entered on
the docket of the United States District
Court as the defendants in actions prose-
cuted in the name of The People of the
United States vs. Mr.. A. Boycotter.'
The authority of Colonel Burns is based
upon Section 55l9 of the Revised Statutes
of the United States, which reads as fol-
lows: If two or more persons in any
State or Territory conspire tor the purpose
of depriving, directly or indirectly, any
person, or class of persons of the equal pro-
lection of the laws, or of equal privileges
or immunities under the laws,
such persons shall be punished by fine
of not less than $500 or more than 5000,
or by Imprisonment with or without hard
labor, not less than six months, nor more
thansix years, or by both such fine and
imprisonment He intends to make a
clean sweep. This may be food for reflec-
ton to some who have stepped into the
matter rashly, but they will have time 10
reconsider if the law in its stern majesty
steps in. According to report, Colonel
Burns has made the necessary arrange
ments with General McComb, Warden of
Folsom Prison, to board 5000 boycotters at
the expense of the United States"

boycotters boycott their President for trad

as these that destroy all the good moral

DR.. G. G. Tyrrell, Secretary of the State
Board Of Health, has returned from
Trucllee where he went to investigate the
epidemic disease that has SO alarmed the
people there. He found it TO be yirulent
scarlet fever, and due, first, TO unsanitary
conditions, that were in turn due Ia neglect
of cleanliness and ordinary sanitary pre-
cautions; and second to carelessness in not
isoiating those capable of communicating
the disease. He addressed the citizens,
pointed out the needs of the place, and a
memorial was drawn and sent to the county
Supervisors for the appointment of Health
Officer. The trouble is, Truckee is unin-
corporated, and hence has no Health Off
Ger, and there is no local authority to en-
force upon the careless and those ignorant
of sanitary laws, the usual sanitary precau-
tons. Truckee is so situated as to be easily
made and easily kept in fine sanitary
condition, and epidemic filth diseases ought
to be absolutely unknown there. Now that
attention is called to the needs of the place,
DR.. Tyrrell believes the citizens, who are
public-spirited and ready to do what is
necessary, will enforce proper sanitation
and put the town in the proper sanitary
condition.

RIGHT is the Vallejo Chronicle when it
says: "Our nation has always been fore
most in the encouragement of the immi-
grafton of honest, industrious working
men into our borders; but she will not
long remain a refuge for the outcast Com
munists and Nihilists of Europe to prac-
tice their pernicious theories in These
men, freed from the fear of execution at
the nod of a suspicious sovereign, 60 wild
in the liberty of our land, and conduct
themselves as beasts till they are accepted
and treated as such" The year will not
be dead before all the self-respecting press
of all the country will be attuned to SIM
liar note. The RECoRD-UNIoN has the
gratifying reflection that years ago it tool,
position in favor of restricting immigra-
ton so as to put up the bars against all
classes of foreigners who are not attached
to our form of government and loyal to
order and the rule of law From the out
set it has been the advocate of one flag.
and the enemy of the policy that admits
to the national fireside venomous reptiles,
to sting to death the heirs to the fairest
heritage of man.

WORK AT THE PEARSON DIsTRIcT.-Dur-
at various times that the levees of the Pear
son District had broken, allowing the lands
to be flooded, but these reports were with
out foundation. The back levee at one
place stood nobly against pressure of six
teen feet of water. OF course a great deal
of seepage water accumulated in low places,
and this is now being removed by means
of an immense pump, which handles o.
100000 gallons of water in twenty four
hours. Last Tuesday the pump lowered
the water one inch, ON Wednesday one and
three fourth inches, and with each success
sive day its work will become more and
more apparent. After the water is removed
a crop of barley will be planted.

THE blockade of Grecian ports has been
ordered The fate of Greece in this issue
is probably sealed. She is in the right.
She demands only that the law of COM
mon humanity awards her. But the force
to be arrayed against her will be too
powerful for successful resistance We can
well wish her success. Her effort to loosen
the grasp the unspeakable Turk has upon
the throat of peoples in tongue and senti-
ment Grecian, is a gallant one-one ON
which she can afford to stake her exist
ence, triumphant even if she dies as ma
ton, since her cause is right, and might
only can prevail against her.

THIS is not free country. Here is the
President about to marry, and he cannot

consolation, that he can pay off the Paul

the day of the wedding.

LET no friend of the anti-Chinese cause
fear. Ultra advocates have done it grievous
harm. But it will triumph, for it is writ
ten upon the pages of American destiny.
The Monaghan will not be allowed to
seize upon the country, 10 Dust white labor,
to degrade industries, to set up here per-
manently his peculiar system. We have
tolerated him these many years. We have
been patient people. We will continue
to be so. The power OF moral suasion. the
force of reason, the incontrovertible testi-
mony of facts, will bring Congress and all
the East in due time into the swim of our
sentiment The Understandable people
will not be permitted to swarm in upon
us; their immigration is now by law re-
stricted That law is in places faulty and
weak, but it will be made strong and given
all desired effect There must be no vio-
lence, no intimidation, no offense to law or
to treaty; but we must continue to agitate
the Just cause and advance its colors. Agi-
tation is the mother of all reform. We of
California know it is right sentiment we
entertain; we know that the relief asked
for is just-we must have the patience to
wait for the working out of the problem
1t is nearer to solution than most sup
pose. But it never will be solved if the
ultra-radical and hot-headed are permitted
to represent us to the East by their acts
and expressions as cruel, vindictive, perse-
cutting, and conspirators against human
rights.

II is fact that more dishonesty, often
involuntary dishonesty, is caused by reck
lessness in mourning debt than in other

as fundamental principle of practical

surely pay.

IT is good sign, most encouraging
sign, testimony in favor of the American
system of assimilating other blood, that
among the most pronounced protestants
against the infamous acts and teachings of
the Anarchists Socialists and Communists
of the East, are to be found naturalized
citizens-men who have come here to be
of us, and not to pull about our heads the
pillars of the republic There will never
be another native American movement,
but there is now afoot and growing with
marvellous speed an American sentiment,
the breath of which will sweep from the
face of free soil the last greasy beer-guz-
zling Socialist, the cadaverous Polish An
archist and the red-handed Communist.
The word of command will be given and
enforced, the anarchists and all their motley
following must go we want their places.
They are in uncongenial atmosphere, their
breath contaminates the air of freedom,
their presence is a threat, their words are
an insult, their doctrines infamous, their
teachings corrupt and their sentiments
poison receptive minds. We cannot afford
to tolerate such social scum. federation in
their case is an invitation to crime and
overthrow of republican institutions

4 Partisan NilliOnaire'S Bed.

A Partisan millionaire, N. Lang,
has recently had made for him q
wonderful bed. which is certainly one
of the most luxurious pieces Of furni-
ture we have yet heard Of. If only
it could become universal, what .
boon it would be to early risers !!
The description makes one envy the
unfortunate possessor. The bed
itself is a model of comfort; and the
following devices have been adopted
to render rising from it as little un-
pleasant as possible. When it IS
time to get up. 4 chime Of bells rings.
The occupant continues to sleep.
Suddenly q candle is lit by clever
mechanical arrangement. The sleep
er rubs his eyes. and an invisible
hand proceeds to divest him of his
nightcap. BE- means of electricity

paratus affixed next begins to burn.
The water soon boils, and the smell
Of coffee soon fills the room with
delicious fragrance. Luxuriously re-
Yelling in q crowd OF agreeable sen.
sations. the occupant. now just be-
ginning to awake. is soothed by
sounds proceeding from costly !nu-
sic box. y. length the bells ring
out another merry peal, and at the
foot Of the bed q card with "Levcz-

effect a powerful mechanism lifts the
occupant bodily from his bed and de.
posts him on the 1oor.-Chicago

And against the repeal Of the tariff

GREENIILLE NEWS.
The special congressional COM
mittee on the strikes is getting into
deep water in it's inquiries concern
ing the present condition Of trade
and labor.
It will reach after q while the con-
clusion that there is now more Of
everything men make than there is 4
demand for-than man has increased
his power of producing beyond bis
power of consumption- The popula-
!ation Of the known world cannot
increase more than twenty per cent.
in o decade. and machinery and dis
covcry have increased the power of
each individual to make what is
needed by himself and others for life
and CO... fort many hundred per cent.
The remedy is hard to find. 1t
must be reached by natural processes.
1t can not be made but it can be re-
tarded by laws and artificial devices.
AS the ground is the source of all
wc have and is the only thing we
know having in itself the principle
Of life and the power to give and
maintain life, it may be that the
great problems now before the world
will be solved by stupendous reac-
tion-that multitudes of men will be
forced to return to the first principles
and dependence for food and clothes
on tie results or their individual cul-
ture Of the earth. It is easy to see
how such q result might come.
