COwhtded by a Woman

SANTA BARBERA, Jan. 7-Esta-
nislans Cardero, native ranch
owner and parsimonious money-len'
der of large means, was publlcaly
cowhided in the street at noon to-
day by Mrs. Gutirrez who &C
cused him of circulating scandalous
reports against her character. She
succeeded in getting in one stroke
on his face, when Cardero ran
across the street pursued by the in
furiated matron, and, passing
through the clothing store he Sc
GREETED himself in a small building
in the back yard. Mrs. GUTHRIE,
walked away in triumph.

A CANDID JOURNAL.

We cannot help but admire the
admirable trait of candOr in news
paper. One Of these open and above
board journals is the Grass Valley
Tidings edited by Ruff. Shoemaker
He says:
eve have received from San
Francisco newspaper which has
for its motto "Politics!-Simplifed
Purified Dignifed." We don't want
that paper. We have no use for
any politics easily learned, nor do
we want either purity or dignity in
politics. When we pursue politics
we want the old kind: mysterious,
entirely dirty and having no dignity
that prevents the most AFFECT crawl
ing to get an Office. That San Fran
cisco reforming journal will find no
friend in The Tidings."
Correct you are Mr.. Shoemaker.
Such a paragraph as the above
stands out in bold relief to the Peck
snifian sheets which are publish
ed in California. The chances are
that this paper with its gilt edged
motto is started by some lunatic
who will sell out for 81 and is to be
run in the interest Of some gang OF
iobbers who expect to rob the city.

ONE POINT GAINED.

The news comes from Washing
ton that Justice Miller of the Su-
preme Court has already decided
one point raised bv Gen. Clarke on
his case of mandamus against the
Government. The Washington
Capital says:
Justice Miller, of the Supreme
Court, has expressed the opinion,
that under the tenure Of Office act
as it stands the President has no
power to remove an official without
the consent of the Senate, (sectlon
1859. and that in case the Senate
refuses to confirm nominations
made to succeed suspended officials
the latter are restored to Office until
their successors are confirmed
Most of the Senators hold different
opinion, but Justice Miller says
that suspended official whose sue
cessor is not confirmed can be held
responsible for the conduct Of his
Office from the date on which the
nomination of his successor Is re-
iected, and that any court. will so
decide"
The law has been laid down in
Carsno's petition to the President
as follows by Gen. Clarke.
The power to suspend widely
differs from the power to remove.
It is expressly restricted to par.
ticular occasion, namely, the recess
of the Senate" 1t is limited in
point of time, namely, until the
end of the session." and is condi-
toned uron designating some per-
son, not to fill the Office, but to tenn
porarily perform its duties.
No vacancy is created. The sus-
pended officer still holds the legal
title, and is the legal incumbent;
the person designated performs the
duties, and exercises the functions
of the Office in the meantime. The
Office is full, both de jure and defacto.
The suspended officer holds the title,
the designated person performs the
duties; suspension does not work a
removal or create a vacancy; moth
ing short Of the appointment and
confirmation of a successor operates
to vacate the Office.
To hold that the President has
the power to suspend an officer In
the case under consideration with
out designating another, subverts
the plain intention of Congress and
defeats the objects Of the law.
Denied the power to remove, or to
deprive an officer Of his title with
out the consent of the Senate, the
President could accomplish the
forbidden thing, by suspending an
officer and refusing to nominate
another IN his place. No such con-
struction is permissible"
This will be interesting news to
Federal Office holders and ought to
give the citizens of Carson hope
that portion of the position taken
by the citizens of the town relative
to the Mint has already been sane
toned by the Supreme Court.

An Oregon old-timer says the
first poem" ever 'indited" in that
country was by a Yamkill woman

New York ID all they know Of our country.
They have no conception Of anything else but
New York and New York city fashions and
trade. tried TO make them understand that
after reached New York would have to go
some 1 800 miles out into the interior to see my
family, and that was not half way across the
country, but they did not seem to understand
how it could be-"
"YOu say that the revenues of the Office have
greatly fallen of. What is the cause?"
"The main reason Is the decline of the
American shipping. Up to about two years ago
the bulk Of the carrying trade was done in
American vessels Then the English came in
and drove out the American ships, and now
the Norwegians are driving them out"
How do they do this2"
"Well, by the superior cheapness with which
they can do the business. English steamers came
in there and made rates great deal lower than
even the American sailing vessels could do, and
so they got the trade. A ship can be built in
England for about half the cost Of an American
ship, because labor is so much cheaper, the
capital is so much more abundant and content
with lower rates of interest, and insurance is so
much cheaper. You can get all the money you
want in England to build ships at ridiculously
low figures, and so long as you keep the ships
insured capitalists are eager TO invest in them.
Then the cost of running an English ship Is
nothing like what an American ship is, for the
seamen can be hired so much cheaper. Most of
the British ships in that trade now are manned
by Scotch, who live on a little porridge and
broth, with very little meat, and consequently
can be hired cheaper than Americans or even
Englishmen. On the other hand. NOrwegians
are beating the English in this way, for a Nor
wegian ship can be built just as cheaply, if not
cheaper, than an English ship. and a Norwegian
sailor will work for So or $ a month and live
| on the c0mmOnest, cheapest kind Of food where
| an American sailor wants from S13 to S25 a
month and good food. The diminutiOn Of the
| carrying trade in American ships is so great
that the revenues of my Office, which were over
$1,000 year two years ago, have now fallen to
| less than LOCO"
you say that bananas and cocoanuts are ex-
| ported from BaracOa?"
"Yes. More than 100000 bananas and over
/ 100000 eOeoanuts were shipped from there
last year. You see it is in latitude %, and con-
sequently about as hot down there as any place
! you can find"
"Are there any manufactures thersF"
| mo; there is nothing in that part Of the
/ Island except the cocoa and banana business.
/ The rains prevent anything else. 1t begins
/ raining there in September and continues until
| March. This is the case along the whole north
east Of the Island. In the south they raise
/ sugar.

Intelligence Of Driver Ants.

There are certain ants that show
wonderful intelligence, and the "dri-
yer ants" not only build boats. but
launch them, too; only these boats
are formed of their own bodies. They
are called "drivers" because of their
ferocity. Nothing can stand before
the attack of these little creatures.
Large pythons have been killed by
them in single night, while chick
ems, lizards, and other animals in
western Africa fee from them in
terror. To protect themselves from
the heat, they erect arches. under
which numerous armies of them
pass in safety. Sometimes the arch
is made of grass and earth gummed
together by some secretion. and again
it is formed by the bodies of the
larger ants, which hold themselves
together by their strong nippers.
while the workers pass under them.
At certain times of the year fresh
cts overflow the country inhabited
by the "drivers," and it is then that
these ants 60 to sea. The rain comes

The Value of Coal Tar.

The true value of coal tar on the
farm has not generally come to be
recognized. AS preserver Of wood
it is the best and the cheapest of any
thing we have. This product may
be obtained from gas works at very
slight cost, and when properly ap-
piled goes great way in its use.
Any wood surface to be exposed a
part Of the time to moisture. will be
made to last very perceptibly longer
when given covering of tar. Those
who have tried dipping soft-wood
posts, such as willow and poplar, GER
tify that the wood is made to last in
the ground equal TO the best seasoned
oak. Well curbing. the lower boards
of fences or buildings, barn floors, in
fact anything exposed to moisture.
will be well preserved if given a
covering of hot tar. AS disinfect-
ant 1t is considered very valuable.
and should be applied to the walls
and roosts of poultry houses, and to
the solid portions of pig pens. The
best condition in which to apply it as
a rule. is while hot. 1t is in this
way the cheapest and forms much
better preservatIve, yet it can be APP
piled as a paint, by thinning with
turpentine when In melted condi-
ton. This will be found more ex-
pensive, as turpentine costs about
sixty cents a gallon. The ordinary
way of tarring POSES is to dip them |;
the process Is convenient, and the re.
suit most effectual. A long, through
like vat, provided with sheet.iron
bottom, and the whole set over a
brick fireplace makes very conven-
lent arrangement. Two men, each
provided with hook made of heavy
wire, stand at each end of the vat,
and are able to perform the dipping
with a great deal of speed. The tim
