EDS. RECORD UNION: 1t seems to be a
hard thing to do-to find proper name
for middle and northern California, so as
TO give, by the name, our Eastern cousins
a correct idea of our climate, etc. 1t is but
natural they should have horror of any,
thing bearing a name so cold as - north
ern ;" they have enough of that at home.
Now, 1t is well known fact that, drawing
a line through the center of oar State. ali
the desert land we have is south of it; and
north of such a line contains more than
three-fourta of our native forests. And
why not call our portion of this State Ar
cadian California;" Anyhow, who has a
better name? p

They AIwaxs Bite.

A good-looking, well-behaved stranger
had been stopping in a country town in
this State for three or four days, when one
day, as dozen men were hanging around
the hotel doors, a humble youth, with
white eyebrows and lowered head, passed
along, leading a calf Both Travelled as if
it were an everyday thing, but no one
thought of this until afterward
Boy J" called the stranger from the no.
tel steps" what do you want for that
calf?"
Won't sell him."
How much does he weigh?"
Nigh upon 100 pounds"
T" II can't be- Gentlemen, I'd like to
wager that | can come nearer that calls
weight than any of you"
dozen citizens got up and walked
around the calf, and squinted their ewes
and mentally estimated. Then a sort of
pool was formed to scoop the stranger. and
$25 was contributed. There were eleven
guesses to his one, and they ranged from
147 to 15S pounds. He guessed 1881, and
when the animal was placed on the scales
the stranger was onlvtw ounces short. As
he raked in the pot and the boy and the
calf passed on man drove up in buggy
and called out:
This ere game has been played all over
the country, and it's time to move on some
body, Where's the villain ?'
Here am" answered the stranger.
81 arrest YOU Get into the buggy
His satcbel was ready, and he got in, and
it was a whole day before the villagers
found out that the man with the buggy
was confederate employed to do that very
thing Detroit Free Press.

RESULTS OF ENGLISH SANITATIoN.-Im-
Wales, a decided reduction in the death
rate having now been maintained for ten
years and been much greater than during
the second half of that period than in the
first. So great has been the recent reduc-
ton that, as the Registrar General points
out, more than PSI 900 persons survived
the last five years whose deaths would
have been recorded had the mean
rate of mortality been equal to that pre-
vailing in the ten years 1S71-s0 The effect
on longevity has been indicated by Mr.
Noel Humphrey, who states that the re-
duction in the death rate from 225 in 1885,
a to POS in 1860 has added two years to
the life of every male born, and three years
and half to that of every female.

DULUTH, Mimi, June 1S.-The i'm.
provements on the docks are still going on
and none are more marked than those of
the Duluth Storage & Forwarding company.
They have dock 140x500 feet in size, and
their warehouse covers space of 20Ox10O
feet The above company contemplate
other extensive improvements in the way
of increasing dock privileges, track laying
and charging their warehouse facilities.
The Omaha road have contracted with them
to do all their lake business and privilege
track has been laid for that purpose. One
important item in connection with this
business and which will be of
great importance to Duluth is the fact that
they are making arrangements for the re-
ceiving and shipping of Montana sheep and
cattle. and negotiations are now being made
for the shipment to Massachusetts of
several hundred sheep. Another import
ant factor is the large warehouses for the
storage Of flour during the winter on which
consignments will be made to enable the
owner of the flour to hold here and ship by
water when the lake opens in the spring.
The officers of the company are G.. G.
Hartley, president; E. d. Cummings of st.
Paul. vice president, and j. B. Howard,
secretary and treasurer. The stockholders
are composed Of ST. Paul and Duluth bust
ness men, and will add considerably to the

ANXIOUS POLITICIANS.
The Contest i'm the First District
Very Warm.

Special to the Globe.
KAssoN, June 1S-The political atmosphere
in this congressional district is becoming de-
cidedly hot, and as there are but few more
days before the congressional convention
meets the congressional candidates are as
busy as the proverbial bee, culling sweet
promises from their friends. Hon. J. A
Lovely of Freeborn county has been here and
he was kept busy interviewing local pol
iticians, but from hints gathered here and
there it is not ''all lovely IN the grand old
party in this county. Hon. NJ II. Dunnell is
expected soon again when another breeze
will be blown from another direction. This
county has always had strong anti-Dunnell
faction, and the bare mention of that gentle
mans name produces every symptom of
hydrophobia with the shavers, Edger
tons, Nelson's and their follow
ers, while the. appearance Of anyone
connected with the Ward movement of six
years ago, produces the same effect upon the
Dunnell men. The convention is called to
meet at this place June q, and from the
number of candidates in the field lively
time is expected and it is impossible now to
predict the result. While congressional can
didates are thick the interests of the state
are by no means neglected, and there are
many very patriotic citizens who would sac
rifice themselves to serve her. We were
also visited by the Hon. Mr.. Gill,
insurance commissioner, now cam
dldate for gubernatorial honors,
and Hon. Samuel Nichols. clerk of the
supreme court, who desires a reelection, but
what encouragement they received cannot be
learned. While we are visited by these emil
nent patriots, it must not be supposed that
Dodge county lacks its patriotic citizens, be-
cause, though small, we intend to keep up
with other portions of the state. While we
are being worked, our candidate for
state honors is booming in other fields.
George B. Arnold, Esq, of this place,
considers himself
the chair now occupied by W. W. Braden and
enters the field as candidate for state au-
ditor, but his connection with the court house
ring in early days in this county will cause
him much opposition in the county. 1t is
reported that L. g. Wilson, candidate for
state treasurer two years ago, has been COM
PEELED to withdraw from the contest this year
on account of i'll health, and in fact forego all
business cares. of county affairs little is
talked, as state and congressional matters
occupy so much attention just now, bat they
will develop in good time.
