J. D. Pratt. of Roseville, a Director Of
the Placer County immigration Associa-
ton, has put into execution most admir-
able and effective plan of immigration
work. In September he sent fine dis
play of fruits to Plymouth, Mass, his for
mer home, and exhibited them in the
name of Placer county. A Plymouth paper
thus refers to the display.
THE exhibit of Colonel J. d. Pratt, OF
Roseville, Cal, drew great deal of atten-
ton, as it deserved. The large and luscious
peaches, the huge clusters of grapes, the
figs, plums, raisins and pomegranates
showed conclusively that northern Califor-
MIA can produce such fruits as well as
southern California. Colonel Pratt is an
active member-a Director, in fact-of an
Association to extend a proper knowledge
of the advantages of that part of the State
as a fruit-growing region. The exhibit
comprised twenty-five plates of grapes, five
of plums, sixteen of peaches, Que of pome-
granates, and several boxes of raisins and
figs, the whole weighing 175 pounds"
Mr.. Pratt states that he was assisted IN
sending the fruit by Wells, Fargo Il Co.,
by whom it was transported free to the
Missouri river. If such collections of fruit
could be sent to all sections of the East by
large number of persons who are inter
ested in increasing the immigration to this
part of the State, good results would soon
be realized, and the demand for real es-
tate in Central California would soon set
present values booming.

Wine-Makine i'm YoIo County.

The Woodland Nail says that the Yolo
winery has crushed so far this year about
900 tons of grapes, and before the season IS
over will use about $50 tons more. They
expect to make 10000 gallons of wine this
year To do this work they nave been Civ
ing employment to ten men. but at present
only have seven, as the season is nearly
over They will distill about 1000 or $500
gallons of brandy The distillery has
capacity of 500 gallons in twenty.four
hours. In this building is situated the
motive power of the whole concern-a
thirty-horse power engine Of the finest
make. The average price paid for grapes
has been about SIS per ton. The making
of wine promises TO be- in few years, the
leading industry of Yolo county, as it is
pretty fully demonstrated that wheat
raising alone will not pay interest Oh the
money aud labor invested, at the low
prices realized in the last few sessens.

AN INFAMOUS ACT.

The San Francisco Examiner has made
itself the medium of dastardly and
ghoulish assault upon r. w. Waterman,
Republican nominee for Lieutenant-Gov-
ernor 1t intimates, by devilish inge-
nuity of phraseology and the damnable
cunning of innuendo, that Mr.. Water
man committed the awful crime Of
murder. and supplements it with allega-
tions of theft, fraud, and dishonorable con-
duct. 1t is charged that he murdered a
miner, buried him in his blankets, face
down, jumped his claim, defrauded his
brother, and enjoyed ill-gotten gains
thereby.
Whoever reads the mendacious story
from end to end will be amazed to discover
that there is not one scintilla of proof adj
duced; that, from the opening to the close
it is an attempt to fasten upon Mr.. Water
man the crime of murder by showing that
as no one knows who did kill the person
found, or that the person killed was a man
or woman, white or an Indian; and as
a miner had disappeared, the title tc
whose mine thereafter, by lawful processes
came into Mr.. Waterman's hands therefore
It may be that the miner is dead It may b,
that, if dead, the body found was his; il
may be the body was that of an Indian OIL
woman but if not, it may be that R. w

THE COMING LIGHT.-It has been san
guinely predicted that within five years the
magnesium light will be as familiar sight
in many places as the electric light is to-
day. Only the high cost of magnesium has
hitherto Kept it from extensive use and its
price, which was $40 pound few years
ago, is said to have been reduced to IS a
pound by new German process, with the
prospect ofstill further cheapening. A wire
Of moderate size equals the light of seven
ty-five stearine candles, making the cost at
present but little more than that Of gas,
while no expensive works or street mains
are required for its use. The magnesium
is simply burned in lamps provided with
clock work movement to feed the ribbon oil
metal regularly. There is 10 danger as
with electricity Science.

| Petitions have been sent to Washington
asking for mail route from Willow Ranch
to Bidwell, in Modoc county, and the re-
quest should be promptly granted. That
section of the State is developing rapidly,
and this advance should be fostered by the
Government by affording needed mail IA
cilities.

| produced in Sacramento county. With a
| proper tariff on foreign raisins TO protect
our own production, California can soon
supply, with highly profitable remunera-
ton, the raisin market of the United States
There must be an increased duty, however,
| placed upon the foreign importations, and
this can only be procured by success of the
party that believes in thus protecting home
industry. That party is the Republican
party.
Henry Edgerton, in a speech in the
southern part of the State few evenings
since, referring to the essential requisites
in man to make the ideal Chief Execu-
tive of the State, and said he should be cold
and austere, not to that degree that made
| bin unapproachable, but possessed of
| dignity of mind and mein akin to that of
| Washington. He thought Mr.. Swift an
swered every requirement for the Office.
But he added: 'If he is too cold in your
| opinion, let metell you that if you brought
Polar bear, sqqatting on his launches on
an iceberg fifty feet thick, and sat him
alongside Washington Bartlett, he would
freeze that bear to death in thirty minutes"
| Pasteur's prophylactic innoculations are
| still in progress, and the "institutes" at
which his system is being practically tested
are rapidly multiplying. A widespread
misconception exists with respect to the
theory on which his experiments are
founded. 1t is not sought to innoculate the
subject with rabid virus, though the
presence of this virus in the material used
is unavoidable-hencet the objections raised,
that much of the fluid used in Pasteurs
laboratory was innocent broth incapable
| of producing any symptoms, have no
weight. 1t is fact recognized by many
observers that most of the acute specific
| diseases, as smallpox and scarletina, are
self-limiting, a property ascribed to the
creation in the tissues of the animal
| affected of certain products which, when
present in excess, are inimical to the con-
tinued existence of the exciting cause 1t
occurred to Pasteur that hydrophobia
might act in similar manner, and that if
the product manufactured by the disease
was procurable, it would be possible BY
innoculating animals with this material to
render their tissues incapable of supporting
the virus of hydrophobia. The system is
yet on trial, and a more extended expert
ence to prove its continued usefulness may
| still be necessary.

IT is significant that the Democratic
press throughout the State is quoting the
attacks Of the San Francisco Chronicle
upon Republican legislative tickets These
influences understand perfectly well that
the Chronicle is laboring in their interest
that its compact calls for such Demo-
cratic majority in the two houses of the
Legislature as to insure the delivery of the
Senatorship to George Hearst.

KEEP it before the people that vote
for Washington Bartlett is the equivalent
of vote for George Hearst, who, to be re-
turned to the Senate, is leaving no stone
unturned that money will move. While
it does not always follow that the success
of the head of the ticket indicates the ex-
act complexion of the Legislature, it is
true that it has that tendency. California
cannot afford this year, or any year, to be
party to the transfer of the Senate, and
hence of Congress, to the chivalry Democ-

CALIFORNIA WINES. -Bontorts Vine and
Spirit Circular says: The California wine
statesmen are complaining bitterly as to the
prospects for fall trade, but we would sug-
gest that the growers hold large amount
of their stock until it is merchantable.
During the rush and boom last spring a
great many California wines were shipped
East which should have had one to three
years more maturity before being market
ed, and consequently considerable COM
plant is made regarding California wines

INDIANAPOLIS. Sept 80.
While business cannot be represented rushing
all along the line there is healthy trade in progress
and steadily improving The oldest merchants speak
of the outlook for business through the fall and early
winter as being very promising. Merchandise is NOV
ing reels through the channels of distribution the
manufacturing industries actively employed in
supplying the demands of consumption. The.export
movement while scarcely pto expectations has
menced to develop improvement particularly in
oil for the East and in cotton but while the for
egn demand for wheat and other cereals has contin
ued moderate throughout the week, the shipments
thus far from the whole country since the
ment of the crop year, Sept 1, very much in ex-
of the corresponding date last year, up to Sept
49, the exports Of wheat from the Atlantic seaboar
are about 600 600 bushels, and of -four, 15S 900
bbs., in excess of the same time in 1885, and the
movement of cotton is also somewhat larger than last
year. but the crop has been later in coming to market
and hence the foreign demand has been delayed. The
prospect is however, that an active export demand
will be experienced ere long for our leading staple
products for in addition to the low prices now ruling
is the fact that there will be considerable
in the yield of foreign crops that will have be sup
piled sooner later from this country. The local
markets in nearly all departments active with
few changes in values. Eggs, poultry and butter are
coming freely and for poultry and butter prices
rule weaker while not quotably lower In groceries
there is big trade at unchanged prices The -four
market shows no improvements. 1t does not seem
possible that -four and wheat be much longer ex.
| empt from the general trade revival During the
past week have noticed greater activity and nard-
enng prices for many of the materials, notably
wool and IRON Manufactured goods have also felt the
improvement. Notwithstanding these facts the -four
| market has remained demoralzed for a long
time past. September, which is usually the month
for active trade is passed. and closes with the
market dull and prices the lowest level
known for years Navigation will be stopped
and with the higher cost of transportation by rail in
view mers not willing to sell, except on condi-
tons. for future delivery. Taken whole, the sit
uation of the -four market is than it was
week ago. We must soon have better home trade
aud the demand from European countries shows signs
of increasing. and will doubt, be large when the
excellent quality of our new wheat and flour becomes
known.
