FREE BALLOT.

FREE BALLOT.
The purity of the ballot box is the hulwark
Of our liberties. To dcGc il, whether by fraud
or intimidation, is to strike OF the very founda-
ton Of republican government. Unless a free
ballot and honest count can be secured in
every State in this Union, o national election
is little more than a moCkcry. Hundreds of
thousands OF qualified electors of the South
are virtually denied the right Of suffrage. The
total Congressional vote Of the seven districts
Of the State of Mississippi in 1856 was 45,;ia;
Of the seven districts of South Carolina 81, or;
and Of the ten districts of Georgia u, $50, or
an average Of only 2,152 for each district.
The number of votes cast at the same election
in the eleven Congressional districts Of Iowa
was 3I5.2S being an average of 81 ,3S9 votes
for each district. The constitution Of the Unit
I'd States is thus nullilicd in the South, and the
voice of the people is stillcd and the nullicrs,
encouraged by past achievements, are now
seeking to obtain control of the Senate and the
Supreme Court. Under such circunl-
stances the good citizens Of the North
should no longer remain In doubt
as to their duty Regardless of political anli-
ations, they should demand that Congress cx-
ercisc its power TO enforce by appropriate leg
islation the provisions Of the fifteenth amend
mcnt to the constitution, and guarantee to
every citizen of the United States the privi-
lcge to cast his vote free and unmolestcd, in
accordance with his political convictions.

THE HORTICULTURAL VISIT.

The session of the American Horti-
cultural Society, now being held in this
State, will have decided influence for
good upon California. The visit of the
membership is in the nature of an object
lesson. They viii have ocular proof of
our claims. They will see California in
its mid-winter, and cannot fail to make a
comparison with the Arctic rigors of winter
at the East, greatly to our benefit They
viii very naturally reason, if this is mid
winter for California what must her sum-
mer and autumn be? But not all will be
left to speculation in that direction We
are to show them our. citrus fruits, take
them into our orchards, make exhibits be-
fore them of preserved, dried and canned
fruits of the summer and autumn, and by
taking them into and through the chief
valleys of the State we are to enable them
to judge of the soil and its capacity. In
all this effort to lay the State resources
before them, these visitors of course
understand that we are endeavoring to
favorably impress them. They are too
sensible not to know that we are putting
forth our best exertions to convince them
of the equability of California climate,
the fertility Of its soil and of its manifold
advantages over other sections. There is,
therefore, every reason for frankness, and
none for concealments. We shall expect
these gentlemen to return to the East
feeling that they have visited a richly
famed portion of the country, and that
they have not been told fanciful tales con-
corning it. 1t ought to impress them very
forcibly that a people so solicitous to have
strangers come and see and prove for them
selves have faith in their State and are
sincere in all the claims made for it.
There remains but one more day in which
to send exhibits from this section to the
Sacramento agent at the citru; fair to be
held at San Jose in honor of the visit OF
the Eastern horticulturists, and it should
be improved by contributing further ex-
amples Of the productive capacity of this
region. Sacramento should not be second
to any county Of Central and Northern
California represented in that exposition

COLD IN THE WEST.

The Chicago hter-O Ocean of the 18th
inst. declares that it is nearly thirty wears
since the cold and blizzard weather of 1888
has been paralleled in the Mississippi val
ley. Let those of US who complain of the
sharpness of the air in California during
the past two or three weeks, read this ex-
tract and reflect how blessed was our con
dition by comparison. The Hter-O Ocean
says:
1t THE visitation of cold has made a horrid
chapter OF death in tn West and Northwest
The first reports from the stricken region an
| paiilrg as they were, were but mild preface to
the stories OF suffering and death confirmed by
the records OF the last two days. Residents of
large cities, in which are towering blocks of
buildings TO break the force of the wind and
thousands OF fires to temper the extremity of
the atmosphere, can form but an imperfect esti-
mate OF the rigors of winter in OPEN sparsely
| settled country, denuded of sheltering forests
When the frigidity OF the air here makes il i'm
possible TO go many blocks without danger of
freezing exposed portions of the body we are
apt to think the limit of endurance has been
reached, and make pitiful boast of our suffer-
ings Mhen we come presently into the comfort
lug influence of well-heated room. The most
destitute persons among a city's population
nave easy escape from death by freezing even
II only by taking refuge in the cherries shelter
OF chance doorway. 1t is difficult, therefore
luliy 10 comprehend the awful misery endured
70 the death OF one exposed to sudden fierce
blizzard in a desolate region, with nothing to
shlelu MIN from the deadly blast The reports
that come to US seem incredible Short dis
lances offered no security against the risk of
passing from place to place. Not only was
there the intense cold against which to contend:
tnere was also the binding Jury of the storm
that obliterated the familiar way confused the
senses. and left the bewildered adyenturer a
victim 10 the blast within hailipg distance O.
his own door. 0 Va
When the press of Chicago thus speaks
OF Arctic rigors, of which the California
born cannot form any adequate conception.
because they have no experience by which
to set up standard of Judgment ii appears
to be almost impious to complain of the
brief and feeble aspell of cold weather in
this State. The admirable climate of Cal
ltornia was, in fact, never presented in so
| strong light as in the recent cool DAYS.
1t proved its mettle then by checking the
| march of the storm king, and bidding the
ley monarch winter 10 stay his course when
he reached our boundaries. We have nc need
| to apologize to EasterR visitors. Such cold
as we deprecate and assure them is Aun-
usual, phenomenal, unheard of " and all
that in California, they DO not call 'cel6s
at all. They will believe us without MICH
iteration, for by comparison they undey-
stand that winter as they know it has Bet
visited us.

The refusal, which is nothing iess than an

boldly attempts to holster up his plans by
issuing circular, in which he says be is

that daily approaches probability, that the
whole scheme will have to be abandoned.

IT is gratifying to learn from the report
of an official examination made in the
Oroville region that the late cold and
frost has not much, if any, harmed fruit
trees, and that even the young citrus trees
have not suffered to any material extent.
The same report comes from the Marys-
vile and the Chico sections and a like
judgment is rendered for the Sacramento
section. Foliage suffered to some extent
and in places, some of the wood of the
orange trees of last seasons growth, but
the vitality Of the trees has not been
| harmed.

succeed himself has swept them aside"
The party of Mr.. Cleveland swept them
aside long ago. AT the outset it did look
as if the President meant all he said about
non-interference; but in the struggle be-
tween principle and party greed the latter
conquered the President.

removed to = hospital distant from human
habitatieR.
The disease is loathsome; its very name
is repulsive the title applied to the hos
pitai for it inspires dread but these are
reasons why the authorities should take
greater pains to provide in every possible
way for the care and treatment of the I'M
fortunates afflicted with the cont4gion.
All communities well able owe it to
humanity and to the conservation Of the
public health to provide, on the out
break Of the epidemic, such a complete,
well-appointed smallpox hospital; so well
supplied with necessaries, comforts and
| even delicacies, and SO differed with nurses
of the best character and highest skill
and gentlest dispositions, that no one
would be disposed to resist the removal Oh
a member of his family afflicted with the
disease. A county that is exposed to the
risk of the epidemic that is able to bear
the expense and that does not thus pro-
vide in advance for its appearance, is neg
llectful, not only of duty to its people, but
justifes the charge that those upon whom
the duty devolves are not quick with the
commonest humane instincts. Fortu-
nately Sacramento county has escaped the
pestilence thus far. 1t may be it will be
| free fro:n it entirely; it is possible its
smallpox hospital is in readiness, and
that provision has been made in advance
for the best care of the patients who may
be taken there at any moment. But in
the past We are aware that preparation
mas been put off until the last moment, and
has then seldom if ever been adequate
1t should not be now, that the reproach
every citizen of San Francisco to-day feels,
may not attach to the people of this
county.

a FAIR STATEMENTS. T. Dodson, OF
the Red Bluff Sentinel staff, is in Los An
geles. and writes to that journal under date
of the 18th instant, concluding his letter as
follows This part of the country has
been visited for the past month with very
heavy frosts. Ice has been formed from
one-Quarter to five-eighths of an inch thick
on pools of water. The thermometer stood
at 2S0 this morning at Z o'clock. The
orange crop has suffered very heavily, and
in many localities it has been ruined. 1t
has been one continual freeze at night and
thaw during the day for the past month.
1t seems as though the Infinite is teaching
the people lesson in this part of the
country, where they seem to worship the
orange tree, and by false representations
they have beguiled thousands to believe
this to be the only place where these fruits
can be raised. l believe this country has q
glorious future, from San Diego to Wash

rigid chimes will come to the golden west
for homes. Set forth the advantages OF
