CADETS ARRESTED.
Some of the Young Men Have a Real
Soldiers Experience

Last evening the cadet company attached to
the local militia held a short business meeting
previous to the regular drill. Several of the
members were noticed to be attired in their
''sunday-go-to-meeting' clothes and their pat
ent-leather shoes were carefully incased in rub
Der overshoes. Their earnest desire for hasty
completion of the business of the evening
aroused the suspicion of the officers present that
something was on foot, and consequently their
actions were closely watched As soon as the
meeting adjourned and the members began to
fall in for drill, the dressed-up members sidled
out the door and made a hurried escape from
the building. They evidently thought that by
leaving before the company was formed that
their absence would not be noticed and thew
would escape a tiresome drill. But such was not
armory before provost guard was formed and
started in pursuit of the escapes. A lively chase
up and down X street, into stores, cellas and
stalrWays ensued. The noise attracted many
citizens upon the streets, and the sight of mill
tamen hurrying along gave rise to all sorts of
rumorS, trom riot in Chinatown to an attempt
to rob the armory. After chase of few blocks
several were captured and taken back to drill
Another squad proceeded to q hall where a
dancing party was in progress, and there in the
llludle OF & waltz iour gay young soldiers were
found. Inc guard showed no mercy. they ar
rested the culprits, and four ladies found them
selves without paItners. When the escapes
were returned to the aImory they hGd the pleas.
ure OF enjoying lively drll thai they had CON
templated escaping. What was more severe
was the guying they received when they re-
turned 70 their partners in the hall. They say
they VIII drill next Friday evening.

The Governor has issued the following par
dons for reasons stated: Samuel Ault, convicted
Of burglary in the second degree, in the Superior
Court of San Francisco. in August 1887. and
sentenced to term of three years in the House
Of Correction. The youth of Ault at the time
of his conviction, his previous good character
AID the fact that he does not belong to the
criminal class, all incline me to the belief that
ne mas been sufficiently punished, and that
longer incarceration would not more fully sflb-
serve the ends OF justice. The prosecuting At
Iorney, 4. b StOnehlll. and the Judge who
sentenced him, ID. J. Murphy, and numerous
other citizens in good standing, have petitioned

OF curing him of the pernicious vice that was

The Electric Railway,

1t was the intention of the officers of the Cen
tral Street Railway Company to have made a
trial trip with the new electric car this after
noon, but careful inspection of the track since
the arrival of the car shows that it is not yet in
proper condition 1t is found that the guards on
the car run out farther than anticipated, and
that in some places on street the cobbles at the
side of the track are too high for the TO pass
without the guards striking. The trial trip will
therefore not be made until some time during
the early part of next week, by which time the
difficulty viii have been remedied.

thing he buys. owing to the benefits Of
a protective tariff, that he can not af-

himself

cottage
The interior was ceiled with cotton
cloth, but there were no little nicely
made cOnyeniences: no sink; no cup
board; no partition; no porch over the
door. All was in one room and all was
cheap and rough.
Outside. the view was no more cheer
ing. The shanty stood well ur On the
Hill or mountain. Below, and for lit.
tie distance, both in front and in the
rear, was piece of tolerably level
ground. perhaps forty acres in all, which
declined gently to the west, ending in a
ravine, beyond which the earth became
broken and rocky again.
Above the shanty the ground sloped
upwards with sharper pitch for few
hundred feet and then rose rapidly, be-
coming more and more precipitous, un-
til it reached the summit a third of a
mile away.
In places portions of the solid rock
foundation projected through the bar
rem soil, while in others immense de.
tachcd powders, weighing hundreds Of
tons, lay only slightly imbedded in the
earth and looking as if push would
send them crashing down the mountain
side.
Here and there stood digger pine,
its blue-green spines looking, in the dis.
lance, like lunches of thick smoke.
These. with a few scattering white
oaks, half denuded of their limbs by
the tempcsts, and an occasional clumr

THE HARRISON LETTER.
A Weak Appeal to the Prejudice Of tn
American People.

Weak Appeal to the Prejudice of the
American People.
Accepting painful situation, Cen
eral Harrison has made an out-and-
out appeal to the prejudices OF the
American people. In supporting that
exhortation he would still have the in
ielligent electors believe he pos
sesses conscience and is guided by it.
The shifts by which the uneasiness OF
this monitor is allayed may be pointed
to as the chief matter Of interest in the
Republican letter of acceptance.
General Harrison, while saying that
protection is assailed as unconstitu-
tional in the law and vicious in prin-
ciple," knows that protection is UNI
constitutional.
He knows, when he says the Demo
Gratis would put taxation on a purely
revenue basis" that their aspiration is
righteous.
He does not .'stop to refute the the
ory' that the consumer pays the tax,
whether it be called duty or an ex-
IlSc. lag huO"o liz SslA IOt ISiulC IASLb
theory or that fact.
He knows Democrats are proud to
assert that the consumer pays the tax.
To spend time fastening SO much COM
mon sense on them is, politically, a
poor use OF his eloquence.
General Harrison knows that IAN
increased Offering of foreign goods in
our markets" carries with it an in
creased offering of our goods in foreign
markets. Elsewise, Europe would give
us her goods. He knows less work and
lower wages could not come from such
an exchange, but rather more work and
higher wages.
General Harrison knows the surplus
is $3.50, 600, 600, and avoids making a
figure. He knows it could not be
spent in buying bonds, as he ad-
vises, without bulling bonds to 200 or
more.
He knows the free whisky plank OF
the Chicago platform is immoral, and
he declares the taxes can be SO mag
nified that the present whisky excise
may be retained. He knows the sur
plus is not needlessly boarded by
the Secretary, and lie knows, better
than most people, that the 500, 0OO,-
600 can not be safely withdrawn from
deposit in the circulation of the coun-
try.
He knows that the high tariff in
| ereases the importation OF foreign la,
Dor. lie admits that free trade would
