GeneraI Earrison and the Soldier.


One of the most agreeable incidents, says
the Indianapolis Journal, that has occurred
during the initiatory scenes Of the cam
paign was the visit of the surviving mem
bers of General Harrison's old regiment,
the Seventeen Indiana, to his residence.
TIE informally of the visit and the deep
feeling expressed in the brief addresses
made by Major Grubbs and by General
Harrison in reply made the event peculiarly
interesting. A well-known gentleman OF
this city said: Il never was more struck
with General Earrison's readiness and ef-
fectiveness as a speaker than in the brief
address he made to his old comrades. That
speech was model" So it was In scarce
~ moro than a DOZEN sentences, each and
every word fitting its place exactly, the
speaker presented series of pictures COW
ering the war period from the departure of
the volunteers to their return home, that
stirred the patriotic memories of soldiers
and citizens alike, and closed by saying:
Il feel that in this campaign upon which
am entering, and which viii undoubtedly
cause careful scrutiny, perhaps unkind and
even malicious assault, all that related 10
my not conspicuous but loyal services with
you in the army may confidently leave,
with my honor, in the hands of the surviv-
ing members Of the SEVENTEEN Indiana,
whatever their political faith may be"
This was received with shouts Of approval
from the old soldiers. The gentleman who
commented on the speech con- pared General
Harrison as ready, graceful and effective
speaker, with General Garfield, who was
remarkable IN this regard. The comparison
is well made. General Harrison possesses
in an extraordinary degree the faculty Of
thinking on his feet and the difficult art OF
saying common place things in graceful
and dignifed way. Many an orator who
can make great speech on great coca
sion or create the impression Of profunSity
by doing out cyclopedic knowledge reveals
the poverty Of his mind and style when re-
CURED 10 speak off hand on con- moa-place
topics. To 90 this gracefully and in q style
that confers its own dignity on ordinary
themes is the highest art Of the orator.
General Harrison possesses this art IN a
notable degree, as viii De discovered later

Political GorrupfIou.

Sacramento is not the only place in the
State where corruptng rings rule in polit-
ical matters. The Davisville Signal, in
speaking of Yolo county, says We are
safein saying that outside of San Francisco
there is not county in the State so rotten
in its politics as Yolo. For the past six
years each election in this county has been
more outrageouSly and corruptly conducted
than the one before it. The SiqnaE is in
possession of evidence which justifies it in
charging that upwards of fifteen thousand
dollars was used IN this county two years
ago in corrupting voters and purchasing
the influence of saloons. The thing has
become established as custom with our
politicians. The raising of corruption
funds has come to be considered legitimate
and necessary expense of CARRYING on a
campaign. The first thing to do is to nom-
mate candidates, and the next thing is to
" bleed them by assessments for the
Doodle necessary to fix the Woodland
hoodlums, the Washington toughs, and the
saloons and saloon bummers all over the
county. How long is this thing to con-
tinue, or where is it to end? Let the sober
thinking and decent citizens everywher
throughout the county ask themselves the
question. We take it for granted that the
enormity of the outrage upon the sacred
privilege of American citizenship inflicted
by this system of politics is apparent to the
naked eye of the most indifferent and ig-
norant. The Signal is redhot and still
a-heating in this matter. The candidate,
no matter to what party he belongs, who
starts in to buy votes this time will have to
have very sly sack if he doesn't want the
Signal to warm him up for all we are
worth

PROFITABLE SMALL FARMS.

What Can Be Done on Thirty Acres in
Ell Dorado County.
In no part of the State are fruit lands
more profitable than in the foothills of
Ell Dorado county, where there are thou
| sands of acres of sunny hillsides covered
with pine, chernise and chaparral that will
produce fruit of the finest quality and great
est abundance. What will buy a five-acre
lot in Los Angeles will buy 50-acre fruit
ranch in Ell Dorado county, which if we'll
cultivated will yield a handsome revenue
annually. In no portion of the globe are
farmers more independent or have more
OF the real enjoyments of life than the
thrifty fruit-growers of the foothills of
I'll Dorado. No portion of the State has a
stronger water supply, or better system of
lrrigatlng canals. The Placerville Demo-
Graf of Saturday says:
Nothing is calculated to convince the
Eastern homeseeker of the value of our
land so readily as figures showing what
IS actually produced on twenty and forty
acre tracts now under cultivation. With a
view to attracting outsiders to Ell Dorado
county we ask our farmer friends to send in
such statistics as they may have at hand.
and those who have not done so will confer
favor by keeping record of receipts and
expenditures for the present season. We
want exact facts. The following is state
ment of the proceeds of o. c. Browns

contained about thirty acres, but the
products as given below came off about
twenty acres, about ten acres of the ranch

Second Time.
Yesterday afternoon quite large number
of the select" gathered at Snowflake Park
to witness the first of the league games
between the Hobo and Barlow combina-
tons. These clubs are composed mostly of
specialized dudes who move in the highest
society. In order to preserve shoe leather
they repaired to downtown livery stable
and hired hacks to convey them to the
ground. They started for the park at
2 P. NJ. headed by an express wagon con-
tanning keg of "stimulants." The follow
ing is the material which was used during
the game: Three five-cent baseballs, an
iron cage especially made for the catch ers at
a blacksmith shop, three four-ounce batsl
four sets of boxing gloves for the field,r',
and sponge. The ride to the grounds
was a merry one. and after consider
able confusion in the selecting of an
umpire and scorer, the game commenced.

the Hobos considerably ratified the Bar.

hands and succeeded in getting the ball be-
fore the batter could get strike at it, and
the umpire would call strike" This pro-
ceeding did not continue long. however, as
a foul tip in the ribs completely settled "
the catcher. The fielders on both sides did
remarkably fine work, and with the ex-
ception of being struck in the mouth by the
bat and swallowing some of their incisors,
they looked well. Whenever a run was
made by either side the umpire would call
time and all would come in and have a
" boose" About twenty runs were made
and it can be judged how the players felt
at the end of the game. One especially
had buzzing in his head as though his
skull had been cracked " with one of the
bats, and the rest were Joyous
The boys did well, however, the HOBBS
