COMPROMISE BY CONSOLIDATION.

The EAGLE, as all good disinterested
citizens do, no doubt, regrets the apparent
| conflict interests which have, all unex-
pected arisen between the old street rail-
way system of the city and the newer cleo
trio line system That there should be
any antagonism is deplored, especially by
all those who appreciate how necessary
harmony is and how quickly and easily
conflicts envolve others, arraying one in
terest ag ainst another to the reuarding of
all and to the detriment of the city at
large. When prosperity is at the food
unity prevails without the least effort, it
becomes a self evolved sequence: but the
great value of harmony and unity. the
time when it can be made the most effica
cious. is during the ebb tide.
The EAGLE would be very much graft
fled, as is its wont, to step into the
breach and prevent open rupture or even
way. If the status of affairs is such as not
to admit of compromise, OR such as no
compromise could satisfactorily cover,
why would not a consolidation of the two
systems upon an equitable basis prove a
good thing; not only a profitable but an
equitable step. A consolidation covered
by prorated stock, on ratio of ascertained
values, would in the first place, put all in
terests in such a shape as to render a con-
fiict impossible. and would by doing away
with double service to certain points and
looping off closely parallelling tracks
in some places, render the
system as a whole, more eco
nomical and better paying, while the
property in the event of desire to sell as
whole would be much more negotiable
property than if it remained in piece-meal
with its present competitions and possible
future misunderstanding and rivalries.
Again, the individual stakeholder in the
consolidated scheme would surely find his
interest enhanced in value. Can not. will
not the owners of those properties at least
consider the suggestions here made, being
assured that they come of no Interior mo-
tive or personal interest whatsoever, but
from sincere desire to serve the i'm
portant interests involved, no less than to
serve the city's welfare, as also the
pecuniary interest of the individuals
whose money has been invested in these
enterprises.

THE GREAT HORROR,
Sacramentans With Friends In the Flood
District-Relief Fund Started

District-Relief Fund Started.
The dispatches from the Eastern flooded
districts that appeared in the SUNDAY
UNION were of the most agonizing charac-
ter. Those printed in the RECORD UNION
this morning surpass them in horror, utter
woe, and the recital of the most narrowing
details. The fancy of Verne nor the i'm
agination Of Hugo could not conceive of
such awful sorrows as are detailed in our
Geographic columns. The feeling of SYM
pathy in this city is strong, deep and very
tender. Sacramento never yet has turned
deaf ear to the cry of distress. Now. in
the midst of the greatest disaster of the
century, the appeal Of the homeless and
starving will not go unheeded here.
That there may be the speediest response
possible, the RECORD UNION elsewhere an
nounces that its business department has
organized fund to which payments should
be added to-day by the people. to be for
warded at once to Governor Beaver to be
applied to the relief of immediate distress.
This paper cares nothing for the credit but
only wishes to furnish the most speedy
means for the reception of the voluntary
offerings of the people, and the most rapid
agency for sending on the funds as Sacra-
mento's offering.
Contributions paid into this Office will be
recelpted for, the amount of each donation
published, and the sum telegraphed at once
TO Governor Beaver. The purse ought to be
large, and every child and adult in the
Capital City should contribute somethingto
it. There are 10000 homeless and bereaved
people to be cared for and sheltered, and in
such work Sacramento should do its
share.
Among the Sacramentans who have
friends at and in the immediate vicinity of
the center of the disaster (Johnstown) are:
K. Devlin has two brothers, Frank, Sr., and
John, Sr., and their sons, Frank J. and
John, Jr:, and relative, John McDermott,
all OF whom resided in Johnstown, and
from whom no news can be had. 1t is
feared that they are lost c. r. Hinch-
mans mother, four brothers, sister and her
family resided in that city He can gain
no tidings of their fate. John Gageby's
family lived there, also, and he cannot as
certain whether or not they are lost. Alex
little has a brother and sister reported
among the missing at Johnstown. John
Flanagan last night received dispatches
that the members of his family in the de-
stroyed city were among the saved. NJ. r.
Rose last evening received dispatch via
Chattanooga that his nephew, Harry Rose
the District Attorney at Johnstown, was
drowned in the flood The father of Geo.
w. Ficks resided in one of the flooded vii
lagos, and no tidings of his fate can be
gained as vet

Professor Marks, Lectures.

Professor Marks gave his Introductory
lecture on Bible Lands at the Central NJ.
f. Church last night to crowded house.
The audience was taken rapidly over the
land from Dan to Beersheba, with the aid
OF birds eye view of the country. Two
fine large paintings of Jerusalem, the old
city and the present city, 10 feet by IS feet,
were suspended before the audience. Pro-
fessor Marks paintings are marvels of
beauty and accuracy. They are by his own
hand. and would be creGitable anywhere.
He has fifty paintings to be shown at the
two lectures, besides relics, curios, CO.'S
tunes, etc. The lecture tonight will be on
Jerusalem and the other cities of the Lord.
The Temple will be described, and many
interesting places shown. Professor Marks
is highly entertaining speaker, and more
instrucling and fascinating lectures have
probably never been given in this city.
Tickets are 25 cents.

"sINGLE TAX" DOCTRINE.
Henry Georges Ideas Promulgated by an
Ardent Disciple.


Ardent Disciple.
A fair-sized audience assembled at Tur-
ner Hall last night to listen to lecture
upon the subject of The Single Tax" by
II. L. Pleace of San Francisco. The lee
ture was under the auspices of the Single
Tax Society Of California. and its object
was the dissemination of the gospel of the
society.
The fundamental principle of the single
tax" idea is that the people who own the
land should be the only people to pay any
tax 10 the Government. 1t is claimed that
it is not right for man 10 be taxed on ac-
count of manufactured articles or in any
other way as the result of his labor The
personal property tax, the speaker said,
was an iniquity and an injustice on natural
human rights. The road tax was also
| claimed to be naturally unjust.
The various other taxes were reviewed
and the speaker undertook to show that
each and every one-save "the single tax 3"
on land-was an iniquitous and unneces-
sary burden.
The speaker presented his views forcibly
and was favored with the respectful atten-
| ton of the audience throughout his adj
dress.
1t is understood that Thomas G. Sher-
| man, of New York, an ardent disciple of
Henry George, now sojourning in San
Francisco, has made an engagement 10
speak in Sacramento, under the auspices
OF the Single Tax Society, in the near
| future.

six weeks ago she gave birth TO a baby girl.
and since that time has been living on the
charitable people in the Capital.
The case is particularly sad one. About
three years ago the mother of little Minnie
died and she and her brother were left in
care of their father, who was unable to take
care Of them. Little Minnie was adopted
by Mrs. Harry Inwall, who is well known
in Oakland for her charitable deeds. That
lady had organized drum corps, and the
little girl was taught to beat drum.
Young Adams, who manipulated the bass
drum, became infatuated with Minnie, and
was constantly in her company, and later,
by advice, he married the girl Mrs. Ad-
ans and her baby have returned to the In
wall domicile, and steps will be taken to
compel the young man to care for his fam

WELL, HERE GOES"
Thomas T. Lewis Attempts to End His
Life by Drinking Laudanum.

About 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon
Thomas 7. Lewis, an Old steamboat run
ner, was standing on the sidewalk in front
of saloon on Front street, talking to
John Black. He suddenly took small
bottle from his pocket, and with the excla-
nation: We'll, here goes" he drained
the contents of the bottle. His companion
asked him what he had taken and he re-
piled: Poison" He soon showed signs
of stupetication, and Black, By this time
quite alarmed, walked him to the police
station. Here it was discovered that the
deadly potion which Lewis had taken was
laudanum-but that he had very sensibly
taken only about enough to put him in fair
condition for a good nap. He was given
an emetic, the prompt action of which
foiled the hopes of grim death for new
victim.
1t is said that domestic troubles were the
cause of Lewis dangerous tipple. His
wife lately began a suit against him for
divorce, and il is said that this fact has
affected his mental being to considerable
degree.
