THE people of San Francisco have been
justly exercised over the number and
fire quency of accidents on their cable
roads, and public indignation has been
especially directed against the absence in
the grip dummies OF guards to protect
people from being crushed under them.
Some Of the most signal accidents have
been ascribed to this want of security,
and the Supervisors have been calling for
inventions to meet the requirement. A
number of appliances have been submit
ted and tried. One of these was consid-
cred 60 perfect that the inventor threw
himself before dummy armed with his
safeguard, and suffered no further incon.
venience than the soiling of his clothing.
We should consider this most satisfac.
tory test. A number of communications
have been sent to this Office on the SUBJ
ject Of applying to our own cable roads
this kind of protection. The subject is
worthy of consideration. The cable
roads OF this city have been particularly
exempt from accidents. They have
been in operation here now nearly five
years, and no one has ever yet been
crushed under the dummies as in San
Francisco. The dummies OF the new
cable sys EN- are SCI 60 low that per-
son falling in front OF them could not go
under the platform, and below that still
is a band which almost grazes the
ground. The wheels are protected by a
pipe guard, and it is difficult to see how
any one could get under them.

THE Chinese purchase in Lower Cali
fornia seems to have been contaminated,
and it is now stated that large number
of Cinnamon will be sent from this State
to work the mines included in the deal.
Appearances indicate that Lower Cali
fornia will be turned into Chinese col.
ony. We look with much SUSPICION
upon the movement, and will "miss our
guess" if mining as an incident and
smuggling coolies into California az a
concrete fact do not prove to be at the
bottom of the transaction. The Govern
ment should keep close watch upon the
Lower California boundary line.

Case of ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

SALTWATER, Miss, June l2.-Colonel
Younger, the notorious outlaw, who is
in the penitentiary here with his two
brothers, was somewhat amused to hear
of his own death out in Wyoming, and
was at loss to account for the report
until he remembered that Cheyenne has,
for some time, been the headquarters for
the modern "Joe Mulhatton." He thinks
he would be willing to run the risk of be-
ing drowned if he could only be released
from States prison.

THE local Democratic organ gravely in
forms it's readers that 'the Republican
party is steadily drifting to the rear"
Let's see. About seven months ago this
country elected a Republican President
and Republican House in addition to
the Senate, which was already under
Republican control. Three new States
certainly and probably all four, will shortly
elect Republican State governments, Re-
publican United States Senators and Re-
publican members of the House. If this
is drifting to the rear, then we wish to be
understood as favoring the proposition to
"Let 'er drift"
So We do inform our readers, and,
what is more, we propose to stick by our
declar alton. The State of New York, at
the sa me time that it gave Harrison, Re-
publican, about thirteen thousand ma
jority for President over Cleveland,
Democrat, gave Hill, Democrat, nearly
twenty thousand majority over Warner
Miller, Republican, for Governor. II
Hill had been the Democratic nominee
for President, he would have carried
New York by fifty thousand. As to the
new States, Mr.. H. NJ. Naglee, prom
inent Montana Republican, says that the
marplot interferences of Mr.. Russell
Harrison, and the nepotism Of the Presi'
dent, have secured that State to the
Democracy, and that means two new
Democratic Senators and Democratic
Representative, and three electoral votes
10 1892 for the Democratic candidate for
President. AS to the other three new
States, we have more than an equal
chance of carving two of them.

Miss Atkins to tea with her every Sunday;
and if Edward were not at home, she was
offended and stiff with him for the rest OF
the week. This soon cut INTO the
practice of Sunday walks with LizEy.
And when Mr.. Atkins invited him to-
his house, and began TO treat him with
favor. and throw out hints about a partner
ship, Mrs. Primrose was n t backward in
explaining circumstantially TO her son that II
he missed this chance he might never have
another. and that to refuse Miss Atkins'S
hand would be to forfeit his situation and his
hope of advancement. 1t was the old story
of love on the one side, worldly fortune On
the other, just as it has been told so many
times of princes and MOBILES and gentlemen
and ladies'. all in the most romantic circum-
stances. And here, although my hero and
heroine were of humble birth and sordh
environment. the issues were exactly the
same-A heart TO be broken, a soul to b
lost or saved, a life to be crowned with
happiness or drowned in overwhelming WOO.
Edward, although sorely tempted, did not
succumb without a struggle. But 1t could
not be denied that he saw more and more
clearly a. days went on that LizZy's friends
and surroundings were very incongruous
with his own. Lizzy herself was sweet and
good and gentle, but there were plenty OF
girls Che said) like her and these qualities
did not make up for the undesirableness OF
her relations. He had been once to visit the
attic in which she lived, and he had been I'M
speakably disguised by The appearance OF her
grandparents. They were certainly snuny'
dirty, drunken and disreputable old people,
whom Edward shuddered TO contrast with
his prim. delicate, nAtty little mother and
the worst of It was that Lizzy did not seem 10
be aAhamed of them. And then there was
that troublesome. sharp-faced urchin, who
played practical jokes upon Edwards own
s.cred person-the wretched little brother
who gave LizEy 30 much trouble and was
such an expense. The discontinued lover had

Lizzy thought that she had never been so

light. "Oh, Edward, il is so kind of you to
bring me here! feel as if l was in ewing"

deigned to remark. He stole his arm round

"Oh, yes, Edward, indeed l am sure you
will" said the girl, clasping both her hands
over his arm and looking up at him with a
glance of perfect confidence. And I'm
sorry your mother didn't like the frock."
Something not so SNOWY would be better
another time said Edward, in a dictatorial
way. And you just keep quiet for a bit,
and I'll bring mother round"
But although he spoke 80 decisively, he
was not at all sure Of his ability to bring
mother round" Mrs. Primrose was ambitious
for her son. She had noticed that his en-
ployer's daughter, Susan Atkins, seemed to
be attracted by Edwards blue eyes, neat,
shining hair aud rudy complexion and
although Miss Atkins, who was joviAl and
bouncing, did not fulfil all Mrs. Primrose's
ideals, still the connection" would be so
good for Edwards future that she sacrificed
personal prediction to pride. She asked

Edward held his peace. But he did not go
to meet Lizzy that afternoon at the usual
trysting- place. He told himself that he could
not possibly leave his mother and Miss Atkins.
Meanwhile Lizzy hung about the streets in
her new pink frock, waiting for the lover who
did not concentrating, although as the after
noon wore on the sky clouded over and heavy
drops of rain began to fall. She was obliged
to go nome at last, and reached it drenched
to the skin. with her new fuery ruined, and
her heart bursting with grief. Her home
coming WAS disastrous. Her grandparents
had failed in getting a bottle of gin
"on tick" and we're raging like wild
beasts ~despoiled of prey. Little Dick
had hidden himself under the bed for
safety, but no such resource remained to LIZ;
she was seized on as soon as she entered the
room, called an ungrateful hussy, pitched
and shaken by her grandmother, and beaten
with a stick by her indignant grandfather.
When at last they let her go she crept away to
bed, her bones aching. her limbs trembling
beneath her; the poor pink frock was torn
and wet and soiled. and could never be worn
again. The Sunday that was to have been
so joyous was a failure after all. Lizzy could

AS for Lizzy, the novelty of her position
oVercame her. She had never been to chapel
before, aud very seldom to church. She did
not know exactly when to stand up and when
TO Sit down. She could not lind her place in
the Bible that was handed to her across the
pews, and she knocked down her hymn-boo
with q bang that drew the eyes of the whole
