THANKSGIVING ABROAD,
A stranded steamer.

BAN FRANCISCO, November 2S.--No
further news has been received Of the
steamer Protection, which went ashore
at Fort Bragg yesterday. The crew has
been landed safely, but there seems to
be little show of getting the steamer off.
The Protection was new steamer, hay-
ing been built in 1888 by Hansen &
Frazer, of this city. She was owned by
W. 8. Ray and others, was 1870 feet in
length, SO feet in breadth of beam and
II feet in depth Of hold. She had loaded
and was on her way out when she
struck. She was commanded by Cap
tain Levison, in whom her owners had
the greatest confidence.

CALIFORNIA is not always happy in the
delegates she sends to National Conyen-
tions. She seems to be particularly un-
fortunate In some of those who are ac-
credited to the Silver Convention now in
session st st. Louis. When it is stated
that Frank Pixley is one, we need not
feel astonished at any kind of monkey
business that may occur to make
Californians blush. This crank had
scarcely had time to warm his
seat before he made scene.
Governor Hills name was lugged
into discussion, and that gentleman
was at once aasailed by Plxley and Ed.
Curtis in mest indecent manner. As
Governor Hill is not member of the
Convention, nor guilty Of anything that
we have heard of to antsgonizs the great
object of the Convention, the restoration
of silver to it's old standard with gold,
the assault would seem to be not only
gratuitous, but animated by partisan
motives of the meanest character. 1t is
needless to say that Pixley does not
represent the people Of this State
in any sense. He got into the Silver
Convention by the appointment Of Gov
ernor Waterman. For years his neigh
bors have refused to send him to any
political convention, Notwithstanding he
always turned up in Republican State
Conventions as delegate by proxy from
some remote county where he was but
little known. His peculiar methods
have fastened upon him the soubriquel
of "Sam'l of Posen." The attack o!
this man and & few others upon
the Governor Of New York, if for politi
, cal effect, may be turned into danger
/ Gus boomerang. Whatever may be Hill'i
opinions upon the subject of remonetiz
, ing silver, he certainly can not be ar
raigned for having done anything in hi
official capacity to degrade it. How is i

LEST it might be thought that Los
Angeles is the only California city into
which Eastern poultry is imported. we
reproduce a plaint fromsthe San Fran
cisco Chronicle, which shows the disease
to be general:
It does not speak we'll for the industry

try should be sent cut from the East to
nearly every town in the State. In no
State in the Union can chickens and tur-
keys be raised with smaller percentage
Of loss than here, and yet one pays TWEEN.

giving turkey and four bits a dozen for
eggs that can be sworn by.
What has got into the farmers OF Cali
fornia, anyhow? is the day of small
things 90 far past for them that they not
only disdain to raise vegetables, bat
even to encourage the activities OF the
barnyard? 1t is very queer kind OF
economy. Every dollar that goes out OF
this State for eastern fowls il not only
the loss of that dollar but the loss Of an
other dollar that would have been ad-
vantagsously spent in the local heneries.
We noted yesterday the arrival of car
from Wisconsin with nearly 1000
chickens on board. That represents
81, 900 of dead loss to the farmers of this
vicinity. Stupid is no name for this
kind Of farming policy. The holidays
will cost US st least $4,000 for poultry,
and every dollar Of this might have been
kept in circulation here if our farmers
would pay little attention to the rais-
ing Of fowls.
