"a LAY SERMON

A correspondent, whose perceptions are
from the focal standpoint of truth, writes
from San Francisco concerning the effort of
the people of this community TO elevate, re :
fine and advance the public taste, and some
what withdraw public and private thought
from the friction of the strife for mere
gain, to the contemplation Of other pur-
poses of our being. His lay sermon on
art" is reproduced in this issue. Its
thoughtful character, its earnest eloquence
and deep sincerity commend it not less
than the truths with which it so ably
deals. 1t derives additional value from
the fact that the writer, nonresident,
regards the output of local energy to cul-
tivate public taste in this State, and en-
large the area of intelligence upon art
from neither too near nor too distant a
point of view of the object around which
the energy rallies, that is put forth by a
very considerable number of our people in
the direction indicated.
The paper commands respect for the
sincerity of its tone, and admiration for
the penetration Ct its author, and the fine
admixture Of vigor and gentleness that
charscterizes it. 1t will serve, let us hope
too encourage to tireless labors and re-
newed energy, every person who is or may
be engaged in the effort to make the full.

a SERIOUS CHARGE.

A very serious charge has been laid at
the door of one of our citizens, that will
arouse community attention and awaken
deep interest in the development of the
truth. 1t is charged by the Grand Jurors
that at the recent city election the citizen
named in the Indictment criminally put
into the pallot-box in one of the precincts
number of ballots, with the intention
that they should be counted as genuine
votes, regularly cast. The crimes against
the ballot-box are among the most heinous
known to our system, for they strike at the
portals of the citadel of our liberties.
The act that criminally negatives an
honest ballot is that of robbery. 1t robs
some citizen of the most sacred right he
enjoys-the right to a voice in determining
the order and character of the govern
ment under which he must live. There
is, therefore, no crime that deserves to be
more severely punished, or that should be
more diligently searched out. Common
justice demands that judgment should be
suspended in the particular case referred
to, until full, fair and unbiased judicial
investigation can be had. The people will
not consent that any innocent man shall
be punished, nor will they tolerate any
weakness of endeavor to unearth crime
against the ballot, or to administer pun
ishment to the guilty.

IT is so very seldom that the New York
Herald says a really good thing that we do
not resist the temptation to quote from it
this bit Of political wisdom:
The plain truth of politics is that the two
great parties seem to be getting along pretty
well without leaders. The average American
seldom takes his opinions at second hand The
pres collates statistics all subjects under dis
cussion, and If it is independent as the Herald
Is, IL throws its columns wide open to both
sides. The farmer, the mechanic, the artisan

possibly. For nothing is more certainly
established than this, that the era of polit-
ieal independence has opened, and that of
domination by political "leaders" has
passed. He will lead now whom the peo-
pie for convenience sake choose, bat only
so far as they determine. The leaders
whip has very little of terror in it now for
the party man for chiefs party will have,
eminent opponents it must have, but mas
tiers it will not much tolerate in this day
of independent thinking.

WHEN the New York Sun said, as it did
the other day, that the country has yet to
learn just what kind of man President
Harrison is, it uttered the thought of most
people. He is not, evidently, going to be
President of sensations, but he certainly
will prove one of surprises in
the way of independence, and of freedom
from party domination, and Of perfect in
difference to Threats and intimidation.
Even the New York Times, which tip
tilted its lofty nose at Harrison the candi-
date, is forced by conviction to admit that
Harrison, the President, will he "a safe
man." Well, that is what the country
wants-the safe man. in whom 1t can re.
pose trust unreservedly. But we read the
indications of his character with poor re-
suits If he does not prove as reso,ute as he
is safe; as courageous in civil as he was in
military life; as discreet and self-con-
tanned as President as he was as lawyer i:
and as great terror to venality public

SOME surprise is finding expression that
the Grand Jury, after making report to
the Superior Court in this month, should
have adjourned to meet in the middle OF
next November, unless sooner called to-
gether by the foreman of that body. The
jury has the right to sit the year out, if it
is so minded. That it should adjourn for
long time, subject to special call, means,
therefore, no more than that the jury pro-
poses to be ready to respond TO the call OF
any need for the suppression of crime. 1t
has precedent for its action in the custom
of the Grand Juries Of San Francisco,
which frequently hold to their work from
the hour of appointment until new jury
is impaneled. 1t can do no harm to any
one for the jury to continue its existence
through the year. 1t costs the county
nothing, and puts in the hands of the Of
fcials convenient means for unearthing
serious offenses.

The Hinderance to Cooperation.

The advocate of cooperation holds out
the expectation of great benefit to the
community by the adoption of that system,
especially when applied to distribution
One may ask those who prefer this method
If you desire to cooperate, why do you
not cooperate? There is nothing to pre-
vent, except the one fact which is com.
monty overlooked, namely, that the
small margin of profit which now
suffices to maintain the great shops of
this country, dealing upon the cash
system and upon the principle OF
large sales and small profits, leave little OF
no fraction to be saved by those who
choose to cooperate in some other way
than by buying at such shop.-Edpard

THE San Francisco Call asks, Is art de-
clining?" and answers negatively. This
is true response. The study of art is
more general to-day than at any previous
time in modern history. 1t may be that
it is not as thorough Just now, and it is
true that great deal is palmed off in the
name of art that is base metal. 1t is true
also that there is not that quick apprecia-
ton by the masses Of high art work and
its influence in the scheme of civilization
that corresponds to public interest in the
progressive marches of science and in in
yention. But that art is declining is not
true, for the products of its disciples are
in evidence to the contrary. The world
turns more to commerce just now than to
art, but neither does that indicate de-
cline. Art is one of pthe units of civiliza-
ton and does not suffer retrogressior.It
may appear at times that there is de-
cadence, but such apparent retrogressive
movements are only incidents, temporary
vibrations, and do not indicate turning
back upon the path. The m ovement of
human activity is forward, and must so
continue, and it is therefore impossible
that art, one of the elements of progress,
can suffer real decadence.

IT is said that by accident discovery
has been made in Peru that the juice of
plant indigenous to that country, known as
the s'wagney'' or ''peuca,' will cure hydro
phobia. A person who had been bitten by
rabid animal accidentally swallowed
some of the juice of the plant; from that
moment the symptoms of developing hydro
phobia began to disappear. New doses
were then administered, and a complete
cure was effected. 1t greatly to be hoped
that this story is neither fiction nor exag-
geration. The innoculation remedy of
Pasteur is not determined to be specific.
1t is a painful and an exasperaiingly slow
and costly process in application, and
leaves the patient under the torturing
doubt of non-eficacy.
WHILE rail and other highways are
suffering under the pIenteous rainfall, the
face of mother earth reioices and the heart
of the producer is made glad. The wash
outs" and "landslidesp here and there, and
the temporary Interruptions in commune
cation, are as nothing compared to the
wealth Of benefit the State takes by reason
OF the storms Of the week.

Had mastered them and were dwelling

arise to that high appreciation, which will

On the principle that the greater includes
the less, therefore the works of Phidias
must find universal appreciation. The
greatest works of that greatest of masters
may be seen in the London Museum on
what is known as the Elgin Marbles, in
room especially constructed for their exhi-
bition. There are within the sound of
cannon from these marbles six million peo-
pie, and yet it is doubtful if twenty-five
thousand, or fifty thousand at the outside,
of these six millions have ever visited the
Elgin Rooms There are thirty-fve mill
ion people on the British Islands, and per-
haps not one hundred thousand Of all these
have ever seen these greatest works Of the
greatest sculptor the human race has pro-
duced. There is an apparent universal
love of the sublime and stupendous in
nature. Men and women generally pro-
fess love of nature. Many travel by sea
and by land to contemplate the great
masterpieces of Gods handIwork, and yet
thousands and hundreds of thousands pass
through the city of Buffalo without caring
to stop to visit Niagara, and of the million
and a half inhabitants residing in the State
of California to-day not ten thousand of
them have ever visited the Yosemite val
ley.

The ordinary expenditures for the same
