THE NINTH STRAIGHT VICTORY.
HOW THE SENATORS WON IT FROM

when will they shop?' was the qnes
ton asked by scores of p rsons after yes
terday's ball game, when tie Sacramento
Club had won its ninth success. We victory
The question could not be easily A. swered
but many were inclined to believe IL was
case of never STOP"
The San Franciscos didn't even pretend
to be in the contest yesterday after the first
inning. They commenced making errors
almost as soon as play had been called, and
these, together with Chase's wild and inef-
fective delivery, and the sharp batting of
tine home team, netted eleven runs for the
Sacramentos in the first three innings.
This settled the contest, and the rest of
the game was played merely to entertain
the audience and pass away time. The
score was to Is at the end of the game,
which was called by the umpire after
the eighth inning, in order that the out
going train for Stockton might be boarded
by the Sacramentos, who will play in
Stockton this morning
There was large crowd present, and the
ladies turned out in goodly numbers, real
izing that it was the last chance they had
to be admitted free to the grounds.
Coughlin was in the box for the Sacra-
mentos, and his pitching was watched
with interest. Barring his unsteadiness,
he twirled an excellent game, and per-
mitted but five of the opposing nine to hit
him safely, and these few were singles.
He became somewhat nervous in the third
and fourth innings and could not get the
hQ sol " tho nlafa Siy ant
to first base on balls, and four of the San
Franciscos' runs were made in these two
innings. Coughlin is, nevertheless, a
pitcher Of considerable merit, and one who
has every curve needed to deceive bats
man. He, with Harper and Hoffman, can
surely win the pennant for Sacramento
provided they are supported properly, and
it is but reasonable to suppose that they
will be.
Bowman proved to Coughlin that he is
able to handle his delivery, and this fact
will no doubt give the new pitcher more
confidence hereafter.
Chase proved to be too wesk against such
batters as opposed him. and he gave way
to Lookabaugh in the third inning.
Roberts batting was noticeable feature
of the game, and the faultless handling of
eleven chances by Reitz was but fair
sample of the kind of ball he usually plays.
Stapleton guarded the initial, taking good
care to stop all balls that came within his
reach.
Godar, at third, who does not have many
plays, but generally handles the ball
promptly when an opportunity presents,
had six chances yesterday, and it was due
to his quickness and accurate throwing that
two of The prettiest double plays ever seen
were made. He, Reitz and Stapieton did
the quick work.
During the game Captain Ebright filed
written protest with the scorer, in which
he claimed that Coughlin was ineligible to
pitch for the Sacramentos. Following is
the snore.

EDS. REcoRD-U UNION: 1t is not uncom-
mon, in the written and spoken literature
of our city, to say that We have had enough
of talk; and assure you that it requires
all my moral and intellectual courage to
begin Tor rebegin) the agitation of any SUBJ
ject that deem of the very highest i'm
portance. But when an important move
ment is intended to be proposed-with all
Difference to all men-I venture to say that
there is but one way. That way is to state
tine movement aud demonstrate its i'm.
portance in human language, briefly, but
of sufficient length to make the PROPOSE
ton and its demonstration plain to those to
whom ii is made.
When state that the movement is irri-
cation for this county, must modify it at
once. probably, in order to get hearing.
The modification then is, plainly. that this
county, not being convinced of the value
of running ditch water, is not ready for
action in favor of it in this form, and will
not be ready without much argument and
clear illustration. Hence, it is not pro.
Sacramento daily record-union., 1890-07-20
posed to 60 so far at present as the intro

posed to go so far at present as the intro
duction of water at the present time.
The movement propose is TO set ready
for lis introduction, leaving the matser o1
actusl Introduction to the conclusions OF
| the minds, after observations of what Other
| communities have done and are doing, and
OF arguments to be presented in the course
of the consideration of the question.
The alternative is the introduction of
water ourselves, as time will demonstrate
Ii introduced in bitches by rich companies
there will be no way of getting it in ex-
cept by paying the prices that these bodies
place upon it. In some localities in this
State it has been shown that miners
inch of water will irrigate about seven
acres OF land. In our county, if man
owns twenty acres, it would be sufficient
II he owns three miners inches of water,
or stock in company or corporation that
would give him this quantity free for his
farm.
While farm is not worthless without
water, it is well known that it is at least
three times as productive if it have it for
use. The water should attain in our coun-
ty the same status as the land, and be
part of it. and be bought and sold with it.
To get such a supply it is very important
that we should be ready to avail of all op-
portunities. 1t is the history of other
counties that water could be bought some
years ago almost for song, but its value
not having been then demonstrated the
opportunity slipped away.
The movements l would suggest, is to
form the county into an irrigation district
and be ready in the future, when other
counties have demonstrated its wisdom
or when solid argument shall convince |
people OF Its importance-to secure from
those having water for sale, say in bitches,
what we must pay more for if we neglect |
such preparedness
1t will take some time to convince our
citizens that irrigation by bitches will not
produce sickness. 1t will be hard work
to convince many that windmills, horse |
aid other powers will not be better and |
cheaper than having the water turned in q |
stream by our doors.
1t may be difficult task to induce men |
to own one inch of water for every seven |
acres of land, and 10 convince them that |
thel Elm may be the differences between yeo- |
men and tenants.
While the light is being stricken out by I
argument and expression, it would be well |
and inexpensive to prepare for an emerg-
ency by forming an irrigation district and |
when we shall have reached wise conclu-
sions, we will be ready for action.
These arguments can be presented and |
observations made better before the time
comes for action than afterward; and be-
sides, when the time and opportunity
comes for action people may not linger
while we debate it, and hence suffer their
irrel arabic loss. F. M. SHIELDS.

THEY BOTH LIKE 1T.
Who Has the Better Right to Apply the
Term "Westerno to a Hotal

Who Has the Better Right to Apply the
Term western" to a Hotel.
There are rival hotel-keepers in this city
who feel competent to answer the old-time
stage conundrum, Whats in name"
They evidently think there ls great deal
in name, under certain circumstances.
Recently the new proprietors of the State
House Hotel concluded to change its name
to the Great Western" Hotel. If there is
one thing on earth dear to the heart of
William Land it is the title of Western"
by which his hotel has been known for
about quarter of century. He has sung
its praises at all times and under all cir
cums'ances. and when he found runners at
the depot crying out Great Western Hotel'
he got angry.
The result has been the commencement
of suit by landlord Lana against Messrs.
Wilson & Kinney to enjoin the latter from
using the word Western" in connection
with their hotel, and for 81 600 damages.
A temporary restraining order has been
issued by Judge Van Fleet, under which
that term cannot be employed by Messrs.
Wilson & Kinney until the determination
of the suit and unless they secure judg-
medt in their favor.

IMPROVED SIDEWALKS.
Sample of Asphalt Work that Speaks
for Itself.

for Itself.
The Ventura Asphalt Company has Just
completed the laying of splendid piece of
sidewalk on the west side of Fourth street.
between K and L. The asphalt is as
smooth as cement, and practically inde-
structible. If the old plank walks of the
city could be replaced by cement, or by
asphalt of such quality as that laid on
Fourth street, the effect would be magical.
This asphalt has also been laid in the
stable of j. w. Wilson, where vehicles are
washed, and thus prevents the wetting and
rotting of the woodwork The expense
for walks is but little more than that of
ordinary planking, and not as great as that
of narrow and dressed pine strips. such as
have been laid in front of some business
houses on and X streets
The general introduction of asphalt
would work a great improvement in the
city, as it can be laid at such small ex-
pense. Those whose means enable them
to lay cement walks can do so, but there is
large class who put up with rough
wooden walks because of their inability to
stand the expense of cement. This ohjec-
ton cannot, however, be urged against
asphalt, and it should be substituted for
wood.
