READY FOR RECIPROCITY,

A correspondent writing from Rio de Janeiro
tells the American people that The Brazilians
are sensible Of apparent osertnres made by this
country and that the great interests Of Brazil
ian trade, long monopolized by European mon.
archies,are ready 10 be poured into The Ameri-
can lap il our business men will only make a
study of Brazilian wants and how 10 supply
them and il our government will take down.ihe
customs bars on that side. In other words
Brazil is ready for reciprocal trade. But the
party in power viii not be moved by any such
facts, for it fought the presidential campaign
on the motto that the home market is good
enough for Americans. The administration
cannot adopt policy Of reciprocity without
confessing that its protective" policy is :
flauntina lie. which It Is.

RHEUMATIC.

Editors Democrat:
Is it not mistake for the democratic party
TO use the words Stree trade" when urging
that doctrine where there can be no detriment
in doing so to our manufacturing or CONNER
cial tinleresi. Should not these plain out
spoken democrats show little weak and eva
siye culture and shout with loud voice. ''We
arc party Of reciprocity" We might apollo
gise to Mr. Blaine for using the grand old saxon
words ''free trade and sailors rights" which
gave US our second victory on land and sea,
and adopt his Interpretation Of the democratic
doctrine, II reminds US of the Irdian play in
the circus where he was promised bottle ol
whisky for grand display Of indian skin, and
whea ii was presented to him he Indignantly
refused it. On being told It was quart ol
whisky, he said il was not enough. he wanted
two pin's. Mr. Blaine will not take the quart
Of whisky,h he wants two pins, which are more
RECIPROCAL and make greater number o
bottles among the .'most favored natives"

A ilEARTLESS TASK,

The O,egonian worries, in half hearted
way, through quarter column article 10 explain
the gren; republican loss in the republican vote
Of Vermont, II says that "lhe republican ma.
jority for governor in 1870 YVES II, 500; IN 1874
20, ,32s; in 1873, 2o,o6s; in 1882, aI,37a; in
1886, 20, s22." II omitted to Tell what the
majority was two years ago when the Screen
Mountain sheep" voted so hlindly. For its
information we viii say that Dillingham's ma
jori.y two years ago was 2S,o95. So that the
republican majority, after the sheep got
their eyes opened by the process Of the cam
paign Of education, has been reduced from
80 ooc in round numbers to 10000 in round
numbers. The Oreeonian attributes this fal
ling on 10 fac.ional disturbances in that state
over the choice Of candidates. We have no
desire TO deprive il Of this crumb Of comfort,
but must be permitted 10 say, aside, that i
will haYe never ending job explaining The
elections that will take place in November.

An A:baay Party up the Thrse sisters.
j ID Guiss. l. u Cusick, A Cumming
and Harry Cusiek returned last Friday
from a sixteen days trip through
the Cascades, full Of more than common
interest, rs their route will at once sug.
gest. From Albany the party went To
the Mckenzie, stopping awhile Mt Bel.
knap, noted for liz hot springs thence
crossing over To Clear lake, by way Of the
Mckenzie, having pleasant experience
at the falls OF that river, romantic with
It's ragged surroundings and grand rain
bows. At Clear lake couple hunters
came IN with ten deer. The Albany
party was not out for slaughter and only
killed enough game. as they travelled, for
their own wants, and hence have no big
fish stories TO tell.
FROM Clear lake they went towards
the famous Three Sisters, the pride of
Albany, their three white cape being
seen Ia grand prominence on any clear
day from our streets. Arriving at the
foot OF the mountains on the 9th ot
August the next morning they started
out at 80 o'clock on mules. reaching
the snow line at o 30, where they left
the mules and continued on foot. The
trip up IL just safe enough 10 be interest
ing, and yet full enough Of risk 10 have
an adyentureroua nature. Though the
party tGoa ropes the ascent was easily
made without their use, and in safety,
though there are many yawning creyices
that stand ready TO frighten the timid.
The ascent from the snow line was made
IN little over four hours, distance OF
four miles, which took the party to Copis
peak, the one generally assembled.
There Is no snow at the summit, the
ground being clear and shelly. Here
the view is magnificent one the Will
lamctte valley lying before them in all
its beauty on the west, and, in all direc-
tions tne panorama is broad one.
The bottle ot names was increased by
theirs. IL already contained those Of
a iiasbrouck, Boyd Taylor and Capt G w
Davis, OF the Vancouver barracks, who
assembled in 1873. T G Judkins, S II Al

much benefited by their experience.

RHEUMATISM.

Editors Democrat:
May ask without speaking disparagingiy
OF the medical profession why ]; is that with
all the skill of the physician he has never yet
cured rheuma;ism1 This is true the world
over. We viii include all the preparatory nos
tums in the assertion. We do not refer to
temporary or partial relief Of rheumatism, but
20 absolute cures, The idea OF hot baths and
especially mud baths cane from Indians. We
have that much from the natives which we
have followed with some degree OF relief.
Wherein is the growth in materia medica as
applied in remedial sense in case. Of rheu-
matism. Indians may claim that they have
suggested remedies in other lines. In surgery
however the Indian is distanced. 1t would be
too much perhaps for Esculapius to answer
this inquiry.

THE DIVE GOT IT ALL.
An ex-snow-shoveler, and His First Night
in Town.

An Observation-Disclosures, and His First Night
in Town.
A sorry-looking specimen of the genus
tramp knocked at the door of certain doc
tor the other morning ard asked for work
to get meal. The doctor came cut and
said
Cant you find any work ?"
ooh. yes" replied his caller ~ just got
back from snow-shoveling, and it was
awfully cold work
well, didn't you get paid for it?
"Oh, yes; the company used me first
rate-paid me $40 and didn't charge me a
cent to bring me down. I got here last
night was tired and cold, and went into
dive and got drink to warm me up, and
l staid-I staid all night, and my money
all went. and never got meal out of it. .
What folly y exclaimed the doctor.
Don't l know it. Now. here am,
awfully hungry. Have you wood-pil
where l can saw enough wood to earn my
breakfast
Eyes, but you take this quarter and first
get meal; and if you want to come back
and saw wood you can do it,
"Oh. I'll come back after l get some
thing to eat," replied the tramp.
The doctor thought he had seen the last
of the poor fellow, but the latter came back,
as he promised, and put in good two
hours at wood saving.
Such has been the experience of scores of
men who put in weeks OF hard labor, by
day and night, shoveliDg snow on the
mountains

A Pleasing Entertainment.

The entertainment given last night by
the students of the Sacramento Business
College was of unusual excellence, and was
largely attended, probably hundred peo-
pie being compelled to stand The recita-
tons and musical numbers were so uni
formly good that discrimination is imprac-
ticable. They were all bright and carefully
prepared.
The feature of the evening was the farce
with which the entertainment closed. The
hits kept the audience in constant rustic
of excitement, which frequently burst into
applause.

HOUSE OF REPREsENrArIvEs, U. s.,


DR.. G. H. DirOn, Chairman Of the Executive
Committee of the California Rirer improvement Con-
tentio1l-DEAR SIR: Your letter received, also
copies of the resolution adopted by the Conyen-
ton. In connection with Senator Hearst, l
drafted a bill providing for the appointment OF
a commission. and making an appropriation, in
accordance with the resolutions of the Conyen-
ton. Congressman McKenna, who is also
deeply interested in this subject, suggested that
no bill be introduced at present, as there was a
committee with maps, ETC., on the way here.
1t is needless for me TO add that / am heartily
in accord with the Convention on this subject
our State has been sadly neglected in the past.
We pay annually in the way OF taxes about
s16,000,O00 to the General Government Our
State has furnished twelve hundred millios dol
lars worth of gold to the country. Cur navi-
gable rivers are under the jurisdiction of the
United States they are great highways OF COM
merce that should be preserved to the people.
There is q disposition on the part of our dele
CATION to endeavOr to have Congress recognize
our rights in the way of appropriations.
Acting upon Mr.. McKenna's request, shall
withhold introducing bill until after the COM
mittee and the delegation have consultation.
The damage caused by the recent hoods in
California, and the Importance of not only pre-
serving the navigation of our rivers, and also
the preventing of the shoaling ST the bay of San
Francisco, justly entitle you to the appropri-
alton you demand. Governor Waterman is tax
ing deep interest in this matter, having adj
dressed personal letters TO members OF Congress
on the subject.
l am doing all can ID my feeble way 70 get
my friends committed to the measure, and hope
by "a long pull. strong pull, and pull slto-
gether," to get for our people the relief 50 long
denied them. For my own part, think it is a
burning shame that the destruction of our
navigable streams. the flooding of thousands of
acres of land and of large aad populous cities,
and the shoaling of the bay of san Francisco,
has been allowed to go on year after year with
out any attempt on the part Of the Government
to remedy ii. Whatever can do before Con-
gress to emphasize these matters viii be CHEEK
fully done. Yours truly, THos. J. CLuS1E.

FATAL ACCIDENT.
Henry Maxon of this City Meets ashock-

Henry Maxon of this City Meets a Shock
ing Death on the Mountains.
An unfortunate and fatal accident befell
one of the -shoyelers on the Central
Pacific road last night. His name was
Henry Maxon, and he resided with his
brother at 100 Seventh street, in this city.
He was at Gold Run, and when work
train, bound eastward, was passing that
point, he attempted to board it while twas
under way. He missed his footing, but
chung to the car railing, and was dragged
about three-fourths of mile, unknown to
any person on the train.
Becoming exhausted he finally lost his
hold and fell beneath one Of the cars, re-
ceiving terrible wounds about the head and
arms, and having his skull fractured.
The unfortunate man was taken to Blue
Canyon, and shortly afterward placed upon
a train bound for this city. There was
physician on board, and all possible aid
was extended the sufferer, but he died be-
fore reaching Auburn. There his body was
turned over to the Coroner of Placer
county, who will hold an inquest to-day.
