DURING the Democratic administration
from 1885 to 1889, the expenses of the
territorial prison amounted to $52 900 per
annum. During the first year under a
Republican regime. from March 4, 1889,
to March 4, 1890, the expenses, with the
same number of prisoners. were 500 900.
1t is plain to any person who can read
and understand that the management
under the Democratic administration was
dishonest, and the management under a
Republican administration is honest.
That is ali.

SHEEP raising in New Mexico has dur
ing the past year shown an activity that
ought to commend it to men in search of
a paying business in a new country.
There are thousands upon thousands of
broad acres down here awaiting the COM
ing OF the practical man to make them
productive. AS near as can be got at
there have been shipped out of New Mex
leo during the past year not less than
three-quarters of million sheep at prices
ranging from $3.50 to 50. The years pro-
ductlon OF wool will certainly not fall
short Of l0,00O,0OO pounds. New Mexico
is making progress in the sheep raising
industry, to be sure, but there's abundant
room for others to engage in the bust
ness.

DoVH BRAKES.
THE SENATORS STOP SLIDING AND GO
TO CLIMBING AGAIN.
They Do Up the stocktons to the Tune
of Ten to Two-Their Eyes Still
on the Pennant.

The poor, unfortunate Stocktons were given
ramentos, the score standing ten to two in the
latters favor. If, by some technically or
agreement, the fourth inning could have been
left out, the contest would have partaken of the
nature of fight to finish but when eight
Sacramento men crossed the plate in the fourth
inning after two men were put out, the Stock
tons boys sighed, ''Its the same thing over
again" They did good work, however, during
the remainder of the game, and allowed no
more runs to be scored by their opponents. A
streak of heavy batting on the part of the Sera-
tors and few rank misplays by tthe visitors
had the effect of swelling the home mines score
from two to ten runs. The Stocktons made
their only two runs in the eighth and ninth
innings
There was fair-sized audience present. but
the greater number of spectators were ladies,
and the gate receipts were not large. few en-
joyed the distinction of sitting in the special
stand, but the number was very limited. The
home club played such a steady game that
when the audience saw that stockton was out
of the contest altogether, they wanted to see the
club whitewashed. An error of McHales. how
ever, in the eighth inning let in the first run,
ana tDeu u maItereu not whether one CT Two
more tallies were scored as the shut-out could
not be accomplished.
Both pitchers did box-work that would have
done credit to any twirler. Kilroy had all his
curves with him, and succeeded in causing ten
of the batters who faced him to fan the atmos-
phere violently. little better contIol would
have added effectiveness to his work.
Harper had almost perfect command of the
ball, and sent his curves and straight ones over
the plate with comparative ease. Only four hits
were made from his delivery, and three of them
were what are called scratches
McHale and Vogt did very good backstop
work, but neither had much throwing to do.
None of the Sacramentos made an error, ex-
cepting McHale, and their team work was con-
sequently of the strongest kind. Godars catch
of liner, Daly's remarkable stop of grounder,
Roberts heavy batting, Hotfman's quick field
ing and Goodenough's timely home run in the
fourth inning, all came in for liberal amount
of applause, which was certainly deserved
Reitz did not have even one chance, and gave
evidence that his batting eye is not as clear as
formerly. He struck out twice yesterday and
three times on Sunday.
On the part of the Stockions, Selma and Arm
strong played the best ball. Wilson had an of
day, and made two disastrous errors with the
chances that were offered him. Fudger threw
bad ball to first base, and Pache and Holiday
both muffed flies.
The Stocktons appeared in their new uni
forms, which are dark navy blue with white
trimmings, aud a black cap and stockings.
Following is the score:

STATE spoRrMEK's ASSOCIATION.

1t VIII Hold Its Annual Meeting and
Tournament Here.
Active preparations are now being made for
the coming annual meeting and tournament OF
the State Specimens Association by the Pacific
Sportsmen's Club of this city, which has the
matter in hand. The trap-shocting tournament
will take place at Agricultural Park on October
Sth, 9th, 10th and 11th. On each day there will
be matches at live birds and inaaimate targets,
for which large list of valuable p-izes and
trophies have been secured by the committee.
rhe shoot is attracting much attention, and
from letters received il is believed there will be
shooters here from Siskiyou to San Diego. The
great team shoot at live oirds, for the $500
trophy offered by the Selby Company, and now
held by the Pscifcs, has been set for the open
ing event. From the present outlook it will be
the greatest live pigeon contest ever held in this
State.
badge has been arranged for the third day, and
it is thought there will be upward of fifty con-
testants. The new and rapid system of shoot
ing has been adopted, five men going to the trap
at once. thus giving animation and zest TO the
affair. The blue-rock matches viii afford oppor-
tunites tor those inclined to this style OF SPORT
and large number of special prizes have been
secured for these eve IS.
The PacificS have introduced novelty in the
way of ten-bird pigeon match, known as
field shoot" The shooter stands on line
S5 yards from the five traps. with gun cooked.
He calls ready" and walks toward the traps.
There is another line 80 yards from the traps,
or yards in front of this. Immediately upon
the shooter crossing the 30yard line, the trap is
sprung and he must then stop and shoot. But
the trapper may not pull the trap until the
shooter has taken a step or two beyond the
Seward line, if he so desires.
The object is to cause the bird to fly while the
shooter is walking between the two lines. The
shooter must stop the instant the bird rises, and
should bird nail 10 rise he must stand where
he was when the trap was sprung. The
is thought necessary. No distinction is made
between the bores of guns, and the American
rules will govern.
The committee Of arrangements consists of
Adam Damn, Fred. S. George, Chas E. Mack,
Captain F. Ruhstaller and +. NJ. WoodsOn.

THE LAND OF FRUIT.
Fasteners Having Their Eyes Opened
to California's Productiveness

Fasteners Having Their Eyes Opened
to California's Productiveness.
The Eastern papers are advertising California
in great shape, this year. as fruit producing
State. And well they may, as nearly all the
fruit the people of the East have eaten this sum-
mer came from California.
The Boston Transcript says: There have been
no peach trains, or even cars, from the South
this season-a fact that is remarkable. The crop
in the South was spoiled by what are known as
peaches in the market, but they all come from
California. The fruit Is good, and prices are
high
The long trains, loaded with the products of
California orchards, which roll through Mis-
souri, daily, causes the st. Louis Gtobe-DeBlocrdt
to remark that thousands and thousands OF
Eastern collars are rolling into California this
season, in exchange for the fruits of that State.
The superb qualities of California peaches,
pears and apricots have been abundantly shown
TO millions of Eastern people this year, and it
meaus continued and increasing demand for
these products through years to come"
If the st. Louis paper had said millions and
millions of Eastern dollars" it would have
come nearer the mark. And when one stops to
reflect that the great bulk of this fruit that is
tickling the palates OF our neighbors across the
continent comes from the Sacramento and
other smaller valleys and the foothills of the
central portion of the State, he cannot but won.
der why it is that hundreds of thousands of
acres of fine fruit land lies uncultivated.
Sacramento lies in the center of the fertile
section that produces most of the iruit now
raised in the State, and is the chief shipping
point. The county is itself one of the most pro-
ductiye OF those devoted to fruitculture, and
ships enormous quantities every season, as well
as vegetables. ALI of which means that the
people here have prosperous future in store
for them. But there is pl, nty OF room for more

Rivett Wins the Bicycle Race ON the
Riverside,

Riyett Wins the Bicycle Race on the
Riverside.
The Riverside road was literally alive with
vehicles pedestrians and bicycle riders yester-
day morning at the hour announced for the
start in the bicycle race.
The five racers were on hand promptly on
time and took up their positions at the toll
gate The course was from the gate 10 Oak
Hall, q distance of about three and quarter
miles. AL. Riyett Henry Toll and L. S. Epson
were the scratch men, and Brown and Leadbet-
ter the handicap men.
Before the start was made the knowing ones
picked on Rivett as the winner and subsequent
events proved that they guessed rightly. Rivett
looked a winner. too, as he was in splendid
condition and ''fit to race for his lfe,' to use
popular sporting term.
Brown was the first man sent of. minute
and half later the next handicap man. Lead
better, made his start and went speeding on his
way in Browns wake. Half minute elapsed
then before the scratch men. Rivett, Toll and
Upson, were sent off and the race was under
way. These three set furious pace that soon
began to close up the gap between them and
the handicap men. They kept well together
for about mile and then Toll dropped back.
The handicap men were passed and on the last
mile the race was between Rivett and UpSOn,
and beautiful race it was, too. They kept
neck-and-neck to within fifty yards of the fin
ishing line, and were fairly flying. The pace
was telling on Upso J, and hlyett, taking adyan-
tsge of this made a grand squirt in the last
fifty yards. which won him the race
Upson made Il gallant strugg e. and won the
hearty congratulations of his friends and the
spectators Rivett's excellent condition and
staying qualities helped him to victory more
than anything else, and when the race was
over he was comparatively fresh. The watches
showed that he had covered the distance in 10
minutes and so seconds. Rivett holds the State
championship medal for one mile for 1890.
Toll would have done much better had the
distance been shorter. He is one of the fastest
men in the State, but three and quarter miles
is too far for him. Last year at Stockton he set
the pace in the race in which Elwell broke the
Pacific coast record for mile

CHIEF ENGINEER o'MEARA.
He Abandons His Home and Post of
Duty Without Notice,

For just week to-day the Fire Department
has been under the charge of First Assistant
Chief Engineer Henry Guthrie. Chief Engineer
0'Meara has been absent from his post of
duty during that time, and neither the Fire
Commissioners, his brother officers. nor his wife
know where he is. There is no suspicion that
he has been the victim of foul play. violence, or
anything of that sort, nor that he has wandered
off during any temporary ALTERATION of mind,
as generally understood.
He left, however, without asking the Fire Com.
missioneIs for leave OF absence-contrary to the
rules of the department-and the indications
are that he does not intend TO return. The fact
of his absence was kept as quiet as possible by
the officers of the department but his protracted
stay has rendered 1t impossible to shield him
any longer. A certain woman whose name was
for long time associated with that of Chief
O'Mearas predeces. or, Con. Sullivan, disap-
peared at the same time, and the story is that
they have gone together.
Mrs. O'Meara is greatly distressed over her
husbands conduct, and yesterday she was en-
gagged in having her furniture and household
goods removed from the home that he has aban-
doned.
Chief O'Meara has voluntarily turned his back
upon an honorable and well paid position, which
he had filed with marked ability. His many
friends will regret to learn that he has allowed
himself TO SO far forget his duty to the public
and his estimable wife as to take the unfortu-
nate step attributed TO him. 1t is 10 be hoped
that there is another and better side TO the mys-
| terry surrounding his departure.

CHARLES H. DEWEY.
A Former Sacramento Business Man Dies
in Michigan.

in Michigan.
The death is announced at Battle Greek,
Mich, on the 9th of August, of Charles H.
Dewey, a former Sacramentan, but who for sew
eral years past had been resident OF Omaha
Mr.. Dewey was born in Kennebec county,
Maine, and lived during his boyhood days in
Ohio. He was one of the first men to rush to
California in 1S49 in search of fortune in the
gold fields which had just been discovered. He
spent seven years in California and on the Pa
citic coast, and met with the usual ups and
downs of an adventurer's life.
In 1856 Mr.. Dewey came to Sacramento, where
settlers, and they formed a co-partnership in
the carriage business. They remained together
for upwards of two years and half, when Mr..
Dewey returned East, locating in Indiana
where he engaged in the furniture business
Later he removed to Omaha and established
the firm OF Dewey & Stone, now the Dewey &
Stone Furniture Company.
Mr.. Dewey had natural taste for travel, a
taste that he gratified, after his success in bus
ness warranted it, to an extent that gave him
the title of ''the great Omaha traveller" He
went TO Europe for his health in 1870, and made
a tour of the continent and since that time has
visited almost every place of note in the known
world. He was in Paris during a part of the
Franco-Prussian war, and watched with deep
interest the stirring events of that period. He
was in Paris again IN 1878, as one of the United
States Commissioners, appointed by President
Arthur, to the Worlds Exposition. He took
trip around the world in 1881, sailing from San
Francisco, and from tina. me to his death trav-
eled almost continuously. He was planning an
other trip around the world when he was taken
with his last illness.
