THE BATHS AGAIN.

1t is suggested by correspondent of the
RECORD UNION that if the swimming bath
scheme takes the form of an organization,
the stock, if issued in ten dollar shares.
will in many cases be taken by those who
will expend more than the par value of
the stock in tickets for the bath the first
year. That is altogether probable. 1t
has in other cases proved true, that half
the money needed to erect such work has
been advanced on tickets of admission.
Still that Is not necessary consideration
in the case in hand. 1t can be shown that
the establishment will pay good interest
upon the investment as that does in
Fresno and the bath in San Jose, and I'M
der such showing stock subscription
would be made rapidly. Whatever any
stakeholder would agree to expend in
tickets of admission the first year would
simply be assurance of income, but of
course that would be of value in encour-
aging the enterprise.
Our suggestion is that those who feel an
interest in the matter get together, organ
lie, make estimates and receive bids to
justify them, and then on the basis of the
showing offer the stock. If not enough is
taken to warrant the prosecution of the
work, no harm will have been done, and
no outlay made But we feel confident
that there would he ample subscription.
AS to location, the baths should be stu
ated as nearly as possible to lines of con-
yenient communication, and at the same
time SO near to the river that the cost of
drawing the water would be reduced to
the minimum. For that purpose loca-
ton on the northwest would be suitable.
The structure would be preferable if the
tanks were of masonry and on the surface
of the ground, but would cost more than
if sunken. They should be cement or
asphalt lined, the latter being preferable
and permitting the use of wooden walls.
Alphabetically the superstructure need
not be costly. Very simple and light
walls and roof only need be erected.
Heating apparatus for one of the tanks
would be essential in order to accommo-
date tastes. The steam, in part, used for
water lifting, can be utilized for heating
purposes.
Another plan would be to locate the
baths more centrally and secure the water
supply from driven wells, as was done on
K street some years'ago. In that case the
lifting machinery would be lighter and
the cost of filling the tanks much lessened,
but the site for the baths would involve
larger outlay. On the whole the expense
would be about as great in one case as in
the other. That Sacramento needs such
baths as are under discussion is conceded
on all hands. That they would be pat
ronized to the extent of an average at
tendance of eighty-three a day the year
round seems to be assured. Such patron
age would insure the income necessary to
pay the invested capital fair reward, and
regularly contribute to its replacement.

AzoTHER prize fighter has been killed
in contest. This time the tragedy is to
the account of Chicago. 1t may not be
humane. but We can scarcely restrain the
expression "the more the better" The
frequency of these finish matches, in which
one of the contestants is knocked out for
all time, will bring on the needed reform
in the laws which will put stop to these
brutal exhibitions of fisticuffs.

an invitation to a former townsman to deliver
the annual address before the State Agricult-
ural, Society on the evening of Thursday, Sep
tember 18th, in the Pavilion at Sacramento
Your connection with the progressive re-
sources of California leads me to believe that
more fitting occasion could not be had wherein
to express your knowledge of California's inter-
ests and advantages.
The state paper such as am positive YOU are
capable of presenting, viii be OF untold adyan-
tage to those seeking information regarding
California.
Hoping that your acceptance will be the an
swer, remain. with kind regards, yours truly,
CHRISTOPHER GREEN, President.
Mr.. MILLS RESPONSE.
SAN Francisco, July 18th
Hon. Christopher Green. President of the State
Board Of agriculture, Sdcrdmerao-MY DEAR
SIR: beg leave to acknowledge receipt OF your
very esteemed favor of July sth, extending to
me an invitation to de liver the annual address
before the State Agricultural Society on the
evening OF Thursday, September 18th, in the Pa
vilion at Sacramento.
l also find in your letter an indication of the
line OF considerations to which you call my
attention. You further indicate that you desire
an address for publication for the benefit of
those seeking information regarding California.
My ordinary emplOyments occupy my time so
fully that entertain misgivings as to my ability
to meet your views in the premises. will,
however, make an effort to present something
which hope will be of service to your Board:
and. therefore, in accepting your very kind in
viiation, beg leave to reserve to myself the
privilege OF delivering an extemporaneous ad-
dress. rather than written paper, simply be-
cause feel that would have time for the one
and may not possibly have time for the prepare
ton OF the other.
l accept the invitation you have extended,
chiefly because do not feel at liberty to de-
cline any service the State Board of Agriculture
may see lit to impose upon me. l take occasion
In this to renew high personal considerations

THE Oakland Tribune is distressed that
the RECORD UNION should express the
common sentiments of humanity concern
ing the Gar of Russia and the Bulgarian
question, and intimates that the courage to
speak the truth in this journal concerning
world important questions, increases in
the direct ratio of the square of the dis
tance." We can pardon the TI1bunes mild
fling, since it enables it to say something
with an air of wit, and thus break the
monotony of its political dispositions.
But for the information of our amiable
contemporary, let us inform it that in this
day and age of the world the Importance
of questions that affect humanity is not by
journals of broad views and intelligence
considered in relation to the geographical
locality of the scene of action. The well
informed reader is the one who reads
papers having the capacity to inform him
of social and political activities in many
nations. 1t is understandable, however,
that in Oakland the intellectual horizon
may be SO confined that there is no de-
mand for journalism of that order, and
hence the Tribune may be filling con-
genial field.

THE chain OF States from the Atlantic
to the Pacific was completed when Idaho
was admitted TO the Union, July Sd. Prior
to that event there was a gap by about
half the width of the southern end of
Idaho. 1t is somewhat surprising that the
interesting fact of the completion of the
band of States across the continent has not
been commented upon largely and with
some sophomore exuberance OF ex-
preston.

OF course the Superior Court of San
Francisco is correct in its holding that the
rule of Police Courts to refuse Chinese
bondsmen is illegal. No Court can refuse
bail bond simply because the .,sureties
are of particular nationality, but the
Judge of a Court must be satisfied Of the
solvency and suficiency of an offered
surety, and this will enable the Police
magistrates of San Francisco to reject
straw bail and to require of Chinese sure
ties positive proof of their possession Of
tangible property. The effect upon the
criminal element among the Chinese will
be much the same if the Courts thus in
sist, as if their late rule had been valid.

The New York World spoke Witty
when it said that the disposition to blow
up the Car of Russia with dynamite is a
passion with some Of his people, because
they have not the opportunity to blow him
up in the newspapers. But there is a vein
of truth in the statement. The complain
ings of the Russians who wish to compass
the death of the Car cannot be heard in
the Russian press. But if they had the
privilege of expressing themselves with
some freedom in print, and of voicing their
objections to the Cars policies through
the columns of the newspapers of the day.
unquestionably there would be less danger
to the Gar from the arm of the assassin.
The freedom to express an opinion GER
tainly serves as relief to great deal
discomfort.

ASt- Johns, Newfoundland, special
to The New York Herald says: The
people of this country are gradually
abandoning the fishery and turning
their attention to farming, to mining
and to manufactures. Many thou
sands OF acres have been brought UNI
der cultivation Sheep raising has re-
ceived a great impetus, and in every
village large docks of sheep abound.
One great obstacle has now been swept
away. Great numbers of dogs were
kept by the people. These were not
the celebrated Newfoundland breed.
OF which indeed pure specimens are
exceedingly rare. But they were
strong and hardy, and when coupled
were employed by the poorer classes
to draw sleds laden with timber and
hrewood in the settlements along the
coast, or In hunting expeditions in the
interior of the country.
In the summer time, in spite of
stringent laws regarding precautions,
they frequently destroyed valuable
sheep. 1t was proposed to introduce
the reindeer in their stead. In the
meantime the retention or abolition of
these dogs has been made the subject
of local option" Many localities
have abolished them completely and
have introduced sheep farming on a
large scale. The measure, however,
has produced one incidental incon-
venience of a serious nature. In some
cases, whether through the negli-
gence of the police or through the
fondness of the owners, dogs have
been suffered to escape to the forests;
the animals have become quite wild
and savage and continue to hang
around backwoods settlements. In
spite OF the efforts of the police, some
OF these animals have escaped capture
and destruction.
This may become a serious danger in
the future. The wolf is only a dog
run wild. Already dangerous encoun-
ters have occurred. Sheep have been
slain by them. Cattle wandering
over the plains or through the woods
have been attacked by them. Parties
of women engaged in berry picking
have been prevented from going far
from the settlements. Men have been
attacked by them and compelled to
take refuge in trees. Quite lately a
herdsmen in search of cattle came
across a litter of young pups and was
fiercely attacked by the mother. For
tunately, he was armed with a pitch
fork, and after a desperate contest slow
her and destroyed the cubs. The hunt
ing OF this now race of wolves may
become a national sport, or g. national
business, and our legislature may find
itself compelled again to provide for
the prices of wolves heads.

OF THE GAME.
Euclid G. Cooksey, a bright young re-
porter, was sent to do the execution for
his paper. He and Mr.. M~orningstar,
another reporter, sat up with the con-
demned man. Friends decided that re-
ligious services should be held over the
murderer. Mr.. Morningstar was selected
to lead in prayer. He had never done SO
before, but he was a good reporter, and
when he was assigned for anything al
ways covered the field. He still says
that. considering his lack OF preparation,
be thinks he did pretty well.
