cient, and better, and that its final syllable
by no chronological or pathological ingenu-
ity can be tackled upon the word electro"
We can properly speak of electro-chemis-
try, because it conveys the idea of cleo
trical agency related to chemical behavior,
and so with electro-magnet, electro-biol-
ogy, electro-dynamic, electro-plating, cleo
tro-engraving, electro-gilding, etc. In all
such cases the final is distinct word,
meaning distinct thing. art or science
But the latter half of the word execution
has no individuality whatever. If it has,
what does ''ecution" mean? If it is mean
ingless, as certainly must be confessed it is
then when our contemporaries use the
sword" electrocution they really express
nothing, describe nothing, hence the
"word" is useless
To execute is to perform a duty or Office.
Execution is, in the Latin, "exsceutio,"
and is the act of execution, of performing
the office. Hence it is the carrying out of
the penalty OF the law when applied to the
taking of life by mandate of Court. In no
way whatever, gentlemen of the press, can
you affix meaning to ''ecution;" for no
possible reason, therefore, can you deprive
the word execution of its prefix and SUBJ
stitute electro" except you are perverse
and insist upon it for "pure cussedness."

THE DAY.

The American people to-day celebrate
another anniversary of the birth of the
nation. That they will do SO from the
heart we believe, for that the national
heart is true at the core we have implicit
faith. The entertainment of doubts and
fears Of the perpetuity of the American
republic may engage some minds; there
may be, indeed there have been among
our people manifestations of apparent an
tagonism to the basic principles of free
government, but should the fears of the
doubling and the schemes of internal enc
mics develop actual danger to American
institutions, it will be found that the deep.
irresistible undercurrent of patriotism. of
devotion to the doctrine OF the capacity of
men for self-government, of love for re-
publican systems, of unalterable loyalty to
the principles upon which the indissoluble
Union of sovereign States rests, will rise
in a swelling torrent before which will be
swept away alike doubts and fears, and
any manner of plots and schemes to sap
the foundations of the nation
The duty of the American citizen is
also his supreme privilege on this dag /;
to manifest by joyful acclaim, by song and
by Grafton, by laundering cannon, by
martial parade, and the elevation of the
colors of free men, the pride and love and
devotion he has for his country. That
such demonstrations may operate as les
sons to youth, it becomes the duty and the
privilege also of American men and women
of mature years to point out to the rising
generation the reasons for all such display
and activity. Behind professional show,
the beat of drums, the Haunting of flags,
and all the gala day observances of COM
memoration and of amusement, we should
teach the young American there lie the
great principles of self-government and
individual sovereignty that make us free
people, and each citizen a responsible
being for the form of government that is
set up for us; principles cemented by the
blood of patriots which deny as untrue,
unjust, and contrary to the plan of human
progress, the claim of the divine right to
rule, the laws of entail and attainder of
blood, the privileges of titled aristocracy,
the claims of one class to rule, and the
demand that another shall submit itself To
be ruled.
We need to teach our children that all
the hustle and show and parade and cere-
naonial of this day is not for mere amuse-
ment, that it is not merely manifestation
OF passing vanity, not simply the ebulli-
ence of enthusiasm. We need to teach
them that these things testify to the devo-
ton of the citizen sovereigns of our free
land to the creed of right, to the doctrine
of the equality OF men before the law, to
the right and the capacity of free men for
self-government, to the right to speak and
write freely and to liberty of conscience;
that these ceremonials and activities bear
testimony 10 love for the principles that
command obedience to the law by the law
makers who are the people, and for the
essential sentiment of patriotism that
makes it the duty and the pride of the
citizen to sacrifice his substance, and if
need be to lay down his life in defense OF
free institutions

AT fire in San Francisco Wednesday
night the loss was but 5000. The new
chemical engine saved the situation. II
is agreed on all sides that had water en-
CINE been used several thousand dollars
loss would have resulted. Sacramento
needs chemical engine badly. To in.
surance companies our city is, they admit,
one of the best, if not the best, of paying
fields, for many reasons that do not obtain
elsewhere. How would it do, then, for
the Underwriters to present the city Of
Sacramento with chemical engine and
thus still further reduce risk and deserve
commendation.

WE do not believe that tariff on art
works protects anybody. The home artists
appear to think so also, since all the lead
| ing ones object to the thirty per cent.
duty the Senate amendment restored to
the House bill. 1t cannot be shown that
the imposition of the duty in any respect
elevates art tastes or helps home paintersor
sculptors. 1t does not tend to foster or
develop native talent. On the contrary,
the more art works imported and sold, the
broader the cultivation of the taste for art,
and consequently the greater the encour-
agement to home ability, and the capacity
to appreciate it. If, as the Salt Lake
Tribune suggests, duty collected ON art
importations were used to foster art schools
and encourage the establishment of art
collections for public view, there would be
compensation for it. Bnt the duty would
not produce sufficient to go very far in
that direction We fear, and that Congress
would ever so dispose of the revenue is
Improbable, even If 1t had the constitu-
tional right to do SO, which is questioned
by some, though we hold it has the right
clearly to foster art tastes by aiding art
schools as it has to encourage inventive
genius, geographical discovery and the
cause of free education. But the Tribune,
we think, errs in its thought that the duty
protects American artists. They are, in
fact, aided by the free entry of foreign
works of art. If these entries are of low
quality, they need not fear them. if of high
merit, the home taste is cultivated that
will expend itself in part upon home
talent that otherwise would have very
limited market field.

OUTRAGE ON TROUT.
Something the Fish Commissioners Should
Inquire Into.

Something the Fish Commissioners Should
Inquire Into.
A Sacramento gentleman, whose state.
ments can be relied upon, writes as follows
to the RECORD UNION from Bonner Lake.
The matter to which he refers should re.
ceive the immediate attention of the State
Fish Commissioners. He saws:
Please call the attention of the Fish
Commissioners to the fact that Reno
water company has placed dam in Dom
ner Creek, at the foot of Bonner Lake
which entirely prevents trout from going
up or down the stream. A fish: ladder has
been constructed which is a disgrace to
any country. The gate is constantly
closed. The amount of water going down
the ladder suffices to let the fish get up to
RIFLES, or pools, or whatever they are
called, and there they remain by the
thousands, and boys and men go in and
scoop them out with their hats and hands
as saw them do to-day.
Wherever there is little water escapine
there are found millions of trout, of ali
sizes, jumping up and trying to get over
into the lake, only to fall back again.
Bonner Creek, which afforded excellent
fishing two weeks ago, seems to be void of
fish OF any size, the larger having all gone
down stream or up to the dam.
| made vigorous kick over this state of
things, and the man in charge raised the
gate, when the water came out with such
force under the gate (having several feet of
head that no trout could possibly get up
into the lake. l watched for fully an hour
to-day, and in not one instance did | see
trout. large or small, meet with success in
the ascent.
After getting through the rifles they
