THE Ell DORADO ACCIDENT.
Particulars of Wednesdays Railway A
r;danf yVahar

Particulars of Wednesdays Railway Ac-
cident at Weber Creek.
The following additional particulars Of
the accident to a work trsin at Weber
creek, on the Placerville Railroad, are eb-
tanned from the Ell Dorado Republican,:
About 12:45 o'clock P. NJ. the engine and
tender were returning to work, when the
engineer, George Hanford, lost control OF
the engine on a heavy down grade. He
reversed his engine and made use of the
air-brakes, but to no avail, when w. s.
Servoss cried to the men to jump. On the
guard were Tom O'Keefe and three strang-
els, Patrick Noone, Peter Finsterwalter,
August Gerding and also ]. L. Tennis.
Finsterwalter and Gerding were killed
outright, the former being caught between
The trucks of the caboose, which the en-
CINE struck, and having bis head split
open, while Gerding had his head and
body mashed and his left foot cut off.
When the order was given to jump Tom
O'Keefe and ]. L. Tennis did so, and also
Noone, but he jumped too late. His
spine, right hip and three fingers of his
right hand were broken, and he died
shortly afterwards at the County Hospital,
where he was taken after the accident.
Noone was lately from the East. having
been but week in this State. He leaves
a wife and family in Scranton, Pa.
When the engine struck no one but
George Hanford and Pierce Coombes were
aboard the latter in the tender. They
were uninjured. Besides these were Will
Dolly, brakeman; Billy Smith, fireman;
George Vignaut and Fred Tagtmeier, Jr.,
but all escaped without injury. BY the
force of the collision the caboose was
lifted off the trucks and thrown twenty
five or thirty feet down the hill, being
pretty we'll mashed, but alighting right
side up. The engine is minus the head
light, bell and smokestack.

In Early DAYS.

A miner used to tell story which illus
trates the sort of government some of the
camps adopted. 1t was on the San Juan
Ridge, whether at Columbia or San Juan
do not remember. The Alcade, or chief
officer, was mild-mannered, gentle
spoken New Highlander. A young fellow
who had stolen buckskin bag of dust
was brought before him. The witnesses
gave such clear testimony that in about
ten minutes the Alcade said:
would you like jury trial, my son p
'No, Judge, | reckon you'll be fair"
"All right, my son. Now, first give
back the dust you stole"
Certainly, Judge; the Sheriff has it."
"And the Court regrets it, but you
ought to pay costs; one ounce for Sheriff
fees and one ounce for me-"
"Here it is, and thank We Judge" pull
ing out heavily filed bag, and handing
over the required amount.
The Alcade looked him all over and
his voice grew even milder as he said !:
''That is all, except one trifing formality.
Boys, take him out, give him thirty-nine
lashes, well laid on, put him on his mule
and tell him to travel" -Ncar England

WITHOUT now discussing the abstract
wisdom of the policy of the Government
in the matter of establishing postal tele-
graph system, it may be said that the
proposition of the Postmaster-General to
make delivery of messages through the
Postoffice carrier system is one that does
not address itself forcibly to the mind.
The value of telegraph means of COM
mun;cation lies mainly in the immediate
delivery of the message. This, therefore,
is a feature that may well be discussed as
one of the preliminary details of the
scheme having direct bearing upon the
question of the policy of the Government
in establishing post routes to be operated
by electrical methods. 1t may be said in
defense of the letter carrier as a telegraph
messenger, that his office will still enable
the delivery of communication to be
made as much earlier as the difference be-
tween mail and wire transmission, and
that for speedier delivery the citizen will
have the same means now afforded by
private companies Another inquiry
precedent to a discussion of the policy,
and that needs to be understood. is whether
the Postmaster-General proposes TO con-
duct the postal telegraph upon the basis of
uniform system of charges regardless of
distance and amount of business done, as
letter delivery is now conducted. On
this latter point we have not
yet information as to the propositions in
Mr.. Wauamaker's bill submitted to the
House Committee. So, too, it is essential
to know whether it is proposed to lease
lines continually, or only as an expert
ment, and whether it is proposed that the
Government shall go into the business of
telegraphy in competition with citizens.
While it is admitted that the drift of the
public sentiment is favorable to such I'M
dertaking by the Government it is also
true that there is a strong feeling that 1t
is unwise for the Government in repub-
lie to engage In such business, as it indi-
Gates paternal tendency that many earn
est friends of the republic view with APP
prehension. The public will await the
appearance of the bill with interest, and
in the meantime the thought of the people
Will be directed to the abstract question OF
the wisdom of establishing Geographic
system under Government control at all.
So far as debate has progressed upon that
point, it has resulted in strong affirmation

How the Democrats Elect congressman
in Florida.
WASHINGTON, February 13th.-The At
torney- Generals response to the Senate
resolution asking for information concern
ing the operations of the Circuit Court for
the Northern District of Florida, laid be-
fore the Senate to-day, consists mainly of
letters from officials of the Court setting
forth that it is impossible to enforce any
process of the United States in connection
with election cases, as the deputies are
abused, the prisoners rescued, and the wit
nesses terroriZed.
United States Attorney Stripping in let
ter informs the Attorney General that Q.
Saddler the Supervisor of Registration of
Alachua county, pleaded guilty to two in
dictments of refusal 10 register persons en-
titled TO registration. His violations of the
law were fragrant, but in view of his con-
fession of guilt and promises of no repetl-
ton, ETC., some prominent Republicans,
Stripping says, importuned him not to press
the Judgment against Sadder until Decem-
Der, 1890, he in the meantime to be released
on $1,000 bail. The purpose of this, the
District Attorney says, is ultimately to have
the judgment finally suspended. He rec
ommends the arrangement to be carried
out.
Philip Walter, Chief Supervisor of Regis
tration, reports the facts of the Sadder
case and adds: Il assure you put it mild

lican votes were thrown out after they
were cast, and in little upward of 700 pre-
cincts in this State at least 10 per cent. in

ton list, and thereby deprived of their
right to vote"
In answer to Attorney Stripling's recon-
mendation in regard to SaddIer, Attorney
General Miller, on the 31st of November,
1885, wrote: ut does not comport with

THE TARIFF BILL.
Tinkering With Tariff is Found to be
Big Job.

WASHINGTON, February 13th.-The Star
says: The majority of the Ways and Means
Committee hope to get their tariff bill into
the House by the first of March, but it is
probable that they will not have it ready
so soon. They are finding some difficulty
in fixing upon any place where a cut of
duty can be made. From present indi.
cations it seems not likely that there will
be any reductions of customs duty except
on sugar, and that on the contrary, in many
cases, there may be increases Where ir-
Irregularities and inconsistencies exist, it is
likely that correction will be made by in
creasing the duties on articles at present
Disseminated against
The only material reduction of revenue
that there seems to be any agreement is
on tobacco, and whisky used in the arts.
The sugar question is giving them con-
siderable trouble. To make up the differ
ence to the producers by bounty does not
meet with approval of the sugar men, and
it is possible that the clause will be stricken
out of the bill in the House or that it may
finally defeat the whole measure.
There are understood to be ten Republi-
cans IN the House who will vote against
any considerable reduction of the sugar
tax, and six of them declare that they
will vote against the entire bill if that
clause is retained when the question comes
to be finally voted on in the House. This
opposition in their own party perplexes
the majority of the committee in making
up the bill.

THE sAMoANs SATISFIED.

Commander Hunker, Of the sloop-of-war
Adams, has transmitted to the Secretary
of the Navy a report of the political
affairs in Samoa, that is very gratifying.
From the documents accompanying the
Commanders report we learn that the sit
uation in the island kingdom is one of
peace that is not likely to be disturbed.
Malietoa has been seated as King without
breath Of opposition, and the principal
chiefs of the rebel Tamasese have come in
and acknowledged the rule of the old
King, assured him of their intention to re-
main true to the new order of things, and
of their satisfaction with the action of the
Powers. The address of these chiefs is
transmitted. 1t is very explicit and very
poetic, and is rich with assurances that the
people are not only content but overjoyed
at the turn affairs have taken. The chiefs
dwelt at length upon the great good
anticipated for the islands because of the
unity of the interests now accomplished.
Malietoa responded to his visitors, say
ing:
Your speech is good. give thanks because
all of YOU have come here This day our eroup
of islands truly have peace and friendship.
Samoa will live in peace and love to one an
other. There will be no more wars or like dis
tress. All will live together IN peace, because
each and every district and people will be con-
tinually receiving good instructions. And now
/ give thanks for this day, and now will in
form you there shall be no great meeting made.
in how had
ings for peace and unity but none OF them ever
resulted in good Tor Samoa, but the best plan of
all and one which will bring blessing to Samoa
is, let every man return TO his own home and to
its rulers and make friends with them, and wait
until call him to take some Office in the Gov
eminent.
The chiefs thus addressed represented
meeting of those who had been in arms
against the government. The spokesman
of the delegation therefore responded to
the King:
IT'S GOOD. We will return to those gathered
together at Luflufi and tell them the words
your Majesty has spoken.
The report of Commander Hunker fur
Their says that the German agents are now
SO well satisfied that permanent peace has
been established, that orders in pursuance
of their request have issued for the with
drawal from the islands of the German
ships of war, as their presence is no longer
necessary. All this is very gratifying, and
tends to confirm the wisdom of our Berlin
Commissioners in settling upon the terms
of the Samoan treaty SO recently ratified
by the United States Senate. From this
time forward the Samoan question ceases
to have interest.

CLEAN YOUR ORCHARDS.
Infected Trees Are on a Par With
a Glsndered horse.

Scale-Infected Trees Are on Far with
Glsndered horse.
[Placervile Republican, February l5th.1
There has been much opposition to the
efforts of the Horticultural Com missioners
of this county by those who having noticed
that a scale exists on the native bushes and
shrubs, believe it to be the San Jose scale,
which is found on fruit trees, and there
fore concluded that 1t would be useless TO
try to get rid of them, as they would come
in again from the surrounding thickets.
Specimens of this pine scale were obtained
near the Grammar School in Placerville
last week and forwarded by Commissioner
Paterson to the State Board for inspection.
In reply he has received the following
letter:
SAN Francisco, February s, 1890.
H. P. Paterson, Secretary County Board Of Hor-
hcuturdt Commissioners, Et Dorado County
DEAR SIR Yours of the 5th instant and speci-
mems Of scale en- pine received. The scale on
the pine is the common pine scale, Chi0RdSpts
pi1if08, and does not infest fruit trees; it, how
ever, infests various species of pines and
spruces There seems to be parasite working
on this scale, which has no doubt kept it in
check. You will notice that there is number
of small holes in almost every one, through
which the insect makes its escape. This is an
important factor because they are scales of the
insect remaining on the limbs of several gen.
eratiens, which have been destroyed by this
minute parasite. Yours truly,
B. NJ. DELoNG Secretary.
1t will be seen from the above that moth
ing is to be feared from this scale, and there
is probably no danger from those infesting
the manZanita and other bushes. If some
one will collect specimens of these varie-
ties, we will have them examined by a
competent entomologist, to determine
whether they are injurious to fruit trees
or not.
1t is to be hoped that all our citizens will
now go to work cheerfully to disinfect the
orchards. 1t is q matter of self-preserva-
ton. If the scale is not checked, it will
ruin every orchard in the county, and it is
unreasonable to blame men for trying to
save their orchards. If the trees are ne
elected they are sure to die, and if disin-
fected in time. they can be protected and a
crop of fruit secured by spraying. We can
not see why any sensible man should wish
to retain a scale-infested tree from which
he gets no fruit any more than he would a
glandered horse.

called to account for the outrage to the
flag of the United States on the San Bias
coast The colors were raised over Amer
lean property by Indian employees and
representatives of American owners; the
flag was torn down by Colombian naval
officials and trampled in the dust. 1t is
true that the standard was not foated by
any American official, and this will prob
ably be made an excuse for the outrage,
but at least the Colombian officials will
be expected to apologize for the unseemly
violence shown by the naval officers.

which will be early enough when the ad-
ministration is chosen at the ballot-box.
