SAN FRANCISCO. Jan. 25.-At the
city Of san Jose the water is higher
than ever before known. At Santa
Clara the principal thoroughfare i.
covered with water for half mile.
The district north and south of San
Jose is flooded. No trains were able
to move today, owing to washouts
At Santa Cruz the water reached
the highest point ever known and
overilOwed a portion OF the city.
At Emigrant Gap, in the noun
tains, where two through trains are
imprisoned, the rain began falling
yesterday afternoon but afterwari:
changed to snow.
The Western Union linemen re.
port in the vicinity of Tamarack
more than a mile with not n tele-
graph pole in view, and it Is neces
sary to dig a trench through the snow
more than twenty feet deep in ordei
to free the wires.
Provisions are getting very scarce
at Emigrant Gap. At Chico, in the
Sacramento Valley, the Sacramento
River is flooding the entire country
lying near it. It is estimated that
it is fifteen feet higher than it was
during the last flood. From Gey-
serville to Healdsburg, a distance OF
eight miles, is vast sea of water.
The river spreads over an area OF
five miles in width at point where
Dry Greek joins the Russian River.
Relief parties were out in boats all
day y esterday rescuing people from
their homes. At Knights Ferry.

south Of Stockton, the people began
moving out Of their houses in the
lower portion Of the town this after
noon, owing 10 the flood.

THE PARNELL COMMISSION.

The published report of the Par
nell Commission which was present
ed to Parliament February 18th, to
judge by the Geographic reports Of
it, substantially confirms the account
of it's contents previously circulated.
No one who has not carefully fol-
lowed in detail the multitudinous
columns OF the evidence as it was
given in Court, can form an exhaust
ingly accurate judgment of the whole
case. The result seems to be, how
ever, victory, though by no means
an unmixed one, for Parnell and the
other accused Irish members. The
vindication of Parnell seems to have
been more complete than that Of the
others
The Commission charges the de.
PENDANTS generally with being con-
cerned in conspiracies to bring about
the independence of Ireland, and
with encouraging intimidation and
agrarian crimes. While political
TRIALS present conditions most sever
ely trying to the impartiality of
judges, probably the good faith and
substantial fairness Of the members
OF the Commission, will be generally
admitted. There is unfortunately
no antecedent improbability that the
zeal, impotence, aud burning sense
of wrong of the Irish leaders may
have led them to overstep the limits
prescribed by the law and sanctioned
by sound morals. Every such excess
which the friends of Ireland will
not be inclined to Judge harshly
must now appear to the parties
themselves as we'll as to the world al
large, very great mistake.
There is lesson in all this fol
the politicians here whose zeal fol
ends sometimes makes them toe
little fastidious as to means. The
history of our century is full of ex
amples of the use of doubtful instru
ments and methods in a really good
cause,-and Of many more cases O
the same use, when the cause was
earnestly supposed to be good. His
tory condemns them all, with thu
same sweeping impartiality. I,
every case alike the Importance o
the momentary end was exagger
ated, and more was sacrificed t,
gain it than could possibly b.
achieved in the winning. TIL,
purest methods are the safest ant
best-even though they involve de
feat for the moment.

Gated should be successful there and
yet permanently unsuccessful here.
There IS no necessary connection
between the business OF planting
and that OF grinding, if indeed as
above remarked, the latter does not
do better alone. Grinding on shares
has often been tried in this coun-
try, chiefly IN the earlier years OF the
sugar industry, and has generally We
believe, resulted disastrously for the
planter. At any rate the system has
never established any foothold. The
plan followed in a large Cuban
house, mentioned in the report, is
totally different from grinding on
shares, and SO far as we are aware, has
never been tried here on these pre-
else lines. The mill buys the cane
from the planter at rate based upon
the market price of sugar at the time
when the cane is ground. Thus the
planter shares in the benefits and
burdens of a rise or fall in the mar
ket. The price varies further accord
ing to the density OF the juice.
Nothing but experience can deter
mine precisely what system would bs
best adapted to our conditions here
but some such system, if success
fully introduced, might go far tc
solve our labor troubles. Any plan
tation can try the experiment if i
will furnish land and tools to single
laborer with any industry, energ.
and desire to rise. It is worth try
ing.

THE LANGUAGE OF THE FUTURE.

Pre-eminently the language of the
future will be English. 1t is the stall
wart language because it is the mother
tongue of two stalwart and one long
lived nation. Its rudimentary idioms
were in use at the founding of London,
forty years subsequent to the crucifixion
OF Christ
It's vitality is in direct ratio with the
vitality of les parent nation. The rest
less enterprise of English exploration
has carried the language with its flag
around the world. Nelly Bly,, speaking
her native tongue, can be understood
in every port and every station en-
braced in her flying circumvallaiion OF
the world. The English language has
broken down the barriers of old-time GUS
toms in diplomacy. To American infu-
ences is due the discarding Of French at
the Samoan conference at Berlin and
the adoption, for the first time, of Eng
lish in International discussions.
During the period of Rome's full
fruitage of supremacy, before political
decay attacked the empire, Latin was
the universal language OF limited
world. The early English dramatist.
wrote in a language known TO but
5000 900, and Thomas Jefferson's in
augural address could have been read
but by 10000. 900 people. At the latter
period French was the language of from
81, OOO,O to $4,000. 900 people. FIT,
years ago the German language was in
as great favor numerically as English.
Not SO to-day. To German is accorded
a speaking clientele OF 10000 900: /,
French, As 900, 600; to English, 100, 900,
600. Should ever again the stars have
occasion to sing together, it can we'll b,

SUGAR EXPERIMENTS.

A report OF the United States De-
partment of Agriculture of sugar
experiments made at Magnolia sta
ton, Louisiana, contains among
much other interesting matter, the
following statement: 1.-THE Cuban
manufacturers are beginning to
realize what the Germans long
since learned, viz, that it is more
profitable for the sugar house to
attend to the manufacture only and
leave the agriculture to tenants OF
Independent farmers. This system
should be attempted by the planters
OF Louisiana"
There is of course naturally some
difference between the conditions OF
the sugar industry in this country
and in Cuba, but probably there is
no reason why the plan above indi-
