Throwing Fruit AWAY.

Hon. H. f. Dangberg recently
visited San Francisco and en-
deayored to dispose of his large
crop Of apples. He found the
market glutted and says that ap-
pies are being dumped into the
bay. Twelve tons Of pears were
also thrown into the bay. Mr.,
Dansberg is making cider OF his
apples, and It is said he will have
the cider on exhibition at the
pavilion in Carson for visitors to
sample. The cider is made from
fine apples and has a delicious
fiayor.-Courier.
1t serves Dangberg right. lie

apples In the first place. A farmer
should not stop merely IN growing
things. he should manufacture
more cider instead OF consuming

PITIABLE JOURNALISM.

The boodlers and bosses who
have looted the State Of California
for several years past are now
fleeing the country by the Canadian
route. leaving their hired organs,
the Chronicle and Pest, to shrek
against the legality OF the Grand
jury.
The newspapers which defend
crime, present TO the public eye a
specticle more pitiable than the
fleeing rascals whose tracks they
arc trying to cover.
These papers are wealthy
enough to afford to be honest.
They were never seen objectinS
to any OF the grand juries whc
were the creatures OF Buckley s
isxglsries.
The instant a jury is drawn thai
really beginsto investigate crime
these organs howl so Justify thai

ity in California.

nominations or elections.

THE London Times is up in arms
against certain amendments which Sec

Irish land bill. These amendments the
cable does not specify, but we infer that
they are of q nature calculated to help
the tenants little. Though the cable
says that it is the general opinion in
England that BAlfour, in making these
amendments to his bill, is merely paw
ing the way to his entrance to the Lib
eral camp, we cannot believe that pos
sible, though he may be doing that very
thing. During the past ten days the
Liberals have won no less than three
seats in England from the Tories, and

may see the hand writing on the wall.
and may have decided not to wait till
the ship sinks. It would be a great
blow to Toryism in England if Balfour
should 20 over to the Liberals. Sails
bury would never get over it and as for
Speaker Smith, he would quit the coun-
try forever. We hardly think that Bal
four can be converted so easily.

IF MINNEAPOLIS wants to get the

must do a little more than talk. The
people OF the city, irrespective of party.
must put their shoulders to the wheel
and formulate some good line Of action,
otherwise we will not have the pleasure

named here. It will be no small Job to
get the convention here. particularly as
Chicago is already making preparations
for it, as we'll as a dozen other progress
i've cities. We hope to see the leading
men of Minneapolis come together soon
and formulate q programme. Mayor
Winston says that he, though a good
and true democrat. will put his name
down for good round sum to secure
the convention and entertain the dele
gates while here. The republican lead
ers should bestir themselves in time.
otherwise combinations will have been
made which will send the convention
somewhere else.
