Old-Fashioned Preacbers.

1t may not be generally known, but it
is nevertheless a fact, that some of the
greatest and best preachers in the world
do not use slang or abusive language, or
pass around the hat for a living, says the
Atlanta Constitution. They suffer many
hardships, and as rule remain poor all
their lives, but they never resort TO SEN
sational methods in order to draw crowds
| and ill their pockets. Many of them in
their old age feel all the evils of poverty
and die neglected and III want but their
work lives after them, and they go out of
! the world happy in the consciousness of
having fought the good fight. The evan
gelists who go up and down the land
startling the people with their extrava-
giant and unique manners and sayings no
doubt do some good in their way with
certain classes, but it would be very un-
safe for the preachers of the day TO imi-
tate them. Among soberminded people
there is a growing conviction that the old
way of preaching the gospel is the right
way, and their opinion is more likely to
be right than wrong.

Too much stress cannot De laid upon the great adj
vantage to the fruit grower of being early locality
In cases makes the difference between success
and failure The industrious orchardist of Capay Valley
may assured that he will derive all the benefits gained
by the first fruit shipments of the season. and that 20
of this rich land when the trees are in bearing
will yield handsome and assured income.
The Capay Valley Land Company has agent

blocks and waterworks with pipes laid in the Streets
besides extensive warehouses and numerous residences
The town has postoffce, school-house and weekly

ARARE OPPORTUNITY
Good AgriculturalLand for $40
to $40 per Acre.


The. Pacific Improvement Company has rel
Gently purchased twelve thousand ceres Of
land ID the heart of Tehama County, for tha
purpose of promoting subdivision and settle
ment. This land embraces lands from first
class Sacramento Valley agricultural land, to
land of fair average quality, apd is offered at
from $40 to SEQ per acre, in subdivisions OF
40, 80. 12o, $50 and $50 acres.
The terms upon which these lands are offered
are especially attractive. They will be sold In
Subdivisions, as above indicated, by the pay
ment of interest only for three years, at which
time the purchaser can begin the payment of
principal by paying the first of five equal an
nual installnents. Thus no part OF the prin-
cipal Is TO be paid for three years, and then
the purchaser is TO have FIVE years in which to
pay five equal annual installments, with in-
terest at the rate of 2 per cent per annum,
making payments extending over a period Of
eight years. Intending purchasers are as
sured that this is an opportunity to purchase
land of fair average quality at $40 per acre,
and good agricultural land at $40 an acre,
with other grades Of land at prices to corre-
spond between these figures
The assertion Is frequently made that good
lands, suitable for general farming, and eS-
pecially adapted for fruit-growing cannot DO
had in California for less than from $50 to
S1Oo an acre. An examination of the land
subject cf this advertisement viii prove to
home-seekers that this is an opportunity for
the purchase of good agricultural land at $40
an acre, and for qualities grading down to fair
agricultural land at S10 an acre, on terms OF
payment which should make the disposition
of these lands to actual settlers O result easy of
accomplishment.
The primary object OF the purchase Of this
body of land was the breaking up of q large
holding for the purpose of promoting its set

TRUTHS FROM M,KINLEY.

The outlook for the Democratic party in
Ohio is not encouraging, and before the
campaign is over Governor Campbell will
wish he were out of the race. This year
there are several national questions to
face and Campbell's personalities will not
be aided by calamities such as happened
two years ago. Major Mckinley is telling
some great truths to thousands of
people which will take all the wind
out of the Democratic sails. He
addressed ten thousand people at
Bowling Green yesterday and gave sew
eral unanswerable reasons why the tariff
of the Republican party as represented by
his bill was doing an inestimable amount
of good for the farmer and manufacturer
For illustrations he recited the case of
two farmers, one Canadian and the
other an American, who disposed of their
wheat at Buffalo, the Canadian taking
home but 80 cents while the American
carried away 100 cents. The other case
was that of captain who carried rails to
Toledo and admitted that if it were not
for the tariff he could make cents more
on his wares. The duty in each of these
instances came out of the foreigners
pockets. With such unanSwerable argu-
ments as these and many others that are
being made, the Democrats will find that
it is not every cloud that has a silver lin

SATISFACTORILY SETTLED.

The differences between the manufact-
urers and the Flint Glass Workers have
been settled and the men will go back to
work as soon as the factories are ready to
reopen. The principal difference between
the men and the manufacturers was with
regard to half an hour of labor, which the
men did not think they should be COM
PEELED to perform. Conference commit
tees argued long over these thirty minutes
and then a compromise was effected,
the manufacturers agreeing to a re-
duction of fifteen minutes and the men
concluding it was better to work quarter
of an hour longer than to stand out. There
were between eight and nine thousand
men affected by this compromise, and they
are to be congratulated upon the peaceful
settlement of a much veXed question. 1t
is to be hoped that the difficulties stand
ing between the other glass workers and
the manufacturers will experience as salts

PROGRESS IN THE SOUTH.

The campaign against the lottery in
Louisiana has already eXemplified the
truth of long g-standing assertion of The
DISPATCH That is, that when the South
erners are left to divide on new issues,
without the red rag of the war questions
shaken in their faces, they will prove
amenable to the influences of civilized
politics. The proof to which we refer is
the declaration by Judge McClegg, one of
the anti-lottery leaders, made to suppress
the too radical methods proposed by some
of the anti-lottery campaigners, as fol-
lows:
We are all in favor of Kidding the State of
this lottery incubus, but it is not to be
wrought by insulting friends or shooting
neighbors for an honest difference of opin-
ion. Blood and slaughter never reach vital
principles. We can put down the Hessians
and the boodlers in our midst by the only
legitimate means that is left to US, the bal
lot
This is sound doctrine, and it is to be
hoped that the anti-lottery reformers will
pay heed to it. But Judge McClegg, like
everyone else who pays any attention to the
subject, must perceive that the abandon
ment of attempts to carry elections by the
shotgun policy will be made much more
difficult on account of the resort to that
policy in the past. What is true now was
true when White Leagues and Kuklux at
tempted TO rule elections in the South.
Blood and slaughter did not reach vital
principles then any more than at present.
and the condemnation of any attempt to
resort to them now carries with it the con-

The controversy between Mr. Niedring-

haUS' latest pTOnunciamentO, into con-
trOvcrsy between that gentleman and the
statutes of the United States BY making
this change in the situation Mr.. Niedring-
hauS viii increase the measure he occu-
pies in public attention; but will not en-
hance his reputation for discretion or good

The attitude Mr. NiedringhauS now as
sumeS-unleSs he is woefully miSquoted-is
that he has a right to bring in tin plate
workers. notwithstanding the law as con-
stIued by the Treasury Department. Such
an assertion indicates that he has found
lawyer to give him an opinion to that
effect, which, considering the facility of
legal talent in furnishing the opinions rich
clients desire, is a rather insecure founda-
ton on which to engage in knocking
down the law of the United States.
1t would be much more valuable advice
to Mr. Niedringhaus to inform him that the
contract labor law is very stubborn fact

wHICHIS MOST CIVILIZED?

Recent operations of American Indians
III real estate are exciting the comments of
the press, pitched III rather critical tone
Thus the fact that the Sissetons and Wah-
pOtons are receiving S213 for each man,
woman and child from the sale of their
lands, is considered worthy of slightly sar-
castle note, although those tribes are out
done by the Cour d'AIenes, who get
S1,l74 per capita for lands ceded
II is true that these transactions, and
the distribution of the proceeds equally
among people who are from the nature of
the case ignorant and unsOphisticated, is
such a departure from precedentS obtain
ing among the whites as to excite especial
wonder If the property to be bought
We're owned by an equal number of sim
ilarly JntutOred whites, the methods would
be extremely different. The first step
would be bear movement in real estate,
so that gentlemen on the inside of the
transaction could buy up all claims to the
land at a song. Then the plum would be
plucked and the speculator would get the
profits. The way in which the sums paid
for these lands are recklessly cut up into
inconsiderable amounts, for every one
equally, instead of utilizing the opportu-
nitv to make a millionaire OF two at the
cost Of the people, must be taken as a sure
sign of savagery 1t would never be per-
miUted in civilization.
Or, to suggest an awful doubt, is the
fact that the Indians divided honestly and
equally the proceeds of their common
property, sign that the administration Of

HARDLY VALID,

TheTeiS is room for a wide difference of
opinion as TO the good taste of the relatives
Of Mrs. Mary Hamilton Schuyler, of New
York, in seeking to prevent by injunction
the erection of her statue in the Woman's
Department of the Worlds Fair. The
ground on which this action was based is
that during life Mrs. Schuyler disliked all
u0t0riety, and would have shrunk from
the thought of such an exhibition.
But this as an objection is singularly in
opposite. The modesty of people during
their lifetime is 10 reason why due honors
should not be paid their memory after
death; and there is wide difference be-
tween the erection of a statue to commem-
crate the virtues of a worthy man or
woman and the pushing of themselves into
undue prominence during their lives Ac-
corsng TO this theory there would be an
objection to erecting impressive monu-
IeutS over the graves of our loved ones
whom we would not willingly rank as
other than modest, while the idea points
clearly to the conclusion that statues must
not be erected save to those who were
fond of notoTiety and were willing to push
themselves into prominence.
It is not likely this is the real ground of
objection. The probability is that the
Schuyler family is acting under the i'm
preston that this statue will somehow con-
meet the reputation of the deceased lady
with the advanced theories concerning
women; and that is an objection peculiarly
strong to that ariStocratic circle. But
while the real objection might not hold
good in law it would have a good deal
more validity than the one assigned.
