Don't think that any stimulant VIII DO!

Don't be deceived into using an inferior

Don't let your dealer deceive you or impose

Foraker to Nominate Mckinley.

COLUMBUS, O., June Elm an inter-
view with Press representative ex-gov-
ernor Foraker said that it was settled
that he was to present McKinley's
name before the Republican State Con-
vention. He thought that the contest
now going on between Campbell and
Neal would cost the Democracy thouS-
ands of votes, no matter who was nomi-
mated. In his opinion the opposition
to Campbell in Hamilton county is
greater than is generally supposed and
he predicted that Mckinley will carry
that county by ten thouaand majority.

THE CASE DISMISSED.
Persons Who Climb on Freight Trains
Cannot Recover Damages for Injuries.
u1r,,s Dr1rIs

The suit Of Jas. Reynolds VS.. the
Ohio River Railroad Company was ar
gued on demurrer in this court Tuesday.
This suit was brought to recover dam
ages from the o r. r. r. for injuries
received while young Reynolds was at
tempting to cross the = eet by climb
ing over freight train while it was
standing on the track. The plaintiff
claimed that the train had unlawfully
INSTRUCTED the highway, and while he
was attempting to cross the train was
set in motion, and his foot caught be-
tween the cars and was badly mashed.
The defendants demurred to the declara-
ton, on the grounds that the plaintiff
was a trespasser on the train, and conse-
ouently the defendants were not liable
for any damage done to him. The court
sustained the demurrer, and the case
was dismissed.

but the Campbell men have based the
apportionment on last years vote for

county will only have 81 votes. Thus
the anti Campbelites will be short Of
much of their expected strength in the

ports the following numbers of cases were
received in New York in the years
named: 1885, lemons, 972,0S6 boxes;
oranges, S54,609. 1886, lemons, 1,16l, ,SIS;

oranges, S29, ,501. 1890, lemons, l, ,495,0 ,0l6;
oranges, So, $50.
BY these figures there viii be noted
quite a falling Off in the importations of
oranges during the last three years, and
it is confidently predicted that receipts
from foreign countries will continue to
decrease, for the reason that the greatly in
creased products of California and Flor
ida viii drive the foreign fruit out of the
market
It must be remembered in connection
with the above statistics that they only
present the importahons TO New York
City. A considerable quantity of fruit is
received every year at the ports of New
Orleans, Boston and Philadelphia, but
the heaviest shipments are to New York.
These figures will also give good idea
OF the quantity of lemons now used an
nualiy. This fruit can, and should be,
grown in California much more largely
than it is. The principal difference in
quality between the imported lemons and
the California stock can be traced TO the
curing. When our California growers
have learned how this part of the work
should be done, no doubt California
lemons will take their proper place in the
market.
The ". r. Strong Company estimates
that there viii be 100000 orange and So

points north Of Sacramento) this year,
during the planting season, which ex-
tends from Januaryto May.

Mr.. Medley Owes His Good Fortune to

A resolution was adopted in the Senate
yesterday allowing John c. Medley OF
this city S5 a day to prepare q semi

years to have this work done, but the
duty is usually put upon the clerks at

offered by Democrat, Mr.. Ostrom OF
Sutter, and it fixed the per diem at Sc.
Mr.. Goucher, who is also q Democrat, OBJ
jected to the amount of the per diem. and
Mir. Ostrom agreed to make it s..
The resolution did not name any per-
son for the place, and its introduction by
q Democrat of such economical proclivi-
ties as Mr.. Ostrom caused some surprise
among Republicans.
Some of the members of the Committee
OH Attaches We're interviewed in regard
to the matter, and one of them replied
that he understood the resolution had
been offered in the einterest ofa gentleman
who had been an industrious and efficient
clerk at the desk during the last Demo-
cratic session, and who is ROW in poor
health-a most worthy gentleman and a
Democrat.
The Committee on Attaches was favor
able to this gentleman's appointment,
and it was thought the resolution, when
it should be reported back yesterday,
would name him for the place.
But there was caucus of Republican
members held yesterday morning before
the Senate met, and decided .'kick''
was made by several members who
wanted everything there was in sight for
Republicans. One Senator made strong
fight for Mr.. Medley, and carried his
point in the caucus.
That settled the matter for the gentle
man in whose interest the resolution was
introduced, and the probability is that
neither Mr.. Ostrom nor any other MEM
Der OF the minority will hereafter make
any proposition TO increase the number
of attaches of the Republican Senate-at
derstanding shall be had as to the fate
thereof.

For the Art Gallery-A Beautiful
Present.
Some months ago the California Mu-
scum Association, administering the do
mestic affairs of the e. s. Crocker Art
Gallery for the city, set about TO have a
suitable tablet placed upon wall of the
building, setting forth the fact of its pre-
sentation to the city and the date.
Such tablets are usually found upon
public buildings of that character else
where.
The association, not being by any
means wealthy, proposed to put up 4 very
modest panel, and to pay for it from its
own funds. In ascertaining the cost, it
was met by the generous offer Of William
Boyne, of this city, to prepare and pre-
sent to the city and association q proper
tablet. The association accepted the pub
lic-spirited offer, and the tablet has just
been delivered at the gallery and viii to-
day or tomorrow be set iuto the east
wall OF the main vestibula OF the second
floor. 1t is a perfect and unmarked
slab Of spotless white marble with
retreating molded-edGe to meet
the plane of the wall. 1t is five feet in
length and two feet in breadth, and is
very heavy. Upon its polished surface is
beautifully and deeply-ciliseled in old
English gothic, fancy script and orna-
| mental Roman letters, this inscription:
'''fhis Building, with its Art Treasures,
was presented to The City of Sacramento
by Mrs. Margaret Il. CrocIer, in trust for
the California Museum Association, May,

1t is probably the largest ta5let-slab of
the kind that has been prepared, and is
an artistic piece of work The associa-
ton viii suitably acknowledge the gen
erosity and public spirit OF Mr.. Boyne.

LEGISLATIVE COMMITTEES.
Some of the Bills That Were Acted {
at Last Nights Meetings.

Some of the Bills That Were Acted on
at Last Nights Meetings.
At last nights session of the Senate
Judiciary Committee Mr.. Goucher called
up his bill providing for the better dis
covery OF assessable property, and it was
decided to report the bill back with a
recommendation that it do pass. The bill
requires all insurance agents to furnish
to Assessors lists of the property insured
by them, in order that Assessors may be
guided in their efforts to arrive at a fair
valuation of the personal property within
their respective jurisdictions.
Mr.. Goucher, in explaining the merits
OF his bill, stated that he knew of case
last summer in which person petitioned
a County Board of Equalization for re-
duction of the assessment on his stock of
goods from SD, 900 to 81 800. and before the
matter was acted on the goods were de-
stroyed by fire. The owner then de-
manded $4,000 from the insurance COM
pany on that same stock.
He called attention to the fact that in
surance companies limited their policies
TO about two-thirds or three-fourths of
the value OF the property insured; and
the presumption was that they arrived
closer to the real value than Assessors
can hope TO. He believed there were
lllllOIiS OF COLLARS worth OF property in
the State that escaped taxation, and
which the proposed plan would bring to
light.
CONCERNING STATE PRINTER.
The Senate Committee on Elections last
evening had under consideration the bill
providing for the election of State Printer
as other State officials are elected. The
committee was by no means unanimous
on the proposition, but a majority voted
to recommend its passage.
ESTATES IN PROBATE.
Last night the Senate Judiciary Com
mittee considered and voted to recon-
mend for passage Mr.. Seawell's bill Is. b.
1851, providing that clerks of the several
courts may make preliminary orders
fixing the time of hearing petitions for
letters of administration, the time of
hearing return of sale of real estate, the
settlement of final accounts and final dis
tribution of estates of decedents.
ELECTRIC RAILWAYS.
Senate Bill No. 2, providing for the
ratification and validating of acts of
municipal authorities in granting fran
chises for electric railways, was the special
order before the Senate Judiciary Com
mittee last evening.
After an extended discussion the COM
mittee voted to recommend the passage
of the bill. There was but one dissenting
vote.
