SAN FRAscrsco, Cal, Aug IA we'll
authenticated story comes from Selma,
Fresno county. Of the appearance at that
place of two huge winged monsters that
resemble the tabled dragons. They live on
ducks and chickens, and have been seen by
. score Of persons.
Ore party watched for them on several
nights and 1t last got 9 close view. The
birds are said to have wings fully IL feet
long. Their bodies are six feet high when
they walk about. They sre noy covered
with feathers, and insead Of bill they
have hcg's snout, with sharp teeth.
watchers saw two birds descend to .
pond ard chase mud hens in smong the
grass, crur ching and devouring those they
caught. Their eyes were very prominent.
As soon as the men could ges good shct
they fired. One bird was wounded, but
escsped by running through marshes. The
track which it left was like an alligatof's,
with Q strong elsw on each foot.
The track is II inches wide and 10 long.
It is thought the birds may be survivsls Of
extinct species like the pterodactyl, which
have lived on the shores OF Tulare lake,
which have never been thoroughly ex'
plofed.

A CORRECT INSTINCT.

An assertion that ought to be truthful,
and may be regarded so except when the
spirit of jingoism triumphs over the cool
ness of American judgment, is made by
the New York Tribune that ''the American
instinct is against enlargement of the ma
tional domain by peaceable acquisition in
the South"
The instinct, whether universal or not,
is founded on good government. Our form
gence of the people, their capability for
self-government and their availability for
assimilation. To add to our population
the people of Cuba, Haiti or Guatemala,
would be simply to incorporate into our
government class utterly incapable of
performing the duties of American citizen
ship. We would either have to nullify
our principles of popular self-government
by holding those populations in a condi-
ton of disfranchisement, or we would
have to admit into citizenship a large
number of people wholly foreign to intel
ligent democracy. No acquisition of
sugar plantations or mahogany forests
would compensate for such a weakening
of our republican institutions.
The case of Canada is somewhat differ
ent, because both the territory and the
people are closer to us in location and
character. But even there We run against
a consideration calculated to make US
pause when we find that the one element
where annexation talk is most heard finds
its sole quarrel with the present Govern
ment of Canada on account of their desire
to preserve the French language and in
stitutions and to maintain the union of
Church and State. Are we prepared to
grant the wishes of the French Canadians
in those respects? That price might be
found to be too high, even if it purchased
the whole of Canada.
