That what's beneath should equal what Is

So fair that l seemed made to WOO:

Robert Buchanan, the poet. novelist
and reviewer, was a poor Scotch village
boy score of years ago. without fame
or fortune or prospects of either. The
success he has had in literature has been
won by hard work and merit. but today
he is one Of the foremost men in London

The Berlin correspondent OF q synd1-
cate Of provincial papers Is responsible
for the following story: "On the occa-
sion Of the reassenbling Of the holy
synod IN the Russian capital it was re-
solved to forward to his majesty, in ac-
cordance with traditional usage, tine
archipastoral benediction. The clerk
VINO was employed to prepare the docu-
ment formally communicating the pious
resolution made q curious mistake. By
a slip of the pen he wrote architectural
instead Of 'archipastoral.' and the reso-
luton was forwarded without the error
being detected
when the car received it he laughed
heartily and wrote on the margin, i
have no need of such blessing He
then dismissed the matter from his mind.
The document, however, with the impe-
rial annexation, found its way back 70
the holy synod, aud produced among the
members of that body the greatest sur
prise and CONSERVATION. Without stop
ping to investigate the matter the eccle-
siastics who were responsible for the res
olution jumped to the conclusion that
they had in some way or other incurred
the ears displeasure, and that his mai
esty's comment was an intimation TO
them that they were expected immedi-
ately to resign.
They accordingly went in body to
the imperial palace and humbly rendered
their joint aud several designations. It
was now the turn of the car to be over
whelmed with amazement, and it was
only after good deal Of embarrassment
and reciprocal explanations that the
matter was set right. The interview
terminated with mild hint on the part
of his majesty that, even in the records
of religious bodies, verbal accuracy is
very desirable quality"

General Snrpri.e.

The man eating tiger IS 4 creature
both cunning and audaciOus. One de-
scribel by Sir Samuel Baker, which be
came the victim Of a practical joke, was
n.ot the typical old and NANCY animal,
but "a powerful beast of almost unexam-
pied ferocity. 1t was a merciless high
wayman. which infested portion Of the
road, and frequently carried of the driv-
ers Of bullock carts 60 feast upon them
in the jungle.
The natives feared to travel with a sin
gle cart. and it became the custom to
pass the dreaded spot with several teams
together This. however. proved a vain
precauti0n. for the tiger seized thedriver
Of the hindmost cart and made away
with him in spite of the cries of those
left behind
At length Mr.. Duff, the superintend-
ent Of police, provided two covered carts,
each drawn as usual by two bullocks.
The leading one was fitted with strong
bars Of bamboo. which formed an i'm
penetrable cage. IN this the driver was
seated, and Mr. Duff himself sat with his
face toward the rear, prepared to IRE
through the bars at the moment Of at
tack
This would have been an exciting time
for the driver, but that individual was
personated by a dummy stuffed with
straw, winch might prove tempting 10
the tigers eye but would hardly satisfy
ms palate.
Slowly The carts moved along the
dreaded path. Suddenly there was
roar and crash in the jungle. A large
tiger bounded forth, seized the dummy
driver and dragged him away. Nothing
could have been better planned, but one
chance, necessary TO success, had been
forgotten. No sooner had the tiger
roared and bounded upon the cart than
the bulloclss. terrified beyond control,
went full gallop across the country, fol-
lowed by the other team, all in the Wild
est panic.
II was impossible to FIRE. and after
few seconds of desperate chariot racing
both carts capsized, and lay, with the
animals, III a heap on the ground. The
victorious man eater. victim of what he
must have considered a practical joke,
was left 70 a dry meal Of a straw stuffed
carter, instead Of the juicy native he
had expected 10 get.

HOW cALIroRNIA Is FAVORED.

There is really an opinion prevalent
among many sensible people in California
that free trade would be good thing for
this State. We can understand why import
ing merchants and bankers in New York,
having extensive connections in Europe,
should favor free trade with Europe. We
can also understand why the Southern States
which have heretofore depended upon their
great staple. cotton, for a support, having
bft few manufactures, should favor free
trade, for protection did not seem to increase
the price of cotton, and the South would
purchase manufactured commodities for
something less with free trade than with
protection. But for California to favor free
trade with countries where labor is not
more than One-fourtn, one-third or one-half
what il is in this State is somewhat difficult
to realize. California, under the new tariff,
will receive on the sugar it produces cents
per pound. Our fruits of nearly every de-
scrip ton are protected. On figs we receive
2h cents per pound, on our plums cents
per pound. on our raisins % cents per
pound, on our almonds TX cents per pound,
on cur oranges we receive protection to the
amount of 81 30 per thousand. Our still
wines have protection amounting, In casks,
10 80 cents per gallon, and in bottles to
81 60 per case OF one dozen quart bottles, and
sparkling wine 10 So per case of one dozen
quart bottles. Our manufactures Of various
descriptions are protected equally with the
other States of the Union. 1t would be sur
prising If a people as intelligent as is ours
could be inOculated with free-t trade doc
trlnes, and be made to believe it was of
little or no advantage to California to have
protection.
With such facts as the above before them
our citizens are told free trade would be
good thing for them.
The morning call., 1891-11-11
THE PEOPLES COUNSEL.

On two or three occasions delay has been
caused in the action of the Grand Jury by
the inefficiency of the counsel for the
people. Now the peoples counsel make
false move in an attempt to bring the ques-
ton of the legality of the Grand Jury before
the Supreme Court and again they are un-
prepared to meet a condition of things that
they had every reason to anticipate. 1t is easy
when the lawyers on both sides work for
delay to make delay unavoidable The
Grand Jury has now been in existence
about nine weeks, and no one yet knows
whether or not it is a legal body. The time
of the court and the jury has been taken up
| with appeals on minor points, leaving the
real question as yet unsettled. A trifling
| matter last Monday resulted in weeks
posIponement. Whether or not the peoples
counsel will be ready next Monday is a
| matter of conjecture. Considering the
amount of work to do the progress is pro-
vOkingIy slow. The question is constantly
recurring if some side door will not be
| opened through which both the Grand Jury
| and the booders will disappear. While the
| public does not exactly know what the Grand
| Jury has done, it knows what it has not done.
! 1t knows that none Of the principal boodiers
! have yet been called to account. The men
| VINO have bought legislators IN bunch, pay
ing lump sum for required number, do
| not seem in any especial fear that their
methods will be inquired into. 1t is said
that great pressure is being brought to bear
upon individual jurors to prevent an investi-
! CATION of certain cases. 1t may be said also
| that there is no boodler Of considerable i'm
| portance who has not dependents whose
livelihood depends upon the escape of their
principal. Consequently when inyestiga-
tiOn turns in any direction an alarm is
sounded and a show of force made to call
the Grand Jury off. One Grand Juryman
has one friend among the boodlers and
another another. In more than one case
already the work has been blocked by these
appeals to personal interest or personal
friendship. If the difficulties inherent to
the work are augmented by slothful or in
capable counsel for the people. the public
may as well prepare themseIy to hang
| their harp upon the willow.

on i HIGHER LEVEL.

Our friends of the Sacramento Record
Union seem to believe that the inhabitants
Of san Francisco have little or no enter
prise. for in speaking of the efforts to in
duce certain conventions to assemble in this
city, the paper says:
The same spirit Of determination shown In
lie promotion OF the best interests OF the whole
state would lend 10 lift san Francisco TO higher
level. and TO invest It with better business char
acrer.
We are free to admit that San Francisco
has neglected her interests in permitting a
few men to control every avenue OF commu-
ujcatIon leading to and from the Eastern
States. We have not only paid excessive
freight charges ourselves for merchandise
transported over the Central and Southern
Pac.hc railroads. but we have permitted
combinations with the Northern Pacific
Railroad, and with the Canadian Pacific
Railroad also, to our injury. We have sub
mitted 10 this in San Fran cisco, and have
paid our money freely to men who have
made ont Of the public at least one hundred
and fifty millions OF dollars, and We have
permitted the inhabitants of every portion
Of California to be taxed excessively also in
the way of freight. THIS is wrong, and
Ire wonder is that California is rs we'll off
rs We find her at present. Californians
have generally paid their taxes, but cor
porstion out of which four or i've persons
have made fortunes ranging in tie aggre-
gate from one hundred and fifty millions
TO two hundred millions has not paid its
taxes. We are not sure but the Record
Union is right when it suggests that we
ought to "lift ourselves TO higher level"
Again. san Francisco has permitted its
judges aud other ofice-holders 70 be uomi-
mated by railroad employees, and we are
sorry to say Cur citiz-ns have voted for
them without even a murInur
