Capital and Labor.

EDS. RECORD-UNIoN: Truly sorrow
ful do feel for 80. CO after having read
the paralyzing lecture he received from
Tryphena. How the comparison of calico
and coin must have impressed him-coin
for capital and calico for labor The
hungry mouths of calico and the greed of
coin-something sublime.
Suppose there was so much calico pro-
ducSd that IL took only 81 TO get forty
yards, where are the starving mouths
calico has TO feed?
True, the supply and demand are what
fix the prices of wages, and it is one of
natures laws. And is il one of natures
laws to work human beings twelve hours
per day? Is that natures supply?
One would think from their converse
tion that labor organized simply for that
resttul and fasting vocation called q
strike. II this combining was general it
would be all right. Did anyone ever see
SO vast thing happen like thunder
clap?
Is it not tyranny to give a man 500 per
day when his share shall be 81? And is
it tyranny to make q coward starve
quickly who would otherwise starve by
inches? And is it tyranny TO make the
coward keep in the ranks and march on
TO victory or death, rather than let him
fall out and perish by a slow process in
the desert?
Happy, poor Pat or Mike must feel to
be allowed 10 gaze at an immense man
sion, or at an immense accumulation OF
labor, while that same accumulation is
comprised partly of what actually belongs
10 him. He can go home and sit on a
box, feeling happy to think what has
been taken from him is piled up out oi
everybody else's way, excepting that oi
his robber. MURPHY.

The Capay Valley Land Company is offering the
most fertile lands in this beautiful valley upon terms which
enable the purchaser pay for the land out of its own
product viz Interest only for five years at per cent

ditlon payment of per cent cash and remaining
SO per cent at the end of five years. with interest annu
ally IN advance at per cent The various tracts owned
by the Capay Valley Land Company have been subd-
vded into and lots, which are for sale at
prices varying from $50 to $50 per acre. Similar un
improved land in Vaca Valeyh has recently been sold
$500 and $500 per acre.
These Capay Valley lands are under the most favor

be seen and during the coming season considerable ad-
ditional acreage will be planted One of the recent
sales made by the company was that of the Tancred
Tract, containing 600 acres, to colony ASSOCIATION.
This tract has been subdvided into forty holdings all OF
which will be planted to fruit trees this season.
The fine orchards on the Guinda Tract where 400

and it significant fact that several of the blocks are
owned by successful Vaca Valley huit-growers who ex-
pect to make their earliest shipments from here.

Too much stress cannot be laid upon the great adj
vantage to the fruit grower of being in early locality

NOT Qualified.
a Level Headed Judge Down in ven-
tura County.

Quite an amusing, yet very important
and proper ruling, was made by Judge
Williams on Thursday morning, and it's
a shame that more Of our Judges do not
entertain the same opinion.
n person had applied to be naturalized,
and witness was sworn and placed on
the stand, and the following colloquy oc-
Cured:
Judge Williams-How long have you
known the applicant
Witness-For more than five years.
Judge-Does he speak the English
language?
WitneSs-Not very well.
Judge-Has he ever read the Constitu-
ton of the United States?
Witness-I do not think he has.
Judge-Then he cannot be acquainted
with that instrument.
Witness-No answer.
Judge-Since a man who has lived in
the United States for more than five years.
and has not taken the pains to acquaint
himself with the organic laws of the
country in which he resides, nor acquired
the English language, cannot make a
good citizen, and would not understand
how to make a proper use Of the elective
franchise, he is not entitled to the rights
of suffrage, and the applicants petition
for naturalization is therefore denied.
The candidate and witness left the
courtroom quickly and dunceremoniousIy
Again we say it is a pity that more of our
Judges do not take this view of such an
important matter.-Ventura Free Press.

HE EARNED HIS BOARD.
The City Boarder Was Able TO Give
Points to the Farmers.

IO1nCS Co the farn0rS.
Two young men in Pike County have
farm of 500 acres, very stony, and with
no pasture land on any foot of it, says the
New York Sun. Their three cows were
turned out daily to pick up living in the
vast, thinly populated country. The big
gest cow wore q brass bell with dis
cordant note about its neck, and the other
two, either from love of this note or for
the sake of the society of the big COW,
kept close to her. Every evening one of
the men had to gird up his loins and start
out in the wilds in search of the COWS.
Sometimes they were found and some
times they We're not seen for several days.
No matter whether they were found or
not the farmers always came home after
these searches for them, wet and ex-
hausted and complaining loudly at the
necessity of this labor after hard days
work. After this had been going on dur
ing all the seasons for several years city
boarder gave the subject some thought.
Wouldn't they come home every night
of their own accord If you made a practice
of giving them at sunset little mess of
feed2 he said.
"By gumt That's SO. Inever thought
of that" was the reply.
The scheme was tried, and thereafter,
just as evening came on, the big COW,
with her two companions following after,
came winding slowly into the barnyard
with expectant expressions on their faces.
Near the home of these same farmers
stood the weather-stained remains of
ruined mill that had outlived its useful
ness many years ago. The ruins were an
eyesore, and tho farmers held many
lengthy discussions as to how they should
be removed. The beams were large and
heavy, and to their minds yoke Of oxen
and number OF men were necessary to
get rid of the old wreck. This would in
volve an outlay of money which the
farmers could under no circumstances
bring their minds to consider.
After they had talked over the matter
for many years they explained it to the
city boarder, and promised him that as
soon as they could afford it the old mill
would be removed.
Don't wait for money" said the city
boarder. ''The first time the wind is blow
| ing south put match to it,"
by gum! that's So" exclaimed the
farmers in chorus, slapping their legs.
a few nights later the mill went up in
flames and down in ashes.

ARARE OPPORTUNITY
Good Agricultural Land foiriS1O
to $40 per Acre.

The Pacific Improvement Company khas re-
Gently purchased twelve thousand ceres Of
land in the heart of Tehama County, for the
purpose OF promoting subdivision and settle
ment. This land embraces lands from first
class Sacramento Valley agricultural land, to
land Of fair average quality, and is offered at
from $40 to $40 per aero, in subdivisions or
40, so, 120, 16O and $40 acres.
The terms upon which these lands aredffered
are especially attractive. They will be sold In
subdivisions, as above indicated, by the pay
ment OF interest only for three years, etNhtch
time the purchaser can begin tie payment OF
principal by paying the first of five equal an
nual installments, 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 z per cent. persar.nun,
making payments extending over period of
eight years. Intending purchasers, are as
cured that this is an opportunity to purchase
land of fair average quality at $40 per acre,
and good agricultural land at $50 ap acre,
with other grades of land at prices to- CORE
spond between these figures.
The assertion is frequently made that good
lands, suitable for general farming and es-
peciaIly adapted for fruitgrowing, cannot be
had in California for less than from, SEQ TO
500 an acre. An examination of the land
subject Of this advertisement will 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 SIC an acre, on tennis Of
payment which should make the disposition
Of these lands to actual settlers result-easy Of
accomplishment.
The primary object of the purchase of this
body of land was the breaking up OF Q large
Eoiding for the purpose of promoting its set
tlement in smaller quantities and Its devotion
- diligent husbandry.

over the town in the same direction. 1t

MURDER AT RACINE.
The Mutiiated Body OF Dsnnis McCue, OF
Rockford, Found in the River.

The Mutiiated Body of DENNIS AcCue, OF
Rockford, Found in the River.
Racine, Wis, August 1S.-The hor-
ribly mutilated body of Dennis McCue.
a prominent citizen OF Rockford, Ill,
was found In the river here this morn
ing. The body was entirely devoid
OF clothing and one leg was cut off
at the trunk; the foot on the other
leg was missing; n long cash was
found in his breast from which the
lungs protruded and the throat was
cut, while a number OF deep knife
gashes were found on his face and
hands.
MeCue was last seen alive Friday.
He expected 10 leave for home the next
morning Ii is expected that he was
fouliy murdered and the body thrown
into the river, but the supposition
is that the ACKNOWLEDGMENT was caused
by the body being caught In a steamer
wheel. The coroner's jury is now
making a thorough investigation.
McCue was fifty-six years old and
prominent man in Rockford. Ii is
said that he usually carried consid-
erable money.
McCue was last seen on Saturday
night ut n saloon near the river. He
was armed with a revolver and began
firing into the floor. ~ is was feared
he might kill some one he was hustled
out and was seen to go toward the
river. What happened afterward is
not known. 1
