TO the Editor OF THE ADVOCATE.
We hear considerable talk about high
compensatlons paid public officials such
as Congressman, Senators, and the presi-
dent of the United States, who receives
$4,000 year. OF course their pay is
rather steep, but we would not grumble
80 much about the high price paid, II
they would only do something for the
people; but they do nothing for the bene-
fit Of the people, and what ls worse they
are constantly schemlng with the Shy
locks Of Wall street to rob the people.
The people pay these traitors handsome
salary to do their duty as servants Of the
the people, but they utterly disregard the
wishes of their constituency. They are
always deaf to the cry Of the people but
the slightest hint from Wall street they
are ever ready to obey.
What have the presidents who have
occupied the chair since the days Of
Abraham Lincoln done for the good Of
the peopls2 They have done nothing,
absolutely nothing, and they do not In
tend to. Have Cleveland and Harrison
been worth $4,000 to the people? Have
they been worth so cents?
They farmed out from forty to sixty
millions of dollars Of the peoples money
to the so-called national banks, when the
people were literally starving (So to
speak for the use Of that money. The
banks paid the government no interest
for the use of that money, but the Shy
lock bankers wrung an exorbitant rate
Of interest from the people. No 1t Ia not
the high salaries paid our law makers
that is hurting us 30 much. 1t is the
selling themselves to the money power
ofWall street for Doodle, selling the sacred
rights Of the people for the "sordid ore"
How long will this continue? Just as
long as the people continue to read the
old lying partisan press and vote the
old party ticket The people must
come together and be united on the new
party platform, which is platform OF
good principles on which we can all stand
united, east and west, north and south. 1t
is possible for the people Of this country
to better their condition q thousand times;
it can be done only by unity Of action
at the ballot box. So, brother farmers, let
us be alive to our interests, circulate
among the people reform literature, edu-
cate and agitate and in 1892 make bold
strike for justice and liberty.

appointment as appraisers OF the estate of
the late B. w. Flye.
Yesterday Louis Ahcatto. the Brazilian
who jumped from railroad train on Sat
urday night, was examined before Judge
Van Fleet and committed to the Stock
ton Insane Asylum.
A petition in insolvency has been filed
by John Mckay, keeper of a livery and
feed stable. His liabilities aggregate
S935 IS, and his assets S437 10, of which
S225 is exempt from execution.
The Chinaman known as All Moosev,

lunatic, and as much Of a lunatic as he is
the other.

request all persons having fancy work or
dolls for that benefit to leave them at
Mrs. McCreary's by Saturday, December
18th.
The members of the Ladies' Museum
Association and the wives and daughters
of members of the California Museum
Association are requested to meet at

the appearance of encroachment upon
vested rights. The reform of laws gov
errlng the ownership of property, where
the species of ownership against which
their provisions are launched is found to
be inconsistent with the good of society,
has usually been denounced as confisc;t-
ton; bat there are species of ownerships
thousand times more dangerous and re-
voting than the confiscation of property
IN some instances. In the case of slave
holding, the property of the STAKEHOLDER
was confiscated because confiscation was
lesser crime than slavery and because
the Shareholder would consent to no
other remedy. The unrestricted, unregu-
lated ownership of certain species of
property may confiscate the natural
rights of man, and large holdings
belongs to this class. 1t confiscates the
birthright and makes a man born on the
soil a treSpasser. 1t denies to q man the
full measure Of citizenship and permits
his residence III a country only on the
basis Of a tenant. 1t expatriates him, be-
cause it leaves no choice between emigra-
tion and slavery"
The remedies which the RECORD
UNION promises to offer viii be anxiously
looked for by all, and if plausible viii
meet with hearty support by the masses.

PLEASANT ENTERTAINMENT

The Young Women's Christian Tenn
perance Union Last Night.
The entertainment given by tho Young
Women's Christian Temperance Union
last night was success in every way.
Every number on the programme was
well rendered, and appreciated by the
audience.
Some of the young ladies looked very
dangerous when performing the saber
exercise. The young women are sin
cerely grateful to the singers and elo-
cutiOnists who so kindly contributed
their share of the programme.
The first number was a vocal Quartet,
by Miss G. Schubert, Mrs. Clara Barthol-
omew and Messrs. NJ. X. Barrett and l..
+. Smith. The either duet, by Messrs.
Myers and Tate, was encored. \ vocal
solo, by Mr.. Greenlaw, followed, after
which Robert Fisher gave a reading
from, Hamlet" Mrs. Addie Carter sang
contralto solo, after which came the
cavalry drill, by twelve members Of the
y. w. c. I. L. Then followed recita-
ton by Miss f. Jeanette Burke, a vocal
duet, by Mrs. Percy Hoss and Mrs. b.
+. Howard.
The last number on the programme was
reading by Guy Durreli. which
was twice encored and much enjoyed by
the laughing and weeping audience.
Refreshments closed the evenings
entertainment.

Mental science.

Hypnotism is simply new name for
stated Professor Calder
wood of Edinburgh in a recent lecture.
The condition is one of lucid sleep. 1t is
artificially induced, but not by anything
in the nature of electricity or magnetism,
and no Influence emanates from the BODY
of the operator. The result, in the opin-
ion of the lecturer, may be attributed to
the wearying Of a single organ or line of
nerve. The character of the mesmeric
sleep is torpor, the cataleptic state, or the
state of the somnambulist. Many and
perhaps all people are liable to it, but not
against their will. The operator cannot
regulate the actions of the patient, but
must make the suggestion clear to his
subject, who interprers and applies it for
himself. The study of hypnotism for the
cure of disease and as an anesthetic is
desirable. bat public exhibitions should
De forbidden by law.

THE NOTE OF ALARM.
Reform VIII Meet With Hearty Popu
lar SupDOrt.
woodland Mail, d -cember 6th.I

Woodland Mail, d -eember 9Th.
The researches of the RECORD UNION
to illustrate the tendency, as well as the
evil effect, of large land-holders to in
crease their holdings in the various
counties of the State, makes a rather
discouraging showing. Yesterday that
paper devoted its attention 10 Butte
County.
1t finds that in 1875 the aggregate num-
Der of acres held by the 100 largest land
owners in the county was 20S, ,59S; in 1850
1t had increased 10 z53, ,315; in 1885 to 299,-
S23, and in 1880 the amount was increased
10 S57 ,923, an increase of 167, ,325 acres in
fifteen years. At the same rate OF in
crease how long would it be until these
100 landowners would own.all, or neatly
all, the land in Butte County? 1t is an
alarming condition of affairs, and the
note of alarm sounded by our esteemed
contemporary is timely. The swallow
ing up of the small farms by the larger
ones can bring nothing but the most dis
astrous results. After reviewing the evils
OF the system the RECoRD-UNIoN philos-
ophizes as follows:
1.-The tendency which threatens to i'm
poverish the masses of our people must
be met and arrested. The means for the
accomplishment of this result must be
adequate, even though they should have
