THE CRISIS IN LOUISIANA.

The lottery contest in Louisiana draws
very near to the day of election. No one
can safely predict what the outcome will
be, though the prospects of the anti-lot-
terry people are now quite bright. But
this all sensible people do know, that if
the lottery wins at the polls Louisiana
will be put into shackles heavier than
ever for quarter of a century more. AS
Chief Justice Cooley puts it, long expert
ence in every country that has legitima-
tized lotteries, proves their operations to
be all demoralizing.
He adds that this experience proves
that the practice of investing in them
leads to neglect of business and to general
shiftlessness on the part of investors,
and therefore tends to impoverish the
whole community through diminishing
the ordinary gains from labor. 1t may
very safely be asserted that thousands of
people are every year reduced to poverty
through an uncomfortable habit of in
dulging in the purchase of lottery ven
lures; that families are brought to want;
and that murders, robberies and suicides
result to number that, in the aggregate,
is appalling. This has come so univers-
ally to be accepted as truth, and the
proofs are so overwhelming, that in
nearly adj enlightened countries lotteries
are now forbidden by law.
Judge Cooley goes on to say that ''the
moral sense of the world would be
shocked if any leading European govern
ment should at the present time estab-
hsh lottery for the pnrposes of public
revenue, as was not uncommon only
century ago." What then will be thought
OF the greatest of republics. nation
claiming to be foremost in moral adj
vancement and conservation Of the clean
and pure, if one of its States becomes the
nest of infamy from which for another
quarter of century shall be bred the
worst of gambling evils? If the lottery
triumphs, it will not be to the reproach
OF Louisiana alone, but to the shame of
all the people of all the States For a
single spot in the republic from which
such seed can be sown broadcast will be as
potential for i'll and as prolific of scandal
as if in the whole nation lotteries were
legal.
If there is in the few days left before
the Louisiana election any influence in
the United States that can be exerted in
Louisiana in antagonism to the lottery
monarchs, it should be put forth with
vigor and at once.

TAKING 1T EASY.

Well-Paid Contractors Who Laugh at
Taxpayers.
Sacramentans are long-sufIering peo-
pie and slow to anger. Those of other
communities would have arisen almost
as one man at such an outrage as has
been perpetrated upon the people of this
city the last few days. There are men re-
ceiving their pay right along for keeping
down the dust of the streets, but they
have not done it. a little water has been
thrown upon J and X streets, bat the res
ldentS OF nearly all the rest OF the city
have been left 10 their tate.
esterday, when the air became so
heavily charged with dust and dirt from
the thirty nlile-an-hour gale, few carts
were sent out and a few outside blocks
wet down little, but that was all.
only few days ago the citizens, in
their wisdom, saw fitto elect new Street
Commissioner, whose duty it is in part
TO see that the men who draw down the il
hundreds of dollars every month for
not sprinkling the streets give the peo
pie some service for this money; but the
new Street Commissioner must have
been too busy to look after them.
1t was absolutely painful yesterday for
persons who had 10 be on the streets.
The two inches Of dust on the unc0bbled
streets-even on the newly graded ones
was kept whirling in clouds by the wind,
almost binding those who had to face
the gale.
Mayor Comstock was asked last even
ing il the public were to have no relief
from this earlybought nuisance, and he
replied that he would to-day give the
matter his personal attention, and if the
sprinkling contractors did not fulfill
their obligations to the public he would
compel them to do so.
The new charter provides that the
Street Commissioner shall be an APP
pointee of the Mayor and Trustees, and
if he fails TO see that the streets are not
properly attended to his services can
readily be dispensed with.

SAVE COPIES.

On Wednesday the legal publication
period for the new charter expires. Be-
tween that date and the day of the cleo
ton is considerable time. In that Pc
Rod the charter will be much discussed.
and there will be need very frequently to
refer to it. Interpretations may be made
from it. and misrepresentation as to its
terms will arise. 1t will therefore be
wise for all citizens to save copy of the
REcoRD-UNIoN containing the charter
that 1t may be at hand for reference at
any time. If there are any who have not
studied the document carefully they
ehould now do so.

A SLUGGISH STREAM.
1t Gets Foul and Poisonous Unless it is
Kept Constantly Flowing.


Kept Constantly Flowing.
At this season of the year people feel more
or less weak, run down, wearied and depressed.
1t has been commonly supposed that it is due
to impurities of the blood, and that only by
purifying the blood can good health be Sc
cured. Is this true? Let us see The blood
gets impure because it is sluggish. How does
a stream get i'm pure, with green scum and
poisons on the top? Simply because it doesn't
run. A running stream is not impure, but a
stagnant or sluggish stream always is If.
therefore, you would keep your blood pure,
keep it moving, keep it throbbing. The mo-
IN ent it begins to be sluggish IL will begin to
be impure, and you will feel the effects in
tired weak feelings, depressed emotions, and
follow. The proper way to keep the blood
stirring is by the use of Il pure stimulant in
moderation. Stimulate il gently and il will
keep in constant, healthy motion, and good
health will follow. There is but one way IN
which this can be done, and that is by the use
of the purest and best stimulant you can find
preferably whisky, and there is but one abSo-
lutely pure, medicinal whisky known to the
world, and that is Duffy's Pure Malt Scien-
fists admit this, the doctors all confirm it. 1t
is more generally used to-day than any other
whisky which the world has ever seen, and il
is popular only through its merit Do not let
any druggist or grocer deceive you by saving
they have something Just as good" ''some-
thing they can recommend" etc. When any
dealer says this he has an interested motive
which usually IS 10 sell you something CHEAP
and inferior, on which he can make more
money. Do not be so deceived.

= The charge that the real motive of the
Traffic Association at San Francisco is to
break down interior competition with
the distributive capacity of San Fran
cisco has stirred the metropolis to its
commercial center. When the RECORD
UNION made the charge, and called atten-
ton to the fact that representative mer-
chants Of San Francisco had, some time
ago, petitioned the railroad companies to
abandon interior terminal points, it knew
precisely what that charge meant. and
that 1t could be substantiated. We now
have San Francisco paper that is more
brutally clamorous and vituperative than
all the rest. confessing that it is true. as
we have charged, but explaining that the
San Francisco merchants have repented
and do not press these claims. In other
words, it proposes that the commercial
interests of the interior shall repose faith
IN that statement and relax the vigilance
that self-preservation dictates as the first
law for the conservation of their own in
terests. 1t may be accepted as fact that
in all this matter nothing will be taken
for granted from San Francisco. s'Once
bitten, always careful" will probably be
the maxim interior importers and bust
ness men will keep in view. 1t may be
suggested also that in the contention now
going on in San Francisco the interior
has such a profound interest that our
commercial class should not remain
longer silent. 1t has thus far relied upon
the present position it occupies, but it
viii be untrue to itself and to the trans
portation conditions that gave it COM
petitiye advantages, if it does not counsel
for defense and present an unbroken
front in opposition TO the effort now put
forth to make San Francisco the only dis
tributing center for the State. Such a
consummation would be of enormous
gain TO the metropolis, but it would be a
staggering blow to the consumers and
producers of the interior, and would blot
out every large mercantile business in
the State outside of San Francisco.

A FEATURE of the government Of Chi
cago is the Corporation Counsel. He is
appointed by the Mayor. A score of
years or more ago man was elected City
Attorney who knew no law and proved
worse than no attorney at all. A COM

new office was created and has ever since
remained, says Julian Ralph in Har-
per's Monthly for April. The new char
ter of Sacramento makes like provision.
1t authorizes the Mayor to select legal
adviser for the city at salary not to ex-
coed $1,000. In times past Sacramento
has paid as high as $4,000 year for spe-

torney and assist in the city's legal bust
