The backbone of the railway strike at
Buffalo has practically broken. What
ever of justice there may have been in
the demands of the strikers was beaten
down by the insane action of the men.
They assumed the right to dictate to other
men that they should not work, and to
enforce the dictation by arms and vio-
lence; they assumed the right to declare
that men should not conduct their bust
ness without their consent, or, as one of
the leaders put it, "should not run trains
in defiance of the rules Of our organiza-
ton" There is but one Government in
the United States, and the attempt to set
up another within it and superior to its
laws, but which at the same time invokes
and has the protection of such laws, is an
act of such insanity and folly as to amaze
the ordinary intelligence. The assault in
all this strike business has been by labor
against labor; capital does not much
suffer, since it will recover damages for
All IL HAS 1OSl. LIE men VINO wanted to
work and were menaced by those who re-
fused to work have been the chief suf-
ferers on the one side, and the strikers on
the other. Organized labor has itself re-
fused to actively support the cause of the
strike, and thus another lesson has been
taught of the utter folly of attempting to
drive men in this free land They may
be persuaded, but they will not by force
Of arms be driven to support any cause.
Labor interests have been hurt seriously
in all this matter, and by workers them
selves. 1t will take a long time for re-
covery, but let us hope that the lesson
will not be without benefit, and that it
will in the end inure to the good of the
wage-earner and prevent him from resort
ing to means to secure his ends that are
condemned alike by the law, humanity
and the common judgment of mankind.

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

Inc Pacific Improvement Company has re-
centy 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
Isno OF fair average quality, and is offered at
from $40 to $50 per acre, in subdivisions OF
30, so, 40, 100 and $50 acres
The terms upon which these lands are offered
are especially attractive. They will be sold in
Subdivisions, as above indicated by the oev-
mens Of interest only tor three years at which
tiEie the purchaser can begin the payment of
principal by paying the first Of five equal an
nuRl tnstellments. Thus no part OF the prIp-
cipsl IS TO be paid for three years, and then
the purchaser is TO have NE years In which 10
pay I'VE equal annual installments. with in
tereat at the rate of Z per cent. per annurn,
making payments extending over a period of
eight years. Intending purchasers are as
sured that this is an opportunity 20 purchase
land of fatr average quality at SO per acre.
and good agricultural land at $40 an 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-
peclaIly adapted for fruit-growing, cannot be
hao in California for less than from SEQ TO
800 an acre. An examination Of the land
subject Of this advertisement will prove to
ho'ne-seekers that this is opportunity for
the purchase Of good agricultural land at $50
an acre, and for qualities grading down TO fair
agricultural land at $40 an acre, on terms of
payment which should make the disposition
of these lands 10 actual settlers result easy Of
accomplishment.
The primary object of the purchase OF thia
BODY of land was the breaking up of a large
holding for the purpose of promoting its set
tlement in smaller quantities and its devotion
TO diligent husbandry.

THE CHOLERA ADVANCE.

The cholera has reached; Havre, on the
French coast of the English Channel. 1t
Is in Hamburg, and spreading with
alarming rapidity., With Havre and
Hamburg we have very frequent and in
innate communication by several lines of
steamers. From Havre to the English
coast it is but short distance, and the
communication by steamer and ship is
almost constant. We may escape because
we are more remote, but the probability
OF the plague speedily entering England
is very great.
The Government of the United States
has taken steps already to secure exam
lnation of ships prior TO their entering
our ports, and if they hail from places
where the cholera has developed, the YES
sci will be auarantined and cleaned. But
quarantine is not by any means insurance
against the introduction of the dis
ease. At the very best it is
but precautionary measure against
| direct passage of the plague. When
| it once reaches a coast it passes on,
| In many cases, by indirect means. Just
what they are no one knows. Letters
may be infected, goods for domestic use
! convey the germs OF Tie disease; it E!ay
pass upon the wings of the wind, for it
certainly often appears al tl.3 LIST i;nex-
pected points, bit in such cases the
place assailed Is in a country that has
frst received the cholera upon its bor-
der. There are many instances where It
was successfully confined to quarantine
SO far as the coasts were concerned, but
leaped beyond them and ravaged interi-
ors.
The proper thing for the people of the
United States to do is to make ready.
They can do no wiser sanitary thing
than to take every known means for pre-
yention of the introduction of the disease.
The chief Of these means is cleanliness.
1t is, indeed, nine points of safety out of
ten to cleanse the house, the street, the
alley, the drains and especially all places
at all liable to accumulate filth. Cholera
seeks a footing in the unclean town, and
mostly avoids the spot where thorough
sanitary precautions have been taken.
We ought to need no greater incentive to
prepare for possible invasion by the pest
than the recital of the fact that in two
weeks time it has marched across the
continent of Europe and now threatens
us from the west shores of France.

"One Of the queerest RAILROADS any
where in the country" said Rev. ID. ).
Banks, of North Ontario, "is a novel
line that runs from South Ontario up to
North Ontario, IN San Bernardino Coun-
ty, California, where live. The line is
seven miles long. A span of stout
mules draw tie car up over the road.
There is nothing singular about that, but
it comes in ON the return trip.
"The seven miles are on a tilt all the
way, although the track does not look
the mules get on and take ride, the
car booming over the whole line by
gravity. The mules enjoy it, too.
They ride there in as self-satisfied a way
as any other passengers, aud the view
seems equally as charming. North On-
tario, you may know, is situated at the
mouth of San Antonio canyon, but there
are lot otmagniicent mountains around
there. One colony, for they can scarce
ly be called towns, is situated on the
Santa Fe road and the other on
the Southern Pacific. 1t is the
seven miles of street railway that con.
meet the two.
"The way they get the mules aboard
is this; There is little truck under
the car, and it is pulled out, becoming
an adjunct to the regular passenger de.
pertinent. The moment the truck is
slid out the intelligent animals make a
start for 1t and step up and on. 1t is
extremely amusing the way they do il,
aud the way they enjoy this ride, and
they are great fayorites with the people. V

She started, as she looked up, and saw
Bessie Barrett standing so near her. She
was a slim, brown-haired little thing, OF
about seventeen. She was clad in an ILL

Her eyes were large, gray, just now very

quite black. The delicate features had a
pinched look, and the pretty lips were
paler than should be the lips of one SO
young.
