do not know that amy special harm is
done. Orthodoxy is a stan to the many,
who without some such support would
be helpless, and so the belief in the mi
raculous power of sanity relics may be
entertained by those who must needs
feed their souls upon superstition.
so far as st. Ann, or Anna, is con-
cerned there is no proof that she was a
person who in her life performed mira
cles, precedent essential to the act of
canonization. According to tradition
she was the mother of Mary, the mother
of Christ, the wife of St. Joachim and
the daughter of a priest of Bethlehem.
But really nothing is known of her life.
She is not mentioned in the Scriptures;
the fathers in the first three centuries of
the Christian Era made no record con-
corning her. st. Epiphanius was the
first to mention her, and that in the
fourth century. She was believed to have
dled In Palestine, and her body is said to
have been transferred to Constantinople
IN 10, and her head to Chartres by Louis
de Blois about 1910. The people of Duren,
of the Duchy of Juliers, claim to have her
head also, and the church at Ursitz lays
claim to third head as the genuine one,
and numerous other churches prefer
similar claims. The church observes her
festival in July with much importance in
some countries, and in her honor the
Fraternity of st. Ann was instituted in
the thirteenth century
Theproo1s concerning the good works
OF st. Ann, which are required to be
made after beatifcation, and must be
sufficient to defeat the aspersions that
the ddUOcatUS did6oR makes. are really
but traditional. They are not founded on
record or other testimony which would
go to-day to a jury with sufficient force
to establish an alleged fact. Much less
and weaker are the proofs that any por-
ton of the body of the mother of Mary
are now in any possession whatever. The
Jews did not, in her time, preserve
bodies with the care previously exer-
cised, and that in this case there was
preservation belief can only rest upon
the faith that there was miraculous in
terposition.
But, as we have said, if faith in tradi-
ton concerning the humble woman of
whom Mary, the mother of Jesus was
born after twenty-one years of barren
ness, lifts up any fainting soul, gives
vigor to the power of the WILL or leads
any in the straight and narrow path after
touching what they believe to be por-
ton Of st. AIMS arm, there is nothing
in it at all to evoke more than mild sur
prise over the scene in New York on
Sunday.

COURAGE AND DISCRETION.
Editor Green Suggests Terms of Com

[Colusa Sun, April 9th.

lColusa Sun, April 9th.l
The San Francisco Bulletin is of the
opinion that the Republican Convention
was powerless to injure the Republican
prospects" but that 1t has done the
party no good" This is not logical. 1t
has either done the party good or else it
has injured it. If its action has been bad,
1t ought To be rebuked; and the rebuke
the Bulletin gives is laughed at as impo-
tent and imbecile. 1t says:
1t is accordingly found that the railroad,
which Is supposed to have received so salutory
a check at the beginning, was really running
the convention. It's hand1work was quite
lerceptible in the platform. There is one sub
ject above all others which now engages the
attention of almost every man in the State;
that is 10 say, the best method of relieving
California from the railroad monopoly which
! is slowly eating oul its viIals. But the con-
Vention had not word in its platform to say
on that question. Clearly it was as deaf as a
post on that side of its head II had heard OF
the merits OF protection. 1t was not in favor
OF free coinage OF silver until il could be
ordered with safety. Its mind went out 10
Chile, TO Italy and Behring Sea- 1t was
mildly conservative on the subject of Chinese
exclusion. 1t did some ''hailing' with glad
hearts over hydraulic mining. Nor did it
wholly forget the rivers and waterways and
wool.
This is sarcastic, but we would like to
inquire what that convention could do to
relieve California of the railroad mo-

then we should have been relieved long
ago.
Now we have proposition to make to
the BHttetiH- -CdU company: Ii these
papers will agree to support the Demo-
cratic ticket provided it puts in the re-
solves strong enough, we viii advocate
the resolution in the language of our
esteemed contemporaries, but ii they will
not agree to this reasonable proposition,
we will insist that the party shall let the
railroad question alone. If no induce
| ments can be held out for such reso-
luton, why antagonize the railroad 4?
There are no Republicans more radically
aDtl-rallroad than our contemporaries,
and if they will not come over on carte
blanche proposition, what considerations
can move the Democratic convention to
play the role of the traditional bull whose
courage was so much admired and whose
Judgment so condemned? Why stand
on the track in front of the engine? We
are willing that the Democratic bull
shall stand on the track taking the
chances Of butting the engine OF, ii
our contemporaries will agree to handle
the brake to break up the force Of the
collision.

THE MIRACULOUS TO-DAY.

There, is not in this day of reason wide
spread faith in miracles performed
through the touch Of holy relics. Waiv-
ing the point that reason demands
proof of the authenticity of the relic of
saint, and the point of doubt that the con-
ferment of post mortem honors by can
onization can give TO a dead human be-
ing spiritual rank, yet there remain the
reasons for non-belief in cures effected
by "holy relics"
Here we have telegraphic accounts that
in New York on Sunday, in stated
church, portions of the arm of st. Ann
were exposed, and that when the halt
touched it they ran like young colts:
when the deaf kissed it they heard: when
the paralytic bowed before it they were
made whole; when the blind pressed
their lips to it their sight was restored to
them. Thus twenty thousand people
filed through the church, and we are told
that many were the cures effected. +.
Faith, the operation of the Imagination,
the power of mind over matter, may, and
do, work wonders. Charlatans by passes,
mediums by spirit influence" So
called, mesmerists, hypnotists, and the
like, perform precisely the same feats.
They, too, make the sick lift themselves
up, and even the well become subjects of
their incantations. There are none of
these se-called miracles that the hypnotic
and mesmeric healers have not paralleled.
1t is all suggestion, ecstatic frenzy, fancy.
the working of the Imagination or the
assertion of the will in superiority over
the physical.

relic of a canonized person really sus-
pends natural laws, and turns the normal
order of things out of their channels, We

THE SEALING QUESTION.
Lord Salisbury Insists on British Rights.
Arbitration Delayed.

LIVERPOOL, Jan. 6-SiT George Baden
Powell, member Of the British Behring Sea
Commission, says Lord Salisbury told him
that he Salisbury wanted to avoid war with
the United States. but at the same time he
wanted to be strong and to show that he is not
going to yield one j3t Of British rights Sir
George said he thought Salisbury finally
brought on the awkward dispute, which
might have resulted in war. II was his con-
vicjion that England would win in the ar
bitTatiOn. The British Commissioners, he
declared, made important investigations, but
the frjendliness they had established with
Americans and Russians would yet ear
fruit All right-thinkiug men ID England
and America, Sir George added, would be
delighted TO find the serious bone Of c0nten-
ton removed.
DELAY IL TIE NEGOTIATIONS.
NEW YORK, Jan. Ca dispatch from
Washington says: When on November
10th OF last year Attorney General Miller
made an announcement before the Supreme
Court of the United States that the basis
FOR RrbItrating the BehTing Sea difficulty
had been reached, he was saying what Of
course was at the time strictly true. An
agreement seemed 10 have been arrived at
as TO the different questions 20 be submitted
10 arbitratOrs What Attorney General
set by demands on the part Of Lord Sails
bury for a further mod ifcation of the agree
ment reached in November. Precisely
what the nature Of these demands is it is
impossible to ascertain just now, but that
they are touching minor points, however,
not heretofore raised by him, seems pretty
certain 50 that in extent they appear frvo-
lous and insiBceTe. rather than baseig upon
sound premises. Indeed, they suggest in an
unpleasant manner the policy OF delay
which has characterized Lord Salisbury's
conduct throughout these negotiations, and
which if it was not intended as such, has
most undoubtedly resulted in serious loss,
financial and otherwise, TO the United States.
There is good reason, however, for believing
that the patience Of this Government is eX-
hausted. 1t would be premature. perhaps,
TO say anything definite at the present time,
but means will not be wanting. when re-
Qaired, 20 compel the more prompt cOnsid-
Grafton of the questions at Issue On the part
Of Lord Salisbury
