Exposure.

Exposure.
LONDON, December 12.-Fourteen
men belonging to the crew OF the
wrecked steamship Dillsberg, were
saved by fishing smack and landed at
Rams Gate last night. The dead body
OF the captain was also landed. The
Dillsberg's mate is among the saved,
SAYS that fearful night was spent
aboard the steamer after she went
ashore There was no pilot hboard,
The water pouring into the hole gained
to rapidly to permit successful use OF
the pumps. Heavy seas continually
washed over the vessel and smashed the
boats while efforts were being made to
launch them. To the vessels signs OF
distress no response seemed to be
made. A particularly heavy wave sud-
denly broke over the vessel at midnight
flooding the forecastle and washing the
crew overheard. One of the men was
afterward washed back and rescued un-
injured. The six others were drowned.
The remainder Of the crew were then
compelled to take to the rigging. The
boats having been destroyed with the
exception of the lifebost, which had a
hole in her bottom. The Captain be-
coming paralyZed aud insane from ex-
posure. The tide receded at baybreak
and the men then took to the lifeboat,
having patched the hole In her bottom
with piece Of tin. They reached the
Kentish Knock lighthouse at 4 o'clock
in the afternoon.

value or is useless-it is simply ques-
ton of common decency in newspaper
work, of ordinary, everyday fair play;
of the right of the reading public to have
the facts laid before it that it may formu-
late its own judgment.
No one questions the right of the edi-
torial sides of these rabidly mad journals
to say what they please and, to draw
their own conclusions; indeed, if lying
is to their mind, it is matter of their
own concern. But the public has a right
to be fairly well informed by sheets it
supports Of proceedings before tribunals
chosen by the people,
1t would seem that these anti-railroad
organs demand that all testimony before
the commission or elsewhere shall be
against the Southern Pacific Company
and its policy. They would appear to be
resolved that the truth concerning the
company shall not be told and if it is,
that 1t shall be kept from the public. The
entire policy of these ravening sheets is
one OF wholesale lying and gross misrep-
resentation; and the venom flows mainly
from people who have been charged with
having been the recipients of the highest
financial favors at the hands of the COM
pany.
One phase Of this matter is very anus
lhazn a.,
are prompted to their rage by an un-
holy animosity to the interior, and to any
and all sections, things and influences
that do not at any and all sacrifices play
into thei hands of the metropolis in its
desire to dominate the trade of the State,
an end Mr.. Isaacs recently made open
confession of, declare with assumed in
dignation that Colonel Morgan has in
suited the intelligence of the people. In
what? In saying that conditions here
justify higher rates of transportation than
obtain under more favorable conditions
elsewhere. Yet though Colonel Morgan
Is said to have fortified his statement by
1rrefutable facts, and to have supported
his judgment by the strongest evidence,
not line of his report or theevidence on
which it is based is given to the public
by his assailants, though at their own re-
quest they were provided with copies.
We are notjudging the experts report,
for the very good reason that we have not
yet seen it; the San Francisco press has
not given it to It's readers though that
news is within the local jurisdiction of
the metropolitan papers, and concerns
public matters in which every inhabitant
of the State has a profound interest 1t is
no wonder that our Eastern friends who
visit the State and are called upon to pass
judgment on the metropolitan journalism
of California, seek shelter from express
sion under the laws of hospitality. Did
they speak the truth as it is apparent to
them, as impartial lockers on, they would
pronounce a verdict that might be
summed up in single sentence, ''It is
devoid of conscience, courtesy and truth"

Drinking Water Said to be Filtered
Through Cemeteries.
The following innocent-appearing little
item of news from yesterdays Marysville
Appeal may possibly have some interest
for people in this city, especially that
class who have thus far succeeded in kill
ing every attempt thus far made here to
get supply of pure water:
The attention Of the public il once again di-
rected 10 the tact that the cemeteries are more
or less under water. They are wholly unpro
tected III the winter time. and it is about time
that some movement should be started to pro-
tect spot SO sacred to all classes The un-
dertakers are often obliged to place the re-
mains OF deceased persons IN vaults until The
water goes down. If some energetic citizens
take the matter in hand the much-needed
want OF a leeve around the City OF the Dead
Will soon be supplied.
If the water of the river is is to be
forced down our throats for any length oi
time hencefOrth, it is sincerity hoped that
the Marysville folks may find some way
of walling in their cemeteries SO that -.

PRINCE LEOPOLD Of Prussia, the second
cousin of the Emperor of Germany who took
part in the recent lOng-distance ride between
Berlin and Vienna, has recovered at last from
the effects of the race. Owing to the courtesy
of Lieutenant Heydt, a contestant, his royal
highness was allowed to reach the goal first
The Lieutenant has been rewarded with an
Imperial decoration for his refusal to pass the
Prince when near Vienna.
And this is called in Germany "cour-
tesy." Out on these western shores, where
men know the distinction between servil-
ity and courtesy, we call 1t rank slavish-
ness. If Prince Leopld had so much manly
pride as would prompt a man to be a
gentleman he would refuse to be crowned
victor by grace Of contestant who could
have defeated him in the race and who is
rewarded for throwing it. No self
respecting American would consent to
be humiliated by having victory given
to him by jockeying. All such procedure
is a concession on the part of ability to
weakness. of manliuess to childishness.

DRIED FRUIT IN DEMAND. sssz
The Past Season Was a Good One for
Orchardists.

The weather during the past season has
been particularly favorable to the dried
fruit men, remarks the Folsom Tele-
graph. The rain did not come to any
great amount until Wednesday last and
they had all the opportunity they could
possibly desire to get their fruit dried
and in. Dried apricots seem to have
taken ride on the wave of popular favor.
and we are informed by prominent
truit-grower that they have all been
shipped to the Eastern States, and that he
did not believe it was possible to secure
thousand pounds of dried apricots in
California to-day. The weather has been
so favorable for the purpose that an
immense quantity of fruit has been dried
and it sells high.

a WITNESS TO THE rRUrH.

Referring to our charge, that the ma
jority of the San Francisco papers are not
newspapers, but that they distort, or sup
press, or misrepresent news to suit their
own purposes, the San Francisco Neacs
Letter says OF the willfuI lying that such
papers have INDUCED in regarding the
Shively case and the Railroad Commits
sioners' proceedings:
The Sacramento RECORD UNION reads
the daily press of this city a deserved
lecture for the manner in which it pub-
fishes biased and garbled reports of the
meetings of the Railroad Commissioners.
1t asserts that three of the leading papers
undisguisedly refuse to report those pro-
ceedings truly, and justly claims that the
public is entitled to a colorless account in
the news columns, irrespective of anv
opinions that may be expressed editori-
ally. The RECORD-UNION is right. It is
not alone the proceedings Of the Railroad
Commissioners that are garbled. There
is not reporter in this city but knows it
is common practice for some news
paper representatives in attendance at
meetings OF various kinds to agree to
burn up" somebody or some member
thereof, and to supply their papers with
not only garbled but absolutely false ac-
counts of the proceedings. 1t it this dis
graceful conduct that has brought much
reproach upon an honorable profession.

of $50 feet of iron is to be put across the
river at once. The work on it has been
commenced in San Francisco.
Major Krusie agreed with the Super

large scow, to be used as a terryboat, has
been begun. The ferry will make trips
at stated hours, which are to be fixed to

ADJUSTMENTS.

A small audience only witnessed Miss
Marlowe's personation of Rosalind Sat
urday night. All we said of the lady's
art on Saturday morning was confirmed
by seeing her as Rosalind. She is. as
Ingersou expressed it, "the personifca-
ton of unconscious grace" But Miss
Marlowe needs to study enunciation.
She is too rapid in utterance. Much OF
the beauty Of Shakespeare's lines are lost
by her rapidity of speech and her lack of
deliberation in reading. Did she but
read more slowly and enunciate dis
tinctly her performance would be greatly
bettered
