chard. The average yield is from 1000 to
!,5OO pounds of cured leaf an acre, hav-
ing an average value, outside of cigar
wrappers, of from 20 to 25 cents pound,
or an acreage profit of from $500 to $500.
Ihe business of tobacco-growing in
california is by no means experimental.
1he only trouble here is that the tobacco
grown in California has too much
strength, condition that may be con-
ttrolled by cultivation. So far. all the to-
bacco from this State exhibited has been
rated superior to anything grown else
where in the United States. The Califor-
ma wrapper tobacco is found to have a
higher value than any produced in
FLORIDA, where 81 a pound has frequently
peen paid Tor an entire crop.
As an evidence OF the esteem in which
California tobacco is held, Mr.. Culp
quoted letter from e. NJ Crawford
President of the New York Tobacco
Board OF Trade, in which the California
product is declared the best substitute for
Havana tobacco. Mr.. Culp said that he
knows of one contract for $4,000 pounds
OF tobacco al 80 cents pound.
BY vote of the members Mr.. Culp's ad-
dress was ordered printed in full.

MNULTY'S METHODS.

a Citizen Makes a Serious Charge
Against the Poundmaster.
J. II. Mcnamara, who resides at Seven
teenth and J. streets. complained that the
Poundmaster had taken his dog from his
yard, declaring he would kill the animal
within twenty-four hours.
The clerk was instructed to summon
McNulty to appear before the board next
Monday and explain his conduct
From the tone of the Trustees remarks
it is safe to say that, unless the Pound
master can show that McNamara's charge
is wholly without foundation, there will
shortly be vacancy in that department
of the city's government. There have
been so many complaints of late regard
ing the management of the Pound that
the Trustees are becoming weary of
listening to them.
There is manifestly something wrong
IN the ordinance governing the Pound
and prescribing the powers of the Pound
master, and it should be corrected. An
ordinance that can be construed to au-
thorize Deputy Poundmaster to assault
citizen with a deadly weapon because
the latter attempted to hold possession of
his COW when the other had no right to
take it, should be resdnded and one
adopted that will recognize citizens
rights in such matters.

REVOKING LICENSES

Judge Buckley W i'll To-day Decide as
to the Trustees Power.
In the case of Biancaline d Perrin, ar
rested for selling liquor after the Board
of Trustees had revoked their license,
Officer Green testified in the Police Court
yesterday that he notified them that their
license was revoked and that if they con-
tinued to sell liquor they would be ar
rested.
w. IL. S. Scott. attorney for the defend
ants, cOntended that, while the law re-
quired ten days publication of an o1di-
nance before it went into effect, that the
license ordinance was to take effect in
eight days after passage. He also argued
that the revocation of the license should
be done under the filing of petition,
which was not done in this case, the
board revoking the license on COM
plant, without hearing both sides.
City Attorney Post said that the ques-
ton of publication had been declared by
the Superior Court to be side issue, and
that an ordinance could, and many did,
take effect Immediately. The ordinance
after providing the manner OF presenting
a petition for revocation of licenses, also
provided that the board could make them
without such petition. The license, he
said, was granted to them under certain
restrictions, and they gave bonds to con-
duct an orderly place They did not do
SC. and their license was revoked, by Il
proper exercise of police regulation. He
quoted the slaug ughter-house cases to slow
That jurisdiction holds in cases of matters
needing such regulation. He thought
there was nothing in the case or in the ar
gument of defendants counsel that
should prevent the court from finding
them guilty.
The court said that a decision in this
case would be an important one, not only
TO the courts. but to the citizens gener-
ally, and that he would prefer to give it
in writing. He would therefore with
hold his decision for one day.

A WAR OF WORDS.
Supervisor Jenkins and Major Gett
Go at Each Other.
A Rumpus Over Two Ffve-DolIar Bills
Against the County-The Super
visor's Economy.

At Yesterdays session of the Board of
Supervisors Mr.. Jenkins caused quite
little breeze by interrupting Major Gett
in one of the latter's oratorical efforts.
The Major was addressing the board
with reference to the claim of Ingham
Sutclltfe for $3.50 damages alleged to have
been sustained through tumbling into the
drainage canal, and he was saying that
the injuries were directly chargeable to
the county, because safety rails had not
been placed along the banks of the canal.
Supervisor Jenkins at this juncture reck-
lessly cut the Major off with the remark
that this was Finance day." and outside
matters were barred.
Major Gett glared at the Supervisor
and everybody expected to see the latt er
shrivel up and blow away-but he didn't.
Instead, he reiterated his declaration that
Gett should shut up. Then the Major
turned loose his batteries, and the two
had 1t hot for some time. After the smoke
of the battle had cleared off Jenkins was
proclaimed the victor, for he succeeded in
having the Majc put off until tomorrow.
Mr.. Jenkins also kicked up a row DUR
ing the session over a s. bill presented by
Dan Healy for removing a glandered
horse. The Supervisor declared that the
claim was not a legal one and he moved
that it be rejected. There was no second
to the motion, however, so it was not
voted upon.
Nothing daunted, Mr.. Jenkins went
after bill of s. presented by the River
side Dairy for milk furnished the chain
gang. He said he would stop the pillag-
ing of the County Treasury or throw up
his job. He then took the bin over to the
Sheritf's office, and. finding that nobody
knew who ordered the milk, he went
back to the board and moved that the bill
be rejected. The motion was carried.
The rest of the day was taken up in the
examination of bills against the county.
The board adjourned to meet again this
morning.

ARARE OPPORTUNITY
Good Agricultural Land for $40
to $50 per Acre.

The Pacific Improvement Company has re-
Gently 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
land of fair average quality, and is offered at
from SO to $40 per acre, in subdivisions of
40, 80, 12o, 160 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 paw
ment of interest only for three years, at which
time the purchaser can begin the payment of
principal by paying the first of five equal an
nual installments. Thus no part of the prin-
cipaI is to be paid for three years, and then
the purchaser is to have five years in which to
pay five equal annual instalments, with in
terest at the rate of z per cent per annum,
making payments extending over period of
eight years. Intending purchasers are as
sured that this is an opportunity to purchase
land of fair average quality at SO per acre.
and good agricultural land at $50 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-
pecially adapted for fruitgrowing, cannot be
had in California for less than from $50 to
800 an acre. An examination of the land
subject of this advertisement will prove to
home-seekers that this is an opportunity for
the purchase of good agricultural land at $40
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 to actual settlers result easy of
accomplishment.
The primary object of the purchase, of this
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.

dress VIM, H MILLS

Retrospection.

Much time is spent, and good deal
of it wasted, by the inmates of this and
other like institutions in forming reso-
buttons for the future. All their
thoughts are for the time to come, not
a minute for the past. Castle building
without foundation, the writer has
noticed results in many cases similar
to those obtained in Chicago during
the past summer by the builders Of
several Worlds Fair hotels, the storms
came, the winds blew, and they col
lapsed. Investigation proved in each
instance that the foundations were in
feriOr and totally inadequate to sup
port the burden intended for them by
the architect. Thus it is with many of

in the case of a large proportion that
they have never Jared so well, dressed so

of mind, since they cut loose from par
entail guidance, as they did down on the
farm? Most of them, with their "good
