A sEAsoNABLE COMPARISON.

The arrest and conviction, of two
French spies in Germany is another in
dication of the truth that all Europe is
but great military camp. The peace of
the continent is the peace of fear, COW and
surveillance-there is in it nothing of the
elements of confidence, trust and respect,
save the respect that the soldier Of the
ruler commands.
In fact, the whole European system is
one of espionage, fear, distrust, and by
each secret watching and constant plot
ting for advantage at the others throat.
Germany Furnishes the French spy caught
within her lines, but at the same time she
has a small army of spies in all the ma
tions of Europe.
The German War Office has complete
maps, plats, designs and elaborate de-
scriptions and pictures of every arsenal,
naval station and ship, every magazine,
fort and esrthwork, barrack and arms
factory of every nation of the eastern
hemisphere. These plans are revised, as
the need is, from day to day, and the chief
information to that end is gained through
the agency of secret service spies main
tanned in every nation of Europe by the
German War Department. And the same
may be said of the other Old World
powers.
1t is said that Emperor William will
save the French spies from the extreme
penalty. 1t is wisdom on his part to do
so; it is bid in advance for mercy to his
own men when detected within the lines
of his neighbors, as some of them are
likely to be.
All which emphasizes the folly and in
justice of system that renders such con-
ditions necessary. 1t breaches anew and
loudly of the unfitness of the aristocratic
system to the present, and foretells
the day when it will be known no more.
Let Us make comparison: Here we
have republic of sixty-five millions of
people governed by no claim of divine
right, ruled over by none of the Lords
anointed; nation of people with but
26,00O soldiers, barely enough to take care
of our small property at our few military
posts, and do at rare intervals little
frontier guard duty. a nation that en-
vies no other her possessions and covets
the goods of no man: people free, secure
in person, property and all human
rights without the aid of bayonets, and
not knowing surveillance, cow or police
espionage; impelled by no ambitions to
seize upon the property of another, or
compass the humiliation of any other
power; q nation without spies, at peace
with all the world, without fear on the
one hand or secret design upon the other.
On the other hand, we have the old
world with its glories of art, its triumphs
of architecture, it's victories of civiliza-

ton. its romance of history, its magnifi-
cence of royalty, its vast navies and mar
yelous military system, its wealth, intel
hgence, supremacy in mechanic arts and
wonderful advance in the sciences-but
all great military camp, with suspicion
on guard, spies on every hand, distrust
ruling, covetousness and political greed
at the reins. ambition for conquest domi-
nant, and secret hate ill-concealed be-
meath seeming of courtly demeanor; a
people impressed to arms, citizenship
under surveillance, enjoying freedom in
the bonds of censorship and with bayo-
net at the throat of conscience.
OF these two which comes nearest to-
day to the ideal OF the preaching of the
seasons sermon, peace on earth, good
will toward menu?

THE DAY.

Christmas has long since outgrown the
religious bounds that made it church
festival. Though it has become an almost
universal holiday among the advanced
peoples of the world, it has not lost its
Christian character-it has simply broad
ened in its all embracing gentleness and
human interest, until the season it
ushers in has come to be that of univer-
sal relaxation Of hard lines, a time of
sympathy and kindness and joy, and Of
the strengthening of the bonds of love
and forging anew Of the links of affection
and friendship. We hail it welcome then
for the forgiving and gentle spirit with
which it invests the hearts of men. We
give it greeting with open arms as the
guest whose coming brings blessings and
charity and loving kindness; we open
wide the doors of the heart to it. for it
fills the season with benefits that are not
measured by gold or valued by price. To
the people, friends and all others, the
RECORD UNION sends the greeting and
the heartfelt wish Merry Christmas"

THAT FISH LADDER.
The One That Has Not Been Con
Srructed at Folsom.

The One That Has Not Been Con-
structed at Folsom.
The Folsom Telegraph keeps pelting
away at the Fish Commissioners for their
neglect to construct fish-way past the
big dam on the American river near that
place. The last issue contains the follow
ing:
ut seems to us that the State Board OF
Fish Commissioners are sadly neglectfu
the performance of their duty in the
building of fish ladder over the dam.
They cannot plead ignorance of the ex-
| lstence of an impediment to the progress
OF the fish up the river. They have been
notified several times. Only recently a
large petition was sent to them request
ing that they remedy the matter COM
planned OF. They have paid no attention
whatever to the request, and the people
are compelled to sit down and see thous-
ands of fish reach the big dam that bars
their way up the river, which, after en-
tering the boiling, seething waters at its
| base, are churned to death. The fish that
are thus destroyed rot and contaminate
the river and air with their foul, disease
breeding smell.
The fact is, in certain seasons of the
year, the big Folsom dam is a genuine
and emphatic nuisance, and it will be un-
III fish ladder is constructed there.
There Is no excuse for this criminal neg
lect of their plain duty on the part of the
Fish Commissioners. Perhaps there is a
pulp somewhere. If there is, the people
are certainly not the ones who are hold
ing the string. The people are getting
very tired of this willful neglect on the
part of the Fish Commissioners, which
body should resign or act in the matter
1t would not be bad idea to have the
next Legislature investigate this fish
ladder business.
1--WE hope that the gentlemen who COM
pose the commission will explain their
delay. There certainly must be some
good reason for it. We feel sure that if
there was not, the ladder would be up
there now. For unless the board has q
good reason they would not ignore the
necessity of a fish ladder, which need is
admitted by everyone who has been up
at the big DAM"

ALL honor to Governor Mitchell of
Florida. He announces that the Corbett-
Mitchell prize-fight shall not take place
in Florida. He has issued a proclama-
ton directing all Sheritfs and peace Off
GERS to be alert and prevent the fight, and
promises them military assistance if
needed. The promoters of the fight de-
clare that they will 60 on with the affair,
because it is not to be prize-fight but a
scientific glove contest" What trump
cry! If it were known that it is to be
anything less than a prize-fght, with
thin gloves that are really aggravations
and worse than bare knuckles, no in
terest would be felt in the match by low
ers of the brutal sport.

THE Carson Ne0S thinks there is a
deep-seated prejudice against the State of
Nevada among the people east Of the
Rocky Mountains. This is error; there
is not prejudice, but lack Of information,
much misinformation about Nevada
and honest judgement based on misap-
prehension. By advertising her resources
and showing the capabilities of the State
this misinformation may be removed.
Prejudice implies unreasonable judg-
ment and bias, and this is not, we appre-
hend. the case in this particular instance,
since the people lack information that
Nevada alone can give them.

AN UNsoLvED PROBLEM

Probably score of times in the last
year the question has been asked the
RECoRD-UNIoN "What is electricity?"
The last of the inquirers has asked why
it is that no satisfactory reply is made,
not even by the elaborate treatise to
which most inquirers have been re-
ferred.
The truth is that the reason for the in
adequate replies is due to the nom agree
ment of the scientists because of ignor-
ance that still prevails concerning this
natural agency now so much employed.
The Electrical World, high authority,
frankly admits this, and to much specu-
lation upon the subject, replies that the
mystery surrounding the nature Of cleo
tricity is not more inexplicable than that
which invests gravitation, heat, light
and chemical action. Who is there to-
day can give US satisfactory explanation
of the mechanism of these phenomena?
Yet for centuries the effort has been made
to dispel the mystery surrounding these,
and it may be that for centuries to come
we will know very little more definitely
and conclusively concerning the nature
of electricity.
The Electrical World upon this subject
says:
! Assuming what seems to be unquestioned,
| that electricity, electrical action or whatever
we may call it, has its seat in the atoms or
! molecules of matter, or of the Hypothetical
| matter, ether, we are brought face TO face with
| the same conditions that confront the cos
m1cal philosopher. AS the latter can never
| hope to have his material vision extend to the
! bounds Of the universe, neither can the mole
cular physicist hope to materially appreciate
the ultimate elements of matter. Lord kel-
vim has shown that If drop of water were
magnified to the size of the earth, one of its
constituent molecules would only be magnI-
fed to approximately the size of a cricket
| ball. Bearing this in mind. the immensely of
| the problem which is so often fiippantly re-
ferred to is evident. True, we may demon
strate the exact relation between electricity
and magnetism, and may satisfactorily con-
meet these with other phenomena, and even
obtain a working hypothesis that will answer
all scientific needs, but the ultimate solution
may forever evade the human mind.

Some shrewd observers IRE inclined to be-
licyc that Commissioner Days crusade III The
Cr.ton Valley i. chiefly intended 10 divert at
,ention for the time from the filthy condition
of the city streets. PestiIence threatens the
METROPOLIS in every quarter from the unswept
thoroughfares. In many parts Of the town the
air is heavy with foul odos and clogs the
lungs with poison. Mayor Gilroy shows no
resolnte determination 10 compel the street
Cleaning Department to do its work thorough
". viii an appeal 10 Mr.. Croker do any good
Mr.. Croker can bring almost anything to pass
i'm this town. The poolroOmS remained open
until the nod Of the autocIat shut their doors.
The Police Department and the Distric'-At-
toineys Office displayed no genuine zeal IN
trying to suppress the poolrooms until Mr..
Croker became heavily interested in raceh0rses
and thoroughbred stock. and entered into 50
intimate relations with leading turfmen that it
was plainly for his advantage that the pOol-
rooms should be closed. Then the rooms were
closed, and they have remained closed.
Mr. Croker holds the city government in the
hollow Of his hand. Ills will is law in every
department Of the municipal service. Cannot
the afflicted people Of Ncw-Yorll persuade him
to give them clean streets? Every one knows
that Mayor Gilroy is merely Mr.. Cookers pup
pet, and that no relief is to be expected from
the Mayor unless Mr.. Croker gives the word.
Does the all powerful autocrat of the metropO-
lis realize the full extent Of his responsibility
in this matter? lie can save the city from the
thousands Of cases of disease and death which
must result from the corruption in the streets
unless the Street Cleaning Department is com
PEELED promptly To do its full duty. Sending
Commissioner DAILY on cowboy raids into West

streets and remove the rottenness with which
they are now reeking The citizens of New
