leagues, during the last two years,
have been inundated with letters of in
quiry as to whether tomatoes are an
exciting cause Of cancer. The answer,
which he publishes for the behoof of
such as are anxious on the subject, is
that tomatoes neither predispose to
nor excite cancer formation, and that
they are not injurious to those suffer

trary, are a very wholesome article of

MERRITT ISLAND LBVBE
a Prehistoric Find That Ratified th
Cinnamon Down There.

A Prehistoric Find That Ratified the
Cinnamon Down There.
A gentleman from Merritt Island stated
yesterday to a RECORD UNION reporter
that the breaks in the levee at the upper
end of the island had been closed and
made secure. A dredger was set at work
on the back part of the island and had
worked up on the outside of the Ieyee
till 1t came to the first break, which it
closed. The residents went to work with
teams and scrapers to close the other two
breaks, which they accomplished in good
shape, and none to soon, as the present
rise in the river would have flooded the
island again had the levee not been re-
paired.
1t is thought the Ievee will now stand
any water that is likely to come against it
this spring. and as soon as the river gets
low enough the big pumps will be set at
work to clear the interior of the island
from water so that crops can be put in.
A funny incident occurred while q
gang of Cinnamon were digging a ditch.
the earth from which was used to repair
the levee. They uncovered the skeletons
OF i've Indians, which at some remote
period had been buried there. AS soon
as they realized the nature of the mine
they had struck the whole gang threw
down their shovels, and making a break
for their cabins, locked themselves in.
and utterly refused to return to the spot
until the gruesome relics were removed
and put out of sight.

BEFORE THE GOVERNOR.
Delegates in Behalf of Irrigation Bills
and Other Matters.
Mining Representatives VIII Endeavor
to Interview the Gov
ernor To-Day.

Governor Markham was engaged from
III O'Clock yesterday morning until 8
O'Clock in the afternoon listening to rep
resentatives from irrigation districts and
| bondholders for and against the signing
OF Assembly Bill No. 666, of which Mr..
Mack is the author.
The bill provides that irrigation dis
tricts may disorganize after paying all
Indebtedness if three fifths of the people
OF such districts vote in favor of dissolu-
ton. Although the bill is designed es-
peclally for the relief OF Central Irriga-
uon District in Colusa County, it will
also affect other districts as well.
Attorney Maxwell r. A. Long, GEN
eral Wiley, Il. g. Morton and w. H.
Morrissey and others explained that the
present law governing the irrigation dis
trlcts works a hardship and eats up all
the profits of farmers living in Central
District, and something must be done for
their relief. They hoped the Governor
would sign the bill and relieve the farm
ers from their predicament,
Attorney Wright of Oakland and T. J.
| Clunle OF san francisco, representing a
number of holders of irrigation bonds
claimed that the bill would enable irriga-
tlon districts to disorganize before they
settled their full Indebtedness.
Governor Markham took the matter
under advisement.
THE PUBLIC WORKS BILL.
EX-Mayor Comstock, judge ]. w.
Armstrong, William Beckman and others
were given hearing by Governor Mark
nam yesterday morning. They appeared
IN behalf of the bill TO create a Board of
PubIlc Works. They set forth many
good and substantial reasons whv the
olll should gain the official signature of
tRe Governor, as 1t would be the means
OF retaining thousands of acres of value
less land, which would add millions of
collars to the taxable property of the
State.

THE SHELDON AFFRAY.
Carter and Healy Discharged for I,acI,
of Evidence.

carter and Healy Discharged for Lack
of Evidence.
Assistant District Attorney ]. Charles
Jones went out to Elk Grove Yesterday
to act for the people in the examination
OF j. E. Carter and Joseph Healy. The
former is charged with assault to MUIR
der Jacob Nahl, and the latter is held as
accessory.
The atfray occurred on January 23d,
and was the result of quarrel over dis
puted bill which Carter claimed was due
him from Nahl, and which resulted in
Carter being shot in the leg and NahI
being beaten over the head with a gun
and nearly killed.
Healy was charged with having lent
Garter his gun with which to make the
assault on Nahl. The testimony showed
that the shot which filled Carter's leg
tull of lead from Nahrs gun was acct
dental, and the evidence adduced was
not considered strong enough to hold
either of the defendants, hence they were
both discharged. Carter probably be-
lieves that collecting bills with a shot
gun is not profitable, and it is likely that
Nahl thinks that it is better to compro-
mise than to offer his head to be experi-
mented on with the butt of gun.

The Matter Discussed at Public

A correspondent of the RECORD UNION,
writing from Elk Grove under date Of

On Saturday, the 18th inst, the people
OF Elk Grove and vicinity held meet
ing at Toronto Hall to discuss the FEAST
| bllIty OF forming union high school at
place. The hall was well filed, several
districts being represented by teachers,
trustees and others. Supervisor Jenkins
was chosen Chairman and L. Bower of
Elk Grove Secretary.
Inc meeting was opened by the read
ing of the new law by Professor Riley of
LrankIin. A hot discussion followed.

lt was quite evident that a large ma
Jorlty OF those present were enthusiastic
supporters OF the measure. The argu-
ment was opened by Thomas Mcconnell.
VINO opposed the measure strenuously.
He believed the new high school law
must be unconstitutional, and held that
such step must not be taken hurriedlv.
He did not believe in high schools and
dld not believe in the hie her education of
the masses.
Mr.. Chinnick replied in very spirited
ana intelligent argument.
Mr.. Schelmeyer objected mainly on the
ground of taxation, and that Elk Grove
would receive the most benefit from it.
a number of others participated, and it
was evident that with two such DuLlic-
spirited and energetic men as DR.. Mex kee
and MIR. Chinnick at the head of the
movement, the Union High School of
ELK Grove is thing of the near future.
The meeting closed by appointing the
trustees of Elk Grove and Surrounding
districts as committee to interview the

CENSUS STATISTICS
A Special Agent Is Here to Enforce
Their Collection.

Their Collection.
A. j. Carmany, Special Agent of the
Interior Department, Washington. D, c.,
is here for the purpose of closing up GER
tain census statistics which the local
agents have not been able to complete on
account of the refusal of some establish
ments to answer the necessary questions.
1t seems that when the local census
agent attempted to collect the desired
statistics many business men refused to
give the required information. and Mr..
Carmany has come here to explain mat
ters and enforce the orders of the Gov
ernment.
He says there is no reason for business
men to refuse to comply with the instruc-
uons of the Census Department, as the
information is kept a secret by that de-
partment, and its divulgence can in no
way embarrass citizens.
